# JWT Verification
|
|
This example demonstrates how to verify the [Pomerium JWT assertion header](https://www.pomerium.io/reference/#pass-identity-headers) using [Envoy](https://www.envoyproxy.io/). This is useful for legacy or 3rd party applications which can't be modified to perform verification themselves.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/)
|
|
- [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/)
|
|
- [mkcert](https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert)
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
Two services are configured in a `docker-compose.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
- `pomerium` running an all-in-one deployment of Pomerium on `*.localhost.pomerium.io`
|
|
- `envoy-jwt-checker` running envoy with a JWT Authn filter
|
|
|
|
Once running, the user visits [verify.localhost.pomerium.io](https://verify.localhost.pomerium.io), is authenticated through [authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io](https://authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io), and then the HTTP request is sent to envoy which proxies it to [`verify.pomerium.com`](https://verify.pomerium.com).
|
|
|
|
Before allowing the request Envoy will verify the signed JWT assertion header using the public key defined by [authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io/.well-known/pomerium/jwks.json](https://authenticate.int.example.com/.well-known/pomerium/jwks.json).
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
### 1. Docker Compose
|
|
Create a `docker-compose.yaml` file containing:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
version: "3.8"
|
|
services:
|
|
pomerium:
|
|
image: pomerium/pomerium:latest
|
|
ports:
|
|
- "443:443"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- type: bind
|
|
source: ./cfg/pomerium.yaml
|
|
target: /pomerium/config.yaml
|
|
- type: bind
|
|
source: ./certs/_wildcard.localhost.pomerium.io.pem
|
|
target: /pomerium/_wildcard.localhost.pomerium.io.pem
|
|
- type: bind
|
|
source: ./certs/_wildcard.localhost.pomerium.io-key.pem
|
|
target: /pomerium/_wildcard.localhost.pomerium.io-key.pem
|
|
|
|
envoy-jwt-checker:
|
|
image: envoyproxy/envoy:v1.17.1
|
|
ports:
|
|
- "10000:10000"
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- type: bind
|
|
source: ./cfg/envoy.yaml
|
|
target: /etc/envoy/envoy.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Certificates
|
|
Using [`mkcert`](https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert) generate a certificate for `*.localhost.pomerium.io` in a `certs` directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir certs
|
|
cd certs
|
|
mkcert '*.localhost.pomerium.io'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Envoy Configuration
|
|
Create a `cfg` directory containing the following `envoy.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
admin:
|
|
access_log_path: /dev/null
|
|
address:
|
|
socket_address: { address: 127.0.0.1, port_value: 9901 }
|
|
|
|
static_resources:
|
|
listeners:
|
|
- name: ingress-http
|
|
address:
|
|
socket_address: { address: 0.0.0.0, port_value: 10000 }
|
|
filter_chains:
|
|
- filters:
|
|
- name: envoy.filters.network.http_connection_manager
|
|
typed_config:
|
|
"@type": type.googleapis.com/envoy.extensions.filters.network.http_connection_manager.v3.HttpConnectionManager
|
|
stat_prefix: ingress_http
|
|
codec_type: AUTO
|
|
route_config:
|
|
name: verify
|
|
virtual_hosts:
|
|
- name: verify
|
|
domains: ["*"]
|
|
routes:
|
|
- match:
|
|
prefix: "/"
|
|
route:
|
|
cluster: egress-verify
|
|
auto_host_rewrite: true
|
|
http_filters:
|
|
- name: envoy.filters.http.jwt_authn
|
|
typed_config:
|
|

|
|

|
|
remote_jwks:
|
|
http_uri:
|
|
uri: https://authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io/.well-known/pomerium/jwks.json
|
|
cluster: egress-authenticate
|
|
timeout: 1s
|
|
rules:
|
|
- match:
|
|

|
|
requires:
|
|
provider_name: pomerium
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
connect_timeout: 0.25s
|
|
type: STRICT_DNS
|
|
lb_policy: ROUND_ROBIN
|
|
load_assignment:
|
|
cluster_name: verify
|
|
endpoints:
|
|
- lb_endpoints:
|
|
- endpoint:
|
|

|
"@type": type.googleapis.com/envoy.extensions.transport_sockets.tls.v3.UpstreamTlsContext
|
|
sni: authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Envoy configuration can be quite verbose, but the crucial bit is the HTTP filter:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- name: envoy.filters.http.jwt_authn
|
|
typed_config:
|
|
"@type": type.googleapis.com/envoy.extensions.filters.http.jwt_authn.v3.JwtAuthentication
|
|
providers:
|
|
pomerium:
|
|
issuer: authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io
|
|
audiences:
|
|
- verify.localhost.pomerium.io
|
|
from_headers:
|
|
- name: X-Pomerium-Jwt-Assertion
|
|
remote_jwks:
|
|
http_uri:
|
|
uri: https://authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io/.well-known/pomerium/jwks.json
|
|
cluster: egress-authenticate
|
|
timeout: 1s
|
|
rules:
|
|
- match:
|
|
prefix: /
|
|
requires:
|
|
provider_name: pomerium
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This configuration pulls the JWT out of the `X-Pomerium-Jwt-Assertion` header, verifies the `iss` and `aud` claims and checks the signature via the public key defined at the `jwks.json` endpoint. Documentation for additional configuration options is available here: [Envoy JWT Authentication](https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/configuration/http/http_filters/jwt_authn_filter#config-http-filters-jwt-authn).
|
|
|
|
### 4. Pomerium Configuration
|
|
Create a `pomerium.yaml` file in the `cfg` directory containing:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
authenticate_service_url: https://authenticate.localhost.pomerium.io
|
|
|
|
certificate_file: "/pomerium/_wildcard.localhost.pomerium.io.pem"
|
|
certificate_key_file: "/pomerium/_wildcard.localhost.pomerium.io-key.pem"
|
|
|
|
idp_provider: google
|
|
idp_client_id: REPLACE_ME
|
|
idp_client_secret: REPLACE_ME
|
|
|
|
cookie_secret: WwMtDXWaRDMBQCylle8OJ+w4kLIDIGd8W3cB4/zFFtg=
|
|
shared_secret: WwMtDXWaRDMBQCylle8OJ+w4kLIDIGd8W3cB4/zFFtg=
|
|
signing_key: LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBFQyBQUklWQVRFIEtFWS0tLS0tCk1IY0NBUUVFSUdxWllpVzJycVo3TUdKTGp4bnNZVWJJcmZxNFdwR044RlgzQVh2UnRjSHdvQW9HQ0NxR1NNNDkKQXdFSG9VUURRZ0FFYVd1UkNKMjFrL2JvUjNNRytPOVlHQjNXR0R1anVXMHFLVWhucUVwVS9JKzFoZmhuZEJ0WApDZGFpaGVGb0FOWXVCRUp3MFZhRml6QnVZb3l5RVAzOXBRPT0KLS0tLS1FTkQgRUMgUFJJVkFURSBLRVktLS0tLQo=
|
|
|
|
policy:
|
|
- from: https://verify.localhost.pomerium.io
|
|
to: http://envoy-jwt-checker:10000
|
|
allowed_domains:
|
|
- pomerium.com
|
|
pass_identity_headers: true
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You will need to replace the identity provider credentials for this to work.
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
You should now be able to run the example with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker-compose up
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Visit [verify.localhost.pomerium.io](https://verify.localhost.pomerium.io), login and you see the Pomerium verify page. However, visiting Envoy directly via [localhost:10000](http://localhost:10000) should return a `Jwt is missing` error, thus requiring Pomerium to access Envoy.
