Expected Behavior

I have configured minio to authenticate using dex (both running on openshift). The minio configuration looks like this:

MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CONFIG_URL=https://dex-lars-sandbox.apps.example.org/.well-known/openid-configuration
MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLIENT_ID=minio
MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLIENT_SECRET=secret
MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_ROLE_POLICY=readwrite

MINIO_BROWSER_REDIRECT_URL=https://minio-console-lars-sandbox.example.org

The dex configuration looks like this:

issuer: https://dex-lars-sandbox.example.org

storage:
  type: memory

web:
  http: "0.0.0.0:5556"

grpc:
  addr: "0.0.0.0:5557"

telemetry:
  http: "0.0.0.0:5558"

oauth2:
  skipApprovalScreen: true

staticClients:
- id: minio
  redirectURIs:
  - 'https://minio-console-lars-sandbox.example.org/oauth_callback'
  - 'https://minio-console-lars-sandbox.example.org'
  name: 'MinIO'
  secret: $MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLIENT_SECRET

connectors:
  - type: openshift
    id: openshift
    name: OpenShift
    config:
      issuer: https://kubernetes.default.svc
      clientID: system:serviceaccount:lars-sandbox:dex
      clientSecret: $OPENSHIFT_CLIENT_SECRET
      redirectURI: https://dex-lars-sandbox.example.org/callback
      groups:
        - system:authenticated

logger:
  level: "debug"
  format: "text"

The value of MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLIENT_SECRET is correct inside the dex container:

$ k exec -it deploy/dex -- env | grep MINIO_IDENTITY
MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLIENT_SECRET=secret

OPENSHIFT_CLIENT_SECRET is also set correctly.

The client secret is presented correctly in the request to /token. Running a packet capture and then examining the request, we see:

POST /token HTTP/1.1
user-agent: Go-http-client/1.1
content-length: 158
authorization: Basic bWluaW86c2VjcmV0
content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
x-forwarded-for: 173.48.196.116
host: dex-lars-sandbox.example.org
x-forwarded-host: dex-lars-sandbox.example.org
x-forwarded-port: 443
x-forwarded-proto: https
forwarded: for=10.30.6.108;host=dex-lars-sandbox.example.org;proto=https
x-forwarded-for: 10.30.6.108

code=ov2a2ptgdftc23h5f7qiflwy4&grant_type=authorization_code&redirect_uri=...

If you decode the authorization header, you will see:

$ echo bWluaW86c2VjcmV0 | base64 -d
minio:secret

The client id is correct, and the client secret is correct.

I expect this to result in a successful login.

Actual Behavior

Dex reports:

Makes sense, because "$MINIO_IDENTITY_OPENID_CLIENT_SECRET" does not equal "secret".

Are you looking for the secretEnv key?
