Tried using the below spring properties:
server.servlet.session.cookie.http-only=true
server.servlet.session.cookie.secure=true
Still not able to see secure flag in response header for Set Cookie.

Setting end session endpoint

With a Spring Boot client configured in the DMZ and Spring Security OAuth configured using:
issuer-uri: https://authentication_server/auth/realms/my-realm
I get this error from Spring Security:
The Issuer "https://external_url/auth/realms/my-realm" provided in the configuration metadata did not match the requested issuer "https://authentication_server/auth/realms/my-realm
From this post I have learned that I need to specify authorization-uri, token-uri and jwk-set-uri instead of issuer-uri, and then it also works.
authorization-uri: https://external_url/auth/realms/my-realm/protocol/openid-connect/auth
token-uri: https://authentication_server/auth/realms/my-realm/protocol/openid-connect/token
jwk-set-uri: https://authentication_server/auth/realms/my-realm/protocol/openid-connect/certs
(I do not get why Spring Security cannot auto-configure with the same values from the issuer-uri when it works setting the values individually)
Now the problem is that logout stops working. When using issuer-uri the OAuth is auto-configured and end_session_endpoint is fetched from the answer, but when specifying each setting there is no way to specify the end_session_endpoint.
Is this an outstanding issue in Spring Security OAuth, or do I need to configure it differently?
I had to make a work around for this. With little time I started by copying the existing OidcClientInitiatedLogoutSuccessHandler which I already were using in configuring LogoutRedirectUri.
I simply copied the class and changed the implementation of the method endSessionEndpoint() to return the URI which is returned by our OAuth server as end_session_endpoint.
This issue is tracked in spring-security GitHub.
Probable fix will be allowing to add "Additional attributes for ClientRegistration and ProviderDetails".

Adding http-only and secure property as true sets only secure attribute on cookie in spring boot

Setting following properties works on localhost but not on server
server.session.cookie.http-only=true
server.session.cookie.secure=true
On server the cookie is only set as secure not as HTTPOnly.
The application is built in spring boot with embedded tomcat.
The cookie on localhost is being set as
JSESSIONID
value "value"
path "/"
secure true
httpOnly true
On server it is
JSESSIONID
value "value"
path "/"
secure true
Thanks!

404 when do logout in Spring Security Rest Plugin for Grails

I'm setting the security system on my project (Grails - Angularjs) with Spring Security Rest Plugin v1.5.4 (using spring security core 2.0.0) for Grails 2.4.4. Doc about this plugin can be found here.
I'm testing the login and logout with postman chrome rest client and I'm able to do a login OK, but I'm getting a 404 when I do logout.
In the documentation clearly says:
The logout filter exposes an endpoint for deleting tokens. It will
read the token from an HTTP header. If found, will delete it from the
storage, sending a 200 response. Otherwise, it will send a 404
response
You can configure it in Config.groovy using this properties:
Config key...................................................................................Default
value
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rest.logout.endpointUrl....................../api/logout
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rest.token.validation.headerName....X-Auth-Token
So, after doing a login successfully, I tried to do a logout to that url (my_host_url/api/logout) with a GET method and sending a header X-Auth-Token with the token I got previously from login.
But I keep getting a 404. See image below
Edit: I'm setting the chain map like this (in order to get a stateless behavior):
grails.plugin.springsecurity.filterChain.chainMap = [
'/api/**': 'JOINED_FILTERS,-exceptionTranslationFilter,-authenticationProcessingFilter,-securityContextPersistenceFilter,-rememberMeAuthenticationFilter', // Stateless chain
'/**': 'JOINED_FILTERS,-restTokenValidationFilter,-restExceptionTranslationFilter' // Traditional chain
]
So. What am I doing wrong here, or what am I missing?
Thanks in advance!
You missed another excerpt from the docs. It's a warning message literally before the chunk you quoted, and says:
Logout is not possible when using JWT tokens (the default strategy), as no state is kept in the server.
If you still want to have logout, you can provide your own implementation by creating a subclass of JwtTokenStorageService and overriding the methods storeToken and removeToken. Then, register your implementation in resources.groovy as tokenStorageService.

grails spring security rest plugin

I'm trying restful spring security rest plugin from https://github.com/dmahapatro/grails-spring-security-rest-sample.git
I upgrade grails to 2.3.7 and spring security rest to 1.3.4. And all running smoothly.
I'm using postman for testing the rest login.
url: http://localhost:8080/grails-spring-security-rest-sample/api/login
form-data: username = user, password = pass
But there's always return error code 400 Bad Request.
Is there something wrong with the config or test?
Thanks,
Didin
This is a POST request with content-type as application/json. Refer dev tool again during the call to /api/login, it should be clear.
This is driven by a setting provided by the plugin as below:
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rest.login.useJsonCredentials = true
If you wish to pass it as url param then switch the above off (in the app). By default setting is to use request url parameter as:
//default is true
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rest.login.useRequestParamsCredentials = true
In that case the request could look like:
http://localhost:8080/grails-spring-security-rest-sample/api/login?username=user&password=pass
Parameter name for username and password can also be customized by these settings:
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rest.login.usernameParameter=customusername
grails.plugin.springsecurity.rest.login.passwordParameter=custompassword

Disable jsessionid via http header (cookie) in Tomcat 7

I'm looking to disable jsessionid from being used in the https headers.
Is there a way to turn this off or disable this being set as a cookie in tomcat 7?
I either want the jsessionid to arrive embedded into a GET method url name value pairs or to be part of a POST request name value pairs.
I know all the advantages and disadvantages of using cookie based sessioning and url rewriting but I have specific needs for specific impl of restful web services.
I need tomcat 7 to accept jsessionid without using the http header: jsessionid.
Thanks.
UPDATE:
so I looked around some more and found this which is implemented using the web.xml conf.
However the following doesn't seem to work with Tomcat 7.
<session-config>
<tracking-mode>URL</tracking-mode>
</session-config>
is it a case of TC7 not fully implementing the servlet 3.0 spec?
The web.xml setting works for me with Tomcat 7.0.20.
Log and check the effective (and maybe the default) session tracking modes:
logger.info("default STM: {}" , servletContext.getDefaultSessionTrackingModes());
logger.info("effective STM: {}" , servletContext.getEffectiveSessionTrackingModes());
Maybe your app override somewhere in the code the session tracking modes. An example:
final Set<SessionTrackingMode> trackingModes =
Collections.singleton(SessionTrackingMode.COOKIE);
servletContext.setSessionTrackingModes(trackingModes);
Check ServletContext.setSessionTrackingModes() calls in your code.
It's also possible to set default session tracking modes in the Tomcat's context settings but I found that web.xml settings override them.
