This ensures that Spring Session & Security's logic for performing
a save on the response being committed can easily be kept in synch.
Further this ensures that the SecurityContext is now persisted when
the response body meets the content length.
The Galois Counter Mode (GCM) is held to be superior than the current
default CBC. This change adds an extra parameter to the constructor
of AesBytesEncryptor and a new convenience method in Encryptors.
Before the default session fixation AuthenticationStrategy used a
NullEventPublisher when using the Java Configuration. This was due to the
fact that it is not exposed as a Bean and is not post processed.
We now post process the default session fixation AuthenticationStrategy
which initializes the EventPublisher properly.
Currently the search filter used when retrieving user details is hard coded.
New property in ActiveDirectoryLdapAuthenticationProvider:
- searchFilter - the LDAP search filter to use when searching for authorities,
default to search using 'userPrincipalName' (current) OR 'sAMAccountName'
Previously, if the Principal returned by getPreAuthenticatedPrincipal was not a String,
it prevented requiresAuthentication from detecting when the Principal was the same.
This caused the need to authenticate the user for every request even when the Principal
did not change.
Now requiresAuthentication will check to see if the result of
getPreAuthenticatedPrincipal is equal to the current Authentication.getPrincipal().
The Platform would like to move to JUnit 4.12 but cannot do so at the
moment as Spring Security uses a version of PowerMock which is
incompatible with JUnit 4.12. This commit updates Spring Security to use
PowerMock 1.6.1 with is compatible with JUnit 4.12.
Changed the bean definition method for the DelegatingApplicationListener
to be static to avoid the need to instantiate the configuration class which
caused further premature initializations to satisfy the dependencies
expressed in setFilterChainProxySecurityConfigurer(…).
