             Summary: Client Cert authentication using certificate passed from a proxy
                 Key: ELY-439
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ELY-439
             Project: WildFly Elytron
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: HTTP
            Reporter: Darran Lofthouse
            Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
             Fix For: 1.1.0.Beta5


Undertow contains a feature where by the Proxy server can handle SSL and pass the certificate chain to Undertow - this is then used for the actual client cert authentication.

We need to cover this type of scenario within our generic HTTP authentication framework.

We could further wrap the SSLSession in a similar way Undertow does - or we could make the chain availbale as a fall back.

Related to this we also need to work on the different attachment contexts, that may affect how we consider SSLSession attachments.
