#Security

Anakin Skywalker challenged the high ground and has been terribly injured on Mustafar.

Description

This is a template for a Flask application that can be deployed in IRIS as an native Web Application.

How do you authenticate with a rest api? The rest api implemention allows us to add in the header Authentication: 'Basic ' + btoa(user + ':' + password) but it is not really secure as a user can inspect and with the right decoding tool see a user password

Is there any mechanism already implemented in IRIS to prevent XSS exploits ?

This case happen when user input html/javascript content into fields and submit the page. If saved content is rendered as is, it's going to be executed by anyone visiting the page.

What I am looking for :

You can use the List query of the %SYS.Audit to output audit logs programmatically.

The sample code is as follows:

We have a CSP pages script, which gets and sets a cookie for email tracking purposes, we had problems with cookies not being passed to this script when the URL was opened from an email client due to being cross-site, so I set Session Cookie Scope & User Cookie Scope to None instead of Strict.

This solved the issue with cookies not being passed, however the script entirely does not work anymore due to the error:

"Invalid CSP response cookie. SameSite cannot be set to None without Secure. : CSP Error"

I attended Cloud Native Security Con in Seattle with full intention of crushing OTEL day, then perusing the subject of security applied to Cloud Native workloads the following days leading up to CTF as a professional excercise. This was happily upended by a new understanding of eBPF, which got my screens, career, workloads, and atitude a much needed upgrade with new approaches to solving workload problems.

So I made it to the eBPF party and have been attending clinic after clinic on the subject ever since, here I would like to "unbox" eBPF as a technical solution, mapped directly to what we do in practice (even if its a bit off), and step through eBPF through my experimentation on supporting InterSystems IRIS Workloads, particularly on Kubernetes, but not necessarily void on standalone workloads.

Auditing is a critical capability ensuring the security of your server, and for quite a while ago we have included the ability to audit SQL statements run on the server.

With v2024.3 out already we're providing finer-grained options for defining these events to audit.

You need to define an SSL configuration called SSLTEST before executing this code

HTTP and HTTPS with REST API

Hello

The HTTP protocol allows you to obtain resources, such as HTML documents. It is the basis of any data exchange on the Web and a client-server protocol, meaning that requests are initiated by the recipient, usually a Web browser.

REST APIs take advantage of this protocol to exchange messages between client and server. This makes REST APIs fast, lightweight, and flexible. REST APIs use the HTTP verbs GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and others to indicate the actions they want to perform.

When we make a call to a RESt API, what actually happens is an HTTP call. The API receives this call and according to the requested verb and path, the API performs the desired action. In the case of the Iris implementation we can see this clearly in the URLMap definition area:

Hi,

I try to generate JWT tokens in Cache (not in IRIS).

In IRIS I managed to generate tokens using ##class(%OAuth2.JWKS).AddOct("HS256",secret,.jwks).

But In Cache there is no such routine.

Could you provide me a place to find an example how to use JWT, please ? I am interested to generate a token in Cache, send it to javascript client, and read a token provided by the client and check it is valid.

Kind regards,

Alin Soare.

Hi,

I'm trying to create a user with access to the HS namespaces management portal.
I'm having trouble identifying the correct resource to assign to the user. I'm testing various resources, but every time I go to the HS management section, a blank page appears, and the Home button disappears.
