OXID eShop Session Authentication Component

Provides session-based authentication for OXID eShop Symfony controllers. Controllers annotated with #[SessionUser] or #[AdminSessionUser] require an active OXID session cookie before the request is processed.

Note: Recommended for AJAX endpoints only. For stateless API access, use JWT authentication instead.

How it works

The component registers two Symfony kernel event subscribers:

• SessionAuthListener — handles #[SessionUser] — requires an active frontend session (sid cookie)
• AdminSessionAuthListener — handles #[AdminSessionUser] — requires an active admin session (admin_sid cookie) with optional role checks

Usage

Apply the attribute to an action method:

use OxidEsales\SessionAuthComponent\Security\Attribute\SessionUser;
use OxidEsales\SessionAuthComponent\Security\Attribute\AdminSessionUser;

class MyController
{
    #[SessionUser]
    public function ajaxUserAction(): ResponseInterface
    {
        // requires active frontend session (sid cookie)
    }

    #[AdminSessionUser(roles: ['ROLE_ADMIN'])]
    public function ajaxAdminAction(): ResponseInterface
    {
        // requires active admin session (admin_sid cookie) with ROLE_ADMIN
    }
}

Available roles

Role	Description
ROLE_ADMIN	Admin session user
ROLE_ADMIN_MALL	Mall admin (full rights across all subshops)
