Passkeys/WebAuthn Authentication Plugin for CakePHP 4/5?

1

Hi CakePHP community,

I’m currently looking to integrate Passkeys/WebAuthn authentication into a CakePHP 4 or 5 application. Before starting from scratch, I wanted to ask if there’s already an existing CakePHP plugin that supports Passkeys/WebAuthn.

If such a plugin exists, could someone kindly point me to where I can find it?

Additionally, is there any plan to include Passkeys/WebAuthn support in the CakePHP core in the near future?

If not, has anyone successfully integrated Passkeys/WebAuthn in their CakePHP application using a composer library or any other approach? I’d greatly appreciate any recommendations or guidance on which libraries to use.

Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Profdanibest

Mark Story had a workshop about this topic.
See GitHub - markstory/cakephp-webauthn-example: An example application using U2F authentication (Passkeys)
and https://www.youtube.com/live/ac9pEtgvmYY?si=gbjmRgjPZG-FyyIx&t=18520

I’ve written my own CakePHP 4 plugin using the library from GitHub - lbuchs/WebAuthn: A simple PHP WebAuthn (FIDO2/Passkey) server library. If you’re interested, I’d be happy to publish the plugin on GitHub.

Feel free to publish your plugin - and once it is all released and tested, also please add it to the awesome list.
