  • Server Side
    • HTTP handler wrapper implements SPNEGO Kerberos authentication
    • HTTP handler wrapper decodes Microsoft AD PAC authorization data
  • Client Side
    • Client that can authenticate to an SPNEGO Kerberos authenticated web service
    • Ability to change client's password
  • General
    • Kerberos libraries for custom integration
    • Parsing Keytab files
    • Parsing krb5.conf files
    • Parsing client credentials cache files such as /tmp/krb5cc_$(id -u $(whoami))

The following is working/tested:

  • Tested against MIT KDC (1.6.3 is the oldest version tested against) and Microsoft Active Directory (Windows 2008 R2)
  • Tested against a KDC that supports PA-FX-FAST.
  • Tested against users that have pre-authentication required using PA-ENC-TIMESTAMP.
  • Microsoft PAC Authorization Data is processed and exposed in the HTTP request context. Available if Microsoft Active Directory is used as the KDC.
