I want to secure my Spring Boot 2.1 app with Keycloak 4.5.

Currently I cannot start the application due to the following error:

Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: 
org.springframework.beans.factory.support.BeanDefinitionOverrideException: 
 Invalid bean definition with name 'httpSessionManager' defined in class path resource [dummy/service/SecurityConfig.class]: 
 Cannot register bean definition [Root bean: class [null]; scope=; abstract=false; lazyInit=false; autowireMode=3; dependencyCheck=0; autowireCandidate=true; primary=false; factoryBeanName=securityConfig; factoryMethodName=httpSessionManager; initMethodName=null; destroyMethodName=(inferred); defined in class path resource [dummy/SecurityConfig.class]] for bean 'httpSessionManager': 
There is already [Generic bean: class [org.keycloak.adapters.springsecurity.management.HttpSessionManager]; scope=singleton; abstract=false; lazyInit=false; autowireMode=0; dependencyCheck=0; autowireCandidate=true; primary=false; factoryBeanName=null; factoryMethodName=null; initMethodName=null; destroyMethodName=null; defined in URL [jar:file:/.m2/repository/org/keycloak/keycloak-spring-security-adapter/4.5.0.Final/keycloak-spring-security-adapter-4.5.0.Final.jar!/org/keycloak/adapters/springsecurity/management/HttpSessionManager.class]] bound.

My class SecurityConfig (see below) extends from KeycloakWebSecurityConfigurerAdapter. This adapter already defines the bean httpSessionManager.

I understand why this is a problem. Question is, how can I prevent this or fix my conflict?

The Steps I have done so far:

• Built my pom (see below) using:
  
  
  • spring-boot-starter-web
  
  
  • spring-boot-starter-security
  
  
  • keycloak-spring-boot-starter
  
  
  • keycloak-adapter-bom in dependencyManagement
  
  


• Defined an own SecurityConfig extending KeycloakWebSecurityConfigurerAdapter

SecurityConfig.java

@KeycloakConfiguration
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
@Import(KeycloakWebSecurityConfigurerAdapter.class)
class SecurityConfig extends KeycloakWebSecurityConfigurerAdapter 

 @Autowired
 public void configureGlobal(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) 
 KeycloakAuthenticationProvider keycloakAuthenticationProvider = keycloakAuthenticationProvider();
 keycloakAuthenticationProvider.setGrantedAuthoritiesMapper(new SimpleAuthorityMapper());
 auth.authenticationProvider(keycloakAuthenticationProvider);
 

 @Bean
 @Override
 protected SessionAuthenticationStrategy sessionAuthenticationStrategy() 
 return new RegisterSessionAuthenticationStrategy(new SessionRegistryImpl());
 

 @Bean
 public KeycloakConfigResolver keycloakConfigResolver() 
 return new KeycloakSpringBootConfigResolver();
 

 @Override
 protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception 
 super.configure(http);
 http.csrf().ignoringAntMatchers("/**/*");
 http.authorizeRequests()
 .anyRequest().permitAll();
 

Update
There is a known issue (KEYCLOAK-8725). The fix is planned for 5.x of Keycloak. However, there was a workaround in the comments. Just replace the annotation @KeyCloakConfiguration with:

@Configuration
@ComponentScan(
 basePackageClasses = KeycloakSecurityComponents.class,
 excludeFilters = @ComponentScan.Filter(type = FilterType.REGEX, pattern = "org.keycloak.adapters.springsecurity.management.HttpSessionManager"))
@EnableWebSecurity

It looks like there's a bug in Keycloak's Spring Security integration which means that an application that subclasses KeycloakWebSecurityConfigurerAdapter will try to create two beans named httpSessionManager. When two beans are defined with the same name, the second definition that is encountered will attempt to override the first. This overriding is prohibited by default in Spring Boot 2.1. I would recommend reporting this as a bug against Keycloak's Spring Security integration. While you are waiting for the bug to be resolved, you can work around the problem by setting spring.main.allow-bean-definition-overriding=true in application.properties.

This helped me to resolve an issue, remove @KeycloakConfiguration and use this instead (from KEYCLOAK-8725):

Java:

@Configuration
@ComponentScan(
 basePackageClasses = KeycloakSecurityComponents.class,
 excludeFilters = @ComponentScan.Filter(type = FilterType.REGEX, pattern = "org.keycloak.adapters.springsecurity.management.HttpSessionManager"))
@EnableWebSecurity

Kotlin:

@Configuration
@ComponentScan(
 basePackageClasses = [KeycloakSecurityComponents::class],
 excludeFilters = [ComponentScan.Filter(type = FilterType.REGEX, pattern = ["org.keycloak.adapters.springsecurity.management.HttpSessionManager"])]
)
@EnableWebSecurity
