WebSphere : How to retrieve a user's credentials from CAS ticket?

I am currently working on a WebSphere 8.5.5 secured by LDAP. What I want to achieve is SSO using Jasig CAS authentication. Currently, I am able to log a user in CAS and to retrieve and validate the ticket in a WebSphere hosted webapp. What I wonder how to do is to retrieve the login and password of the identified subject using the ticket I am recieving (if this is possible...)

Thank you for your help!!

Solution

  • You will need to be connecting to a CAS Server that has the ClearPass module enabled. Then you can securely retrieve the user's password to replay it.
