CAS client 2.0.12beta (May 2004): enhancements, bug fixes

• mod_cas:

  • added logout option. You may now pass mod_cas a GET parameter that logs the user out of the mod_cas session management. (Available in Apache 2.x version only)

  • general code cleanup to remove possibilities of several simple seg faults

  • modified ssl_client.c to accept CR, LF, or CRLF at end of validation response lines

  • Added support for non-standard ports (i.e. ports other than 80 or 443)

• pam_cas:

  • added support for multiple proxy callbacks

• Java:

  • added "renew" support to ServiceTicketValidator. Setting "renew" ensures validation proceeded from an initial sign-on (a user presentation of primary credentials to CAS server).

  • added gateway and renew support to the filter

  • added ability to acquire proxy tickets through the filter

  • added option to wrap filter servlet request to override getRemoteUser() to return the logged-in CAS user

  • added support for multiple proxy callbacks

  • added a new SimpleCASAuthorizationFilter that allows you to specify a user access list in your application's deployment descriptor, very much like mod_cas's "Require user ..." directive

  • fixed AuthTag to grab the server name from an initialization parameter rather than from an attribute
