I'm trying the new request verification process for Slack API on AWS Lambda but I can't produce a valid signature from a request.
The example showed in https://api.slack.com/docs/verifying-requests-from-slack is for a slash command but I'm using for an event subscription, especially, a subscription to a bot event (app_mention). Does the new process support event subscriptions as well?
If so, am I missing something?
Mapping template for Integration request in API Gateway. I can't get a raw request as the slack documentation says but did my best like this:
{
"body" : $input.body,
"headers": {
#foreach($param in $input.params().header.keySet())
"$param": "$util.escapeJavaScript($input.params().header.get($param))" #if($foreach.hasNext),#end
#end
}
}
My function for verification:
def is_valid_request(headers, body):
logger.info(f"DECODED_SECRET: {DECODED_SECRET}")
logger.info(f"DECRYPTED_SECRET: {DECRYPTED_SECRET}")
timestamp = headers.get(REQ_KEYS['timestamp'])
logger.info(f"timestamp: {timestamp}")
encoded_body = urlencode(body)
logger.info(f"encoded_body: {encoded_body}")
base_str = f"{SLACK_API_VER}:{timestamp}:{encoded_body}"
logger.info(f"base_str: {base_str}")
base_b = bytes(base_str, 'utf-8')
dgst_str = hmac.new(DECRYPTED_SECRET, base_b, digestmod=sha256).hexdigest()
sig_str = f"{SLACK_API_VER}={dgst_str}"
logger.info(f"signature: {sig_str}")
req_sig = headers.get(REQ_KEYS['sig'])
logger.info(f"req_sig: {req_sig}")
logger.info(f"comparing: {hmac.compare_digest(sig_str, req_sig)}")
return hmac.compare_digest(sig_str, req_sig)
Lambda Log in CloudWatch. I can't show the values for security reasons but it seems like each variable/constant has a reasonable value:
DECODED_SECRET: ...
DECRYPTED_SECRET: ...
timestamp: 1532011621
encoded_body: ...
base_str: v0:1532011621:token= ... &team_id= ... &api_app_id= ...
signature: v0=3 ...
req_sig: v0=1 ...
comparing: False
signature
should match with req_sig
but it doesn't. I guess there is something wrong with base_str = f"{SLACK_API_VER}:{timestamp}:{encoded_body}"
. I mean, the concatination or urlencoding of the request body, but I'm not sure. Thank you in advance!
