# SSO manager ## API docs [API docs](api.md) ## Server set up The server requires: * NodeJS 13.x * LDAP server ### OpenLDAP configuration #### Password hashing (required) Passwords are stored using `{SSHA512}` (salted SHA-512). The `pw-sha2` module must be loaded in slapd before creating or resetting any passwords. ```bash ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// << 'EOF' dn: cn=module{0},cn=config changetype: modify add: olcModuleLoad olcModuleLoad: pw-sha2 EOF ``` Verify the module is working: ```bash slappasswd -h {SSHA512} -s testpassword ``` Existing `{MD5}` password hashes continue to work after the module is loaded — users are migrated to SSHA512 the next time they change their password. #### Account locking (required for active/inactive toggle) User activation and deactivation uses the OpenLDAP `ppolicy` overlay. When a user is marked inactive, `pwdAccountLockedTime` is set on their entry, which causes all LDAP binds to fail — including logins to Emby, Gitea, and any other LDAP-backed service. **1. Load the ppolicy module:** ```bash ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// << 'EOF' dn: cn=module{0},cn=config changetype: modify add: olcModuleLoad olcModuleLoad: ppolicy EOF ``` **2. Add the overlay to your user database:** ```bash ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// << 'EOF' dn: olcOverlay=ppolicy,olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config objectClass: olcOverlayConfig objectClass: olcPPolicyConfig olcOverlay: ppolicy olcPPolicyDefault: cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,dc=theta42,dc=com olcPPolicyUseLockout: TRUE olcPPolicyHashCleartext: FALSE EOF ``` **3. Create the policies container and default policy:** ```bash ldapadd -x -D "cn=admin,dc=theta42,dc=com" -W << 'EOF' dn: ou=policies,dc=theta42,dc=com objectClass: organizationalUnit ou: policies dn: cn=ppolicy,ou=policies,dc=theta42,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalRole objectClass: pwdPolicy cn: ppolicy pwdAttribute: 2.5.4.35 pwdLockout: FALSE pwdMustChange: FALSE pwdAllowUserChange: TRUE EOF ``` Verify by locking a test account and confirming bind fails: ```bash ldapmodify -x -D "cn=admin,dc=theta42,dc=com" -W << 'EOF' dn: cn=testuser,ou=people,dc=theta42,dc=com changetype: modify replace: pwdAccountLockedTime pwdAccountLockedTime: 000001010000Z EOF ``` #### Custom schema (required for date of birth) User accounts store a `dateOfBirth` field (ISO 8601 `YYYY-MM-DD`) for age verification. This requires a custom attribute type and auxiliary objectClass to be loaded into the OpenLDAP schema before any accounts are created. **Load the schema:** ```bash ldapadd -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// << 'EOF' dn: cn=theta42,cn=schema,cn=config objectClass: olcSchemaConfig cn: theta42 olcAttributeTypes: ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.99999.1.1 NAME 'dateOfBirth' DESC 'Date of birth in ISO 8601 format YYYY-MM-DD' EQUALITY caseExactMatch SUBSTR caseExactSubstringsMatch SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 SINGLE-VALUE ) olcObjectClasses: ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.99999.2.1 NAME 'theta42Person' DESC 'Theta42 SSO extended person attributes' AUXILIARY MAY ( dateOfBirth ) ) EOF ``` Verify the schema loaded: ```bash ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b "cn=theta42,cn=schema,cn=config" olcAttributeTypes olcObjectClasses ``` > **Note:** The OID prefix `1.3.6.1.4.1.99999` is used for internal/private schemas. If this deployment is ever connected to a federated directory, register a proper PEN at https://www.iana.org/assignments/enterprise-numbers and update the OIDs. #### Required LDAP groups | Group | Purpose | |-------|---------| | `app_sso_admin` | Full admin access: manage users, groups, OAuth clients | | `app_sso_oauth_admin` | Manage OAuth clients only |
