public interface UserPasswordEditorMBean
Provides two methods for changing a user's password. An Authentication provider MBean can optionally implement this MBean. The WebLogic Server Administration Console detects when an Authentication provider implements this MBean and automatically provides a tab for using these methods.
CSS v4 introduced a new Password Validaton Service to check password against a set of rules when doing
changing password operations with authentication provider MBeans such as createUser, changeUserPassword
and resetUserPassword. The rules can be specified through configuring Password Validation Provider into the
security realm, for further information, see weblogic.management.security.RealmMBean
.
All OOTB authentication providers in CSS will automatically call the Password Validation Service if their MBeans inherit
UserPasswordEditorMBean
interface. The service is also available for all those customized authentication
providers whose MBeans inherit UserPasswordEditorMBean
, to introduce the Password Validation Service into a
customized authentication proivder, the following approach must be met:
1. In the initialize method of a customized provider implementation, must retrieve the Password Validation
Service and register the service into a helper class such as weblogic.security.provider.authentication.AuthenticationSecurityHelper
,
the code might like as below:
import com.bea.common.security.service.PasswordValidationService; import com.bea.common.security.legacy.ExtendedSecurityServices; import com.bea.common.security.internal.legacy.helper.PasswordValidationServiceConfigHelper; import weblogic.security.provider.authentication.AuthenticationSecurityHelper; ...... ExtendedSecurityServices extendedSecurityServices = (ExtendedSecurityServices)securityServices; PasswordValidationService serivce = (PasswordValidationService)extendedSecurityServices.getServices(). getService(PasswordValidationServiceConfigHelper.getServiceName(providerMBean.getRealm())); AuthenticationSecurityHelper.getInstance(providerMBean).registerPasswordValidationService(service); ......
2. In the createUser, changeUserPassword and(or) resetUserPassword methods of a customized authentication
provider MBean, call the helper class to validate the new password to determine if the new password is valid. The code might be:
import weblogic.security.provider.authentication.AuthenticationSecurityHelper; ..... AuthenticationSecurityHelper.getInstance(providerMBean).validatePassword(userName,password); .....
