Duo Authenticator Plugin for Jupyter

Simple Duo Authenticator Plugin for JupyterHub

Requirements and Limitations

This plugin adds Duo secondary authentication. The primary authentication is done using another Authenticator. By default, this is the standard PAM Authenticator. Any other custom Authenticator that functions when used as the sole authenticator via c.JupyterHub.authenticator_class should work, but only the PAMAuthenticator has been tested.

It is recommended to setup and test whichever primary authenticator will be used first to ensure it's functioning before installing this plugin.

Installation

Install from Github using pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/unlhcc/jupyter-duoauthenticator.git

Create a Duo application

Add a new Application of type Web SDK in the Duo Control Panel. Make a note of the Integration Key, Secret Key, and API hostname.

Generate the akey

The akey is a generated string used to sign requests and is kept secret from Duo. To generate the akey using Python, run

import os, hashlib
print hashlib.sha1(os.urandom(32)).hexdigest()

More details can be found in the Duo documentation.

Usage

Enable the authenticator by setting the following in your jupyter_config.py:

import duoauthenticator
c.JupyterHub.authenticator_class = 'duoauthenticator.DuoAuthenticator'

Required configuration

The following configuation options must be set:

`c.DuoAuthenticator.ikey`

The Integration key from the Duo Application Details:

c.DuoAuthenticator.ikey = '<my ikey>'

`c.DuoAuthenticator.skey`

The Secret key from the Duo Application Details:

c.DuoAuthenticator.skey = '<my skey>'

`c.DuoAuthenticator.akey`

The generated akey:

c.DuoAuthenticator.akey = '<my akey>'

`c.DuoAuthenticator.apihost`

The API hostname from the Duo Application Details:

c.DuoAuthenticator.apihost = 'api-XXXXX.duosecurity.com'

Optional configuration

`c.DuoAuthenticator.primary_auth_class`

The class to use for the primary authentication. Default is the built-in PAMAuthenticator, i.e.

c.DuoAuthenticator.primary_auth_class = 'jupyterhub.auth.PAMAuthenticator'

`c.DuoAuthenticator.duo_custom_html`

Custom html as a Unicode string to use for the Duo auth page. Default is an empty string, which will use the included duo.html template:

c.DuoAuthenticator.duo_custom_html=''

Must contain at minimum an iframe with id='duo_iframe', as well as data-host and data-sig-request template attributes to be populated. See the Duo documentation for more details on the iframe configuration.
