Webui policy with remote-user allowed causing issue

Hi,

I am trying to set up privacyidea with remote-user-allowed policy.
The remote-user header is passed from haproxy load balancer to nginx/wsgi
that serves privacyidea.
However, the request fails with a response stating that "‘Request’ has no
attribute ‘all_data’’.

The traceback points to lib/python2.7/dist-packages/privacyidea/lib/utils.py:
get_client_ip():
mapped_ip = request.all_data.get(“client”)

I changed the line to the below and everything seems work fine now:
mapped_ip = request.all_data.get(“client”) if hasattr(request,‘all_data’)
else None

I am not sure if I am missing something here to make remote-user work?

Best regards,

Hi Quynh,

can you please check for the Request anyway?
This will help track down the problem a lot.
E.g. open the developer view with Ctrl-I and choose the network tab.

It might be the POST /auth request. Can you please verify this?

Thanks a lot

Hi Cornelius,

Thanks for the response.
By the request, I just meant normal browsing to the webui with a web
browser. No crafted request.

My goal is to allow client cert login to privacyidea webui. The one
doing the cert authentication for clients is haproxy. The setup is:

Haproxy → Nginx/uwsgi (privacyidea)
X-Remote-User → uwsgi_param REMOTE-USER $http_x_remote_webui

A webui policy is added to allow remote-user for all realms/clients.

When browsing to the webui, I received the error response as
mentioned, and the log showed as mentioned.

I will take a look at the calls mentioned in your response and update
here if I find anything.

Best regards,

Hello,

what request are you issuing?
i.e. what are you doing/trying to do?

The all_data gets added to the request object in some before_request
statement. Probably this is missing or disordered in the request you
are sending.

If you are using developer mode in your browser you can identify the
request. This would be quite helpful.

Thanks a lot and kind regards

I understand. This is the call to the static webui/login.py.
There was no before_request and thus there was not request.all_data

Fixed it.
So that also this static request will have all_data.

Hi Cornelius,

I attached the screenshots of the capture.
Haproxy is a separate node, and simply add and send the X-Remote-User
header (which is deprived from the client cert info) to nginx.
There is no POST request, I believe.

Please let me know if you need any other information.
