Darran Lofthouse updated JBWS-1999:
-----------------------------------

    Description: 
Implement authentication and authorization for POJO endpoints where credentials are supplied using WS-Security.


  was:
Karl de Boer sais:

I created a Username TokenProfile implementation where the userid pwd are verified against the active JAAS SecurityManager
I want to share this with you.
It appears to me there is only support for EJB based webservices for this. So i had to create it myself in the form of a messagehandler and some glue to integrate with JBossSX.
In general i think the focus is to much on EJB Based services. I prefer the WSDL first approach to define a proper SOA.

It is not a perfect implementation. I do'nt do anything with Nonce and Timestamp and i also do not support passwordDigest.
So i also do not use any keystores (PasswordText is protect by the transport layer in my case (SSL)). I saw there is an issue in JIRA where the keystore shoud not be required. This is such a case.
I also was surprised that JBossWS does not check anymore for the requires Username section in Jboss-wsse-server.xml. But for this there is also as JIRA issue
What i did in a separate messagehandler should perhaps be moved to the WSSecurityDispatcher, which takes care of all WSSecurity related stuff.


To activate the messagehandler processing i simply adjusted the default the standard-jaxws-endpoint-config.xml 


  <endpoint-config>
    <config-name>Standard WSSecurity Endpoint</config-name>
    <post-handler-chains>
      <javaee:handler-chain>
        <javaee:protocol-bindings>##SOAP11_HTTP</javaee:protocol-bindings>
        <javaee:handler>
          <javaee:handler-name>WSSecurity Handler</javaee:handler-name>
          <javaee:handler-class>org.jboss.ws.extensions.security.jaxws.WSSecurityHandlerServer</javaee:handler-class>
        </javaee:handler>
       <javaee:handler>
          <javaee:handler-name>UserNameTokenProfileMessageHandler</javaee:handler-name>
          <javaee:handler-class>nl.jnc.common.services.wssecurity.UserNameTokenProfileMessageHandler</javaee:handler-class>
        </javaee:handler>
      </javaee:handler-chain>
    </post-handler-chains>
  </endpoint-config>



I did not investigate how to link the authenticated user (principal) and associated roles to the WebServiceContext. I directly refer to the SecurityAssociation class which stores Subject and Principal in threadlocal.
In the SEI implementaion is use the princiap and roles like this (cloul be improved):

private boolean isUserInRole(String roleName) {

Subject sub = SecurityAssociation.getSubject();
if (sub != null) {
Set<Principal> set = SecurityAssociation.getSubject().getPrincipals();
if (set!= null) {
for (Principal p : set) {
if (p instanceof SimpleGroup) {
SimpleGroup ng = (SimpleGroup) p;
Enumeration mem = ng.members();
while (mem.hasMoreElements()) {
Principal p1 = (Principal) mem.nextElement();
if (p1.getName().equalsIgnoreCase(roleName)) return true;
}
}
}
}
}
return false;

}


Attached you will find the rest. You are free to use it the way you like.
In the WsSecurityManager you will also find some a method to authenticate a user with a certificate but this is not tested.
I use the security implementation against an LDAP (LdapLoginModule). The users are system accounts, the data(sections) returned by the service are governed by the roles a system users has.
