Beschreibung
This plugin allows sign in to WordPress using a JSON Web Token (JWT) contained in a HTTP Header that is added by a reverse proxy
that sits in front of your WordPress deployment.
Authentication and optionally role assignment is handled by claims contained in the JWT.
Verification of the JWT is handled by either:
- a shared secret key
- retrieving a JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) from a configured URL
During the login process if the user does not exist an account will be created with a matching role from the JWT.
If the JWT did not contain a role claim then user is created with the role set in the plugin settings (by default this is the subscriber role).
Screenshots
This example shows a configuration with a WordPress install behind Cloudflare Access for SSO via JWT
FAQ
-
What header is the JWT retrieved from?
-
By default the plugin looks for the JWT in the
Authorizationheader as follows:Authorization: Bearer <JWT Here>However the token may be retrieved from a configurable HTTP header, for example integration with Cloudflare Access would use
theCf-Access-Jwt-Assertionheader. -
What should the JWT contain?
-
The JWT must contain at least an
emailclaim and may also contain aroleclaim:{ "email": "admin@example.com", "role": "admin" } -
What signature algorimths are supported to verify the JWT?
-
Currently only the HS256 and RS256 alorithms are supported.
