webauth 4.0.0-1 source package in Debian

Changelog

webauth (4.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=low


  * New upstream release.
    - Added support for multifactor, including new WebAuth directives
      WebAuthRequireInitialFactor, WebAuthRequireSessionFactor, and
      WebAuthRequireLOA and new WebKDC directives WebKdcUserInfoURL and
      WebKdcUserInfoPrincipal.  Currently requires a metadata service for
      which there isn't a packaged implementation.
    - mod_webauth now exposes the user's initial and session
      authentication details and level of assurance (if known) in
      environment variables WEBAUTH_FACTORS_INITIAL,
      WEBAUTH_FACTORS_SESSION, and WEBAUTH_LOA.
    - WebLogin now uses Template Toolkit for all templating.  All
      templates will have to be revised to use the new syntax.
    - WebLogin can tell an external middleware service to send the user an
      OTP code via some means, such as SMS.  There are new configuration
      variables for /etc/webkdc/webkdc.conf that control this.
    - WebLogin now supports a site-specific callback to determine the
      initial and session factors and level of assurance for a user who
      has been authenticated via Apache authentication.
    - The keyring functions of the WebAuth Perl module have been rewritten
      to use an object-oriented style and new WebAuth::Keyring and
      WebAuth::KeyringEntry objects.  Perl code that used the keyring API
      will need to be modified.  Methods to remove a key from a keyring,
      get the timestamps and keys associated with keyring entries, and
      choose the best key have been added.
    - The libwebauth API has been changed substantially and will be
      changed further in subsequent releases.
    - The proxy data attribute of webkdc-proxy tokens is now optional.
  * Install /var/cache/weblogin, writable by www-data, as a directory to
    use for Template Toolkit to cache compiled templates.  Mention the new
    $TEMPLATE_COMPILE_PATH directive in the libwebkdc-perl NEWS.Debian.
  * Update the webauth-weblogin README.Debian to mention the Apache
    FastCGI module now included in Debian and the alternative in
    non-free.
