ReBAC Validation Checklist | Kamiwaza Docs
This is documentation for Kamiwaza 0.9.0, which is no longer actively maintained. For the current GA release, see 1.0.1.
Version: 0.9.0
After completing the ReBAC Deployment Guide, run this validation checklist to confirm tuple enforcement, audit logging, and session controls match the current Kamiwaza artifacts. The flow mirrors what we run internally before shipping daily builds.
Platform assumptions
- Environment meets the published Kamiwaza system requirements for this release (minimum RHEL 9.6+). See System Requirements for details.
- The ReBAC Deployment Guide steps completed successfully on the same host, including seeding with
run_oidc_uat.sh. - You can reach the Traefik gateway (
https://<gateway-host>) from your workstation to run curl commands.
Prerequisites
- Kamiwaza environment with the current Auth/ReBAC services running (RPM or compose stack).
- Deployment guide steps completed, including seeding with
run_oidc_uat.shand service restarts. - Tuple bootstrap applied:
uv run python scripts/rebac_tenant.py bootstrap configs/rebac/tenants/__default__.yaml
- CLI utilities:
curl,jq, and access todocker composeorjournalctlfor logs.
The helper script seeds demo users in Keycloak (credentials are printed when the script finishes and stored in runtime/oidc-uat.env):
| Username | Password | Role |
|---|---|---|
admin |
kamiwaza |
Owner (full control) |
testuser |
testpass |
Viewer |
testadmin |
testpass |
Admin (session purge) |
Capture bearer tokens
OWNER_TOKEN=$(
curl -sS https://<gateway-host>/api/auth/token \
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
-d 'grant_type=password' \
-d 'username=admin' \
-d 'password=kameras' \
-d 'client_id=kamiwaza-platform' \
| jq -r '.access_token'
)
VIEWER_TOKEN=$(
curl -sS https://<gateway-host>/api/auth/token \
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
-d 'grant_type=password' \
-d 'username=testuser' \
-d 'password=testpass' \
-d 'client_id=kamiwaza-platform' \
| jq -r '.access_token'
)
ADMIN_TOKEN=$(
curl -sS https://<gateway-host>/api/auth/token \
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
-d 'grant_type=password' \
-d 'username=testadmin' \
-d 'password=testpass' \
-d 'client_id=kamiwaza-platform' \
| jq -r '.access_token'
)
for token in OWNER_TOKEN VIEWER_TOKEN ADMIN_TOKEN; do
test -n "${!token}" || { echo "failed to fetch ${token}" >&2; exit 1; }
done
If token retrieval fails, double-check that the deployment guide variables are sourced and that Keycloak is reachable from the gateway host.
Authentication checkpoints
- Browser login: visit
https://<gateway-host>/api/auth/login, sign in with the seededadmincredentials, and confirm you are redirected back without errors. - Session validation:
curl -i https://<gateway-host>/api/auth/validate \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${OWNER_TOKEN}"
Expect HTTP 200 with X-User-* headers populated.
3. Session purge (admin):
curl -s https://<gateway-host>/api/auth/sessions/purge \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${ADMIN_TOKEN}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"tenant_id":"__default__","subject_namespace":"user","subject_id":"testuser"}'
Response should include {"revoked": <count>}.
Authorization checks
Fetch resource identifiers for the demo tenant:
MODEL_ID=$(
curl -s "https://<gateway-host>/api/models?limit=1" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${OWNER_TOKEN}" \
| jq -r '.items[0].id'
)
DATASET_URN=$(
curl -s "https://<gateway-host>/api/catalog/datasets?limit=1" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${OWNER_TOKEN}" \
| jq -r '.items[0].urn'
)
echo "MODEL_ID=${MODEL_ID}"
echo "DATASET_URN=${DATASET_URN}"
- Owner delete succeeds
curl -s -X DELETE "https://<gateway-host>/api/models/${MODEL_ID}" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${OWNER_TOKEN}" \
-o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n"
Expect 200. Tail logs for rebac_decision with result="allow".
- Viewer delete denied
curl -s -X DELETE "https://<gateway-host>/api/models/${MODEL_ID}" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${VIEWER_TOKEN}" \
-o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n"
Expect 403 and a deny log with relation="owner".
- Dataset delete (owner)
curl -s -X DELETE "https://<gateway-host>/api/catalog/datasets/by-urn?urn=${DATASET_URN}" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${OWNER_TOKEN}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n"
Expect 204 and corresponding allow logs.
- Dataset delete (viewer denied)
curl -s -X DELETE "https://<gateway-host>/api/catalog/datasets/by-urn?urn=${DATASET_URN}" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${VIEWER_TOKEN}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n"
Expect 403.
Observability
- Logs
docker compose logs auth | grep rebac_decision
Or, if using the RPM systemd units:
journalctl -u kamiwaza-auth.service | grep rebac_decision
Confirm allow/deny entries include deployment_id, relation, and correlation IDs.
- Redis
Verify TLS configuration matches your security policy (
rediss://for production). Document anyAUTH_REBAC_SESSION_ALLOW_INSECURE=trueexceptions for development environments.
Success criteria
✅ Login flow completes and issues session cookies.
✅ Tuple enforcement allows owners and blocks viewers.
✅ Decision logs capture both allow/deny outcomes.
✅ Session purge responds with revoked counts.
Archive the curl outputs and log excerpts alongside the RPM build you validated for auditability.
