JWT Subscription Embedding Architecture

Overview

The Auth Service implements JWT-embedded subscription data to eliminate runtime HTTP calls from the gateway to tenant-service. Subscription data is fetched once at login time and embedded directly in the JWT token.

Subscription Data Flow

graph TD
    A[User Login] --> B[Auth Service]
    B --> C[Fetch Subscription Data from Tenant Service]
    C --> D[Embed in JWT Token]
    D --> E[Return JWT to Client]
    E --> F[Client Requests API]
    F --> G[Gateway Extracts Subscription from JWT]
    G --> H[Zero HTTP Calls to Tenant Service]

JWT Payload Structure

Access Token with Subscription Data:

{
  "sub": "user-uuid",
  "user_id": "user-uuid",
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "tenant_id": "tenant-uuid",
  "tenant_role": "owner",
  "subscription": {
    "tier": "professional",
    "status": "active",
    "valid_until": "2025-12-31T23:59:59Z"
  },
  "tenant_access": [
    {
      "id": "tenant-uuid-1",
      "role": "admin",
      "tier": "starter"
    }
  ],
  "role": "user",
  "type": "access",
  "exp": 1735689599,
  "iat": 1735687799,
  "iss": "bakery-auth"
}

Key Components

1. SubscriptionFetcher Utility

• File: services/auth/app/utils/subscription_fetcher.py
• Purpose: Fetches subscription data from tenant-service at login time
• Frequency: Called once per login, not per-request
• Data Fetched:
  • Primary tenant ID and role
  • Subscription tier, status, and expiry
  • Multi-tenant access information

2. Enhanced JWT Creation

• File: services/auth/app/core/security.py
• Method: SecurityManager.create_access_token()
• Enhancement: Includes subscription data in JWT payload
• Size Control: Limits tenant_access to 10 entries to prevent JWT bloat

3. Token Refresh Flow

• Purpose: Propagate subscription changes within token expiry window
• Mechanism: Refresh tokens fetch fresh subscription data
• Frequency: Every 15-30 minutes (token expiry)
• Benefit: Subscription changes reflected without requiring re-login

Performance Impact

Before JWT Subscription Embedding:

• Gateway makes 5 HTTP calls per request to tenant-service
• 2,500ms notification endpoint latency
• 5,500ms subscription endpoint latency
• ~520ms overhead on every tenant-scoped request

After JWT Subscription Embedding:

• Zero HTTP calls from gateway to tenant-service for subscription checks
• <1ms subscription validation (JWT extraction only)
• ~200ms notification endpoint latency (92% improvement)
• ~100ms subscription endpoint latency (98% improvement)
• 100% reduction in tenant-service load for subscription validation

Security Considerations

Defense-in-Depth Architecture

1. JWT Signature Verification - Gateway validates token integrity
2. Subscription Data Validation - Validates subscription tier values
3. Token Freshness Check - Detects stale tokens after subscription changes
4. Database Verification - Optional for critical operations
5. Audit Logging - Comprehensive logging for anomaly detection

Token Freshness Mechanism

• When subscription changes, gateway sets Redis key: tenant:{tenant_id}:subscription_changed_at
• Gateway checks if token was issued before subscription change
• Stale tokens are rejected, forcing re-authentication
• Ensures users get fresh subscription data within 15-30 minute window

Multi-Tenant Security

• JWT contains tenant_access array with all accessible tenants
• Each entry includes role and subscription tier
• Gateway validates access to requested tenant
• Prevents tenant ID spoofing attacks

JWT Service Token Architecture

Overview

The Auth Service implements JWT service tokens for secure service-to-service (S2S) authentication across all microservices. This eliminates the need for internal API keys and provides a unified, secure authentication mechanism for both user and service requests.

Service Token vs User Token

User Tokens (for frontend/API consumers):

• type: "access" - Regular user authentication
• Contains user ID, email, tenant membership
• Expires in 15-30 minutes
• Used by browsers and mobile apps

Service Tokens (for microservice communication):

• type: "service" - Internal service authentication
• Contains service name, optional tenant context
• Expires in 1 hour (longer for batch operations)
• Used by backend services calling other services

Service Token Payload Structure

{
  "sub": "demo-session",
  "user_id": "demo-session-service",
  "email": "demo-session-service@internal",
  "service": "demo-session",
  "type": "service",
  "role": "admin",
  "tenant_id": "optional-tenant-uuid",
  "exp": 1735693199,
  "iat": 1735689599,
  "iss": "bakery-auth"
}

Key Features

1. Unified JWT Handler

• File: shared/auth/jwt_handler.py
• Purpose: Single source of truth for token creation and validation
• Method: create_service_token(service_name, tenant_id=None)
• Shared JWT Secret: All services use same JWT_SECRET_KEY from shared/config/base.py

2. Internal Service Registry

• File: shared/config/base.py
• Constant: INTERNAL_SERVICES set containing all 21 microservice names
• Purpose: Automatic access grants for registered services
• Services: gateway, auth, tenant, inventory, production, recipes, suppliers, orders, sales, procurement, pos, forecasting, training, ai-insights, orchestrator, notification, alert-processor, demo-session, external, distribution

3. Service Authentication Flow

┌─────────────────┐
│  Service A      │
│  (e.g., demo)   │
└────────┬────────┘
         │
         │ 1. Create service token
         │    jwt_handler.create_service_token(
         │        service_name="demo-session",
         │        tenant_id=tenant_id
         │    )
         │
         ▼
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  HTTP Request                           │
│  --------------------------------       │
│  POST /api/v1/tenant/clone             │
│  Headers:                               │
│    Authorization: Bearer {token}        │
│    X-Service: demo-session-service      │
└────────┬────────────────────────────────┘
         │
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│  Service B      │
│  (e.g., tenant) │
└────────┬────────┘
         │
         │ 2. Validate token
         │    jwt_handler.verify_token(token)
         │
         │ 3. Check internal service
         │    if is_internal_service(user_id):
         │        grant_admin_access()
         │
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│  Authorized     │
│  Response       │
└─────────────────┘

4. Automatic Admin Privileges

• Services in INTERNAL_SERVICES registry get automatic admin access
• No need for tenant membership checks
• Optimizes database queries (skips membership lookups)
• Used in:
  • shared/auth/decorators.py - JWT authentication decorator
  • services/tenant/app/api/tenant_operations.py - Tenant access verification
  • services/tenant/app/repositories/tenant_member_repository.py - Skip membership queries

Migration from Internal API Keys

Previous System (Deprecated):

# Old approach - REMOVED
headers = {
    "X-Internal-API-Key": "dev-internal-key-change-in-production"
}

New System (Current):

# New approach - JWT service tokens
from shared.auth.jwt_handler import JWTHandler

jwt_handler = JWTHandler(settings.JWT_SECRET_KEY, settings.JWT_ALGORITHM)
service_token = jwt_handler.create_service_token(
    service_name="my-service",
    tenant_id=tenant_id  # Optional tenant context
)

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {service_token}",
    "X-Service": "my-service"
}

Security Benefits

1. Token Expiration - Service tokens expire (1 hour), unlike permanent API keys
2. Signature Verification - JWT signatures prevent token forgery
3. Tenant Context - Service tokens can include tenant scope for proper authorization
4. Audit Trail - All service requests are authenticated and logged
5. No Secret Distribution - Shared JWT secret is managed via environment variables
6. Rotation Ready - JWT secret can be rotated without changing code

Performance Characteristics

• Token Creation: <1ms (in-memory JWT signing)
• Token Validation: <1ms (in-memory JWT verification)
• Cache Enabled: Gateway caches validated tokens for 5 minutes
• No HTTP Calls: Service-to-service auth happens locally

Implementation Examples

Example 1: Demo Session Service Cloning Data

# services/demo_session/app/services/clone_orchestrator.py
service_token = self.jwt_handler.create_service_token(
    service_name="demo-session",
    tenant_id=virtual_tenant_id
)

response = await client.post(
    f"{service.url}/internal/demo/clone",
    params={...},
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {service_token}",
        "X-Service": "demo-session-service"
    }
)

Example 2: Gateway Validating Demo Sessions

# gateway/app/middleware/auth.py
service_token = jwt_handler.create_service_token(service_name="gateway")

response = await client.get(
    f"http://demo-session-service:8000/api/v1/demo/sessions/{session_id}",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {service_token}"}
)

Example 3: Deletion Orchestrator

# services/auth/app/services/deletion_orchestrator.py
service_token = self.jwt_handler.create_service_token(
    service_name="auth",
    tenant_id=tenant_id
)

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {service_token}",
    "X-Service": "auth-service"
}

Security Implementation

Password Hashing

import bcrypt

    """Hash password using bcrypt"""
    salt = bcrypt.gensalt(rounds=12)
    return bcrypt.hashpw(password.encode(), salt).decode()

GDPR Compliance Implementation

Data Export

    user.deletion_reason = reason

    # Revoke all tokens
    await revoke_all_user_tokens(user_id)

    # Keep audit logs for legal retention (30 days)
    # Actual deletion happens after retention period

    await db.commit()

    # Publish deletion event
    await publish_event("user_deleted", {"user_id": user_id})

Security Measures

Token Security

• Short-lived access tokens (15 min)
• Refresh token rotation
• Token revocation on logout
• Secure token storage (httpOnly cookies recommended for web)

Password Security

• bcrypt hashing (work factor 12)
• Password strength requirements
• Password history (prevent reuse)
• Secure password reset flow

Attack Prevention

• Brute force protection (5 attempts → 30 min lockout)
• Rate limiting (via API Gateway)
• SQL injection prevention (parameterized queries)
• XSS prevention (input validation)
• CSRF protection (token-based)

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: Login fails with "Account locked"

• Cause: Too many failed login attempts
• Solution: Wait 30 minutes or contact admin to unlock

Issue: Token refresh fails

• Cause: Refresh token expired or revoked
• Solution: Re-login to get new tokens

Issue: Password reset email not received

• Cause: Email service not configured
• Solution: Check SMTP settings or use admin password reset

Issue: GDPR export takes too long

• Cause: Large amount of user data
• Solution: Implement background job processing
