Glewlwyd SSO server

NOTICE: This project is no longer being maintained. ⚠️

This project is now closed for me, I have no time nor motivation to maintain it, so I prefer closing this repository.

Project

Glewlwyd is mostly developped by myself on my free time, with gracious help from users.

Nevertheless, it hasn't been fully audited or tested by external developpers.

Glewlwyd can take a central place in a system where applications and environments need authentication and authorization, be aware of the risks: bugs, non discovered vulnerabilities, etc.

I recommend not to use Glewlwyd in production, more likely to test OAuth2/OpenID behavior, MFA connections, or IdP in general. You can also explore its functionalities and help yourself with its source code for other implementations.

Experimental Single-Sign-On (SSO) server with multiple factor authentication for OAuth2 and OpenID Connect authentication

Glewlwyd 2.7.6 is available. Feel free to install it, test it, use it (with precautions!), and send feedback if you feel like it!

logged in

Process supported:

User authentication via multiple factors:

Users and clients storage backends:

User registration

New users can register a new account with the possibility to confirm their e-mail address or not. During the registration process, the new user may be expected to register their passwords, as well as other authentication factors:

Existing users can update their e-mail by sending a confirmation link to the new e-mail.

Lost credentials

Existing users can reset their credentials if their password or authentication schemes are lost or unavailable. Credentials can be reset by different factors:

See the register/update e-mail/reset credentials documentation for more information on the registration, update e-mail or reset credentials features.

Based on a plugin architecture to make it easier to add or update storage backends, authentication schemes or process.

Passwordless authentication

Adding new authentication schemes or backend storage for users and clients is possible via the plugin architecture.

Architecture and performance

The backend API server is fully written in C and uses a small amount of resources.

Its plugin architecture makes it easy to add new modules or plugins, or modify existing ones with less risks to have unmaintainable code.

Installation

The full installation documentation is available in the Install documentation.
