Detailed Description

Creates and manages user sessions.

The cache abstracts a persistent (meaning across requests) cache of instances of the Session interface. Creation of new entries and entry lookup are confined to this interface to enable the implementation to remote and/or optimize calls by implementing custom versions of the Session interface as required.


Member Function Documentation

virtual std::string shibsp::SessionCache::active ( const Application application,
const xmltooling::HTTPRequest &  request 
) [pure virtual]

Returns the ID of the session bound to the specified client request, if possible.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the Session
request request from client containing session, or a reference to it
Returns:
ID of session, if any known, or an empty string

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual Session* shibsp::SessionCache::find ( const Application application,
const char *  key 
) [pure virtual]

Locates an existing session by ID.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the Session
key session key
Returns:
pointer to locked Session, or nullptr

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual Session* shibsp::SessionCache::find ( const Application application,
xmltooling::HTTPRequest &  request,
const char *  client_addr = nullptr,
time_t *  timeout = nullptr 
) [pure virtual]

Locates an existing session bound to a request.

If the client address is supplied, then a check will be performed against the address recorded in the record.

If a bound session is found to have expired, be invalid, etc., and if the request can be used to "clear" the session from subsequent client requests, then it may be cleared.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the Session
request request from client bound to session
client_addr network address of client (if known)
timeout inactivity timeout to enforce (0 for none, nullptr to bypass check/update of last access)
Returns:
pointer to locked Session, or nullptr

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual void shibsp::SessionCache::insert ( std::string &  sessionID,
const Application application,
const xmltooling::HTTPRequest &  httpRequest,
xmltooling::HTTPResponse &  httpResponse,
time_t  expires,
const opensaml::saml2md::EntityDescriptor *  issuer = nullptr,
const XMLCh *  protocol = nullptr,
const opensaml::saml2::NameID *  nameid = nullptr,
const XMLCh *  authn_instant = nullptr,
const XMLCh *  session_index = nullptr,
const XMLCh *  authncontext_class = nullptr,
const XMLCh *  authncontext_decl = nullptr,
const std::vector< const opensaml::Assertion * > *  tokens = nullptr,
const std::vector< Attribute * > *  attributes = nullptr 
) [pure virtual]

Inserts a new session into the cache and binds the session to the outgoing client response.

The newly created session ID is placed into the first parameter.

The SSO tokens and Attributes remain owned by the caller and are copied by the cache.

Parameters:
sessionID reference to string to capture newly inserted session ID
application reference to Application that owns the Session
httpRequest request that initiated session
httpResponse current response to client
expires expiration time of session
issuer issuing metadata of assertion issuer, if known
protocol protocol family used to initiate the session
nameid principal identifier, normalized to SAML 2, if any
authn_instant UTC timestamp of authentication at IdP, if known
session_index index of session between principal and IdP, if any
authncontext_class method/category of authentication event, if known
authncontext_decl specifics of authentication event, if known
tokens assertions to cache with session, if any
attributes optional array of resolved Attributes to cache with session

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual std::vector<std::string>::size_type shibsp::SessionCache::logout ( const Application application,
const opensaml::saml2md::EntityDescriptor *  issuer,
const opensaml::saml2::NameID &  nameid,
const std::set< std::string > *  indexes,
time_t  expires,
std::vector< std::string > &  sessions 
) [pure virtual]

Returns active sessions that match particular parameters and records the logout to prevent race conditions.

On exit, the mapping between these sessions and the associated information MAY be removed by the cache, so subsequent calls to this method may not return anything.

Until logout expiration, any attempt to create a session with the same parameters will be blocked by the cache.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the session(s)
issuer source of session(s)
nameid name identifier associated with the session(s) to terminate
indexes indexes of sessions, or nullptr for all sessions associated with other parameters
expires logout expiration
sessions on exit, contains the IDs of the matching sessions found

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual bool shibsp::SessionCache::matches ( const Application application,
xmltooling::HTTPRequest &  request,
const opensaml::saml2md::EntityDescriptor *  issuer,
const opensaml::saml2::NameID &  nameid,
const std::set< std::string > *  indexes 
) [pure virtual]

Determines whether the Session bound to a client request matches a set of input criteria.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the Session
request request in which to locate Session
issuer required source of session(s)
nameid required name identifier
indexes session indexes
Returns:
true iff the Session exists and matches the input criteria

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual void shibsp::SessionCache::remove ( const Application application,
const char *  key,
time_t  revocationExp = 0 
) [pure virtual]

Deletes an existing session.

Revocation may be supported by some implementations.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the Session
key session key
revocationExp optional indicator for length of time to track revocation of this session

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.

virtual void shibsp::SessionCache::remove ( const Application application,
const xmltooling::HTTPRequest &  request,
xmltooling::HTTPResponse *  response = nullptr,
time_t  revocationExp = 0 
) [pure virtual]

Deletes an existing session bound to a request.

Revocation may be supported by some implementations.

Parameters:
application reference to Application that owns the Session
request request from client containing session, or a reference to it
response optional response to client enabling removal of session or reference
revocationExp optional indicator for length of time to track revocation of this session

Implemented in shibsp::SSCache.
