Kong Siteminder Auth

Siteminder authentication integration with the Kong Gateway

Configuration

You can add the plugin with the following request:

$ curl -X POST http://kong:8001/apis/{api}/plugins \
    --data "name=kong-siteminder-auth" \
    --data "config.siteminder_endpoint=https://siteminder-webservice.company.com/auth/something" \
    --data "config.method=POST" \
    --data "config.content_type=application/xml" \
    --data "config.timeout=10000" \
    --data "config.keepalive=60000" \
    --data "config.authenticated_group=by_route_id" \

The config.authenticated_group helps set the context of the group defined on the tx for native Kong ACL plugin integration so you have the capability to run this auth pattern alongside other Kong auth patterns.

You will also need to configure these shm cache dicts in your Kong template for this plugin to leverage:

# exclusive siteminder shm caches
lua_shared_dict kong_sm_cache       5m;
lua_shared_dict kong_sm_cache_miss  2m;
lua_shared_dict kong_sm_cache_locks 1m;

NOTE:

A client can call the proxy by passing the siteminder session into 1 of two sections of the request:

Option 1: SiteminderToken header, ex:

SiteminderToken: eRJBOMWgghIUuLP5iuBezXaKjIqG3kssOWfiRf……

Option 2: As a SMSESSION Cookie header, ex:

Cookie: SMSESSION=eRJBOMWgghIUuLP5iuBezXaKjIqG3kssOWfiRf……;

Also, Kong will populate X-UserInfo header with the successful response body received from Siteminder to send to the API provider.
