How to: Create a Custom Policy Assertion that Secures SOAP Messages

  • Articolo

Create a custom policy assertion to enforce security requirements or modify SOAP messages when one of the Turnkey Security Assertions does not meet the application's needs.

There are two categories of custom policy assertions: Those that secure SOAP messages and those that do not. This topic provides the steps for creating a custom policy assertion that secures SOAP messages. The procedure creates a custom policy assertion that secures SOAP messages that are sent to and from the Web service using X509SecurityToken security tokens. For details about creating a custom policy assertion that does not secure SOAP messages, see How to: Create a Custom Policy Assertion that does not Secure SOAP Messages.

To create a custom policy assertion that secures a SOAP message exchange

  1. Open the project containing the Web service.

  2. Add a new class to the project.

    1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the project name, and then click Add New Item….
    2. Select Class and provide a name for the class.
    3. Click Add to dismiss the dialog and add the class to the project.

  3. Add references to the Microsoft.Web.Services3, System.Web.Services, System.Security, and System.Xml assemblies.

    1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the project name, and then click Add Reference.
    2. Click the .NET tab, press and hold the CTRL key, and click Microsoft.Web.Services3.dll, System.Web.Services.dll, System.Security.dll, and System.Xml.dll.
    3. Click OK to dismiss the dialog.

  4. Add the Imports statements or using directives that are shown in the following code example to the top of the file for the new class.

    Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic

Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates

Imports Microsoft.Web.Services3
Imports Microsoft.Web.Services3.Design
Imports Microsoft.Web.Services3.Security
Imports Microsoft.Web.Services3.Security.Tokens

    using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;
using System.Xml;

using Microsoft.Web.Services3;
using Microsoft.Web.Services3.Design;
using Microsoft.Web.Services3.Security;
using Microsoft.Web.Services3.Security.Tokens;

  5. Create a custom input filter for the Web service.

    1. Add a class that derives from the ReceiveSecurityFilter class.
      The following code example defines a class that derives from the ReceiveSecurityFilter class.

      Class CustomSecurityServerInputFilter
    Inherits ReceiveSecurityFilter

      class CustomSecurityServerInputFilter : ReceiveSecurityFilter
{

    2. Specify the security requirements for incoming SOAP messages to the Web service by overriding the ValidateMessageSecurity method.
      The following code example specifies that SOAP messages that are sent to the Web service must be signed and encrypted. The security tokens that are used to sign and encrypt the SOAP message are saved in the OperationState property, which can be accessed later by a Web service's custom output filter if a SOAP response is returned to the client. The security tokens are stored in a user-defined class named RequestState.

      Public Overrides Sub ValidateMessageSecurity(ByVal envelope As SoapEnvelope, ByVal security As Security)
    Dim clientToken As SecurityToken = Nothing
    Dim serverToken As SecurityToken = Nothing

    ' Ensure incoming SOAP messages are signed and encrypted.
    Dim elem As ISecurityElement
    For Each elem In security.Elements
        If TypeOf elem Is MessageSignature Then
            Dim sig As MessageSignature = CType(elem, MessageSignature)
            clientToken = sig.SigningToken
        End If

        If TypeOf elem Is EncryptedData Then
            Dim enc As EncryptedData = CType(elem, EncryptedData)
            serverToken = enc.SecurityToken
        End If
    Next elem

    If clientToken Is Nothing OrElse serverToken Is Nothing Then
        Throw New Exception("Incoming message did not meet security requirements")
    End If
    Dim state As New RequestState(clientToken, serverToken)

    envelope.Context.OperationState.Set(state)
End Sub 'ValidateMessageSecurity

      public override void  ValidateMessageSecurity(SoapEnvelope envelope, Security security)
{
    SecurityToken clientToken = null;
    SecurityToken serverToken = null;

    // Ensure incoming SOAP messages are signed and encrypted.
    foreach (ISecurityElement elem in security.Elements)
    {
        if (elem is MessageSignature)
        {
            MessageSignature sig = (MessageSignature)elem;
            clientToken = sig.SigningToken;
        }

        if (elem is EncryptedData)
        {
            EncryptedData enc = (EncryptedData)elem;
            serverToken = enc.SecurityToken;
        }
    }

    if (clientToken == null || serverToken == null)
        throw new Exception("Incoming message did not meet security requirements");

    RequestState state = new RequestState(clientToken, serverToken);

    envelope.Context.OperationState.Set(state);
}

  6. Create a custom output filter for the Web service.

    1. Add a class that derives from the SendSecurityFilter class.
      The following example defines a class that derives from the SendSecurityFilter class.

      Class CustomSecurityServerOutputFilter
    Inherits SendSecurityFilter

      class CustomSecurityServerOutputFilter : SendSecurityFilter
{

    2. Secure SOAP responses that are sent from the Web service by overriding the SecureMessage method.
      The following code example signs and encrypts SOAP responses using the security tokens that encrypted and signed the SOAP request, respectively. The security tokens are retrieved from the OperationState property that was set by the Web service's custom input filter.

      Public Overrides Sub SecureMessage(ByVal envelope As SoapEnvelope, ByVal security As Security)
    Dim state As RequestState = envelope.Context.OperationState.Get(Of RequestState)()

    ' Sign the message with the Web service's security token.
    security.Tokens.Add(state.ServerToken)
    security.Elements.Add(New MessageSignature(state.ServerToken))

    ' Encrypt the message with the client's security token.
    security.Elements.Add(New EncryptedData(state.ClientToken))
End Sub 'SecureMessage

      public override void SecureMessage(SoapEnvelope envelope, Security security)
{
    RequestState state = envelope.Context.OperationState.Get<RequestState>();

    // Sign the message with the Web service's security token.
    security.Tokens.Add(state.ServerToken);
    security.Elements.Add(new MessageSignature(state.ServerToken));

    // Encrypt the message with the client's security token.
    security.Elements.Add(new EncryptedData(state.ClientToken));
}

  7. Create a custom output filter for the client.

    1. Add a class that derives from the SendSecurityFilter class.
      The following code example defines a class that derives from the SendSecurityFilter class.

      Class CustomSecurityClientOutputFilter
    Inherits SendSecurityFilter

      class CustomSecurityClientOutputFilter : SendSecurityFilter
{

    2. Secure SOAP responses that are sent from the client by overriding the SecureMessage method.
      The following code example signs and encrypts SOAP responses using the security tokens that are created in the custom filter's constructor. The security tokens that are used to sign and encrypt the SOAP message are saved in the OperationState property, which can be accessed later by a client's custom output filter to verify security requirements on SOAP responses that are returned by the Web service.

          Public Sub New(ByVal parentAssertion As CustomSecurityAssertion)
        MyBase.New(parentAssertion.ServiceActor, True)
        ' Get the client security token.
        clientToken = X509TokenProvider.CreateToken(StoreLocation.CurrentUser, StoreName.My, "CN=WSE2QuickStartClient")

        ' Get the server security token.
        serverToken = X509TokenProvider.CreateToken(StoreLocation.LocalMachine, StoreName.My, "CN=WSE2QuickStartServer")
    End Sub 'New



...


        Public Overrides Sub SecureMessage(ByVal envelope As SoapEnvelope, ByVal security As Security)
        ' Sign the SOAP message with the client's security token.
        security.Tokens.Add(clientToken)
        security.Elements.Add(New MessageSignature(clientToken))

        ' Encrypt the SOAP message with the client's security token.
        security.Elements.Add(New EncryptedData(serverToken))

        ' Encrypt the client's security token with the server's security token.
        security.Elements.Add(New EncryptedData(serverToken, "#" + clientToken.Id))

        ' Store the client and server security tokens in the request state.
        Dim state As New RequestState(clientToken, serverToken)

        ' Store the request state in the proxy's operation state. 
        ' This makes these tokens accessible when SOAP responses are 
        ' verified to have sufficient security requirements.
        envelope.Context.OperationState.Set(state)
    End Sub 'SecureMessage

          public CustomSecurityClientOutputFilter(CustomSecurityAssertion parentAssertion)
        : base(parentAssertion.ServiceActor,true )
    {
        // Get the client security token.
        clientToken = X509TokenProvider.CreateToken(StoreLocation.CurrentUser, StoreName.My, "CN=WSE2QuickStartClient");

        // Get the server security token.
        serverToken = X509TokenProvider.CreateToken(StoreLocation.LocalMachine, StoreName.My, "CN=WSE2QuickStartServer");
    }



...


        public override void SecureMessage(SoapEnvelope envelope, Security security)
    {
        // Sign the SOAP message with the client's security token.
        security.Tokens.Add(clientToken);
        security.Elements.Add(new MessageSignature(clientToken));

        // Encrypt the SOAP message with the client's security token.
        security.Elements.Add(new EncryptedData(serverToken));

        // Encrypt the client's security token with the server's security token.
        security.Elements.Add(new EncryptedData(serverToken, "#" + clientToken.Id));

        // Store the client and server security tokens in the request state.
        RequestState state = new RequestState(clientToken, serverToken);

        // Store the request state in the proxy's operation state. 
        // This makes these tokens accessible when SOAP responses are 
        // verified to have sufficient security requirements.
        envelope.Context.OperationState.Set(state);
    }

  8. Create a custom input filter for the client.

    1. Add a class that derives from the ReceiveSecurityFilter class.
      The following code example defines a class that derives from the ReceiveSecurityFilter class.

      Class CustomSecurityClientInputFilter
    Inherits ReceiveSecurityFilter

      class CustomSecurityClientInputFilter : ReceiveSecurityFilter
{

    2. Enforce the security requirements for SOAP responses from the Web service by overriding the ValidateMessageSecurity method.
      The following code example ensures that SOAP responses are signed using the security token that is used to encrypt the SOAP request and that is encrypted by the security token that signed the SOAP request. The security tokens are retrieved from the OperationState property that was set by the client's custom output filter.

      Public Overrides Sub ValidateMessageSecurity(ByVal envelope As SoapEnvelope, ByVal security As Security)
    Dim state As RequestState
    Dim signed As Boolean = False
    Dim encrypted As Boolean = False

    ' Get the request state out of the operation state.
    state = envelope.Context.OperationState.Get(Of RequestState)()

    ' Make sure the message was signed with the server's security token.
    Dim elem As ISecurityElement
    For Each elem In security.Elements
        If TypeOf elem Is MessageSignature Then
            Dim sig As MessageSignature = CType(elem, MessageSignature)

            If sig.SigningToken.Equals(state.ServerToken) Then
                signed = True
            End If
        End If
        If TypeOf elem Is EncryptedData Then
            Dim enc As EncryptedData = CType(elem, EncryptedData)

            If enc.SecurityToken.Equals(state.ClientToken) Then
                encrypted = True
            End If
        End If
    Next elem
    If Not signed OrElse Not encrypted Then
        Throw New Exception("Response message does not meet security requirements")
    End If
End Sub 'ValidateMessageSecurity

      public override void ValidateMessageSecurity(SoapEnvelope envelope, Security security)
{
    RequestState state;
    bool signed = false;
    bool encrypted = false;

    // Get the request state out of the operation state.
    state = envelope.Context.OperationState.Get<RequestState>();

    // Make sure the message was signed with the server's security token.
    foreach (ISecurityElement elem in security.Elements)
    {
        if (elem is MessageSignature)
        {
            MessageSignature sig = (MessageSignature)elem;

            if (sig.SigningToken.Equals(state.ServerToken))
                signed = true;
        }

        if (elem is EncryptedData)
        {
            EncryptedData enc = (EncryptedData)elem;

            if (enc.SecurityToken.Equals(state.ClientToken))
                encrypted = true;
        }
    }

    if (!signed || !encrypted)
        throw new Exception("Response message does not meet security requirements");
}

  9. Create a class that represents the custom policy assertion.

    1. Create a class that derives from the SecurityPolicyAssertion class.
      The following code example defines a class that derives from the SecurityPolicyAssertion class.

      Class CustomSecurityAssertion
    Inherits SecurityPolicyAssertion

      class CustomSecurityAssertion : SecurityPolicyAssertion
{

    2. Specify the Web service's custom input filter by overriding the CreateServiceInputFilter method.
      When a custom policy assertion does not enforce security on SOAP requests that are sent to the Web service, set the return value of the CreateServiceInputFilter method to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
      The following code example adds a custom input filter for the Web service.

      Public Overrides Function CreateServiceInputFilter(ByVal context As FilterCreationContext) As SoapFilter
    Return New CustomSecurityServerInputFilter(Me)
End Function 'CreateServiceInputFilter

      public override SoapFilter CreateServiceInputFilter(FilterCreationContext context)
{
    return new CustomSecurityServerInputFilter(this);
}

    3. Specify the Web service's custom output filter by overriding the CreateServiceOutputFilter method.
      When a custom policy assertion does not enforce security on SOAP responses that are sent by the Web service, set the return value of the CreateServiceOutputFilter method to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
      The following code example adds a custom output filter for the Web service.

      Public Overrides Function CreateServiceOutputFilter(ByVal context As FilterCreationContext) As SoapFilter
    Return New CustomSecurityServerOutputFilter(Me)
End Function 'CreateServiceOutputFilter

      public override SoapFilter CreateServiceOutputFilter(FilterCreationContext context)
{
    return new CustomSecurityServerOutputFilter(this);
}

    4. Specify the client's custom input filter by overriding the CreateClientInputFilter method.
      When a custom policy assertion does not enforce security on SOAP responses that are received by the client, set the return value of the CreateClientInputFilter method to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic)
      The following code example adds a custom input filter for the client.

      Public Overrides Function CreateClientInputFilter(ByVal context As FilterCreationContext) As SoapFilter
    Return Nothing
End Function 'CreateClientInputFilter

      public override SoapFilter CreateClientInputFilter(FilterCreationContext context)
{
    return new CustomSecurityClientInputFilter(this);
}

    5. Specify the client's custom output filter by overriding the CreateClientOutputFilter method.
      When a custom policy assertion does not enforce security on SOAP requests that are sent by the client, set the return value of the CreateClientOutputFilter method to a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
      The following code example adds a custom output filter for the client.

      Public Overrides Function CreateClientOutputFilter(ByVal context As FilterCreationContext) As SoapFilter
    Return Nothing
End Function 'CreateClientOutputFilter

      public override SoapFilter CreateClientOutputFilter(FilterCreationContext context)
{
    return new CustomSecurityClientOutputFilter(this);
}

    6. Add code to parse the custom XML elements and attributes that can be placed in a policy file for this custom policy assertion by overriding the ReadXml and GetExtensions methods.
      Like the turnkey security assertions, custom policy assertions can optionally provide an XML element that is used to specify the custom policy assertion's options in a policy file. The XML element can contain child elements and attributes that specify the options for the custom policy assertion.
      A System.Xml.XmlReader is passed into the ReadXml method with the reader positioned on the XML element for the custom policy assertion. The name of the XML element is specified when the custom policy assertion is registered in the policy file using an <extension> Element. Use the System.Xml.XmlReader to retrieve the custom policy assertion's options that are set in the policy file.
      Override the GetExtensions method to associate the name of the XML element that is used to represent the policy assertion in a policy file with the type that implements the policy assertion.
      Typically, it is best to provide support for reading an XML element from a policy file for the custom policy assertion, so that policy for the application can be configured at deployment time to match the application's environment.
      The following code example verifies that the current element is named CustomSecurityAssertion and then reads it. To see an example policy file with the custom policy assertion, see How to: Secure an Application Using a Custom Policy Assertion.

              Public Overrides Sub ReadXml(ByVal reader As XmlReader, ByVal extensions As IDictionary(Of String, Type))
            If reader Is Nothing Then
                Throw New ArgumentNullException("reader")
            End If
            If extensions Is Nothing Then
                Throw New ArgumentNullException("extensions")
            End If
            Dim isEmpty As Boolean = reader.IsEmptyElement
            MyBase.ReadAttributes(reader)
            reader.ReadStartElement("CustomSecurityAssertion")

            If Not isEmpty Then
                ' Read the contents of the <clientToken> element.
                If reader.MoveToContent() = XmlNodeType.Element AndAlso reader.Name = "clientToken" Then
                    reader.ReadStartElement()
                    reader.MoveToContent()

                    ' Get the registed security token provider for X.509 certificate security credentials. 
                    Dim type As Type = extensions(reader.Name)
                    Dim instance As Object = Activator.CreateInstance(type)

                    If instance Is Nothing Then
                        Throw New InvalidOperationException(String.Format(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, "Unable to instantiate policy extension of type 0End.", type.AssemblyQualifiedName))
                    End If
                    Dim clientProvider As TokenProvider(Of X509SecurityToken) = CType(instance, TokenProvider(Of X509SecurityToken))

                    ' Read the child elements that provide the details about the client's X.509 certificate. 
                    clientProvider.ReadXml(reader, extensions)
                    Me.ClientX509TokenProvider = clientProvider
                    reader.ReadEndElement()
                End If
                ' Read the contents of the <serviceToken> element.
                If reader.MoveToContent() = XmlNodeType.Element AndAlso reader.Name = "serviceToken" Then
                    reader.ReadStartElement()
                    reader.MoveToContent()

                    ' Get the registed security token provider for X.509 certificate security credentials. 
                    Dim type As Type = extensions(reader.Name)
                    Dim instance As Object = Activator.CreateInstance(type)

                    If instance Is Nothing Then
                        Throw New InvalidOperationException(String.Format(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, "Unable to instantiate policy extension of type 0End.", type.AssemblyQualifiedName))
                    End If
                    Dim serviceProvider As TokenProvider(Of X509SecurityToken) = CType(instance, TokenProvider(Of X509SecurityToken))

                    ' Read the child elements that provide the details about the client's X.509 certificate. 
                    serviceProvider.ReadXml(reader, extensions)
                    Me.ServiceX509TokenProvider = serviceProvider
                    reader.ReadEndElement()
                End If
                MyBase.ReadElements(reader, extensions)
                reader.ReadEndElement()
            End If
        End Sub
