My app gets an AUTH_USER request header with username from Oracle Access Manager SSO. Spring Security "Additional Topics" 2.2.1 has an example of "PreAuth" that seems to be what I need, but not a full working example.
Snippets below are from docs/examples, not working annotation-based configuration.
Siteminder Example Configuration - using XML with a RequestHeaderAuthenticationFilter and PreAuthenticatedAuthenticationProvider and a UserDetailsService to lookup users.
How does this map to Java-based config?
<security:http>
<!-- Additional http configuration omitted -->
<security:custom-filter position="PRE_AUTH_FILTER" ref="siteminderFilter" />
</security:http>
<bean id="siteminderFilter" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.preauth.RequestHeaderAuthenticationFilter">
<property name="principalRequestHeader" value="AUTH_USER"/>
<property name="authenticationManager" ref="authenticationManager" />
</bean>
<bean id="preauthAuthProvider" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.preauth. PreAuthenticatedAuthenticationProvider">
<property name="preAuthenticatedUserDetailsService">
<bean id="userDetailsServiceWrapper"
class="org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.UserDetailsByNameServiceWrapper">
<property name="userDetailsService" ref="userDetailsService"/>
</bean>
</property>
</bean>
<security:authentication-manager alias="authenticationManager">
<security:authentication-provider ref="preauthAuthProvider" />
</security:authentication-manager>
The Spring Security preauth example has a completely different setup (the XML config is even more intimidating). No mention of the pre-auth filter or how to set the header name.
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvcSecurity
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/login","/resources/**").permitAll()
.anyRequest().authenticated()
.and()
.jee()
.mappableRoles("USER","ADMIN");
}
}
The spring-boot-sample-web-secure extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter instead of WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter, and just does basic form-based logins, no info on how to get userid from pre-auth AUTH_USER header.
public class SampleWebSecureApplication extends WebMvcConfigurerAdapter {
... omitted...
@Bean
public ApplicationSecurity applicationSecurity() {
return new ApplicationSecurity();
}
@Order(SecurityProperties.ACCESS_OVERRIDE_ORDER)
protected static class ApplicationSecurity extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
@Autowired
private SecurityProperties security;
@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http.authorizeRequests().anyRequest().fullyAuthenticated().and().formLogin()
.loginPage("/login").failureUrl("/login?error").permitAll();
}
}
}
I've read many references/articles but they do not seem to related to current code and Spring-boot, so stuck trying to understand how to configure the app pre-auth security.
