Validate subject tokens from external OIDC issuers

[jhrozek]

Summary

Token exchange (#5812, #5813) currently only accepts subject tokens that the embedded authorization server issued itself. To let agents act on behalf of users authenticated by an external IdP (Keycloak, Entra, Okta), the AS needs to validate subject tokens from trusted external OIDC issuers — the trust-model groundwork for the federated token-exchange path in #5194.

This PR adds that validation, but deliberately does not enable it in production: factory.go still constructs the self-issued validator, so external tokens remain unreachable until the delegation-consent gate (#5989) lands. A TODO(#5989) on the type documents the constraint.

• Extract a SubjectTokenValidator interface; rename the concrete self-issued type to SelfIssuedTokenValidator (accept interfaces, return structs).
• Add MultiIssuerTokenValidator: routes self-issued tokens to the existing validator, and validates external-issuer tokens by resolving the issuer's JWKS.
• JWKS caching with a 5m TTL; OIDC-discovery fallback when no JWKSURL is configured.
• SSRF-safe fetching: HTTPS-only, per-hop redirect scheme checks, resolved-IP checks that reject private/loopback/link-local addresses, response-body size caps, and a key-count cap.
• Fail loudly if a TrustedIssuer is configured without an ExpectedAudience.

Closes #5814

Type of change

• New feature

Test plan

• Unit tests (task test) — not run locally; run in CI
• Manual testing (build + vet)

New multi_issuer_validator_test.go covers issuer routing, JWKS caching/expiry, OIDC discovery fallback, SSRF rejection (private/loopback IPs, non-HTTPS), oversized responses, and the empty-ExpectedAudience guard. Locally go build ./... and go vet ./pkg/authserver/... are green.

Does this introduce a user-facing change?

No. The validator is not wired into the token endpoint in this PR — external subject tokens are not accepted until #5989 adds the consent model and enables it in factory.go.

Special notes for reviewers

• Inert by design. The validator is unreachable in production until Consent model for external OIDC subject tokens in multi-issuer token exchange #5989. This split keeps the diff reviewable and mirrors how Add RFC 8693 token exchange handler to the embedded AS #5812/Wire the token exchange handler into the fosite compose pipeline #5813 were staged. Please do not ask to wire it into factory.go here — external tokens carry no client_id, so checkDelegationConsent would fail them closed, and enabling them without the consent gate is a confused-deputy (CWE-863) risk.
• Focus areas: the SSRF controls in NewMultiIssuerTokenValidator's HTTP client (DialContext IP checks + CheckRedirect), and the JWKS cache locking in resolveJWKS.

Reviewed with a focus on the SSRF surface and token-validation correctness. The security-critical design is sound and — importantly — I confirmed the feature is genuinely inert: factory.go still constructs only NewSelfIssuedTokenValidator, and NewMultiIssuerTokenValidator is referenced nowhere in non-test code, so the external-issuer path is unreachable until the #5989 wiring lands. TODO(#5989) points at a tracked open issue. Approving on that basis.

Verified correct:

• DNS-rebinding defense is real — DialContext resolves, rejects if any resolved IP is disallowed, then dials the vetted IP directly (no re-resolve/TOCTOU). isDisallowedIP covers loopback/link-local/private/unspecified across IPv4+IPv6, so 169.254.169.254 is blocked.
• Redirects re-check HTTPS per hop and re-run the IP check via DialContext; body reads are io.LimitReader-capped on both discovery and JWKS; maxJWKSKeys cap + empty-set rejection.
• Token path: signature verified against issuer JWKS before any claim is trusted; issuer-of-record from config (not the token body); audience enforced; exp/nbf checked; allowedSignatureAlgorithms excludes none and HMAC (no alg-confusion). Fail-closed on empty ExpectedAudience, unknown issuer, and all error paths.

Two should-fix items before this is wired up in #5989 (safe to land here or there — not exploitable while inert):

1. The SSRF controls have no test coverage. Every test sets insecureSkipJWKSURLValidation = true, so validateJWKSURL, isDisallowedIP, the dial-time IP check, and the redirect scheme re-check are never exercised. Please add tests (flag left false) asserting refusal of: an http:// JWKS URL, a discovery doc whose jwks_uri resolves to loopback/link-local/IPv6, and a 302 redirect to a private IP. This is security-critical code that can currently regress silently.
2. isDisallowedIP misses CGNAT 100.64.0.0/10. net.IP.IsPrivate() doesn't include it, so a hostile trusted-issuer discovery doc could point jwks_uri at e.g. Alibaba metadata 100.100.100.200. Add an explicit 100.64.0.0/10 check (consider 192.0.0.0/24, 198.18.0.0/15 too).

Minor nits (optional): the initial hop (configured IssuerURL/preconfigured JWKSURL) isn't HTTPS-checked — only discovered URLs are — so an http:// issuer config downgrades to cleartext on the first request; and ips[0] at the end of DialContext would panic on the (practically unreachable) empty-non-error LookupIPAddr result — a len(ips)==0 guard is cheap.

Heads-up unrelated to this PR: main is currently red from a nil-panic in pkg/vmcp/client (a #5990 struct-literal test hitting the new #5980 resolveAuthStrategy path), so your Test Go Code gate may fail on that until main is fixed — it's not from anything here.
