Hi Scott,
Thanks again, since we have hosted secure pages (that need authentication) both 
in http and https, passing jsession id in URL definitely causes security 
vulnerability.

Therefore I would request you to suggest us an work around to accomplish Single 
Logout having the constraints of cookie based load balancing and non-clustered 
environment (Non-session replication setup).

Thanks & Regards,
Gokula

The cookie is not accessible to the piece that calls logout (though if you send 
the jsession id, its the same thing).  I don't know of any current issues with 
passing the jsession id like you're doing, assuming you're using SSL.

Cheers,
Scott

Hi Scott,
Thank you, I understood CAS Single Signout Filter would solve my problem by 
storing the map of ticket and session id. Currently I am using CasClient 2.0.11 
so I need to upgrade to CasClient 3.1.

One question,
Our current environment has cookie-based loadbalancer which would forward the 
request based on the cookie name sufix (e.g. jsessionid.node1) which is mapped 
to server instance/node. so is there any way logoutofservices would pass the 
cookie as part of the request so that the request would reach the relevent 
instance/node for session invalidation.
I request you to advice me the best possible approach.


Thanks & Regards,
Gokula

Hi Scott,
No I have not tried with CAS Single Sign Out Filter but I don't get what you 
mean by the Listener with Spring Security. I have gone through the CAS Single 
Sign Out filter implementation and I also understand Acegi LogoutFilter does 
the same thing, the filter I am using is the extends acegi logout filter.
Please provide me more information how this is going to solve my problem so 
that I can try it out. It would be great if you could give me few URL links to 
the documentations/implementations. I have come across an implementation of 
single logout but with shared caching mechanism 
https://confluence.ucdavis.edu/confluence/display/IETP/CAS+Single+Sign+Out

Thanks in advance,

Thanks,
Gokula

Have you tried configuring the CAS Single Sign Out Filter and Listener with 
Spring Security?

Hi Scott,
Thanks for your response.

We have n number of applications (Application-A, Application-B, ... 
Appication-n) integrated with CAS for SSO through acegi filters. All the n 
applications are headed with acegi filter chain which is responsible for the 
redirection of the requests to CAS if the user is not authenticated (if user 
details not present in the security context holder). Once the user is 
authenticated (principal details are available in security context holder) all 
the consecutive requests to that application-A are never redirected to CAS and 
its until the expiry of the application-A session. Say if the user access 
application-B from same browser (New Tab) he is able to access without 
providing the credential. If he wants to Signout of the SSO he clicks on 
logout, the CAS (TGT) session is invalidated by CAS and logoutofservices 
request is sent to application-A and application-B. But the individual 
application (application-A, application-B) sessions needs to be invalidated in 
order to stop the user from accessing the application-A or application-B. Even 
if CAS SSO session (TGT) is invalidated the user will be able to access the 
application-A and application-B until the session of the applicationA/B is 
alive. Acegi never redirects the user to CAS for authentication until the 
application-A/B session is alive. Therefore only way out is to invalidate the 
application-A/B session so that the user will be redirected to CAS for 
authentication. The invalidation of session (session.invalidate()) is done by a 
LogoutFilter which is part of my acegi filter chain. The logoutfilter 
identifies the request (if it is logoutRequest) it executes a logic to 
invalidate that session. To invalidate at particular session the request should 
be attached with session identifier (either through cookie or url). That is the 
reason I am passing the jsessionid as part of URL. If the logoutofservices 
happens through browser the jsessionid cookie is sent by the browser to the 
server automatically.

Please advice me the best possible approach.


Thanks & Regards,
Gokula

The CAS client doesn't need it in the url in order to work.   Is there a reason 
you put it in the URL?

Hi Team,

CAS Single Logout does a Http URL Connection to all the registered services and 
does a logout request (SAML Post). The individual applications invalidates the 
sessions identifying the logout request.
In order to identify the session of the user from the logout request (SAML 
Post) we do a re-writing of jsessionid as part of service URL when the user 
gets redirected to CAS login page. The service URL now contains jsessionid and 
which is stored in CAS map. The CAS Login URL looks like 
https://domain.com/cas/login?service=https://domain.com/secureapp/j_acegi_cas_security_check;jsessionid=3D22FCE59C96D860823828FAA2EA6FD84B
 please note that the service URL contains jsessionid which will be used to 
identify and invalidate the session in the individual application.

This works as expect but I request you to validate the approach of 
passing/re-writing jsessionid as part of service URL. If this approach has 
security vulnerability, please explain and suggest the best approach for Single 
Logout.

Thanks in advance.


Thanks & Regards,
Gokula
