4.5. Sample WS-Security Configurations


JBoss Fuse provides the policy-security-wss-username quickstart application as an example. The following are the pertinent sections:
  • META-INF/WorkService.wsdl:
    <binding name="WorkServiceBinding" type="tns:WorkService">
      <wsp:PolicyReference URI="#WorkServicePolicy"/>
      ...
    </binding>
    <wsp:Policy wsu:Id="WorkServicePolicy">
      <wsp:ExactlyOne>
        <wsp:All>
          <sp:SupportingTokens xmlns:sp="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-securitypolicy/200702">
            <wsp:Policy>
              <sp:UsernameToken sp:IncludeToken="http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-securitypolicy/200702/IncludeToken/AlwaysToRecipient">
                <wsp:Policy>
                  <sp:WssUsernameToken10/>
                </wsp:Policy>
              </sp:UsernameToken>
            </wsp:Policy>
          </sp:SupportingTokens>
        </wsp:All>
      </wsp:ExactlyOne>
    </wsp:Policy>
  • META-INF/switchyard.xml:
    <binding.soap xmlns="urn:switchyard-component-soap:config:1.0">
      <wsdl>META-INF/WorkService.wsdl</wsdl>
      <contextPath>policy-security-wss-username</contextPath>
      <endpointConfig configFile="META-INF/jaxws-endpoint-config.xml" configName="SwitchYard-Endpoint-Config"/>
      <inInterceptors>
        <interceptor class="org.jboss.wsf.stack.cxf.security.authentication.SubjectCreatingPolicyInterceptor"/>
      </inInterceptors>
    </binding.soap>
  • META-INF/jaxws-endpoint-config.xml:
    <jaxws-config xmlns="urn:jboss:jbossws-jaxws-config:4.0" xmlns:javaee="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:jboss:jbossws-jaxws-config:4.0 schema/jbossws-jaxws-config_4_0.xsd">
      <endpoint-config>
        <config-name>SwitchYard-Endpoint-Config</config-name>
        <property>
            <property-name>ws-security.validate.token</property-name>
            <property-value>false</property-value>
        </property>
      </endpoint-config>
    </jaxws-config>
  • WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml:
    <jboss-web>
        <security-domain>java:/jaas/other</security-domain>
    </jboss-web>
With these in place, JBossWS-CXF intercepts incoming SOAP requests, extract the UsernameToken, attempt to authenticate it against the LoginModule(s) configured in the application server's "other" security domain, and provide any authorized roles. If successful, the request is handed over to SwitchYard, which processes it further, including enforcing your own policies. In the case of WS-Security, SwitchYard does not attempt a second clientAuthentication, but instead respects the outcome from JBossWS-CXF.
Note
If the original clientAuthentication fails, this is a "fail-fast" scenario, and the request is not channeled into SwitchYard.
