[keycloak-dev] Cross-DC and codeToToken request

[Schuster Sebastian (INST/ESY1)]

Another argument against providing claims in the code is that it can be stolen by rogue mobile apps and PKCE does not help here as it only prevents using stolen codes. Encrypting the code could help, but this might also have impact on code size. Maybe it is best to first try the on-demand replication approach and see if it nails it before introducing another configuration switch that could be set wrong and the associated code?

Best regards,
Sebastian
