[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-6864) Subject not populated with groups/roles when authenticated via JASPIC

Subject not populated with groups/roles when authenticated via JASPIC --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-6864 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-6864 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Security Reporter: Arjan t Assignee: James Perkins Labels: jacc, jaspic After having authenticated via JASPIC, requesting the current {{Subject}} via JACC and then using that for permission checks fails. For instance the following code will always set {{hasAccess}} to false given that "/protected/*" requires a role and the authenticated user is in that role: {code:java} Subject subject = (Subject) PolicyContext.getContext("javax.security.auth.Subject.container"); boolean hasAccess = Policy.getPolicy().implies( new ProtectionDomain( new CodeSource(null, (Certificate[]) null), null, null, subject.getPrincipals().toArray(new Principal[subject.getPrincipals().size()]) ), new WebResourcePermission("/protected/Servlet", "GET")) ; {code} As it appears, the problem originates from the fact that {{subject.getPrincipals()}} does not contain the roles. This can be traced back to {{org.jboss.security.auth.callback.JASPICallbackHandler.handleCallBack}}, where it becomes clear that the roles are only put into the "util", but not in the "authenticatedSubject": {code:java} String[] rolesArray = groupPrincipalCallback.getGroups(); int sizeOfRoles = rolesArray != null ? rolesArray.length : 0; if( sizeOfRoles > 0 ) { List<Role> rolesList = new ArrayList<Role>(); for( int i = 0; i < sizeOfRoles ; i++ ) { Role role = new SimpleRole( rolesArray[ i ] ); rolesList.add( role ); } RoleGroup roles = new SimpleRoleGroup( SecurityConstants.ROLES_IDENTIFIER, rolesList ); // if the current security context already has roles, we merge them with the incoming roles. RoleGroup currentRoles = currentSC.getUtil().getRoles(); // *** ROLES ARE ONLY SET HERE *** if (currentRoles != null) { currentRoles.addAll(roles.getRoles()); } else { currentSC.getUtil().setRoles( roles ); } } // *** BELOW THIS LINE ROLES ARE NOT REFERENCED ANYMORE // *** SUBJECT IS NOT POPULATED WITH ANY ROLE INFO Subject subject = groupPrincipalCallback.getSubject(); if( subject != null ) { // if the current security context already has an associated subject, we merge it with the incoming subject. Subject currentSubject = currentSC.getSubjectInfo().getAuthenticatedSubject(); if (currentSubject != null) { subject.getPrincipals().addAll(currentSubject.getPrincipals()); subject.getPublicCredentials().addAll(currentSubject.getPublicCredentials()); subject.getPrivateCredentials().addAll(currentSubject.getPrivateCredentials()); } currentSC.getSubjectInfo().setAuthenticatedSubject(subject); } {code}
