Is it possible to access the current session object in a custom login module? Application Servers such as Weblogic and WebSphere allow you to get the HttpServletRequest using a callback and with JBoss/WildFly you can
access it using the PolicyContext class.
Does anyone know how I can access the HttpServletRequest in a custom JAAS Login Module? What I'm trying to do is save the current username and group (role) to my session so that the UI code can see the current username
and more importantly, the group(s) associated with the authenticated user.
Any other methods for communicating the role info just retrieved from LDAP (via the login module) to the UI code is appreciated.
