Spring OAuth ClassCast from principal to user obj

We've recently ugpraded Spring Security from 3.1.3 to 4.01, and we've had to make some changes to our OAuth configs that left some requests breaking with a class cast when they try to cast the principal to a user -- specifically, it's the string form of the client id.
Here are the relevant sections of our configs.
For context, our standard auth management (which returns a user for the principal):
<!-- define an authentication-manager who uses a custom userDetailService -->
<sec:authentication-manager alias="authenticationManager">
<!-- Utility username / password form based authentication-provider -->
<sec:authentication-provider user-service-ref="adminUserDetailsService">
<!-- etc. -->
</sec:authentication-provider>
</sec:authentication-manager>
Secondly, our filter that looks stuff up in a oauth client details table and adds auth:
<bean id="oauth2ProviderFilter" class="blah.blah.blah.BlahOAuth2AuthenticationProcessingFilter">
<property name="authenticationManager">
<bean class="org.springframework.security.oauth2.provider.authentication.OAuth2AuthenticationManager">
<property name="tokenServices" ref="oauth2TokenServices" />
</bean>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="oauth2TokenServices" class="org.springframework.security.oauth2.provider.token.DefaultTokenServices">
<property name="tokenStore" ref="tokenStore" />
<property name="supportRefreshToken" value="true" />
</bean>
<bean id="tokenStore" class="org.springframework.security.oauth2.provider.token.JdbcTokenStore">
<constructor-arg ref="dataSource" />
</bean>
<bean id="dataSource" class="com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource" destroy-method="close">
<!-- etc... -->
</bean>
Checking the token in the headers:
<bean id="oauth2ClientCredentialsTokenEndpointFilter"
class="org.springframework.security.oauth2.provider.client.ClientCredentialsTokenEndpointFilter">
<constructor-arg index="0" value="/oauth/authorize" />
<property name="authenticationManager" ref="oauthAuthenticationManager" />
</bean>
<bean id="oauthAuthenticationManager" class="org.springframework.security.authentication.ProviderManager">
<constructor-arg>
<list>
<ref bean="oauthDaoAuthenticationProvider"/>
</list>
</constructor-arg>
</bean>
<bean id="oauthDaoAuthenticationProvider" class="org.springframework.security.authentication.dao.DaoAuthenticationProvider">
<property name="userDetailsService" ref="oauthUserDetailService" />
<property name="passwordEncoder" ref="oauthPasswordEncoder" />
</bean>
Our best theory at the moment is that something within the endpoint filter has stopped doing a look up of the user object and instead just returns the user id -- is this known to be the case? Where have we gone wrong in our set up?

Support Basic Authentication + LDAP and Pre-Authenticated at the same time

I have a security app context which works fine with Pre-authentication.
I would want to know if it is possible to have both Basic Authentication (With LDAP Bind as authentication manager) and Pre-authentication effective at the same time:
If container provides principal name, we will rely on it (and go to LDAP to get user details), and if pre-authentication of container does not happen (e.g. we have deployed in Jetty for testing without pre-authetication), we would want Basic Authentication to be used which in turns authenticated by LDAP Bind.
Is it something possible? How can I do it?
Here is my existing (simplified) app context:
<s:global-method-security

<bean id="ldapAuthorities" class="com.fil.ims.LdapAuthoritiesServices" />
I have tried the followings but none of them works
add a new ldap authentication provider (org.springframework.security.ldap.authentication.LdapAuthenticationProvider), and add one more <s:authentication-provider> entry under <s:authentication-manager>, or
add a separate org.springframework.security.web.authentication.www.BasicAuthenticationFilter, which points to a new <s:authentication-provider> which points to the new ldap authentication provider (It is complaining for "An AuthenticationEntryPoint is required".)
What should be the right way to do so?
From my bare understanding, seems 2 should be the right way, if someone can give me some direction, it will be good enough.
Thanks

Pre-authentication in Spring Security + LDAP

Here is what I want to achieve:
I am using Websphere and I want to rely on the container to do the authentication (using Kerberos+SPNEGO). When it come to Spring Security, I want to rely on the pre-authentication, and use LDAP to retrieve user details (roles etc) for authorization checking.
Here is the part of Spring app context config I have (tried to only include related parts)
<s:global-method-security secured-annotations="enabled" pre-post-annotations="enabled" proxy-target-class="true" />

It mostly worked, I can see correct user name and role coming in for my custom UserDetailsMapper (com.foo.MyUserDetailsMapper) which comes from LDAP, and inside that I am returning a new UserDetails with updated roles.
The problem is, in my controller, when I tried to do
SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication()
It is returning null. (For which works before I change to pre-authentication)
Is there anything I missed?

Found the problem. Sorry that is mostly because of my own implementation fault which is not visible in the question itself.
My custom UserDetails impl is incorrectly having getEnabled() returning false. In LdapAuthenticationProvider, it is working fine as there is no checking on the user status.
However, in PreAuthenticatedAuthenticationProvider, by default there is a UserDetailsChecker which checks the status of user, for which getEnabled() returning false will cause the user details checker to fail silently, and causing authentication not populated to SecurityContext (i.e. treating that account as not authenticated)
Although it is mostly my implementation issue, I think still worth leaving here as a reference for difference of LdapAuthenticationProvider and PreAuthenticatedAuthenticationProvider

CAS Spring Security Java - Not Authorizing with User Details Service Not Loading Roles

I am using latest version of spring 3.2.5 and spring security 3.1.4 with java 6. I have setup CAS server using the instructions from this page
https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASUM/Best+Practice+-+Setting+Up+CAS+Locally+using+the+Maven+WAR+Overlay+Method
The CAS server part is working fine and authenticating.
I have setup client side using the instructions from this page and various other pages
https://wiki.jasig.org/display/CASC/Configuring+the+JA-SIG+CAS+Client+for+Java+using+Spring
When tried to enter secure page in the application, CAS is redirecting to the correct login page and then correctly authenticating and then correctly redirecting to the calling application page, but not invoking the user details service supplied and not authorizing the user and not loading roles using the user details service.
After authentication user lands on this page. The page was correct but I don't want to see the ticket parameter in the URL and also load the user and roles using user details service bean supplied.
http://localhost:8080/my/sports-life/schedule?ticket=ST-3-xklhdGJW6gZxieELGxo5-cas01.example.org
Any pointers to get my authorization going is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Here are the relevant beans from application context

Then here are relevant config from my spring security configuration file.
<http use-expressions="true" entry-point-ref="casEntryPoint">
<intercept-url pattern="/app/j_spring_cas*" access="permitAll"
requires-channel="https" />
<!-- Member -->
<intercept-url pattern="/app/**" access="isAuthenticated()" />
<access-denied-handler error-page="/app/login/accessdenied" />
<anonymous />
<http-basic />
<custom-filter position="CAS_FILTER" ref="casFilter" />
</http>
<authentication-manager alias="preAuthenticationManager">
<authentication-provider ref="casAuthenticationProvider" />
<!--
<authentication-provider user-service-ref='accountDetailsService' />
-->
</authentication-manager>

i think the anonymous tag applies the role *IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY* to a user.
the result of this is that the user isAuthenticated() and no further filter is invoked (e.g. the one who calls the UserDetailsServive)
change isAuthenticated() to hasRole('ROLE')

I have an example cas client You can check in cas-web-client how provide your own authorization

We ran into lot of issues and at the end the main culprit was url rewriting filter. This filter was changing url and then spring security and cas failed to handled the changed URL. After moving the url rewrite filter below the security filters, it's all started working.

Implement SSO using CAS + Spring Security

I'm trying to implement SSO across several web applications using CAS and Spring Security. Expected case:
CAS - http:// localhost:8080/cas/
App A protected content - http: //localhost:8081/cas-client1/secure/index.html
App B protected content - http: //localhost:8081/cas-client2/secure/index.html
1) When user access cas-client1, CAS login form will be prompted and trigger authentication.
2) The same user access cas-client2, previous login should be recognized and no login form will be prompted
However, I am failed to implement step 2. CAS login form still prompted to user and therefore requires double login. Is there any wrong setting in my Spring Security configuration:
<security:http entry-point-ref="casAuthenticationEntryPoint" auto-config="true">
<security:intercept-url pattern="/secure/**" access="ROLE_USER" />
<security:custom-filter position="CAS_FILTER" ref="casAuthenticationFilter" />
</security:http>
<bean id="casAuthenticationEntryPoint" class="org.springframework.security.cas.web.CasAuthenticationEntryPoint">
<property name="loginUrl" value="http://localhost:8080/cas/login" />
<property name="serviceProperties" ref="serviceProperties" />
</bean>
<bean id="serviceProperties" class="org.springframework.security.cas.ServiceProperties">
<!-- http://localhost:8081/cas-client2 for app 2-->
<property name="service" value="http://localhost:8081/cas-client1/j_spring_cas_security_check" />
</bean>
<security:authentication-manager alias="authenticationManager">

</security:authentication-manager>
<bean id="casAuthenticationFilter" class="org.springframework.security.cas.web.CasAuthenticationFilter">
<property name="authenticationManager" ref="authenticationManager" />
<property name="authenticationFailureHandler">
<bean class="org.springframework.security.web.authentication.SimpleUrlAuthenticationFailureHandler">
<property name="defaultFailureUrl" value="/casfailed.jsp" />
</bean>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="casAuthenticationProvider" class="org.springframework.security.cas.authentication.CasAuthenticationProvider">
<property name="userDetailsService" ref="userService" />
<property name="serviceProperties" ref="serviceProperties" />
<property name="ticketValidator">
<bean class="org.jasig.cas.client.validation.Cas20ServiceTicketValidator">
<constructor-arg index="0" value="http://localhost:8080/cas" />
</bean>
</property>
<property name="key" value="an_id_for_this_auth_provider_only" />
</bean>
<security:user-service id="userService">
<security:user name="wilson" password="wilson" authorities="ROLE_USER" />
</security:user-service>

The problem is finally solved. My CAS is using HTTP and therefore need to set secure cookies to false.
Modify ticketGrantingTicketCookieGenerator.xml
p:cookieSecure="false"
