SAMLv2 integration in GeoNetwork #6048

Closed luciaV86 closed 6 months ago

luciaV86 commented 2 years ago

Hello there, we would like to enable our users to login into GeoNetwork by using Single Sign-On. Has GeoNetwork a backend for the SAML v2 protocol? Unfortunately I found no info about it and what is indicated here (https://www.geocat.net/docs/geonetwork-enterprise/latest/geonetwork/community/administrator-guide/managing-users-and-groups/authentication-mode.html?highlight=authentication) as Shibboleth authentication configuration seems to be deprecated. I was wondering if it is something planned for the next deployments. Thank you very much in advance.

Hi @luciaV86

Afaik Shibboleth should work in GeoNetwork 3.x and 4.x.

I think the latest versions of Spring Security have support for SAML v2, but I don't know any plans to support it in GeoNetwork.

The latest versions of GeoNetwork also support KeyCloak, check if that can be an alternative suitable for you to support Single Sign-On.
