I have a service that has HTTP Basic Auth. In front of it I have nginx Ingress, who also has basic-auth. How can I attach Authorization header with the credentials after Sign In with the Ingress, to achieve Single-Sign-On?
This is the configuration of my Ingress:
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-realm: Authentication Required
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-secret: kibana-user-basic-auth
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-type: basic
name: kibana-user
namespace: {{.Release.Namespace}}
spec:
tls:
- secretName: kibana-tls
hosts:
- {{.Values.ingress.user.host}}
rules:
- host: {{.Values.ingress.user.host}}
http:
paths:
- backend:
serviceName: kibana-logging
servicePort: {{ .Values.kibana.service.internalPort }}
path: /I guess that you can propagate Authorization header within nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-response-headers annotation:
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-response-headers: Authorization
Or, alternative way you can achieve the same approach by applying proxy_set_header inside the target Ingress location via configuration snippet annotation as described here:
annotations:
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: |
proxy_set_header Authorization "Basic base64 encode value";You could use the annotation nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: proxy_set_header Authorization $http_authorization; to forward the Authorization header to the back end service.
The Ingress resource should looks like this
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-realm: Authentication Required
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-secret: kibana-user-basic-auth
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-type: basic
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet: "proxy_set_header Authorization $http_authorization;"
name: kibana-user
namespace: {{.Release.Namespace}}
spec:
tls:
- secretName: kibana-tls
hosts:
- {{.Values.ingress.user.host}}
rules:
- host: {{.Values.ingress.user.host}}
http:
paths:
- backend:
serviceName: kibana-logging
servicePort: {{ .Values.kibana.service.internalPort }}
path: /
