# Class KeyStoreLoginModule

java.lang.Object
com.sun.security.auth.module.KeyStoreLoginModule

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `LoginModule`

public class KeyStoreLoginModule extends Object implements LoginModule
Provides a JAAS login module that prompts for a key store alias and populates the subject with the alias's principal and credentials. Stores an `X500Principal` for the subject distinguished name of the first certificate in the alias's credentials in the subject's principals, the alias's certificate path in the subject's public credentials, and a `X500PrivateCredential` whose certificate is the first certificate in the alias's certificate path and whose private key is the alias's private key in the subject's private credentials.

Recognizes the following options in the configuration file:

`keyStoreURL`
  A URL that specifies the location of the key store. Defaults to a URL pointing to the .keystore file in the directory specified by the `user.home` system property. The input stream from this URL is passed to the `KeyStore.load` method. "NONE" may be specified if a `null` stream must be passed to the `KeyStore.load` method. "NONE" should be specified if the KeyStore resides on a hardware token device, for example.
`keyStoreType`
  The key store type. If not specified, defaults to the result of calling `KeyStore.getDefaultType()`. If the type is "PKCS11", then keyStoreURL must be "NONE" and privateKeyPasswordURL must not be specified.
`keyStoreProvider`
  The key store provider. If not specified, uses the standard search order to find the provider.
`keyStoreAlias`
  The alias in the key store to login as. Required when no callback handler is provided. No default value.
`keyStorePasswordURL`
  A URL that specifies the location of the key store password. Required when no callback handler is provided and `protected` is false. No default value.
`privateKeyPasswordURL`
  A URL that specifies the location of the specific private key password needed to access the private key for this alias. The keystore password is used if this value is needed and not specified.
`protected`
  This value should be set to "true" if the KeyStore has a separate, protected authentication path (for example, a dedicated PIN-pad attached to a smart card). Defaults to "false". If "true" keyStorePasswordURL and privateKeyPasswordURL must not be specified.

- ## Constructor Details

  - ### KeyStoreLoginModule

    public KeyStoreLoginModule()
    Creates a `KeyStoreLoginModule`.

- ## Method Details

  - ### initialize

    public void initialize(Subject subject, CallbackHandler callbackHandler, Map<String,?> sharedState, Map<String,?> options)
    Initialize this `LoginModule`.
    Specified by:
      `initialize` in interface `LoginModule`
    Parameters:
      `subject` - the `Subject` to be authenticated.
      `callbackHandler` - a `CallbackHandler` for communicating with the end user (prompting for usernames and passwords, for example), which may be `null`.
      `sharedState` - shared `LoginModule` state.
      `options` - options specified in the login `Configuration` for this particular `LoginModule`.

  - ### login

    public boolean login() throws LoginException
    Authenticate the user.

    Get the Keystore alias and relevant passwords. Retrieve the alias's principal and credentials from the Keystore.

    Specified by:
      `login` in interface `LoginModule`
    Returns:
      true in all cases (this `LoginModule` should not be ignored).
    Throws:
      `FailedLoginException` - if the authentication fails.
      `LoginException` - if the authentication fails

  - ### commit

    public boolean commit() throws LoginException
    Abstract method to commit the authentication process (phase 2).

    This method is called if the LoginContext's overall authentication succeeded (the relevant REQUIRED, REQUISITE, SUFFICIENT and OPTIONAL LoginModules succeeded).

    If this LoginModule's own authentication attempt succeeded (checked by retrieving the private state saved by the `login` method), then this method associates a `X500Principal` for the subject distinguished name of the first certificate in the alias's credentials in the subject's principals, the alias's certificate path in the subject's public credentials, and a `X500PrivateCredential` whose certificate is the first certificate in the alias's certificate path and whose private key is the alias's private key in the subject's private credentials. If this LoginModule's own authentication attempted failed, then this method removes any state that was originally saved.

    Specified by:
      `commit` in interface `LoginModule`
    Returns:
      true if this LoginModule's own login and commit attempts succeeded, or false otherwise.
    Throws:
      `LoginException` - if the commit fails

  - ### abort

    public boolean abort() throws LoginException
    This method is called if the LoginContext's overall authentication failed. (the relevant REQUIRED, REQUISITE, SUFFICIENT and OPTIONAL LoginModules did not succeed).

    If this LoginModule's own authentication attempt succeeded (checked by retrieving the private state saved by the `login` and `commit` methods), then this method cleans up any state that was originally saved.

    If the loaded KeyStore's provider extends `java.security.AuthProvider`, then the provider's `logout` method is invoked.

    Specified by:
      `abort` in interface `LoginModule`
    Returns:
      false if this LoginModule's own login and/or commit attempts failed, and true otherwise.
    Throws:
      `LoginException` - if the abort fails.

  - ### logout

    public boolean logout() throws LoginException
    Logout a user.

    This method removes the Principals, public credentials and the private credentials that were added by the `commit` method.

    If the loaded KeyStore's provider extends `java.security.AuthProvider`, then the provider's `logout` method is invoked.

    Specified by:
      `logout` in interface `LoginModule`
    Returns:
      true in all cases since this `LoginModule` should not be ignored.
    Throws:
      `LoginException` - if the logout fails.
