PERTAIN_TOSolution

Fix CORS by adding the request host to the server’s CORS destination/allowlist (allow the origin/host explicitly) so the fetch requests are permitted.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

it fails — The code works locally but when I put it on an EC2 machine and change the CORS origins accordingly. Tension: I've checked the URL for 2 hours straight. Outcome: Still the same error below.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Protect FastAPI routes so that authenticated users without the required permissions/roles cannot access specific endpoints.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

there is an endpoint in the main service that needs to be secured not only by a valid JWT — in the main service. Tension: but also by the roles that the authenticated user has. Outcome: configure secured endpoints for each service?

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Considerations for CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) should be taken into account with Option 1 — Option 1 utilizes an absolute URL (https://example.com/project_folder/user) for making AJAX calls. Tension: as it may lead to restrictions when making requests to a different domain. Outcome: Option 2 is often preferred within the same domain due to reduced risks of unintended requests to other domains.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

You should also look into CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) and related security headers — requests made to the fastapi app can only be made by my co-workers. Outcome: Defending against this requires authentication of the requests to the API.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

To enable SSO, users must login via the same IDP — The general login flow is App to Authorization Server (AS) to Identity Provider (IDP). Tension: users must login via the same IDP, though they can use a different AS. Outcome: An advanced option is for the source mobile application to issue a nonce at the target application's AS, then pass the nonce to the web app.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

external user is calling group api using same external system once they raised pairing request on market place — All the external user will call these api using a external application. Tension: we need to validate external user is calling group api using same external system. Outcome: You need a `pairings` service, that can track the pairing state of users and groups.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

You need a `pairings` service, that can track the pairing state of users and groups. — When a user invokes pairing to a group. Tension: When your group APIs authorize user requests to group data. Outcome: that can track the pairing state of users and groups. Something like a database table with columns, `user_id` and `group_id`.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

A Windows authenticated user can access SQL Server databases without appearing in the Security folder/section

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Run xp_logininfo for the user account to list the AD group memberships and permission path with CONNECT SQL permission

PERTAIN_TORootCause

the styles file is redirected to http://localhost:8080/login — Spring Security blocks access to styles. Tension: I have access to the styles file. Outcome: comment out the spring security dependency in pom.xml.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the styles file is redirected to http://localhost:8080/login — I use bootstrap styles and styles written by me personally in the css file. Tension: some of the styles in my spring project stopped working. Outcome: the styles started working.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

You need to tell Spring Security to ignore resources under src/main/resources/static. — adding `http.authorizeRequests((requests) -> requests. .requestMatchers(PathRequest.toStaticResources().atCommonLocations()).permitAll()) ` to your security config. Tension: remove all the `"/static/...` references from your existing configuration. Outcome: adding `http.authorizeRequests((requests) -> requests. .requestMatchers(PathRequest.toStaticResources().atCommonLocations()).permitAll()) `.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

Spring Security has deprecated WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter in favor of component-based configuration (SecurityFilterChain beans) and has changed the recommended HttpSecurity request-matching/authorization DSL APIs.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

The tutorial’s Spring Security configuration extends the deprecated WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter, and the user also encounters deprecation/incorrect method usage for security DSL calls like authorizeHttpRequest/authorizeRequest, antMatchers, and requestMatchers.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Refactor the configuration to define a @Bean SecurityFilterChain (and relevant Authentication setup) instead of extending WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter, using the current HttpSecurity DSL such as authorizeHttpRequests with requestMatchers and anyRequest().authenticated(), plus formLogin/logout configuration.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

All routes except /login redirect back to /login

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Parameter 0 of method securityFilterChain required a bean of type 'org.springframework.security.' that could not be found — I am using spring boot microservice (spring boot version -3). Tension: Its on Gateway server.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

add `@EnableWebSecurity` annotation on your `SecurityConfig` class level — You will have something like this:. Tension: it is required because:. Outcome: `@EnableWebSecurity` is a marker annotation.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

the Internal service is by accident exposed to the outside world — The Internal service is on a network-level not exposed to the outside world. Tension: users could then make changes to the Internal service that should not be allowed.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

The most correct OAuth way to design this is to use scopes and claims. — access tokens and the user identity to flow between microservices. Tension: without security concerns. Outcome: The APIs also check for required scopes.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

jwtAuthFilter was triggered for /api/auth/login even with permitAll() and anyRequest().permitAll()

PERTAIN_TOSolution

jwtAuthFilter was triggered. — i sent a request by Post man on "localhost:8085/api/auth/login". Outcome: OncePerRequestFilter has shouldNotFilter method to avoid filtering for some requests.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Console.WriteLine(authorizationRuleCollection.Count); // Output: 0 — bool includeExplicit=false; bool includeInherited=false;. Tension: couldn't find any information regarding the scenario when both parameters are set to 'false'.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

we can look at the dotnet source code (links ahead). Tension: I couldn't find any information regarding the scenario when both parameters are set to 'false'.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

@PreAuthorize / @PostAuthorize checks cannot see Keycloak realm roles in realm_access

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Use an authentication/authorities converter to map realm_access.roles into Spring Security authorities

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Configure a custom MethodSecurityExpressionHandler with a custom expression root

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Now I need to add security to the server and client, and for now, using a username and password is fine. — with the asyncua examples, I created the example that I need for a real project. Tension: If someone knows what functions I need to use to create two users, one with admin privileges and the other with none, please let me know. Outcome: You have to create a class that implements get_user.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

You have to create a class that implements get_user — To use the manager in your code:. Tension: server = Server(user_manager=cert_user_manager). Outcome: user_manager = CustomUserManager().

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Passed — Emitting an AssertionFailed because in config.yaml we setted 0x10000 as sender. Tension: Maybe i just found a workaround to my issue. Outcome: Passed.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Emitting an AssertionFailed because in config.yaml we setted 0x10000 as sender — testMode: assertion. Tension: Maybe i just found a workaround to my issue. Outcome: sender: ["0x10000"].

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Can an Angular application be modularized by roles? Tension: you can modularize by roles: Student module, Partner module, Admin module with its own routing module.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

guards are used to manage access to that web page — students and partners can access the Class module, but if you're a PARTNER within the Class module, you can access some extra classes. Tension: You can modularize by roles: Student module, Partner module, Admin module with its own routing module. Outcome: only the specific module of that user that contains the components, services, pipes, and directives of that user would be downloaded from the server.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

we will use ngIf to control which URLs the user can access — the application will have a dashboard, and depending on whether the user is an admin, student, teacher, etc. Tension: This involves adding a guard to a component or a module configured as lazy load. Outcome: We will use directives or ngIf to control which elements of the dashboard are visible based on user roles.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

If Firestore security rules have multiple matches, then access is allowed if any of the conditions are true. — In the code you shared. Tension: these lines allow access to all of your documents.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

data which isn't meant to be read is still being read — I have set Firestore security rules to read data conditionally. Tension: despite the conditions. Outcome: The rest of the conditions do not matter. The user will be able to read and write all documents regardless of whether they meet your additional conditions.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

match /{document=**} { allow read, write: if true; — In the code you shared. Tension: So the rest of the conditions do not matter. Outcome: the user will be able to read and write all documents regardless of whether they meet your additional conditions.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Calling the account registration endpoint returns the error “An expected CSRF token cannot be found”. The request to `/api/auth/**` is not being matched by the security configuration meant to permit it.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Define the matcher inside `authorizeHttpRequests` (e.g., `http.authorizeHttpRequests(authz -> authz.requestMatchers("/api/auth/**").permitAll().anyRequest().authenticated())`) or otherwise ensure the effective `requestMatchers` configuration is correctly wired into the `SecurityFilterChain`.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

The client was pointed to the wrong localhost port, causing the request to hit a different server instance/configuration than intended (leading to CSRF expectations).

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Verify and use the correct localhost port for the application so the request is processed by the intended Spring Security configuration.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Package `sensio/framework-extra-bundle` is abandoned, you should avoid using it. — I use it in my Controller. Tension: What I have to use now to keep Secu rity ? Outcome: Use Symfony instead.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Application startup fails because Spring cannot find a required bean of type org.springframework.security.core.userdetails.UserDetailsService for the AuthenticationManager configuration.

PERTAIN_TORootCause

a conforming reader technically has access to the entire contents of the document — Once the document has been opened and decrypted successfully. Tension: There is nothing inherent in PDF encryption that enforces the document permissions specified in the encryption dictionary. Outcome: Conforming readers shall respect the intent of the document creator by restricting user access.

PERTAIN_TOProblem

Once the document has been opened and decrypted successfully — a conforming reader. Tension: There is nothing inherent in PDF encryption that enforces the document permissions specified in the encryption dictionary. Outcome: a conforming reader technically has access to the entire contents of the document.

PERTAIN_TOSolution

Conforming readers shall respect the intent of the document creator — according to the permissions contained in the file. Tension: There is nothing inherent in PDF encryption that enforces the document permissions specified in the encryption dictionary. Outcome: restricting user access to an encrypted PDF file according to the permissions contained in the file.
