I'm using Spring Security 3.0.2 and I can't find a way to load roles of anonymous user from database (I've got dynamic roles where roles can be given to everyone).
I've tried to use a custom anonymousAuthenticationProvider but this provider is never called. Here is my config:
<http auto-config="false">
<logout invalidate-session="true" logout-success-url="/page/welcome" />
<remember-me />
<anonymous username="_GUEST_" granted-authority="ROLE_GUEST" key="anonymousKey" />
<form-login login-page="/page/login" authentication-failure-url="/page/login?fail=1" default-target-url="/page/welcome" />
</http>
<authentication-manager alias="authenticationManager">
<authentication-provider ref="anonymousAuthenticationProvider"></authentication-provider>
<authentication-provider user-service-ref="accountDetails">
<password-encoder ref="passwordEncoder">
<salt-source user-property="xxxx" />
</password-encoder>
</authentication-provider>
</authentication-manager>
<beans:bean id="accountDetails" class="com.mysite.AccountDetailsImpl" />
<beans:bean id="passwordEncoder" class="org.springframework.security.authentication.encoding.ShaPasswordEncoder">
<beans:constructor-arg value="512" />
</beans:bean>
<beans:bean id="anonymousAuthenticationProvider" class="com.my.site.security.CustomAnonymousAuthenticationProvider">
<beans:property name="key" value="anonymousKey" />
</beans:bean>
My anonymousAuthenticationProvider is never called so I can't load custom authorities from database. When I log in, my service accountDetails is called and I can load roles from database for the user, I want the same thing for anonymous user.
How can I do it ? thanks
It seems to be that the easiest way to achieve it is to declare a AnonymousAuthenticationFilter
with a custom UserAttribute
, which will produce the required authorities:
<http auto-config = "false">
<anonymous enabled = "false" />
<custom-filter ref = "myFilter" position = "ANONYMOUS_FILTER" />
...
</http>
<beans:bean id = "myFilter" class = "org.springframework.security.web.authentication.AnonymousAuthenticationFilter">
<beans:property name = "key" value = "anonymousKey" />
<beans:property name = "userAttribute" ref = "myAttributes" />
</beans:bean>
<beans:bean id = "myAttributes" class = "..." />
