Description

Pgagne, discovered that with this plugin installed, you can no longer register any system with a normal user (admin or otherwise). I do not believe this is intentional.

This seems to be with how the BasicWithHidden SSO module is being used:

https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_virt_who_configure/blob/29a524a1349b1b0f0b8bb2083cafad1ff323ea75/app/services/sso/basic_with_hidden.rb#L4

Steps to reproduce:

Install foreman with the katello and foreman_virt_who_configure plugins
Try to register any client with the 'admin' user (or any other user)

Results:
Unauthorized: Invalid credentials for request.

Note you can also reproduce by simply running:

curl https://hostname.example.com/rhsm/users/admin/owners  -X GET -u admin:changeme

Thanks for detailed report. Somehow I didn't receive email notification for this issue and found it today. I sent a workaround but the whole authentication hack should be removed in future and service users should be introduced in core. Reported as #19753
