disabling spring security in spring boot app [duplicate]

I have a spring boot web app with spring security configured. I want to disable authentication for a while (until needed).

I add this to the application.properties:

security.basic.enable: false   
management.security.enabled: false  

Here is some part of my

But I still have a basic security included : There is a default security password generated at startup and I am still getting HTTP Authentication prompt box.

The security is configured in WebSecurityConfig.java (I have commented the annotation to disable it) :

//@Configuration
//@EnableWebSecurity
//@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true)
//@Order(SecurityProperties.ACCESS_OVERRIDE_ORDER)
public class WebSecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
    @Autowired
    UserDetailsService userDetailsService;

    @Autowired
    UserService userService;

    @Autowired
    private DataSource datasource;

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        // http.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/bus/topologie", "/home")
        // http.authorizeRequests().anyRequest().authenticated()
        // .antMatchers("/admin/**").access("hasRole('ADMIN')").and()
        // .formLogin().failureUrl("/login?error")
        // .defaultSuccessUrl("/bus/topologie").loginPage("/login")
        // .permitAll().and().logout()
        // .logoutRequestMatcher(new AntPathRequestMatcher("/logout"))
        // .logoutSuccessUrl("/login").permitAll().and().rememberMe()
        // .rememberMeParameter("remember-me")
        // .tokenRepository(persistentTokenRepository())
        // .tokenValiditySeconds(86400).and().csrf();
    }

    @Bean
    public PersistentTokenRepository persistentTokenRepository() {
        JdbcTokenRepositoryImpl tokenRepositoryImpl = new JdbcTokenRepositoryImpl();
        tokenRepositoryImpl.setDataSource(datasource);
        return tokenRepositoryImpl;
    }

    @Override
    protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth)
            throws Exception {

        PasswordEncoder encoder = new BCryptPasswordEncoder();

        auth.userDetailsService(userDetailsService).passwordEncoder(encoder);
        auth.jdbcAuthentication().dataSource(datasource);

        if (!userService.userExists("user")) {
            User userAdmin = new User("user", encoder.encode("password"), true);
            Set<Authorities> authorities = new HashSet<Authorities>();
            authorities.add(new Authorities(userAdmin,"ADMIN"));
            authorities.add(new Authorities(userAdmin,"CRIP"));
            authorities.add(new Authorities(userAdmin,"USER"));
            userAdmin.setAuthorities(authorities);

            userService.createUser(userAdmin);
        }
    }

}

Use security.ignored property:

security.ignored=/**

security.basic.enable: false will just disable some part of the security auto-configurations but your WebSecurityConfig still will be registered.

There is a default security password generated at startup

Try to Autowired the AuthenticationManagerBuilder:

@Override
@Autowired
protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception { ... }

Try this. Make a new class

@Configuration
public class SecurityConfiguration extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity httpSecurity) throws Exception {
        httpSecurity.authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/").permitAll();
}

}

Basically this tells Spring to allow access to every url. @Configuration tells spring it's a configuration class


security.ignored is deprecated since Spring Boot 2.

For me simply extend the Annotation of your Application class did the Trick:

@SpringBootApplication(exclude = SecurityAutoConfiguration.class)
