My application is integrated with WSO2 Identity Server 5.3 with SAML 2.0 using spring security saml extention, and working fine. Now I need to print user's IP address in the logs of WSO2 Identity server. Any idea how to achieve this?
Note: I have created custom authenticator and custom user store to customize the authentication process.
Solved the problem by extending BasicAuthenticator. This class has a method with parameter HttpServletRequest. Rest was easy, I got the IP and other client information and called a web services to save the same in DB.
protected void processAuthenticationResponse(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response, AuthenticationContext context)

How can use WSO2 (5.11) IS to generate JWT with information stored on server that is not WSO2 that is used for autnetication? My use case is to login user via WSO2 IS, but the actual authentication will happen on a different server, not WSO2. In turn this server upon authenticating the user, will call WSO2 to generate JWT with custom data that it sends. If I understand this post correctly, I need to create local authenticator, is this the approach I should take in my use case?
Moreover, if this approach is possible, will I be able to use WSO2 SSO to allow user to access applications on remote server, or is WSO2 SSO strictly for applications running on WSO2 server itself?
Since you need to connect to some external store using REST API, you can write some custom local authenticators and deploy into Identity servicer. You can implement the custom local authenticator to call your store using some REST API and authenticate the user.

There is any webservice providing by WSO2 Identity server, to remove a session for specific user to specific ServiceProvider?
I am using SAMLSSO for many web application and they all are integrating with WSO2 server.
Now let's say scenario is,User is login with 2 application at the same time. I want to logout it from one application.
There is one service provided by logout and it's providing single logout and session will be remove for all application. There is webservice provided by IS or way to achieve logout for one specific application ?
What you are asking is to have the capability of removing a specific participant from the session created in the Identity Server side. I don't see a straight forward way (OOTB) of achieving this.
Closest you can achieve is as below.
Make your application perform a forceAuth. ForceAuth will request for user credentials despite having the cookies in the browser. (This will prevent the user from experiencing the SSO comfort. Still you can authenticate against the IS)
Prevent the application from sending an SLO request to WSO2. Rather, terminate the self(application) session upon logout.
When your application really wants to perform an SLO (logout all the applications, not just yours), your application can send an SLO request to the Identity Server.
Performing a force authentication :
SAML - Send forceAuth=true as a query paramter in your login request. Or else change the SAML AuthenricationRequest payload body to indicate a force authentication as in the spec(Line 2042).
OIDC - Send prompt=login as an additional query parameter in the /authorization request.
You can do this by calling the REST API and SOAP API provided by WSO2 IS. This will remove the session at WSO2 IS but I'm not sure if it will also trigger the SLO to other service providers or not.
Reference:
https://is.docs.wso2.com/en/latest/develop/calling-admin-services/
https://is.docs.wso2.com/en/latest/develop/session-mgt-rest-api/
Trigger a SOAP request getUserProfile from the UserProfileMgtService.wsdl. The default user profile will be 'default' or you can put the customized profile name you used. This will return the details. Grab the user id from this.
Trigger a GET to the API: /{user-id}/sessions with the user-id from step 1 to get the list of all active sessions this user currently have. Go through the list of sessions and find the session ID of the Service Provider you need to clear.
Trigger a DELETE request to API: /{user-id}/sessions/{session-id} with the user id from step 1 & session id from step 2
I am developing a web application using EC2 on AWS.
In this application my client is requesting to use his SSO (Single Sign On) so I can verify the user against his Active Directory. My problem is that I can't get to know where to begin with, these are some of my questions:
1) Is this SSO takes place on my code or on my server?
2) Do I have to make different configuration for differents deployment environments (for example aws, azure, digitalocean, etc)?
3) Where do I define, send and parse SAML 2.0 format?
4) Do I have the send a POST request to the server where the SSO is installed? Or how is it managed?
So far I have found this tutorial, but I am still do not know what to do first, so any step by step information will help a lot.
First you need the client (Identity Provider IdP) SAML2 metadata. This will have their SSO endpoint URL and their X509 signing certificate.
Then you send them your SAML2 metadata with your Attribute Consumer Service (ACS) URL and X509 signing certificate.
Sample metadata here. Or you can build it here.
The certificates are normally long lived self signed certificates. They can be self signed as each side has a copy of the other's certificate which they will use to verify the signed request and response.
You construct a SAMLRequest and POST it to their SSO URL. There's an example request here.
They display their login page to the user and the user authenticates at their end.
They gather attributes for the user from their Active Directory and turn them into SAML attributes and put them in a SAMLResponse.
They POST the SAMLResponse to your ACS URL. There's an example response here.
You verify the signature on their SAMLResponse using their X509 certificate from their SAML2 metadata.
You extract the SAML Attributes from their verified SAMLResponse and take appropriate action in your application, e.g. create the user an account, perhaps their email address is one of their attributes.
The above is called the SAML2 Web Browser SSO Profile, explained here.
Depending on your stack, you can use something like:
Shibboleth (middleware, install on your server, it interrupts requests to specific paths requiring Authn against the Identity Provider [ADFS], and returns the user after successful auth setting some attributes telling you info about the user such as username, etc.). Works best if you can compartmentalize secured content into a particular path on the site like /secure.
SimpleSAMLphp (protect PHP resources directly)
Commercial SAML (ComponentSpace, etc. - works well if .Net app)
Basically, find something for your stack. DO NOT TRY TO ROLL YOUR OWN SAML IMPLEMENTATION!
I'm trying to create a self-signup client application which is using WSO2 API Manager and Identity Server.
When I tried to call a web service provided by Identity Server, I've observed that some of the java classes are trying to get a tenant admin credential from a registry file called self-signup.xml.
Due to this I am forced to change the tenant's admin credential manually in self-signup.xml whenever I change the admin's credential through carbon UI.
My questions are:
Is there any specific reason that WSO2 Identity Sever gets a tenant admin credential from that registry file rather than retrieving it from a database?
Is there any way to automatically update the tenant admin's credential written on that registry file when the credential is updated in the database (e.g. changed through carbon UI)
Thanks in advance.
What is the web service you are using for self sign up here?
If you are using UserRegistrationAdminService you should not require any admin credential for self sign up.
You should not require to read admin credentials from a file in your client. Usually if you want to call a web service which require authentication from your client, you need an user logged in to your client and you need to use the cookie retrieved by that user.
I want to develop custom form based login portlet because I have to validate the user crendential (username/password) using calling some webservice provided by the customer as he is maintaining the user credential in his side not in the portal side, So that if the webservices returns true then I need to authenticate the user to the Portal and redirect to some specific portal page.
Note: based on the customer request, the user's password is not stored in default portal LDAP which means, I can not use the portal Login service.
How can ask the portal to authenticate some user without passing the password in my custom login portlet?
thanks in advance.
You'll want to look at the WebSphere Application Server Trust Association Interceptor mechanism for what (to the portal and appserver) is password-less authentication.
Here is a post that outlines the steps you'll take. You won't be using WPS mechanisms other than your custom portlet for gathering credentials. The rest uses a common technique in the underlying WebSphere App Server.
