As we know the Spring Security OAuth 2.0 project has bee depreciated and now it's Spring Security 5.
My question is related with Authorisation Server for grant_type: authorization_code. Spring team is also working on standalone project for Authorization Server. So most of the codebase in Spring Security project is depreciated for Authorization Server.
Still, I've couple of questions for endpoints with authorization_code flow in Spring Security 2.0/5.
OAuth 2.0:
Can you please let me know, which endpoints are supported for below use cases in Authorization Flow:
Login Button: ask the customised authorization url from Authorization Server.
User logged-in: once end-user logged-in (authenticate), need to authorise with registered client application and provide the code in the callback URI.
Request For Access Token: once the code has been received in previous step, it should use the code to get the access token.
Please let me know which endpoints are meant to be used in Spring Security OAuth 2.0/5 for above use cases. Based on my research, I've found these endpoints:
/oauth/token: get the access token
/oauth/token_key: produces JWT encoded token values
/oauth/check_token: validate the access token
Can you please let me know which endpoint dedicated for authorisation before end-user authenticate in use case #1. And after end-user authentication in use case #2.
Any help would be appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Adnan

I'm trying to extend my home made OAuth2 Authorization Server with the OpenID Connect. At the moment, the Server works fine and successfully issues an access token.
What I need is that the token endpoint returns an id_token along with the access_token.
The Authorization Server is a Spring boot (2.5) app, which implements the authorization code flow using following oauth dependencies.
spring-security-oauth2
spring-security-oauth2-autoconfigure
spring-security-jwt
spring-security-oauth2-jose
Is there some standard way to configure an OAuth2 Spring Server so it provides the OpenID Connect features?
Thanks in advance for an example code and/or useful documenation.
The Spring team are working on a new OAuth server, that provides OIDC capability. It's still very early days, but it is useable.
See here for the code, that includes a set of samples:
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-authorization-server
I want to implement in backend rest safely in oauth2 + jwt.
I want to implement the following authentication flow in spring boot, but I am not sure how to do it:
1. The user is authenticated.
2. That request is received and with that login and password a ws that validates the credentials is attacked.
3. If it is correct, a series of data and permissions are searched in the database
4. If it is correct, access is granted and the jwt token is generated
I'm lost with this and as much as I read I can't know how I can do it.
Any manual or post I can follow?
Are you running your own (a custom) Auth server or is the plan to allow users to authenticate via a provider such as Google, Facebook etc? If its the later, then you cannot expect to receive user / password credentials at all so you might have misunderstood the OAuth flow. You will typically receive an 'Authorization code' from the provider (e.g. Google).
Also, what do you mean by "a ws that validates the credentials is attacked"?
This Google use-case diagram depicts a common flow. It's part of this guide.
Either way, Spring Boot does not itself deal with OAuth / security, but it has a tight
integration with Spring Security which is a good security framework to use, especially as you're already using Spring. Spring Security can handle OAuth, JWT etc.
A couple of guides that may help to get you started:

I am working on securing a REST API, here is the basic set up (Happy Path) I am working with:
1) UI will request to authenticate with another service, this service will return a JWT to the UI.
2) Once a user of the UI is done with their work, they will make a request to the REST API that I am tasked with securing using a JWT that is passed to me.
3) I will then ensure the JWT is legit, get the users roles and then determine if the user is authorized to access that endpoint (perform the requested function).
I am sure this is possible, but my past experience with Spring Security wasn't dealing with JWT or Authorization only.
Would it be a correct approach to implement Authentication and Authorization, get that working and then back out the Authentication part?
Thank you for your kind help!
I suggest that you take a look at the Spring Security OAuth2 project. It makes this kind of thing fairly easy.
In particular, have a look at this section about using JWT
I am new to spring boot and trying to implement oauth2 client with facebook as oauth2 provider.
I already have a traditional JWT token authentication in place which is configured with in #EnableWebSecurity with default authentication manager and custome JWT token generator.
is it really required to configure AuthorizationServer and
ResourceServer in above scenario?
if not then why my code always returns me only Code and state from facebook to call back URL.
Please have a look into the code here
Oauth2 = Authorization delegation protocol NOT an authentication one.
If you want to use FaceBook and Google as identity provider then you must go with an identity federation protocol, ie OpenId Connect (OIDC).
This last add an authentication layer (using JWT id token) above oauth2 authorization layer.
Regarding more specifically your question (which is not very clear) about the spring security configuration part , it seems that the current oauth2 server implementation (AuthorizationServer and ResourceServer you're talking about are part of it) is not suitable as it is to implement an OIDC identity provider)
Regarding the code and state returned to the callback URL, it's part of the oauth2 authorization code flow and it's perfectly normal, you then have to exchange the retrieved code against an access token using the authorization server token endpoint.
(state is just here to allow to transmit an information for example a tenant id, across the oauth2 whole flow).
Here is really well written oauth2 vulgarization article.
I'm looking for a simple example of a spring security configuration (Java config preferred) on how I can secure my REST Services with Spring-Security and SAML.
There's an Web Application Firewall in front which will only pass requests which contain a valid SAML Token or otherwise redirects to IDP to get one. So I don't have to look if the user is logged in or redirect the user if not so to the IDP.
The only thing I'll need to do is allow only authenticated requests to all REST Services, read the user from SAML-Token and check that the Token is from Airlock.
Later I'll need to add ACL support for more fine granular rights of the user on specific services but I'm already lost with the first part of the integration work in spring security. Any help would be welcome :)
the magic happens here: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-security-saml/blob/master/core/src/main/java/org/springframework/security/saml/SAMLProcessingFilter.java
in attemptAuthentication(), it gets the SAML message, parse it and gets the token (SAMLAuthenticationToken). Then it tries to authenticate the user: authenticate(token);
