Issue/Introduction

 

When running Federation Services, once the Web Agent Option Pack receives the response from the Authz Server, it returns an error:

[05/04/2022][14:31:30][9197][2047252224][c52aff38-8cf154b7-21f93726-fb745c73-89ef5aaa-49][MessageDispatcher.java][dispatchMessage][Sending the following message to the remote entity:

  at com.rsa.sslj.x.aG.b(Unknown Source)

    Caused by: java.security.cert.CertificateException: the certificate chain is not trusted, Could not validate path.

 

Environment

 

    Web Agent Option Pack 12.52SP09 on ServletExec 6 on RedHat 6; 
    Policy Server 12.8SP5 on RedHat 7;

 

Cause

 

The Federation Services do 2 calls to 2 different remote servers. For the first one to get the access_token, the SSL handshake works fine. For the other to get the userinfo, the certificate isn't recognized.

Thus adding the Intermediate and CA Root certificate to the Policy Store will solve this issue.

The browser receives error 500:

When the Federation Service tries to reach another server to get the userinfo, the certificate cannot be verified:

When looking for remote server serving /oidc/userinfo resource, the Federation Service tries to reach

https://_host4.example._com/oidc/userinfo

for which certificate has subject

Subject: O = _host, CN = _host4.example._com

and issuer:

Issuer: O = _intermediate

The intermediate certificate _intermediate has a CA Root certificate:

Issuer: O = _root

None can be found in the Policy Store.

Resolution

 

Add Intermediate and CA Root certificates of

https://_host4.example._com/oidc/userinfo

to the Policy Store as Certificates authorities to solve this issue.
