Is it possible to only check the password with ember-simple-auth? I want the user to re-enter their password if they want to delete their account. Can this password check be done without touching the store using ember-simple-auth?
If I use code similar to this:
let loginPromise =
session.authenticate('authenticator:jwt', { identification, password })
return loginPromise.then(() => true).catch(() => false) // allow/deny to delete the account
then the session is invalidated if the password is wrong, so the user is signed out. I want, however, to only disable the "Delete Account" button if the password is wrong (without any other side effects like signing in).

I have my Ldap working the only issue i'm facing was when I try to login with email that is when I land in the else part in the below code. If my username is different from email then it throws error. i.e if my email is 'skumar#gmail.com' and my username is 'saurakumar' then it will through invalid username password error.
As internally I'm using username to make email i.e if the user login with name 'karan' then i'm expecting the email to be karan #gmail.com which is not true in many scenario and the Authentication fails. I'm looking for some solution wherein I can login either via email or via username I'll be able to authenticate user. Below is the snippet of my code. Please suggest?
ldapEnv.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, initialContextFactory);
ldapEnv.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, url);
ldapEnv.remove(Context.SECURITY_PROTOCOL);
if (email == null) {
lContext = new InitialLdapContext(ldapEnv, null);
entryResult = searchUserEntry(lContext, user, searchCtrls);
final String usrDN = ((Context) entryResult.getObject()).getNameInNamespace();
lContext.addToEnvironment(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "simple");
lContext.addToEnvironment(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, usrDN);
lContext.addToEnvironment(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, pass);
lContext.reconnect(null);
} else {
ldapEnv.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, email);
ldapEnv.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, credentials);
lContext = new InitialLdapContext(ldapEnv, null);
return lContext;
searchUserEntry(lContext, user, searchCtrls);
}
Normally this is a 3-step process:
Bind to LDAP as an administrative user. Note that this should not be the master user defined in the configuration file: that's for OpenLDAP's use itself. Instead it should be a user mentioned in the DIT that has the appropriate search access for the next step.
Search for the user via some unique attribute, e.g. in your case email.
Using the found DN of the user and the password he specified, attempt to bind as that user (with the reconnect() method, after changing the environment of the context appropriately).
If all that succeeds, you have a login success. If (2) or (3) fail, you have a failure, and note that you should not tell the user which it was: otherwise you are leaking information to attackers. You should not mention whether it was the username (email) or the password that was wrong.
I am not looking for a solution that involves the user, a token generated, and emailing in order to reset a user's password.
The scenario is a user contacts the admins and asks them to reset their password (internal organization web app). They are then told what that new temporary password is so they can log in and change it.
I see no function that lets me do the above. My attempt:
string passwordToken = await UM.GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync(user.Id);
IdentityResult res = await UM.ResetPasswordAsync(user.Id, passwordToken, "newPassword##!$%");
UM is UserManager.
I get error "No IUserTokenProvider is registered". I think GeneratePasswordResetToken is the one causing the error. If so, why?
How do I properly do what I need?
Use the combination of RemovePasswordAsync and AddPasswordAsync
UserManager.RemovePasswordAsync(user.Id);
UserManager.AddPasswordAsync(user.Id, tempPassword);
In Laravel, after registration, the user receives an email with a link with a confirmation code.
When the user clicks the link in the email, I want to login the user.
Problem: The attempt-method needs a password and I only have the hashed password I stored while registering. You can't login with an hashed password with the code below.
$credentials = [
'username' => Input::get('username'),
'password' => Input::get('password'),
'confirmed' => 1
];
Auth::attempt($credentials);
What is the best way to confirm and immediately login?
You can login directly without a password using either
Auth::loginUsingId(1);
or
Auth::login($user);
So use either of these after the confirmation code is confirmed.
What is the best way to reset password only with token?
Now it mades with token and email, I want to get an email by checking tocket in reminders table.
Thanks!
Update
Resolved this by:
$email = DB::table(Config::get('auth.reminder.table'))->where('token', $token)->pluck('email');
Here's how I do password resets.
User clicks Forgot Password link and is taken to a form with one field for email.
They enter their registered email address and I check the email exists in the DB. If it does, I store a random reset code for that user using Str::random(60). I then save the user and email them a link with a reset code (eg. http://domain.com/reset/CODE).
User clicks the link and is taken to the URL above which checks the CODE. If the CODE exists in the DB, the password for the matching user is reset to something random using Str::random(10) and this new password is mailed to the user.
Not sure if this is right/wrong, but it works for me.
I'm new to meteor and am stuck on registering a login handler that lets me use the password to authenticate the user.
I'm working off the code from http://meteorhacks.com
The server side code is as follows:
Accounts.registerLoginHandler(function(loginRequest) {
var userId = null;
var user = Meteor.users.findOne({'emails.address': loginRequest.email, password: loginRequest.password, 'proile.type': loginRequest.type});
if(user) {
userId = user._id;
}
return { id: userId}
This works fine if I take out the password field and just use the email and type ones. How do I get this working with the password as well?
Bottom line, you can't directly search via the plaintext password. You need to verify the password via SRP which is a little tricky as there isn't any documentation on it. Luckily Meteor is open source! A good start is at the accounts-password : https://github.com/meteor/meteor/blob/master/packages/accounts-password/password_server.js
There already is a package that can do password logins for you (the one the above file is from). You can add it to your project via meteor add accounts-password.
Then you could login with Meteor.loginWithPassword
