#1680 RFE: Custom Authz Plugin that shells out to an arbitrary application or script
Closed: migrated 3 years ago by dmoluguw. Opened 8 years ago by dminnich.

It would be nice to have an authz plugin that calls out to a user specified custom command. It should also have a timeout value so if the custom script runs too long RHCS just denies the request. RHCS should read the exit status of the external command to make authorization decisions. RHCS should pass profile form values to the specified script as input parameters.

Our use case is somebody wants to add an email address to a user cert as a SAN via a text box but we need to validate that they own the alias before allowing it. This requires an org specific LDAP query.

I can see other use cases like looking things up in SQL DBs or other out of band things as well.
