带有 Istio 网关和 AWS HTTPS 应用程序负载均衡器的 AWS K3S Kubernetes 集群上的 Keycloak 服务器管理控制台阻止了混合内容响应

Question

I was able to successfully start keycloak server on AWS K3S Kubernetes Cluster with Istio Gateway and AWS HTTPS Application Load Balancer .

I can successfully see Keycloak Home Page : https://keycloak.skycomposer.net/auth/

But when I click on Admin Console link, then the Blank Page is shown: https://keycloak.skycomposer.net/auth/admin/master/console/

Browser Inspect Tool shows that: http://keycloak.skycomposer.net/auth/js/keycloak.js?version=rk826 link returns the following status:

(blocked:mixed-content)

I did some research on the internet and the reason seems to be related with redirection from https to http , which is not correctly handled by istio gateway and aws load balancer

But unfortunately, I couldn't find the solution, how to solve it for my particular environment.

Here are my configuration files:

I successfully installed istio 1.9.1 with istioctl :

istioctl install \
  --set meshConfig.accessLogFile=/dev/stdout \
  --skip-confirmation

Also, I labelled default namespace with istio injection , so all my pods in default namespace have istio sidecar container :

kubectl label namespace default istio-injection=enabled

NAME                                         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE

Here is also terraform configuration of AWS Load Balancer :

resource "aws_lb" "mtc_lb" {
  name            = "mtc-loadbalancer"
  subnets         = var.public_subnets
  security_groups = [var.public_sg]
  idle_timeout    = 400
}

resource "aws_lb_target_group" "mtc_tg" {
  name     = "mtc-lb-tg-${substr(uuid(), 0, 3)}"
  port     = var.tg_port
  protocol = var.tg_protocol
  vpc_id   = var.vpc_id
  lifecycle {
    create_before_destroy = true
    ignore_changes        = [name]
  }
  health_check {
    healthy_threshold   = var.elb_healthy_threshold
    unhealthy_threshold = var.elb_unhealthy_threshold
    timeout             = var.elb_timeout
    interval            = var.elb_interval
  }
}

resource "aws_lb_listener" "mtc_lb_listener_http" {
  load_balancer_arn = aws_lb.mtc_lb.arn
  port              = 80
  protocol          = "HTTP"

  default_action {
    type = "redirect"

    redirect {
      port        = "443"
      protocol    = "HTTPS"
      status_code = "HTTP_301"
    }
  }
}

resource "aws_lb_listener" "mtc_lb_listener" {
  load_balancer_arn = aws_lb.mtc_lb.arn
  port              = 443
  protocol          = "HTTPS"
  depends_on        = [aws_lb_target_group.mtc_tg]
  certificate_arn   = var.certificate_arn

  default_action {
    type             = "forward"
    target_group_arn = aws_lb_target_group.mtc_tg.arn
  }
}

Answer 1

Investigating request headers , I finally found the cause of the issue.

This header was always " http " by default:

X-Forwarded-Proto: http

Changing the value to:

X-Forwarded-Proto: https

solved the issue.

Here is the example of Istio Virtual Service , which sets " X-Forwarded-Proto " request header to " https " for all requests:

apiVersion: networking.istio.io/v1beta1
kind: VirtualService
metadata:
  name: keycloak
spec:
  hosts:
    - keycloak.skycomposer.net
  gateways:
    - istio-gateway
  http:
    - match:
        - uri:
            prefix: /
      route:
        - destination:
            host: keycloak.default.svc.cluster.local
            port:
              number: 80
          headers:
            request:
              set:
                x-forwarded-proto: https

PS Ideal solution would be to set this value in AWS Application Load Balancer , but I wasn't sure how to do it with my terraform configuration of aws load balancer , so I decided to solve it on Istio Virtual Service level.
