WS-Federation sign-in Asp.NET 5 MVC 6 ADFS

11.7k views Asked by At

Hello so I've been trying to achieve WS-Fed SSO on my MVC6 web application, I've read a bit on authentification and all to identify my requirements. I have to use WsFederationAuth so no oauth nor saml protocol would work for me.

Edit : After @Pinpoint suggestion I tried to use owin middleware to achieve the connection, but I will use the full framework DNX451 rather than DNXCore but it's something while waiting for ws-fed to be supported by Vnext.

Pinpoint adapter extension:

 public static class AppBuilderExtensions
    {
#if !DNXCORE50
        public static IApplicationBuilder UseOwinAppBuilder(this IApplicationBuilder app,
            Action<IAppBuilder> configuration)
        {
            if (app == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(app));
            }

            if (configuration == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(configuration));
            }


            return app.UseOwin(setup => setup(next =>
            {
                var builder = new AppBuilder();
                var lifetime = (IApplicationLifetime) app.ApplicationServices.GetService(typeof (IApplicationLifetime));

                var properties = new AppProperties(builder.Properties);
                properties.AppName = app.ApplicationServices.GetApplicationUniqueIdentifier();
                properties.OnAppDisposing = lifetime.ApplicationStopping;
                properties.DefaultApp = next;

                configuration(builder);

                return builder.Build<Func<IDictionary<string, object>, Task>>();
            }));
        }
#endif
    }

And in startup.cs :

    #if !DNXCORE50
            app.UseOwinAppBuilder(owin =>
            {
                owin.UseWsFederationAuthentication(new WsFederationAuthenticationOptions
                {
                    MetadataAddress =
                        "https://mysite.accesscontrol.windows.net/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml",
                    Wtrealm = "http://localhost:62569/",
                    SignInAsAuthenticationType = WsFederationAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationType,
                    AuthenticationType = "adfs",
                    SecurityTokenHandlers = new SecurityTokenHandlerCollection
                    {
                        new EncryptedSecurityTokenHandler
                        {
                            Configuration = new SecurityTokenHandlerConfiguration
                            {
                                IssuerTokenResolver = new X509CertificateStoreTokenResolver(StoreName.My,
                                    StoreLocation.LocalMachine)
                            }
                        },
                        new Saml2SecurityTokenHandler
                        {
                            CertificateValidator = X509CertificateValidator.None,
                            
                        }
                    }
                });
            });
#endif

I can feel I'm getting closer to a solution but it's not yet done. I have trouble in handling the token (after the authentication against the adfs)

I get this error with afaiu the token:

SecurityTokenValidationException: IDX10201: None of the the SecurityTokenHandlers could read the 'securityToken':

As you already figured out, the WS-Federation middleware has not been ported to ASP.NET 5 yet, but don't panic, it will definitely be: https://twitter.com/blowdart/status/610526268908535808

In the meantime, you can use the OWIN/Katana 3 WS-Federation middleware in an ASP.NET 5 application with a tiny IAppBuilder/IApplicationBuilder adapter (like this one: https://github.com/aspnet-contrib/AspNet.Security.OpenIdConnect.Server/blob/vNext/samples/Mvc/Mvc.Server/Extensions/AppBuilderExtensions.cs#L50), but of course, it won't be compatible with dnxcore50.

If you have a recent ADFS version, you could also consider switching to OAuth2.

I found out how to get claims from the http request coming back from ADFS using the prior ASP.NET classes in a way that doesn't touch web.config.

Hopefully this code is useful to someone:

using Microsoft.AspNet.Http;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
using System;
using System.Collections.Specialized;
using System.IdentityModel.Configuration;
using System.IdentityModel.Protocols.WSTrust;
using System.IdentityModel.Selectors;
using System.IdentityModel.Services;
using System.IdentityModel.Tokens;
using System.IO;
using System.Security.Claims;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
using System.ServiceModel.Security;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;

public class FederationHelper
{
    public ClaimsIdentity GetClaimsIdentityFromResponse(IConfigurationRoot configurationRoot, HttpContext context)
    {
        var absoluteUri = string.Concat(
                    context.Request.Scheme,
                    "://",
                    context.Request.Host.ToUriComponent(),
                    context.Request.PathBase.ToUriComponent(),
                    context.Request.Path.ToUriComponent(),
                    context.Request.QueryString.ToUriComponent());

        var values = new NameValueCollection();

        foreach (var item in context.Request.Query)
        {
            values.Add(item.Key, item.Value);
        }

        foreach (var item in context.Request.Form)
        {
            values.Add(item.Key, item.Value);
        }

        var federation = new FederationSettings
        {
            AudienceUri = "http://contoso",
            Endpoint = "http://sts/ls",
            IssuerName = "http://sts/trust",
            IssuerThumbprint = "[thumbprint]",
            Realm = "https://myapp"
        };

        var identityConfiguration = new IdentityConfiguration(false);
        identityConfiguration.AudienceRestriction.AllowedAudienceUris.Add(new Uri(federation.AudienceUri));

        var issuers = new ConfigurationBasedIssuerNameRegistry();
        issuers.ConfiguredTrustedIssuers.Add(federation.IssuerThumbprint, federation.IssuerName);
        identityConfiguration.IssuerNameRegistry = issuers;

        var tokenHandler = new SamlSecurityTokenHandler();

        tokenHandler.Configuration = new SecurityTokenHandlerConfiguration();
        tokenHandler.Configuration.AudienceRestriction.AudienceMode = AudienceUriMode.Always;
        tokenHandler.Configuration.AudienceRestriction.AllowedAudienceUris.Add(new Uri(federation.AudienceUri));
        tokenHandler.Configuration.IssuerNameRegistry = identityConfiguration.IssuerNameRegistry;
        tokenHandler.Configuration.CertificateValidationMode = X509CertificateValidationMode.None;
        tokenHandler.Configuration.RevocationMode = X509RevocationMode.NoCheck;
        tokenHandler.Configuration.CertificateValidator = X509CertificateValidator.None;

        var message = (SignInResponseMessage)WSFederationMessage.CreateFromNameValueCollection(new Uri(absoluteUri), values);
        var token = CreateSecurityToken(tokenHandler, identityConfiguration, message);
        var claims = tokenHandler.ValidateToken(token);

        return claims[0];
    }

    public SecurityToken CreateSecurityToken(SamlSecurityTokenHandler handler, IdentityConfiguration configuration, SignInResponseMessage message)
    {
        var quotas = new XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas();

        using (var reader = XmlDictionaryReader.CreateTextReader(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(message.Result), quotas))
        {
            var serializer = new WSFederationSerializer(reader);
            var context = new WSTrustSerializationContext(configuration.SecurityTokenHandlerCollectionManager);

            var xml = serializer.CreateResponse(message, context).RequestedSecurityToken.SecurityTokenXml.OuterXml;

            return ReadToken(handler, xml, quotas);
        }
    }

    SecurityToken ReadToken(SamlSecurityTokenHandler handler, string xml, XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas quotas)
    {
        using (var reader = new StringReader(xml))
        {
            using (var xmlReader = XmlReader.Create(reader))
            {
                xmlReader.MoveToContent();

                return handler.ReadToken(xmlReader);
            }
        }
    }
}
