Impersonate authenticated user with ProxyPass

[HamburgerJungeJr]

Hi,

I try to get the option GssapiImpersonate working.

Situation: User -----> Apache Proxy --------> Service with Kerberos

My goal is that the user is authenticated on the proxy and the proxy the impersonates the user to provide access to the service. For the sake of simplicity currently the user should authenticate with Basic Auth to the proxy, but this could be replaced by some central auth with MFA or equal.

The docs for GssapiImpersonate state:

The principal of the user is retrieved from the internal r->user identifier which typically holds the username from the authentication results.

So if I understand this correctly: I have an Apache module which sets the variable r->user. mod_auth_gssapi then queries the KDC (in my case MS AD) and gets a kerberos ticket for the username from r->user

My problem is that I get a ticket for the username in GssapiDelegCcacheDir but the proxy request passes the Basic Auth header instead of a kerberos header.

My config: site.conf

<VirtualHost proxy.myproxydomain:80>
        SSLProxyEngine On
        ServerName proxy.myproxydomain
        LogLevel debug
</VirtualHost>

<Location />
        AuthType Basic
        AuthName "SharedSecert-Auth"
        AuthBasicProvider sharedsecret
        AuthSharedSecret "pass"

        GssapiImpersonate On
        GssapiDelegCcacheDir /var/run/httpd/krbcache
        GssapiUseS4U2Proxy Off
        GssapiCredStore client_keytab:/etc/apache2/kerb.keytab
        GssapiCredStore ccache:FILE:/var/run/httpd/krb5ccache
        GssapiCredStore keytab:/etc/apache2/kerb.keytab
        GssapiUseSessions On
        Session On
        SessionCookieName gssapi_session path=/private;httponly;secure; 
        GssapiBasicAuth Off
        GssapiAllowedMech krb5
        Require valid-user

        ProxyPass http://mybackendhost/
</Location>

(The auth module sharedsecret is this module: https://codeberg.org/HamburgerJungeJr/mod_authn_sharedsecret it just puts the username in r->user and accepts the same password for all users, so I dont have to add users for testing)

/etc/krb5.conf

I set the user to be allowed for delegation any authentication protocol on the AD.

Did I minsunderstand the function of GssapiImpersonate or do I have an error in my configuration?
