Angular 6 Spring Boot POST Issue

Question

I am trying to set up an angular 6 application that talks to a local spring boot REST application.

I have finally been able to login, and use GET requests, which seem to use the correct cookies. There are 2 cookies, a JSESSION cookie, and a XSRF cookie. The issue is I am getting a 403 response from any POST request. I am pretty confident that it is more of an issue with my Spring set up.

Spring Security config:

@Configuration
public class CORSConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {

@Override
public void addCorsMappings(CorsRegistry registry) {
    registry.addMapping("/**")
        .allowedOrigins("http://localhost:4200")
        .allowCredentials(true)
        .allowedHeaders("*")
        .allowedMethods("GET", "POST", "*")
        .exposedHeaders("Set-Cookie","Authorization");
}

And

@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
     http
        .cors()
     .and()
        .httpBasic()
     .and()
        .authorizeRequests()
          .antMatchers("/", "/main", "/user", "/runtime.js","/polyfills.js",
                  "/main.js", "/styles.js", "/vendor.js").permitAll()
          .anyRequest().authenticated()
     .and()
        .csrf()

.csrfTokenRepository(CookieCsrfTokenRepository.withHttpOnlyFalse())
     .and().sessionManagement().maximumSessions(1).and()
          .sessionCreationPolicy(SessionCreationPolicy.IF_REQUIRED);

}

Please note the antMatchers besides "/user" aren't actually being used in this set up. Those files are being served locally using ng serve.

My angular set up:

@Injectable()
export class AuthenticationInterceptor implements HttpInterceptor{

intercept(req: HttpRequest<any>, next: HttpHandler): 
Observable<HttpEvent<any>>
{
    const xhr = req.clone({
        headers: req.headers.set('X-Requested-With', 'XMLHttpRequest'),
        withCredentials: true
      });
      return next.handle(xhr);
}

This call will work now:

getExercise(id:Number): Observable<Exercise>
{
    return this.http.get<Exercise>(environment.baseUrl + '/api/exercise/' + id);
}

But this one, a POST, will not.

saveExercise(exercise: Exercise): Observable<Exercise>
{
   return this.http.post<Exercise>(environment.baseUrl + 
   '/newExercise',exercise);
}

Spring Security logs for the GET:

Answer 1

For any one having the same issue, doing

csrf().disable() 

will fix this, though I have no idea why. It seems as spring CSRF and CORS clash in some way when using cookies...

If I had to guess, the below is not working as expected

.csrf().csrfTokenRepository(CookieCsrfTokenRepository.withHttpOnlyFalse())

which is strange because it makes direct reference to Angular:

A CsrfTokenRepository that persists the CSRF token in a cookie named "XSRF-TOKEN" and
reads from the header "X-XSRF-TOKEN" following the conventions of AngularJS. When 
using with AngularJS be sure to use withHttpOnlyFalse().

The above seems to be true - I see that the CSRF token is set and sent by the browser, but Spring is not accepting it as valid. (see logs above)

Invalid CSRF token found for http://localhost:8080/newExercise


Request Cookies                         
JSESSIONID  31AD5A7891F8BB83072BFC040AABBB35        
XSRF-TOKEN  579db734-412c-4ce8-82a2-20aa097e47f

For now, disabling CSRF will work for development, but there is a real world use case for serving my angular app from a separate server, which is the ONLY server that should be able to make requests to my spring server. Hopefully the additional information can help someone, and I will try to post a real answer here if I ever find it.

Answer 2

Try to replace your .csrfTokenRepository(CookieCsrfTokenRepository.withHttpOnlyFalse()) with csrfTokenRepository and CsrfFilter:

 .csrfTokenRepository(csrfTokenRepository()).and()
    .addFilterAfter(csrfHeaderFilter(), CsrfFilter.class);

See full answer

@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http.httpBasic().and().authorizeRequests()
    .antMatchers("/send-pin").permitAll() 
    .antMatchers("/check-pin").permitAll()
    .antMatchers("/index.html", "/", "/login", "/someotherrurl") 
    .permitAll().anyRequest().authenticated().and().csrf()
    .csrfTokenRepository(csrfTokenRepository()).and()
    .addFilterAfter(csrfHeaderFilter(), CsrfFilter.class);
