Waffle Auth Component

Release: 0.1.0-beta3  |  CHANGELOG.md

The Universal Authentication Bridge (UAB, RFC-021): Waffle's entire authentication layer. Connect a Waffle application to popular authentication services without technical debt — natively, statelessly, fail-closed — in both directions:

• Inbound — interchangeable authenticators for OAuth2/OIDC providers (Google, Microsoft, Keycloak, Auth0, …), JWT bearer tokens (HS256/RS256 + JWKS), HMAC-signed gateway assertions, API keys, and HTTP Basic.
• Outbound — a host-gated PSR-18 AuthenticatedClient decorator that attaches credentials (signed assertion, Bearer token, API key, Basic) to outgoing requests.

Authentication only: who are you? Authorization (may you do this?) remains in waffle-commons/security (RFC-002 ABAC).

📦 Installation

composer require waffle-commons/auth

🧱 Surface

Class	Role
Waffle\Commons\Auth\SecurityContext	Request-scoped identity holder. Implements ResettableInterface — wiped between FrankenPHP worker loops (zero-leak).
Waffle\Commons\Auth\AuthenticationBridge	Orchestrator: runs registered authenticators in order; first supports() wins; rejection throws (fail-closed); none ⇒ anonymous.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Middleware\AuthenticationMiddleware	PSR-15 entry point: bridge + SecurityContext + _auth_identity request attribute.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Middleware\GatewayAssertionMiddleware	Downstream PSR-15 middleware verifying X-Wfl-Assert-User (signature, expiry, IP-binding) and hydrating the context.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Uab\UserAssertion	Immutable assertion VO (PHP 8.5 hooks + asymmetric visibility): usr, eml, rol, ten, iat, exp, iph.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Uab\AuthBridgeSigner	Signs assertions: base64url(payload).hex(HMAC-SHA256) with WAFFLE_AUTH_SECRET. Fail-closed boot (≥ 32-byte secret).
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Uab\AuthBridgeVerifier	Verifies assertions: hash_equals() MAC check, exp/iat window (≤ 5 s), keyed IP-hash binding.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Authenticator\JwtAuthenticator	Authorization: Bearer — HS256/RS256, strict alg allow-list, alg:none rejected, iss/aud/exp/nbf enforced.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Authenticator\ApiKeyAuthenticator	X-Api-Key — constant-time key matching.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Authenticator\BasicAuthenticator	Authorization: Basic — password_verify() / hash_equals().
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Authenticator\AssertionAuthenticator	Inbound scheme wrapper around AuthBridgeVerifier.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Oauth\OauthClient	Authorization-code + PKCE (S256) and client-credentials grants over any PSR-18 client.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Oauth\OidcDiscovery	/.well-known/openid-configuration resolution, PSR-16 cached.
Waffle\Commons\Auth\Client\AuthenticatedClient	PSR-18 decorator applying host-gated CredentialsProviderInterfaces to outgoing requests.

🔐 Security mandates (RFC-021 §5)

• Every MAC/secret comparison uses hash_equals() — constant time, zero exceptions.
• Fail-closed boot: missing/empty/short (< 32 bytes) WAFFLE_AUTH_SECRET ⇒ MissingAuthSecretException aborts the kernel.
• Anti-replay: assertions carry iat/exp with a strict ≤ 5 s window and a keyed client-IP hash (iph); OAuth state/nonce ride a signed, short-TTL cookie.
• Stateless: no $_SESSION, no superglobals, no static state; the SecurityContext resets every worker loop; igor-php green.

✅ Quality gates

composer mago   # fmt + lint + analyze + guard — zero baselines
composer tests  # PHPUnit 12, ≥ 95% coverage
composer igor   # zero state-mutation errors (FrankenPHP)
