Mirror repository of Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism (SCRAM) - Java Implementation

SCRAM Java Implementation

Overview

SCRAM (Salted Challenge Response Authentication Mechanism) is part of the family of Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL, RFC 4422) authentication mechanisms.

It is described as part of RFC 5802 and RFC7677.

This project will serve for the basis of PostgreSQL's JDBC driver SCRAM support (supported since PostgreSQL 10).

The code is licensed under the BSD "Simplified 2 Clause" license (see LICENSE).

Goals

This project aims to provide a complete clean-room implementation of SCRAM. It is written in Java and provided in a modular, re-usable way, independent of other software or programs.

Current functionality includes:

• Common infrastructure for building both client and server SCRAM implementations.
• A Client API for using SCRAM as a client.
• Support for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
• Basic support for channel binding.
• No runtime external dependencies.
• Well tested (+75 tests).

Current limitations:

• Server API and integration tests will be added soon.

How to use the client API

Please read Client's README.md.

Javadoc:

Common API

'common' is the module that contains code common to both client and server SCRAM projects. If you with to develop either a client or server API, you may very well build on top of this API. Import maven dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.ongres.scram</groupId>
    <artifactId>common</artifactId>
</dependency>

and check the Javadoc:
