AGENDA

  1. Duration (or Instant/DateTime) parsing - JAXP vs. java.time

Attendees:

 

Brent

  • OSJ-265 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • Unless we (really) bind our rules, tentative plan would be to do a new minor release of java-support 7.5.0, and a patch release of java-opensaml (and possibly java-identity-provider).  Concerns?

 

Daniel

  • OSJ-269 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • Fighting with standing up MySQL for testing

  • IDP-1357 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • Testing system properties

    • Guiding some development for ldaptive 2.0

Henri

  • Finishing OIDC flow-tests, polishing, ...

  • Aiming at releasing the first official OIDC plugin version before end of March

Ian

  • Maven version now enforced: 

    JPAR-118 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • Replaces older prerequisites element, so enforcing version 3.3.1

    • 3.3.1 was 2015-03-18, so five years ago.

    • I'd like to enforce something newer in the interests of consistent builds.

    • Maven versions: https://maven.apache.org/docs/history.html 

 

Marvin

 

Phil

  • Work on IDP-1191.

    • Since servlet spec 3.0 (session tracking config is a bit more standardised since 3.0), setting session tracking mode to COOKIE (and only that) in web.xml, should not expose jsessionid unless bug. This is already being set by the IdP.

    • Not sure the impact of stolen JSESSIONID, ship_idp_session is more a form of ambient authority. Although is used by webflow for conversation state and shib session manager internals (needs more looking into)

    • Looked at the potential to steal cookies with injected JavaScript - unlikely - although httpOnly bypasses have existed in the past. Also injected script could steal any anti-csrf token if used - but can not see how JavaScript could be injected into the views (dynamic stuff is being escaped).

    • Will look at anti-csrf token - and or the impact of session surfing, as not sure how useful that is.

    • Will write something small up unless somebody tells me I am wasting time.

 

Rod

  • Out for much of last week.

  • Working through deprecations in custom schemas

Scott

  • LDAP test behavior works under Maven now, still get failures during "whole package" testing under Eclipse

  • JSPT-79 - Getting issue details... STATUS

    • Most uses of @Duration now gone, some long APIs left to clean up

    • Possible future work item: a standardized Spring context for tests to match runtime environment

  • Next up is ProfileConfig API consistency/cleanup

Tom

  • Wrangling Jenkins, Java. Still having trouble with Java 11 and Windows
