Filters

Filter objects intercept requests and responses during processing, and change them as follows:

Leave the request, response, and contexts unchanged. For example, the filter can simply can log the context as it passes through the filter.
In the request flow, change any aspect of the request (such as the URL, headers, or entity), or replace the request with a new Request object.
In the response flow, change any aspect of the response (such as the status, headers, or entity), or return a new Response instance

AllowOnlyFilter

Authorizes a request to continue processing if it satisfies at least one of the configured rules. Otherwise, passes the request to the FailureHandler or returns an HTTP 401 Unauthorized, with an empty response body.

This filter manages requests from the last request sender, otherwise called the request from the last hop, or the request from a direct client.

For debugging, configure the AllowOnlyFilter name, and add the following logger to logback.xml, replacing filter_name with the name:

org.forgerock.openig.filter.allow.AllowOnlyFilter.filter_name

For more information, see Managing Logs.

Usage

{
  "name": string,

    "failureHandler": Handler reference
  }
}

Properties

"rules": array of objects, required

An array of one or more rules configuration objects to specify criteria for the request.

When more than one rules configuration object is included in the array, the request must match at least one of the configuration objects.

When more than one property is specified in the rules configuration (for example, from and destination) the request must match criteria for each property.

{
  "rules": [
    {
      "name": configuration expression<string>,
      "from": [ object, ... ],
      "destination": [ object, ... ],
      "when": configuration expression<boolean>
    },
    ...
  ]
}

The IP address of the last request sender must match at least one of the specified IP addresses or IP address ranges.

"resolver": configuration expression<string>, optional:

An expression that returns an IP address as a string. The following example returns an IP address from the first item in X-Forwarded-For:

"resolver": "${request.headers['X-Forwarded-For'][0]}"

Default: Resolve the IP address from the following items, in the following order:

If there is a Forwarded header, use the IP address of the last hop.
Otherwise, if there is an X-Forwarded-For header, use the IP address of the last hop.
Otherwise, use the IP address of the connection.

When this property is configured, the destination port must match at least one entry in the array.

Default: Any port is allowed.

"methods": array of configuration expressions<string>, optional

An array of HTTP methods to match the request.method attribute.

When this property is configured, the request method must match at least one method in the array.

Default: Any method is allowed.

Examples

In the following example, a request is authorized if the last request sender satisfies either of the following conditions:

Certificate subjectDN matches .*CN=test$ or CN=me, and the IP address is in the range 1.2.3.0/24.
IP address is 123.43.56.8.

"from": [
   {
     "certificate": {
          "subjectDNs": [".*CN=test$", "CN=me"]
     },
     "ip": {
       "list": ["1.2.3.0/24"]
     }
   },
   {
     "ip": {
       "list": ["123.43.56.8"]
     }
   },
]

In the following example, a request is authorized if the request destination satisfies all of the following conditions:

The host is myhost1.com or www.myhost1.com
The port is 80.
The method is POST or GET
The path matches /user/*.

"destination": [
  {
    "hosts": ["myhost1.com", "www.myhost1.com"],
    "ports": ["80"],
    "methods": ["POST", "GET"],
    "paths": ["/user/*"]
  }
]

The following example authorizes a request to continue processing if the requests meets the conditions set by either rule1 or rule2:

{
  "type": "AllowOnlyFilter",
  "config": {
    "rules": [
      {
        "name": "rule1",
        "from": [
          {
            "certificate": {
              "subjectDNs": [".*CN=test$", "CN=me"]
            },
            "ip": {
              "list": ["1.2.3.0/24"]
            }
          }
        ],
        "destination": [
          {
            "hosts": ["myhost1.com", "www.myhost1.com"],
            "ports": ["80"],
            "methods": ["POST", "GET"],
            "paths": ["/user/*"]
          }
        ],
        "when": "${request.headers['h1'][0] == '1'}"
      },
      {
        "name":"rule2",
        "when": "${request.headers['h1'][0] == '2'}"
      }
    ]
  }
}

AssignmentFilter

Verifies that a specified condition is met. If the condition is met or if no condition is specified, the value is assigned to the target. Values can be assigned before the request is handled and after the response is handled.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "AssignmentFilter",
  "config": {
    "onRequest": [
      {
        "condition": runtime expression<boolean>,
        "target": lvalue-expression,
        "value": runtime expression
      }, ...
    ],
    "onResponse": [
      {
        "condition": runtime expression<boolean>,
        "target": lvalue-expression,
        "value": runtime expression
      }, ...
    ]
  }
}

Properties

"onRequest": array of objects, optional: Defines a list of assignment bindings to evaluate before the request is handled.
"onResponse": array of objects, optional: Defines a list of assignment bindings to evaluate after the response is handled.
"condition": runtime expression<boolean>, optional: If the expression evaluates true, the value is assigned to the target. If no condition is specified, the value is assigned to the target unconditionally.

Default: No condition is specified.

See also Expressions.
"target": lvalue-expression, required: Expression that yields the target object whose value is to be set.

See also Expressions.
"value": runtime expression, optional: The value to be set in the target. The value can be a string, information from the context, or even a whole map of information.

See also Expressions.

Examples

Adding Info To a Session

The following example assigns a value to a session. Add the filter to a route to prevent IG from clearing up empty JWTSession cookies:

{
  "type": "AssignmentFilter",
  "config": {
    "onRequest": [{
      "target": "${session.authUsername}",
      "value": "I am root"
    }]
  }
}

Capturing and Storing Login Credentials

The following example captures credentials and stores them in the IG session during a login request. Notice that the credentials are captured on the request but are not marked as valid until the response returns a positive 302. The credentials could then be used to log a user in to a different application:

{
  "name": "PortalLoginCaptureFilter",
  "type": "AssignmentFilter",
  "config": {
    "onRequest": [
      {
        "target": "${session.authUsername}",
        "value": "${request.queryParams['username'][0]}"
      },
      {
        "target": "${session.authPassword}",
        "value": "${request.queryParams['password'][0]}"
      },
      {
        "comment": "Authentication has not yet been confirmed.",
        "target": "${session.authConfirmed}",
        "value": "${false}"
      }
    ],
    "onResponse": [
      {
        "condition": "${response.status.code == 302}",
        "target": "${session.authConfirmed}",
        "value": "${true}"
      }
    ]
  }
}

CapturedUserPasswordFilter

Makes an AM password available to IG in the following steps:

Checks for the presence of the SessionInfoContext context, at ${contexts.amSession}.
- If the context is not present, or if sunIdentityUserPassword is null, the CapturedUserPasswordFilter collects session info and properties from AM.
- If the context is present and sunIdentityUserPassword is not null, the CapturedUserPasswordFilter uses that value for the password.
The CapturedUserPasswordFilter decrypts the password and stores it in the CapturedUserPasswordContext, at ${contexts.capturedPassword}.

Supported with AM 5 and later versions, and with AM 6 and later versions when the AES keyType is used to decrypt the password.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
   "type": "CapturedUserPasswordFilter",

"keySecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>, required

The secret ID for the key required decrypt the AM password.

"keyType": configuration expression<enumeration>, optional

Algorithm to decrypt the AM password. Use one of the following values:

DES for DES/ECB/NoPadding
AES AES for JWT-based AES_128_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256 encryption, available from AM 6. For more information, see AES_128_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256 in the IETF JSON Web Algorithms.

Default: DES

"secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference, optional: The SecretsProvider object to query for the JWT session signing or encryption keys. For more information, see SecretsProvider.

Default: The route’s default secret service. For more information, see Default Secrets Object.

"ssoToken": runtime expression<string>, required: Location of the AM SSO token.

CertificateThumbprintFilter

Extracts a Java certificate from a trusted header or from a TLS connection, computes the SHA-256 thumbprint of that certificate, and makes the thumbprint available for the ConfirmationKeyVerifierAccessTokenResolver. Use this filter to enable verification of certificate-bound access_tokens.

CertificateThumbprintFilter computes and makes available the SHA-256 thumbprint of a client certificate as follows:

Evaluates a runtime expression and yields a java.security.cert.Certificate
Hashes the certificate using SHA-256
Base64url-encodes the result
Stores the result in the contexts chain

The runtime expression can access or build a client certificate from any information present at runtime, such as a PEM in a header, or a pre-built certificate.

Use CertificateThumbprintFilter with ConfirmationKeyVerifierAccessTokenResolver when the IG instance is behind the TLS termination point, for example, when IG is running behind a load balancer or other ingress point.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "CertificateThumbprintFilter",
  "config": {
    "certificate": runtime expression<certificate>,
    "failureHandler": Handler reference,
  }
}

Properties

"certificate": runtime expression<certificate>, required

An EL expression which, when evaluated, yields an instance of a java.security.cert.Certificate.

Use the following Functions in the expression to define hash, decoding, and certificate format:

digestSha256, to calculate the SHA-256 hash of the certificate.
decodeBase64url, to decode an incoming base64url-encoded string.
pemCertificate, to convert a PEM representation string into a certificate.

See Examples.

"failureHandler": handler reference, optional: Handler to treat the request on failure.

Provide an inline handler configuration object, or the name of a handler object declared in the heap. See also Handlers.

Default: HTTP 403 Forbidden, the request stops being executed.

Examples

The following example use the certificate associated with the incoming HTTP connection:

{
  "name": "CertificateThumbprintFilter-1",
  "type": "CertificateThumbprintFilter",
  "config": {
    "certificate": "${contexts.client.certificates[0]}"
  }
}

The following example is adapted for a deployment with NGINX as the TLS termination, where NGINX fronts IG. NGINX provides the client certificate associated with its own incoming connection in the x-ssl-client-cert header. The certificate is encoded as PEM, and then url-encoded:

{
  "name": "CertificateThumbprintFilter-2",
  "type": "CertificateThumbprintFilter",
  "config": {
    "certificate": "${pemCertificate(urlDecode(request.headers['x-ssl-client-cert'][0]))}"
  }
}

More Information

org.forgerock.openig.filter.oauth2.cnf.CertificateThumbprintFilter

ClientCredentialsOAuth2ClientFilter

Authenticates OAuth 2.0 clients by using the client’s OAuth 2.0 credentials to obtain an access_token from an authorization server, and injecting the access_token into the inbound request as a Bearer Authorization header.

The filter obtains the client’s access_token by using the client_credentials grant type, where the credentials are sent with the client_secret_basic method. The filter refreshes the access_token as required.

Use this filter in a service-to-service context, where services need to access resources protected by OAuth 2.0.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "ClientCredentialsOAuth2ClientFilter",
  "config": {
    "clientId": configuration expression<sting>,
    "clientSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
    "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference,
    "tokenEndpoint": configuration expression<url>,
    "scopes": [ configuration expression<string>, ... ],
    "handler": Handler reference or inline Handler declaration
  }
}

Properties

"clientId": configuration expression<string>, required: The ID of the OAuth 2.0 client registered with the authorization server.
"clientSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>, required: The ID to use when querying the secretsProvider for the client secret.
"secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference, required: The SecretsProvider to use to resolve queried secrets, such as passwords and cryptographic keys. Provide either the name of a SecretsProvider object defined in the heap, or specify a SecretsProvider object inline.
"tokenEndpoint": configuration expression<url>, required: The URL to the authorization server’s OAuth 2.0 token endpoint.
"scopes": array of configuration expression<string>, optional: Array of scope strings to request from the authorization server.

Default: Empty, request no scopes.
"handler": Handler reference or inline Handler declaration, optional: The Handler to use to access the authorization server’s OAuth 2.0 token endpoint. Provide either the name of a handler object defined in the heap, or specify a handler object inline.

Default: ClientHandler

Log Level

To facilitate debugging secrets for this filter, in logback.xml add a logger defined by the fully qualified package name of the secrets API backend. The following line in logback.xml sets the log level to ALL:

<logger name="org.forgerock.secrets.oauth2" level="ALL">

Examples

For an example, see Access Resources By Using OAuth 2.0 Credentials.

OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token Usage

ConditionalFilter

Verifies that a specified condition is met. If the condition is met, the request is dispatched to a delegate Filter. Otherwise, the delegate Filter is skipped.

Use ConditionalFilter to easily use or skip a Filter depending on whether a condition is met. To easily use or skip a set of Filters, use a ChainOfFilters as the delegate Filter and define a set of Filters. For information, see ChainOfFilters.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "ConditionalFilter",
    "config": {
        "condition": runtime expression<boolean>,
        "delegate": filter reference
   }
}

Properties

"condition": runtime expression<boolean>, required: If the expression evaluates to true, the request is dispatched to the delegate Filter. Otherwise the delegate Filter is skipped.

See also Filters.
"delegate": filter reference, required: Filter to treat the request if the condition expression evaluates as true.

Provide an inline Filter configuration object, or the name of a Filter object defined in the heap.

See also Filters.

Example

The following example tests whether a request finishes with .js or .jpg:

{
  "type": "Chain",
  "config": {
    "filters": [{
      "type": "ConditionalFilter",
      "config": {
        "condition": "${not (matches(request.uri.path, '.js$') or matches(request.uri.path, '.jpg$'))}",
        "delegate": "mySingleSignOnFilter"
      }
    }],
    "handler": "ReverseProxyHandler"
  }
}

If the request is to access a .js file or .jpg file, it skips the delegate SingleSignOnFilter filter declared in the heap, and passes straight to the ReverseProxyHandler.

If the request is to access another type of resource, it must pass through the delegate SingleSignOnFilter for authentication with AM before it can pass to the ReverseProxyHandler.

More Information

org.forgerock.http.filter.ConditionalFilter

ConditionEnforcementFilter

Verifies that a specified condition is met. If the condition is met, the request continues to be executed. Otherwise, the request is referred to a failure handler, or IG returns 403 Forbidden and the request is stopped.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "ConditionEnforcementFilter",
    "config": {
        "condition": runtime expression<boolean>,
        "failureHandler": handler reference
    }
}

Properties

"condition": runtime expression<boolean>, required: If the expression evaluates to true, the request continues to be executed.

See also Expressions.
"failureHandler": handler reference, optional: Handler to treat the request if the condition expression evaluates as false.

Provide an inline handler configuration object, or the name of a handler object declared in the heap. See also Handlers.

Default: HTTP 403 Forbidden, the request stops being executed.

Example

The following example tests whether a request contains a session username. If it does, the request continues to be executed. Otherwise, the request is dispatched to the ConditionFailedHandler failure handler.

{
    "name": "UsernameEnforcementFilter",
    "type": "ConditionEnforcementFilter",
    "config": {
        "condition": "${not empty (session.username)}",
        "failureHandler": "ConditionFailedHandler"
    }
}

More Information

org.forgerock.openig.filter.ConditionEnforcementFilter

ChainOfFilters

Dispatches a request to an ordered list of filters. Use this filter to assemble a list of filters into a single filter that you can then use in different places in the configuration.

A ChainOfFilters can be placed in a configuration anywhere that a filter can be placed.

Unlike Chain, ChainOfFilters does not finish by dispatching the request to a handler. For more information, see Chain.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "ChainOfFilters",
    "config": {
        "filters": [ Filter reference, ... ]
    }
}

Properties

"filters": array of filter references, required: An array of names of filter objects defined in the heap, and inline filter configuration objects.

The chain dispatches the request to these filters in the order they appear in the array.

See also Filters.

Example

{
    "name": "MyChainOfFilters",
    "type": "ChainOfFilters",
    "config": {
        "filters": [ "Filter1", "Filter2" ]
   }
}

CookieFilter

Manages, suppresses, and relays cookies as follows:

Manage, to store cookies from the protected application in the IG session, and include them in later requests.

For requests with a Cookie header, managed cookies are removed so that protected applications don’t see them.

For responses with a Set-Cookie header, managed cookies are removed and then added in a Cookie header to the next request that goes through that filter.

Manage is the default action, and a common choice to manage cookies originating from the protected application.
Suppress, to remove cookies from the request and response. Use this option to hide domain cookies, such as the AM session cookie, that are used by IG but are not usually used by protected applications.
Relay, to transmit cookies freely from the user agent to the remote server, and vice versa.

If a cookie does not appear in one of the three action parameters, then the default action is performed, controlled by setting the defaultAction parameter. If unspecified, the default action is to manage all cookies. In the event a cookie appears in more than one configuration parameter, then it will be selected in the order of precedence: managed, suppressed, relayed.

Usage

{
     "name": string,
     "type": "CookieFilter",
     "config": {
         "managed": [ string, ... ],
         "suppressed": [ string, ... ],
         "relayed": [ string, ... ],
         "defaultAction": string
     }
}

CorsFilter

Configures policies for cross-origin resource sharing (CORS), to allow cross-domain requests from user agents.

Usage

{
   "name": string,
   "type": "CorsFilter",
   "config": {
     "policies": [ configuration expression<object>, ... ],
     "failureHandler": Handler reference
   }
}

Properties

"policies": list of configuration expression<object>, required

A list of policies to apply to the request. A policy is selected when the origin of the request matches the accepted origins of the policy.

When multiple policies are declared, they are tried in the order that they are declared, and the first matching policy is selected.

When no policy matches during a preflight request, the failure handler is invoked or an HTTP 403 is returned.

{
  "acceptedOrigins": [ configuration expression<url>, ... ] or "*",
  "acceptedMethods": [ configuration expression<string>, ... ] or "*",
  "acceptedHeaders": [ configuration expression<string>, ... ] or "*",
  "exposedHeaders": [ configuration expression<string>, ... ],
  "maxAge": configuration expression<duration>,
  "allowCredentials": configuration expression<boolean>
}

"acceptedOrigins": list of configuration expression<url> or "*", required

A comma-separated list of origins, to match the origin of the CORS request. Alternatively, use \* to allow requests from any URL.

Origins are URLs with a scheme, hostname, and optionally a port number, for example, http://www.example.com. If a port number is not defined, origins with no port number or with the default port number (80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS) are accepted.

Examples:

{
  "acceptedOrigins": [
    "http://www.example.com",
    "https://example.org:8433"
  ]
}

{
  "acceptedOrigins": "*"
}

"acceptedMethods": list of configuration expression<string> or "*", optional

A comma-separated list of case-sensitive HTTP method names that are allowed when making CORS requests. Alternatively, use \* to allow requests with any method.

The Access-Control-Request-Method header is used by browsers in preflight requests, to let the server know which HTTP method will be used in the actual request. If a method is allowed, it is returned in the preflight response, in the Access-Control-Allow-Methods header.

Examples:

{
  "acceptedMethods": [
    "GET",
    "POST",
    "PUT",
    "MyCustomMethod"
  ]
}

{
  "acceptedMethods": "*"
}

Default: All methods are rejected.

"acceptedHeaders": list of configuration expression<string> or "*", optional

A comma-separated list of case-insensitive request header names that are allowed when making CORS requests. Alternatively, use \* to allow requests with any header.

The Access-Control-Request-Headers header is used by browsers in preflight requests, to let the server know which HTTP headers might be used in the actual request. If all requested headers are allowed, they are returned in the preflight response, in the Access-Control-Allow-Headers header. If any of the requested headers are not allowed, the Access-Control-Allow-Headers header is omitted.

Examples:

{
  "acceptedHeaders": [
    "iPlanetDirectoryPro",
    "X-OpenAM-Username",
    "X-OpenAM-Password",
    "Accept-API-Version",
    "Content-Type",
    "If-Match",
    "If-None-Match"
  ]
}

{
  "acceptedHeaders": "*"
}

Default: All requested headers are rejected.

"exposedHeaders": list of configuration expression<string>, optional

A comma-separated list of case-insensitive response header names that are returned in the Access-Control-Expose-Headers header. Only headers in this list, safe headers, and the following simple response headers are exposed to frontend JavaScript code:

Cache-Control
Content-Language
Expires
Last-Modified
Pragma

Content-Type

Example:

{
  "exposedHeaders": [
    "Access-Control-Allow-Origin",
    "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials",
    "Set-Cookie"
  ]
}

Default: No headers are exposed.

"maxAge": configuration expression<duration>, optional

The maximum duration for which a browser is allowed to cache a preflight response. The value is included in the Access-Control-Max-Age header of preflight responses.

When this maxAge is greater than the browser’s maximum internal value, the browser value takes precedence.

Default: 5 seconds

"allowCredentials": configuration expression<boolean>, optional

Whether to allow requests that use credentials, such as cookies, authorization headers, or TLS client certificates.

Set to true to set the Access-Control-Allow-Credentials header to true, and allow browsers to expose the response to frontend JavaScript code.

Default: False

"failureHandler": handler reference, optional

Handler to treat the request when no policy matches during a preflight request.

Provide an inline handler configuration object, or the name of a handler object declared in the heap. See also Handlers.

Default: HTTP 403 Forbidden, the request stops being executed.

CrossDomainSingleSignOnFilter

When IG and AM are running in the same domain, the SingleSignOnFilter can be used for SSO. When IG and AM are running in different domains, AM cookies are not visible to IG because of the same-origin policy. The CrossDomainSingleSignOnFilter provides a mechanism to push tokens issued by AM to IG running in a different domain.

When this filter processes a request, it injects the CDSSO token, the session user ID, and the full claims set into the CdSsoContext. If an error occurs during authentication, the error details are captured in a CdSsoFailureContext.

For an example of how to configure CDSSO in AM and IG, and information about the flow of data between AM, IG, and a protected application, see Authenticate With CDSSO.

Supported with AM 5.5 and later versions.

WebSocket Notifications for Sessions

When WebSocket notifications are set up for sessions, IG receives a notification from AM when a user logs out of AM, or when the AM session is modified, closed, or times out. IG then evicts entries that are related to the event from the sessionCache.

For information about setting up WebSocket notifications, using them to clear the session cache, and including them in the server logs, see WebSocket Notifications.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "CrossDomainSingleSignOnFilter",
  "config": {
    "amService": AmService reference,
    "redirectEndpoint": runtime expression<uri string>,
    "authenticationService": configuration expression<string>,
    "authCookie": object,
    "defaultLogoutLandingPage": configuration expression<url>,
    "logoutExpression": runtime expression<boolean>,
    "failureHandler": Handler reference,
    "verificationSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
    "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference
  }
}

Properties

"amService": AmService reference, required

The AmService heap object to use. See AmService.

"redirectEndpoint": runtime expression<uri string>, required

The URI to which AM redirects the browser with the authentication token or an authentication error. The filter checks that the authentication was initiated by IG.

Configure this URI to be the same as that in AM.

To make sure that the redirect is routed back to the CrossDomainSingleSignOnFilter, include the endpoint in the route condition in one of the following ways:

As a sub-path of the condition path.

For example, use the following route condition with the following endpoint:
```
"condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/cdsso')}"
```
```
"redirectEndpoint": "/home/cdsso/callback"
```
To match the route condition.

For example, use the following route condition with the following endpoint:
```
"condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/cdsso')}"
```
```
"redirectEndpoint": "/home/cdsso"
```
With this route condition, all POST requests on the condition path are treated as AM CDSSO callbacks. Any POST requests that aren’t the result of an AM CDSSO callback will fail.
As a specific path that is not related to the condition path.

To make sure that the redirect is routed back to this filter, include the redirectEndpoint as a path in the filter condition.

For example, use the following route condition with the following endpoint:
```
"condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/cdsso/redirect') || matches(request.uri.path, '^/ig/cdssoRedirectUri')}"
```
```
"redirectEndpoint": "/ig/cdssoRedirectUri"
```

"authenticationService": configuration expression<uri string>,optional: The name of an AM authentication tree or authentication chain to use for authentication.

Default: AM’s default authentication service.

For an example that uses authenticationService, see Authenticate With SSO Through an AM Authentication Tree.

For more information about authentication trees and chains, see Authentication Nodes and Trees and Authentication Modules and Chains in AM’s Authentication and Single Sign-On Guide.

"authCookie": object, optional

The configuration of the cookie used to store the authentication.

{
  "cookie": {
    "name": configuration expression<string>,
    "domain": configuration expression<string>,
    "httpOnly": configuration expression<boolean>,
    "path": configuration expression<string>,
    "sameSite": configuration expression<enumeration>,
    "secure": configuration expression<boolean>
  }
}

"name": configuration expression<string>, optional

Name of the cookie containing the authentication token from AM.

For security, change the default name of cookies.

Default: ig-token-cookie

"domain": configuration expression<string>, optional

Domain to which the cookie applies.

Set a domain only if the user-agent is able to re-emit cookies on that domain on its next hop. For example, to re-emit a cookie on the domain example.com, the user-agent must be able to access that domain on its next hop.

Default: The fully qualified hostname of the user-agent’s next hop.

"httpOnly": configuration expression<boolean>, optional

Flag to mitigate the risk of client-side scripts accessing protected cookies.

Default: true

"path": configuration expression<string>, optional

Path protected by this authentication.

Set a path only if the user-agent is able to re-emit cookies on the path. For example, to re-emit a cookie on the path /home/cdsso, the user-agent must be able to access that path on its next hop.

Default: The path of the request that got the Set-Cookie in its response.

"sameSite": configuration expression<enumeration>, optional

Options to manage the circumstances in which the cookie is sent to the server. The following values are listed in order of strictness, with most strict first:

STRICT: Send the cookie only if the request was initiated from the cookie domain. Not case-sensitive. Use this value to reduce the risk of cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
LAX: Send the cookie only with GET requests in a first-party context, where the URL in the address bar matches the cookie domain. Not case-sensitive. Use this value to reduce the risk of cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
NONE: Send the cookie whenever a request is made to the cookie domain. With this setting, consider setting secure to true to prevent browsers from rejecting the cookie. For more information, see SameSite cookies.

Default: LAX

For CDSSO with IG in standalone mode, set "sameSite":"none" and "secure":"true". For security reasons, if "sameSite" is not set many browsers require the connection to be secure (HTTPS). Therefore, if the connection is not secure (HTTP), the browser might not supply cookies with "sameSite":"none". For an example, see Authenticate With CDSSO for IG in Standalone Mode.

"secure": configuration expression<boolean>, optional: Flag to limit the scope of the cookie to secure channels.

Set this flag only if the user-agent is able to re-emit cookies over HTTPS on its next hop. For example, to re-emit a cookie with the secure flag, the user-agent must be connected to its next hop by HTTPS.

Default: false

"defaultLogoutLandingPage": configuration expression<url>, optional: The URL to which a request is redirected if logoutExpression is evaluated as true.

If this property is not an absolute URL, the request is redirected to the IG domain name.

This parameter is effective only when logoutExpression is specified.

Default: None, processing continues.

"logoutExpression": runtime expression<boolean>, optional

An expression to define a condition for logout, based on the request. If the expression evaluates to true, the AM session token for the end user is revoked.

If a defaultLogoutLandingPage is specified, the request is redirected to that page. Otherwise, the request continues to be processed.

The following example expressions can be used to trigger revocation of the end user token:

The request URI contains /logout:
```
${matches(request.uri, '/logout')}
```

The request path starts with /logout:

${matches(request.uri.path, '^/logout')}

The request query includes the logOff=true query parameter:
```
${matches(request.uri.query, 'logOff=true')}
```

Default: Logout is not managed by this filter.

"failureHandler": Handler reference, optional

Handler to treat the request if an error occurs during authentication.

If an error occurs during authentication, a CdSsoFailureContext is populated with details of the error and any associated Throwable. This is available to the failure handler so that it can respond appropriately.

Be aware that the failure handler does not itself play a role in user authentication. It is only invoked if there is a problem that prevents user authentication from taking place.

A number of circumstances may cause the failure handler to be invoked, including:

The redirect endpoint is invalid.
The redirect endpoint is invoked without a valid CDSSO token.
The redirect endpoint is invoked inappropriately.
An error was reported by AM during authentication.

If no failure handler is configured, the default failure handler is used.

Example

In the following example from Single Sign-On and Cross-Domain Single Sign-On, IG uses authentication from AM on a different domain to process a request:

{
  "name": "cdsso",
  "baseURI": "http://app.example.com:8081",
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/cdsso')}",
  "heap": [

CryptoHeaderFilter

This object is deprecated and likely to be removed in a future release.

The CryptoHeaderFilter conveys encrypted data between hosts by using insecure ECB mode ciphers. Consider using a JwtBuilderFilter with a HeaderFilter for a more secure way to pass identity or other runtime information to the protected application.

Encrypts or decrypts headers in a request or response, using a symmetric or asymmetric key. CryptoHeaderFilter supports key rotation.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "CryptoHeaderFilter",
  "config": {
    "messageType": configuration expression<enumeration>,
    "operation": configuration expression<enumeration>,
    "keySecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
    "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference,
    "algorithm": configuration expression<string>,
    "charset": configuration expression<string>,
    "headers": [ configuration expression<string>, ... ]
  }
}

Properties

"messageType": configuration expression<enumeration>, required: The type of message whose headers to encrypt or decrypt.

Must be one of: "REQUEST", "RESPONSE".
"operation": configuration expression<enumeration>, required: Indication of whether to encrypt or decrypt.

Must be one of: "ENCRYPT", "DECRYPT".
"keySecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>, required: The secret ID of the key to encrypt or decrypt the headers. For more information, see Default Secrets Object.
"secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference, required: The SecretsProvider object to query for the key to encrypt or decrypt the headers. For more information, see SecretsProvider.
"algorithm": configuration expression<string>, optional: The algorithm name, mode, and padding used for encryption and decryption.

CryptoHeaderFilter does not support EC-based encryption. Use other cipher algorithm values given in Java Security Standard Algorithm Names.

Default: AES/ECB/PKCS5Padding
"charset": configuration expression<string>, optional: The name of the charset used to encrypt or decrypt values, as described in Class Charset.

Default: UTF-8
"headers": array of configuration expression<string>, optional: The names of header fields to encrypt or decrypt.

Default: Empty

Example

CsrfFilter

Prevent Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks when using cookie-based authentication, as follows:

When a session is created or updated for a client, generate a CSRF token as a hash of the session cookie.
Send the token in a response header to the client, and require the client to provide that header in subsequent requests.
In subsequent requests, compare the provided token to the generated token.
If the token is not provided or can’t be validated, reject the request and return a valid CSRF token transparently in the response header.

Rogue websites that attempt CSRF attacks operate in a different website domain to the targeted website. Because of same-origin policy, rogue websites can’t access a response from the targeted website, and cannot, therefore, access the CSRF token.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "CsrfFilter",
  "config": {
    "cookieName": configuration expression<string>,
    "headerName": configuration expression<string>,
    "excludeSafeMethods": configuration expression<boolean>,
    "failureHandler": handler reference
  }
}

Properties

"cookieName": configuration expression<string>, required: The name of the cookie used to store the session ID, where iPlanetDirectoryPro is the name of the default AM session cookie. To find the name of your AM session cookie, see Find the Name of Your AM Session Cookie.
"headerName": configuration expression<string>, optional: The name of the header that carries the CSRF token. The same header is used to create and verify the token.

Default: X-CSRF-Token
"excludeSafeMethods": configuration expression<boolean>, optional: Whether to exclude GET, HEAD, and OPTION methods from CSRF testing. In most cases, these methods are assumed as safe from CSRF.

Default: true
"failureHandler": handler reference, optional: Handler to treat the request if the CSRF the token is not provided or can’t be validated. Provide an inline handler declaration, or the name of a handler object defined in the heap.

Although IG returns the CSRF token transparently in the response header, this handler cannot access the CSRF token.

Default: Handler that generates HTTP 403 Forbidden.

Example

For an example of how to harden protection against CSRF attacks, see Protect Against CSRF Attacks.

{
  "name": "CsrfFilter-1",
  "type": "CsrfFilter",
  "config": {
    "cookieName": "openig-jwt-session",
    "headerName": "X-CSRF-Token",
    "excludeSafeMethods": true
  }

EntityExtractFilter

Extracts regular expression patterns from a message entity, and stores their values in a target object. Use this object in password replay, to find a login path or extract a nonce.

If the message type is REQUEST, the pattern is extracted before the request is handled. If the message type is RESPONSE, the pattern is extracted out of the response body.

Each pattern can have an associated template, which is applied to its match result.

For information, see Patterns.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "EntityExtractFilter",
    "config": {
        "messageType": string,
        "charset": string,
        "target": lvalue-expression,
        "bindings": [
            {
                "key": string,
                "pattern": pattern,
                "template": pattern-template
            }, ...
        ]
    }
}

Properties

"messageType": enumeration, required: The message type to extract patterns from.

Must be REQUEST or RESPONSE.
"charset": string, optional: Overrides the character set encoding specified in message.

Default: The message encoding is used.
"target": lvalue-expression, required: Expression that yields the target object that contains the extraction results.

The bindings determine what type of object is stored in the target location.

The object stored in the target location is a Map<String, String>. You can then access its content with ${target.key} or ${target['key']}.

See also Expressions.
"key": string, required: Name of the element in the target object to contain an extraction result.
"pattern": pattern, required: The regular expression pattern to find in the entity.

See also Patterns.
"template": pattern-template, optional: The template to apply to the pattern, and store in the named target element.

Default: store the match result itself.

See also Patterns.

Examples

Extracts a nonce from the response, which is typically a login page, and sets its value in the attributes context to be used by the downstream filter posting the login form. The nonce value would be accessed using the following expression: ${attributes.extract.wpLoginToken}.

The pattern finds all matches in the HTTP body of the form wpLogintokenvalue="abc". Setting the template to $1 assigns the value abc to attributes.extract.wpLoginToken:

{
    "name": "WikiNoncePageExtract",
    "type": "EntityExtractFilter",
    "config": {
        "messageType": "response",
        "target": "${attributes.extract}",
        "bindings": [
            {
                "key": "wpLoginToken",
                "pattern": "wpLoginToken\"\\s.*value=\"(.*)\"",
                "template": "$1"
            }
        ]
    }
}

The following example reads the response looking for the AM login page. When found, it sets isLoginPage = true to be used in a SwitchFilter to post the login credentials:

{
    "name": "FindLoginPage",
    "type": "EntityExtractFilter",
    "config": {
        "messageType": "response",
        "target": "${attributes.extract}",
        "bindings": [
            {
                "key": "isLoginPage",
                "pattern": "OpenAM\s\(Login\)",
                "template": "true"
            }
        ]
    }
}

FapiInteractionIdFilter

Tracks the interaction ID of requests, according to the Financial-grade API (FAPI) WG, as follows:

If a FAPI header is provided in a client request, includes the interaction ID in the x-fapi-interaction-id property of the response header.
If a FAPI header is not provided in the request, includes a new Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) in the x-fapi-interaction-id property of the response header.
Adds the value of x-fapi-interaction-id to the log.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "FapiInteractionIdFilter"
}

Properties

There are no configuration properties for this filter.

Example

The following example, based on Validate Certificate-Bound Access Tokens, adds a FapiInteractionIdFilter to the end of the chain:

{
  "name": "mtls",
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '/mtls')}",
  "handler": {
    "type": "Chain",
    "config": {
      "filters": [ {
          "name": "OAuth2ResourceServerFilter-1",

FragmentFilter

Tracks the fragment part of a URI when a request triggers a login redirect.

Before authentication, the filter captures the URI fragment information and stores it in a cookie.
After authentication, when the request is issued again to the original URI, the filter redirects the browser to the original URI, including any URI fragment.

Use this filter with SingleSignOnFilter, CrossDomainSingleSignOnFilter, OAuth2ClientFilter, and PolicyEnforcementFilter. This filter is not required for SAML because the final redirect is done with a DispatchHandler and a StaticResponseFilter.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "FragmentFilter",
  "config": {
    "fragmentCaptureEndpoint": configuration expression<uri_string>,
    "noJavaScriptMessage": configuration expression<string>,
    "cookie": object
  }
}

"fragmentCaptureEndpoint": configuration expression<uri_string>, required

The IG endpoint used to capture the fragment form data.

Configure the endpoint to match the condition of the route in which the filter is used.

"noJavaScriptMessage": configuration expression<string>, optional

A message to display on the fragment form when JavaScript is not enabled.

Default: No message

"cookie": object, optional

The configuration of the cookie used to store the fragment information.

  }
}

"name": configuration expression<string>, optional

Cookie name.

Default: ig-fragment-cookie

"domain": configuration expression<string>, optional

Domain to which the cookie applies.

Default: The fully qualified hostname of the IG host.

"httpOnly": configuration expression<boolean>, optional

Flag to mitigate the risk of client-side scripts accessing protected cookies.

Default: true

"path": configuration expression<string>, optional

Path protected by this authentication.

Default: /

"sameSite": configuration expression<enumeration>, optional

Options to manage the circumstances in which the cookie is sent to the server. The following values are listed in order of strictness, with most strict first:

STRICT: Send the cookie only if the request was initiated from the cookie domain. Not case-sensitive. Use this value to reduce the risk of cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
LAX: Send the cookie only with GET requests in a first-party context, where the URL in the address bar matches the cookie domain. Not case-sensitive. Use this value to reduce the risk of cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
NONE: Send the cookie whenever a request is made to the cookie domain. With this setting, consider setting secure to true to prevent browsers from rejecting the cookie. For more information, see SameSite cookies.

Default: LAX

"secure": configuration expression<boolean>, optional: Flag to limit the scope of the cookie to secure channels.

Default: false
"maxAge": configuration expression<duration>, optional: The maximum duration for which the FragmentFilter cookie can be valid.

When this maxAge is greater than the browser’s maximum internal value, the browser value takes precedence.

Default: 1 hour

FileAttributesFilter

Retrieves and exposes a record from a delimiter-separated file. Lookup of the record is performed using a specified key, whose value is derived from an expression. The resulting record is exposed in an object whose location is specified by the target expression. If a matching record cannot be found, then the resulting object is empty.

The retrieval of the record is performed lazily; it does not occur until the first attempt to access a value in the target. This defers the overhead of file operations and text processing until a value is first required. This also means that the value expression is not evaluated until the object is first accessed.

Usage

{
     "name": string,
     "type": "FileAttributesFilter",
     "config": {
         "file": expression,
         "charset": string,
         "separator": string,
         "header": boolean,
         "fields": [ string, ... ],
         "target": lvalue-expression,
         "key": string,
         "value": runtime expression<string>
     }
}

For an example see Log In With Credentials From a File.

Properties

"file": expression, required

The file containing the record to be read.

See also Expressions.

"charset": string, optional

The character set in which the file is encoded.

Default: "UTF-8".

"separator": separator identifier string, optional

The separator character, which is one of the following:

COLON: Unix-style colon-separated values, with backslash as the escape character.
COMMA: Comma-separated values, with support for quoted literal strings.
TAB: Tab separated values, with support for quoted literal strings.

Default: COMMA

"header": boolean, optional

The setting to treat or not treat the first row of the file as a header row.

When the first row of the file is treated as a header row, the data in that row is disregarded and cannot be returned by a lookup operation.

Default: true.

"fields": array of strings, optional

A list of keys in the order they appear in a record.

If fields is not set, the keys are assigned automatically by the column numbers of the file.

"target": lvalue-expression, required

Expression that yields the target object to contain the record.

The target object is a Map<String, String>, where the fields are the keys. For example, if the target is ${attributes.file} and the record has a username field and a password field mentioned in the fields list, Then you can access the user name as ${attributes.file.username} and the password as ${attributes.file.password}.

See also Expressions.

"key": string, required

The key used for the lookup operation.

"value": runtime expression<string>, required

The value to be looked-up in the file.

See also Expressions.

ForwardedRequestFilter

Rebase the request URI to a computed scheme, host name, and port.

Use this filter to configure redirects when a request is forwarded by an upstream application such as a TLS offloader.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "ForwardedRequestFilter",
  "config": {
    "scheme": runtime expression<string>,
    "host": runtime expression<string>,
    "port": runtime expression<number>
  }
}

Properties

At least one of scheme, host, or port must be configured.

"scheme": runtime expression<string>, optional: The scheme to which the request is rebased, for example, https.

Default: Not rebased to a different scheme
"host": runtime expression<string>, optional: The host to which the request is rebased.

Default: Not rebased to a different host
"port": runtime expression<number>, optional: The port to which the request is rebased.

Default: Not rebased to a different port

Example

In the following configuration, IG runs behind an AWS load balancer, to perform a login page redirect to an authentication party, using the original URI requested by the client.

IG can access the URI used by the load balancer to reach IG, but can’t access the original request URI.

The load balancer breaks the original request URI into the following headers, and adds them to the incoming request:

X-Forwarded-Proto: Scheme
X-Forwarded-Port: Port
Host: Original host name, and possibly the port.

{
  "type": "ForwardedRequestFilter",
  "config": {
    "scheme": "${request.headers['X-Forwarded-Proto'][0]}",
    "host": "${split(request.headers['Host'][0], ':')[0]}",
    "port": "${integer(request.headers['X-Forwarded-Port'][0])}"
  }
}

HeaderFilter

Removes headers from and adds headers to request and response messages. Headers are added to any existing headers in the message. To replace a header, remove the header and then add it again.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "HeaderFilter",
  "config": {
    "messageType": enumeration,
    "remove": [ string, ... ],
    "add": {
      name: [ runtime expression<string>, ... ], ...
    }
  }
}

Properties

"messageType": enumeration, required: Indicates the type of message to filter headers for. Must be one of "REQUEST", "RESPONSE".
"remove": array of strings, optional: The names of header fields to remove from the message.
"add": object, optional: Header fields to add to the message. The header name is specified by name. The header values are specified by an array of runtime expressions that evaluate to strings.

Examples

Replacing Host Header on an Incoming Request

The following example replaces the host header on the incoming request with the value myhost.com:

{
  "name": "ReplaceHostFilter",
  "type": "HeaderFilter",
  "config": {
    "messageType": "REQUEST",
    "remove": [ "host" ],
    "add": {
      "host": [ "myhost.com" ]
    }
  }
}

Adding a Header to a Response

The following example adds a Set-Cookie header to the response:

{
  "name": "SetCookieFilter",
  "type": "HeaderFilter",
  "config": {
    "messageType": "RESPONSE",
    "add": {
      "Set-Cookie": [ "mysession=12345" ]
    }
  }
}

Adding Headers to a Request

The following example adds the headers custom1 and custom2 to the request:

{
  "name": "SetCustomHeaders",
  "type": "HeaderFilter",
  "config": {
    "messageType": "REQUEST",
    "add": {
      "custom1": [ "12345", "6789" ],
      "custom2": [ "abcd" ]
    }
  }
}

Adding a Token Value to a Response

The following example adds the value of session’s policy enforcement token to the pef_sso_token header in the response:

{
  "type": "HeaderFilter",
  "config": {
    "messageType": "RESPONSE",
    "add": {
      "pef_sso_token": ["${session.pef_token}"]
    }
  }
}

Adding Headers and Logging Results

The following example adds a message to the request and response as it passes through the Chain, and the capture on the ReverseProxyHandler logs the result. With IG and the sample application set up as described in the Getting Started, access this route on http://openig.example.com:8080/home/chain.

{
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/chain')}",
  "handler": {
    "type": "Chain",
    "comment": "Base configuration defines the capture decorator",
    "config": {
      "filters": [
        {
          "type": "HeaderFilter",
          "comment": "Add a header to all requests",
          "config": {
            "messageType": "REQUEST",
            "add": {
              "MyHeaderFilter_request": [
                "Added by HeaderFilter to request"
              ]
            }
          }
        },
        {
          "type": "HeaderFilter",
          "comment": "Add a header to all responses",
          "config": {
            "messageType": "RESPONSE",
            "add": {
              "MyHeaderFilter_response": [
                "Added by HeaderFilter to response"
              ]
            }
          }
        }
      ],
      "handler": {
        "type": "ReverseProxyHandler",
        "comment": "Log request, pass it to the sample app, log response",
        "capture": "all",
        "baseURI": "http://app.example.com:8081"
      }
    }
  }
}

The chain receives the request and context and processes it as follows:

The first HeaderFilter adds a header to the incoming request.
The second HeaderFilter manages responses not requests, so it simply passes the request and context to the handler.
The ReverseProxyHandler captures (logs) the request.
The ReverseProxyHandler forwards the transformed request to the protected application.
The protected application passes a response to the ReverseProxyHandler.
The ReverseProxyHandler captures (logs) the response.
The second HeaderFilter adds a header added to the response.
The first HeaderFilter is configured to manage requests, not responses, so it simply passes the response back to IG.

The following example lists some of the HTTP requests and responses captured as they flow through the chain. You can search the log files for MyHeaderFilter_request and MyHeaderFilter_response.

# Original request from user-agent
GET http://openig.example.com:8080/home/chain HTTP/1.1
Accept: /
Host: openig.example.com:8080

# Add a header to the request (inside IG) and direct it to the protected application
GET http://app.example.com:8081/home/chain HTTP/1.1
Accept: /
Host: openig.example.com:8080
MyHeaderFilter_request: Added by HeaderFilter to request

# Return the response to the user-agent
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 1809
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

# Add a header to the response (inside IG)
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 1809
MyHeaderFilter_response: Added by HeaderFilter to response

HttpBasicAuthenticationClientFilter

Authenticate clients according to HTTP Basic Authentication protocol, using the client’s credentials.

Use this filter in a service-to-service context, where services need to access resources protected by HTTP Basic Authentication.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "HttpBasicAuthenticationClientFilter",
  "config": {
    "username": configuration expression<string>,
    "passwordSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
    "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference,
    "urlEncodeCredentials": configuration expression<boolean>
  }
}

Properties

"username": configuration expression<string>, required: The username of the client to authenticate.
"passwordSecretId": configuration expression<string>, required: The secret ID required to obtain the client password.
"secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference, required: The SecretsProvider to use to obtain the passwordSecretId. Provide either the name of a SecretsProvider object defined in the heap, or specify a SecretsProvider object inline.
"urlEncodeCredentials": configuration expression<boolean>, optional: Set to true to URL-encoded credentials before base64-encoding them.

Default: false

Example

The following example shows the flow of information when a client service accesses a resource protected by HTTP Basic Authentication:

Set Up the Example

Add the following script to the IG configuration as $HOME/.openig/scripts/groovy/BasicAuthResourceServerFilter.groovy (on Windows, appdata\OpenIG\scripts\groovy\BasicAuthResourceServerFilter.groovy ):

 */

import static org.forgerock.util.promise.Promises.newResultPromise;

import java.nio.charset.Charset;
import org.forgerock.util.encode.Base64;

String authorizationHeader = request.getHeaders().getFirst("Authorization");
if (authorizationHeader == null) {
    // No credentials provided, reply that they are needed.
    Response response = new Response(Status.UNAUTHORIZED);
    response.getHeaders().put("WWW-Authenticate", "Basic realm=\"" + realm + "\"");
    return newResultPromise(response);
}

String expectedAuthorization = "Basic " + Base64.encode((username + ":" + password).getBytes(Charset.defaultCharset()))
if (!expectedAuthorization.equals(authorizationHeader)) {
    return newResultPromise(new Response(Status.FORBIDDEN));
}
// Credentials are as expected, let's continue
return next.handle(context, request);

The script is a simple implementation of the HTTP Basic Authentication mechanism.

Add the following route to IG:

Linux
Windows

$HOME/.openig/config/routes/http-basic-access.json

appdata\OpenIG\config\routes\http-basic-access.json

{
  "name": "http-basic-access",
  "baseURI": "http://openig.example.com:8080",
  "condition" : "${matches(request.uri.path, '^/http-basic-access')}",
  "heap": [

                    "password.secret.id": "cGFzc3dvcmQ="
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        ],
        "handler": "ForgeRockClientHandler"
      }
    }
  ],
  "handler": {
    "type": "ScriptableHandler",
    "config": {

      "source": [
        "request.uri.path = '/http-basic-protected-resource'",
        "return http.send(context, request);"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Note the following features of the route:

The route matches requests to /http-basic-access.
The ScriptableHandler rewrites the request to target it to /http-basic-protected-resource, and then calls the HTTP client, that has been redefined to use the httpBasicAuthEnabledClientHandler.
The httpBasicAuthEnabledClientHandler calls the HttpBasicAuthenticationClientFilter to authenticate the client, using the client’s credentials.

Add the following route to IG:

Linux
Windows

$HOME/.openig/config/routes/http-basic-protected-resource.json

appdata\OpenIG\config\routes\http-basic-protected-resource.json

          "entity": "<html><body><h2>Access Granted</h2></body></html>"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Notice the following features of the route:

The route matches requests to /http-basic-protected-resource.
The ScriptableFilter provides a script to implement a simple HTTP Basic Authentication mechanism, that compares the provided credentials with the expected credentials.
When the client is authenticated, the StaticResponseHandler returns a message that access is granted.

Access the route on http://openig.example.com:8080/http-basic-access.

Because the expected credentials were provided in the request, a message shows that access is granted.

HttpBasicAuthFilter

Authenticate clients by providing the client credentials as a basic authorization header in the request. The credentials are base64-encoded.

This filter performs authentication through the HTTP Basic authentication scheme, described in RFC 2617.

Use this filter primarily for password replay scenarios, where the password is stored externally in clear text.

If challenged for authentication via a 401 Unauthorized status code by the server, this filter retries the request with credentials attached. After an HTTP authentication challenge is issued from the remote server, all subsequent requests to that remote server that pass through the filter include the user credentials.

If authentication fails (including the case where no credentials are yielded from expressions), then processing is diverted to the specified authentication failure handler.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "HttpBasicAuthFilter",
    "config": {
        "username": runtime expression<string>,
        "password": runtime expression<string>,
        "failureHandler": Handler reference,
        "cacheHeader": boolean
    }
}

Properties

"username": runtime expression<string>, required: The username to supply during authentication.

See also Expressions.
"password": runtime expression<string>, required: The password to supply during authentication.

See also Expressions.
"failureHandler": Handler reference, required: Dispatch to this Handler if authentication fails.

Provide either the name of a Handler object defined in the heap, or an inline Handler configuration object.

See also Handlers.
"cacheHeader": boolean, optional: Whether or not to cache credentials in the session after the first successful authentication, and then replay those credentials for subsequent authentications in the same session.

With "cacheHeader": false, the filter generates the header for each request. This is useful, for example, when users change their passwords during a browser session.

Default: true

Example

{
    "name": "TomcatAuthenticator",
    "type": "HttpBasicAuthFilter",
    "config": {
        "username": "tomcat",
        "password": "tomcat",
        "failureHandler": "TomcatAuthFailureHandler",
        "cacheHeader": false
    }
}

IdTokenValidationFilter

Validates an ID token by checking the standard claims, aud, exp, and iat. If specified in the configuration, this filter also checks the ID token issuer and signature.

This filter passes data into the context as follows:

If the JWT is validated, the request continues down the chain. The data is provided in the JwtValidationContext.
If the JWT is not validated, data is provided in the JwtValidationErrorContext.

If a failure handler is configured, the request passes to the failure handler. Otherwise, an HTTP 403 Forbidden is returned.

The iat claim is required, and the iat minus the skewAllowance must be before the current time on the IG clock. For information, see OpenID Connect Core 1.0 incorporating errata set 1.

Usage

{
   "name": string,
   "type": "IdTokenValidationFilter",
   "config": {
     "idToken": runtime expression<string>,
     "audience": configuration expression<string>,
     "issuer": configuration expression<string>,
     "skewAllowance": configuration expression<duration>,
     "verificationSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
     "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference,
     "customizer": JwtValidatorCustomizer reference,
     "failureHandler": handler reference
   }
}

Properties

"idToken": runtime expression<string>, required: The ID token as an expression representing the JWT or signed JWT in the request. Cannot be null.
"audience": configuration expression<string>, required: The aud claim to check on the JWT. Cannot be null.
"issuer": configuration expression<string>, optional: The iss claim to check on the JWT. Can be null.

"skewAllowance": configuration expression<duration>, optional

The duration to add to the validity period of a JWT to allow for clock skew between different servers. To support a zero-trust policy, the skew allowance is by default zero.

A skewAllowance of 2 minutes affects the validity period as follows:

A JWT with an iat of 12:00 is valid from 11:58 on the IG clock.
A JWT with an exp 13:00 is expired after 13:02 on the IG clock.

Default: zero

"verificationSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>, required to verify the signature of signed tokens: The secret ID for the secret to verify the signature of signed tokens.

If configured, the token must be signed. If not configured, IG does not verify the signature.

For information about how signatures are validated, see Validating the Signature of Signed Tokens. For information about how each type of secret store resolves named secrets, see Secrets.

"secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference, required to verify the signature of signed JWTs: The SecretsProvider to use to resolve queried secrets, such as passwords and cryptographic keys. Provide either the name of a SecretsProvider object defined in the heap, or specify a SecretsProvider object inline.

"customizer": JwtValidatorCustomizer reference, optional

Defines a set of validation constraints for JWT claims and sub-claims. If a claim is not validated against the constraint, the JWT is not validated.

The customizer does not override existing constraints, such as aud, iss, exp, and iat, which are predefined in the IdTokenValidationFilter, Defining a new constraint on an already constrained claim has an impact only if the new constraint is more restrictive.

JwtValidatorCustomizer provides a ScriptableJwtValidatorCustomizer to enrich a builder object by using its methods. Get more information about the following items:

The builder object, at Available Objects.
Transformer methods, to enrich the builder object, at org.forgerock.openig.util.JsonValues.
Constraints, at org.forgerock.openig.tools.jwt.Constraints.

2. Select Applications > OAuth 2.0 > Clients, and add the additional scope openid to client-application.

Set up IG:

Add the following route to IG:

Linux
Windows

$HOME/.openig/config/routes/idtokenvalidation.json

appdata\OpenIG\config\routes\idtokenvalidation.json

{
  "name": "idtokenvalidation",
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/idtokenvalidation')}",
  "capture": "all",

      "filters": [{
        "type": "IdTokenValidationFilter",

          "issuer": "http://openam.example.com:8088/openam/oauth2",
          "failureHandler": {
            "type": "ScriptableHandler",
            "config": {
              "type": "application/x-groovy",
              "source": [
                "def response = new Response(Status.FORBIDDEN)",
                "response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'text/html; charset=utf-8'",
                "def errors = contexts.jwtValidationError.violations.collect{it.description}",

                "response.entity=display as String",
                "return response"
              ]
            }
          },
          "verificationSecretId": "verify",
          "secretsProvider": {
            "type": "JwkSetSecretStore",
            "config": {
              "jwkUrl": "http://openam.example.com:8088/openam/oauth2/connect/jwk_uri"

        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Notice the following features of the route:

The route matches requests to /idtokenvalidation.
A SecretsProvider declares a JwkSetSecretStore to validate secrets for signed JWTs, which specifies the URL to a JWK set on AM that contains the signing keys.
The property verificationSecretId is configured with a value. If this property is not configured, the filter does not verify the signature of tokens.
The JwkSetSecretStore specifies the URL to a JWK set on AM, that contains signing keys identified by a kid. The signature of the token is verified as follows:
- If the value of a kid in the JWK set matches a kid in the the signed JWT, the JwkSetSecretStore verifies the signature.
- If the JWT doesn’t have a kid, or if the JWK set doesn’t contain a key with the same value, the JwkSetSecretStore looks for valid secrets with the same purpose as the value of verificationSecretId.
If the filter validates the token, the StaticResponseHandler displays the token value from the context ${contexts.jwtValidation.value}. Otherwise, the ScriptableHandler displays the token value and a list of violations from the context ${contexts.jwtValidationError.violations}

Test the setup:
1. In a terminal window, use a curl command similar to the following to retrieve an id_token:
  $ curl -s \ --user "client-application:password" \ --data "grant_type=password&username=demo&password=Ch4ng31t&scope=openid" \ http://openam.example.com:8088/openam/oauth2/access_token { "access_token":"...", "scope":"openid", "id_token":"...", "token_type":"Bearer", "expires_in":3599 }
  - In the route, replace <id_token_value> with the value of the id_token returned in the previous step.
2. Access the route on http://openig.example.com:8080/idtokenvalidation.
  
  The validated token is displayed.
  - In the route, invalidate the token by changing the value of the audience or issuer, and then access the route again.
    
    The value of the token, and the reasons that the token is invalid, are displayed.

JwtBuilderFilter

Collects data at runtime, packs it in a JSON Web Token (JWT), and places the resulting JWT into the JwtBuilderContext.

Configure JwtBuilderFilter to create an unsigned JWT, a signed JWT, or a signed then encrypted JWT:

Sign the JWT so that an application can validate the authenticity of the claims/data. The JWT can be signed with a shared secret or private key, and verified with a shared secret or corresponding public key.
Encrypt the JWT to reduce the risk of a data breach.

For a flexible way to pass identity or other runtime information to the protected application, use this filter with a HeaderFilter.

To enable downstream filters and handlers to verify signed and/or encrypted JWTs built by this filter, use this filter with a JwkSetHandler.

JwtValidationFilter

Validates an unsigned, signed, encrypted, or signed and encrypted JWT. The order of signing and encryption is not important; a JWT can be signed and then encrypted, or encrypted and then signed.

If the JWT is validated, the request continues down the chain. The data is provided in the JwtValidationContext.

If the JWT is not validated, data is provided in the JwtValidationErrorContext. If a failure handler is configured, the request passes to the failure handler. Otherwise, an HTTP 403 Forbidden is returned.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "JwtValidationFilter",
  "config": {
    "jwt": runtime expression<string>,
    "verificationSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
    "decryptionSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>,
    "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference,
    "skewAllowance": configuration expression<duration>,
    "customizer": JwtValidatorCustomizer reference,
    "failureHandler": handler reference
  }
}

Properties

"jwt": runtime expression<string>, required: The value of the JWT in the request. Cannot be null.

"verificationSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>, required to verify the signature of signed tokens: The secret ID for the secret to verify the signature of signed tokens.

If configured, the token must be signed. If not configured, IG does not verify the signature.

For information about how signatures are validated, see Validating the Signature of Signed Tokens. For information about how each type of secret store resolves named secrets, see Secrets.
"decryptionSecretId": configuration expression<secret-id>, required if AM secures access_tokens with encryption: The secret ID for the secret to verify the encryption of tokens.

If configured, the token must be encrypted. If not configured, IG does not verify the encryption.

For information about how each type of secret store resolves named secrets, see Secrets.
"secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference, required to verify the signature of signed JWTs: The SecretsProvider to use to resolve queried secrets, such as passwords and cryptographic keys. Provide either the name of a SecretsProvider object defined in the heap, or specify a SecretsProvider object inline.

"customizer": JwtValidatorCustomizer reference, optional

Defines a set of validation constraints for JWT claims and sub-claims. If a claim is not validated against the constraint, the JWT is not validated.

JwtValidatorCustomizer provides a ScriptableJwtValidatorCustomizer to enrich a builder object by using its methods. Get more information about the following items:

The builder object, at Available Objects.
Transformer methods, to enrich the builder object, at org.forgerock.openig.util.JsonValues.
Constraints, at org.forgerock.openig.tools.jwt.Constraints.
Other properties for ScriptableJwtValidatorCustomizer, at Scripts.

The following examples provide checks:

Check that the value of the claim '/greaterThan5' is greater than 5

"customizer": {
  "type": "ScriptableJwtValidatorCustomizer",
  "config": {
    "type": "application/x-groovy",
    "source": [
      "builder.claim('/greaterThan5', JsonValue::asInteger, isGreaterThan(5))"
    ]
  }
}

Check that the value of the claim sub is george

"customizer": {
  "type": "ScriptableJwtValidatorCustomizer",
  "config": {
    "type": "application/x-groovy",
    "source": [

}

Default: Claims are not validated

"skewAllowance": configuration expression<duration>, optional

The duration to add to the validity period of a JWT to allow for clock skew between different servers. To support a zero-trust policy, the skew allowance is by default zero.

A skewAllowance of 2 minutes affects the validity period as follows:

A JWT with an iat of 12:00 is valid from 11:58 on the IG clock.
A JWT with an exp 13:00 is expired after 13:02 on the IG clock.

Default: zero

"failureHandler": handler reference, optional: Handler to treat the request on failure.

Provide an inline handler configuration object, or the name of a handler object declared in the heap. See also Handlers.

Default: HTTP 403 Forbidden, the request stops being executed.

Example

Validate an Unsigned, Unencrypted JWT

Set up AM as described in Validate Access_Tokens Through the Introspection Endpoint, and add the additional scope openid to the OAuth 2.0 Client.

In a terminal window, use a curl command similar to the following to retrieve a JWT:

$ curl -s \
--user "client-application:password" \
--data "grant_type=password&username=demo&password=Ch4ng31t&scope=openid" \
http://openam.example.com:8088/openam/oauth2/access_token | jq .

{
  "access_token":"...",
  "scope":"openid",
  "id_token":"...",
  "token_type":"Bearer",

The KeyStoreSecretStore password is provided by the SystemAndEnvSecretStore in the heap.

Test the setup:
1. Access the route on http://openig.example.com:8080/jwtvalidation-encrypted.
  
  The JWT is displayed.
2. In the route, invalidate the JWT by changing its value, and then access the route again.
  
  The value of the JWT, and the reasons that the JWT is invalid, are displayed.

LocationHeaderFilter

For a response that generates a redirect to the proxied application, this filter rewrites the Location header on the response to redirect the user to IG.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "LocationHeaderFilter",
    "config": {
        "baseURI": runtime expression<uri string>
    }
}

An alternative value for type is RedirectFilter.

Properties

"baseURI": runtime expression<uri string>, optional: The base URI of the IG instance. This is used to rewrite the Location header on the response.

The result of the expression must be a string that represents a valid URI, but is not a real java.net.URI object. For example, it would be incorrect to use ${request.uri}, which is not a String but a MutableUri.

Default: Redirect to the original URI specified in the request.

See also Expressions.

Example

In the following example, IG listens on https://openig.example.com:443 and the application it protects listens on http://app.example.com:8081. The filter rewrites redirects that would normally take the user to locations under http://app.example.com:8081 to go instead to locations under https://openig.example.com:443.

{
     "name": "LocationRewriter",
     "type": "LocationHeaderFilter",
     "config": {
         "baseURI": "https://openig.example.com:443/"
      }
}

OAuth2ClientFilter

The OAuth2ClientFilter uses OAuth 2.0 delegated authorization to authenticate end users. The filter can act as an OpenID Connect relying party or as an OAuth 2.0 client.

OAuth2ClientFilter performs the following tasks:

Allows the user to select an authorization server from one or more static client registrations, or by discovery and dynamic registration.

In static client registration, authorization servers are provided by Issuer, and registrations are provided by ClientRegistration.
Redirects the user through the authentication and authorization steps of an OAuth 2.0 authorization code grant, which results in the authorization server returning an access_token to the filter.
When an authorization grant succeeds, injects the access_token data into a configurable target in the context so that subsequent filters and handlers can access the access_token. Subsequent requests can use the access_token without authenticating again.
When an authorization grant fails, invokes a failureHandler.

Service URIs

Service URIs are constructed from the clientEndpoint, as follows:

clientEndpoint/login/?discovery=user-input&goto=url: Discover and register dynamically with the end user’s OpenID Provider or with the client registration endpoint as described in RFC 7591, using the value of user-input.

After successful registration, redirect the end user to the provider for authentication and authorization consent. Then redirect the user-agent back to the callback client endpoint, and then the goto URI.

The goto URL must use the same scheme, host, and port as the original URI, or be a relative URI (just the path). Otherwise, the request fails with an error.

To redirect a request to a site that does not meet the goto URL criteria, change the original URI by using a ForwardedRequestFilter.

Supported with OpenAM 13 and later versions, and AM 5 and later versions.
clientEndpoint/login?registration=clientId&issuer=issuerName&goto=url: Redirect the end user for authorization with the specified registration, defined by the ClientRegistration’s clientId and issuerName. For information, see ClientRegistration.

The provider corresponding to the registration then authenticates the end user and obtains authorization consent before redirecting the user-agent back to the callback client endpoint.

If successful, the filter saves the authorization state in the session and redirects the user-agent to the goto URL.

The goto URL must use the same scheme, host, and port as the original URI, or be a relative URI (just the path). Otherwise, the request fails with an error.

To redirect a request to a site that does not meet the goto URL criteria, change the original URI by using a ForwardedRequestFilter.
clientEndpoint/logout?goto=url: Remove the authorization state for the end user, and redirect the request to the goto URL.

The goto URL must use the same scheme, host, and port as the original URI, or be a relative URI (just the path). Otherwise, the request fails with an error.

To redirect a request to a site that does not meet the goto URL criteria, change the original URI by using a ForwardedRequestFilter.

If no goto URL is specified in the request, use defaultLogoutGoto.
clientEndpoint/callback: Handle the callback from the OAuth 2.0 authorization server, that occurs as part of the authorization process.

If the callback is handled successfully, the filter saves the authorization state in the context at the specified target location and redirects to the URL provided to the login endpoint during login.
Other request URIs: Restore the authorization state in the specified target location, and call the next filter or handler in the chain.

    "tokenEndpointAuthSigningAlg": configuration expression<string>,
    "secretsProvider": SecretsProvider reference
  }
}

Properties

"clientEndpoint": runtime expression<uri string>, required

The URI to the client endpoint.

So that routes can accept redirects from the authorization server to the callback endpoint, the clientEndpoint must be the same as the route condition or a sub path of the route condition. For example:

The same as the route condition:

"condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/discovery')}"

"clientEndpoint": "/discovery"

As a sub path of the route condition:
```
"condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/id_token')}"
```
```
"clientEndpoint": "/home/id_token/sub-path"
```
Service URIs are constructed from the clientEndpoint. For example, when clientEndpoint is openid, the service URIs are /openid/login, /openid/logout, and /openid/callback. These endpoints are implicitly reserved, and attempts to access them directly can cause undefined errors.

The result of the expression must be a string that represents a valid URI, but is not a real java.net.URI object. For example, it would be incorrect to use ${request.uri}, which is not a String but a MutableUri.

See also Expressions.

"failureHandler": handler reference, required

An inline handler configuration object, or the name of a handler object that is defined in the heap.

When the OAuth 2.0 Resource Server denies access to a resource, the failure handler can be invoked only if the error response contains a WWW-Authenticate header (meaning that there was a problem with the OAuth 2.0 exchange). All other responses are forwarded to the user-agent without invoking the failure handler.

If the value of the WWW-Authenticate header is invalid_token, the OAuth2ClientFilter tries to refresh the access_token:

If the token is refreshed, the OAuth2ClientFilter tries again to access the protected resource.
If the token is not refreshed, or if the second attempt to access the protected resource fails, the OAuth2ClientFilter invokes the failure handler.

When the failure handler is invoked, the target in the context can be populated with information such as the exception, client registration, and error. The failure object in the target is a simple map, similar to the following example:
```
{
    "client_registration": "ClientRegistration name string",
    "error": {
        "realm": "optional string",
        "scope": [ "optional scope string (required by the client)", ... ],
        "error": "optional string",
        "error_description": "optional string",
        "error_uri": "optional string"
    },
    "access_token": "string",
    "id_token": "string",
    "token_type": "Bearer",
    "expires_in": "number",
    "scope": [ "optional scope string", ... ],
    "client_endpoint": "URL string",
    "exception": exception
}
```
In the failure object, the following fields are not always present. Their presence depends on when the failure occurs:
- "access_token"
- "id_token"
- "token_type"
- "expires_in"
- "scope"
- "client_endpoint"
  
  See also Handlers.

"loginHandler": Handler reference, required if there are zero or multiple client registrations, optional if there is one client registration

Use this Handler when the user must choose an authorization server. When registrations contains only one client registration, this Handler is optional but is displayed if specified.

Provide either the name of a Handler object defined in the heap, or an inline Handler configuration object.

The OAuth 2.0 Authorization Framework

OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token Usage

OpenID Connect site, in particular the list of standard OpenID Connect 1.0 scope values

OAuth2ResourceServerFilter

Validates a request containing an OAuth 2.0 access_token. The filter expects an OAuth 2.0 token from the HTTP Authorization header of the request, such as the following example header, where the OAuth 2.0 access_token is 1fc…ec9:

Authorization: Bearer 1fc...ec9

The filter performs the following tasks:

Extracts the access_token from the request header.
Uses the configured access_token resolver to resolve the access_token against an authorization server, and validate the token claims.
Checks that the token has the scopes required by the filter configuration.
Injects the access_token info into the OAuth2Context.

The following errors can occur during access_token validation:

Error Response from the filter to the user-agent

Error	Response from the filter to the user-agent
Combination of the filter configuration and access_token result in an invalid request to the authorization server.	`HTTP 400 Bad Request`
There is no access_token in the request header.	`HTTP 401 Unauthorized WWW-Authenticate: Bearer realm="IG"`
The access_token isn’t valid, for example, because it has expired.	`HTTP 401 Unauthorized`
The access_token doesn’t have all of the scopes required in the OAuth2ResourceServerFilter configuration.	`HTTP 403 Forbidden`

Combination of the filter configuration and access_token result in an invalid request to the authorization server.

HTTP 400 Bad Request

There is no access_token in the request header.

HTTP 401 Unauthorized WWW-Authenticate: Bearer realm="IG"

The access_token isn’t valid, for example, because it has expired.

HTTP 401 Unauthorized

The access_token doesn’t have all of the scopes required in the OAuth2ResourceServerFilter configuration.

HTTP 403 Forbidden

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "OAuth2ResourceServerFilter",
  "config": {
    "accessTokenResolver": AccessTokenResolver reference,
    "cache": object,
    "executor": executor,
    "requireHttps": configuration expression<boolean>,
    "realm": string,
    "scopes": [ runtime expression<string>, ... ] or object
  }
}

An alternative value for type is OAuth2RSFilter.

Properties

"accessTokenResolver": AccessTokenResolver reference, required

Resolves an access_token against an authorization server. Configure one of the following access_token resolvers:

To decorate an AccessTokenResolver, add the decoration at the accessTokenResolver level. The following example uses the default timer decorator to record the time that a TokenIntrospectionAccessTokenResolver takes to process a request:

{
  "accessTokenResolver": {
    "type": "TokenIntrospectionAccessTokenResolver",
    "config": {
      ...
    },
  "timer": true
  }
}

"cache": object, optional

Configuration of caching for OAuth 2.0 access_tokens. By default, access_tokens are not cached. For an alternative way of caching of OAuth 2.0 access_tokens, configure CacheAccessTokenResolver.

When an access_token is cached, IG can reuse the token information without repeatedly asking the authorization server to verify the access_token. When caching is disabled, IG must ask the authorization server to verify the access_token for each request.

(From AM 6.5.3.) When an access_token is revoked on AM, the CacheAccessTokenResolver can delete the token from the cache when both of the following conditions are true:

The notification property of AmService is enabled.
The delegate AccessTokenResolver provides the token metadata required to update the cache.

When a refresh_token is revoked on AM, all associated access_tokens are automatically and immediately revoked.
```
"cache": {
  "enabled": configuration expression<boolean>,
  "defaultTimeout": configuration expression<duration>,
  "maxTimeout": configuration expression<duration>,
  "amService": AmService reference,
  "onNotificationDisconnection": configuration expression<enumeration>
}
```
enabled: configuration expression<boolean>, optional

Enable or disable caching.

Default: false

defaultTimeout: configuration expression<duration>, optional
The duration for which to cache an OAuth 2.0 access_token if it doesn’t provide a valid expiry value.

If an access_token provides an expiry value that falls before the current time plus the maxTimeout, IG uses the token expiry value.

The following example caches access_tokens for these times:
One hour, if the access_token doesn’t provide a valid expiry value.

The duration specified by the token expiry value, when the token expiry value is shorter than one day.

One day, when the token expiry value is longer than one day.

"cache": { "enabled": true, "defaultTimeout": "1 hour", "maxTimeout": "1 day" }

Default: 1 minute
maxTimeout: configuration expression<duration>, optional

The maximum duration for which to cache OAuth 2.0 access_tokens.

If an access_token provides an expiry value that falls after the current time plus the maxTimeout, IG uses the maxTimeout.

The duration cannot be zero or unlimited.

"amService": AmService reference, optional

(From AM 6.5.3.) The AmService to use for the WebSocket notification service. To evict revoked access_tokens from the cache, enable the notifications property of AmService.

See also AmService.

onNotificationDisconnection: configuration expression<enumeration>, optional

The strategy to manage the cache when the WebSocket notification service is disconnected, and IG receives no notifications for AM events. If the cache is not cleared it can become outdated, and IG can allow requests on revoked sessions or tokens.

Cached entries that expire naturally while the notification service is disconnected are removed from the cache.

Use one of the following values:

NEVER_CLEAR
- When the notification service is disconnected:
  - Continue to use the existing cache.
  - Deny access for requests that are not cached, but do not update the cache with these requests.
- When the notification service is reconnected:
  - Continue to use the existing cache.
  - Query AM for incoming requests that are not found in the cache, and update the cache with these requests.
CLEAR_ON_DISCONNECT
- When the notification service is disconnected:
  - Clear the cache.
  - Deny access to all requests, but do not update the cache with these requests.
- When the notification service is reconnected:
  - Query AM for all requests that are not found in the cache. (Because the cache was cleared, the cache is empty after reconnection.)
  - Update the cache with these requests.
CLEAR_ON_RECONNECT
- When the notification service is disconnected:
  - Continue to use the existing cache.
  - Deny access for requests that are not cached, but do not update the cache with these requests.
- When the notification service is reconnected:
  - Query AM for all requests that are not found in the cache. (Because the cache was cleared, the cache is empty after reconnection.)
  - Update the cache with these requests.

Default: CLEAR_ON_DISCONNECT

"executor": executor, optional: An executor service to schedule the execution of tasks, such as the eviction of entries in the access_token cache.

Default: ScheduledExecutorService

See also ScheduledExecutorService.

"requireHttps": configuration expression<boolean>, optional: Whether to require that original target URI of the request (originalUri in UriRouterContext) uses the HTTPS scheme.

If the request received by the web container is not using HTTPS, the request is rejected.

Default: true.

"realm": string, optional

HTTP authentication realm to include in the WWW-Authenticate response header field when returning an HTTP 401 Unauthorized status to a user-agent that need to authenticate.

Default: IG

"scopes": array of runtime expression<string> or ScriptableResourceAccess object, required

A list of one of more scopes that the OAuth 2.0 access_token must have.

array of runtime expression<string>, required if ScriptableResourceAccess is not used

A string, array of strings, runtime expression<string>, or array of runtime expression<string> to represent one or more scopes; mutually exclusive with ScriptableResourceAccess.

ScriptableResourceAccess, required if "array of runtime expression<string>" is not used

A script that produces a list of one or more required scopes; mutually exclusive with "array of runtime expression<string>".

The script evaluates each request dynamically and returns the scopes that request needs to access the protected resource. The script must return a Promise<Set, ResponseException> or a Set<String>.

For information about the properties of ScriptableResourceAccess, see Scripts. For an example of how to use this property, see the examples section on this page.

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "ScriptableResourceAccess",
  "config": {
    "type": string,
    "file": expression,                     // Use either "file"
    "source": string or array of strings,   // or "source", but not both.
    "args": object,
    "clientHandler": Handler reference
  }
}

Examples

For examples using OAuth2ResourceServerFilter, see Act As an OAuth 2.0 Resource Server.

Defining Required Scopes by Using a Script

The following example uses a ScriptableResourceAccess object to define the scopes required in a request:

If the request path is /rs-tokeninfo, only the scopes mail is required.
If the request path is /rs-tokeninfo/employee, the scopes mail and employeenumber are required.

PasswordReplayFilter

For requests directed to a login page, this filter extracts credentials, and replays them.

Requests that are not directed to the login page are passed along to the next filter or handler in the chain.

The PasswordReplayFilter does not retry failed authentication attempts.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "PasswordReplayFilter",
  "config": {
    "request": request configuration object,
    "loginPage": runtime expression<boolean>,
    "loginPageContentMarker": pattern,
    "credentials": Filter reference,
    "headerDecryption": crypto configuration object,
    "loginPageExtractions": [ extract configuration object, ... ]
  }
}

Properties

"request": request configuration object, required

The request that replays the credentials. The JSON object of request is the config content of a StaticRequestFilter.

"method": string, required: The HTTP method to be performed on the resource such as GET or POST.
"uri": uri string, required: The fully qualified URI of the resource to access, such as http://www.example.com/login.
"entity": expression, optional: The entity body to include in the request.

When the method is set to POST, this setting is mutually exclusive with form.

See also Expressions.
"form": object, optional: A form to include in the request.

The param specifies the form parameter name. Its value is an array of expressions to evaluate as form field values.

When the method is set to POST, this setting is mutually exclusive with entity.
"headers": object, optional: Header fields to set in the request.

The name specifies the header name. Its value is an array of expressions to evaluate as header values.
"version": string, optional: The HTTP protocol version.

Default: "HTTP/1.1".

"loginPage": runtime expression<boolean>, required unless loginPageContentMarker is defined

When the expression evaluates to true, direct the request to a login page, extract credentials, and replay them.

When false, pass the request unchanged to the next filter or handler in the chain.

The following example expression resolves to true when the request is an HTTP GET, and the request URI path is /login:

${matches(request.uri.path, '/login') and (request.method == 'GET')}

"loginPageContentMarker": pattern, required unless loginPage is defined

A pattern that matches when a response entity is that of a login page.

For an example route that uses this property, see Login Form With Password Replay and Cookie Filters.

Example

The following example authenticates requests using static credentials when the request URI path is /login. This PasswordReplayFilter example does not include any mechanism for remembering when authentication has already been successful, it simply replays the authentication every time that the request URI path is /login:

{
  "handler": {
    "type": "Chain",
    "config": {
      "filters": [{
        "type": "PasswordReplayFilter",
        "config": {
          "loginPage": "${request.uri.path == '/login'}",
          "request": {
            "method": "POST",
            "uri": "https://www.example.com:8444/login",
            "form": {
              "username": [
                "MY_USERNAME"
              ],
              "password": [
                "MY_PASSWORD"
              ]
            }
          }
        }
      }],
      "handler": "ReverseProxyHandler"
    }
  }
}

For additional examples, see Configuration Templates, and the Javadoc for the PasswordReplayFilter class.

More Information

org.forgerock.openig.filter.PasswordReplayFilterHeaplet

PolicyEnforcementFilter

Requests policy decisions from AM, which allows or denies the request based on the request context, the request URI, and the AM policies.

Supported with AM 5 and later versions.

Processing Requests After a Policy Decision

After a policy decision, IG continues to process requests as follows:

If the request is allowed, processing continues.
If the request is denied with advices, IG checks whether it can respond to the advices. If IG can respond, it sends a redirect and information about how to meet the conditions in the advices.

By default, the request is redirected to AM. If the SingleSignOnFilter property loginEndpoint is configured, the request is redirected to that endpoint.
If the request is denied without advice, or if IG cannot respond to the advice, IG forwards the request to a failureHandler declared in the PolicyEnforcementFilter. If there is no failureHandler, IG returns a 403 Forbidden.
If an error occurs during the process, IG returns 500 Internal Server Error.

Using Advices From Policy Decisions

Attributes and advices returned by the policy decision are stored in the policyDecision context. For information, see PolicyDecisionContext.

IG responds to the following advice types from AM:

AuthLevel: The minimum authentication level at which a user-agent must authenticate to access a resource.
AuthenticateToService: The name of an authorization chain or service to which a user-agent must authenticate to access a resource.
AuthenticateToRealm: The name of a realm to which a user-agent must authenticate to access a resource.
AuthScheme: The name of an authentication module to which a user-agent must authenticate to access a resource, the policy set name, and the authentication timeout.
Transaction: The additional actions that a user-agent must perform before having a one-time access to the protected resource. Supported with AM 5.5 and later versions.

Notes on Configuring Policies in AM

In the AM policy, remember to configure the Resources parameter with the URI of the protected application.

The request URI from IG must match the Resources parameter defined in the AM policy. If the URI of the incoming request is changed before it enters the policy filter (for example, by rebasing or scripting), remember to change the Resources parameter in AM policy accordingly.

WebSocket Notifications for Policy Changes

When WebSocket notifications are set up for changes to policies, IG receives a notification from AM when a policy decision is created, deleted, or updated.

For information about setting up WebSocket notifications, using them to clear the policy cache, and including them in the server logs, see WebSocket Notifications.

ssoTokenSubject can take the following values:

${contexts.ssoToken.value}, when the SingleSignOnFilter is used for authentication
${contexts.ssoToken.value} or ${contexts.cdsso.token}, when the CrossDomainSingleSignOnFilter is used for authentication

When there is no SSO (API protection), ssoTokenSubject usually points to a header value such as ${request.headers.iPlanetDirectoryPro[0]}, where iPlanetDirectoryPro is the name of the default AM session cookie. To find the name of your AM session cookie, see Find the Name of Your AM Session Cookie.

"jwtSubject": _runtime expression<string>, required if neither of the following properties are present: ssoTokenSubject, claimsSubject

The JWT string for the subject making the request to the protected resource.

To use the raw id_token (base64, not decoded) returned by the OpenID Connect Provider during authentication, place an OAuth2ClientFilter filter before the PEP filter, and then use ${attributes.openid.id_token} as the expression value.

See also OAuth2ClientFilter and Expressions.

"claimsSubject": _map or runtime expression<map>, required if neither of the following properties are present: jwtSubject, ssoTokenSubject

A representation of JWT claims for the subject.

The claim "sub" must be specified. Other claims are optional.

When this property is an expression, its evaluation must give an object of type Map<String, Object>.

"claimsSubject": "${attributes.openid.id_token_claims}"

When this property is a map, the structure must have the format Map<String, Object>. The value is evaluated as an expression.

"claimsSubject": {
  "sub": "${attributes.subject_identifier}",
  "iss": "openam.example.com"
}

For an example of using claimsSubject as a map, see Example Policy Enforcement Using claimsSubject on this reference page.

"application": configuration expression<string>, optional

The ID of the AM policy set to use when requesting policy decisions.

Default: iPlanetAMWebAgentService, provided by AM’s default policy set

cache: object, optional

Enable and configure caching of policy decisions from AM, based on Caffeine. For more information, see the GitHub entry, Caffeine.

{
  "cache": {
    "enabled": configuration expression<boolean>,
    "defaultTimeout": configuration expression<duration>,
    "executor": executor service reference,
    "maximumSize": configuration expression<number>,
    "maximumTimeToCache": configuration expression<duration>,
    "onNotificationDisconnection": configuration expression<enumeration>
  }
}

Default: Policy decisions are not cached.

Policy decisions that contain advices are never cached.

The following code example caches AM policy decisions without advices for these times:

One hour, when the policy decision doesn’t provide a ttl value.
The duration specified by the ttl, when ttl is shorter than one day.
One day, when ttl is longer than one day.

"cache": {
  "enabled": true,
  "defaultTimeout": "1 hour",
  "maximumTimeToCache": "1 day"
}

enabled: configuration expression<boolean>, optional: Enable or disable caching of policy decisions.

When a policy decision is cached, IG can reuse the policy decision without repeatedly asking AM for a new policy decision. When caching is disabled, IG must ask AM to make a decision for each request.

Default: false
defaultTimeout: configuration expression<duration>, optional: The default duration for which to cache AM policy decisions.

If an AM policy decision provides a valid ttl value to specify the time until which the policy decision remains valid, IG uses that value or the maxTimeout.

Default: 1 minute
executor: executor service reference, optional: An executor service to schedule the execution of tasks, such as the eviction of entries in the cache.

Default: ForkJoinPool.commonPool()
"maximumSize": configuration expression<number>, optional: The maximum number of entries the cache can contain.

Default: Unlimited/unbound.
maximumTimeToCache: configuration expression<duration>, optional: The maximum duration for which to cache AM policy decisions.

If the ttl value provided by the AM policy decision is after the current time plus the maximumTimeToCache, IG uses the maximumTimeToCache.

The duration cannot be zero or unlimited.

onNotificationDisconnection: configuration expression<enumeration>, optional

Cached entries that expire naturally while the notification service is disconnected are removed from the cache.

Use one of the following values:

NEVER_CLEAR
- When the notification service is disconnected:
  - Continue to use the existing cache.
  - Deny access for requests that are not cached, but do not update the cache with these requests.
- When the notification service is reconnected:
  - Continue to use the existing cache.
  - Query AM for incoming requests that are not found in the cache, and update the cache with these requests.
CLEAR_ON_DISCONNECT
- When the notification service is disconnected:
  - Clear the cache.
  - Deny access to all requests, but do not update the cache with these requests.
- When the notification service is reconnected:
  - Query AM for all requests that are not found in the cache. (Because the cache was cleared, the cache is empty after reconnection.)
  - Update the cache with these requests.
CLEAR_ON_RECONNECT
- When the notification service is disconnected:
  - Continue to use the existing cache.
  - Deny access for requests that are not cached, but do not update the cache with these requests.
- When the notification service is reconnected:
  - Query AM for all requests that are not found in the cache. (Because the cache was cleared, the cache is empty after reconnection.)
  - Update the cache with these requests.

Default: CLEAR_ON_DISCONNECT

"environment": map or runtime expression<map>, optional

A list of strings to forward to AM with the request for a policy decision, that represent the environment (or context) of the request. Forward any HTTP header or any value that the AM policy definition can use.

AM can use the environment conditions to set the circumstances under which a policy applies. For example, environment conditions can specify that the policy applies only during working hours or only when accessing from a specific IP address.

If this property is a map, the structure must have the format Map<String, List<String>>. In the following example, the PolicyEnforcementFilter forwards standard and non-standard request headers, an ID token, and the IP address of the subject making the request:

"environment": {
  "H-Via": "${request.headers['Via']}",
  "H-X-Forwarded-For": "${request.headers['X-Forwarded-For']}",
  "H-myHeader": "${request.headers['myHeader']}",
  "id_token": [
    "${attributes.openid.id_token}"
  ],
  "IP": [
    "${contexts.client.remoteAddress}"
  ]
}

If this property is an expression, its evaluation must give an object of type Map<String, List<String>>.

"environment": "${attributes.my_environment}"

"failureHandler": handler reference, optional

Handler to treat the request if it is denied by the policy decision.

In the following example, the failureHandler is a chain with a scriptable filter. If there are some advices with the policy decision, the script recovers the advices for processing. Otherwise, it passes the request to the StaticResponseHandler to display a message.

"failureHandler": {
  "type": "Chain",
  "config": {
    "filters": [
      {
        "type": "ScriptableFilter",
        "config": {
          "type": "application/x-groovy",
          "source": [
            "if (contexts.policyDecision.advices['MyCustomAdvice'] != null) {",
            "  return handleCustomAdvice(context, request)",
            "} else {",
            "  return next.handle(context, request)",
            "}"
          ]
        }
      }
    ],
    "handler": {
      "type": "StaticResponseHandler",
      "config": {
        "status": 403,
        "headers": {
          "Content-Type": [ "text/plain" ]
        },
        "entity": "Restricted area. You do not have sufficient privileges."
      }
    }
  }
}

Provide an inline handler configuration object, or the name of a handler object declared in the heap. See also Handlers.

Default: HTTP 403 Forbidden, the request stops being executed.

"resourceUriProvider": ResourceUriProvider reference, optional

Return the resource URL to include in policy decision requests to AM. Configure one of the following ResourceUriProviders inline or in the heap:

RequestResourceUriProvider
ScriptableResourceUriProvider

Default: RequestResourceUriProvider
RequestResourceUriProvider
Return the resource URL to include in policy decision requests to AM by using the original URI of the request or the baseURI of the route.
"resourceUriProvider": { "type": "RequestResourceUriProvider", "config": { "useOriginalUri": runtime expression<boolean>, "includeQueryParams": runtime expression<boolean> } }
useOriginalUri: runtime expression<boolean>, optional

In policy decision requests to AM, use the original URI of the request as the resource URL.

true: Use the original URI of the request as the resource URL when requesting policy decisions from AM.

false: Use the baseURI of the route as the resource URL when requesting policy decisions from AM.
Default: false
includeQueryParams: runtime expression<boolean>, optional
Include query parameters in the resource URL when requesting policy decisions from AM:
true: Include query parameters in the resource URL. For example, use the following URL with a query parameter: http://openig.example.com:8080/login?demo=capture.

false: Exclude query parameters from the resource URL. For example, exclude the query parameter from the previous example: http://openig.example.com:8080/login.

For AM policies that specify resource URLs without query parameters, use this option to reduce the amount of cached information.

Default: true

ScriptableResourceUriProvider

Use a script to return the resource URL to include in policy decision requests to AM. The result of the script must be a string that represents the resource to be used in the policy decision request sent to AM.

"resourceUriProvider": {
  "type": "ScriptableResourceUriProvider",
  "config": {
    "type": string,
    "file": expression,                     // Use either "file"
    "source": string or array of strings,   // or "source", but not both.
    "args": object,
    "clientHandler": Handler reference
  }
}

For information about these properties, see Scripts.

The following example script replaces existing query parameters with a single parameter:

"resourceUriProvider": {
  "type": "ScriptableResourceUriProvider",
  "config": {
    "type": "application/x-groovy",
    "source": [
      "request.uri.setQuery('fromIG=true')",
      "return request.uri.toASCIIString()"
    ]
  }
}

Example Policy Enforcement Using claimsSubject

This route is a variant of the route in Enforce AM Policy Decisions In the Same Domain. It enforces a policy decision from AM, using claimsSubject instead of ssoTokenSubject to identify the subject.

To use this route:

Set up AM as described in Enforce AM Policy Decisions In the Same Domain.
In AM, select the policy you created in the previous step, and add a new resource:
- Resource Type : URL
- Resource pattern : *://*:*/*
- Resource value : http://app.example.com:8081/home/pep-claims
In the same policy, add the following subject condition:
- Any of
- Type : OpenID Connect/JwtClaim
- claimName : iss
- claimValue : openam.example.com
Set an environment variable for the IG agent password, and then restart IG:
```
$ export AGENT_SECRET_ID='cGFzc3dvcmQ='
```
The password is retrieved by a SystemAndEnvSecretStore, and must be base64-encoded.

Add the following route to serve static resources, such as .css, for the sample application:

Linux
Windows

$HOME/.openig/config/routes/static-resources.json

appdata\OpenIG\config\routes\static-resources.json

{
  "name" : "sampleapp-resources",
  "baseURI" : "http://app.example.com:8081",
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path,'^/css')}",
  "handler": "ReverseProxyHandler"
}

Add the following route to IG:

Linux
Windows

$HOME/.openig/config/routes/04-pep-claims.json

appdata\OpenIG\config\routes\04-pep-claims.json

{
  "name": "pep-claims",

            "claimsSubject": {
              "sub": "${contexts.ssoToken.info.uid}",
              "iss": "openam.example.com"
            },
            "amService": "AmService-1"
          }
        }
      ],
      "handler": "ReverseProxyHandler"
    }
  }
}

Go to http://openig.example.com:8080/home/pep-claims.
Log in to AM as user demo, password Ch4ng31t.

AM returns a policy decision that grants access to the sample application.

ScriptableFilter

Processes requests and responses by using a Groovy script.

When a ScriptableFilter processes a request, it can execute return next.handle(context, request) to call the next filter or handler in the current chain and return the value from the call. Actions on the response must be performed in the Promise’s callback methods.

Scripts must return a Promise<Response, NeverThrowsException> or a Response.

This section describes the usage of ScriptableFilter, and refers to the following sections of the documentation:

For information about script properties, available global objects, and automatically imported classes, see Scripts.
For information about creating scriptable objects in Studio, see Scripts in Studio and Configure Scriptable Throttling.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "ScriptableFilter",
    "config": {
        "type": string,
        "file": expression,                     // Use either "file"
        "source": string or array of strings,   // or "source", but not both.
        "args": object,
        "clientHandler": Handler reference
    }
}

Properties

For information about properties for ScriptableFilter, see Scripts.

Examples

For an example scriptable filter that recovers policy advices from AM, see the failureHandler property of PolicyEnforcementFilter.

SessionInfoFilter

Calls the AM endpoint for session information, and makes the data available as a new context to downstream IG filters and handlers. For information, see SessionInfoContext.

Supported with AM 5 and later versions.

WebSocket Notifications for Sessions

For information about setting up WebSocket notifications, using them to clear the session cache, and including them in the server logs, see WebSocket Notifications.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "SessionInfoFilter",
  "config": {
    "amService": AmService reference,
    "ssoToken": runtime expression<string>
  }
}

Properties

"amService": AmService reference, required: The AmService heap object to use for the following properties:

agent, the credentials of the IG agent in AM. When the agent is authenticated, the token can be used for tasks such as getting the user’s profile, making policy evaluations, and connecting to the AM notification endpoint.

url, the URL of an AM service to use for session token validation and authentication.
amHandler, the handler to use when communicating with AM to validate the token in the incoming request.

realm: Realm of the IG agent in AM.

version: The version of the AM server.

sessionProperties, the list of user session properties to retrieve from AM. The following properties are retrieved:
- When sessionProperties in AmService is configured, listed session properties with a value.
- When sessionProperties in AmService is not configured, all session properties with a value.
- Properties with a value that are required by IG but not specified by sessionProperties in AmService. For example, when the session cache is enabled, session properties related to the cache are automatically retrieved.
Properties with a value are returned, properties with a null value are not returned.

"ssoToken": runtime expression<string>, optional

Location of the AM SSO token. For example, with ${request.headers['mySsoToken'][0]} the SSO token is the first value of the mySsoToken header in the request.

Default: ${request.cookies['AmService-ssoTokenHeader'][0].value}, where AmService-ssoTokenHeader is the name of the header or cookie where the AmService expects to find SSO tokens.

Examples

In the following example, the SingleSignOnFilter requires authentication with AM before passing the request along the chain. The SessionInfoFilter collects session info from AM and stores it in the ${contexts.amSession} context. Then the HeaderFilter adds headers containing some of the session info to the request. The session info is then displayed on the home page of the sample application:

{
  "name": "session-info",
  "baseURI": "http://app.example.com:8081",
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '^/home/session-info')}",
  "heap": [
    {
      "name": "SystemAndEnvSecretStore-1",
      "type": "SystemAndEnvSecretStore"
    },
    {

      "filters": [
        {
          "name": "SingleSignOnFilter",
          "type": "SingleSignOnFilter",
          "config": {
            "amService": "AmService-1"
          }
        },
        {
          "name": "SessionInfoFilter",
          "type": "SessionInfoFilter",
          "config": {

            }
          }
        }
      ],
      "handler": "ReverseProxyHandler"
    }
  }
}

To try this example:

Add an agent for IG as described in Set Up an IG Agent in AM.
With AM, IG, and the sample application running, access the route on http://openig.example.com:8080/home/session-info, and then log in to AM as user demo, password Ch4ng31t.

The home page of the sample application is displayed.

Note that the header x-ig-sessioninfo and its values are displayed:

x-ig-sessioninfo: username: demo, realm: /, properties: {Locale=...
...
UserToken=demo}

To capture additional session properties from AM:

On AM, as admin, and add the property user-status to the Session Property Whitelist Service. For information, see Session Property Whitelist Service in AM’s Reference.

Post the value gold to user-status:

$ curl --request POST --header "iPlanetDirectoryPro: token" \
--header 'Accept-API-Version: resource=2.0' \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
'http://openam.example.com:8088/openam/json/sessions/?_action=updateSessionProperties' \
--data '{"user-status":"gold"}'

Where iPlanetDirectoryPro is the name of the default AM session cookie, and token is its value. To find the name of your AM session cookie, see Find the Name of Your AM Session Cookie.

On IG, access the route and note that user-status is displayed:

x-ig-sessioninfo: username: demo, realm: /, properties: {...
user-status=gold
...}

SetCookieUpdateFilter

Updates the attribute values of Set-Cookie headers in a cookie. This filter facilitates the transition to the SameSite and secure cookie settings required by newer browsers. Use SetCookieUpdateFilter at the beginning of a chain to guarantee security along the chain.

Set-Cookie headers must conform to grammar in rfc6265, section 4.1 SetCookie.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "SetCookieUpdateFilter",
  "config": {
   "cookies": {
     "cookie-name": {
       "attribute-name": "attribute-value"
       ...
     }
     ...
   }
 }
}

Properties

"cookies": runtime expression<map>, required

Configuration that matches case-sensitive cookie names to response cookies, and specifies how matching cookies attribute values should be updated. Each cookie begins with a name-value pair, where the value is one or more attribute-value pairs.

cookie-name: pattern, required

The name of a cookie contained in the Set-Cookie header, as a pattern.

Specify .* to change the attribute value on all existing cookies.

If a cookie is named more than once, either explicitly or by the wildcard (*), the rules are applied to the cookie in the order they appear in the map.

In the following example, the SameSite attribute of the CSRF cookie first takes the value none, and then that value is overwritten by the value LAX.

"cookies": {
  "CSRF": {
    "value": "myValue",
    "secure": ${true},
    "SameSite": "none"
  }
  ".*": {
    "SameSite": "LAX"
  }
}

attribute-name: string, required

A case-insensitive string representing a Set-Cookie attribute name.

Attribute names include SameSite, secure, http-only, value, expires, Max-Age, path, and domain.

For more information, see Set-Cookie.

attribute-value: runtime expression<string, boolean, or integer>, required

The replacement value for the named attribute. The value must conform to the expected type for the attribute name:

secure: runtime expression<boolean>. Required if SameSite is none
http-only: runtime expression<boolean>.
Max-Age: runtime expression<integer>.
SameSite, and all other attribute names: runtime expression<string>.

For all values except expires, specify ${previous} to reuse the existing value for the attribute. The following example adds five seconds to the Max-Age attribute:
```
"Max-Age": "${integer(previous+5)}",
```
If the named the Set-Cookie header doesn’t contain the named attribute, ${previous} returns null.

Examples

The following example updates attributes of all existing Set-Cookie headers:

{
  "name": "SetCookieUpdateFilter",
  "condition": "${find(request.uri.path, '/home')}",
  "baseURI": "http://app.example.com:8081",
  "heap": [],
  "handler": {
    "type": "Chain",
    "config": {
      "filters": [{
        "type": "SetCookieUpdateFilter",
        "config": {
          "cookies": {
            ".*": {
              "SameSite": "LAX",
              "domain": "openig.example.com",
              "Max-Age": "${session.maxAge}",
              "Secure": "${true}"
            }
          }
        }
      }],
      "handler": "ReverseProxyHandler"
    }
  }
}

SingleSignOnFilter

Tests for the presence and validity of an SSO token in the cookie header of a request:

If an SSO token is present, the filter calls AM to validate the SSO token. If the SSO token is valid, the request continues along the chain. The token value and additional information are stored in the ssoToken context. For information, see SsoTokenContext.
If the SSO token is not present, or is empty or invalid, IG checks the goto query parameter for the presence of the redirection marker:
- If the redirection marker parameter is present (for example, _ig=true), IG fails the request because the cookie domain is incorrectly configured.
- If the redirection marker is not present, IG redirects the user-agent to the AM login page or another provided login page. For information about enabling, disabling, and naming the redirection marker, see the redirectionMarker property on this page.

Supported with AM 5 and later versions.

For more information about SSO, see Single Sign-On and Cross-Domain Single Sign-On.

To prevent issues with performance when accessing large resources, such as .jpg and .js files, consider using the SingleSignOnFilter with the following options:

The sessionCache, so that IG can reuse session token information without repeatedly asking AM to verify the session token.
A ConditionalFilter, so that requests to access large resources skip the SingleSignOnFilter. For an example configuration, see the example in ConditionalFilter.

When AM is using CTS-based sessions, it does not monitor idle time for client-based sessions, and so refresh requests are ignored.

When the SingleSignOnFilter is used for authentication with AM, after a time AM can view the session as idle even though the user continues to interact with IG. The user session can eventually time out.

(From AM 6.5.3.) When AM is using CTS-based sessions, use the sessionIdleRefresh property of AmService to refresh idle sessions, and prevent unwanted timeouts.

WebSocket Notifications for Sessions

For information about setting up WebSocket notifications, using them to clear the session cache, and including them in the server logs, see WebSocket Notifications.

Properties

"amService": AmService reference, required

An AmService object to use for the following properties:

agent, the credentials of the IG agent in AM. When the agent is authenticated, the token can be used for tasks such as getting the user’s profile, making policy evaluations, and connecting to the AM notification endpoint.
realm: Realm of the IG agent in AM.
url, the URL of an AM service to use for session token validation and authentication when loginEndpoint is not specified.
ssoTokenHeader, the name of the cookie that contains the session token created by AM.
amHandler, the handler to use when communicating with AM to validate the token in the incoming request.
sessionCache, the configuration of a cache for session information from AM.
version: The version of the AM server.

redirectionMarker: object, optional

"redirectionMarker": {
   "enabled": configuration expression<boolean>,
   "name": configuration expression<string>
}

enabled: configuration expression<boolean>, optional: When true, use a redirection marker to limit the number of authentication redirects.

When there is no SSO session due to, for example, SSO cookie name misconfiguration, an authentication request fails and is redirected back to IG. The scenario can result in infinite authentication redirects.

Consider enabling the redirection marker during development, then disabling it to prevent it being captured in bookmarks.

+ Default: true

name: configuration expression<string>, optional: The name of the redirection marker query parameter to use when enabled is true.

Default: _ig

"authenticationService": configuration expression<uri string>,optional: The name of an AM authentication tree or authentication chain to use for authentication.

Default: AM’s default authentication service.

For an example that uses authenticationService, see Authenticate With SSO Through an AM Authentication Tree.

For more information about authentication trees and chains, see Authentication Nodes and Trees and Authentication Modules and Chains in AM’s Authentication and Single Sign-On Guide.
"realm": string, optional: The AM realm where the user is authenticated.

Default: The realm declared for amService.

"defaultLogoutLandingPage": configuration expression<url>, optional

The URL to which a request is redirected if logoutExpression is evaluated as true.

If this property is not an absolute URL, the request is redirected to the IG domain name.

This parameter is effective only when logoutExpression is specified.

Default: None, processing continues.

"loginEndpoint": runtime expression<url>, optional

The URL of a service instance for the following tasks:

Manage authentication and the location to which the request is redirected after authentication.
Process policy advices after an AM policy decision denies a request with supported advices. The PolicyEnforcementFilter redirects the request to this URL, with information about how to meet the conditions in the advices.

For examples of different advice types, and the conditions that cause AM to return advices, see AM’s Authorization Guide. For information about supported advice types in IG, see Using Advices From Policy Decisions.

Default: The value of url in amService

Authentication can be performed in the following ways:

Directly through AM, with optional authentication parameters in the query string, such as service, module, and realm. For a list of authentication parameters that you can include in the query string, see Authenticating (Browser) in AM’s Authentication and Single Sign-On Guide.

The value must include a redirect with a goto parameter.

The following example uses AM as the authentication service, and includes the service authentication parameter:
```
"loginEndpoint": "https://openam.example.com/openam?service=TwoFactor&goto=${urlEncodeQueryParameterNameOrValue(contexts.router.originalUri)}"
```
Through the URL of another application, with optional authentication parameters in the query string, such as service, module, and realm. The application must create a session with an AM instance to set an SSO token and return the request to the redirect location.

The value can optionally include a redirect with a goto parameter or different parameter name.

The following example uses an authentication service that is not AM, and includes a redirect parameter:
```
"loginEndpoint": "https://authservice.example.com/auth?redirect=${urlEncodeQueryParameterNameOrValue(contexts.router.originalUri)}"
```
When using this option, review the cookie domains to make sure that cookies set by the authentication server are properly conveyed to the IG instance.

"logoutExpression": runtime expression<boolean>, optional

An expression to define a condition for logout, based on the request. If the expression evaluates to true, the AM session token for the end user is revoked.

If a defaultLogoutLandingPage is specified, the request is redirected to that page. Otherwise, the request continues to be processed.

The following example expressions can be used to trigger revocation of the end user token:

The request URI contains /logout:
```
${matches(request.uri, '/logout')}
```

The request path starts with /logout:

${matches(request.uri.path, '^/logout')}

The request query includes the logOff=true query parameter:
```
${matches(request.uri.query, 'logOff=true')}
```

Default: Logout is not managed by this filter.

SqlAttributesFilter

Executes a SQL query through a prepared statement and exposes its first result. Parameters in the prepared statement are derived from expressions. The query result is exposed in an object whose location is specified by the target expression. If the query yields no result, then the resulting object is empty.

The execution of the query is performed lazily; it does not occur until the first attempt to access a value in the target. This defers the overhead of connection pool, network and database query processing until a value is first required. This also means that the parameters expressions is not evaluated until the object is first accessed.

Usage

{
     "name": string,
     "type": "SqlAttributesFilter",
     "config": {
         "dataSource": JdbcDataSource reference,
         "preparedStatement": string,
         "parameters": [ runtime expression<string>, ... ],
         "target": lvalue-expression
     }
}

Properties

"dataSource": JdbcDataSource reference, required: The JdbcDataSource to use for connections. Configure JdbcDataSource as described in JdbcDataSource.
"preparedStatement": string, required: The parameterized SQL query to execute, with ? parameter placeholders.
"parameters": array of runtime expressions<string>, optional: The parameters to evaluate and include in the execution of the prepared statement.

See also Expressions.
"target": lvalue-expression, required: Expression that yields the target object that will contain the query results.

See also Expressions.

Example

Using the user’s session ID from a cookie, query the database to find the user logged in and set the profile attributes in the attributes context:

{
        "name": "SqlAttributesFilter",
        "type": "SqlAttributesFilter",
        "config": {
              "target": "${attributes.sql}",
              "dataSource": "java:comp/env/jdbc/mysql",
              "preparedStatement": "SELECT f.value AS 'first', l.value AS 'last', u.mail AS 'email', GROUP_CONCAT(CAST(r.rid AS CHAR)) AS 'roles' FROM sessions s INNER JOIN users u ON ( u.uid = s.uid AND u.status = 1 ) LEFT OUTER JOIN profile_values f ON ( f.uid = u.uid AND f.fid = 1 ) LEFT OUTER JOIN profile_values l ON ( l.uid = u.uid AND l.fid = 2 ) LEFT OUTER JOIN users_roles r ON ( r.uid = u.uid ) WHERE (s.sid = ? AND s.uid <> 0) GROUP BY s.sid;",
              "parameters": [ "${request.cookies[keyMatch(request.cookies,'JSESSION1234')][0].value}" ]
         }
 }

Lines are folded for readability in this example. In your JSON, keep the values for "preparedStatement" and "parameters" on one line.

StaticRequestFilter

Creates a new request, replacing any existing request. The request can include an entity specified in the entity parameter. Alternatively, the request can include a form, specified in the form parameter, which is included in an entity encoded in application/x-www-form-urlencoded format if request method is POST, or otherwise as (additional) query parameters in the URI. The form and entity parameters cannot be used together when the method is set to POST.

Usage

{
     "name": string,
     "type": "StaticRequestFilter",
     "config": {
         "method": string,
         "uri": runtime expression<uri string>,
         "version": string,
         "headers": {
             configuration expression<string>: [ runtime expression<string>, ... ], ...
         },
         "form": {
             configuration expression<string>: [ runtime expression<string>, ... ], ...
         },
         "entity": runtime expression<string>
     }
}

Properties

"method": string, required

The HTTP method to be performed on the resource (for example, "GET").

"uri": runtime expression<uri string>, required

The fully-qualified URI of the resource to access (for example, "http://www.example.com/resource.txt").

"version": string, optional

Protocol version. Default: "HTTP/1.1".

"headers": object, optional

Header fields to set in the request, with the format name: [ value, … ].

The name field of headers specifies the header name. It can be defined by a configuration expression or string. If the configuration expressions for multiple name resolve to the same final string, multiple values are associated with the name.

The value field of headers is an array of runtime expressions to evaluate as header values.

In the following example, the name of the header is the value of the configuration time, system variable defined in cookieHeaderName. The value of the header is the runtime value stored in contexts.ssoToken.value:

"headers": {
  "${application['header1Name']}": [
    "${application['header1Value'}"
  ]
}

"form": object, optional

A form to include in the request, with the format param: [ value, … ].

The param field of form specifies the name of the form parameter. It can be defined by a configuration expression or string. If the configuration expressions for multiple param resolve to the same final string, multiple values are associated with the param.

The value field of form is an array of runtime expressions to evaluate as form field values.

When the method is set to POST, this setting is mutually exclusive with the entity setting.

In the following example, the names of the field parameters and the values are hardcoded in the form:

"form": {
  "username": [
    "{amDemoUn}"
  ],
  "password": [
    "{amDemoPw}"
  ]
}

In the following example, the names of the field parameters are hardcoded. The values take the first value of username and password provided in the session:

"form": {
  "username": [
    "${session.username[0]}"
  ],
  "password": [
    "${session.password[0]}"
  ]
}

In the following example, the name of the first field param take the value of the expression ${application['formName']} when it is evaluated at startup. The values take the first value of username and password provided in the session:

"form": {
  "${application['formName']}": [
    "${session.username[0]}"
  ],
  "${application['formPassword']}": [
    "${session.password[0]}"
  ]
}

"entity": runtime expression<string>, optional

The entity body to include in the request.

This setting is mutually exclusive with the form setting when the method is set to POST.

See also Expressions.

Example

In the following example, IG replaces the browser’s original HTTP GET request with an HTTP POST login request containing credentials to authenticate to the sample application. For information about how to set up and test this example, see the Getting Started.

SwitchFilter

Verifies that a specified condition is met. If the condition is met or no condition is specified, the request is diverted to the associated handler, with no further processing by the switch filter.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "SwitchFilter",
    "config": {
        "onRequest": [
            {
                "condition": runtime expression<boolean>,
                "handler": Handler reference
            },
            ...
        ],
        "onResponse": [
            {
                "condition": runtime expression<boolean>,
                "handler": Handler reference
            },
            ...
        ]
    }
}

Properties

"onRequest": array of objects, optional: Conditions to test (and handler to dispatch to, if true) before the request is handled.
"onResponse": array of objects, optional: Conditions to test (and handler to dispatch to, if true) after the response is handled.
"condition": runtime expression<boolean>, optional: If the expression evaluates to true, the request is dispatched to the handler. If no condition is specified, the request is dispatched to the handler unconditionally.

Default: No condition is specified.

See also Expressions.
"handler": Handler reference, required: Dispatch to this handler if the condition yields true.

Provide either the name of a Handler object defined in the heap, or an inline Handler configuration object.

See also Handlers.

Example

This example intercepts the response if it is equal to 200 and executes the LoginRequestHandler. This filter might be used in a login flow where the request for the login page must go through to the target, but the response should be intercepted in order to send the login form to the application. This is typical for scenarios where there is a hidden value or cookie returned in the login page, which must be sent in the login form:

{
    "name": "SwitchFilter",
    "type": "SwitchFilter",
    "config": {
        "onResponse": [
            {
                "condition": "${response.status.code == 200}",
                "handler": "LoginRequestHandler"
            }
        ]
    }
}

ThrottlingFilter

Limits the rate that requests pass through a filter. The maximum number of requests that a client is allowed to make in a defined time is called the throttling rate.

When the throttling rate is reached, IG issues an HTTP status code 429 Too Many Requests and a Retry-After header, whose value is rounded up to the number of seconds to wait before trying the request again.

GET http://openig.example.com:8080/home/throttle-scriptable HTTP/1.1
. . .
HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests
Retry-After: 10

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "ThrottlingFilter",
    "config": {
        "requestGroupingPolicy": runtime expression<string>,
        "throttlingRatePolicy": reference or inline declaration,  //Use either "throttlingRatePolicy"
        "rate": {                                                 //or "rate", but not both.
            "numberOfRequests": integer,
            "duration": duration string
        },
        "cleaningInterval": duration string,
        "executor": executor
    }
}

Properties

"requestGroupingPolicy": runtime expression<string>, optional

An expression to identify the partition to use for the request. In many cases the partition identifies an individual client that sends requests, but it can also identify a group that sends requests. The expression can evaluate to the client IP address or user ID, or an OpenID Connect subject/issuer.

The value for this expression must not be null.

Default: Empty string; all requests share the same partition

See also Expressions.

"throttlingRatePolicy": reference or inline declaration, required if rate is not used

A reference to or inline declaration of a policy to apply for throttling rate. The following policies can be used:

This value for this parameter must not be null.

"rate": rate object, required if throttlingRatePolicy is not used

The throttling rate to apply to requests. The rate is calculated as the number of requests divided by the duration:

"numberOfRequests": integer, required: The number of requests allowed through the filter in the time specified by "duration".

"duration": duration string, required: A time interval during which the number of requests passing through the filter is counted.

"cleaningInterval": duration, optional: The time to wait before cleaning outdated partitions. The value must be more than zero but not more than one day.
"executor": executor, optional: An executor service to schedule the execution of tasks, such as the clean up of partitions that are no longer used.

Default: ScheduledExecutorService

See also ScheduledExecutorService.

Examples

The following route defines a throttling rate of 6 requests/10 seconds to requests. For information about how to set up and test this example, see Configure Simple Throttling.

TokenTransformationFilter

Transforms a token issued by AM to another token type.

The TokenTransformationFilter makes the result of the token transformation

available to downstream handlers in the sts context. For information, see StsContext.

The current implementation uses REST Security Token Service (STS) APIs to transform an OpenID Connect ID Token (id_token) into a SAML 2.0 assertion. The subject confirmation method is Bearer, as described in Profiles for the OASIS Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) V2.0 .

The TokenTransformationFilter makes the result of the token transformation available to downstream handlers in the issuedToken property of the ${contexts.sts} context.

The TokenTransformationFilter configuration references a REST STS instance that must be set up in AM before the TokenTransformationFilter can be used. The REST STS instance exposes a preconfigured transformation under a specific REST endpoint. For information about setting up a REST STS instance, see the AM documentation.

Errors that occur during the token transformation cause a error response to be returned to the client and an error message to be logged for the IG administrator.

Supported with OpenAM 13.5, and AM 5 and later versions.

Usage

{
    "name": "string",
    "type": "TokenTransformationFilter",
    "config": {
        "amService": AmService reference,
        "idToken": runtime expression<string>,
        "instance": "expression"
    }
}

Properties

"amService": AmService reference, required

The AmService heap object to use for the following properties:

agent, the credentials of the IG agent in AM, to authenticate IG as an AM REST STS client, and to communicate WebSocket notifications from AM to IG. This credentials are evaluated when the route is initialized
url, the URL of an AM service to use for session token validation and authentication. Authentication and REST STS requests are made to this service.
realm, the AM realm containing the following information:
- The AM application that can make the REST STS request and whose credentials are the username and password.
- The STS instance described by the instance field.
ssoTokenHeader, the name of the HTTP header that provides the SSO token for the REST STS client subject.
amHandler, the handler to use for authentication and STS requests to AM.

See also Expressions.

"instance": expression, required

An expression evaluating to the name of the REST STS instance.

This expression is evaluated when the route is initialized, so the expression cannot refer to request or contexts.

See also Expressions.

Example

The following example shows a configuration for a TokenTransformationFilter:

{
  "type": "TokenTransformationFilter",
  "config": {
    "amService": "MyAmService",
    "idToken": "${attributes.openid.id_token}",
    "instance": "openig"
  }
}

For an example of how to set up and test the TokenTransformationFilter, see Transform OpenID Connect ID Tokens Into SAML Assertions.

UmaFilter

This filter acts as a policy enforcement point, protecting access as a User-Managed Access (UMA) resource server. Specifically, this filter ensures that a request for protected resources includes a valid requesting party token with appropriate scopes before allowing the response to flow back to the requesting party.

UMA 2.0 is supported with AM 5.5 and later versions. UMA 1.0 is supported with AM 5.1 and later versions.

Usage

{
    "name": string,
    "type": "UmaFilter",
    "config": {
        "protectionApiHandler": Handler reference,
        "umaService": UmaService reference,
        "realm": string
    }
}

Properties

"protectionApiHandler": Handler reference, required: The handler to use when interacting with the UMA authorization server for token introspection and permission requests, such as a ClientHandler capable of making an HTTPS connection to the server.

For details, see Handlers.
"umaService": UmaService reference, required: The UmaService to use when protecting resources.

For details, see UmaService.
"realm": string, optional: The UMA realm set in the response to a request for a protected resource that does not include a requesting party token enabling access to the resource.

Default: uma

UriPathRewriteFilter

Rewrite a URL path, using a bidirectional mapping:

In the request flow, fromPath is mapped to toPath.
In the response flow, toPath is mapped to fromPath.

IG overwrites a response header only when all of the following conditions are true:

The response includes a header such as Location or Content-Location
The URI of the response header matches the mapping
The value of response header is a relative path or its scheme://host:port value matches the base URI.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "UriPathRewriteFilter",
  "config": {
    "mappings": configuration object,
    "failureHandler": Handler reference
  }
}

Properties

"mappings": configuration object, required

One or more bidirectional mappings between URL paths: For example mappings, request scenarios, and an example route, see Examples.

{
  "mappings": {
    "/fromPath1": "/toPath1",
    "/fromPath2": "/toPath2"
  }
}

Consider the following points when you define paths:

The incoming URL must start with the mapping path.
When more than one mapping applies to a URL, the most specific mapping is used.
Duplicate fromPath values are removed without warning.
Trailing slashes / are removed from path values.
If the response includes a Location or Content-Location header with a toPath in its URL, the response is rewritten with fromPath.

"failureHandler": handler reference, optional

Failure handler to be invoked if an invalid URL is produced when the request path is mapped or when the response Location or Content-Location header URI path is reverse-mapped.

Provide an inline handler declaration, or the name of a handler object defined in the heap. See also Handlers.

Default: HTTP 500

Examples

Example route

The example route changes a request URL as follows:

The baseURI overrides the scheme, host, and port of a request URL.
The UriPathRewriteFilter remaps the path of a request URL.

Requests to http://openig.example.com:8080/mylogin are mapped to http://app.example.com:8081/login.

Requests to http://openig.example.com:8080/welcome are mapped to http://app.example.com:8081/home.

Requests to http://openig.example.com:8080/other are mapped to http://app.example.com:8081/not-found, and result in an HTTP 404.

Requests to http://openig.example.com:8080/badurl are mapped to the invalid URL http://app.example.com:8081[, and invoke the failure handler.

UserProfileFilter

Queries AM to retrieve the profile attributes of an user identified by their username.

Only profile attributes that are enabled in AM can be returned by the query. The roles field is not returned.

The data is made available to downstream IG filters and handlers, in the context UserProfileContext.

Supported with AM 5 and later versions.

Usage

{
  "name": string,
  "type": "UserProfileFilter",
  "config": {
    "username": configuration expression<string>,
    "userProfileService": UserProfileService reference
  }
}

Properties

"username": configuration expression<string>, required

The username of an AM subject. This filter retrieves profile attributes for the subject.

"userProfileService": UserProfileService reference, required

The service to retrieve profile attributes from AM, for the subject identified by username.

"userProfileService": {
  "type": "UserProfileService",
  "config": {
    "amService": AmService reference,
    "cache": object,
    "profileAttributes": array of runtime expression<string>,
    "realm": configuration expression<string>
  }
}

"amService": AmService reference, required: The AmService heap object to use for the following properties:

agent, the credentials of the IG agent in AM. When the agent is authenticated, the token can be used for tasks such as getting the user’s profile, making policy evaluations, and connecting to the AM notification endpoint.

url: URL of the AM server where the user is authenticated.
amHandler: Handler to use when communicating with AM to fetch the requested user’s profile.

realm: Realm of the IG agent in AM.

version: The version of the AM server.

cache: object, optional

Caching of AM user profiles, based on Caffeine. For more information, see the GitHub entry, Caffeine.

When caching is enabled, IG can reuse cached profile attributes without repeatedly querying AM. When caching is disabled, IG must query AM for each request, to retrieve the required user profile attributes.

Default: No cache.

enabled: boolean, optional: Enable or disable caching of user profiles. When false, the cache is disabled but the cache configuration is maintained.

Default: true when cache is configured
executor: executor, optional: An executor service to schedule the execution of tasks, such as the eviction of entries in the cache.

Default: ForkJoinPool.commonPool()
"maximumSize": configuration expression<number>, optional: The maximum number of entries the cache can contain.

Default: Unlimited/unbound
maximumTimeToCache: duration, required: The maximum duration for which to cache user profiles.

The duration cannot be zero.

profileAttributes: array of runtime expression<string>, optional

List of one or more fields to return and store in UserProfileContext.

Field names are defined by the underlying repository in AM. When AM is installed with the default configuration, the repository is ForgeRock Directory Services.

The following convenience accessors are provided for commonly used fields:

cn: Retrieved through ${contexts.userProfile.commonName}
dn: Retrieved through ${contexts.userProfile.distinguishedName}
realm: Retrieved through ${contexts.userProfile.realm}
username: Retrieved through ${contexts.userProfile.username}

All other available fields can be retrieved through ${contexts.userProfile.rawInfo} and ${contexts.userProfile.asJsonValue()}.

When profileAttributes is configured, the specified fields and the following fields are returned: username, _id, and _rev.

Default: All available fields are returned.

"realm": configuration expression<string>, optional

The AM realm where the subject is authenticated.

Default: The realm declared for amService.
