Chapter 4. Security for Cluster Traffic


4.1. Node Authentication and Authorization (Remote Client-Server Mode)

Security can be enabled at node level via SASL protocol, which enables node authentication against a security realm. This requires nodes to authenticate each other when joining or merging with a cluster. For detailed information about security realms, see Section 2.6.1, “About Security Realms”.
The following example depicts the <sasl /> element, which leverages the SASL protocol. Both DIGEST-MD5 or GSSAPI mechanisms are currently supported.

Example 4.1. Configure SASL Authentication

<management>
    <security-realms>
        <!-- Additional configuration information here -->
        <security-realm name="ClusterRealm">
            <authentication>
                <properties path="cluster-users.properties" relative-to="jboss.server.config.dir"/>
                </authentication>
                <authorization>
                    <properties path="cluster-roles.properties" relative-to="jboss.server.config.dir"/>
                </authorization>
            </security-realm>
        </security-realms>
        <!-- Additional configuration information here -->
    </security-realms>
</management>

<stack name="udp">
    <!-- Additional configuration information here -->
    <sasl mech="DIGEST-MD5" security-realm="ClusterRealm" cluster-role="cluster">
        <property name="client_name">node1</property>
        <property name="client_password">password</property>
    </sasl>
    <!-- Additional configuration information here -->
</stack>

In the provided example, the nodes use the DIGEST-MD5 mechanism to authenticate against the ClusterRealm. In order to join, nodes must have the cluster role.
The cluster-role attribute determines the role all nodes must belong to in the security realm in order to JOIN or MERGE with the cluster. Unless it has been specified, the cluster-role attribute is the name of the clustered <cache-container> by default. Each node identifies itself using the client-name property. If none is specified, the hostname on which the server is running will be used.
This name can also be overridden by specifying the jboss.node.name system property that can be overridden on the command line. For example:
$ clustered.sh -Djboss.node.name=node001

Note

JGroups AUTH protocol is not integrated with security realms, and its use is not advocated for Red Hat JBoss Data Grid.

4.1.1. Configure Node Authentication for Cluster Security (DIGEST-MD5)

The following example demonstrates how to use DIGEST-MD5 with a properties-based security realm, with a dedicated realm for cluster node.

Example 4.2. Using the DIGEST-MD5 Mechanism

<management>
         <security-realms>
             <security-realm name="ClusterRealm">
                 <authentication>
                     <properties path="cluster-users.properties" relative-to="jboss.server.config.dir"/>
                 </authentication>
                 <authorization>
                     <properties path="cluster-roles.properties" relative-to="jboss.server.config.dir"/>
                 </authorization>
             </security-realm>
         </security-realms>
</management>
<subsystem xmlns="urn:infinispa:server:jgroups:6.1" default-stack="${jboss.default.jgroups.stack:udp}">
     <stack name="udp">
         <transport type="UDP" socket-binding="jgroups-udp"/>
         <protocol type="PING"/>
         <protocol type="MERGE2"/>
         <protocol type="FD_SOCK" socket-binding="jgroups-udp-fd"/>
         <protocol type="FD_ALL"/>
         <protocol type="pbcast.NAKACK"/>
         <protocol type="UNICAST2"/>
         <protocol type="pbcast.STABLE"/>
         <protocol type="pbcast.GMS"/>
         <protocol type="UFC"/>
         <protocol type="MFC"/>
         <protocol type="FRAG2"/>
         <protocol type="RSVP"/>
         <sasl security-realm="ClusterRealm" mech="DIGEST-MD5">
             <property name="client_password>...</property>
         </sasl>
     </stack>
</subsystem>
<subsystem xmlns="urn:infinispan:server:core:6.1" default-cache-container="clustered">
     <cache-container name="clustered" default-cache="default">
         <transport executor="infinispan-transport" lock-timeout="60000" stack="udp"/>
         <!-- various clustered cache definitions here -->
     </cache-container>
</subsystem>

In the provided example, supposing the hostnames of the various nodes are node001, node002, node003, the cluster-users.properties will contain:
  • node001=/<node001passwordhash>/
  • node002=/<node002passwordhash>/
  • node003=/<node003passwordhash>/
The cluster-roles.properties will contain:
  • node001=clustered
  • node002=clustered
  • node003=clustered
To generate these values, the following add-users.sh script can be used:
$ add-user.sh -up cluster-users.properties -gp cluster-roles.properties -r ClusterRealm -u node001 -g clustered -p <password>

The MD5 password hash of the node must also be placed in the "client_password" property of the <sasl/> element.
<property name="client_password>...</property>

Note

To increase security, it is recommended that this password be stored using a Vault. For more information about vault expressions, see the Red Hat Enterprise Application Platform Security Guide
Once node security has been set up as discussed here, the cluster coordinator will validate each JOINing and MERGEing node's credentials against the realm before letting the node become part of the cluster view.

4.1.2. Configure Node Authentication for Cluster Security (GSSAPI/Kerberos)

When using the GSSAPI mechanism, the client_name is used as the name of a Kerberos-enabled login module defined within the security domain subsystem. For a full procedure on how to do this, see Section 2.6.7.1, “Configure Hot Rod Authentication (GSSAPI/Kerberos)”.

Example 4.3. Using the Kerberos Login Module

<security-domain name="krb-node0" cache-type="default">
    <authentication>
        <login-module code="Kerberos" flag="required">
            <module-option name="storeKey" value="true"/>
            <module-option name="useKeyTab" value="true"/>
            <module-option name="refreshKrb5Config" value="true"/>
            <module-option name="principal" value="jgroups/node0/clustered@INFINISPAN.ORG"/>
            <module-option name="keyTab" value="${jboss.server.config.dir}/keytabs/jgroups_node0_clustered.keytab"/>
            <module-option name="doNotPrompt" value="true"/>
        </login-module>
    </authentication>
</security-domain>

The following property must be set in the <sasl/> element to reference it:
<sasl <!-- Additional configuration information here --> >
     <property name="login_module_name">
     		<!-- Additional configuration information here -->
     </property>
</sasl>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
As a result, the authentication section of the security realm is ignored, as the nodes will be validated against the Kerberos Domain Controller. The authorization configuration is still required, as the node principal must belong to the required cluster-role.
In all cases, it is recommended that a shared authorization database, such as LDAP, be used to validate node membership in order to simplify administration.
By default, the principal of the joining node must be in the following format:
jgroups/$NODE_NAME/$CACHE_CONTAINER_NAME@REALM
