[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of Security on JBoss] - JAAS : Subject not populated
We have a problem in using JAAS during migration from Jboss-3.2.3 to JBoss-4.0.5.GA. The
same approach is working in JBoss-3.2.3 version.
The reason for above I found is SecurityAssociation is not populated for JBoss-4.0.5.GA.
Ear Deployment/JAAS Configurations details:
We have two .ear deployed in the same server. First ear contains all EJBs. Second ear
contains one war file through which we monitor the system. We are using customized login
module and this login module is invoked properly and subject is populated.
subject.getPrivateCredentials().add(userBean);
logger.info("Adding role '" + userBean.getRole() +
"'to context");
userRoles.addMember(new SimplePrincipal(userBean.getRole()));
Login module returns true. But from action class, when we call below code subject is
null.

EntryUser user = EISDataHelper().getUser();
signature of getUser is as below:
public EntryUserBean getUser() throws CustodyException,
RemoteException
{
Subject subj = SecurityAssociation.getSubject();
//Here subject is null(in JBoss-4.0.5.GA), while same code is running in JBoss-3.2.3
if (subj == null)
{
logger.debug("subject is null");
return null;
}
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration for login module in login-config.xml is as below :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<application-policy name="settlement">
<login-module
code="com.db.dcs.model.settlements.jboss.security.LdapDBLoginModule"
flag="required">
<module-option
name="validatePWD">true</module-option>
</login-module>
</application-policy>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration for JAAS in conf/jboss-service.xml is as below :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<!--
====================================================================
-->
<!-- Security
-->
<!--
====================================================================
-->
jboss.security:service=XMLLoginConfig
login-config.xml
<!-- JAAS security manager and realm mapping -->
<!-- change JaasSecurityManager by JaasSecurityDomain -->
org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityDomain
<!--JaasSecurityDomain -->
jboss.security:service=JaasSecurityManager
${jboss.server.home.dir}/ssl/.keystore
gft01abc
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration for SSL in deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/server.xml is as below :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuration for security domain in
deploy/settlement-webapp.ear/settlement-webapp.war/jboss-web.xml is as below :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<jboss-web>
<security-domain>java:/jaas/settlement</security-domain>
</jboss-web>
