How do I reduce Spring Boot's docker image size?
With my current Dockerfile configuration for a barebones spring app (straight from start.spring.io) with dependencies like web, redis, postgres, security, mail sender, etc, the size of the image is at ~350mb and I was told this was pretty large for a barebones application.
Here's my dockerfile
how can I optimise it?

How to access authenticated user/authentication object on react frontend after logging in?
I've set up a basic authentication flow using Spring Security 6 on my backend, with React handling the frontend for login, signup, and verification pages. It's all session cookie-based, no JWT, with sessions stored in Redis.
Now, I'm wondering how I can handle things on the React side once a user logs in. How do I check if a user is logged in to restrict access to certain pages? I want to redirect them to the login page if they're not logged in or restrict page access based on their roles. Any tips on how to manage this? I also want to be able to get access to the authenticated user's details like their email, username, etc unless this isn't possible without implementing a
/me
endpoint on the backend that fetches the user details for me.45 replies

Trying to implement CSRF protection with Spring Security and React frontend
I'm trying to get CSRF protection to work using spring security but I keep getting a 403 forbidden error when trying to make a post request to a csrf protected endpoint using postman. I followed the docs to the letter - this one to be specific with the only change being I replaced this line
.addFilterAfter(new CsrfCookieFilter(), BasicAuthenticationFilter.class);
with .addFilterAfter(new CsrfCookieFilter(), customUsernamePasswordAuthFilter.getClass())
as I have implemented a custom UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter
to work with my frontend SPA built using react.
On postman, there are two cookies present - SESSION
and XSRF-TOKEN
and I also include a X-XSRF-TOKEN
header while making the post request and still get a forbidden error.
I'm not currently sending any requests from the SPA directly. Just using postman for now.6 replies

Session not being created after explicitly authenticating user in spring security
I'm currently trying to implement a session based authentication using spring security and have managed to get the registration and email verification functionality working. I want the user to be authenticated after verifying their email and then be redirected to the onboarding page and then to dashboard on completion of onboarding.
I have logged the authentication to console to debug and when there isn't any user then I get a console log with the authentication object containing
anonymousUser
and also a sessionId.
But, when I explicitly try to authenticate the user, the authentication object contains all the info about the user such as principal, etc but not sessionId. any help, please?
Here is my security config.
