WCF - Cannot find a token authenticator for X509Se

问题:

I'm trying to call a 3rd party webservice and I've gotten to the point where I can actually see a response from the server in the Service Trace Viewer. However, I keep getting an exception from .NET:

Cannot find a token authenticator for the 'System.IdentityModel.Tokens.X509SecurityToken' token type. 
Tokens of that type cannot be accepted according to current security settings.

My app.config looks like this (Thumbprints replaced by placeholders):

<system.serviceModel>
<behaviors>
  <endpointBehaviors>
    <behavior name="OteBehavior">
      <clientCredentials>
        <serviceCertificate>
          <authentication certificateValidationMode="None"/>
          <defaultCertificate findValue="<ThumbprintPlaceholder1>" x509FindType="FindByThumbprint" storeLocation="CurrentUser" storeName="TrustedPeople"/>
        </serviceCertificate>
        <clientCertificate findValue="<ThumbprintPlaceholder2>" x509FindType="FindByThumbprint"/>
      </clientCredentials>
    </behavior>
  </endpointBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<bindings>
  <customBinding>
    <binding name="MyBinding">
      <textMessageEncoding messageVersion="Soap11" />
      <security authenticationMode="CertificateOverTransport"
                messageSecurityVersion="WSSecurity10WSTrust13WSSecureConversation13WSSecurityPolicy12BasicSecurityProfile10"
                requireSecurityContextCancellation="false"
                enableUnsecuredResponse="true"
                allowSerializedSigningTokenOnReply="true">

      </security>
      <httpsTransport maxBufferPoolSize="2147483646" maxBufferSize="2147483646" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483646" requireClientCertificate="true" />
    </binding>
  </customBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
  <endpoint address="https://example.com:1443/xxx/someService/"
    binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="MyBinding"  behaviorConfiguration="OteBehavior"
    contract="ReportGasService.ReportGas" name="ReportGasEndpoint" />
</client>

Now, I've tried everything I could find regarding this exception.

1. Setting authenticationMode to MutualCertificate: Server responds 404
2. Setting allowSerializedSigningTokenOnReply: No change

The reponse from the server contains:

<ds:KeyInfo Id="KI-1DE4B371623632132E1468838210413180294">
    <wsse:SecurityTokenReference wsu:Id="STR-1DE4B271123632132E1468838710413180295">
        <wsse:Reference URI="#X509-1DE4B271523632132E1468833710413180293" ValueType="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-x509-token-profile-1.0#X509v3"></wsse:Reference>
    </wsse:SecurityTokenReference>
</ds:KeyInfo>

Can I add the x508SecurityToken handler somewhere or otherwise ignore this error (is it safe to do so)

Does the above mean that it is serverside?

回答1:

I found the solution:

1. Change authenticationMode="CertificateOverTransport" to authenticationMode="MutualCertificate"
2. Use MessageSecurityVersion.WSSecurity10WSTrustFebruary2005WSSecureConversationFebruary2005WSSecurityPolicy11BasicSecurityProfile10
3. In the generated client, add ProtectionLevel = ProtectionLevel.Sign to the ServiceContractAttribute. This avoids having the body encrypted.

I'm still not all the way through, but I believe it is merely a matter of getting the right certificate from the provider.

For others, here is how I create my proxy:

var binding = new BasicHttpsBinding();
binding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.Certificate;
var address = new EndpointAddress(new Uri("https://xxx/yyy/someService/"));
binding.Security.Message.ClientCredentialType = BasicHttpMessageCredentialType.Certificate;

var securityElement = SecurityBindingElement.CreateMutualCertificateBindingElement(MessageSecurityVersion.WSSecurity10WSTrustFebruary2005WSSecureConversationFebruary2005WSSecurityPolicy11BasicSecurityProfile10, true);
securityElement.IncludeTimestamp = true;

var customBinding = new CustomBinding(binding);
customBinding.Elements.Insert(0, securityElement);
var client = new ReportGasClient(customBinding, address);

client.ClientCredentials.ClientCertificate.SetCertificate(StoreLocation.CurrentUser, StoreName.My, X509FindType.FindByThumbprint, "BCC3929F9C115D4BCA1C697E2557B7FC7D6C8C8C");
client.ClientCredentials.ServiceCertificate.Authentication.CertificateValidationMode = X509CertificateValidationMode.None;
client.ClientCredentials.ServiceCertificate.SetDefaultCertificate(StoreLocation.CurrentUser, StoreName.TrustedPeople, X509FindType.FindByThumbprint, "87C3B5EE3913937459D2FFBF105ADBD1A578E823");

Please note I set the ValidationMode to None only in the sandbox environment. This should never be used in production.

Your values for findValue attribute are both incorrect. You should be putting the specific thumbprint value for the corresponding client-side certificates in the app.config.

You can view the certificate thumbprint values via the Certificates MMC add-in.

I would also double-check that client-side X509 certificates are required as normally, they are only required for server-side operation.
