WSO2 XACML dynamic attribute value


I wanted to write XACML in Wso2 Identity server where i want to authorize user to access country page if user belongs to that country http://localhost:8080/Country_name.

User Country
1   India
2   US
3   UK
4   Australia

And user country mapping is added from UI (of Web application).Now if user 2 logins it should not be able to access other country page other than US

Thanks Priyanka Goel


Solution

  • So you are saying you are trying to get access to a page and that page belongs to a country. You are saying:

    If this is indeed correct, the authorization policy is very simple. Here is what it would look like using ALFA:

     /**
      * Control access to webpage
      */
     policy accessPage{
         target clause action_id == "view" and com.axiomatics.examples.objectType == "page"
         apply firstApplicable
         /**
          * Users can view a page if they are in the same country
          */
         rule allowSameCountry{
             permit
             condition user.country == page.country
         }
     }
    

    In XACML (XML) it looks like the following:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
