Cross Realm authorization
by david_christian.herrmann＠daimler.com
Hello,
we implemented a custom REST endpoint using RealmResourceProvider to search for users by their attributes. We then secured the endpoint by using:
AuthenticationManager.AuthResult authResult =
authManager.authenticateBearerToken(session);
if (authResult == null) {
throw new NotAuthorizedException("Bearer token required");
}
And
if(!auth.hasClientRole(client,"view-users")){
throw new NotAuthorizedException("Necessary permission not available");
}
We now have the problem, that we want to access the endpoint with technical users which are in the master realm to separate them from the real end-users.
So the technical users get their access token from the master realm (which contains the necessary resource permissions for the user realm) and then access the endpoint in the user realm.
Here
AuthenticationManager.AuthResult authResult =
authManager.authenticateBearerToken(session);
if (authResult == null) {
throw new NotAuthorizedException("Bearer token required");
}
Always results in unauthorized.
Looking at the code and testing I think with authenticateBearerToken() cross realm authentication is not possible. Correct? Do you have a suggestion how to achieve our goal?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / With kind regards
