A portable Java library for WebAuthn server side verification
This library hasn't reached version 1. Design may change.
All attestation statement formats are supported.
- Packed attestation
- FIDO U2F attestation
- Android Key attestation
- Android SafetyNet attestation
- TPM attestation
- None attestation
All mandatory test cases and optional Android Key attestation test cases of FIDO2 Test Tools provided by FIDO Alliance are passed.
You can find out more details from the reference.
If you are using Maven, just add the webauthn4j as a dependency:
<properties>
...
<!-- Use the latest version whenever possible. -->
<webauthn4j.version>0.8.1.RELEASE</webauthn4j.version>
...
</properties>
<dependencies>
...
<dependency>
<groupId>com.webauthn4j</groupId>
<artifactId>webauthn4j-core</artifactId>
<version>${webauthn4j.version}</version>
</dependency>
...
</dependencies>
WebAuthn4J uses a Gradle based build system.
In the instructions below, gradlew
is invoked from the root of the source tree and serves as a cross-platform,
self-contained bootstrap mechanism for the build.
- Java8 or later
git clone https://github.com/webauthn4j/webauthn4j
./gradlew build
