CAS and Spring OIDC


Integration
Integrating CAS (Central Authentication Service) with Spring Security using OIDC
(OpenID Connect) and OAuth 2.0 involves setting up a secure authentication process
for your application. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you understand and
implement this integration:

Overview

1. CAS (Central Authentication Service): A single sign-on protocol for the web. It
allows users to access multiple applications while providing their credentials (such as
username and password) only once.

2. OIDC (OpenID Connect): An identity layer on top of OAuth 2.0, which allows
clients to verify the identity of the end-user based on the authentication performed
by an authorization server.

3. OAuth 2.0: A protocol for authorization that allows third-party services to


exchange user data without exposing user credentials.

Steps to Integrate CAS with Spring Security using OIDC and OAuth 2.0

1. Set Up CAS Server

- Install and Configure CAS Server: Ensure your CAS server is up and running.
You can download the CAS server from the official [Apereo CAS
website](https://apereo.github.io/cas/).

- Enable OIDC Support: Configure the CAS server to support OIDC. This involves
setting up the necessary endpoints and client configurations.

2. Configure Spring Boot Application


Generated by Sidekick / CAS and Spring OIDC Integration

- Add Dependencies: Include the necessary Spring Security and OAuth


dependencies in your `pom.xml` or `build.gradle` file.

```xml

<!-- Example for Maven -->

<dependency>

<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>

<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-oauth2-client</artifactId>

</dependency>

<dependency>

<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>

<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-security</artifactId>

</dependency>

```

3. Application Properties

- Configure application.properties or application.yml to include the CAS


server details and OIDC settings.

```yaml

spring:

security:

oauth2:

client:

registration:

cas:

client-id: your-client-id

client-secret: your-client-secret
Generated by Sidekick / CAS and Spring OIDC Integration

scope: openid, profile, email

redirect-uri: "{baseUrl}/login/oauth2/code/{registrationId}"

authorization-grant-type: authorization_code

client-name: CAS

provider:

cas:

authorization-uri: https://your-cas-server/cas/oauth2.0/authorize

token-uri: https://your-cas-server/cas/oauth2.0/token

user-info-uri: https://your-cas-server/cas/oauth2.0/profile

user-name-attribute: id

```

4. Security Configuration

- Extend WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter: Create a security configuration class


to handle authentication.

```java

import org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.builders.HttpSecurity;

import
org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.EnableWebSecurit
y;

import
org.springframework.security.config.annotation.web.configuration.WebSecurityConfig
urerAdapter;

@EnableWebSecurity

public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

@Override
Generated by Sidekick / CAS and Spring OIDC Integration

protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {

http

.authorizeRequests()

.antMatchers("/", "/login").permitAll()

.anyRequest().authenticated()

.and()

.oauth2Login();

```

5. Testing

- Run Your Application: Start your Spring Boot application and navigate to the
login page. You should be redirected to the CAS login page.

- Authenticate: Enter your credentials. Upon successful authentication, you


should be redirected back to your application.

Conclusion

This setup allows your Spring Boot application to authenticate users via CAS using
OIDC and OAuth 2.0. Ensure your CAS server is properly configured for OIDC and that
your application properties are correctly set.
