Force login failed
Created 6 years ago by siemike

Hi, I'm going to implement 2FA for my website, basically I will send SMS code to user after login. I've change the LoginFormHandler to redirect to SMS authentication, its works great but when the OTP code succeed I use $authenticator->login($user, true); , redirect to admin panel and it failed. I've tried use both UserAuthenticator and auth()->login($user) but neither of them are succeeded. Anybody in this forum has a same problem?

What you mean you have change LoginFormHandler?

siemike  —  6 years ago

Yes, I've changed LoginFormHandler to redirecting to controller that handle SMS authentication. The problem is I can't do force login. I've tested using $authenticator->login($user, true) and auth()->login($user) but failed

How is it failing? Exception or the session is not being written?

There is no error exception just the session is not written.

Have you tried native Laravel methods? It might have to do with the timing / lifecycle of the response. I know at one point I had to force a refresh because the session was just sitting there but not being attached to the response or something like that.. But.. a form handler should be fine cause it DOES return the response.. so the session would get pushed in after forcing auth..

Can you share your code for the builder? I assume you've verified that it's being overridden properly 😛

Hi, Here's the code for authenticate OTP.

        try {
            $validate = $client->AuthenticationSMSRequest('VB-' . $user->phone, $otpCode, $otpSession['m_challengeCode'], '300');

            if($validate->m_statusCode == '0000') {
                $authenticator->login($user, true);

                return redirect('/admin');
            } else {
                $otpAttempt = request()->session()->get('login_otp_attempt', 0);
                $otpAttempt++;

                if($otpAttempt > $maxOtpAttempt) {
                    $messages->warning('This account is locked. Please contact the Administrator');

                    // request()->session()->forget('login_otp_attempt');

                    $user->enabled = 0;
                    $user->save();

                    return redirect('/admin/login');
                } else {
                    $messages->warning('Your code is expired or invalid, please try again ('.$otpAttempt.').');

                    request()->session()->put('login_otp_attempt', $otpAttempt);

                    $userToken = encrypt($user->email);
                    return redirect("/users/login/otp?token={$userToken}");
                }
            }
        } catch(\Exception $e) {
            echo "Error: " . $e->getMessage() . "<br/><br/>"; 
        } finally {
            if (!is_null($transport)) {
                try {
                    $transport->close();
                } catch(\Exception $e1) {
                    echo "Error: " . $e1->getMessage() . "<br/><br/>";
                }
            }
        }
