OAuth enables a third-party application to obtain limited access to a
protected resource, either on behalf of a resource owner by
orchestrating an approval interaction or by allowing the third-party
application to obtain access on its own behalf. This document defines
how an application client uses credentials obtained via OAuth over the
Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) to access a protected
resource at a resource server. Thereby, it enables schemes defined
within the OAuth framework for non-HTTP-based application protocols.
Clients typically store the user's long-term credential. This does,
however, lead to significant security vulnerabilities, for example,
when such a credential leaks. A significant benefit of OAuth for usage
in those clients is that the password is replaced by a shared secret
with higher entropy, i.e., the token. Tokens typically provide limited
access rights and can be managed and revoked separately from the
user's long-term password.
