Cloud Web Security (formerly Scansafe) ldap resultCode: 49 Invalid Credentials. Default usergroup applied after user's sAMAccount authentication fails after BINDING

Joe Lourenco
Level 1
Level 1

I have a serious problem  with LDAP, for the purpose of Scansafe, on a 3945 ISR with IOS 15 (C3900-UNIVERSALK9-M). LDAP  binding to the LDAP Server (Active Directory on Win Srv 2008 R2) when authenticating any domain user, except  for the default Scansafe Bind Root-DN user, is failing.

 

The testing of any user's sAMAccount name, is failing, and it defaults to the default Scansafe usergroup.

 

# test aaa group <ldap group name> <userid> <pwd> new-code

User Rejected

 

# sh ldap server all   (the output is correct when checking to see if any LDAP server exists)

 

My config is exactly as Scansafe's configuration guide:

 

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/web_security/ISR_SS/ISR_ScanSafe_SolutionGuide.pdf

 

I am using NTLM ACTIVE AUTHENTICATION and I have the LDAP  attribute map for mapping the sAMAccount name to the user's username.

 

In that PDF, on the bottom of page 12, there is this paragraph that describes exactly what is happening to my Scansafe.

 

"Configuring a Default User Group

You can configure a default user group to assign to each client when the ISR cannot determine the

credentials for a user. Define a default user group using the following CLI command:

[no] user-group default <name>

 

The ISR uses the default user group name here to identify all clients connected to a specific interface on  the ISR when it cannot determine the user’s credentials. You might want to define a default user group  so that all traffic redirected to the ScanSafe proxy servers are assigned a user group so particular  ScanSafe policies can be applied appropriately. For example, you might want to create a default user       group for guest users on the wireless network.Only one user group can be defined per interface."

 

Now,  what does this problem affect? I cannot enforce the  application of  filters from the Scansafe site to specific user groups.  Users can use  the internet under the default usergroup. Everyone  defaults to the  default filter. I have a filter established for say  Purchasing, allowing  them extra leeway on what they can access, but the  members of that group  cannot authenticate, and thus their filter is not  applied.

 

Application of filters is essential to Scansafe, without, it defeats the purpose

 

I appreciate all the help I can get on this.

 

Here is what my logs show regarding LDAP BINDING OPERATION, from # debug ldap all:

 

 

-- Testing with jltestuser (this is just any random user, as all users are failing anyway)

Hi Joe,

I would like to point out few things regarding the configuration:

- Please make sure you are running code: 15.3(3)M as that is the current stable release for ISR Connector.

- Could you please provide the relevant LDAP config as well for verification?

Also I had seen this issue once when in the LDAP configuration. In that case, the base-dn was configured as the domain and it was not working. We changed the configuration and specified the OU in which the users resided in the base-dn and it started to work fine.

Kush

Hi Kush,

Thank you for your reply.

Basically, Scansafe, in "theory", is working. But in  "practicality", it is not. A twist here, is that when it was first  implemented in October of 2012, it worked just fine.

Here is the information you requested.

- This ISR is running Version 15.2(4)M1

.

-  Scansafe LDAP code (with confidential content omitted in (bold)). I  have also underlined some code and show outputs to emphasize the  problem.

base-dn CN=Users,DC=(x),DC=(x),DC=(x)

search-filter user-object-type top

authentication bind-first

!

I am adding the following Scansafe parameter map and the output of the following show command:

# sh content-scan session active

I  believe it may provide some clues, especially the output of the show  command as it shows that Scansafe defaults to the username/user-group created in the parameter-map type content-scan global.

(Scansafe parameter-map, with tower and license omitted)

parameter-map type content-scan global

        URI: box.zap.com.br

Note: The output of this show command should be showing  usernames and usergroups of our AD server, not the default. Therefore,  filters can not be applied per user/group, and default to the default  filter.

I really appreciate help in this issue. I need to get Scansafe working in order to justify its purpose, its investment.

Hi Kush,

Wanted to point out a couple of more things.

Based on what you said "We changed the configuration and specified the OU in which the users resided in the base-dn and it started to work fine", as you can see in the config,the base-dn has CN=Users, where our users do reside.

In #sh ldap attributes, I saw an alternative option as cn == username to try but that did not work.

In our AD, running > dsquery, yields:

PS C:\> dsquery user -samid

"CN=userid,CN=Users,DC=x,DC=x,DC=com"

In our Linux systems, kinit and wbinfo for our users, returns just fine.

I have read about a possible caveats regarding ldap authentication in which if both the ISR and AD are running NTLMv2, and therefore a workaround is to use NTLM ACTIVE, which I am.

I have tried a monitor capture with ACLs to capture traffic just from the ISR to the AD to see what what the LDAP protocol is sending to authenticate as the DN, but I get 0 packets. In the capture I only get traffic from the AD. Anyway, the debug ldap above shows it anyway.

After picking through debug ldap, I can assume that depending on the  user's DN, wether its DN is two words, like "John Smith", or one word like "test", it will dictate wether it will fail or succeed bind. After going through a number of userids, the one's with one word DN successfuly binds and returns groups. Userids who have two words, like "john smith", even though their sAMAcountname is jsmith, fails.

I may be wrong, but its the only difference that I could find between users that do bind and those that do not.

It seems that the root-dn to bind to Active Directory is not being used accordingly to the ldap config and its attribute map for Scansafe.

Please read this thread: thread/2076997.

The reply by  Peter Koltl  to 2044418Puts post, at the bottom, states a probable cause to what may be happening.

Hi,

As I can see above you are using an older code of the ISR ScanSafe connector 15.0 however our engineering team recommends using the code 15.15.3(3)M as it is the current stable release for ISR/ScanSafe Connector. Could you please upgrade to this code and check the behavior. If it's still the same, I would recommend you contact TAC for further analysis.

Regards,

Kush

Hello Kushagra,

Will do.

Please take a look into this TAC document 113689, titled:

LDAP on IOS Devices Using Dynamic Attribute Maps Configuration Example

Regards,

Joe

Hi Kushagra,

I upgraded the image, still the same behavior.

Will contact TAC again.

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe,

I'm delighted that you've dug up such an old story of mine. (-: As I went through the logs I noticed the difference between your and my config. You use authentication bind-first command which results in:

051653: Aug 23 23:10:34.983 BRST: LDAP: First Task: Send bind req

051654: Aug 23 23:10:34.983 BRST: LDAP: Authentication policy: bind-first

while my log is:

*Oct 28 09:40:25.903: LDAP: First Task: Send search req

So you should try to remove that setting as described in

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/tech/tk367/technologies_configuration_example09186a0080becd1a.shtml

Will you please edit your post to correct my name spelling? (To help web search engines)

Hi Peter,

My apologies for the mispelling, it has been corrected.

I came across that very same document and jumped with joy "I found a solution!"

After upgrading the IOS and removing authentication bind-first, it still failed.

What could possibly be happening? I have gone through your document in your site, Cisco documents, tons of captures, and still cannot get it to work. The strange thing is, it used to work.

I appreciate any help!

Thanks.

Then please copy here the new debugs.

You may also want to contact Scansafe center to check the account permissions and their logs.

Have you tried to connect with a graphical LDAP browser?

Thank You!

Hello Peter,

I had updated the IOS to the latest version, and removed the bind authenticate root-dn and authenticate bind-first, now my test userid is not being rejected and yielding all the groups my test userid belongs to.

As you can see from the debug log above, it was first yielding a bind error.

However, according to SS Solution Guide, it goes against what should be configured. Even though there is no rejection, still it is incorrect, right?

The ldap server for SS summary:

#sh ldap server fqdn summary

Server Information for fqdn

================================

Server name             :fqdn

Server Address          :x.x.x.x

Server listening Port   :3268

Server mode             :Non-Secure

Cipher Suite            :0x00

Authentication Seq      :Search first. Then Bind/Compare password next

Authentication Procedure:Bind with user password

Base-Dn                 :CN=Users,DC=x,DC=x,DC=com

Object Class            :top

Attribute map           :ldap-username-map

Request timeout         :30

No. of active connections   : 0

---------------------------------

The debug log is too big to add here, but it is not doing the root binding.

Thanks!

Joe

Ok, and what does Scansafe center say? This seems to be a bind/auth error due to bad credentials.

Can you connect with a graphical LDAP browser?

I have used ldapadmin and phpldapadmin successfully. I connected with the scansafe specific user created just for scansafe purposes and successfully ran queries. 

Now, I noticed an odd behavior in the ISR. Today, the "test aaa group ...userid..." is failing, but I made an observation and conclusion.

I added back the bind authenticate root-dn and authenticate bind-first code back into the ldap server. Bringing the SS code back to the default config. I concluded that userids that have a CN in AD that consists of First Name Last Name (such as "John Doe") , fail. Those that consist of only 1 word (such as "test"), succeed.

So, then I removed them again, like I did on the Oct. 25th, and the tests return successfully. And that is even for those with 2 names in their CN. But, after running several successful tests, it begans to reject!

And note, the attribute map is there.

ldap attribute-map ldap-username-map

map type sAMAccountName username

I had a case open with TAC LDAP but my work travel schedule this year was very demanding and kept elongating the open status of the case. Plus, simulating the problem was rather perplexing because the code itself is nearly identical to the SS recommended config. The engineer was excellent and helpful, but me being overseas took a toll on time.

I had this issue but managed to resolve it.

The issue was with

bind authenticate root-dn CN=,CN=Users,DC=mydomain,DC=com password

The is the Display Name i.e. (FirstName and Last Name) of the user in AD, and this has to have NO SPACES.  For example I created a user with a Display Name called ScansafeAdmin.

Oncre the binding takes place, you can use the following test:for any other user in your LDAP/AD.

test aaa group new-code

where is the User Login Name in AD not the Display Name i.e. in my case the Login Name was scansafe

I also removed the following command authentication bind-first
