# Shibboleth OmniAuth Provider
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
The preferred approach for integrating a Shibboleth authentication system
|
|
with GitLab 10 or newer is to use [GitLab's SAML integration](saml.md). This documentation is for Omnibus GitLab 9.x installs or older.
|
|
|
|
In order to enable Shibboleth support in GitLab we need to use Apache instead of NGINX (It may be possible to use NGINX, however this is difficult to configure using the bundled NGINX provided in the Omnibus GitLab package). Apache uses mod_shib2 module for Shibboleth authentication and can pass attributes as headers to OmniAuth Shibboleth provider.
|
|
|
|
To enable the Shibboleth OmniAuth provider you must configure Apache Shibboleth module.
|
|
The installation and configuration of the module itself is out of the scope of this document.
|
|
Check <https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SP3/Apache> for more information.
|
|
|
|
You can find Apache configuration in [GitLab Recipes](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-recipes/tree/master/web-server/apache).
|
|
|
|
The following changes are needed to enable Shibboleth:
|
|
|
|
1. Protect OmniAuth Shibboleth callback URL:
|
|
|
|
```apache
|
|
<Location /users/auth/shibboleth/callback>
|
|
AuthType shibboleth
|
|
ShibRequestSetting requireSession 1
|
|
ShibUseHeaders On
|
|
require valid-user
|
|
</Location>
|
|
|
|
Alias /shibboleth-sp /usr/share/shibboleth
|
|
<Location /shibboleth-sp>
|
|
Satisfy any
|
|
</Location>
|
|
|
|
<Location /Shibboleth.sso>
|
|
SetHandler shib
|
|
</Location>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Exclude Shibboleth URLs from rewriting. Add `RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/Shibboleth.sso` and `RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/shibboleth-sp`. Configuration should look like this:
|
|
|
|
```apache
|
|
# Apache equivalent of Nginx try files
|
|
RewriteEngine on
|
|
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
|
|
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/Shibboleth.sso
|
|
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/shibboleth-sp
|
|
RewriteRule .* http://127.0.0.1:8080%{REQUEST_URI} [P,QSA]
|
|
RequestHeader set X_FORWARDED_PROTO 'https'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
Starting from GitLab 11.4, OmniAuth is enabled by default. If you're using an
|
|
earlier version, you must explicitly enable it in `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`.
|
|
|
|
1. In addition, add Shibboleth to `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` as an OmniAuth provider.
|
|
User attributes are sent from the
|
|
Apache reverse proxy to GitLab as headers with the names from the Shibboleth
|
|
attribute mapping. Therefore the values of the `args` hash
|
|
should be in the form of `"HTTP_ATTRIBUTE"`. The keys in the hash are arguments
|
|
to the [OmniAuth::Strategies::Shibboleth class](https://github.com/toyokazu/omniauth-shibboleth/blob/master/lib/omniauth/strategies/shibboleth.rb)
|
|
and are documented by the [`omniauth-shibboleth` gem](https://github.com/toyokazu/omniauth-shibboleth)
|
|
(take care to note the version of the gem packaged with GitLab). If some of
|
|
your users appear to be authenticated by Shibboleth and Apache, but GitLab
|
|
rejects their account with a URI that contains "e-mail is invalid" then your
|
|
Shibboleth Identity Provider or Attribute Authority may be asserting multiple
|
|
e-mail addresses. In this instance, you might consider setting the
|
|
`multi_values` argument to `first`.
|
|
|
|
The file should look like this:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
external_url 'https://gitlab.example.com'
|
|
gitlab_rails['internal_api_url'] = 'https://gitlab.example.com'
|
|
|
|
# disable Nginx
|
|
nginx['enable'] = false
|
|
|
|
gitlab_rails['omniauth_allow_single_sign_on'] = true
|
|
gitlab_rails['omniauth_block_auto_created_users'] = false
|
|
gitlab_rails['omniauth_providers'] = [
|
|
{
|
|
"name" => "'shibboleth"',
|
|
"label" => "Text for Login Button",
|
|
"args" => {
|
|
"shib_session_id_field" => "HTTP_SHIB_SESSION_ID",
|
|
"shib_application_id_field" => "HTTP_SHIB_APPLICATION_ID",
|
|
"uid_field" => 'HTTP_EPPN',
|
|
"name_field" => 'HTTP_CN',
|
|
"info_fields" => { "email" => 'HTTP_MAIL'}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. [Reconfigure](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure) or [restart](../administration/restart_gitlab.md#installations-from-source) GitLab for the changes to take effect if you
|
|
installed GitLab via Omnibus or from source respectively.
|
|
|
|
On the sign in page, there should now be a "Sign in with: Shibboleth" icon below the regular sign in form. Click the icon to begin the authentication process. You are redirected to IdP server (depends on your Shibboleth module configuration). If everything goes well the user is returned to GitLab and is signed in.
|
|
|
|
## Apache 2.4 / GitLab 8.6 update
|
|
|
|
The order of the first 2 Location directives is important. If they are reversed,
|
|
requesting a Shibboleth session fails!
