Quarkus - Using OpenID Connect to Protect Web Applications using Authorization Code Flow.
This guide demonstrates how to use Quarkus OpenID Connect Extension to protect your Quarkus HTTP endpoints using OpenId Connect Authorization Code Flow supported by OpenId Connect compliant Authorization Servers such as Keycloak.
The extension allows to easily authenticate the users of your web application by redirecting them to the OpenID Connect Provider (e.g.: Keycloak) to login and, once the authentication is complete, return them back with the code confirming the successful authentication. The extension will request ID and access tokens from the OpenID Connect Provider using an authorization code grant and verify these tokens in order to authorize an access to the application.
Please read the Using OpenID Connect to Protect Service Applications guide if you need to protect your applications using Bearer Token Authorization.
Please read the Using OpenID Connect Multi-Tenancy guide how to support multiple tenants.
Prerequisites
To complete this guide, you need:
-
less than 15 minutes
-
an IDE
-
JDK 1.8+ installed with
JAVA_HOMEconfigured appropriately -
Apache Maven 3.6.2+
-
Docker
Architecture
In this example, we build a very simple web application with a single page:
-
/index.html
This page is protected and can only be accessed by authenticated users.
Solution
We recommend that you follow the instructions in the next sections and create the application step by step. However, you can go right to the completed example.
Clone the Git repository: git clone https://github.com/quarkusio/quarkus-quickstarts.git, or download an archive.
The solution is located in the security-openid-connect-web-authentication-quickstart directory.
Creating the Maven Project
First, we need a new project. Create a new project with the following command:
mvn io.quarkus:quarkus-maven-plugin:1.12.0.Final:create \
-DprojectGroupId=org.acme \
-DprojectArtifactId=security-openid-connect-web-authentication-quickstart \
-Dextensions="resteasy,oidc" \
-DnoExamples
cd security-openid-connect-web-authentication-quickstartIf you already have your Quarkus project configured, you can add the oidc extension
to your project by running the following command in your project base directory:
./mvnw quarkus:add-extension -Dextensions="oidc"This will add the following to your pom.xml:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkus</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-oidc</artifactId>
</dependency>Writing the application
Let’s write a simple JAX-RS resource which has all the tokens returned in the authorization code grant response injected:
package org.acme.security.openid.connect.web.authentication;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt.JsonWebToken;
import io.quarkus.oidc.IdToken;
import io.quarkus.oidc.RefreshToken;
@Path("/tokens")
public class TokenResource {
/**
* Injection point for the ID Token issued by the OpenID Connect Provider
*/
@Inject
@IdToken
JsonWebToken idToken;
/**
* Injection point for the Access Token issued by the OpenID Connect Provider
*/
@Inject
JsonWebToken accessToken;
/**
* Injection point for the Refresh Token issued by the OpenID Connect Provider
*/
@Inject
RefreshToken refreshToken;
/**
* Returns the tokens available to the application. This endpoint exists only for demonstration purposes, you should not
* expose these tokens in a real application.
*
* @return a map containing the tokens available to the application
*/
@GET
public String getTokens() {
StringBuilder response = new StringBuilder().append("<html>")
.append("<body>")
.append("<ul>");
Object userName = this.idToken.getClaim("preferred_username");
if (userName != null) {
response.append("<li>username: ").append(userName.toString()).append("</li>");
}
Object scopes = this.accessToken.getClaim("scope");
if (scopes != null) {
response.append("<li>scopes: ").append(scopes.toString()).append("</li>");
}
response.append("<li>refresh_token: ").append(refreshToken.getToken() != null).append("</li>");
return response.append("</ul>").append("</body>").append("</html>").toString();
}
}This endpoint has ID, access and refresh tokens injected. It returns a preferred_username claim from the ID token, a scope claim from the access token and also a refresh token availability status.
Note that you do not have to inject the tokens - it is only required if the endpoint needs to use the ID token to interact with the currently authenticated user or use the access token to access a downstream service on behalf of this user.
Please see Access ID and Access Tokens section below for more information.
Configuring the application
The OpenID Connect extension allows you to define the configuration using the application.properties file which should be located at the src/main/resources directory.
Configuring using the application.properties file
quarkus.oidc.auth-server-url=http://localhost:8180/auth/realms/quarkus
quarkus.oidc.client-id=frontend
quarkus.oidc.application-type=web-app
quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated.paths=/*
quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated.policy=authenticatedThis is the simplest configuration you can have when enabling authentication to your application.
The quarkus.oidc.client-id property references the client_id issued by the OpenID Connect Provider and, in this case, the application is a public client (no client secret is defined).
The quarkus.oidc.application-type property is set to web-app in order to tell Quarkus that you want to enable the OpenID Connect Authorization Code Flow, so that your users are redirected to the OpenID Connect Provider to authenticate.
For last, the quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated permission is set to tell Quarkus about the paths you want to protect. In this case,
all paths are being protected by a policy that ensures that only authenticated users are allowed to access. For more details check Security Authorization Guide.
Configuring CORS
If you plan to consume this application from another application running on a different domain, you will need to configure CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing). Please read the HTTP CORS documentation for more details.
Starting and Configuring the Keycloak Server
To start a Keycloak Server you can use Docker and just run the following command:
docker run --name keycloak -e KEYCLOAK_USER=admin -e KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=admin -p 8180:8080 {keycloak-docker-image}You should be able to access your Keycloak Server at localhost:8180/auth.
Log in as the admin user to access the Keycloak Administration Console. Username should be admin and password admin.
Import the realm configuration file to create a new realm. For more details, see the Keycloak documentation about how to create a new realm.
Running and Using the Application
Running in Developer Mode
To run the microservice in dev mode, use ./mvnw clean compile quarkus:dev.
Running in JVM Mode
When you’re done playing with "dev-mode" you can run it as a standard Java application.
First compile it:
./mvnw packageThen run it:
java -jar target/quarkus-app/quarkus-run.jarRunning in Native Mode
This same demo can be compiled into native code: no modifications required.
This implies that you no longer need to install a JVM on your production environment, as the runtime technology is included in the produced binary, and optimized to run with minimal resource overhead.
Compilation will take a bit longer, so this step is disabled by default;
let’s build again by enabling the native profile:
./mvnw package -PnativeAfter getting a cup of coffee, you’ll be able to run this binary directly:
./target/security-openid-connect-web-authentication-quickstart-runnerTesting the Application
To test the application, you should open your browser and access the following URL:
If everything is working as expected, you should be redirected to the Keycloak server to authenticate.
In order to authenticate to the application you should type the following credentials when at the Keycloak login page:
-
Username: alice
-
Password: alice
After clicking the Login button you should be redirected back to the application.
Redirection
When the user is redirected to the OpenID Connect Provider to authenticate, the redirect URL includes a redirect_uri query parameter which indicates to the Provider where the user has to be redirected to once the authentication has been completed.
Quarkus will set this parameter to the current request URL by default. For example, if the user is trying to access a Quarkus service endpoint at http://localhost:8080/service/1 then the redirect_uri parameter will be set to http://localhost:8080/service/1. Similarly, if the request URL is http://localhost:8080/service/2 then the redirect_uri parameter will be set to http://localhost:8080/service/2, etc.
OpenID Connect Providers may be configured to require the redirect_uri parameter to have the same value (eg. http://localhost:8080/service/callback) for all the redirect URLs.
In such cases a quarkus.oidc.authentication.redirect-path property has to be set, for example, quarkus.oidc.authentication.redirect-path=/service/callback, and Quarkus will set the redirect_uri parameter to an absolute URL such as http://localhost:8080/service/callback which will be the same regardless of the current request URL.
If quarkus.oidc.authentication.redirect-path is set but the original request URL has to be restored after the user has been redirected back to a callback URL such as http://localhost:8080/service/callback then a quarkus.oidc.authentication.restore-path-after-redirect property has to be set to true which will restore the request URL such as http://localhost:8080/service/1, etc.
Dealing with Cookies
The OIDC adapter uses cookies to keep the session, code flow and post logout state.
If you access the protected resources with overlapping or different roots, for example:
-
/index.htmland/web-app/service -
/web-app/service1and/web-app/service2 -
/web-app1/serviceand/web-app2/service
then most likely you also need to set a quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-path property to a path value that is common to all of them, such as / or /web-app, etc.
Otherwise the browser cache manager may keep request path specific cookies which in turn may lead to some difficult to diagnoze errors. For example, an authorization code flow may fail due to a missing state cookie if a user has initially accessed /index.html but configured a callback URI to /web-app/callback.
You can also set a quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-path-header property if the cookie path needs to be set dynamically.
For example, setting quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-path-header=X-Forwarded-Prefix means that the value of HTTP X-Forwarded-Prefix header will be used to set a cookie path.
If quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-path-header is set but no configured HTTP header is available in the current request then the quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-path will be checked.
If your application is deployed across multiple domains, make sure to set a quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-domain property for the session cookie be visible to all protected Quarkus services, for example, if you have 2 services deployed at:
then the quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-domain property must be set to company.net.
Logout
By default the logout is based on the expiration time of the ID Token issued by the OpenID Connect Provider. When the ID Token expires, the current user session at the Quarkus endpoint is invalidated and the user is redirected to the OpenID Connect Provider again to authenticate. If the session at the OpenID Connect Provider is still active, users are automatically re-authenticated without having to provide their credentials again.
The current user session may be automatically extended by enabling a quarkus.oidc.token.refresh-expired property. If it is set to true then when the current ID Token expires a Refresh Token Grant will be used to refresh ID Token as well as Access and Refresh Tokens.
User-Initiated Logout
Users can request a logout by sending a request to the Quarkus endpoint logout path set with a quarkus.oidc.logout.path property.
For example, if the endpoint address is https://application.com/webapp and the quarkus.oidc.logout.path is set to "/logout" then the logout request has to be sent to https://application.com/webapp/logout.
This logout request will start an RP-Initiated Logout and the user will be redirected to the OpenID Connect Provider to logout where a user may be asked to confirm the logout is indeed intended.
The user will be returned to the endpoint post logout page once the logout has been completed if the quarkus.oidc.logout.post-logout-path property is set. For example, if the endpoint address is https://application.com/webapp and the quarkus.oidc.logout.post-logout-path is set to "/signin" then the user will be returned to https://application.com/webapp/signin (note this URI must be registered as a valid post_logout_redirect_uri in the OpenID Connect Provider).
If the quarkus.oidc.logout.post-logout-path is set then a q_post_logout cookie will be created and a matching state query parameter will be added to the logout redirect URI and the OpenID Connect Provider will return this state once the logout has been completed. It is recommended for the Quarkus web-app applications to check that a state query parameter matches the value of the q_post_logout cookie which can be done for example in a JAX-RS filter.
Note that a cookie name will vary when using OpenID Connect Multi-Tenancy. For example, it will be named q_post_logout_tenant_1 for a tenant with a tenant_1 id, etc.
Here is an example of how to configure an RP initiated logout flow:
quarkus.oidc.auth-server-url=http://localhost:8180/auth/realms/quarkus
quarkus.oidc.client-id=frontend
quarkus.oidc.application-type=web-app
quarkus.oidc.tenant-logout.logout.path=/logout
quarkus.oidc.tenant-logout.logout.post-logout-path=/postlogout
# Only the authenticated users can initiate a logout:
quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated.paths=/logout
quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated.policy=authenticated
# Logged out users should be returned to the /welcome.html site which will offer an option to re-login:
quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated.paths=/welcome.html
quarkus.http.auth.permission.authenticated.policy=permitYou may also need to set quarkus.oidc.authentication.cookie-path to a path value common to all of the application resources which is / in this example.
See Dealing with Cookies for more information.
Accessing ID and Access Tokens
OIDC Code Authentication Mechanism acquires three tokens during the authorization code flow: IDToken, Access Token and Refresh Token.
ID Token is always a JWT token and is used to represent a user authentication with the JWT claims.
One can access ID Token claims by injecting JsonWebToken with an IdToken qualifier:
import javax.inject.Inject;
import org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt.JsonWebToken;
import io.quarkus.oidc.IdToken;
import io.quarkus.security.Authenticated;
@Path("/web-app")
@Authenticated
public class ProtectedResource {
@Inject
@IdToken
JsonWebToken idToken;
@GET
public String getUserName() {
return idToken.getName();
}
}Access Token is usually used by the OIDC web-app application to access other endpoints on behalf of the currently logged in user. The raw access token can be accessed as follows:
import javax.inject.Inject;
import org.eclipse.microprofile.jwt.JsonWebToken;
import io.quarkus.oidc.AccessTokenCredential;
import io.quarkus.security.Authenticated;
@Path("/web-app")
@Authenticated
public class ProtectedResource {
@Inject
JsonWebToken accessToken;
// or
// @Inject
// AccessTokenCredential accessTokenCredential;
@GET
public String getReservationOnBehalfOfUser() {
String rawAccessToken = accessToken.getRawToken();
//or
//String rawAccessToken = accessTokenCredential.getToken();
// Use the raw access token to access a remote endpoint
return getReservationfromRemoteEndpoint(rawAccesstoken);
}
}Note that AccessTokenCredential will have to be used if the Access Token issued to the Quarkus web-app application is opaque (binary) and can not be parsed to JsonWebToken.
Injection of the JsonWebToken and AccessTokenCredential is supported in both @RequestScoped and @ApplicationScoped contexts.
RefreshToken is only used to refresh the current ID and access tokens as part of its session management process.
User Info
If IdToken does not provide enough information about the currently authenticated user then you can set a quarkus.oidc.user-info-required=true property for a UserInfo JSON object from the OIDC userinfo endpoint to be requested.
A request will be sent to the OpenId Provider UserInfo endpoint using the access token returned with the authorization code grant response and an io.quarkus.oidc.UserInfo (a simple javax.json.JsonObject wrapper) object will be created. io.quarkus.oidc.UserInfo can be either injected or accessed as a SecurityIdentity userinfo attribute.
Token Claims And SecurityIdentity Roles
The way the roles are mapped to the SecurityIdentity roles from the verified tokens is identical to how it is done for the bearer tokens with the only difference being is that ID Token is used as a source of the roles by default.
Note if you use Keycloak then you should set a Microprofile JWT client scope for ID token to contain a groups claim, please see the Keycloak Server Administration Guide for more information.
If only the access token contains the roles and this access token is not meant to be propagated to the downstream endpoints then set quarkus.oidc.roles.source=accesstoken.
If UserInfo is the source of the roles then set quarkus.oidc.authentication.user-info-required=true and quarkus.oidc.roles.source=userinfo, and if needed, quarkus.oidc.roles.role-claim-path.
Additionally a custom SecurityIdentityAugmentor can also be used to add the roles as documented here.
Session Management
If you have a Single Page Application for Service Applications where your OpenId Connect Provider script such as keycloak.js is managing an authoriization code flow then that script will also control the SPA authentication session lifespan.
If your work with a Quarkus OIDC web-app application then it is Quarkus OIDC Code Authentication mechanism which is managing the user session lifespan.
The session age is calculated by adding the lifespan value of the current IDToken and the values of the quarkus.oidc.authentication.session-age-extension and quarkus.oidc.token.lifespan-grace properties. Of the last two properties only quarkus.oidc.authentication.session-age-extension should be used to significantly extend the session lifespan if required since quarkus.oidc.token.lifespan-grace is only meant for taking some small clock skews into consideration.
When the currently authenticated user returns to the protected Quarkus endpoint and the ID token associated with the session cookie has expired then, by default, the user will be auto-redirected to the OIDC Authorization endpoint to re-authenticate. Most likely the OIDC provider will challenge the user again though not necessarily if the session between the user and this OIDC provider is still active which may happen if it is configured to last longer than the ID token.
If the quarkus.oidc.token.refresh-expired then the expired ID token (as well as the access token) will be refreshed using the refresh token returned with the authorization code grant response. This refresh token may also be recycled (refreshed) itself as part of this process. As a result the new session cookie will be created and the session will be extended.
Note, quarkus.oidc.authentication.session-age-extension can be important when dealing with expired ID tokens, when the user is not very active. In such cases, if the ID token expires, then the session cookie may not be returned back to the Quarkus endpoint during the next user request and Quarkus will assume it is the first authentication request. Therefore using quarkus.oidc.authentication.session-age-extension is important if you need to have even the expired ID tokens refreshed.
You can also complement refreshing the expired ID tokens by proactively refreshing the valid ID tokens which are about to be expired within the quarkus.oidc.token.auto-refresh-interval value. If, during the current user request, it is calculated that the current ID token will expire within this quarkus.oidc.token.auto-refresh-interval then it will be refreshed and the new session cookie will be created. This property should be set to a value which is less than the ID token lifespan; the closer it is to this lifespan value the more often the ID token will be refreshed.
You can have this process further optimized by having a simple JavaScript function periodically emulating the user activity by pinging your Quarkus endpoint thus minimizing the window during which the user may have to be re-authenticated.
Note this user session can not be extended forever - the returning user with the expired ID token will have to re-authenticate at the OIDC provider endpoint once the refresh token has expired.
TokenStateManager
OIDC CodeAuthenticationMechanism is using the default `io.quarkus.oidc.TokenStateManager' interface implementation to keep the ID, access and refresh tokens returned in the authorization code or refresh grant responses in a session cookie. It makes Quarkus OIDC endpoints completely stateless.
Note that some endpoints do not require the access token. An access token is only required if the endpoint needs to retrieve UserInfo or access the downstream service with this access token or use the roles associated with the access token (the roles in the ID token are checked by default). In such cases you can set either quarkus.oidc.state-session-manager.strategy=id-refresh-token (keep ID and refresh tokens only) or quarkus.oidc.state-session-manager.strategy=id-token (keep ID token only).
If the ID, access and refresh tokens are JWT tokens then combining all of them (if the strategy is the default keep-all-tokens) or only ID and refresh tokens (if the strategy is id-refresh-token) may produce a session cookie value larger than 4KB and the browsers may not be able to keep this cookie.
In such cases, you can use quarkus.oidc.token-state-manager.split-tokens=true to have a unique session token per each of these tokens.
Register your own io.quarkus.oidc.TokenStateManager' implementation as an `@ApplicationScoped CDI bean if you need to customize the way the tokens are associated with the session cookie. For example, you may want to keep the tokens in a database and have only a database pointer stored in a session cookie. Note though that it may present some challenges in making the tokens available across multiple microservices nodes.
Listening to important authentication events
One can register @ApplicationScoped bean which will observe important OIDC authentication events. The listener will be updated when a user has logged in for the first time or re-authenticated, as well as when the session has been refreshed. More events may be reported in the future. For example:
import javax.enterprise.context.ApplicationScoped;
import javax.enterprise.event.Observes;
import io.quarkus.oidc.IdTokenCredential;
import io.quarkus.oidc.SecurityEvent;
import io.quarkus.security.identity.AuthenticationRequestContext;
import io.vertx.ext.web.RoutingContext;
@ApplicationScoped
public class SecurityEventListener {
public void event(@Observes SecurityEvent event) {
String tenantId = event.getSecurityIdentity().getAttribute("tenant-id");
RoutingContext vertxContext = event.getSecurityIdentity().getCredential(IdTokenCredential.class).getRoutingContext();
vertxContext.put("listener-message", String.format("event:%s,tenantId:%s", event.getEventType().name(), tenantId));
}
}Single Page Applications
Please check if implementing SPAs the way it is suggested in the Single Page Applications for Service Applications section can meet your requirements.
If you prefer to use SPA and JavaScript API such as Fetch or XMLHttpRequest(XHR) with Quarkus web applications, please be aware that OpenID Connect Providers may not support CORS for Authorization endpoints where the users are authenticated after a redirect from Quarkus. This will lead to authentication failures if the Quarkus application and the OpenID Connect Provider are hosted on the different HTTP domains/ports.
In such cases, set the quarkus.oidc.authentication.java-script-auto-redirect property to false which will instruct Quarkus to return a 499 status code and WWW-Authenticate header with the OIDC value. The browser script also needs to be updated to set X-Requested-With header with the JavaScript value and reload the last requested page in case of 499, for example:
Future<void> callQuarkusService() async {
Map<String, String> headers = Map.fromEntries([MapEntry("X-Requested-With", "JavaScript")]);
await http
.get("https://localhost:443/serviceCall")
.then((response) {
if (response.statusCode == 499) {
window.location.assign("https://localhost.com:443/serviceCall");
}
});
}Running behind a reverse proxy
OIDC authentication mechanism can be affected if your Quarkus application is running behind a reverse proxy/gateway/firewall when HTTP Host header may be reset to the internal IP address, HTTPS connection may be terminated, etc. For example, an authorization code flow redirect_uri parameter may be set to the internal host instead of the expected external one.
In such cases configuring Quarkus to recognize the original headers forwarded by the proxy will be required, see Running behind a reverse proxy Vert.x documentation section for more information.
quarkus.oidc.authentication.force-redirect-https-scheme property may also be used when the Quarkus application is running behind a SSL terminating reverse proxy.
Cloud Services
Google Cloud
You can have Quarkus OIDC web-app applications access Google Cloud services such as BigQuery on behalf of the currently authenticated users who have enabled OpendId Connect (Authorization Code Flow) permissions to such services in their Google Developer Consoles.
It is super easy to do with Quarkiverse Google Cloud Services, only add the latest tag service dependency, for example:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.quarkiverse.googlecloudservices</groupId>
<artifactId>quarkus-google-cloud-bigquery</artifactId>
<version>${quarkiverse.googlecloudservices.version}</version>
</dependency>and configure Google OIDC properties:
quarkus.oidc.auth-server-url=https://accounts.google.com
quarkus.oidc.application-type=web-app
quarkus.oidc.client-id={GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID}
quarkus.oidc.credentials.secret={GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET}
quarkus.oidc.token.issuer=https://accounts.google.comToken Propagation
Please see Token Propagation section about the Authorization Code Flow access token propagation to the downstream services.

boolean |
|
Both ID and access tokens are fetched from the OIDC provider as part of the authorization code flow. ID token is always verified on every user request as the primary token which is used to represent the principal and extract the roles. Access token is not verified by default since it is meant to be propagated to the downstream services. The verification of the access token should be enabled if it is injected as a JWT token. Access tokens obtained as part of the code flow will always be verified if |
