Spring Boot + Spring Security + JWT from scratch - Java Brains

[@Java.Brains]

Important note: In the video, I provide the JWT secret as a constant variable in the Java class. As you might imagine, please don't do that in a real application! It's not a good idea to check in passwords / secret keys in your code. You should get that from a setting / property file that's in a more secure location and not in your source code repository. (Thanks to Olivier for pointing this out in the comments)

[@sohel_naikawadi]

Thanks for the tutorial. You have some unnecessary lines in your code. in Jwtrequestfilter.class--->if "&& SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication() == null" is useless as well as "usernamePasswordAuthenticationToken.setDetails(new WebAuthenticationDetailsSource().buildDetails(request));" has no use as we are not using session.

[@abhishaysrivastava6518]

AuthenticationManager bean already defined in config class. But still getting error

[@satyajitm93]

If spring security itself can do authorisation, then what JWT is doing ? Is JWT used to make application more secure ?

[@satyajitm93]

Priyak Dey Thank you so much .

[@fazilkhan4085]

Why are you requesting using header Authorization Bearer... As you are using shared secret key, should u use Authorization Basic

[@igorzuber1604]

The tutorial covers Spring Boot security pretty nicely, but I think there are some aspects to be pointed out here: - Some people wonder where the token itself is validated. This was not mentioned in the tutorial, but actually the *extractAllClaims* method is responsible for the validation. It throws exception while parsing claims if token signature is invalid (secret key mismatch) or token is expired. Thus *validate* method in JwtUtils has redundant check of expiration time. - The great advantage of JWT is that it is stateless, that means id doesn't have to be validated against queried data. This tutorial validates if data of user with provided userId matches the data of the same user fetched from somewhere else (usually from a database). This validation is redundant, since token has already been validated and we are ensured that provided userId is correct. There may be a need of fetching user while validating JWT token, but there is not in this scenario. - To sum up - *validate* method in JwtUtils can be securely removed

[@tianyuli3015]

omg thank you so much, sir. I have been scratching my hair off after watching the tutorial. I felt that the extract method already validate the signature, and that validateToken method will basically always return true, because the userDetail was fetched by the very same username extracted from the token, which means either no userDetail can be fetched or the username has to equal.

[@amitsharma9377]

One more thing is that the validation filter is always fetching the user details from database, which is not needed since that is the purpose of JWT payload. As of now there is a DB call to get user information for each incoming request which defeats the purpose of JWT tokens.

[@harshaanirudh5787]

Validation of jwt is required as jwt payload can be changed ,such as changing expiration and sending it. As it is simple base64 encoded . If any tampering of jwt occurs it will be verified with the signature. So the validation is required

[@igorzuber1604]

@@harshaanirudh5787 It is required, but extractAllClaims method already does that. So if payload is tampered, the signature won't match and extractAllClaims will throw expection.

[@Abhi_k007]

In HelloResource controller , you have changed the controller type from Spring streotype controller to RestController all of a sudden, Which could leads to confusion for beginners, Since @Controller will try to return a view which doesn't exist, and you haven't used @ResponseBody along with Controller to support a simple text as response. Maintain same coding across the video, if you have made correction point it out.

[@shashanksharma15]

Any tutorial with angular and spring boot

[@thienquangphan7195]

It's a very good sample for the beginner. It's not too much but can show a brief description of the way Spring Security and JWT work with each other. Viewers need to watch slowly and take note of important points: - Security configuration - Adding and registry new filter among Spring Security filters that are provided by Spring Security - SessionCreationPolicy - Implementing UserDetailsService service - SecurityContextHolder, this manages authentication object that operates throughout security validation process

[@smaug9833]

peculiar thing I noticed: if you create jwt with just the userName, it will introduce a vulnerability. When a single account has been logged into from two clients, if one of them changes his password, the other client's jwt will still be valid until he logs out. To invalidate the other client's jwt right away, create the jwt with both the userName and password, like: userName_password.

[@adarshverma3372]

First of all excellent explanation by Koushik but to those who didn't understand the concept of extractClaim() method extractCliam() methods takes a functional interface function as an argument which is of type (Represents a function that accepts one argument and produces a result.) so from the extractUsername() method we are calling the extractClaim(token, Claims::getSubject()); // done using tthe mehtod reference(Done as in calling the static methods) as the second argument can be wriiten as (Claims)-> Calims.getusername() as we are saying the claimsResolver that it goona recieves an object of type Claims and from that object it needs to get the string which is Claims.getUsername() same is done using extractExpiration()

[@mohamedhakkeem5414]

Hi Java Brain, 1)In real time project what kind of signature algorithm would be used. 2)In real time project generally how much time they will set for token expiry? 3)So all these JWT configuration and setting are likely one time activity?

[@wardg4916]

Thank you very much for your awersome videos, but I have something to say In previus videos you said JWT token is used so we do not need database to validate them, incase of microservices..etc also in JWT Filter in this step I think loading the user details from database is not neccesery.. UserDetails userDetails = authService.loadUserByUsername(email); if (jwtUtil.validateToken(jwt, userDetails)) { We can validate the JWT using the signature only, and thats enough right? also we can add other user details to the claims and retrive them, in case I do not want to use DB to validate JWT but I want more details about the user. Please correct me If I'm wrong Thank you

[@win.ngo.55]

Yes, whenever "Jwts.parser().setSigningKey(jwtSecret).parseClaimsJws(authToken);" is called, the token is validated internally (you can see some exceptions are declared in the method signature). So I think this is enough to validate a token: public boolean validateToken(String token) { try { Jwts.parser().setSigningKey(secretKey).parseClaimsJws(token); return true; } catch (JwtException | IllegalArgumentException e) { // handle } } Moreover, UNLESS you want every request to have newest/realtime data from the DB (e.g: role change, active/inactive...), you can build the Authentication object based on the token itself and pass it to SecurityContextHolder.getContext().setAuthentication() so that you can avoid querying to DB (i.e calling loadUserByUsername()).

[@OLApplin]

Please, for those who watch this, you must make sure to not hard code any sensitive information (like passwords, or private key) in your code. This is a very dangerous practice and a vulnerabilitym even more if you use Git and commit code (even if you erase hard coded infos, it is always possible to go back and find it with Git). The use of environment variables is one of the solution to solve the problem.

The refresh token is the same. You have to create a new endpoint with GET method to handle that task. But we need to validate the current token, before process the refreshing request. And the most important thing to be noticed in case of when user changes his/her password before the refreshing request is sent to server.

So basically, whatever information was present in the token is of no importance since we are using only the userDetails that the server is pulling from the database.

Thanks for the tutorial dude! One thing, though. Your jwt validation actually only checks username and expiration... if I tamper the token it will still get validated, right?

I'm not sure, but when we set context in JwtRequestFilter shouldn't we create an empty one? Reference says: It is important to create a new SecurityContext instance instead of using SecurityContextHolder.getContext().setAuthentication(authentication) to avoid race conditions across multiple threads. Example: SecurityContext context = SecurityContextHolder.createEmptyContext(); UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken authentication= new UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken( userDetails, null, userDetails.getAuthorities()); context.setAuthentication(authentication); SecurityContextHolder.setContext(context);
