This will attempt to mitigate cases where many instances of Wonderwall on the same domain set cookies which will exceed the header size for Cookies. Generally, this should result in decryption failures when transitioning from one app to another, which should omit the Authorization header and have a new session triggered by the downstream application.

wonderwall
wonderwall is an application that implements OpenID Connect in a way that makes it easy to plug into Kubernetes as a sidecar.
As such, this is OIDC as a sidecar, or OaaS, or to explain the joke: Oasis - Wonderwall
About
Wonderwall currently implements a client that follows ID-porten's preferred setup:
- OpenID Connect Authorization Code Flow with mandatory use of PKCE, state and nonce - aiming to be compliant with OAuth 2.1.
- Validation of
id_tokenin accordance with the OpenID Connect Core specifications. - Client authentication with the authorization server as per RFC 7523, Section 2.2.
- Support for RP-initiated logout.
- Support for front-channel logout.
Endpoints
Wonderwall exposes and owns these endpoints (which means they will never be proxied downstream):
/oauth2/loginredirects the user to ID-porten to perform the OpenID Connect Authorization Code Flow./oauth2/callbackhandles callbacks from ID-porten as part of the OpenID Connect Authorization Code Flow./oauth2/logouttriggers self-initiated/RP-initiated logout./oauth2/logout/frontchannelimplements front-channel logout.
Functionality
Wonderwall functions as an optionally intercepting reverse proxy that proxies requests to a downstream host.
By default, it does not actually intercept any requests other than to remove the Authorization header if the user agent
does not have a valid session with Wonderwall.
Usage
In order to initiate authenticated user sessions, the user must be redirected to the /oauth2/login endpoint, which performs
the OIDC Auth Code flow.
The user will then be redirected back to the downstream application, with the Authorization header containing a Bearer
access token. As long as the user has an active session with Wonderwall, all further requests to the downstream
application will have the Authorization header set.
Development
Requirements
- Go 1.17
Configuration
Required
IDPORTEN_CLIENT_ID
Client ID for the client at ID-porten.IDPORTEN_CLIENT_JWK
Private key belonging to the client in JWK format.IDPORTEN_REDIRECT_URI
Valid pre-registered redirect URI that ID-porten should redirect the user to as part of the authentication flow.
For example:http://localhost:8090/oauth2/callbackIDPORTEN_WELL_KNOWN_URL
Well-known OpenID Configuration endpoint for ID-porten: https://docs.digdir.no/oidc_func_wellknown.html.
Optional
Wonderwall can be configured using either command-line flags or equivalent environment variables (i.e. -, . -> _ and uppercase).
Build with make wonderwall and run ./bin/wonderwall --help to see the available flags.
