System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.Encrypt Returns Null?

Apr 21, 2010

I'm trying to encrypt some userData to create my own custom IPrincipal and IIdentity objects using Forms authentication - I've serialized an object representing my logged in user to Json and created my FormsAuthentication ticket like so:

string user_item = GetJsonOfLoggedinUser();/*get JSON representation of my logged in user*/

System.Web.Security.FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket =
new System.Web.Security.FormsAuthenticationTicket(1,
WAM.Utilities.SessionHelper.LoggedInEmployee.F_NAME + " "
+ WAM.Utilities.SessionHelper.LoggedInEmployee.L_NAME,
DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(30), false, user_item);
string encrypted_ticket = System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(ticket);
HttpCookie auth_cookie =
new HttpCookie(System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName, encrypted_ticket);
Response.Cookies.Add(auth_cookie);

However, the string encrypted_ticket is always null. Is there a limit on the length of the user_item string?

FormsAuthentication.GetRedirectUrl Always Returns The Default?

Nov 22, 2010

I have an ASP.NET MVC app and am using Forms auth. When going to a page that requires authentication, meaning there is an [Authorize] attribute on the controller action, it redirects the user to the login page with a return url like http://localhost/Login?ReturnUrl=/MyAuthorizedUrl.

This is how my config is setup:

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Login" timeout="2880" defaultUrl="~/" />
</authentication>

This is how I'm getting the redirect url:

var url = FormsAuthentication.GetRedirectUrl( model.Email, model.RememberMe );

This always returns the default url.

C# - FormsAuthentication AuthCookie Is Null Only For Some Users?

Jan 14, 2010

I am experiencing a strange problem with asp.net forms authentication. This problem only occurs for 3 users out of 30+ users that have successfully logged in. I am using very basic auth code that I have used many times and have never seen this problem. After the users successfully authenticates and the auth cookie is created, cookie added, and response.redirect to FormsAuthentication.GetRedirect(userid, false) is called. The Application_AuthenticateRequest method in Global.asax is hit.

// Extract the forms authentication cookie
tring cookieName = FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName;
HttpCookie authCookie = Context.Request.Cookies[cookieName];
if (null == authCookie)
{
// There is no authentication cookie.
return;
}

So immediately after a "good" cookie is saved and the redirect occurs the cookie is null. I have run the code through the debugger and the cookie is only null on these 3 users. But the cookie looks the same as the cookie for the many users that login successfully.

Security :: VB.NET Returns System.String[] Instead Of The Actual Value Of The String

Dec 24, 2010

I have two sub routines that I've created to pull in my Membership user roles and assign the value/name of that role to the value of a cookie.

My first subroutine looks like this

[Code]....

At this point, role ID is a 1-dimentional array which is not acceptable for a cookie's value (it must be a string), but in Debug mode, I can see that the array does contain the correct roleID value. In my 2nd subroutine I change the value from array to string for no other reason than that it gives me an opportunity to see that the value of CookieValue() before it is converted does have the correct roleID.

[Code]....

Even though it still shows that string as having the correct value, it returns the object "System.String[]"

C# - SelectionList Always Returns NULL - How To Fix It

Jul 20, 2010

I have a very strange issue where SelectionList always returns NULL when i try check its Selected Item/Value. I Googled a bit and I found out that when i click the submit button, the page is being refreshed and the SelectionList is being data bound again so it will revert back to its original behavior.

Then i tried enclosing the binding code in the Page_Load event in a !IsPostBack but still when i try to access the Selected property it is null and an exception is thrown.

My code goes something like this... (the braces are not matched properly)

static SelectionList[] Symptoms;
static string UserID = "";

cmbSymptoms1,cmbSymptoms2,cmbSymptoms3 and cmbSymptoms4 are SelectionLists. I took them in to an array of SelectionList and then set the properties.

I had to make them static or else when i click the button to update, they will not retain their values.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (this.IsPostBack == false)
{
//System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Not IsPostBack");
if (Request.QueryString["id"] != null && Request.QueryString.ToString() != "")
{
//System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("id query string is not null :- " + Request.QueryString["id"]);
myclass = new Class1();...........

ADO.NET :: SP From Linq Returns Empty Or Null Value

Feb 15, 2011

I have a class library which has my LINQ doc in it. I added a stored procedure and I get the following in my .dbml.layout :

[Code]....

I include a reference to the dll of the class library to my web project and I get an error about value being returned as int where I am trying to put contents into a datalist or similar.

Code in class that calls this SP :

[Code]....

So I switched code to the following in my dbml.layout document :

[Function(Name="dbo.sp_newsSearch")]public IEnumerable<news_search_result> sp_newsSearch([Parameter(DbType="VarChar(200)")] string searchVal){IExecuteResult result = this.ExecuteMethodCall(this, ((MethodInfo)(MethodInfo.GetCurrentMethod())), searchVal);return ((IEnumerable<news_search_result>)(result.ReturnValue));}

And included the following in an external file news_search_result.cs

[Code]....

But now I just get nothing returned. Is this wrong way of calling a SP via LINQ? or have I just put the wrong return type on my LINQ class?

Security :: Password Encryption Using Formsauthentication?

Dec 1, 2010

Just a quick question i've been asked to look at enhancing security but encrypting passwords we store in a db table, essentially the data thats linked to the user account isnt sensitive however its more to stop someone reading passwords out of the table directly etc

I've read multiple ways of implimenting hashing etc i've started using FormsAuthentication.HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile
//create new salt and update the password
Hashtable newInfo = new Hashtable();
newInfo["salt"] = GenerateFriendlyPassword(5);
string tmppass = FormsAuthentication.HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile(txtNewPass1.Text.ToString() + newInfo["salt"].ToString(), "SHA1");
newInfo["passwordHash"] = tmppass;

Generate friendly password returns a 5 char string based on a random position in a valid char array containing a - z and 0 - 9At present the functionality is at page level in the code behind, re this is the forms authentication HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile function thread safe? Or do i need to look at implimenting this in a different wayCheers appreciate your response as im always jubious about multi threading etc,

DataTable.Rows.Find Returns Null

Feb 13, 2010

I have a DataTable for which a PrimaryKey constraint has been set to be a combination of an integer column and a datetime column. When I try to 'Find' a row by saying,

dtFunds.Rows.Find(iContainerIndex)

I get a null value. iContainerIndex has been defined as an object array of size 2 with the integer ID and date values in it.

When I set a breakpoint in my code, I see that the very same values are present in the datatable.

If I try to execute, DataTable.Select() method with the integer column filter, I get a result - but returns no result when called with the date column filter.

What am I doing wrong here? The very same DateTime value is present in the datatable.

AJAX $find Always Returns Null In Usercontrol?

Jul 30, 2010

I want to use multiple targets with my ModalPopUp extender. One of my buttons is set as target in the ModalPopup and the other one will use server-side code to show the ModalPopup.

This is my ModalPopup so far:

<msAjax:ModalPopupExtender ID="modalInform" runat="server"
BehaviorID="modalInform"
TargetControlID="btnSearchUsers" [code].....

Then I found this little tutorial on the ASP.NET AJAX site.But when I use $find("modalInform") in the pageLoad Javascript function (as defined in the tutorial at the bottom), I'm always getting a $find("modalInform") is null error.

This code is included in a usercontrol, the usercontrol is used in a ASPX page and this ASPX-page uses a MasterPage.
I've noticed that if I'm using

<%= modalInform.ClientID %>

I'm getting a different value then defined in my HTML-source (propably because of the MasterPage?).
