Phil

  • JWEBAUTHN-29 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • Any error when canonicalizing the username input into the registration flow is just ignored. It is only used as a way to indicate if the user has FIDO credentials for the MFA logic to use.

  • JWEBAUTHN-27 - Getting issue details... STATUS (Dev branch)

    • Added customisable policies to accept or reject authenticators that create credentials during registration e.g. authenticator provider allow list

      • Can not yet do this on the supported options (such as UserVerification) of an authenticator in metadata, the metadata spec is wrong and the Yubico libraries are out of synch with it.

    • Added customisable ‘Inspectors’ that can inspect the authenticator during registration and record capabilities/properties in the credential that gets stored. For example, this authenticator (software say) should only be allowed as a second factor and not a sole factor.

    • Adding a policy engine for rejecting authenticators/credentials being used during authentication e.g. this is a sole factor authentication, but this credential was created by an authenticator that can only be used as a second factor.

Rod

Its all about the Jetty plugin.

  • Bludgeoned (I used the verb advisedly) a bat file to configure jetty as a system service on windows

    • Much testing and fine tuning needed

  • Started the documentation.

    • Now is not the time to publish it (I believe)

    • I need someone else to write the unix bits

    • And review always welcome

Scott

  • SP patch getting closer to ready, Xerces 3.3.0 should be voted out next week or the week after.

    • Planning to move the build for Windows up to the latest everything, OpenSSL 3.3.2, etc., so needs more testing than usual.

    • OpenSSL 3.3 Windows debug build emits a ton of warnings about corrupt debugging info, not sure what it means.

  • Unit testing of the new SP’s SAML ACS flow ongoing

    • Most of the servlet request access challenges there seem to be solved, required some changes to OpenSAML to bypass some checks and assumptions

    • The SP Servlet object injection model is basically a try/finally around a call to set and clear the SP’s thread local servlet objects, so usually the model is to subclass an OpenSAML class, and call doExecute, doDecode, etc. in the try clause.

    • Not sure how much I can unit test the artifact binding, maybe something like what CAS tests do with Jetty, not sure.

Tom

  • IDP-2323 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • wrote a test for this with Postgres + HikariCP

    • current behavior is to throw an uncaught runtime exception and present error page to user if the index storage record has an invalid value

    • method throwing exception is : AbstractConsentIndexedStorageAction#getStorageKeysFromIndex(), this is the index record whose value are all of the storage record keys

    • three use cases

      • addKeyToStorageIndex

      • removeKeyFromStorageIndex

      • pruneStorageRecords

    • probably should not throw the runtime exception but instead overwrite the index record with whatever data is current

      • may lead to orphaned records, so log to error for admin to do cleanup ?
