Log in to SilverStripe with an authenticator app on your phone as a secondary factor, using a time-based one-time password (TOTP).
This module provides a TOTP authenticator that plugs in to the silverstripe/mfa module.
For more information about TOTP, see RFC 6238.
- PHP ^7.1
- SilverStripe ^4.1
- silverstripe/mfa: ^4.0
- spomky-labs/otphp: ^9.1
Install with Composer:
composer require silverstripe/totp-authenticator ^4.0
For SilverStripe 3.7 support, please use silverstripe/totp-authenticator ^3.0
.
You will need to define an environment variable named SS_MFA_SECRET_KEY
with a random secret key, which is used
for encrypting the TOTP secret. The authentication method will not be available for use until this is correctly defined.
Please note that existing registered TOTP methods for users will not be usable on environments with different values
for SS_MFA_SECRET_KEY
than they were registered in.
There are many ways to create a random secret key, the easiest
is by executing a php
command on the command line. The secret key length depends on your
specific information security controls, but 32 characters is a good baseline.
php -r 'echo substr(base64_encode(random_bytes(32)), 0, 32) . "\n";'
You can also configure the length of the TOTP secret. This is the code that is displayed to users when they register
to use TOTP, for example "alternatively, enter this code manually into your app." The default length is 16 characters.
If you do not want to support manual code entry in your project, you may want to increase the length in order to
increase the entropy of the TOTP secret, however removing the secret from the UI will require adjustments to the React
components. See the RegisterHandler.secret_length
configuration property.
SilverStripe\TOTP\RegisterHandler:
secret_length: 64
If you want to change the length of the TOTP codes the application accepts, you can adjust Method.code_length
. The
default length is 6 characters.
SilverStripe\TOTP\Method:
code_length: 10
When this method is used on the website during the multi-factor login process, it may show a "find out more" link
to user documentation. You can disable this by nullifying the configuration property RegisterHandler.user_help_link
or you can change it to point to your own documentation instead:
SilverStripe\TOTP\RegisterHandler:
user_help_link: 'https://intranet.mycompany.com/help-docs/using-totp'
The TOTP "issuer" is the SilverStripe site name (set in SiteConfig) by default, and the "label" is the member's email
address by default. These are the values that show up in your authenticator app. You can change these if you need
to use something else, by writing an extension on RegisterHandler
:
class MyTOTPRegisterHandlerExtension extends Extension
{
public function updateTotp(\OTPHP\TOTPInterface $totp, \SilverStripe\Security\Member $member)
{
$totp->setLabel($member->getCustomTOTPLabel());
$totp->setIssuer('My web project');
}
}
