########## docs/security-openid-connect.md: ########## @@ -0,0 +1,224 @@ +--- +id: security-openid-connect +title: Authentication using OpenID Connect +sidebar_label: "Authentication using OpenID Connect" +--- + +Apache Pulsar supports authenticating clients using [OpenID Connect](https://openid.net/connect), which is an implementation of the OAuth 2.0 Protocol. Using an access token obtained from an OpenID Connect compliant Identity Provider service acting as the token issuer, you can identify a Pulsar client and associate it with a "principal" (or "role") that is permitted to do some actions, such as publishing messages to a topic or performing some admin operation. + +The source code for the OpenID Connect implementation is in the [pulsar-broker-auth-oidc](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/blob/master/pulsar-broker-auth-oidc/) submodule in the Apache Pulsar git repo. + +## OpenID Connect Authentication Flow + +After authenticating with the Identity Provider, the Pulsar client gets an access token from the server and passes this access token to Pulsar Server (Broker, Proxy, WebSocket Proxy, or Function Worker) for authentication. When using the `AuthenticationProviderOpenID` class, the Pulsar Server performs the following validations in order: + +1. Validate that the token's issuer claim (`iss`) is one of the allowed token issuers (`openIDAllowedTokenIssuers`). +2. Retrieve and cache the OpenID Connect discovery document from the issuer following the [OpenID Connect Discovery 1.0](https://openid.net/specs/openid-connect-discovery-1_0.html) specification. +3. Verify the resulting JSON document's `issuer` field matches the token's issuer claim. +4. Retrieve and cache the public key set from the `jwks_uri` provided by the discovery document obtained in step 2. +5. Verify the signature of the token using the public key set obtained in step 4. +6. Validate the token's claims, like `aud`, `exp`, `iat`, and `nbf`. +7. When token validation is successful, the Pulsar Server extracts the `sub` claim from the token (or the configured `openIDRoleClaim`) and uses it as the principal for authorization. +8. When the token expires, the Pulsar Server challenges the client to re-authenticate with the Identity Provider and provide a new access token. If the client fails to re-authenticate, the Pulsar Server closes the connection. + +## Enable OpenID Connect Authentication in the Brokers, Proxies, and WebSocket Proxies + +To configure Pulsar Servers to authenticate clients using OpenID Connect, add the following parameters to the `conf/broker.conf`, the `conf/proxy.conf`, and the `conf/websocket.conf` files. If you use a standalone Pulsar, you need to add these parameters to the `conf/standalone.conf` file: + +```properties +# Configuration to enable authentication +authenticationEnabled=true +authenticationProviders=org.apache.pulsar.broker.authentication.oidc.AuthenticationProviderOpenID + +# Required settings for AuthenticationProviderOpenID +# A comma separated list of allowed, or trusted, token issuers. The token issuer is the URL of the token issuer. +PULSAR_PREFIX_openIDAllowedTokenIssuers=https://my-issuer-1.com,https://my-issuer-2.com +# The list of allowed audiences for the token. The audience is the intended recipient of the token. A token with +# at least one of these audience claims will pass the audience validation check. +PULSAR_PREFIX_openIDAllowedAudiences=audience-1,audience-2 + +# Optional settings (values shown are the defaults) +# The path to the file containing the trusted certificate(s) of the token issuer(s).

It is part of the OIDC spec to use HTTPS, so the default is true. +# This setting is for testing purposes and is not recommended for any production environment. +PULSAR_PREFIX_openIDRequireIssuersUseHttps=true + +# A setting describing how to handle discovery of the OpenID Connect configuration document when the issuer is not +# in the list of allowed issuers. This setting is documented below. +PULSAR_PREFIX_openIDFallbackDiscoveryMode=DISABLED +``` + +::: note +When using OIDC for a client connecting through the proxy to the broker, it is necessary to set the broker's `openIDAcceptedTimeLeewaySeconds` to double the proxy's `authenticationRefreshCheckSeconds` configuration because the proxy caches the client's token and only refreshes it when it is expired. As such, in certain cases, when the proxy initiates a new connection to the broker, the token may not yet be expired in the proxy, but may be expired when it reaches the broker. You can mitigate this edge case by setting the broker's `openIDAcceptedTimeLeewaySeconds` correctly. +::: + +## Enable OpenID Connect Authentication in the Function Worker + +To configure the Pulsar Function Worker to authenticate clients using OpenID Connect, add the following parameters to the `conf/functions_worker.yml` file.
