GWT Spring Security Integration (PURE GWT, NO JSP)

I´m using GWT 2.4 and Spring 3.1 and I want to secure my application with Spring Security. I was looking for a GWT-only solution without a separate JSP login page. I found only old sites using JSP to do login, so this thread could result in a solution to fully integrate GWT with Spring Security in a standard way. Anyway, if there is a reference where this has been done successfully already, this thread can be closed with a link to that reference of course.

So far here is my first approach:

applicationcontext-security.xml:

<http auto-config="false" use-expressions="true" entry-point-ref="customAuthenticationEntryPoint">
    <intercept-url pattern="/ApplicationScaffold.html" access="permitAll" />
    <intercept-url pattern="/**" access="hasRole('ROLE_USER')" />
</http>

<beans:bean id="customAuthenticationEntryPoint" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.LoginUrlAuthenticationEntryPoint" 
    c:loginFormUrl="/ApplicationScaffold.html" />

<!-- Configure Authentication mechanism -->
<authentication-manager alias="authenticationManager">
    <authentication-provider>
        ...
    </authentication-provider>
</authentication-manager>

ApplicationScaffold.html (my application was created with Spring Roo) is my starting page containing the GWT login page.

web.xml:

<display-name>securitytest</display-name>

<description>Roo generated application</description>

<!-- Enable escaping of form submission contents -->
<context-param>
    <param-name>defaultHtmlEscape</param-name>
    <param-value>true</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>classpath*:META-INF/spring/applicationContext*.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

    <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.CharacterEncodingFilter</filter-class>
    <init-param>

        <param-value>WEB-INF/spring/webmvc-config.xml</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>requestFactory</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.securitytest.server.CustomRequestFactoryServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>securitytest</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>requestFactory</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/gwtRequest</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<session-config>
    <session-timeout>10</session-timeout>
</session-config>

The CustomRequestFactoryServlet class extends RequestFactoryServlet providing an additional constructor to resolve Spring services and should not be relevant to security issues.

After entering username and password on the GWT widget a login service is invoked (via RequestFactory) that simply does the following:

public String loginUser(String username, String password) {
    UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken token = 
            new UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(username, password);

    Authentication authenticatedUser = authenticationManager.authenticate(token);
    SecurityContextHolder.getContext().setAuthentication(authenticatedUser);

    return username;

}

So when I enter a URL like ../fooooooo I expect my application to redirect me to the login page (ApplicationScaffold.html). But only the URL in the browser´s address bar is set to ../ApplicationScaffold.html and nothing more happens.

What am I doing wrong?

Pure GWT solution:

  1. Do not use http element at all (http tag from config namespace)
  2. Define your AuthenticationRpcService
  3. Add AuthenticationRpcService.authenticate(user,password) method
  4. Inject into AuthenticationServiceImpl AuthenticationProvider bean from security-context.xml

  5. Implement AuthenticationRpcService.authenticate(user,password) as :

    User user = new User(login, password, true, true, true, true, new ArrayList<GrantedAuthority>());
Authentication auth = new UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(user, password,
        new ArrayList<GrantedAuthority>());
try {
    auth = this.authenticationProvider.authenticate(auth);
} catch (BadCredentialsException e) {
    throw new ClientSideBadCredentialsException(e.getMessage(), e);
}
SecurityContext sc = new SecurityContextImpl();
sc.setAuthentication(auth);

SecurityContextHolder.setContext(sc);

  6. Ensure that spring security filter chain is executed during processing of each your GWT RPC call (to be sure that SecurityContext populated into SecurityContextHolder).

  7. Secure all business services with @RolesAllowed({ "ADMIN_ROLE", "USER_ROLE" }) annotations
  8. Prepare your own ClientSideAcessDeniedException that can be used on client side
  9. In a case of spring AcessDeniedException propogate ClientSideAcessDeniedException to client side
  10. On client side set up UncaughtExceptionHandler via GWT.setUncaughtExceptionHandler
  11. In UncaughtExceptionHandler detect CustomAcessDeniedException and then show error to user.

I've found that all you can protect in gwt using Spring Security are the RPC calls but as far as the gui you can't. Remember they are javascript so there is no url to define in the security configuration. That is why all examples have the jsp login page. You would then have to implement some type of client side security using the userContext for frontend .
