HTTP Authentication for TYPO3
=============================

[](#http-authentication-for-typo3)

This TYPO3 extension allows frontend access restriction by using HTTP Authentication ([RFC 7235](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7235)). The functionality will co-exist with the TYPO3 authentication system, but neither will influence the other.

Supported authentication schemes
--------------------------------

[](#supported-authentication-schemes)

- Basic ([RFC 7617](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7617))

### Planned additions

[](#planned-additions)

- Digest ([RFC 7616](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7616))
- Bearer Token ([RFC 6750](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6750))

Features
--------

[](#features)

### 1. Access definitions without the TYPO3 authentication system

[](#1-access-definitions-without-the-typo3-authentication-system)

### 2. Define access to the TYPO3 frontend on different levels

[](#2-define-access-to-the-typo3-frontend-on-different-levels)

Access definition can be edited through the TYPO3 backend interfaceIntegrators, editors### 3. Secure access definitions by default

[](#3-secure-access-definitions-by-default)

The system only works with hashed passwords, no plaintext storage of secrets is allowed. Available hashing methods are:

1. Default: PHP's `password_hash()` with `PASSWORD_BCRYPT` ()
2. Advanced: TYPO3 Password Hashing ().
3. Planned: Apache-style MD5 salted hashing. This hash is not secure, but it is the default hashing method of the `htpasswd` tool and thus widely used.

### 4. Idea: TYPO3 authentication service

[](#4-idea-typo3-authentication-service)

Authenticate frontend user logins via HTTP Authentication, rather than through the default felogin. Combine the Middleware with an Authentication Service ().

Installation
------------
