        What's  new  in  Security?   Dominick  Baier   hGp://leastprivilege.com   @leastprivilege   think mobile!
  2. 2   @leastprivilege   Dominick  Baier   •  Security  consultant

     at  thinktecture   •  Focus  on   –  security  in  distributed  applica9ons   –  iden9ty  management   –  access  control   –  Windows/.NET  security   –  mobile  app  security     •  MicrosoO  MVP  for  Developer  Security   •  ASP.NET  Web  API  Advisor   •  [email protected]   •  hGp://leastprivilege.com   think mobile!
  3. 3   @leastprivilege   Where  are  we?   Visual  Studio

     <=  2012   Visual  Studio  2013   Visual  Studio  >=  2014/15   ASP.NET  WebForms   ASP.NET  MVC     ASP.NET  Web  API   ASP.NET  SignalR     (Simple)  Membership   "One  ASP.NET"     WebForms  &  MVC   Web  API  &  SignalR     OWIN/Katana   ASP.NET  Iden9ty   One  ASP.NET     OWIN/Katana     MVC   Web  API   SignalR     ???  
  4. 4   @leastprivilege   OWIN  Mo9va9on   •  System.Web.dll  (aka

     ASP.NET)   –  12+  year  old  web  framework   –  Unnamed  MicrosoX  employee  on  System.Web:   •  “We  fix  one  bug  and  open  seven  new  ones”   –  Always  executes  lots  of  ASP.NET-­‐specific  code   hGps://twiGer.com/aeinbu/status/407816285058514944  
  5. 7   @leastprivilege   OWIN  Specifica9on   •  Environment  models

  6. 8   @leastprivilege   OWIN  Architecture   •  Host  manages

     process  lifeame   •  Server  hosts  HTTP  and  implements  OWIN  API   •  Middleware  are  linked  components  that  process  requests   •  Applicaaon  code  targeang  a  framework  (e.g.  Web  API)   Host   OWIN  Server   Some   Middleware   Some  Other   Middleware   User  Agent   Applica9on  
  7. 9   @leastprivilege   What  is  Katana?   •  MicrosoO’s

     OWIN  implementaaon   –  hkps://katanaproject.codeplex.com/   •  Set  of  hosts  and  servers   –  IIS  or  self-­‐hos9ng   •  Set  of  convenience  classes   –  OwinContext,  OwinRequest,  OwinResponse,  etc.   –  AppBuilderUseExtensions   –  Authen%ca%onManager   •  Set  of  middleware  for  common  features   –  Authen9ca9on   –  Hos9ng  content  (e.g.  sta9c  files)   –  CORS  
  8. 11   @leastprivilege   Framework  Support   •  Many  applica9on

     frameworks  support  OWIN/Katana   –  Web  API   –  SignalR   –  Nancy   –  ServiceStack   –  FubuMVC   –  Simple.Web   –  RavenDB   –  Thinktecture  Iden9tyServer  v3   –  (MVC  &  WebForms)  
  9. 12   @leastprivilege   Hos9ng  Op9ons   IIS   System.Web

      e.g.  Web  API   Self  Host   HkpListener   e.g.  Web  API   IIS   Helios   e.g.  Web  API   Host   Server   Applicaaon   IIS  today   Self  Host   IIS  tomorrow  
  10. 13   @leastprivilege   Katana  Authen9ca9on   •  Katana  provides

     a  uniform  authenacaaon  API   –  availabe  via  OwinContext   public  interface  IAuthenticationManager   {          ClaimsPrincipal  User  {  get;  set;  }              void  SignIn(params  ClaimsIdentity[]  identities);          void  SignOut(params  string[]  authenticationTypes);              Task<AuthenticateResult>  AuthenticateAsync(string  authenticationType);                  void  Challenge(params  string[]  authenticationTypes);          IEnumerable<AuthenticationDescription>  GetAuthenticationTypes();   }  
  11. 14   @leastprivilege   Cookie  Middleware   •  Forms  Authenacaaon

     replacement   public  void  Configuration(IAppBuilder  app)   {          var  options  =  new  CookieAuthenticationOptions          {                  AuthenticationType  =  "Cookies",                  LoginPath  =  new  PathString("/account/login"),                                                    ExpireTimeSpan  =  TimeSpan.FromHours(4),                  CookieSecure  =  CookieSecureOption.Always          };            app.UseCookieAuthentication(options);   }

  16. 19   @leastprivilege   From  Cookies  to  Tokens   • 

    Web  API  prefers  to  avoid  cookie  authenacaaon   –  Prevents  XSRF  akacks   •  Special  message  handler  to  block  host  authenacaaon   –  SuppressDefaultHostAuthen%ca%on   •  Web  API  must  ask  for  authenacaaon  when  needed   –  HostAuthen%ca%on  authen9ca9on  filter   –  Bearer  authen9ca9on  middleware  configured  as  passive   public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config) { config.SuppressDefaultHostAuthentication(); config.Filters.Add(new HostAuthenticationFilter(“Bearer”)); }
  17. 20   @leastprivilege   „Embedded“  OAuth2  Token  Service   • 

    OAuth2  authorizaaon  server  middleware  can  emit  token   –  Supports  the  protocols  of  all  OAuth2  flows   •  OAuth2  bearer  token  middleware  consumes  tokens   –  Similar  to  cookie  middleware   User  Agent OWIN  Host Bearer  MW Application Authorization   Server  MW
