Mod_auth_pubtkt 0.8

Posted Jun 28, 2012

Site neon1.net

mod_auth_pubtkt is a simple Web single sign-on (SSO) solution for Apache. It validates authentication tickets provided by the client in a cookie using public-key cryptography (DSA or RSA). Thus, only the login server that generates the tickets needs to possess the private key, while Web servers can verify tickets given only the public key. The implementation of the login server is left to the user, but an example and a library in PHP are provided with the distribution.

Changes: A new option and corresponding field in the ticket ("bauth") make it possible to specify the Basic authorization username/password in the ticket (e.g., when reverse proxying to a third party system which cannot use mod_auth_pubtkt). The credentials can optionally be encrypted in the ticket.
