As someone who's been trying to push for this in Talend, I'm
obviously +1 to the idea. This is very similar to the discussion
we had back in July [1] about moving the WS-Notification stuff from
ServiceMix into CXF. Obviously no work has been done toward that
(yet), but I still support the idea of being able to have "out of
the box" some of these enterprise level services that can make
using CXF in more complex environments easier and more approachable.
I would also like to ask for opinions on where it should go in the
source - a new services module, or perhaps a subproject?
I personally prefer creating a new "services/sts" directory in cxf/
trunk to house this. One problem with subprojects is they seem to
attract their little sub-communities and they end up really
being separate from the main community. They can languish based on
old versions (like our current DOSGi issue), not release often
enough, etc... I'd just prefer to keep it in trunk so it's
built and tested with the entirety of CXF. At least for now.
That's my opinion.
+1 to be a new module in trunk

All,
I would like to initiate a discussion on contributing a STS (Security
Token Service) framework implementation to CXF. CXF currently has an
STS framework in the ws-security module, and ships with a simple
implementation in the examples. Talend would like to contribute a
more
sophisticated implementation of the STS framework to the community.
It
supports the following standards:
STS support
- WS-Trust 1.3/1.4
- WS-SecurityPolicy
Supports the following mechanism to authenticate an RST:
- UsernameToken
- SAML token (1.1/2.0)
- KerberosToken
- X509 Token
Following security bindings are supported:
- Symmetric
- Asymmetric
- Transport
Supports Issue/Validate and Cancel binding
Can issue the following tokens:
- SAML 1.1/2.0
- Holder-Of-Key
- Bearer
- custom tokens
Issued token can be encrypted
Validate binding supports issuing a new token.
Custom Validator can be implemented
Creation of SAML tokens can be customized:
- authenticationstatement
- attributestatements
Advanced RST elements:
- KeyType (Public, Symmetric, Bearer)
- Entropy (Symmetric, Public)
- OnBehalfOf
- ActAs
- Claims
- SecondaryParameters
- Custom ClaimsHandler
In my opinion, this implementation will greatly enhance CXF's
security
story and will help to drive new users to the product. I would like
to
ask the CXF community for their opinion on this contribution
