Issue with jwt-bearer on-behalf-of grant in Azure AD - asp.net

So I have an Angular app that uses the adal-angular library to authenticate with an ASP.NET Core 2.0 Web API. The API then uses on-behalf-of flow to authenticate with another API using the users token like this MS article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/active-directory-protocols-oauth-on-behalf-of.
The issue I have is this is working fine in the DEV environment but I have now deployed a TST environment with separate App Registrations and I am receiving the following exception when I try and request the token using on-behalf-of
AADSTS240002: Input id_token cannot be used as 'urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer' grant.
The code I am using to request the token
public async Task<string> AcquireTokenAsync(string resource)
{
try
{
string accessToken = await _httpContextAccessor.HttpContext.GetTokenAsync(AuthenticationConstants.AccessToken);
var credentials = new ClientCredential(_azureOptions.ClientId, _azureOptions.ClientSecret);
var authContext = new AuthenticationContext($"{_azureOptions.Instance}{_azureOptions.TenantId}")
{
ExtendedLifeTimeEnabled = true
};
// On-behalf-of auth token request call
var authResult = await authContext.AcquireTokenAsync(
resource,
credentials,
new UserAssertion(accessToken));
return authResult.AccessToken;
}
catch (AdalServiceException asex)
{
_logger.LogError(asex, $"Instance: {_azureOptions.Instance} Tenant: {_azureOptions.TenantId} ClientId: {_azureOptions.ClientId}");
throw;
}
catch (System.Exception ex)
{
_logger.LogError(ex, ex.Message);
throw;
}
}
And I have used Fiddler and it looks like all the correct parameters are being passed.
Any help would be very much appreciated. I have set knownClientApplications on the second API and I have granted permissions on the Angular backend API to the second API.

For me, I got it to work by changing BOTH of the following to true:
oauth2AllowImplicitFlow
oauth2AllowIdTokenImplicitFlow
See here for more information.

According to your question and the error, it should be caused by that you angular app is not a Native(public) app.
For using this OBO flow with this Grant type, your client must be a public client not credential client.
If you want to register your client as a WebApp/API, you can refer to this Implementation:
Hope this helps!
Update
According to OP's comment, he/she got it working by changing oauth2AllowImplicitFlow from false to true.

We had this problem last week with one Azure Service Registration and not another. A review found that the token didn't return an AIO being returned. It turns out that the registration had redirects with wildcards (e.g., https://*.ngrok.io) and this is incompatible with the AcquireTokenOnBehalfOf function. I'm posting this here so a future person, probably me, will find it.

I was having problems even when oauth2AllowImplicitFlow and oauth2AllowIdTokenImplicitFlow were set to true. One of my Reply URLs had a wildcard in it. When the wildcard was removed, the issue was resolved.

Firebase service account to generate authentication token for client-side use with Google Apps Script

I am having difficulty using the FirebaseApp (a 3rd party API) to generate an authentication token that can be passed to a sidebar and used by the client to login and access my Firebase Database client-side.
I'm trying to use this tutorial but cannot get it working without using a database secret (which is being depreciated) in makeToken(). I'd prefer to use a service account as reflected in this tutorial. When I look at the difference between the tokens generated, the first 2 pieces separated by a '.' are identical, the last piece after the final '.' is different. The lengths are the same as well. eg:
//Example Generated by Database Secret: TWFuIGlzIGRpc3Rpbmd1aXNoZWQsIG5vdCBv.ZGdlLCBleGNlZWRzIHRoZSBzaG9ydCB2ZWhlbWVuY2Ugb2YgYW55IGNhcm5hbCBwbGVhc3VyZS4=.dGhlIG1pbmQsIHRoYXQgYnkgYSBwZXJzZXZlcmFuY2U=
//Example Generated by Service Account: TWFuIGlzIGRpc3Rpbmd1aXNoZWQsIG5vdCBv.ZGdlLCBleGNlZWRzIHRoZSBzaG9ydCB2ZWhlbWVuY2Ugb2YgYW55IGNhcm5hbCBwbGVhc3VyZS4=.IHNpbmd1bGFyIHBhc3Npb24gZnJvbSBvdGhlciBhbml=
I can generate the OAuth access token, pass it to FirebaseApp and generate an authentication token, but when it is passed client-side and I attempt to authenticate I get an error: Login Failed! Error: INVALID_TOKEN: Failed to validate MAC.
It seems like there is a lot of misinformation and conflicting information on how this should be done.
I have a getFirebaseService() function server-side that uses Apps Script OAuth2 Library to get an access token.
function getFirebaseService() {
return OAuth2.createService('Firebase')
// Set the endpoint URL.
.setTokenUrl('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token')
// Set the private key and issuer.
.setPrivateKey(fb_PRIVATE_KEY) //Service account private key
.setIssuer(fb_SERVICE_EMAIL) //Service account email
// Set the property store where authorized tokens should be persisted.
.setPropertyStore(PropertiesService.getScriptProperties())
// Set the scopes.
.setScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email https://www.googleapis.com/auth/firebase.database');
}
I have a makeToken() function server-side that gets an authentication token from Firebase using the OAuth access token. I am able to use the service.getAccessToken() OAuth token server-side to access and store data. So that works, I guess my issue is creating a client auth token that's more restrictive.
function makeToken(){
var service = getFirebaseService();
if (service.hasAccess()) {
return FirebaseApp.getDatabaseByUrl(fb_URL, service.getAccessToken()) //Database Secret Works: "AAslhfi3MYACCESSTOKEN2930hf03ah4th8" but is being depreciated.
.createAuthToken(Session.getActiveUser().getEmail());
} else {
Logger.log("makeToken: " + service.getLastError());
}
}
Then client-side, from the sidebar, I try to authenticate with a custom auth token retrieved server-side from makeToken().
var userAuthToken;
google.script.run.withSuccessHandler(function (requestAuthToken) {
userAuthToken = authenticateClient(requestAuthToken)
}).makeToken();
function authenticateClient(userRequestToken) {
var ref = new Firebase(fb_URL);
ref.authWithCustomToken(userRequestToken, function (error, authData) {
if (error) {
console.log("FB Login Failed!", error); //Error below come from here.
}
else {
console.log("FB Login Succeeded!", authData);
}
});
return ref.authData.auth;
}
This results in Login Failed! Error: INVALID_TOKEN: Failed to validate MAC..
Edit: Is it possible FirebaseApp is incorrectly generating the JWT Authentication Token?
Edit2: I think the above edit is unlikely as I attempted to use the GSApp library and had the same issue. It only seems to want the depreciated database secret, not a service account OAuth.
Alright, so after a very long day I figured it out. I'm going to lay out what I ended up using for libraries and what the issue was (see the third library). The main problem was essentially that the tutorial was outdated and no a lot of people use Firebase in apps script.
OAuth2 (Server-side)
Link
I didn't have to change anything here! It was working fine and never an issue.
FirebaseApp (Server-side)
Link
This is a nice library and I stuck with it because it worked well (once I got it there). I had to make a change to my original code that came from the tutorial I mentioned. My code ended up like this and worked:
if (service.hasAccess()) {
return FirebaseApp.getDatabaseByUrl(fb_URL, service.getAccessToken()) //get OAuth Token
.createAuthToken(Session.getEffectiveUser().getEmail(), null, serviceAccount.client_email, serviceAccount.private_key);
//... Added the null, private key, and service email parameters.
Firebase (Client-side)
Link
Alright, so this is where my main issue was -- The tutorial I followed for client-side setup was old. I had to upgrade the code on my own to use the new 3.x version:
<script src="https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/5.8.2/firebase.js"></script>
// Initialize Firebase
var config = {
apiKey: "<Web API Key>",
authDomain: "<Project ID>.firebaseapp.com",
databaseURL: "https://<DB URL>.firebaseio.com/"
};
firebase.initializeApp(config);
With this firebase instance I was able to update my original authenticateClient() method:
function authenticateClient(userRequestToken) {
firebase.auth().signInWithCustomToken(userRequestToken).catch(function(error) {
// Handle Errors here.
console.error("authClient: ", error.code, error.message);
});
return {
uid: firebase.auth().currentUser.uid,
metadata: {
lastSignInTime: firebase.auth().currentUser.lastSignInTime
}
};
}
That's it! I now have a firebase instance with a signed in user via JWT Custom Token! I came across a few people with similar issues an I hope this helps.

Xamarin Forms Open URI with token

I am building an Xamarin Forms PCL app and getting authenticated successfully with MSAL. My REST calls to graph API are all successful.
What I am trying to do is to open outlook or yammer or calendar in the browser using the token, i.e. without asking the users the re-authenticate.
Device.openUri always sends the users to an auth page, which makes sense since i am not sending the token with it.
Is this possible at all? If so, How can it be done?
thanks in advance !
Please add permission (to Yammer for example) on your App registration in Azure.
then define your array of scope as following
string[] Scopes = { "User.Read", "https://api.yammer.com/user_impersonation" };
then initiate your PublicClientApplication (PCA)
PCA = PublicClientApplicationBuilder.Create(ClientId).WithRedirectUri(ReturnUrl).Build();
after that as per the example from MSAL Team here you will need to add this code in your login button
try
{
IAccount firstAccount = accounts.FirstOrDefault();
authResult = await App.PCA.AcquireTokenSilent(App.Scopes, firstAccount)
.ExecuteAsync();
/* display info*/
}
catch (MsalUiRequiredException ex)
{
try
{
authResult = await App.PCA.AcquireTokenInteractive(App.Scopes, App.ParentWindow)
.ExecuteAsync();
/* display info*/
}
}
Now the Token you will get will work with Yammer as well
Hope this would help

Is Azure Function to Function authentication with MSI supported

I created 2 Azure Function Apps, both setup with Authentication/Authorization so an AD App was created for both. I would like to setup AD Auth from one Function to the other using MSI. I setup the client Function with Managed Service Identity using an ARM template. I created a simple test function to get the access token and it returns: Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication: Token response is not in the expected format.
try {
var azureServiceTokenProvider = new AzureServiceTokenProvider();
string accessToken = await azureServiceTokenProvider.GetAccessTokenAsync("https://myapp-registration-westus-dev.azurewebsites.net/");
log.Info($"Access Token: {accessToken}");
return req.CreateResponse(new {token = accessToken});
}
catch(Exception ex) {
log.Error("Error", ex);
throw;
}
Yes, there is a way to do this. I'll explain at a high level, and then add an item to the MSI documentation backlog to write a proper tutorial for this.
What you want to do is follow this Azure AD authentication sample, but only configure and implement the parts for the TodoListService: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/active-directory-dotnet-daemon.
The role of the TodoListDaemon will be played by a Managed Service Identity instead. So you don't need to register the TodoListDaemon app in Azure AD as instructed in the readme. Just enable MSI on your VM/App Service/Function.
In your code client side code, when you make the call to MSI (on a VM or in a Function or App Service), supply the TodoListService's AppID URI as the resource parameter. MSI will fetch a token for that audience for you.
The code in the TodoListService example will show you how to validate that token when you receive it.
So essentially, what you want to do is register an App in Azure AD, give it an AppID URI, and use that AppID URI as the resource parameter when you make the call to MSI. Then validate the token you receive at your service/receiving side.
Please check that the resource id used "https://myapp-registration-westus-dev.azurewebsites.net/" is accurate. I followed steps here to setup Azure AD authentication, and used the same code as you, and was able to get a token.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/app-service-mobile-how-to-configure-active-directory-authentication
You can also run this code to check the exact error returned by MSI. Do post the error if it does not help resolve the issue.
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Secret", Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("MSI_SECRET"));
var response = await client.GetAsync(String.Format("{0}/?resource={1}&api-version={2}", Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("MSI_ENDPOINT"), "https://myapp-registration-westus-dev.azurewebsites.net/", "2017-09-01"));
string msiResponse = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
log.Info($"MSI Response: {msiResponse}");
Update:-
This project.json file and run.csx file work for me. Note: The project.json refers to .NET 4.6, and as per Azure Functions documentation (link in comments), .NET 4.6 is the only supported version as of now. You do not need to upload the referenced assembly again. Most probably, incorrect manual upload of netstandard assembly, instead of net452 is causing your issue.
Only the .NET Framework 4.6 is supported, so make sure that your
project.json file specifies net46 as shown here. When you upload a
project.json file, the runtime gets the packages and automatically
adds references to the package assemblies. You don't need to add #r
"AssemblyName" directives. To use the types defined in the NuGet
packages, add the required using statements to your run.csx file.
project.json
{
"frameworks": {
"net46":{
"dependencies": {
"Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication": "1.0.0-preview"
}
}
}
}
run.csx
using Microsoft.Azure.Services.AppAuthentication;
public static async Task<HttpResponseMessage> Run(HttpRequestMessage req, TraceWriter log)
{
try
{
var azureServiceTokenProvider = new AzureServiceTokenProvider();
string accessToken = await azureServiceTokenProvider.GetAccessTokenAsync("https://vault.azure.net/");
log.Info($"Access Token: {accessToken}");
return req.CreateResponse(new {token = accessToken});
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
log.Error("Error", ex);
throw;
}

Google OpenId Connect migration: getting the openid_id in ASP.NET app

I've gone through plenty of Google documentation and SO Q/A's but with no luck. I wonder if anyone has yet succesfully used the OpenId to OpenId Connect migration as advised by Google.
This is what we used to do:
IAuthenticationResponse response = _openid.GetResponse();
if (response != null) {
//omitted for brevity
} else {
IAuthenticationRequest req = _openid.CreateRequest("https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id");
req.AddExtension(new ClaimsRequest
{
Country = DemandLevel.Request,
Email = DemandLevel.Request,
Gender = DemandLevel.Require,
PostalCode = DemandLevel.Require,
TimeZone = DemandLevel.Require
});
req.RedirectToProvider();
}
That was done using a version of DotNetOpenAuth that dates back a few years. Because Google has deprecated OpenId authentication we are trying to move over to OpenID Connect. The key question here is: can I somehow get my hands on the OpenId identifier (in the form of https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id?id=xyz) using the latest version of DotNetOpenAuth library or by any other means?
I have tried the latest DotNetOpenAuth and I can get it to work but it gives me a new Id (this was expected). I have also tried the Javascript way by using this URL (line breaks for readibility):
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?
scope=openid%20profile%20email
&openid.realm=http://localhost/palkkac/
&client_id=//here is the client id I created in google developer console
&redirect_uri=http://localhost/palkkac/someaspxpagehere
&response_type=id_token%20token
I checked (using Fiddler) the realm value that we currently send using the old DotNetOpenAuth code and it is http://localhost/palkkac/. I've put the same realm in the url above. The redirect url starts with the realm value but it is not entirely the same.
When I redirect to a simple page that parses the id_token and decrypts it (using the https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?id_token=zyx endpoint) I get this:
audience "client id is here"
email "mikkark#gmail.com"
expires_in 3597
issued_at //some numbers here
issued_to "client id is here"
issuer "accounts.google.com"
user_id "here is a sequence of numbers, my id in the OpenID Connect format that is"
verified_email true
So there is no sign of the openid_id field that you would expect to find here, though the whole structure of the message seems different from the Google docs, there is no field titled sub, for example. I wonder if I'm actually using the wrong endpoint, parameters or something?
What I have been reading is the migration guide: https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OpenID. I skipped step 2 because it seemed like an optional step. In step 3 the field openid_id is discussed and I would like to get that to work as a proof-of-concept first.
We registered the app on Google in order to create the client id etc. There are now also numerous allowed redirect url's as well as javascript origins listed in the Google dev console. Let me know if those might mess up the system and I'll post them here for review.
Side note: we are supposed to be moving our app behind a strictly firewalled environment where we would need to open ports in order to do this on the server side. Therefore, a client-side Javascript solution to access Google combined with HTTPS and redirecting the result to the server would be prefered (unless there are other issues that speak against this).
There are other resources on SO regarding this same issue, although all of these seem to use different libraries on the server side to do the job and nobody seems to have made any attempts at using Javascript:
Here (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22842475/migrating-google-openid-to-openid-connect-openid-id-does-not-match) I think the problem was resolved by setting the realm to be the same as in the old OpenId2.0 flow. This does not seem to work in my case.
over here the openid_id field is also missing, but the problem here is more about how to request the id_token from Google using libraries other than DotNetOpenAuth.
and in here there seem to be similar problems getting Google to return the openid_id field.
You can use the GoogleAuthentication owin middleware.
app.UseGoogleAuthentication(new GoogleOAuth2AuthenticationOptions
{
SignInAsAuthenticationType = signAs,
AuthenticationType = "Google",
ClientId = "xxx.apps.googleusercontent.com",
ClientSecret = "xx",
CallbackPath = PathString.FromUriComponent("/oauth2callback"),
Provider = new GoogleOAuth2AuthenticationProvider
{
OnApplyRedirect = context =>
{
context.Response.Redirect(context.RedirectUri + "&openid.realm=https://mydomain.com/"); // DotNetOpenAuth by default add a trailing slash, it must be exactly the same as before
}
},
BackchannelHttpHandler = new MyWebRequestHandler()
}
Then, add a new class called MyWebRequestHandler:
public class MyWebRequestHandler : WebRequestHandler
{
protected override async Task<HttpResponseMessage> SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
var httpResponse = await base.SendAsync(request, cancellationToken);
if (request.RequestUri == new Uri("https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me")) return httpResponse;
var configuration = await OpenIdConnectConfigurationRetriever.GetAsync("https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration", cancellationToken); // read the configuration to get the signing tokens (todo should be cached or hard coded)
// google is unclear as the openid_id is not in the access_token but in the id_token
// as the middleware dot not expose the id_token we need to parse it again
var jwt = httpResponse.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
JObject response = JObject.Parse(jwt);
string idToken = response.Value<string>((object)"id_token");
JwtSecurityTokenHandler tokenHandler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler();
try
{
SecurityToken token;
var claims = tokenHandler.ValidateToken(idToken, new TokenValidationParameters()
{
ValidAudience = "xxx.apps.googleusercontent.com",
ValidIssuer = "accounts.google.com",
IssuerSigningTokens = configuration.SigningTokens
}, out token);
var claim = claims.FindFirst("openid_id");
// claim.Value will contain the old openid identifier
if (claim != null) Debug.WriteLine(claim.Value);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Debug.WriteLine(ex.ToString());
}
return httpResponse;
}
}

DotNetOpenAuth Failing to work on Live Server

I worked on a sample application integrating OpenID into ASP.NET Web Forms. It works fine when hosted locally on my machine. However, when I uploaded the application to a live server, it started giving "Login Failed".
You can try a sample here: http://samples.bhaidar.net/openidsso
Any ideas?
Here is the source code that fails to process the OpenID response:
private void HandleOpenIdProviderResponse()
{
// Define a new instance of OpenIdRelyingParty class
using (var openid = new OpenIdRelyingParty())
{
// Get authentication response from OpenId Provider Create IAuthenticationResponse instance to be used
// to retreive the response from OP
var response = openid.GetResponse();
// No authentication request was sent
if (response == null) return;
switch (response.Status)
{
// If user was authenticated
case AuthenticationStatus.Authenticated:
// This is where you would look for any OpenID extension responses included
// in the authentication assertion.
var fetchResponse = response.GetExtension<FetchResponse>();
// Store the "Queried Fields"
Session["FetchResponse"] = fetchResponse;
// Use FormsAuthentication to tell ASP.NET that the user is now logged in,
// with the OpenID Claimed Identifier as their username.
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(response.ClaimedIdentifier, false);
break;
// User has cancelled the OpenID Dance
case AuthenticationStatus.Canceled:
this.loginCanceledLabel.Visible = true;
break;
// Authentication failed
case AuthenticationStatus.Failed:
this.loginFailedLabel.Visible = true;
break;
}
}
As Andrew suggested, check the exception. In my case, my production server's time & date were off and it wouldn't authenticate because the ticket expired.
Turn on logging on your live server and inspect them for additional diagnostics. It's most likely a firewall or permissions problem on your server that prevents outbound HTTP requests.
You may also find it useful to look at the IAuthenticationResponse.Exception property when an authentication fails for clues.
