I have currently set up a web-based application, to which I have added an authentication method using oauth2_proxy (with gitlab as authentication provider). What I need to know is if there's way that I can restrict the access to this app using a Gitlab group or something like that? Because as of now - oauth is configured to allow access to any user on gitlab which has a #foor.bar email domain (-email-domain=foo.bar directive on oauth config). However I'm looking to control this method in a more restricted manner, so for instance I will create a group on Gitlab, to which I will add only relevant users & other groups to which access should be granted. Is there a way to do it?
Not sure if it's what you're looking for but regards documentation you could use --authenticated-emails-file param to provide authenticated emails list.

I've got Artifactory set up to allow SSO via an OIDC client in Keycloak. Keycloak talks to Active Directory in the background. I've also got the same Active Directory configured within Artifactory. I've also configured Keycloak to provide user groups in the userinfo structure.
What I'm trying to do is to get OAuth users to automatically be added to the imported LDAP groups within Artifactory. I don't mind if this is done via the userinfo structure or via a separate LDAP lookup when a user logs in. However I can't seem to figure out how to achieve this.
I know that Artifactory provides a plugin called synchronizeLdapGroups.groovy, which seems to advertise doing what I need, however it seems like the plugin is not actually taking effect. That is to say, users do not end up with the permissions that being in the LDAP groups would provide.
I've attempted to write a plugin myself to do what I need, but when I make the API call to add the groups to the user, the plugin crashes. It's unclear why at this point.
It seems like others have used the SCIM feature in Artifactory for something akin to this (mostly via SAML rather than OIDC though), however Keycloak doesn't support SCIM out of the box and the SCIM plugin I've tried using has similarly given me no results.
Has anyone done something similar to this, and has a working solution I could follow?
If it's a specific group you want all users to be in you could try:
Under Security - OAuth SSO settings tab - check "Auto Create Users"
Under Identity and Access - Groups - select the specific group and check "Automatically Join New Users To The Group"
I'm guessing you want to automatically sync user-group association between Keycloak and Artifactory. SCIM is what you're looking for but there's a known issue specifically with Keycloak SCIM plugin.
We're looking into the SCIM plugin for Keycloak (can't commit on a specific timeline for a fix but it should be sometime this quarter).
If you only need the association in the UI you could try SAML with "Auto associate groups" set. It won't apply the groups association for APIKey/Token calls but it would work for the UI.
EDIT:
after further investigation github.com/Captain-P-Goldfish/scim-for-keycloak isn't relevant here - it makes keycloak a SCIM client, not a SCIM server. There's no official support of SCIM in keycloak, see issues.redhat.com/browse/KEYCLOAK-2537 . and there's no working plugin for keycloak that makes it a SCIM server that I could find (tried a few, all broken). For now Artifactory can't support SCIM with Keycloak
What is the benefit of implementing Active Directory based Security to servers like Jenkins?
The only benefit I can think is the admin of the sever does not need to add/remove users because user can login themselves using AD credential.
But In my case I do not want to have the whole company access my server. the server is only used by my team. How can I disable the whole company from login in. (case1)
Besides, I want to grant different permissions to different members in my team. The new members get less permission, the experienced team members get more permissions. I believe this is very common. But using Active Directory based Security looks like they get the same permission because they are in the same groups (case2)
So why should I use Active Directory based Security? Can I resolve the above two cases in a server configured with Active Directory based Security?
Some corporate environments make this a security requirement. In said environments they usually have an internal request system where users can request they have their credentials added to an appropriate group for access to Jenkins. This is better than Jenkins own database and having them email you, the Jenkins administrator.
Once AD Authentication is configured in Jenkins and appropriate groups created in AD you can do a one-time setup of those groups with the Role-Based Strategy plugin in Jenkins and define what those groups have authorization to do.
Plan your groups well and it is a function that you will no longer have to worry about.
Warning: Be very careful when switching over from Jenkins own database user authentication to AD authentication. If you don't get the BindDN details just right you can get locked out.
There used to be a way for an anonymous user - such as a script - to query certain aspects of Jenkins via its REST API. For example, finding out the name of a user who started a particular build job, or the date it executed. However the security model changed in the last few years which seems to make this much more difficult, even for read-only access.
I'm using Jenkins with ADS authentication. I need to provide API access to a script, but I don't want to use a particular user's personal API token (hard-coded in the script) because the script might be run by anyone in my organisation, including as part of other automation, and I don't want to tie this to a specific employee.
Instead I need a job-based token - one which is set for the job. There's a build token, but I don't think this works for the REST API.
I thought about creating a special "auto" user, and creating a token for that user, but the Active Directory config seems to prevent me from creating new Jenkins users. I cannot create a new AD user because I simply don't have the ability to do that in my organisation.
What's the best approach to using API tokens for anonymous access? Also, is there a way to ensure the token only provides limited access - e.g. read only? Ideally such a token would be restricted to a specific set of jobs, rather than global.
There is not. Feature request is JENKINS-56465.
See https://stackoverflow.com/a/49938577/97831 on how to add users to the Jenkins database with authentication already enabled.
API tokens are the same as password, functionally speaking. If you could do it with the password, you can do it with the API token. If you want an API token to have read-only access, then the user it's associated with should be restricted to read-only access.
I am using F5 IControl 11.5.1,i have integrated ldap and working fine but i need to access F5 using icontrol rest service.
is there any rest end point available in 11.5.1?
what are parameters and how to pass for ldap?
iControlRest is available in 11.5.1. It was introduced in 11.4 as an early access feature and fully implemented in 11.5. The documentation for iControlRest can be found here. You can find the endpoints and examples for how to use them there. Here's another link to the PDF of the user manual for the 11.5.0 version.
The format for using iControlRest is https://BIGIP/mgmt/tm/ltm/pool. The endpoints use Basic authentication so you'll need to make sure to that the basic Authorization header. Also, you'll need to use an account that has admin permissions to the box.
There is no way to bypass LDAP/TACACS or remote authentication as of this time in any version. I recently opened a case for the same issue. The service account you use must exist in LDAP or you have to use the "admin" account.
Recently, F5 came up with a concept of Role Based Access Control (RBAC), — create a local user a/c but here you can be able to just add Username and Role. No password entry is available. Make sure you use Username that is not listed in the remote role groups on the remote authentication server (Active Directory - ldap).
I am using access control on Jenkins with openid plugin. Users are authenticated through Google account.
But i also need to have users created on Jenkins internally. i.e role based access control.
Is there a way to configure Jenkins to make it possible to use multiple access control mechanisms at the same time ? Currently i can only select one.
Any plugins to make it possible ?
No, your users need a google apps account to login.
But that shouldn't be a problem with https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Role+Strategy+Plugin
