Unable to do Single LogOut (SLO) in CAS with 3 client applications. (Spring Security 4.2.1.RELEASE + SSO CAS - jasig 4.0.3)


I'm using CAS with three applications, when I try to logout from one of then, CAS kill the session from that application, but the session remains in the others applications. How do I kill all the sessions?

  • CAS
  • APPLICATION A
  • APPLICATION B
  • APPLICATION C

logouts from application A, remais logged in applications B and C.

I wasn't able to get all cookies, only from the application where the logout method is in.

Anyone can assist on this one?


Solution

  • Fundamental here is to logout out the local application sessions and then call the cas logout service. I would imagine this is how your application logout controller would look like

    public ModelAndView logout(HttpServletRequest request) {
        SecurityContextHolder.clearContext();
        request.getSession(false).invalidate();
        return new ModelAndView("redirect:/logout/cas");
    }
    

    when you redirect to /logout/cas the following entries in spring-security.xml will take care of single logout.

    <!-- This filter handles a Single Logout Request from the CAS Server -->
    <bean id="singleLogoutFilter" class="org.jasig.cas.client.session.SingleSignOutFilter">
        <property name="artifactParameterName" value="SAMLart"></property>
    </bean>
    
    <!-- This filter redirects to the CAS Server to signal Single Logout should be performed -->
    <bean id="requestSingleLogoutFilter" class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.logout.LogoutFilter">
        <constructor-arg value="https://${cas.server.name}/cas/logout" />
        <constructor-arg>
            <bean class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.logout.SecurityContextLogoutHandler" />
        </constructor-arg>
        <property name="filterProcessesUrl" value="/logout/cas" />
    </bean>
