. Authentication is the process of identity verification - that is, proving a user actually is who they say they are. For a user to prove their identity, they need to provide some identifying information as well as some sort of proof of that identity that your system understands and trusts. This is done by submitting a user’s principals and credentials to Shiro to see if they match what is expected by the application. Principals are a Subject’s ‘identifying attributes’. Principals can be anything that identifies a Subject, such as a first name (given name), last name (surname or family name), a username, Social Security Number, etc.
Of course things like family names are not very good at uniquely identifying a Subject, so the best principals to use for authentication are unique for an application - typically a username or email address. Login Failure Tip While your code can react to specific exceptions and execute logic as necessary, a security best practice is to only show a generic failure message to an end user in the event of a failure, for example, 'Incorrect username or password.' This ensures no specific information is available to hackers that may be attempting an attack vector.
Remembered vs. Authenticated As shown in the example above, Shiro supports the notion of “remember me” in addition to the normal login process. It is worth pointing out at this time that Shiro makes a very precise distinction between a remembered Subject and an actual authenticated Subject:.
Remembered: A remembered Subject is not anonymous and has a known identity (i.e. Is non-empty). But this identity is remembered from a previous authentication during a previous session. A subject is considered remembered if subject. Returns true.
Apache Shiro is a powerful and easy-to-use Java security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management. Fork me on GitHub. We’ve used the shiro prefix to indicate the shiro tag library namespace. Aug 11, 2015 - This week we will be picking large eared bi-color Mirai corn. Right now we have a small supply of Raritan Rose, a white fleshed peach and are starting to spot pick our Redhavens. The next blog post, hopefully it will be sent out tomorrow, I will be talking about. Sweet and juicy Golden Shiro Plums.
Authenticated: An authenticated Subject is one that has been successfully authenticated (i.e. The login method was invoked without throwing an exception) during the Subject’s current session. A subject is considered authenticated if subject. Returns true. Mutually Exclusive Remembered and authenticated states are mutually exclusive - a true value for one indicates a false value for the other and vice versa. The word ‘authentication’ has a very strong connotation of proof. That is, there is an expected guarantee that the Subject has proven they are who they say they are.
When a user is only remembered from a previous interaction with the application, the state of proof no longer exists: the remembered identity gives the system an idea who that user probably is, but in reality, has no way of absolutely guaranteeing if the remembered Subject represents the expected user. Once the subject is authenticated, they are no longer considered only remembered because their identity would have been verified during the current session. So although many parts of the application can still perform user-specific logic based on the remembered principals, such as customized views, it should typically never perform highly-sensitive operations until the user has legitimately verified their identity by executing a successful authentication attempt. For example, a check to see if a Subject can access financial information should almost always depend on isAuthenticated, not isRemembered, to guarantee an expected and verified identity. The following is a fairly common scenario that helps illustrate why the the distinction between remembered and authenticated is important. Let’s say you’re using. You’ve logged-in successfully and have added a few books to your shopping cart.
But you have to run off to a meeting, but forget to log out. By the time the meeting is over, it’s time to go home and you leave the office. The next day when you come in to work, you realize you didn’t complete your purchase, so you go back to amazon.com. This time, Amazon ‘remembers’ who you are, greets you by name, and still gives you some personalized book recommendations. To Amazon, subject.isRemembered would return true. But, what happens if you try to access your account to update your credit card information to make your book purchase?
While Amazon ‘remembers’ you ( isRemembered true), it cannot guarantee that you are in fact you (for example, maybe a co-worker is using your computer). So before you can perform a sensitive action like updating credit card information, Amazon will force you to login so they can guarantee your identity. After you login, your identity has been verified and to Amazon, isAuthenticated would now be true. This scenario happens so frequently for many types of applications, so the functionality is built in to Shiro so you can leverage it for your own application. Now, whether you use isRemembered or isAuthenticated to customize your views and workflows is up to you, but Shiro will maintain this fundamental state in case you need it. The opposite of authenticating is releasing all known identifying state.
When the Subject is done interacting with the application, you can call subject. To relinquish all identifying information: currentUser.logout; //removes all identifying information and invalidates their session too. When you call logout, any existing Session will be invalidated and any identity will be disassociated (e.g. In a web app, the RememberMe cookie will also be deleted). After a Subject logs-out, the Subject instance is considered anonymous again and, except for web applications, can be re-used for login again if desired. Web Application Notice Because remembered identity in web applications is often persisted with cookies, and cookies can only be deleted before a Response body is committed, it is highly recommended to redirect the end-user to a new view or page immediately after calling subject.logout. This guarantees that any security-related cookies are deleted as expected.
This is a limitation of how HTTP cookies function and not a limitation of Shiro. Until now, we’ve only looked at how to authenticate a Subject from within application code. Now we’ll cover what happens inside Shiro when an authentication attempt occurs. We’ve taken our previous architecture diagram from the chapter, and left only the components relevant to authentication highlighted. Each number represents a step during an authentication attempt: Step 1: Application code invokes the Subject.login method, passing in the constructed AuthenticationToken instance representing the end-user’s principals and credentials.
Step 2: The Subject instance, typically a (or a subclass) delegates to the application’s SecurityManager by calling securityManager.login(token), where the actual authentication work begins. Step 3: The SecurityManager, being a basic ‘umbrella’ component, receives the token and simply delegates to its internal instance by callingauthenticator.
This is almost always a instance, which supports coordinating one or more Realm instances during authentication. The ModularRealmAuthenticator essentially provides a -style paradigm for Apache Shiro (where each Realm is a ‘module’ in PAM terminology). Step 4: If more than one Realm is configured for the application, the ModularRealmAuthenticator instance will initiate a multi- Realm authentication attempt utilizing its configured. Before, during and after the Realms are invoked for authentication, the AuthenticationStrategy will be called to allow it to react to each Realm’s results.
We will cover AuthenticationStrategies soon. Single-Realm Application If only a single Realm is configured, it is called directly - there is no need for an AuthenticationStrategy in a single-Realm application. Step 5: Each configured Realm is consulted to see if it the submitted AuthenticationToken. If so, the supporting Realm’s method will be invoked with the submitted token. The getAuthenticationInfo method effectively represents a single authentication attempt for that particular Realm. We will cover the Realm authentication behavior shortly.
As mentioned earlier, the Shiro SecurityManager implementations default to using a instance. The ModularRealmAuthenticator equally supports applications with single Realm as well as those with multiple realms.
In a single-realm application, the ModularRealmAuthenticator will invoke the single Realm directly. If two or more Realms are configured, it will use an AuthenticationStrategy instance to coordinate how the attempt occurs. We’ll cover AuthenticationStrategies below. If you wish to configure the SecurityManager with a custom Authenticator implementation, you can do so in shiro.ini for example: main.
Authenticator = com.foo.bar.CustomAuthenticator securityManager.authenticator = $authenticator Although in practice, the ModularRealmAuthenticator is probably suitable for most needs. When two or more realms are configured for an application, the ModularRealmAuthenticator relies on an internal component to determine the conditions for which an authentication attempt succeeds or fails. For example, if only one Realm authenticates an AuthenticationToken successfully, but all others fail, is the authentication attempt considered successful? Or must all Realms authenticate successfully for the overall attempt to be considered successful? Or, if a Realm authenticates successfully, is it necessary to consult other Realms further? An AuthenticationStrategy makes the appropriate decision based on an application’s needs.
An AuthenticationStrategy is a stateless component that is consulted 4 times during an authentication attempt (any necessary state required for these 4 interactions will be given as method arguments):. before any of the Realms are invoked. immediately before an individual Realm’s getAuthenticationInfo method is called. immediately after an an individual Realm’s getAuthenticationInfo method is called. after all of the Realms have been invoked Also an AuthenticationStrategy is responsible for aggregating the results from each successful Realm and ‘bundling’ them into a single representation. This final aggregate AuthenticationInfo instance is what is returned by the Authenticator instance and is what Shiro uses to represent the Subject’s final identity (aka Principals). Subject Identity 'View' If you use more than one Realm in your application to acquire account data from multiple data sources, the AuthenticationStrategy is ultimately responsible for the final 'merged' view of the Subject's identity that is seen by the application.
Shiro has 3 concrete AuthenticationStrategy implementations: AuthenticationStrategy class Description If one (or more) Realms authenticate successfully, the overall attempt is considered successful. If none authenticate succesfully, the attempt fails. Only the information returned from the first successfully authenticated Realm will be used. All further Realms will be ignored. If none authenticate successfully, the attempt fails. All configured Realms must authenticate successfully for the overall attempt to be considered successful. If any one does not authenticate successfully, the attempt fails.
The ModularRealmAuthenticator defaults to the AtLeastOneSuccessfulStrategy implementation, as this is the most commonly desired strategy. However, you could configure a different strategy if you wanted: main.
AuthcStrategy = org.apache.shiro.authc.pam.FirstSuccessfulStrategy securityManager.authenticator.authenticationStrategy = $authcStrategy. Custom AuthenticationStrategy If you wanted to create your own AuthenticationStrategy implementation yourself, you could use the as a starting point.
The AbstractAuthenticationStrategy class automatically implements the 'bundling'/aggregation behavior of merging the results from each Realm into a single AuthenticationInfo instance. It is very important to point out that the ModularRealmAuthenticator will interact with Realm instances in iteration order. The ModularRealmAuthenticator has access to the Realm instances configured on the SecurityManager. When performing an authentication attempt, it will iterate over that collection, and for each Realm that supports the submitted AuthenticationToken, invoke the Realm’s getAuthenticationInfo method. When using Shiro’s INI configuration format, you should configure Realms in the order you want them to process an AuthenticationToken. For example, in shiro.ini, Realms will be consulted in the order in which they are defined in the INI file. That is, for the following shiro.ini example: blahRealm = com.company.blah.Realm.
FooRealm = com.company.foo.Realm. BarRealm = com.company.another.Realm The SecurityManager will be configured with those three realms, and during an authentication attempt, blahRealm, fooRealm, and barRealm will be invoked in that order. This has basically the same effect as if the following line were defined: securityManager.realms = $blahRealm, $fooRealm, $barRealm Using this approach, you don’t need to set the securityManager's realms property - every realm defined will automatically be added to the realms property. If you want to explicitly define the order in which the realms will be interacted with, regardless of how they are defined, you can set the securityManager’s realms property as an explicit collection property.
For example, if using the definition above, but you wanted the blahRealm to be consulted last instead of first: blahRealm = com.company.blah.Realm. FooRealm = com.company.foo.Realm.
BarRealm = com.company.another.Realm securityManager.realms = $fooRealm, $barRealm, $blahRealm. Explicit Realm Inclusion When you explicitly configure the securityManager.realms property, only the referenced realms will be configured on the SecurityManager. This means you could define 5 realms in INI, but only actually use 3 if 3 are referenced for the realms property. This is different than implicit realm ordering where all available realms will be used. This chapter covers Shiro’s master workflow explaining how an authentication attempt occurs. The internal workflow of what happens in a single realm as it is consulted during authentication (i.e. ‘Step 5’ above) is covered in the chapter’s section.

First off, the coming weekend, as it looks right now, will be hot and humid hopefully starting off on Thursday night with some much needed rainwe will see. This week we will be picking large eared bi-color Mirai corn. Towards the end of the week we will also be picking our white Mirai along with Essense, a delicious non-Mirai bi-color sweet corn. The next few days we will also finish picking our Bon Appetit sweet corn. Right now we have an excellent selection of fruit that includes peaches, summer apples and juicy, sweet plums. Right now we have a small supply of Raritan Rose, a white fleshed peach and are starting to spot pick our Redhavens. Hopefully by the end of the week and next week we will have enough Redhavens to sell them in half bushels for freezing and canning.
Keep reading the blog to know when this will take place. While we are picking green beans daily, the supply is very low right now because of a partial crop failure –the seeds didn’t come up right. I believe this patch is our number “six” one. The beans are great tasting just not many plants there. Our next patch, which seems like a really great one, looks like it will be mature enough to pick either Thursday or Friday. After this patch we still will have two more patches to pick and both patches look good so far.
The next blog post, hopefully it will be sent out tomorrow, I will be talking about tomatoes, apples and some of our other crops. However, I would like to give you a heads-up on our Muskmelon. First off, they look great! When will they be ripe?
Muskmelons come on real quick and since for maximum sweetness and flavor they must be picked only at full slip, it is hard to set a date. If the year is normal, one day, say Wednesday, we find two melons ripe, the next day we find 5 bushels ripe and by Friday of that week we have a pick-up load of nice ripe melons! How are they now? This might be the day we find two melons ripe but that is just a guess. Beautiful Raritan Rose white-fleshed peaches What we are picking today: Bi-color Mirai and Bon Appetit sweet corn Green and yellow beans Melba, Viking, and Jersey Mac summer apples SALE: $8 a 1/2 bushel for Melba Raritan Rose white-fleshed peach and Red Haven peach by the 1/4 peck Golden Shiro plums Santa Rosa plums Zucchini and yellow summer squash Spaghetti squash Red Norland potatoes (red skin with white flesh), RedGold potatoes (red skin with yellow flesh), and Yukon Gold potatoes (yellow skin with gold flesh).

Today looks like there is just a slight chance of a shower. We are going through the first significant dry spell this summer, which is quite unusual.
This year we have had many wonderful timely rains which is obvious if you are stopping at the stand the next few days and taking a look at our Mirai bi-color sweet corn we have been picking. I still can’t believe its size! BTW its taste is also unbelievably yummy–tender, sweet with the true old fashioned sweet corn flavor! We are also picking another favorite large eared corn today — Bon Appetit which might not be as sweet as Mirai but is really great tasting corn and if you cut it off to freeze or can you will probably even get more corn off of it than the Mirai! Keep in mind we will be going thru an August hot spell starting this weekend. There is a forecast out there for temperatures approaching 110F northwest of here in the Dakotas and western Minnesota by the weekend. Thank God it’s not supposed to get that hot here!
That would be real, real scary! Shiro Golden Plums Excerpts from this week’s: While we are well into the harvest season we will be starting to pick many new vegetables and fruits in the next few days.
For instance, we just started picking our famous bi-color Mirai sweet corn on Saturday. While it is at least as sweet, tender and flavorful as it was in other years, I don’t remember it producing While we have been picking white-fleshed peaches for a few days, we only have a small supply of them so we will be done with them shortly. They are extremely fine textured and juicy-sweet, and their fragrant flesh reminds me for some reason of What we are picking today: Bi-color Mirai and Bon Appetit sweet corn Green Beans Melba, Viking, and Jersey Mac summer apples Raritan Rose white-fleshed peach and Red Haven peach later today Golden Shiro plums Zucchini and yellow summer squash Spaghetti squash Red Norland potatoes (red skin with white flesh), RedGold potatoes (red skin with yellow flesh), and Yukon Gold potatoes (yellow skin with gold flesh).

Today we will be starting to pick our famous bi-color Mirai Sweet Corn. It has the best features of all types of sweet corn. It not only is exceptionally sweet and keeps its sweetness longer than most types of sweet corn, it is very tender and loaded with true sweet corn flavor. Also, like all crops we grow it was not developed thru GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) technology but rather thru the natural breeding process that is similar to what was done by Gregor Johann Mendel in the mid and late 1800’s. Father Mendel was a German-speaking Moravian scientist and Catholic Monk who gained posthumous fame as the founder of the modern science of genetics. Keep in mind that while we usually think of apples being a fall crop, there are thousands of varieties of apples that when planted in Newaygo County will ripen from early July –that’s right JULY — thru October and even so late that they will never ripen fully in OUR climate. The latest apples we grow, Granny Smith, Fuji and a few Braeburn ripen in early November here and in some years they don’t ripen well at all!
Right now we are picking really beautiful Melba apples which has McIntosh in their blood. They are an excellent apple. Their only possible problem is that their skin is so thin they tend to bruise easily so they have to be treated with TLC from the time of picking to consuming. Tukey, former head of the Michigan State University Department of Horticulture from 1945-1963 stated in one of his books that Melba was his all time favorite apple!

Beautiful weather continues today. Although the rest of the week looks to be a bit warmer than it did yesterday, it will still be quite pleasant and ideal for comfortably canning and freezing sweet corn. The large eared Bon Appetit we are picking right now also makes the job easier! This morning we will be going thru our early slicing-sized tomato field and picking the ripe tomatoes. While we won’t have a big supply today, we should at least have some. From past experience, our supply of slicers will rapidly increase the next few days.
Late this afternoon we will be picking our delicious, fine-textured white-fleshed Raritan Rose peaches and will have them up for sale tomorrow. The weather was beautiful yesterday and the blue skies and clouds were picturesque! Today looks like a repeat!

We are very grateful for that and the fact that the T-storm that moved across the farm and the Newaygo Chain-Of-Lakes could better be described as a T-Shower than a T-Storm since it wasn’t very strong.
An interesting note though. If you scroll down a bit here you will see a photo of a rainbow taken by my daughter Bernadette after the heart of the storm moved past. At the time the thunder sounded quite distant and the storm seemed to have moved far, far to the east.
Then when everything seemed nice and quiet an intense roll of thunder shook the house! For a second I didn’t know that the sound was caused by lightning and not some sort of explosion. After that everything was quiet and the storm was over. Lesson learned here?
I go back to the famed Yankee catcher Yogi Berra’s famous comment: “It ain’t over till its over!” This seems also to apply to thunderstorms! Take care not only when a thunderstorm approaches but also when it is departing! Excerpts from our weekly Our tomatoes are starting to ripen!
