Make keystore optional in SSO configuration
-------------------------------------------
Key: WFLY-9614
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-9614
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Security, Web (Undertow)
Affects Versions: 11.0.0.Final
Reporter: Martin Choma
Keystore is required [1], thus signing logout message by default.
Questionable is if security brought by this is worth default command complexity as:
* Integrity of messages could be achieved on node to node communication level
* If message was not signed, attacker needs to know http session id to do a harm. Once
attacker knows http session id, he can do a lot more useful attacks then logout user.
Some long communication on topic occured on Wildfly Elytron hipchat room 2017-12-7 -
