OpenID Connect Authentication

The OpenID Connect Authentication middleware secures your applications by delegating the authentication to an external provider (Google Accounts, LinkedIn, GitHub, etc.) and obtaining the end user's session claims and scopes for authorization purposes.

To authenticate the user, the middleware redirects through the authentication provider. Once the authentication is complete, users are redirected back to the middleware before being authorized to access the upstream application.

Encrypted Session Cookies

This middleware uses encrypted cookies to carry the session data.

OpenID Connect Authentication Diagram

Authentication Source

Before configuring an OpenID Connect Authentication middleware, an Authentication Source must be defined in the static configuration.

Below is an example of a minimal OpenID Connect Authentication Source that can be added to a static configuration:

authSources:
  oidcSource:
    oidc:
      issuer: https://issuer.com
      clientID: client-id
      clientSecret: client-secret
[authSources]
  [authSources.oidcSource]
    [authSources.oidcSource.oidc]
      issuer = "https://issuer.com"
      clientID = "client-id"
      clientSecret = "client-secret"

Authentication Source Options

issuer

Required, Default=""

The issuer is the URL to the OpenID Connect provider (e.g.: https://accounts.google.com). It should point to the server which provides the OpenID Connect configuration.

authSources:
  oidcSource:
    oidc:
      issuer: https://issuer.com
[authSources]
  [authSources.oidcSource]
    [authSources.oidcSource.oidc]
      issuer = "https://issuer.com"

clientID

Required, Default=""

The clientID is the unique client identifier for an account on the OpenID Connect provider.

authSources:
  oidcSource:
    oidc:
      clientID: client-id
[authSources]
  [authSources.oidcSource]
    [authSources.oidcSource.oidc]
      clientID = "client-id"

clientSecret

Required, Default=""

The clientSecret is the unique client secret for an account on the OpenID Connect provider.

authSources:
  oidcSource:
    oidc:
      clientSecret: client-secret
[authSources]
  [authSources.oidcSource]
    [authSources.oidcSource.oidc]
      clientSecret = "client-secret"

tls

Optional

Defines the TLS configuration used for the secure connection to the OpenID Connect provider.

A (possibly empty) TLS section is necessary to connect to a TLS endpoint.

caBundle

Optional, Default=""

An optional caBundle containing a PEM-encoded certificate bundle or a path to a file containing the certificate bundle used to establish a TLS connection with the OpenID Connect issuer.

Using a File

Note that TraefikEE does not watch for file changes. If caBundle is set to a file path, its content will be read once when the middleware is initialized.

Session Storage

An OpenID Connect Authentication middleware can use a persistent KV storage to store the HTTP sessions data, instead of keeping all the state in cookies. This, in order to avoid cookies growing inconveniently large, which could lead to e.g. latency issues.

When this mechanism is enabled, for a given session, only one entry (small entry) is stored in the cookie, where the value is a session ID (under the form of a UUID). That session ID is in turn used as the key for the KV entry.

Below is an example of a reference of all the possible options when configuring a consul KV storage.

Info

The options are all the same for the three other storage types (etcd, zookeeper, and redis), except for namespace, and token.

sessionStorages:

  consulStore:
    # the value has to match one of the possible
    # kv store types (consul, etcd, zookeeper, and redis).
    consul:
      keyPrefix: OIDC-sessions
      endpoints:
        - 'localhost:8500'

      username: foo
      password: bar
      token: baz
      namespace: production

      tls:
        caBundle: path/to/ca.crt
        insecureSkipVerify: false
[sessionStorages]

  # the value has to match one of the possible
  # kv store types (consul, etcd, zookeeper, and redis).
  [sessionStorages.consulStore.consul]
    keyPrefix = "OIDC-sessions"
    endpoints = ["localhost:8500"]
    username = "foo"
    password = "bar"
    token = "baz"
    namespace = "production"

    [sessionStorages.consulStore.consul.tls]
      caBundle = "path/to/ca.crt"
      insecureSkipVerify = false

Session Storage Options

Warning

In the examples below, storeType should be replaced by one of the possible store types: etcd, zookeeper, redis, consul.

OpenID Connect Authentication Middleware

After declaring an OpenID Connect Authentication Source in the static configuration of the cluster, OpenID Connect Authentication middleware can be added to routers in the dynamic configuration.

Middleware Options

source

Required, Default=""

The source option should contain the name of the Authentication Source used by the middleware.

    source = "oidcSource"

redirectUrl

Required, Default=""

The redirect URL is the URL used by the OpenID Connect provider to redirect back to the middleware once the authorization is complete. Simply put, the URL informs the OpenID Connect provider how to return to the middleware. For the request to reach the middleware, it must be allowed in the router rule. If the router rule is accepting all paths on a domain, no extra work is needed. If the router rule is specific about the paths allowed, the path set in this option should be included.

      rule = "Path(`/myapi`) || Path(`/login`) || Path(`/callback`)"

This URL will not be passed to the upstream application, but rather handled by the middleware itself. The chosen URL should therefore not conflict with any URLs needed by the upstream application.

This URL sometimes needs to be set in the OpenID Connect Provider's configuration as well (like for Google Accounts for example).

It can be the absolute URL, relative to the protocol (inherits the request protocol), or relative to the domain (inherits the request domain and protocol).

Request URL RedirectURL Result Description
http://expl.co /cback http://expl.co/cback The result inherits the protocol and domain from the request and uses the redirectURL's path
https://scur.co expl.co/cback https://expl.co/cback The result inherits the protocol from the request and uses the redirectURL's domain and path
https://scur.co http://expl.co/cback http://expl.co/cback The result replaces the request URL with the redirect URL since it is an absolute URL
Supported Schemes

Only http and https schemes are supported.

stateCookie.sameSite

Optional, Default="lax"

Inform browsers how they should handle the state cookie on cross-site requests. Setting it to lax or strict can provide some protection against cross-site request forgery attacks (CSRF).

Accepted values are the following:

  • none: The browser will send cookies with both cross-site requests and same-site requests.
  • strict: The browser will only send cookies for same-site requests (requests originating from the site that set the cookie). If the request originated from a different URL than the URL of the current location, none of the cookies tagged with the strict attribute will be included.
  • lax: Same-site cookies are withheld on cross-site subrequests, such as calls to load images or frames, but will be sent when a user navigates to the URL from an external site; for example, by following a link.

forwardHeaders

Optional, Default=None

The forwardHeaders option sets the HTTP headers to add to requests and populates them with values extracted from the ID Token claims returned by the authentication server.

Note

Claims to be forwarded that are not found in the JWT result in empty headers.

    claims = "Equals(`grp`, `admin`)"
Syntax

The following functions are supported in claims:

Function Description Example
Equals Validated the equality of the value in key with value. Equals(`grp`, `admin`)
Prefix Validates the value in key has the prefix of value. Prefix(`referrer`, `http://example.com`)
Contains (string) Validates the value in key contains value. Contains(`referrer`, `/foo/`)
Contains (array) Validates the key array contains the value. Contains(`areas`, `home`)
SplitContains Validates the value in key contains the value once split by the separator. SplitContains(`scope`, ` `, `writer`)
OneOf Validates the key array contains one of the values. OneOf(`areas`, `office`, `lab`)

All functions can be joined by boolean operands. The supported operands are:

Operand Description Example
&& Compares two functions and returns true only if both evaluate to true. Equals(`grp`, `admin`) && Equals(`active`, `true`)
|| Compares two functions and returns true if either evaluate to true. Equals(`grp`, `admin`) || Equals(`active`, `true`)
! Returns false if the function is true, otherwise returns true. !Equals(`grp`, `testers`)

All examples will return true for the following data structure:

{
  "active": true,
  "grp": "admin",
  "scope": "reader writer deploy",
  "referrer": "http://example.com/foo/bar",
  "areas": [
    "office",
    "home"
  ]
}
Nested claims

Nested claims are supported by using a . between keys. For example:

user.name
{
  "active": true,
  "grp": "admin",
  "scope": "reader writer deploy",
  "referrer": "http://example.com/foo/bar",
  "areas": [
    "office",
    "home"
  ],
  "user" {
    "name": "John Snow",
    "status": "undead"
  }
}
John Snow

Handling keys that contain a '.'

If the key contains a dot, the dot can be escaped using \.

Handling a key that contains a '\'

If the key contains a \, it needs to be doubled \\.
