Silent token refresh fails with "The Authorization Server requires End-User consent"

[pvsr]

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug? Bug, I believe.

What is the current behavior? I'm trying to set up silent refresh using Hydra, hydra-login-consent-node, and oidc-client-js's sample vanilla js app. I log in and allow access, checking "remember me" for both. At this point if I try to get a new token, I am able to skip both login and consent. However, if I try to use prompt=none, the login part succeeds, but instead of the auth endpoint redirecting to the consent page, I get redirected back to the app with an error: "The Authorization Server requires End-User consent" and "OAuth 2.0 Client is marked public and requires end-user consent but "prompt=none" was requested".

What is the expected behavior? If consent is already remembered, I would expect to be able to proceed through the process and get a new token. The spec says "[consent_required] MAY be returned when the prompt parameter value in the Authentication Request is none, but the Authentication Request cannot be completed without displaying a user interface for End-User consent". But in this case, the consent challenge would return {"skip": true}, so I don't think there's any need to display a user interface.

Which version of the software is affected? Beta 9.

This is most likely a bug in your login & consent logic or your auth flow. Maybe you're requesting other permissions or forgot to properly accept the consent part. Silent refresh is supported and tested and certified by the OpenID Foundation.

@pvsr Did you figure this out?

I'm having the same issue.

I was experiencing the same problem. For me it was solved after adding Remember=true value into consent accept request:

       consent.HandledConsentRequest{
        GrantedScope: grantedScopes,
        Session:      &consent.ConsentRequestSessionData{},
        Remember:     true,
        RememberFor:  3600,
    }
