I have configured spring-saml and spring security in my application. I have given different url pattern to recognize request. if I append /rest in app URL then it will create spring-security context with basic authentication. If I append /saml in app URL then it will populate IDP login page and redirect to index.html after successful login.
But I am getting redirected to login.html page again instead of index.html. After eclipse debugging and putting some logs here and there I got there is no authentication object available.
I have read this jira link and updated spring-security version to 3.1.4.RELEASE but it did not solve my issue.
After struggling a lot I find that saml security context is getting cleared by filterChainProxy doFilter method and setting authentication is null and then redirecting to the secured target url which requires authentication which is not present. hence it redirect to login page.
I googled a lot but did not find any way to use saml authentication to pass j_spring_security check.
I have attached my saml-security.xml and spring-security.xml file below

Can anyone help me to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.
After struggling for almost a week, finally I have fixed this issue.
While debugging through eclipse I found the root cause inside SAMLAuthenticationProvider there is a method getEntitlements which was causing problem.
protected Collection<? extends GrantedAuthority> getEntitlements(SAMLCredential credential, Object userDetail) {
if (userDetail instanceof UserDetails) {
List<GrantedAuthority> authorities = new ArrayList<GrantedAuthority>();
authorities.addAll(((UserDetails) userDetail).getAuthorities());
return authorities;
} else {
return Collections.emptyList();
}
}
Here It is checking whether userDetail object is an instanceOf UserDetails class then return all authority list otherwise empty list of authority will be return.
It is fine with form based authentication which returns UserDetails object but If a user logged in through IDP initiated SSO then object of type UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken will be return. Hence It is getting empty list of grantedAuthourity with userDetail object.
So I extends SAMLAuthenticationProvider inside my application and override the below method
@Override
public Collection<? extends GrantedAuthority> getEntitlements(SAMLCredential credential, Object userDetail)
{
logger.info("****** object is instance of UserDetails :"+ (userDetail instanceof UserDetails));
if (userDetail instanceof UserDetails)
{
List<GrantedAuthority> authorities = new ArrayList<GrantedAuthority>();
authorities.addAll(((UserDetails) userDetail).getAuthorities());
return authorities;
}
else if(userDetail instanceof UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken)
{
List<GrantedAuthority> authorities = new ArrayList<GrantedAuthority>();
authorities.addAll(((UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken) userDetail).getAuthorities());
return authorities;
} else {
return Collections.emptyList();
}
}
Then I give my custom authenticationProvider reference into saml-security.xml file with my custom SAMLUserDetailsService class reference.
<bean id="samlAuthenticationProvider" class="com.mercatus.security.MercatusSAMLAuthenticationProvider">
<property name="userDetails" ref="samlUserDetailsService" />
</bean>
<bean id="samlUserDetailsService" class="com.mercatus.security.MercatusSAMLUserDetailsService"/>
The above configuration saved me. I am able to access protected resource after login.
I spent a whole week debugging inside FilterChainProxy, many other filters and here and there because of intercepter URL it was redirecting to FilterChainProxy.
I am posting detailed info because It may be helpful for others who are facing similar issue.
