为什么 WS-Federation 需要 Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.Abstractions NuGet 包?

Why does WS-Federation require Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.Abstractions NuGet package?

我一直在学习如何让 WS-Federation 在没有身份的情况下工作,对于初始设置,我使用了这个指南:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/authentication/ws-federation?view=aspnetcore-3.0

很长一段时间以来,我一直 运行 出错,但偶然地,我找到了一个解决方案,其中包括 Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.Abstractions NuGet 包。

这在指南中的任何地方都没有提到,只有一个 post 我发现曾经提到它与 WS-Federation 相关:https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/issues/18639

这个 NuGet 包有什么作用,为什么需要它来使 WS-Federation 工作?这甚至是正确的设置方法吗?

你可以找到源代码on github here

实际上,它提供了一个接口IDataProtector and the IDataProtectionProvider

namespace Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection
{
    /// <summary>
    /// An interface that can provide data protection services.
    /// </summary>
    public interface IDataProtector : IDataProtectionProvider
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Cryptographically protects a piece of plaintext data.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="plaintext">The plaintext data to protect.</param>
        /// <returns>The protected form of the plaintext data.</returns>
        byte[] Protect(byte[] plaintext);

        /// <summary>
        /// Cryptographically unprotects a piece of protected data.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="protectedData">The protected data to unprotect.</param>
        /// <returns>The plaintext form of the protected data.</returns>
        /// <exception cref="System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException">
        /// Thrown if the protected data is invalid or malformed.
        /// </exception>
        byte[] Unprotect(byte[] protectedData);
    }
}
namespace Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection
{
    /// <summary>
    /// An interface that can be used to create <see cref="IDataProtector"/> instances.
    /// </summary>
    public interface IDataProtectionProvider
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Creates an <see cref="IDataProtector"/> given a purpose.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="purpose">
        /// The purpose to be assigned to the newly-created <see cref="IDataProtector"/>.
        /// </param>
        /// <returns>An IDataProtector tied to the provided purpose.</returns>
        /// <remarks>
        /// The <paramref name="purpose"/> parameter must be unique for the intended use case; two
        /// different <see cref="IDataProtector"/> instances created with two different <paramref name="purpose"/>
        /// values will not be able to decipher each other's payloads. The <paramref name="purpose"/> parameter
        /// value is not intended to be kept secret.
        /// </remarks>
        IDataProtector CreateProtector(string purpose);
    }
}

它们都是 WS-Federation 正在实施(一个或另一个或两者)或它正在使用(从某种 DI 容器或构造函数中期望它)的某些实现的抽象。无论如何,没有它你将无法工作。

设置的方法是同时安装 nuget 包 from here
