我们正在为REST服务实现STS(基于声明的身份验证)。我们决定使用REST服务(带有JSON),其中一个原因是它在网络传输时占用的空间较小。但是,在使用STS时,SAML令牌只包含少量声明时,SAML大小变为几K字节。对于大多数REST调用,我们不返回对象列表,响应大小为低100个字节,对于这些调用,该令牌似乎过于繁琐。您在项目中如何处理这种情况?
如果涉及到IT技术,你需要了解JSON Web令牌(JWT)和ACS的相关知识。这个文章会对你有所帮助,介绍了Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5中的JSON Web Token Handler。下面是一个使用.NET 4.5签发和验证基于对称密钥的HMAC SHA256签名JWT的示例。
string jwtIssuer = "MyIssuer";
string jwtAudience = "MyAudience";
// Generate symmetric key for HMAC-SHA256 signature
RNGCryptoServiceProvider cryptoProvider = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider();
byte[] keyForHmacSha256 = new byte[64];
cryptoProvider.GetNonZeroBytes(keyForHmacSha256);
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Create signing credentials for the signed JWT.
// This object is used to cryptographically sign the JWT by the issuer.
SigningCredentials sc = new SigningCredentials(
new InMemorySymmetricSecurityKey(keyForHmacSha256),
"http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#hmac-sha256",
"http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#sha256");
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Create token validation parameters for the signed JWT
// This object will be used to verify the cryptographic signature of the received JWT
TokenValidationParameters validationParams =
new TokenValidationParameters()
{
AllowedAudience = s_jwtAudience,
ValidIssuer = s_jwtIssuer,
ValidateExpiration = true,
ValidateNotBefore = true,
ValidateIssuer = true,
ValidateSignature = true,
SigningToken = new BinarySecretSecurityToken(keyForHmacSha256),
};
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Create JWT handler
// This object is used to write/sign/decode/validate JWTs
JWTSecurityTokenHandler jwtHandler = new JWTSecurityTokenHandler();
// Create a simple JWT claim set
IList<Claim> payloadClaims = new List<Claim>() { new Claim("clm1", "clm1 value"), };
// Create a JWT with signing credentials and lifetime of 12 hours
JWTSecurityToken jwt =
new JWTSecurityToken(jwtIssuer, jwtAudience, payloadClaims, sc, DateTime.UtcNow, DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(12.0));
// Serialize the JWT
// This is how our JWT looks on the wire: <Base64UrlEncoded header>.<Base64UrlEncoded body>.<signature>
string jwtOnTheWire = jwtHandler.WriteToken(jwt);
// Validate the token signature (we provide the shared symmetric key in `validationParams`)
// This will throw if the signature does not validate
jwtHandler.ValidateToken(jwtOnTheWire, validationParams);
// Parse JWT from the Base64UrlEncoded wire form (<Base64UrlEncoded header>.<Base64UrlEncoded body>.<signature>)
JWTSecurityToken parsedJwt = jwtHandler.ReadToken(jwtOnTheWire) as JWTSecurityToken;
您可以在REST端点中使用SAML令牌,但更常见的是人们使用简单Web令牌(SWT)。它们更小、更简单等。
例如,Windows Azure平台中的ACS(访问控制服务)实现了这一点。
