Consume a Web Service that requires WS-Security from ASP.NET 4.5 Application

Question

I need to consume a web service that requires WS-Security based on X.509 certificates from ASP.NET 4.5 application. So far i have created the web reference but i don't know how implement WS-Security. I have no problem with getting the certificate, but i don't know how to use it in this case, i need to get advice on how to proceed.

My code so far is very basic, i need to add WS-Security to it:

var tere = new serviciotereSoapClient(); 
tere.ClientCredentials.ClientCertificate.Certificate = myCert;
var response = tere.agregarGuia( guia );

Service configuration:

  <system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding name="serviciotereSoapBinding" >
          <security mode="Transport">
            <transport clientCredentialType="None" proxyCredentialType="None"
              realm="" />
            <message clientCredentialType="Certificate" algorithmSuite="Default" />
          </security>          
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client>
      <endpoint address="https://secure.aduana.gov.py/test/tere/serviciotere"
        binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="serviciotereSoapBinding"
        contract="TEREReference.serviciotereSoap" name="serviciotereSoap" />
    </client>
  </system.serviceModel>

EDIT 1

Based on the answer of @TrevorBrooks i came with the following implementation:

1. Create a service proxy using SvcUtil.exe
2. Add wsHttpBinding to web.config
3. Changed the endpoint to use the binding added in step 2.
4. Changed the code to use the new WCF client.

The web.config now looks like this:

<system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <wsHttpBinding>
        <binding name="WSHttpBinding_TereService" >
          <security mode="Transport">
            <transport clientCredentialType="None" proxyCredentialType="None"
              realm="" />
            <message clientCredentialType="Certificate" algorithmSuite="Default" />
          </security>
        </binding>
      </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client>
      <endpoint address="https://secure.aduana.gov.py/test/tere/serviciotere"
        binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WSHttpBinding_TereService"
        contract="serviciotereSoap" name="WSHttpBinding_TereService" />
    </client>
  </system.serviceModel>

Now when invoking the service i get ProtocolException with the message:

The content type text / xml; charset = UTF-8 of the response message does not match the content type of the binding (application / soap + xml; charset = utf-8). If using a custom encoder, be sure that the method is implemented properly IsContentTypeSupported. The first 372 bytes of the response were:

        <env:Envelope xmlns:env='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'> 
            <env:Header> </ env: Header> 
            <env: Body > 
                <env: Fault xmlns:env='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'>
                <faultcode>env:Server</faultcode>
                <faultstring> org.jboss.ws.core.CommonSOAPFaultException: 
This service requires <wsse:Security>, which is missing </ faultstring>. </ Env: Fault> 
            </env:Body> 
        </env:Envelope>

This error is a step forward for me because with basicHttpBinding the exception was more horrible
The problem is because the Service requires WS-Security and need to sign the message with a certificate, that is my problem and i cannot yet figure out how to do it. In this other question i gave the details too.

EDIT 2: I was now provided a sample envelope that works for the service.

Answer 1

There is general information on all types of security and bindings here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.wshttpbinding.aspx

But you need to configure WS-Security in your web.config file as outlined here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms734663.aspx

For example, instead of <basicHttpBinding> you might use something like:

    <bindings>
        <wsHttpBinding>
            <binding name="WSHttpBinding_ICalculator" />
        </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client>
        <endpoint address="http://localhost:8000/ServiceModelSamples/Service/CalculatorService"
            binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WSHttpBinding_ICalculator"
            contract="ServiceReference1.ICalculator" name="WSHttpBinding_ICalculator">
            <identity>
                <userPrincipalName value="[email protected]" />
            </identity>
        </endpoint>
    </client>

Here's a nice little tutorial on the subject as well: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff648431.aspx

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

You can use custom binding like this:

<customBinding>
    <binding name="WSHttpBinding_TereService">
      <security authenticationMode="CertificateOverTransport" 
                defaultAlgorithmSuite="Basic128Rsa15" 
                enableUnsecuredResponse="true">
      </security>
      <textMessageEncoding messageVersion="Soap11WSAddressing10"/>
      <httpsTransport/>
    </binding>
</customBinding>

And setting your httpsTransport options
