How to create an Authentication plugin (interceptop) for ActiveMQ (for MQTT) that uses a JWT (JWS) to...

I basically need a controlled MQTT broker.
I need to create authentication and authorization system for MQTT broker made with Embedded ActiveMQ. It will check forI want to use Java (Spring Boot).
I want to disable automatic topic creation. I will manually create then from Java code.
I want to authorize a user to connect to a topic, whether it is to publish or subscribe. Everything in run-time.



I have read about plugins from activemq site. But don't get the full extent, how to create a plugin to authorize for individual topics. I need to be able to modify my whitelist in run time.

    Your title mentions JWT (JWS) but the question doesn't mention anything about it. What is the role of JWT (JWS) here? Also, why do you need to create a custom plugin for authorization rather than just using the built-in authorization functionality to grant read and write permissions on the necessary topics?

  • The topics have to be created in a controlled manner by the server application. No preloaded topic. And I need to assign some topics to some users. All programatically. I was thinking about giving a user a JWS instead of using MQTT standard Username/Password field and use DB. As I do not want to access DB for each Publush/Subscribe. I was thinking about putting that JWS in Username field and use a custom plugin. The request to create topic and sharing of JWS is done using another channel based on simple HTTPS request.

  • I can also do with any other broker (preferablly embeddable). But it needs to be free. HiveMQ has similar type of authorization, what I am thinking about ( hivemq.com/blog/mqtt-security-fundamentals-authorization ). But it is not free for production.

  • Are you asking about the ActiveMQ 5.x broker or the newer ActiveMQ Artemis broker?
