OpenID Connect Client

Overview

This project contains an OpenID Connect Client implemented as a Spring Security AuthenticationFilter. The client facilitates a user's authentication into the secured application to an OpenID Connect Java Spring Server following the OpenID Connect Standard protocol.

For an example of the Client configuration, see the Simple Web App project.

Configuring

Configure the client by adding the following XML to your application context security making changes where necessary for your specific deployment.

Open and define an HTTP security configuration with a reference to a custom AuthenticationEntryPoint, described below:

<security:http auto-config="false" use-expressions="true" disable-url-rewriting="true" entry-point-ref="authenticationEntryPoint" pattern="/**">

Specify the access attributes and/or filter list for a particular set of URLs needing protection:

	<security:intercept-url pattern="/**" access="hasAnyRole('ROLE_USER','ROLE_ADMIN')" /> 

Indicate that OIDCAuthenticationFilter authentication filter should be incorporated into the security filter chain:

	<security:custom-filter before="PRE_AUTH_FILTER" ref="openIdConnectAuthenticationFilter" />

Then close the HTTP security configuration:

</security:http>

Define a custom AuthenticationEntryPoint to use a login URL via a bean declaration:

<bean id="authenticationEntryPoint" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.LoginUrlAuthenticationEntryPoint"> 
	<property name="loginFormUrl" value="/openid_connect_login" />
</bean>

NOTE: The loginFormUrl value is post-pended to the URI of the application being secured to define the redirect_uri, the value passed to the OIDC Server and, if the OIDCAuthenticationUsingChooserFilter is configured, also the Account Chooser Application.

Define an AuthenticationManager with a reference to a custom authentication provider, OpenIDConnectAuthenticationProvider:

<security:authentication-manager alias="authenticationManager">
	<security:authentication-provider ref="openIDConnectAuthenticationProvider" />
</security:authentication-manager> 

Define the custom authentication provider. Note that it does not take a UserDetailsService as input at this time but instead makes a call to the UserInfoEndpoint to fill in user information.

<bean id="openIdConnectAuthenticationProvider" class="org.mitre.openid.connect.client.OIDCAuthenticationProvider" />

Configuring the OIDCAuthenticationFilter

The OIDCAuthenticationFilter filter is defined with the following properties:

• authenticationManager -- a reference to the AuthenticationManager
• errorRedirectURI -- the URI of the Error redirect

Additionally, it contains a set of convenience methods to pass through to parameters on the OIDCServerConfiguration object that defines attributes of the server that it connects to:

• issuer -- the root issuer string of this server (required)
• authorizationEndpointUrl -- the URL of the Authorization Endpoint (required)
• tokenEndpointUrl -- the URL of the Token Endpoint (required)
• jwkSigningUrl -- the URL of the JWK (public key) Endpoint for token verification
• clientId -- the registered client identifier (required)
• clientSecret -- the registered client secret
• userInfoUrl -- the URL of the User Info Endpoint
• scope -- space-separated list of scopes; the required value "openid" will always be prepended to the list given here

Configure like so:

<bean id="openIdConnectAuthenticationFilter"
	class="org.mitre.openid.connect.client.PlainOIDCAuthenticationFilter">
	<property name="authenticationManager" ref="authenticationManager" />
	<property name="errorRedirectURI" value="/login.jsp?authfail=openid" />
	<property name="issuer" value="http://server.example.com:8080/openid-connect-server/" />
	<property name="authorizationEndpointUrl" value="http://sever.example.com:8080/openid-connect-server/openidconnect/auth" />
	<property name="tokenEndpointUrl" value="http://sever.example.com:8080/openid-connect-server/openidconnect/token" />
	<property name="jwkSigningUrl" value="http://server.example.com:8080/openid-connect-server/jwk" />
	<property name="clientId" value="someClientId" /> 
	<property name="clientSecret" value="someClientSecret" /> 
	<property name="userInfoUrl" value="http://server.example.com:8080/open-id-connect-server/userinfo" />
	<property name="scope" value="profile email address phone" />
</bean>	

Configuring the OIDCAuthenticationUsingChooserFilter

For talking to multiple IdPs using an Account chooser, the OIDCAuthenticationUsingChooserFilter can be configured and used. The Client -- Account Chooser protocol documentation details the protocol used between the Client and an Account Chooser application.

The OIDCAuthenticationUsingChooserFilter Authentication Filter has the following properties:

• authenticationManager -- a reference to the AuthenticationManager,
• errorRedirectURI -- the URI of the Error redirect,
• accountChooserURI -- to denote the URI of the Account Chooser, and
• accountChooserClient -- to identify the Client to the Account Chooser UI application.
• oidcServerConfigs -- a map of OIDCserverConfigurations to encapsulate the settings necesary for the client to communicate with each respective OIDC server,

Each OIDCServerConfiguration entry in OIDCserverConfiguration map is keyed to the issuer returned from the Account Chooser Application and enumerates the following properties:

• authenticationManager -- a reference to the AuthenticationManager,
• issuer -- the root issuer string of this server (required)
• authorizationEndpointUrl -- the URL of the Authorization Endpoint (required)
• tokenEndpointUrl -- the URL of the Token Endpoint (required)
• jwkSigningUrl -- the URL of the JWK (public key) Endpoint for token verification
• clientId -- the registered client identifier (required)
• clientSecret -- the registered client secret
• userInfoUrl -- the URL of the User Info Endpoint
• scope -- space-separated list of scopes; the required value "openid" will always be prepended to the list given here

Configure like so:

<bean id="openIdConnectAuthenticationFilter"
	class="org.mitre.openid.connect.client.OIDCAuthenticationUsingChooserFilter">
	<property name="errorRedirectURI" value="/login.jsp?authfail=openid" /> 
	<property name="authenticationManager" ref="authenticationManager" />
	<property name="accountChooserURI" value="http://sever.example.com:8080/account-chooser" />
	<property name="accountChooserClientID" value="FGWEUIASJK" />
	<property name="oidcServerConfigs">
