HSO VPN 2FA

This project contains a simple python script to complete the 2FA VPN auth flow for the Hochschule Offenburg.

It retrieves a sso cookie that can be used by openconnect to establish a vpn connection. Although openconnect supports a variety of ways to retrieve the sso cookie, it doesn't provide a convenient way to enter the token manually. With some small modifications to the openconnect project, this feature can be added.

Setup

Clone this repo

For start, clone this repo.

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/Ultimator14/hsovpn-2fa
cd hsovpn-2fa

Building openconnect

The next step is to build a patched version of openconnect. The project comes with some dependencies that must be installed first (libxml, zlib, openssl, pkgconfig). For more information see here.

Install dependencies

# Ubuntu
apt install -y libxml2 zlib1g-dev git python3 python3-pip openssl pkg-config build-essential autotools-dev automake libtool vpnc libssl-dev libxml2-dev python3.10-venv

#Macos
brew install automake
wget https://gitlab.com/openconnect/vpnc-scripts/raw/master/vpnc-script
mkdir /etc/vpnc/ && mv vpnc-script /etc/vpnc/vpnc-script
chmod +x /etc/vpnc/vpnc-script

Build

# Download openconnect
git submodule update --init --recursive

cd openconnect

# Patch the source code with the patch in this repo
git apply ../openconnect.patch

# Build openconnect
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
cd ..

Install

You can use the openconnect binary directly from the build directory. There is no need to install. However if you want to install into /usr/local/, you can do so with make install.

Note: The openconnect library will be installed into /usr/local/lib, which is not in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for some systems. If you get errors like this

openconnect: error while loading shared libraries: libopenconnect.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

then try adding the directory to the library path with

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib"

Installing python dependencies

Third, install the required python dependencies. We use a virtual environment here.

# Create virtualenv
python3 -m venv venv
# Install requirements
source ./venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Configuration

The script needs some configuration to work. This is done in secrets.json.

Add the patched version of openconnect to the openconnect.executable if not installed.

Credentials

It's required that you enable 2FA authentication for your HS account and setup a TOTP secret. Then add your credentials (username, password) as well as the TOTP secret (totp) to the secrets.json file. You can omit the totp secret. That way you will be prompted to enter your 6 digit TOTP pin instead.

The totp secret has to be encoded as base32. If you have a hex-encoded secret, prefix the secret with hex:.

VPN config

The parameters login-url and sso-cookie-name should already be set to the correct value. If you want to adapt the script to another 2FA flow, you can determine these values by making an openconnect request like this (adapt authgroup to your needs).

openconnect -vvv --dump-http-traffic --authgroup=2 --protocol=anyconnect --useragent="AnyConnect" vpn.hs-offenburg.de

The result should contain login-url and sso-cookie-name in the form

...
< <sso-v2-login>https://vpn.hs-offenburg.de/+CSCOE+/saml/sp/login?tgname=SSL-Group&acsamlcap=v2</sso-v2-login>
...
< <sso-v2-token-cookie-name>acSamlv2Token</sso-v2-token-cookie-name>
...

Note: If the login url contains encoded characters like &#x26;, they must be replaced with their actual character (in this case &).

Running openconnect

The script can be configured to directly run openconnect with the correct parameters. This is done in the openconnect section of secrets.json. It contains prefix and suffix of the openconnect command as well as the domain to connect to and the openconnect executable name/path. The openconnect call with the predefined values is equivalent to

sudo openconnect \
    --protocol=anyconnect \
    --useragent=AnyConnect \
    --token-mode=anyconnect-sso \
    --token-secret=SECRET_COOKIE_VALUE_HERE \
    vpn.hs-offenburg.de \
    --authgroup=2 \
    -vvv --dump-http-traffic \

Note that openconnect must be in PATH with the default settings. A custom openconnect binary can be specified via the executable option.

You can remove the openconnect key from the secrets.json file to disable the direct invocation of openconnect. The script will then only output the sso-cookie.

Debugging

If the authentication doesn't work, you can enable the debug option. This will dump the contents of the intermediate pages visited during the 2FA procedure. It will also output more information. Don't use this during every-day usage. It will print your credentials.
