How can we pass additional data to Client application from Identity Server 4 in response after successful authentication?

We are using Identity Server 4 as an Auth server for our application to have user authentication and SSO feature. User information is stored and is getting authenticated by an external service. IDS calls the external service for user authentication. On successful authentication, the service returns the response back to IDS with 2 parameters:

1. Authorization code
2. Additional information (a collection of attributes) for the user.

IDS further generates Id token and returns response back to MVC client with standard user claims. I want to pass the additional user information(attributes) to client application to display it on page. We tried adding the attributes as claims collection through context.IssuedClaims option but still I am not getting those attributes added and accessible to User.Claims collection in MVC client app.

Can anyone suggest an alternative way by which we can pass those custom attributes to client app. either through claims or any other mode (httpcontext.Items collection etc)

So I initialized CAS using cas-initializr with the following command inside the cas folder:

I'm working on a Chrome extension that integrates with a website. My users can do actions on this website when they are logged in to it.

I have a Socket.IO server that delivers commands to my Chrome extension. Once a command arrived, the extension invokes a local function from the host website. Then, the host website, which has an authenticated active session with its own API, will invoke some update/insert call.

I recently realized a potential security issue, which is - if anyone spoofs my server address on my extension clients organization, he can easily abuse it to send his own parameters on behalf of my server (image 2).

Is there any smart way to ensure my client communicates with the real server and not an imposter?

I created a new Quarkus app using the following command:

I want to use firebase auth for my android and ios applications with custom backend. So I need some way of authentication for api calls from mobile apps to the backend.

I was able to find following guide in firebase documentation which suggests to sent firebase id token to my backend and validate it there with firebase Admin SDK. https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/admin/verify-id-tokens

But this approach does not seem to be a security best practice. For example here https://auth0.com/blog/why-should-use-accesstokens-to-secure-an-api/ it is said that for API access one should use access tokens rather than id tokens.

Are there any good pattern for using firebase auth with my backend?

I'm using express-validator to find out if certain user inputs match specific keywords. If any of the inputs are invalid, a POST request to my db should not be made. If all of the inputs pass, then the POST should go through. The user should be re-directed to a /submitted view when the inputs are valid or invalid.

When none of the inputs are valid, the POST is not made and the db is not updated (which is good, since I don't want the db to have invalid data), but the issue is that the page hangs and never reloads (has to be done manually).

I have an if/else statement below that says what should be done if the data is invalid. The console says that applicant.end() and res.end() are not functions. Is there something else that I can write that'll "stop" the request but do the redirect?

I have bunch of GRPC microservices and they are using self signed certs. I add authentication info to the GRPC channel which is then used to identify endpoints and provide right services.

Now I want migrate to Istio mTLS.

In phase one, I got Istio to BYPASS all GRPC connections and my services works as it is now.

In Phase two, I want to hand off TLS to Istio, but I am stuck on how to pass the authentication information to GRPC?

How do you handle auth in Istio mTLS setup?

GRPC can support other authentication mechanisms Has anyone used this to inject Istio auth info to GRPC? any other suggestions on how you implemented this in your setup

I am using go-lang just in case if this can be useful to provide any additional information.

Thanks
