= Reactive X.509 Authentication
Similar to xref:servlet/authentication/x509.adoc#servlet-x509[Servlet X.509 authentication], reactive x509 authentication filter allows extracting an authentication token from a certificate provided by a client.
Below is an example of a reactive x509 security configuration:
====
.Java
[source,java,role="primary"]
----
@Bean
public SecurityWebFilterChain securityWebFilterChain(ServerHttpSecurity http) {
http
.x509(withDefaults())
.authorizeExchange(exchanges -> exchanges
.anyExchange().permitAll()
);
return http.build();
}
----
.Kotlin
[source,kotlin,role="secondary"]
----
@Bean
fun securityWebFilterChain(http: ServerHttpSecurity): SecurityWebFilterChain {
return http {
x509 { }
authorizeExchange {
authorize(anyExchange, authenticated)
}
}
}
----
====
In the configuration above, when neither `principalExtractor` nor `authenticationManager` is provided defaults will be used. The default principal extractor is `SubjectDnX509PrincipalExtractor` which extracts the CN (common name) field from a certificate provided by a client. The default authentication manager is `ReactivePreAuthenticatedAuthenticationManager` which performs user account validation, checking that user account with a name extracted by `principalExtractor` exists and it is not locked, disabled, or expired.
The next example demonstrates how these defaults can be overridden.
====
.Java
[source,java,role="primary"]
----
@Bean
public SecurityWebFilterChain securityWebFilterChain(ServerHttpSecurity http) {
SubjectDnX509PrincipalExtractor principalExtractor =
new SubjectDnX509PrincipalExtractor();
principalExtractor.setSubjectDnRegex("OU=(.*?)(?:,|$)");
ReactiveAuthenticationManager authenticationManager = authentication -> {
authentication.setAuthenticated("Trusted Org Unit".equals(authentication.getName()));
return Mono.just(authentication);
};
http
.x509(x509 -> x509
.principalExtractor(principalExtractor)
.authenticationManager(authenticationManager)
)
.authorizeExchange(exchanges -> exchanges
.anyExchange().authenticated()
);
return http.build();
}
----
.Kotlin
[source,kotlin,role="secondary"]
----
@Bean
fun securityWebFilterChain(http: ServerHttpSecurity): SecurityWebFilterChain? {
val customPrincipalExtractor = SubjectDnX509PrincipalExtractor()
customPrincipalExtractor.setSubjectDnRegex("OU=(.*?)(?:,|$)")
val customAuthenticationManager = ReactiveAuthenticationManager { authentication: Authentication ->
authentication.isAuthenticated = "Trusted Org Unit" == authentication.name
Mono.just(authentication)
}
return http {
x509 {
principalExtractor = customPrincipalExtractor
authenticationManager = customAuthenticationManager
}
authorizeExchange {
authorize(anyExchange, authenticated)
}
}
}
----
====
In this example, a username is extracted from the OU field of a client certificate instead of CN, and account lookup using `ReactiveUserDetailsService` is not performed at all. Instead, if the provided certificate issued to an OU named "Trusted Org Unit", a request will be authenticated.
For an example of configuring Netty and `WebClient` or `curl` command-line tool to use mutual TLS and enable X.509 authentication, please refer to https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-security-samples/tree/main/servlet/java-configuration/authentication/x509.
