Project Modules

There are no modules declared in this project.

Build Known Vulnerabilities Maven Central

token-support

This project provides several standalone modules supporting common security token handling in Java and Kotlin applications, e.g. either as an OAuth 2.0 client or a OAuth 2.0 Resource Server with JWT validation.

The main motivation behind the project is to support multiple token issuers/identity providers with as much ease as possible.

The modules are roughly split in two:

  • token-client-* (support for multiple OAuth 2.0 grants/flows as a client)
  • token-validation-* (support for JWT token validation following best practice and OAuth 2.0 specifications)

The client and validation modules provide a core module and specific "wrapper" implementations for some well known libraries such as Spring Boot, JAX-RS and KTOR.

Main components

This project is mainly composed of modules wrapping other well known libraries. Currently there is support for:

  • Spring Boot and Spring Web MVC
  • JAX-RS
  • Plain Java
  • Kotlin with ktor

token-validation-core

Provides the core token validation support, using the Nimbus OAuth 2.0 SDK with OpenID Connect extensions. Token signing keys are retrieved from the external issuer and cached in the JwtTokenValidator, using the com.nimbusds.openid.connect.sdk.validators.IDTokenValidator (this validator also works well for validating access_tokens). Token signing keys will be fetched from the jwt_keys endpoint configured in the provider configuration metadata endpoint (e.g. /.well-known/openid-configuration) when required (e.g. new signing keys are detected).

This module can be used standalone (e.g. if you do not use Spring or JAX-RS). You will however need to code the part to "hook in" enforcement and trigger the token validation (e.g. as done in the token-validation-filter module). If you use Spring, JAX-RS or Ktor you should use the specific module for your framework.

token-validation-filter

Simple servlet filter using the token-validation-core components for validating tokens on inbound HTTP requests. Can be used standalone but is more commonly used together with Spring or JAX-RS.

token-validation-spring

Spring Boot (Spring Web) specific wrapper around token-validation-core and token-validation-filter providing auto configuration of the relevant components. To enable token validation for a spring boot application, simply annotate your SpringApplication class or any Spring Configuration class with @EnableJwtTokenValidation. Optionally list the packages or classses you dont want token validations for (e.g. error controllers). The package org.springframework - e.g. @EnableJwtTokenValidation(ignore="org.springframework") is listed as ignored by default if you dont specify a ignore list. Use the @Unprotected or @Protected/@ProtectedWithClaims annotations at rest controller method/class level to indicate if token validation is required or not.

There is a short sample below, however more detailed samples are available in the token-validation-spring-demo module.

SpringApplication sample

This annotation will enable token validation and token transportation/propagation through the service

@SpringBootApplication
@EnableJwtTokenValidation
public class ProductServiceApplication {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		SpringApplication.run(ProductServiceApplication.class, args);
	}
}

Rest controller sample

This example shows

  • First method - An unprotected endpoint. No token is required to use this endpoint.
  • Second method - A protected endpoint. This endpoint will require a valid token from the "employee" issuer.
  • Third method - A protected endpoint. This endpoint will require a valid token from one of the configured issuers.
  • Fourth method - A non-annotated endpoint. This endpoint will not be accessible from outside the server (will return a 501 NOT_IMPLEMENTED).
@RestController
class ProductController {
	
	private final ProductService productService;
  
  ProductController(ProductService productService){
    this.productService = productService;
  }
	
	@Unprotected
	@RequestMapping(value = "/product/{id}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
	public Product read(@PathVariable("id") String id) {
		return productService.read(id);
	}
	
	@Protected(issuer="employee")
	@RequestMapping(value = "/product", method = RequestMethod.POST)
	public Product create(@RequestBody Product product) {		
		return productService.create(product);
	}

	@Protected
	@RequestMapping(value = "/product/sample", method = RequestMethod.GET)
	public Product sample() {
		Product product = Product.sample();
		product.setId(UUID.randomUUID().toString());
		return product;
	}

	@RequestMapping(value = "/product/{id}/variant", method = RequestMethod.GET)
	public Variant readVariant(@PathVariable("id") String id) {
		return productService.readVariant(id);
	}

}

token-validation-jaxrs

JAX-RS wrapper around token-validation-core and token-validation-filter. Two steps are necessary to enable token validation:

  • Register the servlet filter JaxrsJwtTokenValidationFilter with your servlet container to pick up the token of incoming requests
  • Register the JwtTokenContainerRequestFilter with your Application (plain JAX-RS) or ResourceConfig (Jersey)

Use the @Unprotected, @Protected or @ProtectedWithClaims annotations on resource methods and/or classes indicate if token validation is required or not. Method annotations have precedence One additional step is required to pass the token do other services

  • Register JwtTokenClientRequestFilter with your client

Example

Register the servlet filter with your container, as done in spring boots @SpringBootConfiguration in the snippet below. How you get hold of the configuration map of issuers is up to the implementor.

    @Bean
    public FilterRegistrationBean<JwtTokenValidationFilter> jwtTokenValidationFilterBean(MultiIssuerConfiguraton config) {
        return new FilterRegistrationBean<>(new JaxrsJwtTokenValidationFilter(config));
    }

    @Bean
    public MultiIssuerConfiguraton multiIssuerConfiguration(Map<String, IssuerProperties> issuerConfiguration, ProxyAwareResourceRetriever resourceRetriever) {
        return new MultiIssuerConfiguraton(issuerConfiguration, resourceRetriever);
    }

    @Bean
    public ProxyAwareResourceRetriever proxyAwareResourceRetriever() {
        return new ProxyAwareResourceRetriever();
    }

How you configure the servlet filter depends on how you launch your app, e.g. if you use spring or not, and whether you use tomcat or jetty

Configure jersey

There are two options, explicit registering of resources

new ResourceConfig()
  .register(JwtTokenContainerRequestFilter.class)
  // ...
  .register(Resource.class);

or let jersey scan for Resources and/or @Provider-annotated classes

new ResourceConfig()
  .packages("no.nav.security.token.support.jaxrs", "x.y.z.resourcepackage");

Rest controller sample with method annotations

This example shows

  • First method - An unprotected endpoint. No token is required to use this endpoint.
  • Second method - A protected endpoint. This endpoint will require a valid token from the "employee" issuer.
  • Third method - A protected endpoint. This endpoint will require a valid token from one of the configured issuers.
  • Fourth method - A non-annotated endpoint. This endpoint will not be accessible from outside the server (will return a 501 NOT_IMPLEMENTED).
@Path("/rest")
public class ProductResource {
	
    // ...
	
  @GET
  @PATH("/product/")
  @Unprotected
  public List<Product> list() {
    return service.list();
  }
	
  @POST
  @PATH("/product")
  @Protected
  public Product add(Product product) {		
    return service.create(product);
  }
	
  @DELETE
  @PATH("/product/{id}")
  @ProtectedWithClaims(issuer = "manager", claimMap = { "acr=Level4" })
  public void add(String id) {		
    return service.delete(id);   
  }

}

        <artifactId>token-validation-core</artifactId>
        <version>${token-support.version}</version>
    </dependency>

Required properties (yaml or properties)

  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname] - all properties relevant for a particular issuer must be listed under a short name for that issuer (not the actual issuer value from the token, but a chosen name to represent config for the actual issuer) you trust, e.g. citizen or employee
  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].discoveryurl - The identity provider configuration/discovery endpoint (metadata)
  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].accepted_audience - The value of the audience (aud) claim in the JWT token. For OIDC it is the client ID of the client responsible for acquiring the token, in OAuth 2.0 it should be the identifier for you api.
  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].cookiename - The value of the cookie containing a ID token (not required, only necessary if your api receives calls directly from a browser)
  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].validation.optional-claims - A comma separated list of optional claims that will be excluded from default claims.
  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].jwks-cache.lifespan - Cache the retrieved JWK keys to speed up subsequent look-ups. A non-negative lifespan expressed in minutes. (Default 15 min)
  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].jwks-cache.refreshtime - A non-negative refresh time expressed in minutes. (Default 5 min)

"Corporate" proxy support per issuer

Each issuer can be configured to use or not use a proxy by specifying the following properties:

  • no.nav.security.jwt.issuer.[issuer shortname].proxyurl - The full url of the proxy, e.g. http://proxyhost:8088

token-client-core

Provides core OAuth 2.0 client support, supporting the following OAuth 2.0 grants:

  • jwt_bearer
  • client_credentials
  • token_exchange

This module can be used standalone (e.g. if you do not use Spring or Ktor). You will however need to code the part to "hook in" the client and trigger the token retrieval. If you use Spring you should use the specific wrapper module.

When requesting a token from an OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server the client must authenticate itself with one of the following client authentication methods:

  • private_key_jwt
  • client_secret_post
  • client_secret_basic

The module will choose the client authentication method based on provided configuration in the class ClientProperties.

Use the interface JwtBearerTokenResolver to supply a JWT that should be exchanged for another, i.e. in jwt_bearer or token_exchange grants. The OAuth2HttpClient interface lets you provide a HTTP client of your choosing to perform the actual POST request to the OAuth 2.0 server.

token-client-spring

Spring Boot wrapper for the module token-client-core, providing auto configuration for Spring.
Simply annotate your SpringApplication class or any Spring Configuration class with EnableOAuth2Client. Enable caching for the OAuth 2.0 access_token response with cacheEnabled = true and configurable cacheEvictSkew and cacheMaximumSize properties.

@EnableOAuth2Client(cacheEnabled = true)
@Configuration
public class Configuration {
    // ...
}

Detailed samples are available in the token-client-spring-demo module.
