| # Gitea LDAP Authentication Module
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## About
 | |
| 
 | |
| This authentication module attempts to authorize and authenticate a user
 | |
| against an LDAP server. It provides two methods of authentication: LDAP via
 | |
| BindDN, and LDAP simple authentication.
 | |
| 
 | |
| LDAP via BindDN functions like most LDAP authentication systems. First, it
 | |
| queries the LDAP server using a Bind DN and searches for the user that is
 | |
| attempting to sign in. If the user is found, the module attempts to bind to the
 | |
| server using the user's supplied credentials. If this succeeds, the user has
 | |
| been authenticated, and his account information is retrieved and passed to the
 | |
| Gogs login infrastructure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| LDAP simple authentication does not utilize a Bind DN. Instead, it binds
 | |
| directly with the LDAP server using the user's supplied credentials. If the bind
 | |
| succeeds and no filter rules out the user, the user is authenticated.
 | |
| 
 | |
| LDAP via BindDN is recommended for most users. By using a Bind DN, the server
 | |
| can perform authorization by restricting which entries the Bind DN account can
 | |
| read. Further, using a Bind DN with reduced permissions can reduce security risk
 | |
| in the face of application bugs.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| To use this module, add an LDAP authentication source via the Authentications
 | |
| section in the admin panel. Both the LDAP via BindDN and the simple auth LDAP
 | |
| share the following fields:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Authorization Name **(required)**
 | |
|   * A name to assign to the new method of authorization.
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Host **(required)**
 | |
|   * The address where the LDAP server can be reached.
 | |
|   * Example: mydomain.com
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Port **(required)**
 | |
|   * The port to use when connecting to the server.
 | |
|   * Example: 636
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Enable TLS Encryption (optional)
 | |
|   * Whether to use TLS when connecting to the LDAP server.
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Admin Filter (optional)
 | |
|   * An LDAP filter specifying if a user should be given administrator
 | |
|       privileges. If a user accounts passes the filter, the user will be
 | |
|       privileged as an administrator.
 | |
|   * Example: (objectClass=adminAccount)
 | |
| 
 | |
| * First name attribute (optional)
 | |
|   * The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user's first name.
 | |
|       This will be used to populate their account information.
 | |
|   * Example: givenName
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Surname attribute (optional)
 | |
|   * The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user's surname This
 | |
|       will be used to populate their account information.
 | |
|   * Example: sn
 | |
| 
 | |
| * E-mail attribute **(required)**
 | |
|   * The attribute of the user's LDAP record containing the user's email
 | |
|       address. This will be used to populate their account information.
 | |
|   * Example: mail
 | |
| 
 | |
| **LDAP via BindDN** adds the following fields:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Bind DN (optional)
 | |
|   * The DN to bind to the LDAP server with when searching for the user. This
 | |
|       may be left blank to perform an anonymous search.
 | |
|   * Example: cn=Search,dc=mydomain,dc=com
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Bind Password (optional)
 | |
|   * The password for the Bind DN specified above, if any. _Note: The password
 | |
|       is stored in plaintext at the server. As such, ensure that your Bind DN
 | |
|       has as few privileges as possible._
 | |
| 
 | |
| * User Search Base **(required)**
 | |
|   * The LDAP base at which user accounts will be searched for.
 | |
|   * Example: ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
 | |
| 
 | |
| * User Filter **(required)**
 | |
|   * An LDAP filter declaring how to find the user record that is attempting to
 | |
|       authenticate. The '%s' matching parameter will be substituted with the
 | |
|       user's username.
 | |
|   * Example: (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%s))
 | |
| 
 | |
| **LDAP using simple auth** adds the following fields:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * User DN **(required)**
 | |
|   * A template to use as the user's DN. The `%s` matching parameter will be
 | |
|       substituted with the user's username.
 | |
|   * Example: cn=%s,ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
 | |
|   * Example: uid=%s,ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
 | |
| 
 | |
| * User Search Base (optional)
 | |
|   * The LDAP base at which user accounts will be searched for.
 | |
|   * Example: ou=Users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
 | |
| 
 | |
| * User Filter **(required)**
 | |
|   * An LDAP filter declaring when a user should be allowed to log in. The `%s`
 | |
|       matching parameter will be substituted with the user's username.
 | |
|   * Example: (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(cn=%s))
 | |
|   * Example: (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%s))
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Verify group membership in LDAP** uses the following fields:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Group Search Base (optional)
 | |
|   * The LDAP DN used for groups.
 | |
|   * Example: ou=group,dc=mydomain,dc=com
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Group Name Filter (optional)
 | |
|   * An LDAP filter declaring how to find valid groups in the above DN.
 | |
|   * Example: (|(cn=gitea_users)(cn=admins))
 | |
| 
 | |
| * User Attribute in Group (optional)
 | |
|   * Which user LDAP attribute is listed in the group.
 | |
|   * Example: uid
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Group Attribute for User (optional)
 | |
|   * Which group LDAP attribute contains an array above user attribute names.
 | |
|   * Example: memberUid
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Team group map (optional)
 | |
|   * Automatically add users to Organization teams, depending on LDAP group memberships.
 | |
|   * Note: this function only adds users to teams, it never removes users.
 | |
|   * Example: {"cn=MyGroup,cn=groups,dc=example,dc=org": {"MyGiteaOrganization": ["MyGiteaTeam1", "MyGiteaTeam2", ...], ...}, ...}
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Team group map removal (optional)
 | |
|   * If set to true, users will be removed from teams if they are not members of the corresponding group.
