How to: Secure Metadata Endpoints

Metadata for a service can contain sensitive information about your application that a malicious user can leverage. Consumers of your service may also require a secure mechanism for obtaining metadata about your service. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to publish your metadata using a secure endpoint.

Metadata endpoints are generally secured using the standard security mechanisms defined in Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) for securing application endpoints. (Pour plus d'informations, consultez Vue d'ensemble de la sécurité.)

This topic walks through the steps to create an endpoint secured by a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate or, in other words, an HTTPS endpoint.

To create a secure HTTPS GET metadata endpoint in code

  1. Configure a port with an appropriate X.509 certificate. The certificate must come from a trusted authority, and it must have an intended use of "Service Authorization." You must use the HttpCfg.exe tool to attach the certificate to the port. See Comment : configurer un port avec un certificat SSL.

    ms733114.Important(fr-fr,VS.100).gif Remarque :
    The subject of the certificate or its Domain Name System (DNS) must match the name of the computer. This is essential because one of the first steps the HTTPS mechanism performs is to check that the certificate is issued to the same Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) as the address upon which it is invoked.

  2. Create a new instance of the ServiceMetadataBehavior class.

  3. Set the HttpsGetEnabled property of the ServiceMetadataBehavior class to true.

  4. Set the HttpsGetUrl property to an appropriate URL. Note that if you specify an absolute address, the URL must begin with the scheme "https://". If you specify a relative address, you must supply an HTTPS base address for your service host. If this property is not set, the default address is "", or directly at the HTTPS base address for the service.

  5. Add the instance to the behaviors collection that the Behaviors property of the ServiceDescription class returns, as shown in the following code.

    ' Create a new metadata behavior object and set its properties to 
    ' create a secure endpoint. 
    Dim sb As New ServiceMetadataBehavior()
    
    With sb
        .HttpsGetEnabled = True
        .HttpsGetUrl = New Uri("https://myMachineName:8036/myEndpoint")
    End With
    
    With myServiceHost
        .Description.Behaviors.Add(sb)
        .Open()
    End With
    
    // Create a new metadata behavior object and set its properties to 
    // create a secure endpoint. 
    ServiceMetadataBehavior sb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
    sb.HttpsGetEnabled = true;
    sb.HttpsGetUrl = new Uri("https://myMachineName:8036/myEndpoint");
    myServiceHost.Description.Behaviors.Add(sb);
    
    myServiceHost.Open();
    

To create a secure HTTPS GET metadata endpoint in configuration

  1. Add a <behaviors> element to the <system.ServiceModel> element of the configuration file for your service.

  2. Add a <serviceBehaviors> element to the <Behaviors> element.

  3. Add a <behavior> of <serviceBehaviors> element to the <serviceBehaviors> element.

  4. Set the name attribute of the <behavior> element to an appropriate value. The name attribute is required. The example below uses the value mySvcBehavior.

  5. Add a <serviceMetadata> Element to the <behavior> element.

  6. Set the httpsGetEnabled attribute of the <serviceMetadata> element to true.

  7. Set the httpsGetUrl attribute of the <serviceMetadata> element to an appropriate value. Note that if you specify an absolute address, the URL must begin with the scheme "https://". If you specify a relative address, you must supply an HTTPS base address for your service host. If this property is not set, the default address is "", or directly at the HTTPS base address for the service.

  8. To use the behavior with a service, set the behaviorConfiguration attribute of the <service> element to the value of the name attribute of the behavior element. The following configuration code shows a complete example.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <configuration>
     <system.serviceModel>
      <behaviors>
       <serviceBehaviors>
        <behavior name="mySvcBehavior">
         <serviceMetadata httpsGetEnabled="true" 
              httpsGetUrl="https://localhost:8036/calcMetadata" />
        </behavior>
       </serviceBehaviors>
      </behaviors>
     <services>
      <service behaviorConfiguration="mySvcBehavior" 
            name="Microsoft.Security.Samples.Calculator">
       <endpoint address="https://localhost:8037/ServiceModelSamples/calculator"
       binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration=""   
       contract="Microsoft.Security.Samples.ICalculator" />
      </service>
     </services>
    </system.serviceModel>
    </configuration>
    

Exemple

The following example creates an instance of a ServiceHost class and adds an endpoint. The code then creates an instance of the ServiceMetadataBehavior class and sets the properties to create a secure metadata exchange point.

Dim myBinding As New WSHttpBinding()
With myBinding.Security
    .Mode = SecurityMode.Message
    .Message.ClientCredentialType = MessageCredentialType.Windows
End With

' Create the Type instances for later use and the URI for 
' the base address.
Dim contractType = GetType(ICalculator)
Dim serviceType = GetType(Calculator)
Dim baseAddress As New Uri("https://localhost:8037/serviceModelSamples/")

' Create the ServiceHost and add an endpoint. 
Dim myServiceHost As New ServiceHost(serviceType, baseAddress)
myServiceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(contractType, myBinding, "secureCalculator")

' Create a new metadata behavior object and set its properties to 
' create a secure endpoint. 
Dim sb As New ServiceMetadataBehavior()

With sb
    .HttpsGetEnabled = True
    .HttpsGetUrl = New Uri("https://myMachineName:8036/myEndpoint")
End With

With myServiceHost
    .Description.Behaviors.Add(sb)
    .Open()
End With

' Use the GetHostEntry method to return the actual machine name.
Dim machineName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry("").HostName
Console.WriteLine("Listening @ {0}:8037/serviceModelSamples/", machineName)
Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to close the service")
Console.ReadLine()
myServiceHost.Close()
WSHttpBinding myBinding = new WSHttpBinding();
myBinding.Security.Mode = SecurityMode.Message;
myBinding.Security.Message.ClientCredentialType =
    MessageCredentialType.Windows;


// Create the Type instances for later use and the URI for 
// the base address.
Type contractType = typeof(ICalculator);
Type serviceType = typeof(Calculator);
Uri baseAddress = new
    Uri("https://localhost:8037/serviceModelSamples/");

// Create the ServiceHost and add an endpoint. 
ServiceHost myServiceHost =
    new ServiceHost(serviceType, baseAddress);
myServiceHost.AddServiceEndpoint
    (contractType, myBinding, "secureCalculator");
// Create a new metadata behavior object and set its properties to 
// create a secure endpoint. 
ServiceMetadataBehavior sb = new ServiceMetadataBehavior();
sb.HttpsGetEnabled = true;
sb.HttpsGetUrl = new Uri("https://myMachineName:8036/myEndpoint");
myServiceHost.Description.Behaviors.Add(sb);

myServiceHost.Open();
// Use the GetHostEntry method to return the actual machine name.
string machineName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry("").HostName ;
Console.WriteLine("Listening @ {0}:8037/serviceModelSamples/", machineName);
Console.WriteLine("Press Enter to close the service");
Console.ReadLine();
myServiceHost.Close();
