This allows us to use the config framework. * Make SAML2UserAuthenticator validate SAML token in httprequest * Make logout API use ConfigKeys defined in saml auth manager * Before doing SAML auth, cleanup local states and cookies * Fix configurations in 4.5.1 to 4.5.2 upgrade path * Fail if idp has no sso URL defined * Add a default set of SAML SP cert for testing purposes Now to enable and use saml, one needs to do a deploydb-saml after doing a deploydb - CLOUDSTACK-8458: * On UI show dropdown list of discovered IdPs * Support SAML Federation, where there may be more than one IdP - New datastructure to hold metadata of SP or IdP - Recursive processing of IdP metadata - Fix login/logout APIs to get new interface and metadata data structure - Add org/contact information to metadata - Add new API: listIdps that returns list of all discovered IdPs - Refactor and cleanup code and tests - CLOUDSTACK-8459: * Add HTTP-POST binding to SP metadata * Authn requests must use either HTTP POST/Artifact binding - CLOUDSTACK-8461: * Use unspecified x509 cert as a fallback encryption/signing key In case a IDP's metadata does not clearly say if their certificates need to be used as signing or encryption and we don't find that, fallback to use the unspecified key itself. - CLOUDSTACK-8462: * SAML Auth plugin should not do authorization This removes logic to create user if they don't exist. This strictly now assumes that users have been already created/imported/authorized by admins. As per SAML v2.0 spec section 4.1.2, the SP provider should create authn requests using either HTTP POST or HTTP Artifact binding to transfer the message through a user agent (browser in our case). The use of HTTP Redirect was one of the reasons why this plugin failed to work for some IdP servers that enforce this. * Add new User Source By reusing the source field, we can find if a user has been SAML enabled or not. The limitation is that, once say a user is imported by LDAP and then SAML enabled - they won't be able to use LDAP for authentication * UI should allow users to pass in domain they want to log into * SAML users need to be authorized before they can authenticate - New column entity to track saml entity id for a user - Reusing source column to check if user is saml enabled or not - Add new source types, saml2 and saml2disabled - New table saml_token to solve the issue of multiple users across domains and to enforce security by tracking authn token and checking the samlresponse for the tokens - Implement API: authorizeSamlSso to enable/disable saml authentication for a user - Stubs to implement saml token flushing/expiry - CLOUDSTACK-8463: * Use username attribute specified in global setting Use username attribute defined by admin from a global setting In case of encrypted assertion/attributes: - Decrypt them - Check signature if provided to check authenticity of message using IdP's public key and SP's private key - Loop through attributes to find the username - CLOUDSTACK-8538: * Add new global config for SAML request sig algorithm - CLOUDSTACK-8539: * Add metadata refresh timer task and token expiring - Fix domain path and save it to saml_tokens - Expire hour old saml tokens - Refresh metadata based on timer task - Fix unit tests ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
