I have "Vaadin 10 with Spring Boot" application. I want to allow user to access application from one place at a time. So I used maximumSessions(1). Example, from Chrome browser I have logged in with user "XYZ". Now with the same user (i.e. "XYZ") I tried to login to Opera browser. So as per configuration shown below, it will expire session of Chrome browser but it is not redirecting to "/login". It shows message "Invalid JSON response from Server". Below is the Spring security configuration:
@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
// Not using Spring CSRF here to be able to use plain HTML for the login page
http.csrf().disable()
// Register our CustomRequestCache, that saves unauthorized access attempts, so
// the user is redirected after login.
.requestCache().requestCache(new CustomRequestCache())
// Restrict access to our application.
.and().authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/ForgetPassword","/ChangePassword","/login").permitAll()
// Allow all flow internal requests.
.requestMatchers(SecurityUtils::isFrameworkInternalRequest).permitAll()
// Allow all requests by logged in users.
.anyRequest().authenticated()
// Configure the login page.
.and().formLogin().loginPage("/login").permitAll().loginProcessingUrl("/login")
.failureUrl("/login?error")
// Register the success handler that redirects users to the page they last tried
// to access
.successHandler(new SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler())
// Configure logout
.and().logout().logoutSuccessUrl(LOGOUT_SUCCESS_URL)
.deleteCookies("JSESSIONID")
//.invalidateHttpSession(true)
.and()
.sessionManagement()
//.invalidSessionUrl("/login")
.maximumSessions(1)
//.maxSessionsPreventsLogin(false)
.sessionRegistry(sessionRegistry())
.expiredUrl("/login");
The problem is that, by redirecting the request, Vaadin receives the login page as a response to a internal request.
This seems to work:
.expiredSessionStrategy(e -> {
final String redirectUrl = e.getRequest().getContextPath() + "/login";
if(SecurityUtils.isFrameworkInternalRequest(e.getRequest())) {
e.getResponse().setHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
e.getResponse().getWriter().write("Vaadin-Refresh: " + redirectUrl);
} else {
e.getResponse().sendRedirect(redirectUrl);
}
});
It is documented in the ConnectionStateHandler
public interface ConnectionStateHandler {
/**
* A string that, if found in a non-JSON response to a UIDL request, will
* cause the browser to refresh the page. If followed by a colon, optional
* whitespace, and a URI, causes the browser to synchronously load the URI.
*
* <p>
* This allows, for instance, a servlet filter to redirect the application
* to a custom login page when the session expires. For example:
* </p>
*
* <pre>
* if (sessionExpired) {
* response.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/html");
* response.getWriter().write(myLoginPageHtml + "<!-- Vaadin-Refresh: "
* + request.getContextPath() + " -->");
* }
* </pre>
*/
String UIDL_REFRESH_TOKEN = "Vaadin-Refresh";
