Spring Security：在身份验证错误时回退到 formLogin

Question

I tried to implement a SecurityConfig similar to https://stackoverflow.com/a/33608459 and https://docs.spring.io/spring-security/site/docs/current/reference/htmlsingle/#multiple-httpsecurity

I want my API ( /rest/** ) to be secured by HttpBasic, and other requests via FormLogin. This works well... as long as I provide the correct credentials to HttpBasic.

If I provide correct credentials - it response with normal answer.
If I provide no credentials - it responds with a 401 Unauthorized - perfect!
If I provide wrong credentials - it responds with a 302 Found with Location: /login

The last part is what I don't want - I also want a 401 Unauthorized on wrong credentials.

Example Requests:

http http://localhost:8081/rest/
HTTP/1.1 401 WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="My Realm"
http -a correct:password http://localhost:8081/rest/some/api/
HTTP/1.1 200
http -a wrong:password http://localhost:8081/rest/some/api/
HTTP/1.1 302 Location: http://hive.local:8081/login WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="My Realm"

Java configuration:

@Configuration
@Order(1)
public static class RestSecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
  @Autowired
  private AuthorizationProperties properties;

  @Override protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
    // @formatter:off
    http.antMatcher("/rest/**")
      .authorizeRequests()
        .anyRequest().hasRole("API").and()
      .httpBasic()
        .realmName(properties.getRealm()).and()
      .formLogin().disable()
      .csrf().disable();
    // @formatter:on
  }
}

@Configuration
@Order(2)
public static class FrontendSecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
  @Override public void configure(WebSecurity web) throws Exception {
    web.ignoring().antMatchers("/app/**", "/webjars/**", "/static/**", "/js/**");
  }

  @Override protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
    // @formatter:off
    http
      .authorizeRequests()
        .anyRequest().hasAnyRole("USER").and()
      .formLogin();
    // @formatter:on
  }
}

I was able to bring some light into this.

The redirect to form login after a failed basic auth request is cause by the dispatcher servlet trying to redirect to the URL /error after failing to validate the credentials.

To get the appropriate error response you need to add /error to the antMatchers that are ignored in your web security config.
