Overview
The integration between the CAS Server and ADFS delegates user authentication from CAS Server to ADFS, making CAS Server a WS-Federation client. Claims released from ADFS are made available as attributes to CAS Server, and by extension CAS Clients.
The functionality described here allows CAS to use ADFS as an external identity provider. If you wish to do the opposite, allowing ADFS to become a CAS client and using CAS as an identity provider, you may take advantage of SAML2 support in CAS as one integration option.
Support is enabled by including the following dependency in the WAR overlay:

It's safe to make sure you have the proper JCE bundle
installed in your Java environment that is used by CAS, specially if you need to consume encrypted payloads issued by ADFS.
Be sure to pick the right version of the JCE for your Java version. Java
versions can be detected via the java -version
command.
WsFed Configuration
Adjust and provide settings for the ADFS instance, and make sure you have obtained the ADFS signing certificate and made it available to CAS at a location that can be resolved at runtime.
The following settings and properties are available from the CAS configuration catalog:
cas.authn.wsfed[0].attribute-mutator-script.location=
Path to attribute mutator groovy script that allows one to modify wsfed attributes before establishing a final principal. The location of the resource. Resources can be URLs, or files found either on the classpath or outside somewhere in the file system. In the event the configured resource is a Groovy script, specially if the script set to reload on changes, you may need to adjust the total number ofinotify instances.
On Linux, you may need to add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf :
fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 256 .
You can check the current value via cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances .
In situations and scenarios where CAS is able to automatically watch the underlying resource
for changes and detect updates and modifications dynamically, you may be able to specify the following
setting as either an environment variable or system property with a value of false to disable
the resource watcher: org.apereo.cas.util.io.PathWatcherService .
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].cookie.crypto.encryption.key=
The encryption key is a JWT whose length is defined by the encryption key size setting.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].cookie.crypto.signing.key=
The signing key is a JWT whose length is defined by the signing key size setting.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.groovy.location=
Transform usernames using a Groovy resource. The location of the resource. Resources can be URLs, or files found either on the classpath or outside somewhere in the file system. In the event the configured resource is a Groovy script, specially if the script set to reload on changes, you may need to adjust the total number ofinotify instances.
On Linux, you may need to add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf :
fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 256 .
You can check the current value via cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances .
In situations and scenarios where CAS is able to automatically watch the underlying resource
for changes and detect updates and modifications dynamically, you may be able to specify the following
setting as either an environment variable or system property with a value of false to disable
the resource watcher: org.apereo.cas.util.io.PathWatcherService .
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].id=
Internal identifier for this wsfed configuration. If undefined, the identifier would be auto-generated by CAS itself. In the event that there is more than on CAS server defined in a clustered deployment, this identifier must be statically defined in the configuration.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].identity-attribute=upn
The attribute extracted from the assertion and used to construct the CAS principal id.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].identity-provider-identifier=http://adfs.example.org/adfs/services/trust

Wsfed identity provider url. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].relying-party-identifier=urn:cas:localhost
The identifier for CAS (RP) registered with wsfed. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].signing-certificate-resources=classpath:adfs-signing.crt

If federation metadata XML is provided, the signing certificate is extracted
from the
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.active-attribute-repository-ids=*
Activated attribute repository identifiers that should be used for fetching attributes if attribute resolution is enabled. The list here may include identifiers separated by comma.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.attribute-repository-selection=
Control the behavior of the attribute repository selection by authentication method or handler. The map here is keyed by the authentication handler name, and the value is the attribute repository identifiers separated by comma. When the authentication handler is executed, the attribute repositories assigned to this handler will be selected to fetch attributes. Note that the resolution engine will always favor attribute repositories assigned to the service definition, if any and as part of its authentication policy, over this global setting.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.attribute-resolution-enabled=UNDEFINED
Whether attribute repositories should be contacted to fetch person attributes. Defaults to true if not set. Available values are as follows:
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-attribute=
Attribute name to use to indicate the identifier of the principal constructed. If the attribute is blank or has no values, the default principal id will be used determined by the underlying authentication engine. The principal id attribute usually is removed from the collection of attributes collected, though this behavior depends on the schematics of the underlying authentication strategy.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-resolution-conflict-strategy=last
In the event that the principal resolution engine resolves
more than one principal, (specially if such principals in the chain
have different identifiers), this setting determines strategy by which
the principal id would be chosen from the chain.
Accepted values are:
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-resolution-failure-fatal=UNDEFINED
When true, throws an error back indicating that principal resolution has failed and no principal can be found based on the authentication requirements. Otherwise, logs the condition as an error without raising a catastrophic error. Available values are as follows:
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.blocking-pattern=
A regular expression that will be used against the username to match for blocking/forbidden values. If a match is found, an exception will be thrown and principal transformation will fail. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.case-conversion=NONE
Indicate whether the principal identifier should be transformed into upper-case, lower-case, etc. Available values are as follows:
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.pattern=
A regular expression that will be used against the provided username for username extractions. On a successful match, the first matched group in the pattern will be used as the extracted username. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|

|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.use-existing-principal-id=UNDEFINED
Uses an existing principal id that may have already been established in order to run person directory queries. This is generally useful in situations where authentication is delegated to an external identity provider and a principal is first established to then query an attribute source. Available values are as follows:

cas.authn.wsfed[0].cookie.domain=
Cookie domain. Specifies the domain within which this cookie should be presented. The form of the domain name is specified by RFC 2965. A domain name begins with a dot (.foo.com) and means that the cookie is visible to servers in a specified Domain Name System (DNS) zone (for example, www.foo.com, but not a.b.foo.com). By default, cookies are only returned to the server that sent them.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].cookie.geo-locate-client-session=
When set to

Cookie path. Specifies a path for the cookie to which the client should return the cookie. The cookie is visible to all the pages in the directory you specify, and all the pages in that directory's subdirectories. A cookie's path must include the servlet that set the cookie, for example, /catalog, which makes the cookie visible to all directories on the server under /catalog. Consult RFC 2965 (available on the Internet) for more information on setting path names for cookies.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].cookie.pin-to-session=true

If a cookie is only intended to be accessed in a first party context, the
developer has the option to apply one of settings
SameSite=None , to designate
cookies for cross-site access. When the SameSite=None attribute is present, an additional
Secure attribute is used so cross-site cookies can only be accessed over HTTPS
connections.
Accepted values are:

This CAS feature is able to accept signing and encryption crypto keys. In most scenarios if keys are not provided, CAS will auto-generate them. The following instructions apply if you wish to manually and beforehand create the signing and encryption keys.
Note that if you are asked to create a JWK of a certain size for the key, you are to use the following set of commands to generate the token:
1
2
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apereo/cas/master/etc/jwk-gen.jar
java -jar jwk-gen.jar -t oct -s [size]
The outcome would be similar to:
1
2
3
4
5
{
"kty": "oct",
"kid": "...",
"k": "..."
}
The generated value for k
needs to be assigned to the relevant CAS settings. Note that keys generated via
the above algorithm are processed by CAS using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES
) algorithm which is a
specification for the encryption of electronic data established by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.groovy.location=
Transform usernames using a Groovy resource. The location of the resource. Resources can be URLs, or files found either on the classpath or outside somewhere in the file system. In the event the configured resource is a Groovy script, specially if the script set to reload on changes, you may need to adjust the total number ofinotify instances.
On Linux, you may need to add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf :
fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 256 .
You can check the current value via cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances .
In situations and scenarios where CAS is able to automatically watch the underlying resource
for changes and detect updates and modifications dynamically, you may be able to specify the following
setting as either an environment variable or system property with a value of false to disable
the resource watcher: org.apereo.cas.util.io.PathWatcherService .
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.blocking-pattern=
A regular expression that will be used against the username to match for blocking/forbidden values. If a match is found, an exception will be thrown and principal transformation will fail. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.case-conversion=NONE
Indicate whether the principal identifier should be transformed into upper-case, lower-case, etc. Available values are as follows:
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.pattern=
A regular expression that will be used against the provided username for username extractions. On a successful match, the first matched group in the pattern will be used as the extracted username. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.prefix=
Prefix to add to the principal id prior to authentication. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
cas.authn.wsfed[0].principal.principal-transformation.suffix=
Suffix to add to the principal id prior to authentication. This setting supports the Spring Expression Language.
|
Authentication handlers that generally deal with username-password credentials can be configured to transform the user id prior to executing the authentication sequence. Each authentication strategy in CAS provides settings to properly transform the principal. Refer to the relevant settings for the authentication strategy at hand to learn more.
Authentication handlers as part of principal transformation may also be provided a path to a Groovy script to transform the provided username. The outline of the script may take on the following form:
1
2
3
4
String run(final Object... args) {
def (providedUsername,logger) = args
return providedUsername.concat("SomethingElse")
}
Configuration Metadata
The collection of configuration properties listed in this section are automatically generated from the CAS source and components that contain the actual field definitions, types, descriptions, modules, etc. This metadata may not always be 100% accurate, or could be lacking details and sufficient explanations.
Be Selective
This section is meant as a guide only. Do NOT copy/paste the entire collection of settings into your CAS configuration; rather pick only the properties that you need. Do NOT enable settings unless you are certain of their purpose and do NOT copy settings into your configuration only to keep them as reference. All these ideas lead to upgrade headaches, maintenance nightmares and premature aging.
YAGNI
Note that for nearly ALL use cases, declaring and configuring properties listed here is sufficient. You should NOT have to explicitly massage a CAS XML/Java/etc configuration file to design an authentication handler, create attribute release policies, etc. CAS at runtime will auto-configure all required changes for you. If you are unsure about the meaning of a given CAS setting, do NOT turn it on without hesitation. Review the codebase or better yet, ask questions to clarify the intended behavior.
Naming Convention
Property names can be specified in very relaxed terms. For instance cas.someProperty
, cas.some-property
, cas.some_property
are all valid names. While all
forms are accepted by CAS, there are certain components (in CAS and other frameworks used) whose activation at runtime is conditional on a property value, where
this property is required to have been specified in CAS configuration using kebab case. This is both true for properties that are owned by CAS as well as those
that might be presented to the system via an external library or framework such as Spring Boot, etc.
When possible, properties should be stored in lower-case kebab format, such as cas.property-name=value
.
The only possible exception to this rule is when naming actuator endpoints; The name of the
actuator endpoints (i.e. ssoSessions
) MUST remain in camelCase mode.
Settings and properties that are controlled by the CAS platform directly always begin with the prefix cas
. All other settings are controlled and provided
to CAS via other underlying frameworks and may have their own schemas and syntax. BE CAREFUL with
the distinction. Unrecognized properties are rejected by CAS and/or frameworks upon which CAS depends. This means if you somehow misspell a property definition
or fail to adhere to the dot-notation syntax and such, your setting is entirely refused by CAS and likely the feature it controls will never be activated in the
way you intend.
Validation
Configuration properties are automatically validated on CAS startup to report issues with configuration binding, specially if defined CAS settings cannot be recognized or validated by the configuration schema. Additional validation processes are also handled via Configuration Metadata and property migrations applied automatically on startup by Spring Boot and family.
Indexed Settings
CAS settings able to accept multiple values are typically documented with an index, such as cas.some.setting[0]=value
. The index [0]
is meant to be
incremented by the adopter to allow for distinct multiple configuration blocks.
Signed Assertions
CAS is able to ascertain the validity of assertion signatures using dedicated certificate files that are defined
via CAS settings. Certificate files and resources may be defined statically as file-system resources that are
available to CAS to load and use, or the signing resource may point to ADFS federation metadata (either as a URL or XML file).
When using the federation metadata, the signing certificate is extracted from the IDPSSODescriptor
key descriptor
that is marked for signing.
Encrypted Assertions
CAS is able to automatically decrypt SAML assertions that are issued by ADFS. To do this, you will first need to generate a private/public keypair:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
openssl genrsa -out private.key 1024
openssl rsa -pubout -in private.key -out public.key -inform PEM -outform DER
openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -inform PER -outform DER -nocrypt -in private.key -out private.p8
openssl req -new -x509 -key private.key -out x509.pem -days 365
# convert the X509 certificate to DER format
openssl x509 -outform der -in x509.pem -out certificate.crt
Configure CAS to reference the keypair, and configure the relying party trust settings
in ADFS to use the certificate.crt
file for encryption.
Modifying ADFS Claims
The WsFed configuration optionally may allow you to manipulate claims coming from ADFS but before they are inserted into the CAS user principal. The manipulation of the attributes is carried out using an attribute mutator where its logic may be implemented inside a Groovy script and whose path is taught to CAS via settings.
The script may take on the following form:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
import org.apereo.cas.*
import java.util.*
import org.apereo.cas.authentication.*
Map run(final Object... args) {
def (attributes,logger) = args
logger.warn("Mutating attributes {}", attributes)
return [upn: ["CASUser"]]
}
The parameters passed to the script are as follows:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
attributes |
A current Map of attributes provided from ADFS. |
logger |
The object responsible for issuing log messages such as logger.info(...) . |
Note that the execution result of the script MUST ensure that attributes are collected into a Map
where the attribute name, the key, is a simple String
and the attribute value is transformed into a collection.
Handling CAS Logout
An optional step, the casLogoutView.html
can be modified to place a link to ADFS’s logout page.
1
<a href="https://adfs.example.org/adfs/ls/?wa=wsignout1.0">Logout</a>
Alternatively, you may instruct CAS to redirect to the above endpoint after logout operations have executed.
The following settings and properties are available from the CAS configuration catalog:
cas.logout.confirm-logout=false
Before logout, allow the option to confirm on the web interface.
|
cas.logout.follow-service-redirects=false
Whether CAS should be allowed to redirect to an alternative location after logout.
|
cas.logout.redirect-parameter=
The target destination to which CAS should redirect after logout is indicated and extracted by a parameter name of your choosing here. If none specified, the default will be used as
|
cas.logout.redirect-url=
A url to which CAS must immediately redirect after all logout operations have completed. Typically useful in scenarios where CAS is acting as a proxy and needs to redirect to an external identity provider's logout endpoint in order to remove a session, etc.

Per-Service Relying Party Id
In order to specify a relying party identifier per service definition, adjust your service registry to match the following:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
{
"@class" : "org.apereo.cas.services.CasRegisteredService",
"serviceId" : "^https://.+",
"name" : "sample service",
"id" : 100,
"properties" : {
"@class" : "java.util.HashMap",
"wsfed.relyingPartyIdentifier" : {
"@class" : "org.apereo.cas.services.DefaultRegisteredServiceProperty",
"values" : [ "java.util.HashSet", [ "custom-identifier" ] ]
}
}
}
The following properties are available and recognized by CAS for various modules and features:
Name | Default Value | Type | Group |
---|---|---|---|
wsfed.relyingPartyIdentifier
|
|
STRING
|
DELEGATED_AUTHN_WSFED
|
Troubleshooting
Be aware of clock drift issues between CAS and the ADFS server. Validation failures of the response do show up in the logs, and the request is routed back to ADFS again, causing redirect loops.
To enable additional logging, configure the log4j configuration file to add the following levels:
1
2
3
4
5
6
...
<Logger name="org.apereo.cas.support.wsfederation" level="debug" additivity="false">
