QUESTION
There are two web-apps:
- an app for desktop browser;
- an app for mobile browser;
Ahead of them there is nginx. I have a trouble to configure nginx's reverse proxy depending on a browser type (desktop/mobile).
There is an example of a config below:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-31 at 23:49Well the "rewrite ... redirect" is executed by the client the "proxy_pass ..." from nginx servers.
I see 2 options:
- Add resolver to the config
- use 127.0.0.1 for localhost so that no resolving is necessary.
You can see the problem with resolving in this log line.
QUESTION
At my work, I have a task to search and find solutions to implement the ABAC authorization in our microservices organized in a monorepo. We have some products and we use the concept of realms to organize the different client's data in the same database. Here our requirements are likely:
- An user, which is a manager of his company, can only see data from your company and from your employees.
- The same company can have N places, where each can have a manager. The manager of each place can only see the data from there.
First I thought to build some code to be used in every router of every API to verify the authorization and allow or deny the request. Something like this:
The other thing I thought was to create an API instead of a lib.
So, based on this question, I discovered that ABAC can be externalized from the apps (APIs) and make a lot of sense to me, see the image below.
But then I have some questions.
Is bad to do what I thought in the first image or in the second?
How the PDP will know what the user wants to do? Based on the route he is calling? But with this approach, the single responsibility will be hurt as the PDP needs to internalize (step 2) what other apps do, right?
The PIP needs to call the database for the PDP validates the authorization. So this can be slow as the same query will be done 2x, one for checking the policy and the other inside the service with business logic.
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-09 at 14:30The modern way of doing this is by decoupling your policy and code - i.e. having a seperate microservice for Authorization - here's a part in a talk I gave at OWASP DevSlop about it. You'd want you code in the middleware to be as simple as possible - basically just querying the Authorization microservice. That service basically becomes your PDP (in XACML terms). This is true for both monolith and microservices (the assumption is you'll end up having more microservices next to your monolith anyhow).
To implement the Authorization microservice / PDP you can use something like OPA (OpenPolicyAgent.org) and then use OPAL as a PAP and manager for PIPs.The query to the PDP should include what the user is doing (but not what the rules are). You can do this based on the Route (common when doing service-mesh), but often it's better to define a resource/action layout which becomes part of the query and is independent directly of the application route. Take a look at the Permit.io Policy-Editor which does exactly that kind of mapping. (Permit also uses both OPA and OPAL internally)
Very good point. You don't want your PDP to constantly be querying other sources per incoming query to it (though its okay if you do it for a few edge cases) - What you want is to load data gradually in the background in an asynchronous fashion. Ideally in an event-driven fashion (i.e. have events propagate in realtime from the data sources into the PDP). This is exactly what you can do with OPAL.
QUESTION
I'm trying to write a regular expression which doesn't allow 'a' and 'c' to be next to each other in any combination of "abc" , the combinations might be "a" , "b" , "c" , "acb" , "abac" , here "abac" must be ignored because it contains "a" and "c" next to each other , I've written a regular expression which is doing half the job correct and the other half incorrect , it's basically ignoring a , bcb , bcc and others which are not supposed to be ignored.
Here's the regular expression :
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-26 at 22:53Your expression ignores several cases:
- anything with more than one
c
is ignored - anything with
a

coming afterc
is ignored (that means if there is ac
that has to be the last character) - anything containing an
a
is ignored if it doesn't contain also ab
after thata
- each
a
must be followed by ab
- also your grouping is probably not really the form you need. You should use
(?:X)
for a non capturing group.
I would suggest a regex like
QUESTION
Hi we are implementing ABAC over SpringSecurity (looks same as Axiomatics solution). So we would like to define custome expression and customize underlaying mechanisms. e.g. @PreAuthorize("myexpression").
At this point I'm trying understand how can I get information about the target method (the JoinPoint): name, class, parameters. I didn't find how to do it for SpringSecurity customization.
As I Inderstand, other solution may be implemention based direct on AOP e.g. @Around, however I would like to try first to find out if the Spring Security can provide me a way to get somehow JoinPoint it self, isn't it implemented over AOP ?
If anyone have an example, thanks.
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-17 at 20:30I would recommend checking out the new support for @PreAuthorize
in Spring Security 5.6 with @EnableMethodSecurity
. See the reference docs for information on how to customize the interceptors. There are numerous places you can hook into this support based on your requirements using delegation or fully replacing components with your own implementation.
In your case, it seems the most likely place to start would be creating an @Bean
to replace the AuthorizationManagerBeforeMethodInterceptor

...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-24 at 14:20Basically, not every integer is created equal. They have a max size in memory.
The issue is that there's not enough memory to represent such a large number, so the computer doesn't have enough space to represent your number.
EDIT: A better solution would be to use the % operator to avoid these issues. According to the exercise, that's what's recommended
Old solution:
A solution would be to use a different type of int like a int64_t (or if exact width isn't needed then long long would work too)

I am trying to follow this article for Secret Manager and tried applying attribute based access controll (ABAC) for AWS Lambda by using this user role policy linkage:
- Create IAM user
- Assign a role to this IAM user
- Role is assigned an ABAC policy for lambda.
currently my ABAC policy for Lambda usage for different users in a project is as follows:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-11 at 11:42The issue seems to be in the Actions
you defined. According to the tutorial you followed:
[...] see Actions, Resources, and Condition Keys for AWS Secrets Manager. That page shows that actions performed on the Secret resource type support the
secretsmanager:ResourceTag/tag-key
condition key. Some Secrets Manager actions don't support that resource type, includingGetRandomPassword
andListSecrets
.
Have a look at actions, resources, and condition keys for AWS services and for each service make sure the action supports the aws:ResourceTag/${TagKey}
condition. I didn't go through all the permissions but already the CloudWatch actions GetMetricData
and ListMetrics
do not support the aws:ResourceTag/${TagKey}
condition. Same goes for ec2:DescribeSecurityGroups
,
ec2:DescribeSubnets
, ec2:DescribeVpcs
, and probably a few more.
You must create additional statements to allow those actions i.e:

QUESTION
I have a quite specific question that I'm unsure about how to go forward with.
I have a list of numbers and I want to extract some specific patterns from them where I loop through the list and create a new one, it's easier to explain with an example.
Say I have a list, a = [2, 9, 3, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9].
What I want to do with this list is loop through 4 numbers at a time and give them corresponding letters, depending on when they occur in the sequence.
i.e. First four numbers = 2932 = ABCA
Second sequence of numbers = 9323 = ABCB
Third sequence = 3235 = ABAC
Fourth sequence = 2357 = ABCD
Fifth sequence = 3579 = ABCD
I then want to take these sequences and add them to another list which would now look like,
b = [ABCA, ABCB, ABAC, ABCD, ABCD]
I'm really unsure about how the format of the code should be, the length of the new list will always be 3 less than the original. Any help would be great, thanks.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-02 at 14:36I recommend using zip function for corresponding the numbers with the letters, while for the loop, use the "for" function.
QUESTION
So I'm trying implement a fairly simple ABAC system for my application and came across open policy agent during my investigations. It seems to be a good fit for my needs but I just can't make it work for my use case where I have an user object that is read from jwt claims that looks something like this: { email: "1@1.com", role: "admin", location: "us" }
. I want to check if that user has access rights to a specific path (which is provided as input, same as the user). So for example i want to give access rights to /admin/us
if user.role == admin and user.location == us
. I've created an example on the rego playground and it is working fine as long as the user has exactly the same claims as written in the policy, but fails if the user has any additional claims:
