How to preauthorize access to a Http.InboundGateway? - spring-security

I know its possible to add a #PreAuthorize annotation to a Rest Controller...
#RestController
public class WebController {
#PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('Foo')")
#GetMapping("/restricted")
public ResponseEntity<String> restricted() {
return ResponseEntity.ok("Restricted section");
}
}
How can one preauthorize access to a Spring Integration Http.inbound gateway? I know I could add in a component to the Integration flow and add the annotation on a transformer or service activator method but I'd rather not have a separate object for that.
#Bean
//#PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('Foo')") ?
public HttpRequestHandlingMessagingGateway restrictedGateway() {
return Http.inboundGateway("/restricted")
...
.get();
}
#Bean
public IntegrationFlow myFlow(HttpRequestHandlingMessagingGateway restrictedGateway) {
return IntegrationFlows
.from(restrictedGateway)
.transform(source -> "Restricted section")
.get();
}

I think you are right by looking at https://docs.spring.io/spring-integration/reference/html/security.htm where it allows channel to be declared #Secured
Even if we think about spring security on a normal spring boot app without integration, it is at filter level so it seems to make sense as I consider HttpRequestHandlingMessagingGateway as a listener for http requests
Can you try
#Bean
#SecuredChannel(interceptor = "channelSecurityInterceptor", sendAccess = "ROLE_XXX")
public SubscribableChannel secureChannel() {
return new DirectChannel();
}
#Bean
public IntegrationFlow myFlow(HttpRequestHandlingMessagingGateway
restrictedGateway) {
return IntegrationFlows
.from(restrictedGateway)
.channel(secureChannel())
.transform(source -> "Restricted section")
.get();
}

Secondary save method in a Spring Data JPA repo?

I have a Spring Data JPA repo exported via Spring Data REST and secured with Spring Security. I also need to save data to this table from an unsecured endpoint but my save() method is secured.
I cannot create a second repository because of https://jira.spring.io/browse/DATAREST-923.
The only way I know of is manipulating the security context by hand every time before calling the secured save() method.
Is there a better way?
If you secured only save method you can try to use insecurely saveAndFlush method.
Another approach - customize your repo. First - implement the custom repo, for example:
public interface CustomRepo {
MyEntity saveUnsecured(MyEntity entity);
}
#Repository
public class CustomRepoImpl implements CustomRepo {
private final EntityManager em;
public CustomRepoImpl(EntityManager em) {
this.em = em;
}
#Transactional
#Override
public MyEntity saveUnsecured(MyEntity entity) {
if (entity.getId() == null) {
em.persist(entity);
return entity;
} else {
return em.merge(entity);
}
}
}
Then extend your repo from custom one:
public interface MyEntityRepo extends JpaRepository<MyEntity, Long>, CustomRepo {
//...
}

Spring Security Webflux/Reactive Exception Handling

I'm building app on spring webflux, and i'm stuck because spring security webflux (v.M5) did not behave like Spring 4 in term of exception handling.
I saw following post about how to customise spring security webflux:
Spring webflux custom authentication for API
If we throw exception let say in ServerSecurityContextRepository.load, Spring will update http header to 500 and nothing i can do to manipulate this exception.
However, any error thrown in controller can be handled using regular #ControllerAdvice, it just spring webflux security.
Is there anyway to handle exception in spring webflux security?
The solution I found is creating a component implementing ErrorWebExceptionHandler. The instances of ErrorWebExceptionHandler bean run before Spring Security filters. Here's a sample that I use:
#Slf4j
#Component
public class GlobalExceptionHandler implements ErrorWebExceptionHandler {
#Autowired
private DataBufferWriter bufferWriter;
#Override
public Mono<Void> handle(ServerWebExchange exchange, Throwable ex) {
HttpStatus status = HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR;
AppError appError = ErrorCode.GENERIC.toAppError();
if (ex instanceof AppException) {
AppException ae = (AppException) ex;
status = ae.getStatusCode();
appError = new AppError(ae.getCode(), ae.getText());
log.debug(appError.toString());
} else {
log.error(ex.getMessage(), ex);
}
if (exchange.getResponse().isCommitted()) {
return Mono.error(ex);
}
exchange.getResponse().setStatusCode(status);
return bufferWriter.write(exchange.getResponse(), appError);
}
}
If you're injecting the HttpHandler instead, then it's a bit different but the idea is the same.
UPDATE: For completeness, here's my DataBufferWriter object, which is a #Component:
#Component
#RequiredArgsConstructor(onConstructor = #__(#Autowired))
#Slf4j
public class DataBufferWriter {
private final ObjectMapper objectMapper;
public <T> Mono<Void> write(ServerHttpResponse httpResponse, T object) {
return httpResponse
.writeWith(Mono.fromSupplier(() -> {
DataBufferFactory bufferFactory = httpResponse.bufferFactory();
try {
return bufferFactory.wrap(objectMapper.writeValueAsBytes(object));
} catch (Exception ex) {
log.warn("Error writing response", ex);
return bufferFactory.wrap(new byte[0]);
}
}));
}
}
There is no need to register any bean and change default Spring behavior. Try more elegant solution instead:
We have:
The custom implementation of the ServerSecurityContextRepository
The method .load return Mono
public class HttpRequestHeaderSecurityContextRepository implements ServerSecurityContextRepository {
....
#Override
public Mono<SecurityContext> load(ServerWebExchange exchange) {
List<String> tokens = exchange.getRequest().getHeaders().get("X-Auth-Token");
String token = (tokens != null && !tokens.isEmpty()) ? tokens.get(0) : null;
Mono<Authentication> authMono = reactiveAuthenticationManager
.authenticate( new HttpRequestHeaderToken(token) );
return authMono
.map( auth -> (SecurityContext)new SecurityContextImpl(auth))
}
}
The problem is: if the authMono will contains an error instead of Authentication - spring will return the http response with 500 status (which means "an unknown internal error") instead of 401. Even the error is AuthenticationException or it's subclass - it makes no sense - Spring will return 500.
But it is clear for us: an AuthenticationException should produce the 401 error...
To solve the problem we have to help Spring how to convert an Exception into the HTTP response status code.
To make it we have can just use the appropriate Exception class: ResponseStatusException or just map an original exception to this one (for instance, by adding the onErrorMap() to the authMono object). See the final code:
public class HttpRequestHeaderSecurityContextRepository implements ServerSecurityContextRepository {
....
#Override
public Mono<SecurityContext> load(ServerWebExchange exchange) {
List<String> tokens = exchange.getRequest().getHeaders().get("X-Auth-Token");
String token = (tokens != null && !tokens.isEmpty()) ? tokens.get(0) : null;
Mono<Authentication> authMono = reactiveAuthenticationManager
.authenticate( new HttpRequestHeaderToken(token) );
return authMono
.map( auth -> (SecurityContext)new SecurityContextImpl(auth))
.onErrorMap(
er -> er instanceof AuthenticationException,
autEx -> new ResponseStatusException(HttpStatus.UNAUTHORIZED, autEx.getMessage(), autEx)
)
;
)
}
}
I just went trough lots of documentation, having a similar problem.
My solution was using ResponseStatusException. AccessException of Spring-security seems to be understood.
.doOnError(
t -> AccessDeniedException.class.isAssignableFrom(t.getClass()),
t -> AUDIT.error("Error {} {}, tried to access {}", t.getMessage(), principal, exchange.getRequest().getURI())) // if an error happens in the stream, show its message
.onErrorMap(
SomeOtherException.class,
t -> { return new ResponseStatusException(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND, "Collection not found");})
;
If this goes in the right direction for you, I can provide a bit better sample.

How to consume basic-authentication protected Restful web service via feign client

Thank you for your time.
To make it simple, I created a example service like below:
#RestController
#RequestMapping("/")
public class ComputeController {
#GetMapping("/add")
public int add(#RequestParam("left") int left, #RequestParam("right") int right) {
return left + right;
}
}
To protected this url, I config spring-security like this:
management.security.enabled=true
security.user.name=admin
security.user.password=admin
When I startup this service and access like this:
GET /add?left=100&right=11 HTTP/1.1
Authorization: ***** Hidden credentials *****
Host: localhost:7777
Connection: close
Everythis is going fine.
In other node, I created a "service-comsumer" by netflix feign. It's a Java Interface.
#FeignClient(name = "API-GATEWAY", path = "/compute-service", fallback = ComputeServiceCircuitBreaker.class)
public interface ComputeServiceClient {
#RequestMapping(path = "/add", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public Integer add(#RequestParam("left") Integer left, #RequestParam("right") Integer right);
}
But I DO NOT know how to config the request header "Authorization".
Any idea? Thanks again.
You need to create a FeignClient Configuration class, for example
import feign.auth.BasicAuthRequestInterceptor;
#Configuration
public class FeignClientConfiguration {
#Bean
public BasicAuthRequestInterceptor basicAuthRequestInterceptor() {
return new BasicAuthRequestInterceptor("admin", "admin");
}
}
then in your #FeignClient annotation use this configuration file:
#FeignClient(name="service", configuration = FeignClientConfiguration.class)
As of october 2020, this works:
public class FeignClientConfiguration {
#Bean
public BasicAuthRequestInterceptor basicAuthRequestInterceptor() {
return new BasicAuthRequestInterceptor("asdf", "asdf");
}
}
#FeignClient(name = "thirdPartyClient", url = "ceva.com",
configuration = FeignClientConfiguration.class)
public interface ThirdPartyClient {
#GetMapping
Response get();
}
Note, we don't annotate the configuration with #Configuration in order to not apply it to all requests.

Securing exclusively the REST access to a Spring Data Rest Repository

I'm using Spring Data Rest to expose a repository. I'm using #PreAuthorize and #PostFilter to restrict the access to the REST end points to exclusively admin users and filter the results.
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('ROLE_ADMIN')")
#PostFilter("hasPermission(filterObject, 'read')
public interface SomeRepository extends CrudRepository<SomeEntity, Long> {
}
At the same time I have another Controller that doesn't require any authentication but is using the repository.
#Controller
public class SomeController {
#Autowired
SomeRepository repository;
#RequestMapping(value = "/test")
public ResponseEntity test () {
// Do something
repository.findAll();
// Do something else
}
}
This doesn't work because the user that send the request to "/test" is not admin so it doesn't have access to the repository.
My question is, it is possible to add security exclusively to the REST interface of the repository and not when the repository is used internally in the application?
Thanks
Please evaluate these possibilities:
Security checks in REST event handlers
Adding custom repository methods for internal use
Using RunAsManager (or temporarily switching SecurityContext to perform a privileged operation)
Securing modifying requests using REST event handlers:
#Service
#RepositoryEventHandler
public class FooService {
/**
* Handles before-* events.
*/
#HandleBeforeCreate
#HandleBeforeSave
#HandleBeforeDelete
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('ADMIN')")
public void onBeforeModify(final Foo entity){
// noop
}
/**
* Handles before-* events.
*/
#HandleBeforeLinkSave
#HandleBeforeLinkDelete
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('ADMIN')")
public void onBeforeModifyLink(final Foo entity, final Object linked){
// noop
}
}
Securing standard CRUD methods while adding non-secure custom methods on repository for internal use:
public interface FooDao extends CrudRepository<Foo, Long> {
#Override
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('ADMIN')")
<S extends Foo> S save(final S entity);
/**
* Saves entity without security checks.
*/
#Transactional
#Modifying
default <S extends Foo> S saveInternal(final S entity) {
return save(entity);
}
}
One solution would be to remove the #PreAuthorize annotation from your repository interface, and in a configuration class, extend WebSecurityConfigAdaptor and override the configure(HttpSecurity security) method. From here you can use AntMatchers to impose access restrictions to the REST endpoints as required. For example:
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/someEntities/**").hasRole('ADMIN')
.anyRequest().permitAll();
}
See http://docs.spring.io/spring-security/site/docs/current/reference/htmlsingle/#jc-httpsecurity for more details.
I ran into the same problem and came up with a workaround that doesn't feel completely right but does its job for the time being.
I basically created a security utils bean which can be used to check if a method was called internally or externally using the Spring Data REST API (remark: my repositories are prefixed /api/, if you have another prefix you need to change the regex accordingly).
#Component("securityUtils")
public class SecurityUtils {
public boolean isRestRequest(){
HttpServletRequest r = ((ServletRequestAttributes) RequestContextHolder.currentRequestAttributes()).getRequest();
return Pattern.matches("^/api/", UrlUtils.buildRequestUrl(r));
}
}
To make this work, you need to add the following line to your listeners in the web.xml:
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextListener</listener-class>
And use the method in your expression based access control like so (where the last line in the expression allows you to use the save method from any controller methods that are mapped against URLs which do not start with /api/:
#Override
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR') " +
"or hasPermission(#user, 'WRITE') " +
"or !#securityUtils.isRestRequest()")
<S extends User> S save(#P("user") S user);
Caveats:
You cannot use this when you want to expose custom functionality over the /api route as this is merely a simple regex check against the route
The check has to be explicitly added to each repository or repository method for which you want to omit the authorization check internally (might be an advantage as well)
In my opinion the right solution would be to have two Repositories, one that is called EntityRepository and one SecuredEntityRepository.
Example:
#RestResource(exported = false)
public abstract interface CustomerRepository extends JpaRepository<Customer, Long> {
}
and the secured version:
#RestResource(exported = true)
public abstract interface SecuredCustomerRepository extends CustomerRepository {
#Override
#PreAuthorize("#id == principal.customer.id or hasAuthority('ADMIN_CUSTOMER_ONE')")
public Customer findOne(#Param("id") Long id);
#Override
#Query("SELECT o FROM #{#entityName} o WHERE o.id = ?#{principal.customer.id} or 1 = ?#{ hasAuthority('ADMIN_CUSTOMER_LIST') ? 1 : 0 }")
public Page<Customer> findAll(Pageable pageable);
#Override
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
#PreAuthorize("#customer.id == principal.customer.id or hasAuthority('ADMIN_CUSTOMER_SAVE')")
public Customer save(#P("customer") Customer customer);
#Override
#PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('ADMIN_CUSTOMER_DELETE')")
public void delete(#Param("id") Long id);
#Override
#PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('ADMIN_CUSTOMER_DELETE')")
public void delete(Customer customer);
}
This is currently not possible due to an issue with the auto-wiring mechanism in SD REST: https://jira.spring.io/browse/DATAREST-923
Sure. Just change the location of the #PreAuthorize annotation. This annotation can be placed in classes or single methods.
For example
#Controller
public class SomeController {
#Autowired
SomeRepository repository;
#RequestMapping(value = "/test")
#PreAuthorize(....)
public ResponseEntity test () {
// Do something
repository.findAll();
// Do something else
}
}
is perfectly legit (note the annotation on the test() method.
I decorated the repository class with this:
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('admin')")
It locked down everything.
Then whatever I wanted to enable for internal use but not rest, I decorated like this:
#Transactional
#Modifying
#PreAuthorize("hasRole('user')")
#RestResource(exported = false)
default <S extends SomeEntity> S saveInternal(final S entity) {
return save(entity);
}
And whatever I wanted to expose via the Rest interface (handpicked few) I exposed with something like this:
#PreAuthorize("(hasRole('user')) and
(#entity.user.username == principal.name)")
#Override
<S extends SomeEntity> S save(#Param("entity") S entity);
Note that this also validates that you are saving a record you are authorized to save.
I solved this problem by adding my own check
I created my AbstractHttpConfigurer class with global security. I have declared methods that can be public.
public class CommonSpringKeycloakTutorialsSecurityAdapter extends AbstractHttpConfigurer<CommonSpringKeycloakTutorialsSecurityAdapter, HttpSecurity> {
public static String[] PERMIT_ALL_URL = {"/api/user/createUser"};
#Override
public void init(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
// any method that adds another configurer
// must be done in the init method
http
// disable csrf because of API mode
.csrf().disable()
.sessionManagement()
.sessionCreationPolicy(SessionCreationPolicy.STATELESS)
.and()
// manage routes securisation here
.authorizeRequests().antMatchers(HttpMethod.OPTIONS).permitAll()
// manage routes securisation here
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers(HttpMethod.OPTIONS).permitAll()
.antMatchers("/swagger-ui.html*", "/swagger-ui/**", "/v3/api-docs/**").permitAll()
.antMatchers(PERMIT_ALL_URL).permitAll()
.anyRequest().authenticated();
}
Then I created my own check based on global permissions.
#Component("securityUtils")
public class SecurityUtils {
public boolean isPermitRestRequest(){
HttpServletRequest r = ((ServletRequestAttributes) RequestContextHolder.currentRequestAttributes()).getRequest();
String currentUrl = UrlUtils.buildRequestUrl(r);
for(String url: CommonSpringKeycloakTutorialsSecurityAdapter.PERMIT_ALL_URL) {
if(currentUrl.equals(url)) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
}
For native validation to work, include a listener
#WebListener
public class MyRequestContextListener extends RequestContextListener {
}
In my team we evaluated several of the answers in this post and they didn't fit to our scenario.
A variation of Johannes Hiemer answer worked for us. We configured Spring Data REST to only expose annotated repositories:
data.rest:
detection-strategy: annotated
Then we defined 2 repositories without hierarchical relationship.
One of the repos will be exposed by adding the #RepositoryRestResource annotation to it. For this one, we deny access to every method by default so auth will have to be specified on a method level to reduce the chances of exposing methods by mistake. For example, initially we extended CrudRepository and didn't want to expose the deletion operation:
#RepositoryRestResource
#PreAuthorize("denyAll()")
interface SomeRestResourceRepository : Repository<SomeEntity, Long> {
}
The repository to be used for internal calls is defined as a regular Spring Data Repository:
interface SomeRepository : Repository<SomeEntity, Long> {
}
We are using spring-boot-starter-data-rest 2.6.3.

How to secure reactor netServer with spring security?

I try to develop an "hybrid" server using spring boot webApplication with embedded tomcat and a netServer from reactor to scale-up my Rest Api.
There are no Spring controller, all the incoming request are handled by the netServer.
Never the less i'd like to have a login page using spring security remember me facilities to authenticate the user and use this authentication to secure incoming request on the reactor netServer.
I start to implements the netServer, according to this tutorial reactor thumbmailer
here is my netServer :
NetServer<FullHttpRequest, FullHttpResponse> server = new TcpServerSpec<FullHttpRequest, FullHttpResponse>(NettyTcpServer.class)
.env(env)
.dispatcher("sync")
.listen(8080)
.options(opts)
.consume(ch -> {
// attach an error handler
ch.when(Throwable.class, UserController.errorHandler(ch));
// filter requests by URI
Stream<FullHttpRequest> in = ch.in();
// serve image thumbnail to browser
in.filter((FullHttpRequest req) -> req.getUri().startsWith(UserController.GET_USER_PROFILE))
.consume(UserController.getUserProfile(ch));
})
.get();
So when a user try to load his profile, the incoming request is handled by the userController :
public static Consumer<FullHttpRequest> getUserProfile(NetChannel<FullHttpRequest, FullHttpResponse> channel) {
UserService userService = StaticContextAccessor.getBean(UserService.class);
return req -> {
try {
LoginDTO login = RestApiUtils.parseJson(LoginDTO.class, RestApiUtils.getJsonContent(req));
DefaultFullHttpResponse resp = new DefaultFullHttpResponse(HTTP_1_1, OK);
String result = userService.loadUserProfile(login);
resp.headers().set(CONTENT_TYPE, "application/json");
resp.headers().set(CONTENT_LENGTH, result.length());
resp.content().writeBytes(result.getBytes());
channel.send(resp);
} catch (Exception e) {
channel.send(badRequest(e.getMessage()));
}
};
}
Here is the hack : getUserProfile is a static methode, so i can't use GlobalMethodSecurity to secure it.
i then inject a userService in this controller using a StaticContextAccessor :
#Component
public class StaticContextAccessor {
private static StaticContextAccessor instance;
#Autowired
private ApplicationContext applicationContext;
#PostConstruct
public void registerInstance() {
instance = this;
}
public static <T> T getBean(Class<T> clazz) {
return instance.applicationContext.getBean(clazz);
}
}
UserService :
#Service
#PreAuthorize("true")
public class UserServiceImpl implements UserService{
public String loadUserProfile(LoginDTO login){
//TODO load profile in mongo
return new GsonBuilder().create().toJson(login);
}
}
the service is managed by spring so i guess i could use spring GlobalMethodSecurity on it (i m still developping this part, but i'm not sure this is the best way to secure my netServer)
Is there a easier way to use Spring security on reactor netServer ???
My first web site version was developped with nodeJS to handle many concurent users, and i try to refactor it using a JVM nio solution.
So is spring / reactor / netty a good solution to have a highly scalable server, or should i use something like play! or vertx.io ?
Thank you so much
Have you tried bootstrapping your NetServer from within a JavaConfig #Bean method? Something like:
#Configuration
#EnableReactor
class AppConfig {
public Function<NetChannel, UserController> users() {
return new UserControllerFactory();
}
#Bean
public NetServer netServer(Environment env, Function<NetChannel, UserController> users) {
return new TcpServerSpec(NettyTcpServer.class)
.env(env)
.dispatcher("sync")
.listen(8080)
.options(opts)
.consume(ch -> {
// attach an error handler
ch.when(Throwable.class, UserController.errorHandler(ch));
// filter requests by URI
Stream<FullHttpRequest> in = ch.in();
// serve image thumbnail to browser
in.filter((FullHttpRequest req) -> req.getUri().startsWith(UserController.GET_USER_PROFILE))
.consume(users.apply(ch));
})
.get();
}
}
This should preserve your Spring Security support and enable you to share handlers as beans rather than as return values from static methods. In general, just about everything you need to do in a Reactor TCP app can be done using beans and injection and by returing the NetServer as a bean itself.
