Security :: Login Information In External Hyperlink?
Mar 3, 2011
I have a website that is associated with a PC Application.
The website uses forms security to restrict access to the Information on the PC Application to users with a specific role.
Is it possible to have a link to a page that has sufficient information contained in it to automatically log in and display a page in a restricted area?
I am thinking of something like the confirmation emails you get when registering with a website. They often have encrypted text as part of the link and automatically log you back in to the website when clicked.

I have created a login form through VS 2008 using C#. There are 5 different aspx pages in my application.
1)Default.aspx: It contains only a hyperlink to direct the user to login.aspx page.
2)Login.aspx: This page has texbox for Username and Password, sign in button, textbox for displaying error and hyperlink (Create an Account) if the user does not created an account yet.
Here is Login.aspx code:
[Code]....
Now, I want to do following with my application.
If the user already has an account, he can put his username and password and click on the sign in button. If the username is existed in databse, application should compare the user input with database and if both are matched then the application should redirect the user to "welcome.aspx". If username does not exist it should show that Username does not exist.

I have a third party company that we need to allow they users to pass into our website without loging in. TO keep it easy I was thinking of having them post to a custom login page on my site.
So their code would be something like this:
[Code]....
My landing/login page would do soemthign liek this.
[Code]....
My question is whether there are any security issues when using this kind of method? I am not sure yet what their site is written in. I figured that they could figure out how to do the post as long as I have the landing page for them and there is no security issues.

It has been a while since I've built an entire ASP.NET web application from the ground up but I'm about to jump in again. I've built many individual pages, controls, web parts, etc. recently, but nothting 'soup to nuts' for a couple of years. My question is in regards to login security control. I do not want to use the built in ASP.NET Memberhip functionality for various reasons and already have custom code that authenticates the user, controls passwords, login attempts, etc. I am really concerned though about how to validate that the user is logged in (and the best way to do it). For instance, right now I use a Base page that all of my .aspx pages inherit from. In the OnInit() method, it executes code which includes:
[Code]....
I set the Session["LoggedIn"] object to "true" after the user has successfully been authenticated at the Login.aspx page. So, when a user attempts to access any page in the application, if that Session object isn't true, they will be redirected (you can't visit any page without being logged in). This all works great, but I'm thinking I need something more and that brings me here. First, do I need more? Is this enough? I was thinking about creating a cookie with a GUID value and the SessionID (both encrypted perhaps?) and adding that to my Base page so it checks both the current Session["LoggedIn"] value
and the values in the cookie.

I have experimented with coding such as follows:
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Data
Partial Class Test01
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Dim T01String As String
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim WRequest As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create([URL])
Dim WResponse As WebResponse = WRequest.GetResponse()
Dim WStream As Stream = WResponse.GetResponseStream()
Dim WStreamReader As New StreamReader(WStream, Encoding.UTF8)
T01Location = WStreamReader.ReadToEnd()
WResponse.Close()
WStreamReader.Close()
End Sub
End Class
In this example, a stream of data is captured from the Wikipedia website. I am looking for resources/options to assist in (a) returning specific information from a website based on criterion to be stated in the code (rather than the entire unformatted HTML data, for example), and (b) providing a variable value for an entry required for a particular website, then returning the stream based on the result (example: allowing the entry of an address as a variable value and then returning the zip code from the USPS website). Basically, the idea is to find the correct code configuration for allowing "wildcards" when returning a stream of data from a specific website.

I've set up a system with forms based authentication and using the asp:Login control. When I put in an invalid password I get the approriate invalid password message. However when I put in a valid password, it does nothing...just returns to the login page again. I'm triple checked the login info. There is no error message, and the invalid attempts counter doesn't increment. When I put a break point in the Login_LoggedIn event of the Login form, it hits it, but User.Identity.IsAuthenticated is false. I'm not 100% sure it should be true at this point, as I'm pretty new to .NET but it seems kind of odd.
My user database is stored in a sqlserver 2005 db that already existed. I've added a new connection for it.In the authorization I have
<authorization>deny
users="?"/><authorization>

Platform: ASP.NET 4.0, VS 2010My scenario is thishave the credentials of an external websiteI do a couple of GET/POST to scrape some data off of it
Depending on something that I find, I want to give my user a hyperlink that, when clicked, takes him 3 levels deep into the target website beyond the login pageOf course, I could just provide a URL to the top level on the target site, and he would click through to get there. But is there a way, via ASP.NET, that I can programmatically login and then open the page on a separate window/tab?

After reading a book I brought on ASP.net I fould the login controls to be very nice.I have set it up in my application so that customers can login using the standaard login controls and things were going smooth.But in my schema for my application I also have a table for customers (firstName, LastName, DOB, etc).And of course the customersID is used as a foreign key to tables such as Orders, Addresses (Home, Work, Postal).
The thing is how to i associate an asp.net login to a customer name in my table so that the CustomerID can be used through the application by knowing who is logged in.

I am using MVC 2 right out of the box, and the control gives the login and seems to work wonderfully. Now I am trying to find out the userId of the person who is logged in, so that i can retrieve information that is only needed for that one person. How do i find out how is logged in?

I have an application that has a user Login Control (provided by ASP). I am just now working with the integration of a dataBase created in MS visual studio 2010, to a developed website created in MS visual web developer 2010. My main goal is to create an authentication ticket that enables a user to be able to see a dataBase information only after that user has been successfully authenticated.
Up to now I'm able to see the dataBase when i run the website even if I'm not log-in, how i can create a home page that tells the user to log-in and once that user has successfully log-in it redirects the user to another page where the user can see the database and how I can add information to that dataBase only to specific members

I've had a look through the forums but I couln't find a concrete answer - I found some things that point me in the right direction but I would like to just ask for some clarification.My requirements are as follows:I have an external system, with an API that allows me to log in a user, and returns whether or not it was successful. This can only be done through the API, it can not be done with a direct DB connection.I want to create a site that can only be accessed by someone who has a login to this external system. Through the site they will only be able to log-in, there will be no possibility to change password etc, this is all done in the external system by an admin.I like the ASP membership system, and the way it works with anonymous and member views and would like to continue to use it. My question is, how do I do this? Do I create a custom membership provider that overrides all the methods of the usual membership provider? And how will the fact that all I actually want to do is allow the user to login affect things? There will be no ability to change details etc.

I'm calling an external Web service that requires a certificate to be passed. This works perfectly fine for a stand-alone Windows Forms application, but when I attempt to do the exact same thing through an ASP.NET Web Application, it throws the following error:
"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"
I found this MS article that describes what appears to be the exact issue I'm having, but it only applies to .NET 1.0:
[URL]
I'm using .NET 3.5, so surely it must be fixed by now!
I've attempted to change permissions on the certificate and fooled around with the app pool identity, but nothing seems to work.

I am using a thrid party website for a service. I transfer control and data to an external URL provided by the service provided. Once the service provider processes the data, it transfers the results and control back to a page in my website. I would like to allow only the service provided URL/page to redirect to my website. Is there any way to do this?
I am using hidden variables on a form and a button control with the PostBackUrl attribute set to the service provier URL, to submit the data and control to the external webpage.Will Service Variables help me achieve the above objective?
