Below is a more comprehensive Delphi example that demonstrates custom endpoints, challenge policies, database-backed credential storage, FIDO Metadata validation, and cross-origin iframe support. The code highlights advanced event handling to enforce security policies.
sgcWebSockets WebAuthn Server Example
procedure TForm1.ConfigureWebAuthn;

// Component setup
FWebAuthn := TsgcWSServer_API_WebAuthn.Create(nil);
FWebAuthn.Server := FHTTPServer;
FWebAuthn.Enabled := True;

FWebAuthn.EndpointsOptions.RegistrationOptions.Endpoint := '/reg/options';
FWebAuthn.EndpointsOptions.RegistrationVerify.Endpoint := '/reg/verify';
// Relying-party definition
with FWebAuthn.WebAuthnOptions do

Algorithms := [waunalgES256, waunalgRS256];

Timeout := 60000;
// Challenge: 32 CSPRNG-random bytes, hex-encoded, generated internally by

// OnWebAuthnRegistrationOptionsResponse / OnWebAuthnAuthenticationOptionsResponse.
// Metadata Service configuration
MDS.Enabled := True;
MDS.MDS_FileName := 'mds.json';
MDS.RootCert_FileName := 'root.pem';
end;
// Hook events
FWebAuthn.OnWebAuthnRegistrationOptionsRequest := AuthnRegOptionsRequest;

Event Implementations
procedure TForm1.AuthnRegOptionsRequest(Sender: TObject;
const Request: TsgcWebAuthn_RegistrationOptions_Request; var Accept: Boolean);
begin
// Verify user is eligible for registration
Accept := not UserExists(Request.Username);
end;
procedure TForm1.AuthnRegOptionsResponse(Sender: TObject;
const Request: TsgcWebAuthn_RegistrationOptions_Request;
const Response: TsgcWebAuthn_RegistrationOptions_Response);
begin
// Optionally assign a user handle (binary identifier)
Response.User.Id := HexToBin(UserGUIDToHex(GenerateGUID));
Response.AuthenticatorSelection.AuthenticatorAttachment := 'platform';
end;
procedure TForm1.AuthnRegVerify(Sender: TObject;
const Request: TsgcWebAuthn_RegistrationVerify_Request;
const Validate: TsgcWebAuthnValidateAttestationStatement; var Accept: Boolean);
begin
// Perform extra attestation validation against MDS entries
Accept := ValidateAttestationWithMDS(Validate);
end;
procedure TForm1.AuthnRegSuccess(Sender: TObject;
const Registration: TsgcWebAuthn_Registration;
const CredentialRecord: TsgcWebAuthn_CredentialRecord; var Accept: Boolean);
begin
// Persist credential details in database
SaveCredentialToDB(
CredentialRecord.Username,
CredentialRecord.CredentialId,
CredentialRecord.PublicKey,
CredentialRecord.SignCount,
CredentialRecord.UserId
);
Accept := True;
end;
procedure TForm1.AuthnOptionsRequest(Sender: TObject;
const Request: TsgcWebAuthn_AuthenticationOptions_Request;
var CredentialRecords: TsgcWebAuthn_CredentialRecords; var Accept: Boolean);
begin
// Retrieve all credential records for user
CredentialRecords := LoadCredentialRecordsFromDB(Request.Username);
Accept := True;
end;
procedure TForm1.AuthnSuccess(Sender: TObject;
const Request: TsgcWebAuthn_AuthenticationVerify_Request;
const Authentication: TsgcWebAuthn_Authentication; var Accept: Boolean);
var
StoredCounter: Cardinal;
begin
// Ensure sign counter increases
StoredCounter := GetSignCounterFromDB(Authentication.Credential.CredentialRecord.CredentialId);
Accept := Authentication.Credential.CredentialRecord.SignCount > StoredCounter;
if Accept then
begin
UpdateSignCounterInDB(Authentication.Credential.CredentialRecord.CredentialId,
Authentication.Credential.CredentialRecord.SignCount);
IssueSessionToken(Authentication.Credential.CredentialRecord.Username);
end;

Key Highlights
- Losowość challenge – Każdy challenge jest generowany wewnętrznie przez serwer jako 32 kryptograficznie losowe bajty, zakodowane szesnastkowo, co już skutecznie chroni przed atakami typu replay bez dodatkowej konfiguracji.
- Custom User Handles – Assigning a unique binary user handle allows the authenticator to store a privacy-preserving identifier independent of usernames.
- Metadata-Based Attestation Validation – The
ValidateAttestationWithMDSroutine cross-checks authenticator model, status reports, and revocation lists, ensuring only trusted devices are registered. - Sign Counter Enforcement –
AuthnSuccessrejects responses that do not strictly increment the authenticator's counter, detecting cloned credentials. - Database Integration – Credential data, sign counters, and session tokens are stored and updated via external persistence functions, demonstrating how to integrate the component with a real-world backend.
- Cross-Origin Iframe Support – Enabled through
AllowCrossOriginsand configuredTopOrigins, allowing WebAuthn flows initiated from embedded frames (e.g., login widget on different domain). - Attestation Policy – Direct attestation coupled with MDS ensures only approved authenticators can register, useful for enterprise compliance scenarios.
- Transport Selection – Though not shown, events can constrain acceptable transports (e.g.,
USB,NFC,BLE) to tailor which types of authenticators are permitted.
