Summary:
This ticket involves integrating JSON Web Tokens (JWT) into the Java Spring application to enable user authentication using both OAuth2 and basic username/password credentials. The goal is to enhance the application's security by implementing a robust authentication mechanism that generates and validates JWT tokens for authorized access.
Details:
OAuth2 Integration:
Integrate an OAuth2 provider (e.g., Google, Facebook, GitHub) for authentication.
Implement the necessary configurations and dependencies for OAuth2 authentication.
Develop the OAuth2 login flow, including redirection to the provider's login page and retrieval of access tokens.
Verify the received access token from the provider and fetch user details.
Generate a JWT token upon successful authentication, including relevant user information and permissions.
Ensure proper handling of token expiration and refresh tokens for seamless user sessions.
Implement API endpoints to verify and decode the JWT token for subsequent authorized API requests.
Basic Authentication Integration:
Implement an API endpoint to handle basic authentication requests (username/password).
Validate the provided credentials against the stored user data or authentication provider.
Generate a JWT token upon successful authentication, including relevant user information and permissions.
Handle token expiration and refresh tokens for prolonged user sessions.
Implement API endpoints to verify and decode the JWT token for subsequent authorized API requests.
Secure Token Storage:
Store JWT tokens securely, following best practices and encryption standards.
Implement necessary mechanisms to prevent token leakage or unauthorized access.
Logging and Auditing:
Implement comprehensive logging to track successful and failed authentication attempts.
Log relevant user information, timestamps, and authentication details for auditing purposes.
Error Handling and Response:
Handle authentication errors gracefully and provide appropriate error responses.
Customize error messages and responses based on the authentication method (OAuth2 or basic).
Write unit tests to ensure the proper functionality and security of the authentication process.
Validate the integration with real-world scenarios, including edge cases and error conditions.
