  • 1.  Open Format Cookie optional attributes

    Posted Apr 30, 2015 06:02 PM

    I am trying to implement a simple response with an open format cookie from this guide and ran into an issue where any optional attributes that I enter all return as null.  The siteminder attributes seem to return with no issues, however, if I add an attribute 'email' or any other, the decoded cookie comes up email=null in the response. Has anyone ran into this or can reproduce the issue?

     

    I am on the latest 12.52 SP1.  Running in full-fips mode with the unlimited strength java library.  I tried both 128 and 256 bit AES.

    Hi @adjennin2,

     

    Have you got this resolved ?

     

    I tried this today but couldn't reproduce the issue.

    Here is how I configured it :

     

    *****************************************************************

    Java Active Expression for Open Format Cookie :

     

    MyOFCCookie=<@ lib="smjavaapi" func="JavaActiveExpression" param="com.ca.sm.expression.activeexpression.smopenformatcookie ;;2;600;3758C6D6205A02A9485C8B1E2C9311E640349BD4E216104A;3DES_EDE/CBC/PKCS5Padding;SM_USERLOGINNAME;mail" @>

     

    Decrypted value of OFC :

    Using Security Provider Class: com.sun.crypto.provider.SunJCE

    Decrypted Data String: Version=1.0;SM_USERLOGINNAME=wonsa03;mail=wonsa03@ca.com;

    *****************************************************************

     

    Could you check if you have extra semi colon (;) added after your optional attributes ? like "mail;"

    If it is, then I try suggest by removing it and see if that works.

     

    Cheers,
