Sequence of steps, certificate authentication

Hi everybody.
Please consder the following example:
R1---------------------CA-------------------------R2
Both R! and R2 have been issued certificates by CA in above example.
Let say R2 wants to authenticate itself to R1 therefore R2 sends its certificate to R1.
Two questions need to be answered.
1) R1 must be able to determine R2 is indeed R2 by varying R2 certificate.
2) R1 next must determine R2 is indeed allowed to talk to R1
1)Let focus on 1. What are the sequence of steps R1 take to determine R2 is indeed R2 by varying its certificate?
Let suppose R1 varifies R2 is indeed R2 by varyfing its certifcate. Next R1 must determine R2 is allowed to commuincate with R1.
2)How does R1 accomplish that ?
Thanks and have a great weekend.

Hi Raju,
Below are the steps you can explore.
1. Assign Classification to component if you are using any batch classification values for calculation of other components. This you can do it in BOM section of Master recipe.
2. Now goto calculation tab for the component of which quantity calculation is required.
3. In this screen you can see the characteristic assigned for calculation in batch classification as per step 1.
4. You can insert simple calculation formula using reference of these cells. The reference is simple like the references we have in excel. For example (001; 002) this given you value in 1st column & 2nd row.
5. At the time of batch determination or quantity change in Process order please make sure to click on Calculation tab & then save. This is required to get the quantity calculated as per formula.
Hope this will help you.
Please let us know the industry you are working in. This will help all to help you better.
Regards,

Client certificate authentication on ASA 5520

Hi,
We have configured certificate authentication for remote access IPSEC vpn and it is working fine. This is using the same internal Certificate Authority server for both the identity certificate of the ASA and the client certificates issued to remote clients.
We now wish to use a different CA which is a subordinate of the existing CA for client certificates - we want to keep the existing identity certificate using the root CA.
How do we ensure that the ASA will authenticate clients using certificates published by the old root CA and the new subordinate CA? What is the process to follow on the GUI to do this? Do I just add another CA certificate under the 'certificate management>CA certificates' window with a new ADSM trustpoint, or is there more steps?

Hi Paul,
I generate a PCKS#12 file that enclosed the client certificate + the associated private key + the CA certchain.
I deployed it on client host machine by juste sending it by e-mail/ USB key/ Web plushing.
Depending of your client OS version, the client certificate should be present in, the "login" store of keychain repository on a MAC OS-X client and in the "personal" store of the certificate repository on a Windows client.
And that it.

WCF service setup with certificate authentication error

I have a WCF service setup and I need to use a certificate with it and are getting numerous errors when I attempt to browse it. The 1st error I get is "Security settings for this service require 'Anonymous' Authentication but it is not enabled for
the IIS application that hosts this service."
This sounds like a straightforward error message and setting the authentication method in IIS to anonymous resolves being able to browse the service. But I need to use a certificate and setting authentication to anonymous is obviously not right since we
only want those with the proper certificate to access the service. I have all authentication methods in IIS set to disabled when I get the above error message. I have the SSL settings in IIS for the service set to require a certificate as well. I am using
IIS 8.5 as well.
Here is my config file in hoping someone could point me in the correct direction. The service should only work over HTTPS since we are using a certificate and I need the meta data exposed as well hence the mexHttpBinding. I have searched the web but no solution
is working. Any help is appreciated.

Hi spark29er,
>>The service should only work over HTTPS since we are using a certificate and I need the meta data exposed as well hence the mexHttpBinding.
For creating the HTTPS WCF service, first please change the mexHttpBinding to
mexHttpsBinding as following:
<endpoint contract="IMetadataExchange" binding="mexHttpsBinding" address="mex" />
For more information, please try to refer to:
#Seven simple steps to enable HTTPS on WCF WsHttp bindings:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36705/simple-steps-to-enable-HTTPS-on-WCF-WsHttp-bindi .
Then please try to check the following article about how to do the certificate authentication on HTTPS WCF Service:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/imayak/archive/2008/09/12/wcf-2-way-ssl-security-using-certificates.aspx .
Besides, setting the
includeExceptionDetailInFaults as false can give us more detailed error information.

Cisco ISE - EAP-TLS - Machine / User Authentication - Multiple Certificate Authentication Profiles (CAP)

Hello,
I'm trying to do machine and user authentication using EAP-TLS and digital certificates. Machines have certificates where the Principal Username is SAN:DNS, user certificates (smartcards) use SAN:Other Name as the Principal Username.
In ISE, I can define multiple Certificate Authentication Profiles (CAP). For example CAP1 (Machine) - SAN:DNS, CAP2 (User) - SAN:Other Name
Problem is how do you specify ISE to check both in the Authentication Policy? The Identity Store Sequence only accepts one CAP, so if I created an authentication policy for Dot1x to check CAP1 -> AD -> Internal, it will match the machine cert, but fail on user cert.
Any way to resolve this?
Thanks,
Steve

You need to use the AnyConnect NAM supplicant on your windows machines, and use the feature called eap-chaining for that, windows own supplicant won't work.
an example (uses user/pass though, but same concept)

6.1 SP 2 certificate authenticator fails with Apache plugin and SSL

Hi,
Does anybody have a certificate authenticator working in WebLogic 6.1
SP 2, in combination with the Apache HTTP Server plugin and SSL?
We implemented a certificate authenticator that works correctly in
WebLogic 6.1 SP 2 when we configure SSL with "Client Certificate
Required", and access it directly from a browser (the browser hits the
SSL port of the WebLogic server, like 7002).
This certificate authenticator also works correctly with a proxy web
server. We set up a Stronghold server (web server based on Apache) on
Linux with the Apache HTTP Server plugin from BEA, configured the
plugin to use SSL, and configured our WebLogic 6.1 SP 1 server without
"Client Certificate Required". The certificate authenticator gets the
end user's certificate correctly.
This same architecture with the proxy web server does not work when we
upgrade the WebLogic Server to SP 2. WebLogic Server logs the
"incorrect or missing client cert" error, our certificate
authenticator is never called, and the browser gets a 401 Unauthorized
error.
We looked all over the WebLogic 6.1 SP 2 installation for a newer
version of the plugin (mod_wl_ssl.so) and found the same version as SP
1. We double-checked that it was the Linux-specific installer
(because we'd found that some Linux libraries are missing from the
generic installer). So it appears to us that the plugin encodes the
certificate in the request header in such a way that a SP 1 server can
extract it, but an SP 2 server cannot. We were wondering whether
there might be changes to the plugin to stay in step with the SP 2
server that never got ported to Linux, or whether an updated Linux
plugin never got included in the installer packages.
So: has anybody gotten a system like
Apache/Stronghold + WebLogic Plugin <-- SSL --> WebLogic 6.1 SP 2 +
Cert Auth
to work?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Jim Doyle
[email protected]

A correction, I think:
Now that I rolled back a system to 6.1 SP 1, it looks like 6.1 SP 1
does include a different mod_wl_ssl.so from that in SP 2. I believe I
was comparing the wrong file. In fact, trying to compare versions of
the mod_wl_ssl.so makes things rather confusing:
A mod_wl_ssl.so from a straight weblogic610sp2_generic.zip install has
a cksum of "1853014778 1132467".
A mod_wl_ssl.so from a weblogic610sp1_generic.zip install with a
subsequent SP 2 upgrade install has a cksum of "1350917183 1147927".
A mod_wl_ssl.so from a plain 6.1 install with subsequent SP 1 and SP 2
upgrade installs, followed by an SP 2 uninstall and another SP 1
upgrade install, has a cksum of "1471948065 1136501".
I think I may be looking at three different plugin versions here: 6.1,
6.1 SP 1, and 6.1 SP 2, assuming the upgrade installs don't actually
change mod_wl_ssl.so. I'm not sure whether there's an easier way to
verify what version of the plugin you have.
In any case, we did try each plugin version, and none of them works
against a 6.1 SP 2 WebLogic server.

SSLVPN with iPhone Anyconnect and Cisco IOS Router, Certificate Authentication failed

Hello,
i have a problem regarding the authentication with a certificate from the iPhone Anyconnect 2.5 Client to a 1802 Cisco Router.
Cisco 1802 Router:
Cisco IOS Software, C180X Software (C180X-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 15.1(1)T, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
First i configured SSLVPN with username and password, in this configuration the Anyconnect Client of my iPhone works.
then i enrolled a certificate from my Windows 2008 R2 CA to the Router with the Attributes: Server Authentication and IPSEC
and i enrolled a certificate for my iPhone with Client Authentication and IPSEC
after a bunch of time ( i realy could not find a really good documentation on how to do this) i got it done, in the webvpn context configuration i made this changes here:
no aaa authentication list default
authentication certificate
ca trustpoint CA
as the "SSL VPN Configuration Guide, Cisco IOS Release 15.1M&T" says: if i want only certificate authentication i had to user the "authentication certificate" command and thats it.
as i look into the debugs it seems to me that the Router accepts the certificate of the iPhone, but then i receive a window on the iphone that wants an additional username and password authentication, and no matter what i enter there's always the same dialog coming back..
any ideas what the problem could be???
here is the configuration:

Issue with SharePoint foundation 2010 to use Claims Based Auth with Certificate authentication method with ADFS 2.0

I would love some help with this issue. I have configured my SharePoint foundation 2010 site to use Claims Based Auth with Certificate authentication method with ADFS 2.0 I have a test account set up with lab.acme.com to use the ACS.
When I log into my site using Windows Auth, everything is great. However when I log in and select my ACS token issuer, I get sent, to the logon page of the ADFS, after selected the ADFS method. My browser prompt me which Certificate identity I want
to use to log in and after 3-5 second
and return me the logon page with error message “Authentication failed”
I base my setup on the technet article
http://blogs.technet.com/b/speschka/archive/2010/07/30/configuring-sharepoint-2010-and-adfs-v2-end-to-end.aspx

This is perfectly correct on my case I was not adding the root properly you must add the CA and the ADFS as well, which is twice you can see below my results.

Project Server 2010 Web services access with Client Certificate Authentication

We switched our SharePoint/Project Server 2010 farm to use client certificate authentication with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) 2.0, which is working without issue. We have some administrative Project Server Interface (PSI)
web service applications that no longer connect to server with the new authentication configuration. Our custom applications are using the WCF interface to access the public web services.
Please let us know if it is possible to authenticate with AD FS 2.0 and then call
Project Server web services. Any help or coding examples would be greatly appreciated.

what is the error occurred when the custom PSI app connects?
can you upload the ULS logs here for research?
What is the user account format you specified in the code for authentication?
For proper authorization, the “user logon account” in PWA for the user needs to be changed from domain\username to the claims token (e.g.
'I:0#.w|mybusinessdomain\ewmccarty').
It requires you to manually call the UpnLogon method of
“Claims to Windows Token Service”. if (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity is ClaimsIdentity)
{ var identity = (ClaimsIdentity)Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity; }
if (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity is ClaimsIdentity)
var identity = (ClaimsIdentity)Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity;
Than you need to extract UPN-Claim from the identity.
Upload the verbose log if possible.
Did you see this?

Help required with ADFS 3.0 client certificate authentication

Hi,
I am currently working on integrating ADFS 3.o for Single Sign On to some 3rd party services along with PKI solution. The basic requirement is that I should be able to choose client authentication certificate as an authentication method in ADFS and then
federate user credentials to 3rd party trust for single-sign-on.
I had done this successfully with ADFS 2.0 and that setup is working fine. I have the setup as ADFS 3.0 client authentication method enabled. When I open browser to logon, the ADFS 3.0 page displays a message as "Select a certificate that you want to
use for authentication. If you cancel the operation, please close your browser and try again." but the certificates are not displayed for selection.
The certificates are valid and have valid chaining to CA. Could someone help me resolve this issue?
Thanks!
-Chinmaya Karve

Hi Yan,
Thanks for your response. I have gone through the posts that you have suggested, and my setup looks pretty much as expected.
So, as I mentioned earlier, I have 2 parallel setups with 3rd party service(SalesForce). Once of them is running ADFS 2.0 and another one has ADFS 3.0. I can logon to the third-party services, from both the setups using username/format. I can logon to SF
using client authentication certificate from ADFS 2.0 setup, but from the same client machine, when I try to logon SF via ADFS 3.0, the browser just does not pick up any certificate. The page just shows message of "Select a certificate that you want to use
for authentication. If you cancel the operation, please close your browser and try again.".
I have checked the browser, and it has the right certificates. Also, the same browser/machine is used to logon to SF through ADFS 2.0 via client certificate, which works just fine !
I am really confused now, as to whose issue this really is...
Just to confirm, I am using Certificate Authentication from ADFS 3.0 Authentication Methods for both Intranet and Extranet.
Any suggestion or inputs where I could have gone wrong in the setup?
Thanks!

SSL VPN with machine certificate authentication

Hi All,
I've configured a VPN profile for an Anyconnect VPN connection on my test environment. I've enabled AAA (RSA) and certificate authentication, configured the RSA servers correctly and uploaded the root and issuing certificates. I managed to get this working with machine certificates using a Microsoft PKI. With crypto debugging enabled I can see the CERT API thread wake up and correctly authenticate the certificate. So far so good....
Now I configured the same on our production environment and can't get it to work!! The anyconnect client shows an error: "certificate validation failure"
The strange thing is that the crypto debugging doesn't give me one single line of output. It looks like the certificate doesn't even reach the ASA. My question is, what is stopping the "CERT API thread" I mentioned before from waking up and validating the certificate?? Does someone have an explenation for that?
btw. We have other VPN configurations on the same production/live ASA's with certificate authentication the are working and show up in the debugging.
Thanks in advance for your help

Client certificate authentication with custom authorization for J2EE roles?

We have a Java application deployed on Sun Java Web Server 7.0u2 where we would like to secure it with client certificates, and a custom mapping of subject DNs onto J2EE roles (e.g., "visitor", "registered-user", "admin"). If we our web.xml includes:
<login-config>
 <auth-method>CLIENT-CERT</auth-method>
 <realm-name>certificate</realm-name>
<login-config>that will enforce that only users with valid client certs can access our app, but I don't see any hook for mapping different roles. Is there one? Can anyone point to documentation, or an example?
On the other hand, if we wanted to create a custom realm, the only documentation I have found is the sample JDBCRealm, which includes extending IASPasswordLoginModule. In our case, we wouldn't want to prompt for a password, we would want to examine the client certificate, so we would want to extend some base class higher up the hierarchy. I'm not sure whether I can provide any class that implements javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule, or whether the WebServer requires it to implement or extend something more specific. It would be ideal if there were an IASCertificateLoginModule that handled the certificate authentication, and allowed me to access the subject DN info from the certificate (e.g., thru a javax.security.auth.Subject) and cache group info to support a specialized IASRealm::getGroupNames(string user) method for authorization. In a case like that, I'm not sure whether the web.xml should be:
<login-config>
 <auth-method>CLIENT-CERT</auth-method>
 <realm-name>MyRealm</realm-name>
<login-config>or:
<login-config>
 <auth-method>MyRealm</auth-method>
<login-config>Anybody done anything like this before?
--Thanks

We have JDBCRealm.java and JDBCLoginModule.java in <ws-install-dir>/samples/java/webapps/security/jdbcrealm/src/samples/security/jdbcrealm. I think we need to tweak it to suite our needs :
$cat JDBCRealm.java
* JDBCRealm for supporting RDBMS authentication.
* This login module provides a sample implementation of a custom realm.
* You may use this sample as a template for creating alternate custom
* authentication realm implementations to suit your applications needs.
* In order to plug in a realm into the server you need to
* implement both a login module (see JDBCLoginModule for an example)
* which performs the authentication and a realm (as shown by this
* class) which is used to manage other realm operations.
* A custom realm should implement the following methods:
* <ul>
* <li>init(props)
* <li>getAuthType()
* <li>getGroupNames(username)
* </ul>
* IASRealm and other classes and fields referenced in the sample
* code should be treated as opaque undocumented interfaces.
final public class JDBCRealm extends IASRealm
 protected void init(Properties props)
 throws BadRealmException, NoSuchRealmException
 public java.util.Enumeration getGroupNames (String username)
 throws InvalidOperationException, NoSuchUserException
 public void setGroupNames(String username, String[] groups)
}and
$cat JDBCLoginModule.java
* JDBCRealm login module.
* This login module provides a sample implementation of a custom realm.
* You may use this sample as a template for creating alternate custom
* authentication realm implementations to suit your applications needs.
* In order to plug in a realm into the server you need to implement
* both a login module (as shown by this class) which performs the
* authentication and a realm (see JDBCRealm for an example) which is used
* to manage other realm operations.
* The PasswordLoginModule class is a JAAS LoginModule and must be
* extended by this class. PasswordLoginModule provides internal
* implementations for all the LoginModule methods (such as login(),
* commit()). This class should not override these methods.
* This class is only required to implement the authenticate() method as
* shown below. The following rules need to be followed in the implementation
* of this method:
* <ul>
* <li>Your code should obtain the user and password to authenticate from
* _username and _password fields, respectively.
* <li>The authenticate method must finish with this call:
* return commitAuthentication(_username, _password, _currentRealm,
* grpList);
* <li>The grpList parameter is a String[] which can optionally be
* populated to contain the list of groups this user belongs to
* </ul>
* The PasswordLoginModule, AuthenticationStatus and other classes and
* fields referenced in the sample code should be treated as opaque
* undocumented interfaces.
* Sample setting in server.xml for JDBCLoginModule
* <pre>
* <auth-realm name="jdbc" classname="samples.security.jdbcrealm.JDBCRealm">
* <property name="dbdrivername" value="com.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver"/>
* <property name="jaas-context" value="jdbcRealm"/>

You can try to extend "com/iplanet/ias/security/auth/realm/certificate/CertificateRealm.java"
[http://fisheye5.cenqua.com/browse/glassfish/appserv-core/src/java/com/sun/enterprise/security/auth/realm/certificate/CertificateRealm.java?r=SJSAS_9_0]
$cat CertificateRealm.java
package com.iplanet.ias.security.auth.realm.certificate;
* Realm wrapper for supporting certificate authentication.
* The certificate realm provides the security-service functionality
* needed to process a client-cert authentication. Since the SSL processing,
* and client certificate verification is done by NSS, no authentication
* is actually done by this realm. It only serves the purpose of being
* registered as the certificate handler realm and to service group
* membership requests during web container role checks.
* There is no JAAS LoginModule corresponding to the certificate
* realm. The purpose of a JAAS LoginModule is to implement the actual
* authentication processing, which for the case of this certificate
* realm is already done by the time execution gets to Java.
* The certificate realm needs the following properties in its
* configuration: None.
* The following optional attributes can also be specified:
* <ul>
* <li>assign-groups - A comma-separated list of group names which
* will be assigned to all users who present a cryptographically
* valid certificate. Since groups are otherwise not supported
* by the cert realm, this allows grouping cert users
* for convenience.
* </ul>
public class CertificateRealm extends IASRealm
 protected void init(Properties props)
 * Returns the name of all the groups that this user belongs to.
 * @param username Name of the user in this realm whose group listing
 * is needed.
 * @return Enumeration of group names (strings).
 * @exception InvalidOperationException thrown if the realm does not
 * support this operation - e.g. Certificate realm does not support
 * this operation.
 public Enumeration getGroupNames(String username)
 throws NoSuchUserException, InvalidOperationException
 * Complete authentication of certificate user.
 * As noted, the certificate realm does not do the actual
 * authentication (signature and cert chain validation) for
 * the user certificate, this is done earlier in NSS. This default
 * implementation does nothing. The call has been preserved from S1AS
 * as a placeholder for potential subclasses which may take some
 * action.
 * @param certs The array of certificates provided in the request.
 public void authenticate(X509Certificate certs[])
 throws LoginException
 // Set up SecurityContext, but that is not applicable to S1WS..

Client certificate authentication fails when the CA list sent by server is big and the list goes in 2 encrypted messages.

I checked with IE browser(on windows and MAC) and MAC safari packet capture. The CA certificate list is sent by server in 2 messages as the list is too big. I compared packet by packet exchanges in both the browsers. It is same till TLSv1 handshake is done for the ldap certificate authentication. It works fine in IE without any issues though the certificate list is divided into 2 messages.
In case of safari, after the TLSv1 handshake is done successfully, it again sends a SSLv3 'Client Hello' message and initiates the whole handshake process again and the server responds to it too till the handshake is complete. But it brakes after that with the server showing 'Cant establish secure connection' at the browser.
The issue occurs only in case of MAC safari for big list of CA certs >150(where it crosses the max limit) from server. It is not clear why safari alone is switching from TLSv1 to SSLv3 in this scenario.
NOTE: With shorter list of CA certs at server when it goes in one message, safari works fine and all messages are only TLSv1 and does not repeat the handshake process.
I have checked on safari version 5 and 6.0.3 on OS X mountain lion.
Is there any specific reason why MAC safari behaves like this or somethings needs to be done at server?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hope the above will help you.

SOAP -Client Certificate Authentication in Receiver SOAP Adapter

Dear All,
We are working on the below scenario
SAP R/3 System -> XI/PI -> Proxy -> Customer
In this, SAP R/3 System sends a IDOC and XI should give that XML Payload of IDOC to Customer.
Cusomer gave us the WSDL file and also a Certificate for authentication.
Mapping - we are using XSLT mapping to send that XML payload as we need to capture the whole XML payload of IDOC into 1 field at the target end ( This was given in the WSDL).
Now, how can we achieve this Client Certificate authentication in the SOAP Receiver Adapter when we have Proxy server in between PI/XI and Customer system.
Require your inputs on Client Certificate authentication and Proxy server configuration.
Regards,
Srini

Sequence of steps n Material quantity calculation functionality

Hi, Pls advise the sequence of steps involved in MQC functionality in Master Recipe? Thank You.

Hi Raju,
Below are the steps you can explore.
1. Assign Classification to component if you are using any batch classification values for calculation of other components. This you can do it in BOM section of Master recipe.
2. Now goto calculation tab for the component of which quantity calculation is required.
3. In this screen you can see the characteristic assigned for calculation in batch classification as per step 1.
4. You can insert simple calculation formula using reference of these cells. The reference is simple like the references we have in excel. For example (001; 002) this given you value in 1st column & 2nd row.
5. At the time of batch determination or quantity change in Process order please make sure to click on Calculation tab & then save. This is required to get the quantity calculated as per formula.
Hope this will help you.
Please let us know the industry you are working in. This will help all to help you better.
Regards,
