How to get the certificate into the X509 filter (Spring Security)?
spring, spring-security, x509certificate
Solution
No you can't get it that way. You need to grab it from the HttpServletRequest:
X509Certificate[] certs = (X509Certificate[])HttpServletRequest.getAttribute("javax.servlet.request.X509Certificate");
Problem
I need to extract more information than just the CN of the certificate. Currently, I only get the standard UserDetails loadUserByUsername(String arg) where arg is the CN of the certificate. I need to get the X509Certificate object. Is it possible? on spring security xml file : ``` <x509 subject-principal-regex="CN=(.*?)," user-service-ref="myUserDetailsService" /> ```
