I started working in a project where the payment for eway is already configured in this project. I cannot figure out from the eway website on how to configure it to make test payments.
The current settings in web.config are:
<appSettings>
<add key="PaymentGateway" value="2"/>
<add key="EwayRedirectUrl" value="http://localhost:54053/#/Memberships"/>
<add key="EwayApiKey" value="60CF3Ce97nRXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"/>
<add key="EwayPassword" value="API-P4ss"/>
<add key="EwayEnvironment" value="Sandbox"/>
</appSettings>
The following doc in the eway website says that using this Test Credit Card: 4444333322221111 I can make dummy payments.
Am I unable to make test payments because it is a live gateway and not a test gateway? Can someone help me make test payments please?
EDIT:
I have some javascript code that encrypts the card and then passes to the controller. Is the problem here? Maybe the encryption isn't done properly?
function (card, membershipId, autoRenew) {
var encryptCard = angular.copy(card);
if (card !== null && !encryptCard.Token) {
encryptCard.CardNumber = eCrypt.encryptValue(card.CardNumber, key);
encryptCard.Cvv = eCrypt.encryptValue(card.Cvv, key);
}
var defer = $q.defer();
$http.post("/Inbox/ProcessMembershipRenewPayment", parseJsonObj({ card: encryptCard, membershipId: membershipId, autoRenew:autoRenew }))
.then(
function(response) {
var data = response.data;
if (data.Status) {
defer.resolve(data.Message);
} else {
defer.reject(data.Message);
}
},
function(err) {
defer.reject(err);
}
);
return defer.promise;
}
I am getting some squiggly lines under 'eCrypt' saying: Use of implicitly declared variable 'eCrypt'.
In the cshtml I included the link to the js file:
<script src="https://secure.ewaypayments.com/scripts/eCrypt.js"></script>
In case encryption is not the problem, this is the method that requests payment to eway:
private IRapidClient _ewayClient;
private readonly string _rapidEndpoint = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["EwayEnvironment"];
public void Initialize(string apiKey, string password)
{
_ewayClient = RapidClientFactory.NewRapidClient(apiKey, password, _rapidEndpoint);
}
public EwayPaymentResponse Pay(EwayPaymentRequest request)
{
var ewayResponse = new EwayPaymentResponse {Status = false};
try
{
Transaction transaction = new Transaction
{
Customer = new Customer()
{
CardDetails = new CardDetails()
{
Name = request.Customer.CardDetails.Name,
Number = request.Customer.CardDetails.Number,
ExpiryMonth = request.Customer.CardDetails.ExpiryMonth,
ExpiryYear = request.Customer.CardDetails.ExpiryYear,
CVN = request.Customer.CardDetails.CVN
}
},
PaymentDetails = new PaymentDetails()
{
CurrencyCode = "AUD",
TotalAmount = Convert.ToInt32(request.Payment.TotalAmount * 100)
},
TransactionType = TransactionTypes.Purchase,
RedirectURL = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["EwayRedirectUrl"],
};
CreateTransactionResponse response = _ewayClient.Create(PaymentMethod.Direct, transaction);
if (response.TransactionStatus.Status != null && (bool) response.TransactionStatus.Status)
{
ewayResponse.Status = true;
return ewayResponse;
}
if (response.Errors != null)
{
foreach (var errorCode in response.Errors)
{
ewayResponse.ErrorMessages.Add(RapidClientFactory.UserDisplayMessage(errorCode, "EN"));
}
return ewayResponse;
}
ewayResponse.ErrorMessages.Add("Invalid credit card information.");
return ewayResponse;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
ewayResponse.ErrorMessages.Add(e.Message);
return ewayResponse;
}
}
The payment method here is direct.

I have a controller form application and the security team they said there is a vulnerability you can put any user_id fom postman inside the controller like this
ForgotPassword/user_id
how I can remove this vulnerability check the code below:
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public JsonResult ForgotPassword(string emailId)
{
var helper = new Helper.Helper();
List<SqlParameter> args = new List<SqlParameter>();
args.Add(new SqlParameter("#Pin_email_id", emailId));
var req_resp = new Dictionary<string, object>();
try
{
using (DataSet dataset = helper.ExecuteSqlQuery("Web_Forgot_Password", args))
{
if (dataset != null && dataset.Tables.Count > 0 && dataset.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
{
if (dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Status"].ToString() == "Success")
{
req_resp["status"] = true;
req_resp["message"] = dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Description"].ToString();
req_resp["code"] = dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Code"].ToString();
string password = dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["user_password"].ToString();
SendForgotMail(emailId, dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["user_name"].ToString(), helper.Decrypt(password), dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["employee"].ToString());
return Json(req_resp);
}
else
{
req_resp["status"] = false;
req_resp["message"] = dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Description"].ToString();
req_resp["code"] = dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Code"].ToString();
return Json(req_resp);
}
}
else
{
req_resp["status"] = false;
req_resp["message"] = "Request Failed";
req_resp["code"] = "1005";
return Json(req_resp);
}
}
}
catch
{
var response = new
{
status = false,
message = "Request failed",
code = "1005"
};
return Json(response);
}
}
Well normally you store only password hashes in your database, which are not decryptable. Watching helper.Decrypt(password) in your code and sending the original password as a plain text in email is something painful. Normally I would just send a password reset link which can be used only once.
I checked the SqlParemater docs, it is added as a String value the way you use it, so it is not SQL injectable. Without the exact SQL I cannot tell much. I think they meant that it is SQL injectable, but then they should send evidence at least.
I have created a library project for writing logs into ApplicationInsights as well as table storage and is being consumed my different other WebAPI projects. But due to some reason the logs are not getting logged in Application Insights but it works with table storage.
private void AddTelemetryTarget(string instrumentationKey, LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel minLogLevel, LoggingConfiguration config)
{
try
{ ConfigurationItemFactory.Default.Targets.RegisterDefinition("ApplicationInsightsTarget", typeof(ApplicationInsightsTarget));
ApplicationInsightsTarget aiTarget = new ApplicationInsightsTarget();
aiTarget.InstrumentationKey = instrumentationKey;
aiTarget.Name = "ai";
var wrapper = new AsyncTargetWrapper(aiTarget, 5000, AsyncTargetWrapperOverflowAction.Grow);
config.AddTarget("TelemetryAsyncWrapper", wrapper);
//Applying logging rules.
LoggingRule rule = new LoggingRule("*", ConvertLogType(minLogLevel), aiTarget);
config.LoggingRules.Add(rule);
}
catch
{ }
}
private LogLevel ConvertLogType(LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel type)
{
switch (type)
{
case LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel.Error: return LogLevel.Error;
case LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel.Info: return LogLevel.Info;
case LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel.Warn: return LogLevel.Warn;
default: return LogLevel.Trace;
}
}
public async Task Log(string message, LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel type, Dictionary<string, string> customParams, Exception ex = null, bool isPayload = false)
{
LogEventInfo eventInfo = PopulateEventInfo(message, type, customParams, ex);
if (!isPayload)
{
_logger.Log(eventInfo);
}
else
{
_payloadLogger.Log(eventInfo);
}
}
private LogEventInfo PopulateEventInfo(string message, LoggerEnumerations.LogLevel type, Dictionary<string, string> customParams, Exception ex = null)
{
LogEventInfo eventInfo = new LogEventInfo();
eventInfo.Level = ConvertLogType(type);
eventInfo.Message = message;
eventInfo.LoggerName = this.GetType().ToString();
if (ex != null)
{
eventInfo.Exception = ex;
}
else if (eventInfo.Level == LogLevel.Error)
{
eventInfo.Exception = new Exception(message);
}
//Adding custom properties to LogEventInfo to display in Application insight
if (customParams != null)
{
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, string> param in customParams)
{
eventInfo.Properties.Add(param.Key, param.Value);
}
}
return eventInfo;
}
Version of Nuget packages are
Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.NLogTarget : 2.13.1
NLog : 4.6.8
Thanks
I added Application Insights as Connected Services and I removed the Instrumentation Key from ApplicationInsights.config file and when registering the nlog target I used instrumentation key from my web.config file and it started working.
I have a quite simple ASP.NET project that has the Azure AD Authentication installed.
It uses the CookieAuthentication by default and uses the Azure AD SSO to login.
So what I can't understand is that if I login and left the page opened for 1 hour - which is the Azure AD access token expiration time, it just stops working.
To avoid this, I tried to update the access token silently before it is expired but failed.
Not even sure why the app stops working as it's using Cookie for authorization and it uses the Azure AD login only for Authentication.
app.UseCookieAuthentication(new CookieAuthenticationOptions
{
Provider = new CookieAuthenticationProvider
{
OnValidateIdentity = (context) =>
{
var threshold = DateTime.UtcNow.AddMinutes(55);
if (context.Properties.ExpiresUtc < threshold)
{
var authManager = context.OwinContext.Authentication;
string signedInUserID = context.Identity.FindFirst(System.IdentityModel.Claims.ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier).Value;
if (authContext == null)
authContext = new AuthenticationContext(Authority, new ADALTokenCache(signedInUserID));
ClientCredential credential = new ClientCredential(clientId, appKey);
try
{
var result = authContext.AcquireTokenSilentAsync(graphResourceId, clientId).Result;
}
catch (AggregateException ex)
{
if (ex.InnerException.GetType() == typeof(AdalSilentTokenAcquisitionException))
{
var result = authContext.AcquireTokenAsync(graphResourceId, credential).Result;
}
}
}
return Task.FromResult(0);
}
}
});
This is the ADALTokenCache.
public class ADALTokenCache : TokenCache
{
private ApplicationDbContext db = new ApplicationDbContext();
private string userId;
private UserTokenCache Cache;
public ADALTokenCache(string signedInUserId)
{
// Associate the cache to the current user of the web app
userId = signedInUserId;
this.AfterAccess = AfterAccessNotification;
this.BeforeAccess = BeforeAccessNotification;
this.BeforeWrite = BeforeWriteNotification;
// Look up the entry in the database
Cache = db.UserTokenCacheList.FirstOrDefault(c => c.webUserUniqueId == userId);
// Place the entry in memory
this.Deserialize((Cache == null) ? null : MachineKey.Unprotect(Cache.cacheBits,"ADALCache"));
}
// Clean up the database
public override void Clear()
{
base.Clear();
var cacheEntry = db.UserTokenCacheList.FirstOrDefault(c => c.webUserUniqueId == userId);
db.UserTokenCacheList.Remove(cacheEntry);
db.SaveChanges();
}
// Notification raised before ADAL accesses the cache.
// This is your chance to update the in-memory copy from the DB, if the in-memory version is stale
void BeforeAccessNotification(TokenCacheNotificationArgs args)
{
if (Cache == null)
{
// First time access
Cache = db.UserTokenCacheList.FirstOrDefault(c => c.webUserUniqueId == userId);
}
else
{
// Retrieve last write from the DB
var status = from e in db.UserTokenCacheList
where (e.webUserUniqueId == userId)
select new
{
LastWrite = e.LastWrite
};
// If the in-memory copy is older than the persistent copy
if (status.First().LastWrite > Cache.LastWrite)
{
// Read from from storage, update in-memory copy
Cache = db.UserTokenCacheList.FirstOrDefault(c => c.webUserUniqueId == userId);
}
}
this.Deserialize((Cache == null) ? null : MachineKey.Unprotect(Cache.cacheBits, "ADALCache"));
}
// Notification raised after ADAL accessed the cache.
// If the HasStateChanged flag is set, ADAL changed the content of the cache
void AfterAccessNotification(TokenCacheNotificationArgs args)
{
// If state changed
if (this.HasStateChanged)
{
Cache = new UserTokenCache
{
webUserUniqueId = userId,
cacheBits = MachineKey.Protect(this.Serialize(), "ADALCache"),
LastWrite = DateTime.Now
};
// Update the DB and the lastwrite
db.Entry(Cache).State = Cache.UserTokenCacheId == 0 ? EntityState.Added : EntityState.Modified;
db.SaveChanges();
this.HasStateChanged = false;
}
}
void BeforeWriteNotification(TokenCacheNotificationArgs args)
{
// If you want to ensure that no concurrent write take place, use this notification to place a lock on the entry
var t = args;
}
public override void DeleteItem(TokenCacheItem item)
{
base.DeleteItem(item);
}
}
This is what I tried, but not working.
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance.
I am implementing CoinPayments IPN in my application and I have trouble with passing data to the method that take their Callback. I have tried like everything I could find: TempData, SessionVariables, tried to implement it somewhere in forms and maybe Request it but that didn`t work for me. So I also tried to implement it with Global static variables. And it worked! But then came another issue: if more than one user were to buy something from website at the same time or even in between any callbacks their data will get mixed. So here I am, trying again to make Session Variables work and have no clue why they are not working as I used them before. Probably what I can think of is that because its a callback from CoinPayments and I handle something wrongly.
Here is the code I have right now: Tho I tried different variations like implementing Session in Get Payment method. Now I ended up with it and it still comes out as null in POST METHOD.
Class for handling Session Variables:
public static class MyGlobalVariables
{
public static int TokenChoice
{
get
{
if (System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["TokenChoice"] == null)
{
return -1;
}
else
{
return (int)System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["TokenChoice"];
}
}
set
{
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["TokenChoice"] = value;
}
}
public static int PaymentChoice
{
get
{
if (System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["PaymentChoice"] == null)
{
return -1;
}
else
{
return (int)System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["PaymentChoice"];
}
}
set
{
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["PaymentChoice"] = value;
}
}
public static string CurrentUser
{
get
{
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["CurrentUser"] = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
return (string)System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["CurrentUser"];
}
}
}
Class that returns view where you click on CoinPayments button:
public ActionResult Payment(int tokenChoice, int paymentChoice)
{
ViewBag.Payment = paymentChoice;
MyGlobalVariables.PaymentChoice = paymentChoice;
MyGlobalVariables.TokenChoice = tokenChoice;
return View();
}
Callback class that handles Callback from CoinPayments:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Payment()
{
NameValueCollection nvc = Request.Form;
var merchant_id = id;
var ipn_secret = secret;
var order_total = MyGlobalVariables.PaymentChoice;
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(nvc["ipn_mode"]) || nvc["ipn_mode"] != "hmac")
{
Trace.WriteLine("IPN Mode is not HMAC");
return View();
}
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(HTTP_HMAC))
{
Trace.WriteLine("No HMAC signature sent");
return View();
}
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(nvc["merchant"]) || nvc["merchant"] != merchant_id.Trim())
{
Trace.WriteLine("No or incorrect Merchant ID passed");
return View();
}
//var hmac = hash_hmac("sha512", request, ipn_secret.Trim());
var txn_id = nvc["txn_id"];
var item_name = nvc["item_name"];
var item_number = nvc["item_number"];
var amount1 = nvc["amount1"];
var amount2 = float.Parse(nvc["amount2"], CultureInfo.InvariantCulture.NumberFormat);
var currency1 = nvc["currency1"];
var currency2 = nvc["currency2"];
var status = Convert.ToInt32(nvc["status"]);
var status_text = nvc["status_text"];
Trace.WriteLine(status);
if (currency1 != "USD") {
Trace.WriteLine("Original currency mismatch!");
return View();
}
if (Convert.ToInt32(amount1) < Convert.ToInt32(order_total))
{
Trace.WriteLine("Amount is less than order total!");
return View();
}
if (status >= 100 || status == 2) {
using (MyDatabaseEntities1 dc = new MyDatabaseEntities1())
{
var account = dc.Users.Where(a => a.Username == MyGlobalVariables.CurrentUser).FirstOrDefault();
if (account != null && account.Paid == 0)
{
Trace.WriteLine("Payment Completed");
Trace.WriteLine("Tokens to add: " + MyGlobalVariables.TokenChoice);
account.Tokens += MyGlobalVariables.TokenChoice;
account.Paid = 1;
dc.Configuration.ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;
dc.SaveChanges();
}
}
} else if (status < 0)
{
Trace.WriteLine(
"payment error, this is usually final but payments will sometimes be reopened if there was no exchange rate conversion or with seller consent");
} else {
using (MyDatabaseEntities1 dc = new MyDatabaseEntities1())
{
var account = dc.Users.Where(a => a.Username == MyGlobalVariables.CurrentUser).FirstOrDefault();
if (account != null)
{
account.Paid = 0;
dc.Configuration.ValidateOnSaveEnabled = false;
dc.SaveChanges();
}
}
Trace.WriteLine("Payment is pending");
}
return View();
}
As you can see there are only 3 variables I need to handle.
Also someone might ask why I use Session Variable for Current.User?
Well for some reason Callback method can not read Current.User as it return null. And well... nothing really changed as for now.
If you have ever experienced something like that or can find an issue I would be so thankful since I wasted already over 2 days on that issue.
EDIT:
After some testing I found out variables works fine if I run Post method on my own. So the problem is with handling callback from CoinPayments. Is there a specific way to deal with this?
I have a web api call that I recently added to my app. I returns a complete list of all countries, states and cities in the app (currently 486 rows) I perform this call when all of the reference data for my application loads (I have a base loading page and call the function in my startup class to load all the data there). The challenge is that the call to get all my countries.... hangs and eventually I get "The operation was canceled" error. If I modify my stored procedure that selects the data from the database on the server to only return say 20 rows, it runs fine. Any suggestions?
Below is the code from the startup class:

So after much time, I believe I figured out what the problem is. The problem started to manifest itself again with smaller amounts of data and I could not figure out why. The problem appeared. The issue appears to be the IP address I was using. (I was using the IP address of the actual laptop I was hosting both the App and WebAPIs on.) It appears you have to use one of the other network adaptors for the emulator to have this work reliably.
Here are the steps I used to resolved this:
I launched my Windows 10 mobile emulator.
Click on the >> (Tools) icon in the tool bar of the emulator.
Click on the Network tab of the Additional Tools window.
Look in the list for the network adaptor labeled Desktop Adaptor #1 and copy the IP address.
Edit the Applicationhost.config file in the folder of the WebAPI project.
Find the entry in the file for site name="XXXXX" where XXXXX is the name of the Visual Studio project you are hosting your WebAPIs in.
Within the section of the entry for your WebAPI project, add a binding for the IP address you copied from in step 4. It should look something like this:
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation="*:56952:169.254.69.220" />
Where 56952 is the port my IIS Express is hosting the WebAPIs on and 169.254.69.220 is the IP address I copied from step 4. After adding this, I was able to connect to locally hosted WebAPIs in IIS Express.
Hope this helps.
