Elytron programmatic AuthenticationContext configuration doesn't work for naming client --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-8742 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-8742 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Naming, Security Reporter: Josef Cacek Assignee: David Lloyd Priority: Blocker Naming client doesn't handle correctly the Elytron AuthenticationContext API. * if the API is used then authentication fails (SASL mech is not configured as expected) - it fails in both cases: wildfly-config.xml present or not. {code:java} AuthenticationContext.empty() .with(MatchRule.ALL, AuthenticationConfiguration.EMPTY.useDefaultProviders().allowSaslMechanisms("ANONYMOUS")) .run(() -> { doLookup("http-remoting://127.0.0.1:8080"); }); {code} * if the API is not used and wildfly-config.xml is present, then the client works correctly {code:java} doLookup("http-remoting://127.0.0.1:8080"); {code} {code:xml} <configuration> <authentication-client xmlns="urn:elytron:1.0"> <authentication-rules> <rule use-configuration="authn" /> </authentication-rules> <authentication-configurations> <configuration name="authn"> <allow-sasl-mechanisms names="ANONYMOUS"/> <use-service-loader-providers /> </configuration> </authentication-configurations> </authentication-client> </configuration> {code} This blocks RFEs EAP7-567 and EAP7-284.
