Subject: Re: [keycloak-dev] Rest password can cause cookie not found
Wouldn't this work?
1) store "state" of state cookie in user session.
2) embed user session and state of state cookie in URL
Of course this screws up your "shorter URL" crusade.
I'm not following - the problem isn't remembering the state
variable in Keycloak, that's already sorted as we already store all
the query params passed by the client in the client session (state,
redirect_uri, etc). The problem is storing it on the adapter side.
I think I get it...
1. Send email
2. Close browser
3. Open browser
4. Click email link
5. Reset password
6. Redirect back to app
7. App barfs because of state cookie
Persistent state cookie sounds like cleanest and simplest solution. I
just worry we'll introduce different bugs, or if we're opening up some
kind of security hole. Maybe I'm just paranoid.
That doesn't work if the user uses two different browsers. This is
the case in a lot of companies (at least in Switzerland :)) where the
users are forced to use ie (default) but rather work with firefox.
Unless we extend the protocol, or don’t redirect from the email, I
don’t see a fix.
If the password reset process would redirect without the code and state
param, than the adapter would redirect back to the keycloak, and
keycloak can authenticate the user with its identity cookie…
But I don’t know if that is ok with the protocol.

So maybe have a session cookie that is set by the auth server. If that
cookie is set when clicking the email url, redirect with code, if not,
redirect without it.

 
That sounds good, what do the other think about this fallback option?
I can update the JIRA issue if anybody is happy with that solution.
