How To Intercept An Authentication Request In Webform
Nov 30, 2010
I have user's who are losing their data because they sit on a page too long, then are asked to log back in. I want to do the following:
1) Instead of redirecting them to a login page, I want to cancel the current request and give the user a popup dialog box to login with.
2) When the login is successful, I want the user to be sent back to their form, with all data intact. (Even better if the request could go through without sending them back to that form, but this is optional).
How can I intercept these authentication requests, and present the user with a popup login?
I am using ASP.net forms authentication.

I would like to generate a 401 page if the user does not have the right permission.
The user requests a url and is redirected to the login page (I have deny all anonymous in web.config). The user logs in successfully and is redirected to the original url. However, upon permission check, it is determined that the user does not have the required permission, so I would like to generate a 401. But Forms Authentication always handles 401 and redirects the user to the login page.
To me, this isn't correct. The user has already authenticated, the user just does not have the proper authorization.
In other scenarios, such as in ajax or REST service scenario, I definitely do not want the login page - I need the proper 401 page.
So far, I've tried custom Authorize filter to return ViewResult with 401 but didn't work. I then tried a normal Action Filter, overriding OnActionExecuting, which did not work either.
What I was able to do is handle an event in global.asax, PostRequestHandlerExecute, and check for the permission then write out directly to response:
if (permissionDenied)
{
Context.Response.StatusCode = 401;
Context.Response.Clear();
Context.Response.Write("Permission Denied");
Context.Response.Flush();
[code]....
First of all, I'm not even sure if that is the right event or the place in the pipeline to do that.
Second, I want the 401 page to have a little more content. Preferably, it should be an aspx page with possibly the same master page as the rest of the site. That way, anyone browsing the site can see that the permission is denied but with the same look and feel, etc. but the ajax or service user will get the proper status code to act on.

This question seems to be pretty close to what I am looking for - I was able to setup tracing and I am looking at the log entries for my calls to the service.However I need to see the raw soap request with the data I am sending to the service and I see no way of doing that from the SvcTraceViewer (only log entries are shown but no data sent to the service) - am I just missing configuration?

I have a username textbox on a form, that has a few validation rules applied to it via the DataAnnotation attributes:
[Required(ErrorMessage = "FTP login is required")]
[StringLength(15, ErrorMessage = "Must be 15 characters or fewer")]
[RegularExpression(@"[a-zA-Z0-9]*", ErrorMessage = "Alpha-numeric characters only")]
public string FtpLogin { get; set; }
I also have a button next to this text box, that fires off a jQuery ajax request that checks for the existence of the username as follows:
<button onclick="check(this);return false;" id="FtpLoginCheck" name="FtpLoginCheck">Available?</button>
I'm looking for a way of tieing the two together, so that the client-side validation is performed before the call to the "check(this)" in the onclick event.
Edit: To be more clear, I need a way to inspect or trigger the client-side validation result of the textbox, when I click the unrelated button beside it.
Edit: I now have the button JS checking for $("form").validate().invalid, but not displaying the usual validation messages.

I'm not getting much help from the security group so I'm goign to post it here.Basically, I like to use Integrated Windows authentication so that I can authenticate all users who are at my company to access my web application in the browser. Each user resides on different domains and some are on the same.
So in order to authenticate them, the first thing I would do is to add them to my web root's security tab? I assume this is the virtual directory folder of which the web application (default.aspx, etc.) runs on the Windows 2003 web server? So I give each user a read security permission to access the folder? (which would mean that they can then access the web application?)
Is my understanding of this correct? Therefore, If i don't add users to the security tab of the virtual folder, then other users will be rejected by the browser?
Next, assuming I want them to log on as a Network Service user, and not impersonate any other user or impersonate as themselves such as LABob (domainuser) and instead just be NT AuthorityNetwork Service, I would set impersonation to false and I would also set anonymous access in IIS to false.I want to set up the fastest/easiest way to add users/remove users to access my application and be able to authenticate whether or not they can get on. Is this the right way to do it?

For every incoming request I need to perform custom authorization before allowing the file to be served.
(This is based on headers and contents of the querystring. If you're familiar with how Amazon S3 does rest authentication - exactly that).
I'd like to do this in the most perfomant way possible, which probably means as light a touch as possible, with IIS doing as much of the actual work as possible.
The service will need to handle GET requests, as well as writing new files coming in via POST/PUT requests.
The requests are for an abitrary file, so it could be:
GET http://storage.foo.com/bla/egg/foo18/something.bin
POST http://storage.foo.com/else.txt
Right now I've half implemented it using an IHttpHandler which handles all routes (with routes.RouteExistingFiles = true), but not sure if that's the best, or if I should be hooking into the lifecycle somewhere else?
I'm also interested in supporting partial downloads with the Range header. Using
response.TransmitFile(finalPath);
as I am now means I'll have to do that manually, which seems a bit lowlevel?

I am using .NET roles and membership model to manage user accounts in my system back-end.
If the request is come from within my web-app, I can authenticate through form.
But if the user is requesting from else where, maybe their own apps, how to I do authentication?
attach username and password (GET/POST) and then secure the line by SSL? is that what I should do?

Using Forms Authentication in an MVC application, is there a way to capture if a particular authentication request has failed? For instance, if I have a controller attributed [Authorize( Roles="Admin" )] And a user not within the Admin group attempts to use it, I'd like to do something with that on a case by case basis.Is this possible?

I have an existing asp.net mvc website that uses basic forms authentication. The site has a login page that posts back to a login action, which logs the user in via FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(). I am looking to add an api to the site, as an mvc2 area, where users would be authenticated based on a token passed as an http header. This area will consist of only json actions, so redirecting the user to a login page doesn't make sense. Instead, I want the users to just pass a token along with each request. That token is mapped to each user account and the user would be authenticated automatically.
I'm struggling with where to put this logic. At this point, the best choice seems to be adding the header lookup logic and authentication to the Global.asax in the Application_AuthenticateRequest method. I want to avoid needing to redirect the user after calling FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(), though. I want the login action to be transparent to them. Am I approaching this the wrong way? As a side note: Requiring a username/password for api requests is not possible, as the site has a mix of users. Some joined using OpenID while the rest joined with a username/password.

I am developing a facebook application in asp.net using the facebook developkit downloaded from [URL] website.
I am practicing a sample application in SDK 3.02samplesIFrame.
They have give an attribute called RequiredAttribute = true in IFrameMaster.Master.cs, which will access the basic information.
But I want to request for extended permission in the same screen itself.
For that i have used this.RequiredPermissions = new List() { Facebook.Schema.Enums.ExtendedPermissions.publish_stream, Facebook.Schema.Enums.ExtendedPermissions.offline_access };
But there is no use.
Is there any way to do it.

Suddenly, IIS 7.0 is redirecting every request for the root of any domain hosted on the box to ~/Account/Logon, which is our Forms Authentication redirect. Additionally, some JavaScript and image requests are being similarly redirected, but not other aspx pages.
EDIT: It turns out that something has gone wrong with the disk permissions. Can anyone point me to the way things are supposed to be in Windows Server 2008 for a standard ASP.Net installation? The disk permissions are out of whack now.

I am connecting to remote server for web service using ASP.NET 3.5 web site. something like, [URL]. Remote server is providing digest authentication to access the web service. I dont have access to modify authentication on the remote server but I have an windows account on that server. If I try to Access service WSDL through programming I get the following error:
The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized. Same web service if I try to access through browser, [URL], it asks for user name and password. Entered windows account user name and password, still getting error: You are not authorized to view this page, HTTP Error 401.1 - Unauthorized. How to pass the digest authentication credentials to the web service through visual studio or any other programmatic method?

I've recently enabled Digest Authentication on an intranet website/application I am creating for my company in ASP.NET.
The reason I have done so is because Windows Authentication seemed to only work for some users, and not for others. I could not figure out why nor do I know enough about IIS to try and trace the issue. After some trial and error, I found that digest authentication seemed to give me the behaviour that I wanted. That is: allow only users with a valid account on the domain to log in to the website with their credentials.
The problem now, is that Firefox (3+) seems to ask for the user to authenticate on every HTTP request sent to the server. This does not appear to occur in Internet Explorer (6+) or Chrome.
I've tried searching for solutions but I always arrive at dead-ends. I'll find a discussion about the issue, and every posted solution leads to a dead link...or it's on Experts Exchange and I don't have access to view to solution.
The issue appears to be related (from what I've read) to the way the different browsers send their authentication headers vs how IIS interprets them. I'm not sure what I can do to change this though? One of the solutions I had found mentioned writing an ISAPI filter to fix this, but of course the link to the finished filter was broken and I have no idea how to go about making one myself.
I've tried messing with the NTLM and other auth related strings in about:config to try and force Firefox to trust my server but that doesn't seem to work either.
From a few other sources I've read, it appears that everything should work if I switch back to Windows Authentication, but then I'm back at square one where the authentication would work only for some users and not others.
A solution for either problem would work for me, but I have very little information for the Windows Authentication issue. If someone could guide me through tracing the problem I'd gladly post more information for it as well.

I am using a server control on a single web.forms page. I have to use this control on a web.forms page since its a server control, although this is actually a MVC project. So I created a web.forms folder and put my new page in it. I then copy the example code from the signature control. I get the following error:
The base class includes the field 'ctrlSign', but its type (WebSignatureCapture.SignatureControl) is not compatible with the type of control (ASP.signaturecapture_signaturecontrol_ctlsignature_ascx).
I know the code works because if I removed the ID attribute from the server control, it no longer gives me this error and my control renders. But I need the attribute for the ID so I can perform is post event
I am using this signature control. Here's the web.forms code...
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Index.aspx.cs" Inherits="KahunaCentralTIDRevamp.SignatureCapture.Index" %> [code]....

I have a control used in our CMS and we don't have the source code for it, what I would like to do is change the rendered output of this control.
Now, I could have a check in my base Page class that checks if the control is being used on the page and then change the html that needs to be altered, but that seems a bit excessive for just 1 usage.
So is there any other way of changing the behaviour of the control without the source code? I'm thinking not other than the way described above.

I am working on a tool which audits access to existing web application. Existing app does not have any hooks in place, but my plan is to inject an IHttpModule by modifying web.config and log whatever I need to log during EndRequest event.
What I'm struggling with right now is: I cannot intercept what is application writing to an output stream. I need to know what output does the application send to the client. Originally, I hoped I could run a code in BeginRequest to replace HttpContext.Response.OutputStream with a stream of my own, which would be flushed to original stream during EndRequest, but the stream only has a get accessor, so I cannot replace it.
I could of course use reflection to assign to private member of HttpContext.
