SOAP XML WS-Security 签名验证

SOAP XML WS-Security signature verification

我可以使用 WS-Security 签名证书对 SOAP XML 进行签名。但我无法验证其签名。在验证签名时会导致异常,将不胜感激一些帮助来解决问题

SOAP Enveloped WS-Security signature:

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
 <s:Header>
  <ws:Security xmlns:ws="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/..." s:actor="test">
   <dsig:Signature xmlns:dsig="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/..." id="Sample">
       ...
   </dsig:Signature>
  </ws:Security>
 </s:Header>
 <s:Body>
  ...
 </s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

当我尝试验证 SOAP XML 时,出现以下异常:

org.apache.xml.security.signature.MissingResourceFailureException: The Reference for URI #Body has no XMLSignatureInput

public static boolean isSOAPXmlWSSEDigitalSignatureValid(String signedXmlFilePath, PublicKey publicKey) throws Exception {
    String xmlContent = getFileString(signedXmlFilePath);
    
    Document signedDoc = getDocument(xmlContent.trim(), true);
    signedDoc.createElementNS(DSIG_NS, "ds"); // qualifiedName = "ds";
    signedDoc.createElementNS(WSU_NS, "wsu");
    signedDoc.createElementNS(WSSE_NS, "wsse");
    
    // load signature
    NodeList signatureNodes = signedDoc.getElementsByTagNameNS(javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignature.XMLNS, "Signature");
    if (signatureNodes.getLength() == 0) {
        throw new Exception("No XML Digital Signature Found, document is discarded");
    }
    
    Element sigElement = (Element) signatureNodes.item(0);
    if (sigElement == null) 
        throw new Exception("Signature element is null!");
        
    org.apache.xml.security.Init.init();
    org.apache.xml.security.signature.XMLSignature signature = new XMLSignature(sigElement, "");
    return signature.checkSignatureValue(publicKey);
}

通过使用以下函数,我可以签署 XML

public static SOAPMessage WS_Security_signature(String inputFile, boolean isDataXML) throws Exception {
    SOAPMessage soapMsg;
    Document docBody;
    if (isDataXML) {

对于 SOAP XML 数字签名 i am able to sign and verify.

SOAP XML 信封签名:

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
 <s:Header>
   <dsig:Signature xmlns:dsig="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/..." id="Sample">
       ...
   </dsig:Signature>
 </s:Header>
 <s:Body>
  ...
 </s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

在您的 isSOAPXmlWSSEDigitalSignatureValid 方法中,您需要明确设置 Id 属性作为每个 Referenced 元素的元素 id 属性,默认情况下不假定它们:https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SANTUARIO-312

  public static boolean isSOAPXmlWSSEDigitalSignatureValid(String signedXmlFilePath, PublicKey publicKey) throws Exception {
    String xmlContent = getFileString(signedXmlFilePath);

    Document signedDoc = getDocument(xmlContent, true);
    signedDoc.createElementNS(DSIG_NS, "ds"); // qualifiedName = "ds";
    signedDoc.createElementNS(WSU_NS, "wsu");
    signedDoc.createElementNS(WSSE_NS, "wsse");

    // Register XML ID for SOAP Body element
    NodeList soapBodyElements = signedDoc.getElementsByTagNameNS("http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope", "Body");
    if (soapBodyElements.getLength() == 0) {
      throw new Exception("Element SOAP Body not found");
    }

    Element soapBodyElement = (Element) soapBodyElements.item(0);
    soapBodyElement.setIdAttributeNS("http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd", "Id", true);

    // Register XML ID for Timestamp element
    NodeList timestamps = signedDoc.getElementsByTagNameNS("http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd", "Timestamp");
    if (timestamps.getLength() == 0) {
      throw new Exception("Element Timestamp not found");
    }

    Element timestampElement = (Element) timestamps.item(0);
    timestampElement.setIdAttributeNS("http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd", "Id", true);

    // load signature
    NodeList signatureNodes = signedDoc.getElementsByTagNameNS(javax.xml.crypto.dsig.XMLSignature.XMLNS, "Signature");
    if (signatureNodes.getLength() == 0) {
      throw new Exception("No XML Digital Signature Found, document is discarded");
    }

    Element sigElement = (Element) signatureNodes.item(0);
    if (sigElement == null)
      throw new Exception("Signature element is null!");

    Init.init();
    XMLSignature signature = new XMLSignature(sigElement, "");
    return signature.checkSignatureValue(publicKey);
  }
