11 Configuring Policies

This chapter discusses how to configure policies in Web services and Web service clients to achieve Quality of Service (QoS) requirements.

The predefined policies are described in Appendix B, "Predefined Policies". This Appendix is the definitive source of information for the format of the policies. Some information from the Appendix is repeated here for your convenience.

This chapter includes the following sections:

Determining Which Security Policies to Use

Use the following series of questions to help you identify the security policies that best meet your requirements:

  1. What are the basic requirements of your security policy? Decide if you need to only authenticate users, or if you only need message protection, or if you need both.

    1. Do you require authentication only? If yes, then go to step 2.

    2. Do you require authorization only? If yes, then see "Authorization Policies and Configuration Steps"

    3. Do you require authentication and authorization? If yes, then go to step 3.

    4. Do you only require message protection? If yes, then see "Message Protection-Only Policies and Configuration Steps".

    5. Do you require both authentication and message protection? If yes, then go to step 4.

  2. If you only require authentication, then there are two basic questions you need to consider:

    1. Where will the token be inserted? Will the token to be inserted in the transport layer or in a SOAP header?

    2. Do you need to use a particular type of token? The supported credentials for authentication-only policies are username/password, SAML, and Kerberos tokens.

  3. If you require authentication and authorization, then you need to consider the following:

    1. Review the considerations provided for authentication in step 2.

    2. Review "Authorization Policies and Configuration Steps" for more information about authorization policies.

  4. If you require both authentication and message protection, then you need to consider the following:

    1. Will message protection be handled in the transport layer? If yes, then there are four sets of policies to choose from: Username over SSL, SAML over SSL (Sender-Vouches), SAML over SSL (Token Bearer), and HTTP token over SSL.

      In one set of policies (wss_http_token_over_ssl_client_policy and wss_http_token_over_ssl_service_policy) authentication is also handled in the transport layer. For the other three polices, authentication takes place in the SOAP header.

      If you are using the WS-Security V1.0 or V1.1 standard, then both authentication and message protection occur in the SOAP header. There are five pairs of policies supporting the following tokens: username/password, SAML, and X.509 certificates.

      For more information, see "Message Protection and Authentication Policies and Configuration Steps".

Protecting Messages

Message protection involves encrypting the message for message confidentiality and signing the message for message integrity. Oracle Fusion Middleware predefined policies and any policy you create using one of the message-protection assertion templates provide the options for message confidentiality, message integrity, or both.

The following steps summarizes what you must do to configure the clients and services for message protection:

Message Protection Basics

Message protection encompasses two concepts, message confidentiality and message integrity.

Message confidentiality involves keeping the data secret, as well as the identities of the sending and receiving parties. Confidentiality is achieved by encrypting the content of messages and obfuscating the identities of the sending and receiving parties. The sender uses the recipient's public key to encrypt the message. Only the recipient's private key can successfully decrypt the message, ensuring that it cannot be read by third parties while in transit. The Web service's base64-encoded public certificate is published in the WSDL for use by the Web service client, as described in "Using Service Identity Certification Extension".

Message integrity is achieved by having an authority digitally sign the message. Digital signatures are used to authenticate the sender of the SOAP message and to ensure the integrity of the SOAP message (that is, to ensure that the SOAP message is not altered while in transit).

When a digital signature is applied to a SOAP message, a unique hash is produced from the message, and this hash is then encrypted with the sender's private key. When the message is received, the recipient decrypts the hash using the sender's public key.

Note:

Generally, the recipient does not need to have the sender's public key in its keystore to validate the certificate. It is sufficient to have the root certificate in the keystore to verify the certificate chain. However, if the sender's public key is not present in the message, as in the case of the Thumbprint and SerialIssuer mechanisms, the sender's public key must be in the recipient's keystore.

This serves to authenticate the sender, because only the sender could have encrypted the hash with the private key. It also serves to ensure that the SOAP message has not been tampered with while in transit, because the recipient can compare the hash sent with the message with a hash produced on the recipient's end.

The message-protection assertion templates and predefined policies can be used to protect request and response messages by doing the following:

  • Signing messages

  • Encrypting messages

  • Signing and encrypting messages

  • Decrypting messages

  • Verifying signatures

  • Decrypting messages and verifying signatures

The Fusion Middleware Control user interface for the predefined message protection policies makes it easy to specify which message parts are signed, encrypted, or both. You can require that the entire body be signed, encrypted, or both, or identity specific header and body elements. The following is an example of partial encryption.

Example for Partial Encryption

In this example, a part of the SOAP message is encrypted using Fusion Middleware Control:

  1. Create a simple Web service that approves a credit card number (cardNr). A sample payload is shown in Example 11-1.

    Example 11-1 Example of a Payload

    <soapenv:Body     wsu:Id="Body-2grW1pYwjwsoskbLuMJZzg22"
    xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-ws
    security-utility-1.0.xsd">
     
     
        <aaav:validateTheCard     xmlns:aaav="http://aaavalidatecred/">
          <aaav:cardNr>string</aaav:cardNr>
           <aaav:firstName>string</aaav:firstName>
           <aaav:lastName>string</aaav:lastName>
           <aaav:validUntilDate>string</aaav:validUntilDate>
        </aaav:validateTheCard>
     
       </soapenv:Body>
    
  2. In Fusion Middleware Control, select a message protection policy and click Edit.

  3. In the Settings tab, select the Request tab.

  4. In the Message Encrypt Setting section, deselect Include Entire Body (Figure 11-1).

  5. Expand Body Elements and click Add.

  6. Enter the Namespace and the Element Name. In this example, only the card number is encrypted as follows:

    Namespace = http://aaavalidatecred/

    Element Name = //aaav:cardNr

    For more information on other fields in the Edit Policy page, see Table C-92. Example 11-2 shows what the policy would look like.

    Example 11-2 Sample Policy with Partial Encryption

    <orasp:encrypted-elements>
                   <orasp:element orasp:namespace="http://aaavalidatecred/"
    orasp:name="cardNr">n/a</orasp:element>
       </orasp:encrypted-elements>
    
  7. Click Yes to add the Body Elements and Save to save the modified policy.

Security SwA Attachments

Packaging as attachments in SOAP messages has become common for any data that cannot be placed inside SOAP Envelope. The primary SOAP message can reference additional entities as attachments or attachments with MIME headers.

Each SwA attachment is a MIME part and contains the MIME header. Include SwA Attachment signs the attachment but not the MIME header corresponding to that. Include MIME Headers signs the corresponding MIME headers as well as the attachments.

Which Policies Offer Message Protection?

The following policies offer message protection. The subsequent sections for each of these policies later in this chapter describe how each policy implements message protection.

  • oracle/wss10_message_protection_client_policy

  • oracle/wss10_message_protection_service_policy

  • oracle/wss10_username_id_propagation_with_msg_protection_client_policy

  • oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_client_policy

  • oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_service_policy

Both the WS-Security 1.0 and WS-Security 1.1 standards are supported. Use the assertion template or predefined policy that supports the standard which both the Web service and client share in common. If you are starting anew, use the WS-Security 1.1 standard because it provides more options and requires less PKI deployment.

The assertion templates support partial signing and encryption as well as full signing and encryption of the message body. For those assertion templates or predefined policies that provide SOAP message protection, the default behavior is to protect the entire SOAP message body by signing and encrypting the entire SOAP body. You can configure the assertions and policies to protect selected elements, if you wish.

Authentication-Only Policies and Configuration Steps

Table B-1 in Appendix B, "Predefined Policies" summarizes the security policies that enforce authentication only, and indicates whether the token is inserted at the transport layer or SOAP header.

This section lists the authentication-only predefined policies, indicates the type of Web service to which they apply, and provides a link to the configuration steps you must perform to use them.

oracle/wss_http_token_client_policy

The oracle/wss_http_token_client_policy policy includes credentials in the HTTP header for outbound client requests. It is the analogous client policy to the oracle/wss_http_token_service_policy service endpoint policy.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss_http_token_client_template. See "oracle/wss_http_token_client_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-2.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-3.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

You can specify a value for csf-key on the Configurations page, or override it on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy.

The value signifies a key that maps to a username/password. See "Adding Keys and User Credentials to the Credential Store" for information on how to add the key to the credential store.

If you do not set the Require Mutual Authentication control, one-way SSL is involved. See "Configuring SSL for a Web Service Client".

If you do set the Require Mutual Authentication control, the client must supply credentials, and expect credentials back from the Web service. See "Configuring Two-Way SSL for a Web Service Client".

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

See "Using Client Programmatic Configuration Overrides" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

The client must pass the credentials in the HTTP header.

If you do not set the Require Mutual Authentication control, one-way SSL is involved. See "Configuring SSL for a Web Service Client".

If you do set the Require Mutual Authentication control, the client must supply credentials, and expect credentials back from the Web service. See "Configuring Two-Way SSL for a Web Service Client".

oracle/wss_http_token_service_policy

The wss_http_token_service_policy uses the credentials in the HTTP header to authenticate users.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss_http_token_service_template. See "oracle/wss_http_token_service_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-2.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-4.

How to Set Up WebLogic Server

The Web service must authenticate the supplied username and password credentials against the configured authentication source.

Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to add an Authentication provider to the active security realm for the WebLogic domain in which the Web service is deployed, as described in "Configuring an Authentication Provider in WebLogic Server".

For mutual SSL authentication, you must configure WebLogic Server. See "Configuring SSL on WebLogic Server (Two-Way)".

oracle/wss_username_token_client_policy

Note:

This policy is not secure; it transmits the password in clear text. You should use this policy in low security situations only, or when you know that the transport is protected using some other mechanism. Alternatively, consider using the SSL version of this policy, oracle/wss_username_token_over_ssl_client_policy.

This policy includes credentials in the WS-Security UsernameToken header for all outbound SOAP request messages. A plain text mechanism is supported, in addition to a password not being required. It is the analogous client policy to the oracle/wss_username_token_service_policy service endpoint policy.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss_username_token_client_template. See "oracle/wss_username_token_client_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-5.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-6.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

You can specify a value for csf-key on the Configurations page, or override it on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy.

The value signifies a key that maps to a username/password. See "Adding Keys and User Credentials to the Credential Store" for information on how to add the key to the credential store.

If you specify a password type of None on the Settings page, you do not need to include a password in the key.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client At Design Time

See "Using Client Programmatic Configuration Overrides" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

The client must include a WS-Security UsernameToken element (<wsse:UsernameToken/>) in the SOAP request message. The client provides a username and password for authentication.

oracle/wss_username_token_service_policy

Note:

This policy is not secure; it transmits the password in clear text. You should use this policy in low security situations only, or when you know that the transport is protected using some other mechanism. Alternatively, consider using the SSL version of this policy, oracle/wss_username_token_over_ssl_service_policy.

This policy uses the credentials in the UsernameToken WS-Security SOAP header to authenticate users. The plain text mechanism is supported.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss_username_token_service_template. See "oracle/wss_username_token_service_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-5.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-7.

How to Set Up WebLogic Server

Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to add an Authentication provider to the active security realm for the WebLogic domain in which the Web service is deployed, as described in "Configuring an Authentication Provider in WebLogic Server".

oracle/wss10_saml_token_client_policy

Note:

This policy is not secure and is provided for demonstration purposes only. Although the SAML issuer name is present, the SAML token is not endorsed. Therefore, it is possible to spoof the message.

This policy includes SAML tokens in outbound SOAP request messages.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss10_saml_token_client_template. See "oracle/wss10_saml_token_client_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-8.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-9.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

See "Configuring SAML".

You can specify a value for saml.issuer.name on the Configurations page, or override it on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy. The saml.issuer.name property defaults to a value of www.oracle.com. See "Adding an Additional SAML Assertion Issuer Name" for additional considerations.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

See "How to Configure SAML Web Service Client at Design Time".

See "Using Client Programmatic Configuration Overrides" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

Include a WS-Security Header Element (<saml:Assertion>) that inserts a SAML token in the outbound SOAP message. The confirmation type is always sender-vouches.

oracle/wss10_saml_token_service_policy

Note:

This policy is not secure and is provided for demonstration purposes only. Although the SAML issuer name is present, the SAML token is not endorsed. Therefore, it is possible to spoof the message.

This policy authenticates users using credentials provided in SAML tokens in the WS-Security SOAP header.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss10_saml_token_service_template. See "oracle/wss10_saml_token_service_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-8.

Properties You Can Configure

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-11.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-13.

Configure the Login Module

Configure the saml2.loginmodule login module. See "Configuring the SAML and Kerberos Login Modules" for more information.

How to Set Up Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS)

See "Configuring SAML".

How to Set Up WebLogic Server

Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to add an Authentication provider to the active security realm for the WebLogic domain in which the Web service is deployed, as described in "Configuring an Authentication Provider in WebLogic Server".

The SAML login module extracts the username from the verified token and passes it to the provider.

oracle/wss11_kerberos_token_client_policy

This policy includes a Kerberos token in the WS-Security header in accordance with the WS-Security Kerberos Token Profile v1.1 standard.

Service principal names (SPN) are a key component in Kerberos authentication. SPNs are unique identifiers for services running on servers. Every service that uses Kerberos authentication needs to have an SPN set for it so that clients can identify the service on the network. If an SPN is not set for a service, clients have no way of locating that service and Kerberos authentication is not possible.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss11_kerberos_token_client_template. See "oracle/wss11_kerberos_token_with_message_protection_client_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-58.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-59.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

See "Using Kerberos Tokens".

The Web service client that is enforcing Kerberos client side policies needs to know the service principal name of the service it is trying to access. You can specify a value for service.principal.name on the Configurations page, or override it on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy. The default value (place holder) is HOST/localhost@oracle.com.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

See "Using Kerberos Tokens".

You must set the service principal name. The service principal name specifies the name of the service principal for which the client requests a ticket from the KDC.

If the Kerberos authentication is successful, then send the obtained Kerberos ticket and authenticator to the Web service enclosed in a BinarySecurityToken element in the SOAP Security header.

oracle/wss11_kerberos_token_service_policy

This policy is enforced in accordance with the WS-Security Kerberos Token Profile v1.1 standard.

Service principal names (SPN) are a key component in Kerberos authentication. SPNs are unique identifiers for services running on servers. Every service that uses Kerberos authentication needs to have an SPN set for it so that clients can identify the service on the network. If an SPN is not set for a service, clients have no way of locating that service and Kerberos authentication is not possible.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss11_kerberos_token_service_template. See "oracle/wss11_kerberos_token_with_message_protection_service_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-58.

Properties You Can Configure

None required.

Configure the Login Module

Configure the krb5.loginmodule login module. See "Configuring the SAML and Kerberos Login Modules" for more information.

How to Configure WebLogic Server

Use the WebLogic Server Administration Console to add an Authentication provider to the active security realm for the WebLogic domain in which the Web service is deployed, as described in "Configuring an Authentication Provider in WebLogic Server".

Message Protection-Only Policies and Configuration Steps

See "Protecting Messages" for a description of how the predefined policies implement message protection.

Table B-2 summarizes the policies that enforce only message protection, and indicates whether the policy is enforced at the transport layer or SOAP header.

Message protection-only policies do not authenticate or authorize the requester.

There may be either one or two Security policies attached to a policy subject. A Security policy can contain an assertion that belongs to the authentication or message protection (as in this case) subtype categories, or a single assertion that belongs to both subtype categories. You can then use an assertion that belongs to the authorization subtype to authorize the requester.

oracle/wss10_message_protection_client_policy

This policy provides message protection (integrity and confidentiality) for outbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.0 standard.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss10_message_protection_client_template. See "oracle/wss10_message_protection_client_policy" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-18.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-19.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

This policy requires you to set up the Oracle WSM keystore, as described in "Configuring Keystores for Message Protection".

The Web service's base64-encoded public certificate is published in the WSDL for use by the Web service client, as described in "Using Service Identity Certification Extension".

As an alternative, you can specify a value for keystore.recipient.alias on the Configurations page, or override it on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy. The keystore.recipient.alias specifies the alias used to look up the public key in the keystore when retrieving a key for encryption of outbound SOAP messages.

You can specify a value for keystore.sig.csf.key and keystore.enc.csf.key on the Configurations page, or override them on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

This policy requires you to set up the Web service client keystore, as described in "Setting Up the Web Service Client Keystore". The policy specifically requires that the client's and Web service's respective keystores already contain digital certificates containing each other's public key.

See "Using Client Programmatic Configuration Overrides" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

Example 11-3 shows the typical structure of a signature included in the Security header in conformance with the WS-Security 1.0 standards. In this example, the body element of the SOAP message is signed.

This policy requires you to set up the Web service client keystore, as described in "Setting Up the Web Service Client Keystore". The policy specifically requires that the client's and Web service's respective keystores already contain digital certificates containing each other's public key.

Example 11-3 shows the typical structure of a signature included in the Security header in conformance with the WS-Security 1.0 standards. In this example, the body element of the SOAP message is signed.

Example 11-4 is an example of the typical structure of encryption elements included in the Security header in conformance with the WS-Security 1.0 standards. In this example, the body element is encrypted.

oracle/wss10_username_token_with_message_protection_ski_basic256_service_policy

This policy enforces message-level protection (message integrity and confidentiality) and authentication for inbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.0 standard.

This policy uses the Subject Key Identifier (ski) reference mechanism for the encryption key in the request, and for both the signature and encryption keys in the response.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss10_username_token_with_message_protection_service_template. See "oracle/wss10_username_token_with_message_protection_service_template" for more information about the assertion.

Note:

Due to the import restrictions of some countries, the jurisdiction policy files distributed with the JDK 5.0 software have built-in restrictions on available cryptographic strength.

By default, policies that use the basic192 algorithms and above do not work with the bundled JRE/JDK. To use these algorithms, you need to download the JCE Extension jars (Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy Files 5.0) file from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index-jdk5-jsp-142662.html.

To use these policy files, you need to replace the following JAR files in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security with the corresponding JARs from the JCE Extension:

  • US_export_policy.jar

  • local_policy.jar

You should back up your existing JAR files before replacing them.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

You attach the wss11_saml_token_identity_switch_with_message_protection_client_policy to a Web service client of any type.

subject.precedence is set to false to allow for the use of a client-specified username rather than the authenticated subject. (If subject.precedence is false, the user name to create the SAML assertion is obtained only from the csf-key username property.) The wss11_saml_token_identity_switch_with_message_protection_client_policy policy requires that an application to which the policy is attached must have the WSIdentityPermission permission. That is, applications from which Oracle WSM accepts the externally-supplied identity must have the WSIdentityPermission permission. This is to avoid potentially rogue applications from providing an identity to Oracle WSM.

See "Configuring SAML Web Service Clients for Identity Switching" for information about how to use this policy. In particular, you need to "Set the javax.xml.ws.security.auth.username Property", and "Set the WSIdentityPermission Permission".

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_client_template. See "oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_client_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-69.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-70.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

This policy requires you to set up the Oracle WSM keystore, as described in "Configuring Keystores for Message Protection".

The Web service's base64-encoded public certificate is published in the WSDL for use by the Web service client, as described in "Using Service Identity Certification Extension".

As an alternative, you can specify a value for keystore.recipient.alias on the Configurations page, or override it on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy. The keystore recipient alias specifies the alias used to look up the public key in the keystore when retrieving a key for encryption of outbound SOAP messages.

You can specify a value for keystore.sig.csf.key and keystore.enc.csf.key on the Configurations page, or override them on a per-client basis using the Security Configuration Details control when you attach the policy.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

This policy requires you to set up the Web service client keystore, as described in "Setting Up the Web Service Client Keystore". The policy specifically requires that the client's and Web service's respective keystores already contain digital certificates containing each other's public key.

The Web service client needs to provide valid X.509 authentication credentials in the SOAP message through the WS-Security binary security token.

See "Using Client Programmatic Configuration Overrides" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

Example 11-5 is an example of the typical structure of encryption elements included in the Security header in conformance with the WS-Security 1.1 standards. In this example, the body element is encrypted.

oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_service_policy

This policy enforces message-level protection and certificate-based authentication for inbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.1 standard.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_service_template. See "oracle/wss11_x509_token_with_message_protection_service_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-69.

Properties You Can Configure

See Table C-71. You also have the option to override the keystore.enc.csf.key server-side configuration property, as described in "Attaching Web Service Policies Permitting Overrides".

How to Set Up Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS)

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

This policy requires you to set up the keystore, as described in "Configuring Keystores for Message Protection".

Store the trusted certificate that corresponds to the client's private key (used to sign the message) in the keystore. You also need to store the service's private key in the keystore for decrypting the message, and the CA root certificate.

You must store the password for the decryption key in the credential store, as described in "Adding Keys and User Credentials to the Credential Store". Use keystore.enc.csf.key as the key name.

You also have the option to override the keystore.enc.csf.key server-side configuration property, as described in "Attaching Web Service Policies Permitting Overrides".

How to Set Up WebLogic Server

You need to configure the Authentication provider, as described in "Configuring an Authentication Provider in WebLogic Server".

Authorization Policies and Configuration Steps

Frequently, authentication is the first step of determining whether a user should be given access to a Web service. After the user is authenticated, the second step is to verify that the user is authorized to access the Web service. This is accomplished using an authorization policy. You can create an authorization policy using the binding_authorization_template or the component_authorization_template assertion templates.

Policies created with these templates perform role- or permission-based access control (RBAC) and check that the authenticated user has been granted one of the roles or permissions allowed access to the Web service.

Appendix B, "Predefined Policies" summarizes the security policies that enforce authorization, and indicates whether the policy is enforced at the transport layer or SOAP header.

Note:

The authorization polices can follow any authentication policy where the subject is established.

You cannot attach both a permitall and denyall policy to the same Web service.

Determining Which Resources to Protect

The authorization policies provide the following properties that you can use to specify which resources you want the policy to protect. Not all of the predefined policies feature all of the properties.

  • Constraint Pattern -- Expression that represents the constraints against which authorization checks are performed. The constraints expression is specified using the following two messageContext properties:

    • messageContext.authenticationMethod—Determines the authentication method used to authenticate the user. The only valid value is SAML_SV.

    • messageContext.requestOrigin—Determines whether the request originated from an internal or external network. This property is valid only when using Oracle HTTP Server and the Oracle HTTP server administrator has added a custom VIRTUAL_HOST_TYPE header to the request. For details about adding this header to a request, see "Configuring Oracle HTTP Server to Specify Request Origin".

    Note the following:

    • The Constraint Pattern properties and their values are case sensitive.

    • The constraint expression uses the following standard supported operators: ==, !=, &&, || and !.

    In the following example, the role-based authorization assertion will be executed only if the current message does not contain a SAML_SV token OR the request origin is not internal.

    ${!(messageContext.authenticationMethod =='SAML_SV'|| messageContext.requestOrigin == 'internal')}
    

    Note:

    This property is valid for authorization policies based on the binding_authorization_template only. For policies based on other authorization assertion templates, this property is reserved for future use.
  • Action Pattern -- The Web service operation for which permission-based checks are performed. This value can be a comma-separated list of values. This field accepts wildcards. * means all Web service operations.

    The valid values for Action Pattern are determined by the Web service methods. For example, if the Web service method is validate(amountAvailable), enter the Action Pattern as validate.

  • Resource Pattern -- The name of the resource for which permission-based checks are performed. This field accepts wildcards, and the default is * for all resources in the Web services protected by the policy.

    By convention you enter the Resource Pattern as (namespace of Web service + Web service name).

    For example, if the namespace of the Web service is http://project11 and the Web service name is CreditValidation, you would enter the Resource Name as http://project11/CreditValidation.

    If you specify a specific Resource Pattern, the policy is enforced only for those Web services that match the criteria. That is, entering a specific Resource Pattern limits the scope of the authorization policy. This condition also applies if you have bulk-attached this authorization policy to multiple subjects. The default of * protects all resources (namespace of Web service + Web service name) of the bulk-attached Web services.

  • Permission Check Class -- By default, it is oracle.wsm.security.WSFunctionPermission. The class must be in the classpath.

  • Authorization Setting -- Possible values are Permit All, Deny All, and Selected Roles. If you choose Selected Roles, you must then select from the enterprise (Global) roles defined in WebLogic Server, which may include the following:

    • AdminChannelUser

    • Anonymous

    • AppTester

    • CrossDomainConnector

    • Deployer

    • Monitor

    • Operator

    • OracleSystemRole

How Authorization Permissions Are Determined

Conceptually, determining whether an authenticated subject is authorized to access a particular resource protected by a Web service policy has two parts that work in tandem.

OPSS uses the Policy Settings page for the Web service to determine which resources require an authorization check. Then, access to the resource is allowed if the authenticated subject has been granted WSFunctionPermission (or other permission) for that resource via OPSS.

Note:

If you changed the Permission Check Class configuration property for the policy to a custom class, use the custom class here as well.

Consider further the example shown in Figure 11-2 and Figure 11-3.

On the Policy Settings page, assume that you specify the following to protect the validate method of the http://project11/CreditValidation Web service:

Action pattern:        validate
Resource pattern:       http://project11/CreditValidation
Permission Check Class  oracle.wsm.security.WSFunctionPermission

Then, on the OPSS Application Policies page, you would use http://project11/CreditValidation#validate for the Resource Name to specify that the authenticated subject has permission to invoke this resource:

Permission Class: oracle.wsm.security.WSFunctionPermission
Resource Name:    http://project11/CreditValidation#validate 
Permissions Action:  invoke

You can grant the WSFunctionPermission permission to a user, a group, or an application role. If you grant WSFunctionPermission to a user or group it will apply to all applications that are deployed in the domain.

OPSS Resource Name Can Include Operation Name

In previous releases of Fusion Middleware Control, the Resource Name on the OPSS Application Policies page was determined by name-space-of-webservice/ServiceName. For example, if the name space of a Web service was http://project1/ and the service name was CreditValidation, the Resource Name would have been http://project1/CreditValidation. You could also use an asterisk (*) wildcard for providing permission to all the actions or all resources.

In this release, the resource target of the WSFunctionPermission is enhanced to include the actual Web service operation name. The syntax for the Resource Name is now name-space-of-webservice/servicename#[operation name]. (For a component it is compositename/componentname#[operation name].)]

You must now include at least the name-space-of-webservice/service name. That is, you can no longer use an asterisk (*) wildcard for providing permission to all the actions or all resources.

Instead, to specify all operations for a Web service, simply leave the operation name blank. For example, name-space-of-webservice/servicename#

Permission Action is always invoke.

How to Successfully Invoke Services Using This Policy

To successfully invoke a service that has the whitelist_authorization_policy attached, you must do one of the following:

  • If the service accepts SAML sender vouches for authentication (for example, a SAML token service policy is attached to the service), you must attach the corresponding SAML token client policy to the client.

  • If the service accepts username/password for authentication (for example, a username token service policy is attached to the service), you must attach the corresponding username token client policy to the client and make sure that the client is in a trusted role as defined in the policy. (By default, the role defined in the predefined policy is trustedEnterpriseRole. You need to modify this role in the predefined policy.)

  • If the service is invoked using Oracle HTTP Server, and it is configured to indicate that the request came from a private internal network (see "Configuring Oracle HTTP Server to Specify Request Origin"), then a client on the internal network only has to attach the corresponding username token client policy at the client side.

Configuring Oracle HTTP Server to Specify Request Origin

The Constraint Pattern property setting contains a requestOrigin field that specifies whether the request originated from an internal or external network. This property is valid only when using Oracle HTTP Server and the Oracle HTTP server administrator has added a custom VIRTUAL_HOST_TYPE header to the request.

To do so, the administrator must modify the httpd.conf file as follows:

  1. Verify that the module mod_headers is loaded.

  2. Set the VIRTUAL_HOST_TYPE header name in the RequestHeader. Valid values are internal and external. Use the following command syntax:

    RequestHeader set|append|add|unset header [value [env=[!]variable]]
    

    For example, to configure the virtual host for internal requests:

    <VirtualHost *:7777>
    RequestHeader set VIRTUAL_HOST_TYPE  "internal" 
    </VirtualHost>
    

    To configure the virtual host for external requests:

    <VirtualHost *:8888>
    RequestHeader set VIRTUAL_HOST_TYPE "external"
    </VirtualHost>
    

    In these examples, all the requests coming from outside of the private network are routed through virtual host:8888 and all the requests coming from the internal private network are routed through virtual host:7777.

    Note that you must also add these ports in the httpd.conf file as listen ports so that the applications are available on the ports externally.

  3. Restart the Oracle HTTP Server.

WS-Addressing Policies and Configuration Steps

The Web Services Addressing (WS-Addressing) specification (http://www.w3.org/TR/ws-addr-core/) provides transport-neutral mechanisms to address Web services and messages. In particular, the specification defines a number of XML elements used to identify Web service endpoints and to secure end-to-end endpoint identification in messages.

This section describes the predefined WS-Addressing policies.

oracle/wsaddr_policy

This policy causes the platform to check inbound messages for the presence of WS-Addressing headers conforming to the W3C 2005 Final WS-Addressing Policy standard. In addition, it causes the platform to include a WS-Addressing header in outbound SOAP messages.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

No configuration is needed.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

You are encouraged to configure the STS config policy from the Web service, as described in "Setting Up Automatic Policy Configuration for STS".

However, if you did not configure the STS config policy from the Web service, or if you are using the SAML sender vouches confirmation method, you must then configure it from the Web service client. See "Manually Configuring the STS Config Policy From the Web Service Client: Main Steps" for information on how to set up the Web service client.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

You are encouraged to configure the STS config policy from the Web service, as described in "Setting Up Automatic Policy Configuration for STS".

However, if you did not configure the STS config policy from the Web service, or if you are using the SAML sender vouches confirmation method, you must then configure it from the Web service client as described in this section.

See "Manually Configuring the STS Config Policy From the Web Service Client: Main Steps" for additional information on how to set up the Web service client.

You can set up and attach the oracle/sts_trust_config_client_policy policy programmatically, as shown in Example 11-6 and Example 11-7.

Example 11-6 Sample JSE Proxy Client

URL endpointUrl = new URL(getWebConnectionString() + "/jaxws-test-service/jaxws-test-port");
 
ServiceDelegateImpl client = new ServiceDelegateImpl(
    new  URL(endpointUrl.toString() + "?WSDL"),
    new QName("http://jaxws.oracle.com/targetNamespace/JaxwsService", "JaxwsService"),
    OracleService.class);
 
JaxwsService port = client.getPort(
    new  QName("http://jaxws.oracle.com/targetNamespace/JaxwsService", "JaxwsServicePort"),
    test.jaxws.client.JaxwsService.class);
 
((BindingProvider)port).getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.ENDPOINT_ADDRESS_PROPERTY,endpointUrl.toExternalForm());
((BindingProvider)port).getRequestContext().put(ClientConstants.CLIENT_CONFIG,
    fileToElement(new File("./jaxws/client/dat/oracle-webservice-client.xml")));

The related oracle-webservice-client.xml file with the STS config policy and STS issue policy is shown in Example 11-7.

Example 11-7 Sample oracle-webservice-client.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<oracle-webservice-clients>

See "Programmatic Configuration Overrides for WS-Trust Client Policies" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

The Web service's base64-encoded public certificate is published in the WSDL for use by the Web service client, as described in "Using Service Identity Certification Extension".

As an alternative, you can specify a value for keystore.recipient.alias, or override it on a per-client basis when you attach the policy. The keystore recipient alias specifies the alias used to look up the public key in the keystore when retrieving a key for encryption of outbound SOAP messages.

You can specify a value for keystore.enc.csf.key, or override them on a per-client basis when you attach the policy.

See "Setting Up Automatic Policy Configuration: Main Steps" for information on how to set up the Web service client.

This policy requires you to set up the Oracle WSM keystore to specify a key (username/password or X.509) to authenticate to the STS. See "Configuring Keystores for Message Protection".

See "Programmatic Configuration Overrides for WS-Trust Client Policies" for a description of the configuration settings you can override.

Configure the policy assertion for message signing, message encryption, or both.

The Web service's base64-encoded public certificate is published in the WSDL for use by the Web service client, as described in "Using Service Identity Certification Extension".

As an alternative, you can specify a value for keystore.recipient.alias, or override it on a per-client basis when you attach the policy. The keystore recipient alias specifies the alias used to look up the public key in the keystore when retrieving a key for encryption of outbound SOAP messages.

You can specify a value for keystore.enc.csf.key, or override them on a per-client basis when you attach the policy.

MTOM Attachment Policies and Configuration Steps

This section describes the predefined MTOM policies.

There are two potential behaviors for using MTOM with Oracle Infrastructure Web services, depending on how you configure MTOM:

oracle/wsmtom_policy

SOAP Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism/XML-binary Optimized Packaging (MTOM/XOP) defines a method for optimizing the transmission of XML data of type xs:base64Binary or xs:hexBinary in SOAP messages.

The Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) policy rejects inbound messages that are not in MTOM format and verifies that outbound messages are in MTOM format.

MTOM refers to specifications http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/REC-soap12-mtom-20050125 and http://www.w3.org/Submission/2006/SUBM-soap11mtom10-20060405 for SOAP 1.2 and SOAP 1.1 bindings, respectively.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

No configuration is required.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

To enable MTOM on the client of the Web service, pass the javax.xml.ws.soap.MTOMFeature as a parameter when creating the Web service proxy or dispatch, as illustrated in the following example.

package examples.webservices.mtom.client;
import javax.xml.ws.soap.MTOMFeature;
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    String FOO = "FOO";
    MtomService service = new MtomService()
    MtomPortType port = service.getMtomPortTypePort(new MTOMFeature());
    String result = null;
    result = port.echoBinaryAsString(FOO.getBytes());
    System.out.println( "Got result: " + result );
  }
}

Reliable Messaging Policies and Configuration Steps

WS-ReliableMessaging makes message exchanges reliable. It ensures that messages are delivered reliably between distributed applications regardless of software component, system, or network failures. Ordered delivery is assured and automatic retransmission of failed messages does not have to be coded by each client application.

Consider using reliable messaging if your Web service is experiencing the following problems:

WS-ReliableMessaging considers the source and destination of a message to be independent of the client/server model. That is, the client and the server can each act simultaneously as both a message source and destination on the communications path.

This section describes the predefined Reliable Messaging policies.

WS-RM Policy Properties

Table 11-1 lists the properties that you can set for the WS-RM policies.

Table 11-1 WS-RM Policy Properties

Property Name Description Default Value Used by Policy Possible Values

DeliveryAssurance

Delivery assurance. The following defines the delivery assurance types:

  • At Most Once—Messages are delivered at most once, without duplication.

  • At Least Once—Every message is delivered at least once. It is possible that some messages are delivered more than once.

  • Exactly Once—Every message is delivered exactly once, without duplication.

  • Messages are delivered in the order that they were sent. This delivery assurance can be combined with one of the preceding three assurances.

InOrder

AtLeastOnce

AtLeastOnceInOrder

ExactlyOnce

AtMostOnce

AtMostOnceInOrder

StoreType

Type of message store.

InMemory

InMemory

FileSystem (not fully supported)

JDBC

StoreName

Name of the message store.

oracle

String value

jdbc-connection-name

JNDI reference to a JDBC data source. This field is valid only if StoreType is set to JDBC. This value takes precedence over jdbc-connection-url. The username and password will be used if both are present.

jdbc/MessagesStore

Valid JDBC store

InactivityTimeout

Amount of time, in milliseconds, that can elapse between message exchanges associated with a particular WS-ReliableMessaging sequence. Once this value is reached, the sequence will be terminated and discarded automatically.

600000

The amount of time in milliseconds.

BaseRetransmissionInterval

Interval, in milliseconds, that the source endpoint waits after transmitting a message and before it retransmits the message if it receives no acknowledgment for that message.

3000

The amount of time in milliseconds.


oracle/wsrm10_policy

This policy provides support for version 1.0 of the Web Services Reliable Messaging protocol. This policy can be attached to any SOAP-based client or endpoint.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

The Web service client will automatically detect the WSDL policy assertions at run time and use them to enable the advertised version of WS-RM on the client.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client at Design Time

For multi-message sequences, the client code must include explicit invocations of methods for delimiting sequence boundaries. Otherwise, every message is wrapped in its own sequence

Edit the client to enable a reliable messaging session for the messages sent to the service. The oracle.webservices.rm.client.RMSessionLifecycle interface provides the client with a mechanism for demarcating WS-RM sequence boundaries.

Example 11-8 illustrates sample WS-RM client code. In the code, a new TestService is created. The TestPort, through which the client will communicate with the service, is retrieved. The port object is cast to a RMSessionLifecycle object and a reliable messaging session is opened on it (openSession). After the messages are sent to the service, the session is closed (closeSession).

Example 11-8 Sample WS-Rm Client Code

public class ClientServlet extends HttpServlet {
 
    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, 
                HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, 
                                                          IOException {
 
        int num1 =  Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("num1"));
        int num2 =  Integer.parseInt(request.getParameter("num2"));
        String outputStr = null;
 
        TestService service = new TestService();
        Test port = service.getTestPort();
 
        try {
        ((RMSessionLifecycle) port).openSession();
            outputStr = port.hello(inputStr);            
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();  
            outputStr = e.getMessage();
        } finally {
        ((RMSessionLifecycle) port).closeSession();
            response.getOutputStream().write(outputStr.getBytes());
        }
    }
}

oracle/wsrm11_policy

This policy provides support for version 1.1 of the Web Services Reliable Messaging protocol. This policy can be attached to any SOAP-based client or endpoint.

How to Set Up the Web Service Client

The Web service client will automatically detect the WSDL policy assertions at run time and use them to enable the advertised version of WS-RM on the client.

Management Policies and Configuration Steps

This section describes the predefined Management policies.

oracle/log_policy

This policy causes the request, response, and fault messages to be sent to a message log.

This policy contains the following assertion template: oracle/log_template. See "oracle/security_log_template" for more information about the assertion.

Settings You Can Change

See Table C-94.

Properties You Can Configure

None defined.

How to Set Up the Web Service or Client

Determine whether you want to log messages for the request and response, based on the following categories:

  • all

  • header

  • SOAP body

  • SOAP envelope

How to Set Up Oracle Platform Security Services (OPSS)

Messages are logged to the message log for the domain.

To view the message log

  1. In the navigator pane, expand WebLogic Domain to show the domain for which you want to see the logged messages. Select the domain.

  2. Using Fusion Middleware Control, click WebLogic Domain, then Logs and then View Log Messages.

Attaching Policy Files to Web Services and Clients

There are two ways to attach policies to Web service clients and Web services: at the client and service design time, and post deployment.

Post-deployment, you attach security and management policies to SOA composites, ADF, and WebCenter applications using the Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control. This method provides the most power and flexibility because it moves Web service security to the control of the security administrator.

At design time, Oracle JDeveloper automates ADF and SOA client policy attachment. Or, you can attach Oracle WSM security and management policies to applications programmatically. You typically do this using your favorite IDE, such as Oracle JDeveloper.

Either way, the client-side policy must be the equivalent of the one associated with the Web service. If the two files are different, and there is a conflict in the assertions contained in the files, then the invoke of the Web service operation returns an error.

For example, if the oracle/wss_http_token_over_ssl_service_policy policy requires mutual authentication, the client policy must also be set for mutual authentication.

For the predefined policies, both client and Web service policies are included. If you create a new policy, generating the policy as described in "Creating Web Service Policies" increases the likelihood that the client policy will work with the service policy.

Using Client Programmatic Configuration Overrides

"Attaching Client Policies Permitting Overrides" describes the policy configuration override feature that allows you to specify certain Web service client configuration information when you attach a policy. However, you can also override this configuration information programmatically at design time. This section describes client programmatic overrides.

Table 11-2 shows the properties you can set via programmatic configuration overrides for a given policy. Example 11-9 shows an example of setting these properties from a program.

Configuration Override Example

Example 11-9 shows an example of a Web service client overriding the keystore and username/password.

If you need to clear an overridden configuration property, set it to an empty string.

Before you clear it, remember that other policies could be using the same property. The properties are client-specific and there could be multiple policies that are attached to the same client that use the same property.

Example 11-9 Overriding the Keystore and Username/Password

package example;
import oracle.wsm.security.utils.SecurityConstants;
public class MyClientJaxWs {

Configuring Local Optimization for a Policy

Oracle WSM supports a SOA local optimization feature for composite-to-composite invocations in which the reference of one composite specifies a Web service binding to a second composite running in the same container. Local optimization enables you to bypass the HTTP stack and SOAP/normalized message conversions during run time.

This SOA local optimization feature is described in "Policy Attachments and Local Optimization in Composite-to-Composite Invocations" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Process Management Suite and summarized here.

Controlling When Local Optimization is Used

There are two ways to control the local optimization feature, and they have different scope:

  • By adding the oracle.webservices.local.optimization property in the binding section of the composite.xml file. There are two possible values, true and false:

    • true -- Local optimization is used if the policy supports it as shown in Table 11-3 and the policy-level control is configured to use it as described in "Configuring the Policy-Level Optimization Control".

      If optimization is used, the policy is not applied.

    • false -- Local optimization is not used, regardless of the how the policy-level control is configured and the default policy setting for the local-optimization property shown in Table 11-3.

      This setting forces the policy to be applied.

    The composite-level property is independent of the policy-level configuration. That is, if you want to turn off the optimization regardless of whether a policy is attached, set the composite-level property to false.

    See "Policy Attachments and Local Optimization in Composite-to-Composite Invocations" for information on overriding the local-optimization setting for a policy by adding the oracle.webservices.local.optimization property in the binding section of the composite.xml file.

  • By configuring the optimization control for a policy, as described in "Configuring the Policy-Level Optimization Control". The policy-level property controls the optimization wherever the policy is used, except as overridden by the composite-level property.

Configuring the Policy-Level Optimization Control

Notes:

If there is a policy attached to the Web service, the policy may not be invoked if this optimization is used. Therefore, for each policy you need to decide whether you want to use the local optimization.

Oracle recommends that you do not change the optimization settings for the predefined policies because doing so may cause the policies to not be invoked, resulting in unexpected behavior.

The optimization control is available when you create or edit a policy, as shown in Figure 11-4.

Figure 11-4 Local Optimization Control When Creating a Policy

Description of Figure 11-4 follows
Description of "Figure 11-4 Local Optimization Control When Creating a Policy"

There are three possible settings for the Local Optimization control: On, Off, and Check Identity:

  • On -- Optimization is turned on and the policy is not applied.

  • Off -- Optimization is turned off and the policy is applied. The request goes through the usual WS/SOAP/HTTP process.

  • Check Identity -- Optimize only if a JAAS subject already exists in the current thread, indicating that authentication has already succeeded. Otherwise, go through the usual WS/SOAP/HTTP process.

Table 11-3 shows the predefined policies, and describes how each policy implements the local optimization feature.
