Remembering and storing passwords can be such a hassle for our users — imagine if logging in was overall easier for everyone. That's where WebAuthn, or Web Authentication API, comes in. WebAuthn aims to offer a future without passwords.

In this article, we'll cover what makes WebAuthn work, breaking down how it uses public key cryptography to keep things secure. We'll also guide you through integrating WebAuthn for a simple web app to learn how to use the API practically.

Like any solution, WebAuthn has its good and not-so-great sides. We'll review its advantages and disadvantages so you can determine if it's the best fit for your authentication needs. Come along as we attempt to say goodbye to password headaches and explore the promise of a seamless login experience with WebAuthn.

Things to know before learning about WebAuthn

Before we walk through implementing passwordless logins with WebAuthn, it's essential that you have the following prerequisites in place:

  • Node.js installed on your machine
  • An Android or iOS device that is compatible with WebAuthn for testing purposes
  • Basic familiarity with Node.js and Express.js
  • MongoDB database to store user credentials and passkeys

If you’re already familiar with what WebAuthn is and how it works, feel free to skip to the implementation section. If you feel like you need a refresher, then the below should help set the foundation straight.

What is WebAuthn?

WebAuthn is a web standard initiated out of the need for secure and passwordless authentication in web applications to tackle the major shortcomings of using passwords.

The project was published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in collaboration with the FIDO (Fast Identity Online) with the aim of creating a standardized interface that works across devices and operating systems for authenticating users.

On a practical level, WebAuthn is made up of three essential components: the relying party, the WebAuthn client, and the authenticator.

The relying party is the online service or application that requests authentication for the user.

The WebAuthn client acts as an intermediary between the user and the relying party — it’s embedded in any compatible web browser or mobile app that supports WebAuthn.

The authenticator is the device or method used to verify the user's identity, such as a fingerprint scanner, a facial recognition system, or a hardware security key.

How does WebAuthn work?

When registering for an account on a website supporting WebAuthn, you start a signup process that involves using an authenticator such as your fingerprint scanner on your phone. This results in generating a public key stored in the relying party’s database and a private key safely stored on your device via a secure hardware layer.

Since the website won’t request a password when attempting to log in. What really happens is that after initiating the log in a challenge is sent to your device. This challenge usually contains information like the website address to confirm that you are logging in from the website the relying party expects.

After receiving the challenge from the website, your device uses your private key to create a signed response. This response shows that you own the corresponding public key stored by the website without disclosing the private key itself.

The relying party validates the stored public key upon receiving your signed response. If the signature aligns, the website can ascertain that you are the real user and grants you access. No passwords were exchanged, and your private key remained securely on your device.

How to implement passwordless authentication with WebAuthn

Now that we've covered the fundamental concepts of WebAuthn, we can see how all this plays out in practice. The application we'll be building will be a simple Express.js app with a couple of API endpoints to handle the registration and login, a basic HTML page containing the login and registration form.

Project Setup

First, you'll need to clone the project from GitHub, which contains the starter code so we don't have much scaffolding to do.

In your terminal, enter the commands below:

git clone https://github.com/josephden16/webauthn-demo.git
Copy after login

git checkout start-here # note: make sure you're on the starter branch

If you want to view the final solution, check into the final-solution or main branch.

Next, install the project dependencies:

npm install
Copy after login

Next, create a new file, .env, at the project's root. Copy the contents of the .env.sample into it, and supply the appropriate values:

# .env PORT=8000 MONGODB_URL=
Copy after login

After following these steps, the project should run without throwing errors, but to confirm, enter the command below to start the development server:

npm run dev
Copy after login

With that, we've set up the project. In the next section, we'll add the login and registration form.

Creating the login and registration form

The next step in our process is creating a single form that can handle registration and logging in. To do this, we must create a new directory in our codebase called public. Inside this directory, we will create a new file called index.html. This file will contain the necessary code to build the form we need.

Inside the index.html file, add the following code:

     WebAuthn Demo       

WebAuthn Demo

Copy after login

So, we've just added a simple login and registration form for users to sign in with WebAuthn. Also, if you check theelement, we've included the link to the Inter font using Google Fonts, Tailwind CSS for styling, and the SimpleWebAuthn browser package.

SimpleWebAuthn is an easy-to-use library for integrating WebAuthn into your web applications, as the name suggests. It offers a client and server library to reduce the hassle of implementing Webauthn in your projects.

When you visit http://localhost:8010, the port will be what you're using, you should see a form like the one below:Implementing WebAuthn for passwordless logins

Let's create a script.js file that'll store all the code for handling form submissions and interacting with the browser's Web Authentication API for registration and authentication. Users must register on a website before logging in, so we must implement the registration functionality first.

Head to the script.js file and include the following code:

const { startRegistration, browserSupportsWebAuthn } = SimpleWebAuthnBrowser; document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () { const usernameInput = document.getElementById("username"); const registerBtn = document.getElementById("registerBtn"); const loginBtn = document.getElementById("loginBtn"); const errorDiv = document.getElementById("error"); const loginForm = document.getElementById("loginForm"); const welcomeMessage = document.getElementById("welcomeMessage"); const usernameDisplay = document.getElementById("usernameDisplay"); registerBtn.addEventListener("click", handleRegister); loginBtn.addEventListener("click", handleLogin); });
Copy after login

At the start of the code above, we import the necessary functions to work with WebAuthn. The document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () { ... }) part ensures that the code inside the curly braces ({...}) executes after the web page is loaded.

It is important to avoid errors that might occur if you try to access elements that haven't been loaded yet.

Within the DOMContentLoaded event handler, we're initializing variables to store specific HTML elements we'll be working with and event listeners for the login and registration buttons.

Next, let's add the handleRegister() function. Inside the DOMContentLoaded event handler, add the code below:

async function handleRegister(evt) { errorDiv.textContent = ""; errorDiv.style.display = "none"; const userName = usernameInput.value; if (!browserSupportsWebAuthn()) { return alert("This browser does not support WebAuthn"); } const resp = await fetch(`/api/register/start?username=${userName}`, { credentials: "include" }); const registrationOptions = await resp.json(); let authResponse; try { authResponse = await startRegistration(registrationOptions); } catch (error) { if (error.name === "InvalidStateError") { errorDiv.textContent = "Error: Authenticator was probably already registered by user"; } else { errorDiv.textContent = error.message; } } if (!authResponse) { errorDiv.textContent = "Failed to connect with your device"; return; } const verificationResp = await fetch( `/api/register/verify?username=${userName}`, { credentials: "include", method: "POST", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", }, body: JSON.stringify(authResponse), } ); if (!verificationResp.ok) { errorDiv.textContent = "Oh no, something went wrong!"; return; } const verificationJSON = await verificationResp.json(); if (verificationJSON && verificationJSON.verified) { alert("Registration successful! You can now login"); } else { errorDiv.textContent = "Oh no, something went wrong!"; } }
Copy after login

The handleRegister() function initiates the registration process by retrieving the username entered by the user from an input field. If the browser supports WebAuthn, it sends a request to the /api/register/start endpoint to initiate the registration process.

Once the registration options are retrieved, the startRegistration() method initiates the registration process with the received options. If the registration process is successful, it sends a verification request to another API endpoint /api/register/verify with the obtained authentication response and alerts the user that the registration was successful.

Since we haven't built the API endpoint for handling user registration yet, it won't function as expected, so let's head back to the codebase and create it.

Building the registration API endpoints

To finish the registration functionality, we'll need two API endpoints: one for generating the registration options that'll be passed to the authenticator and the other for verifying the response from the authenticator. Then, we'll store the credential data from the authenticator and user data in the database.

Let's start by creating the MongoDB database models to store user data and passkey. At the project's root, create a new folder called models and within that same folder, create two new files: User.js for the user data and PassKey.js for the passkey.

In the User.js file, add the following code:

import mongoose from "mongoose"; const UserSchema = new mongoose.Schema( { username: { type: String, unique: true, required: true, }, authenticators: [], }, { timestamps: true } ); const User = mongoose.model("User", UserSchema); export default User;
Copy after login

We're defining a simple schema for the user model that'll store the data of registered users. Next, in the PassKey.js file, add the following code:

import mongoose from "mongoose"; const PassKeySchema = new mongoose.Schema( { user: { type: mongoose.Schema.ObjectId, ref: "User", required: true, }, webAuthnUserID: { type: String, required: true, }, credentialID: { type: String, required: true, }, publicKey: { type: String, required: true, }, counter: { type: Number, required: true, }, deviceType: { type: String, enum: ["singleDevice", "multiDevice"], required: true, }, backedUp: { type: Boolean, required: true, }, authenticators: [], transports: [], }, { timestamps: true } ); const PassKey = mongoose.model("PassKey", PassKeySchema); export default PassKey;
Copy after login

We have created a schema for the PassKey model that stores all the necessary data of the authenticator after a successful registration. This schema will be used to identify the authenticator for all future authentications.

Having defined our data models, we can now set up the registration API endpoints. Within the root of the project, create two new folders: routes and controllers. Within each of the newly created folders, add a file named index.js. Within the routes/index.js file, add the code below:

import express from "express"; import { generateRegistrationOptionsCtrl, verifyRegistrationCtrl, } from "../controllers/index.js"; const router = express.Router(); router.get("/register/start", generateRegistrationOptionsCtrl); router.post("/register/verify", verifyRegistrationCtrl); export default router;
Copy after login

We're defining the routes we used earlier for user registration using Express.js. It imports two controller functions for generating registration options and verifying the response from the startRegistration() method that'll be called in the browser.

Let's start by adding the generateRegistrationOptionsCtrl() controller to generate the registration options. In the controllers/index.js file, add the following code:

// Import necessary modules and functions import { generateRegistrationOptions, verifyRegistrationResponse, } from "@simplewebauthn/server"; import { bufferToBase64URLString, base64URLStringToBuffer, } from "@simplewebauthn/browser"; import { v4 } from "uuid"; import User from "../models/User.js"; import PassKey from "../models/PassKey.js"; // Human-readable title for your website const relyingPartyName = "WebAuthn Demo"; // A unique identifier for your website const relyingPartyID = "localhost"; // The URL at which registrations and authentications should occur const origin = `http://${relyingPartyID}`; // Controller function to generate registration options export const generateRegistrationOptionsCtrl = async (req, res) => { const { username } = req.query; const user = await User.findOne({ username }); let userAuthenticators = []; // Retrieve authenticators used by the user before, if any if (user) { userAuthenticators = [...user.authenticators]; } // Generate a unique ID for the current user session let currentUserId; if (!req.session.currentUserId) { currentUserId = v4(); req.session.currentUserId = currentUserId; } else { currentUserId = req.session.currentUserId; } // Generate registration options const options = await generateRegistrationOptions({ rpName: relyingPartyName, rpID: relyingPartyID, userID: currentUserId, userName: username, timeout: 60000, attestationType: "none", // Don't prompt users for additional information excludeCredentials: userAuthenticators.map((authenticator) => ({ id: authenticator.credentialID, type: "public-key", transports: authenticator.transports, })), supportedAlgorithmIDs: [-7, -257], authenticatorSelection: { residentKey: "preferred", userVerification: "preferred", }, }); // Save the challenge to the session req.session.challenge = options.challenge; res.send(options); };
Copy after login

First, we import the necessary functions and modules from libraries like @simplewebauthn/server and uuid. These help us handle the authentication process smoothly.

Next, we define some constants. relyingPartyName is a friendly name for our website. In this case, it's set to "WebAuthn Demo." relyingPartyID is a unique identifier for our website. Here, it's set to "localhost". Then, we construct the origin variable, the URL where registrations and authentications will happen. In this case, it's constructed using the relying party ID.

Moving on to the main part of the code, we have the controller generateRegistrationOptionsCtrl(). It's responsible for generating user registration options.

Inside this function, we first extract the username from the request. Then, we try to find the user in our database using this username. If we find the user, we retrieve the authenticators they've used before. Otherwise, we initialize an empty array for user authenticators.

Next, we generate a unique ID for the current user session. If there's no ID stored in the session yet, we generate a new one using the v4 function from the uuid library and store it in the session. Otherwise, we retrieve the ID from the session.

Then, we use the generateRegistrationOptions() function to create user registration options. After generating these options, we save the challenge to the session and send the options back as a response.

Next, we'll need to add the verifyRegistrationCtrl() controller to handle verifying the response sent from the browser after the user has initiated the registration:

// Controller function to verify registration export const verifyRegistrationCtrl = async (req, res) => { const body = req.body; const { username } = req.query; const user = await User.findOne({ username }); const expectedChallenge = req.session.challenge; // Check if the expected challenge exists if (!expectedChallenge) { return res.status(400).send({ error: "Failed: No challenge found" }); } let verification; try { const verificationOptions = { response: body, expectedChallenge: `${expectedChallenge}`, expectedOrigin: origin, expectedRPID: relyingPartyID, requireUserVerification: false, }; verification = await verifyRegistrationResponse(verificationOptions); } catch (error) { console.error(error); return res.status(400).send({ error: error.message }); } const { verified, registrationInfo } = verification; // If registration is verified, update user data if (verified && registrationInfo) { const { credentialPublicKey, credentialID, counter, credentialBackedUp, credentialDeviceType, } = registrationInfo; const credId = bufferToBase64URLString(credentialID); const credPublicKey = bufferToBase64URLString(credentialPublicKey); const newDevice = { credentialPublicKey: credPublicKey, credentialID: credId, counter, transports: body.response.transports, }; // Check if the device already exists for the user const existingDevice = user?.authenticators.find( (authenticator) => authenticator.credentialID === credId ); if (!existingDevice && user) { // Add the new device to the user's list of devices await User.updateOne( { _id: user._id }, { $push: { authenticators: newDevice } } ); await PassKey.create({ counter, credentialID: credId, user: user._id, webAuthnUserID: req.session.currentUserId, publicKey: credPublicKey, backedUp: credentialBackedUp, deviceType: credentialDeviceType, transports: body.response.transports, authenticators: [newDevice], }); } else { const newUser = await User.create({ username, authenticators: [newDevice], }); await PassKey.create({ counter, credentialID: credId, user: newUser._id, webAuthnUserID: req.session.currentUserId, publicKey: credPublicKey, backedUp: credentialBackedUp, deviceType: credentialDeviceType, transports: body.response.transports, authenticators: [newDevice], }); } } // Clear the challenge from the session req.session.challenge = undefined; res.send({ verified }); };
Copy after login

The verifyRegistrationCtrl() controller searches for a user in the database based on the provided username. If found, it retrieves the expected challenge from the session data. If there's no expected challenge, the function returns an error. It then sets up verification options and calls a function named verifyRegistrationResponse.

If an error occurs, it logs the error and sends a response with the error message. If the registration is successfully verified, the function updates the user's data with the information provided in the registration response. It adds the new device to the user's list of devices if it does not exist.

Finally, the challenge is cleared from the session, and a response indicates whether the registration was successfully verified.

Before we head back to the browser to test what we've done so far, return to the app.js file and add the following code to register the routes:

import router from "./routes/index.js"; // place this at the start of the file app.use("/api", router); // place this before the call to `app.listen()`
Copy after login

Now that we've assembled all the pieces for the registration functionality, we can return to the browser to test it out.

When you enter a username and click the "register" button, you should see a prompt similar to the one shown below:

Implementing WebAuthn for passwordless loginsTo create a new passkey, you can now scan the QR code with your Android or iOS device. Upon successfully creating the passkey, a response is sent from the startRegistration() method to the /register/verify endpoint. Still, you'll notice it fails because of the error sent from the API:

{ "error": "Unexpected registration response origin \"http://localhost:8030\", expected \"http://localhost\"" }
Copy after login

Why this is happening is because the origin that the verifyRegistrationResponse() method expected, which is http://localhost, is different from http://localhost:8010, was sent.

So, you might wonder why we can't just change it to http://localhost:8010. That’s because when we defined the origin in the controllers/index.js file, the relyingPartyID was set to "localhost", and we can't explicitly specify the port for the relying party ID.

An approach to get around this issue is to use a web tunneling service like tunnelmole or ngrok to expose our local server to the internet with a publicly accessible URL so we don't have to specify the port when defining the relyingPartyID.

Exposing your local server to the internet

Let's quickly set up tunnelmole to share the server on our local machine to a live URL.

First, let's install tunnelmole by entering the command below in your terminal:

sudo npm install -g tunnelmole
Copy after login

Next, enter the command below to make the server running locally available on the internet:

tmole 
Copy after login

You should see an output like this from your terminal if it was successful:Implementing WebAuthn for passwordless loginsYou can now use the tunnelmole URL as the origin:

const relyingPartyID = "randomstring.tunnelmole.net"; // use output from your terminal const origin = `https://${relyingPartyID}`; // webauthn only works with https
Copy after login

Everything should work as expected, so head back to your browser to start the registration process. Once you're done, an alert should pop up informing you that the registration was successful and that you can now log in:Implementing WebAuthn for passwordless logins

We've successfully set up the user registration feature. The only thing left to do is implement the logging-in functionality.

Building the login functionality

The login process will follow a similar flow to the registration process. First, we’ll request authentication options from the server to be passed to the authenticator on your device.

Afterward, a request will be sent to the server to verify the authenticator's response. If all the criteria are met, the user can log in successfully.

Head back to the public/script.js file, and include the function to handle when the "login" button is clicked:

async function handleLogin(evt) { errorDiv.textContent = ""; errorDiv.style.display = "none"; const userName = usernameInput.value; if (!browserSupportsWebAuthn()) { return alert("This browser does not support WebAuthn"); } const resp = await fetch(`/api/login/start?username=${userName}`, { credentials: "include", headers: { "ngrok-skip-browser-warning": "69420", }, }); if (!resp.ok) { const error = (await resp.json()).error; errorDiv.textContent = error; errorDiv.style.display = "block"; return; } let asseResp; try { asseResp = await startAuthentication(await resp.json()); } catch (error) { errorDiv.textContent = error.message; errorDiv.style.display = "block"; } if (!asseResp) { errorDiv.textContent = "Failed to connect with your device"; errorDiv.style.display = "block"; return; } const verificationResp = await fetch( `/api/login/verify?username=${userName}`, { credentials: "include", method: "POST", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", "ngrok-skip-browser-warning": "69420", }, body: JSON.stringify(asseResp), } ); const verificationJSON = await verificationResp.json(); if (verificationJSON && verificationJSON.verified) { const userName = verificationJSON.username; // Hide login form and show welcome message loginForm.style.display = "none"; welcomeMessage.style.display = "block"; usernameDisplay.textContent = userName; } else { errorDiv.textContent = "Oh no, something went wrong!"; errorDiv.style.display = "block"; } }
Copy after login

The function starts by clearing error messages and retrieving the user's username from the form. It checks if the browser supports WebAuthn; if it does, it sends a request to the server to initiate the login process.

If the response from the server is successful, it attempts to authenticate the user. Upon successful authentication, it hides the login form and displays a welcome message with the user's name. Otherwise, it displays an error message to the user.

Next, head back to the routes/index.js file and add the routes for logging in:

router.get("/login/start", generateAuthenticationOptionsCtrl); router.post("/login/verify", verifyAuthenticationCtrl);
Copy after login

Don't forget to update the imports, as you're including the code above. Let's continue by adding the code to generate the authentication options. Go to the controllers/index.js file and add the following code:

// Controller function to generate authentication options export const generateAuthenticationOptionsCtrl = async (req, res) => { const { username } = req.query; const user = await User.findOne({ username }); if (!user) { return res .status(404) .send({ error: "User with this username does not exist" }); } const options = await generateAuthenticationOptions({ rpID: relyingPartyID, timeout: 60000, allowCredentials: user.authenticators.map((authenticator) => ({ id: base64URLStringToBuffer(authenticator.credentialID), transports: authenticator.transports, type: "public-key", })), userVerification: "preferred", }); req.session.challenge = options.challenge; res.send(options); };
Copy after login

The generateAuthenticationOptionsCtrl() controller starts by extracting the username from the request query and searching for the user in the database. If found, it proceeds to generate authentication options crucial for the process.

These options include the relying party ID (rpID), timeout, allowed credentials derived from stored authenticators, and user verification option set to preferred. Then, it stores the challenge from the options in the session for authentication verification and sends them as a response to the browser.

Let's add the controller for verifying the authenticator's response for the final part of the auth flow:

// Controller function to verify authentication export const verifyAuthenticationCtrl = async (req, res) => { const body = req.body; const { username } = req.query; const user = await User.findOne({ username }); if (!user) { return res .status(404) .send({ error: "User with this username does not exist" }); } const passKey = await PassKey.findOne({ user: user._id, credentialID: body.id, }); if (!passKey) { return res .status(400) .send({ error: "Could not find passkey for this user" }); } const expectedChallenge = req.session.challenge; let dbAuthenticator; // Check if the authenticator exists in the user's data for (const authenticator of user.authenticators) { if (authenticator.credentialID === body.id) { dbAuthenticator = authenticator; dbAuthenticator.credentialPublicKey = base64URLStringToBuffer( authenticator.credentialPublicKey ); break; } } // If the authenticator is not found, return an error if (!dbAuthenticator) { return res.status(400).send({ error: "This authenticator is not registered with this site", }); } let verification; try { const verificationOptions = { response: body, expectedChallenge: `${expectedChallenge}`, expectedOrigin: origin, expectedRPID: relyingPartyID, authenticator: dbAuthenticator, requireUserVerification: false, }; verification = await verifyAuthenticationResponse(verificationOptions); } catch (error) { console.error(error); return res.status(400).send({ error: error.message }); } const { verified, authenticationInfo } = verification; if (verified) { // Update the authenticator's counter in the DB to the newest count in the authentication dbAuthenticator.counter = authenticationInfo.newCounter; const filter = { username }; const update = { $set: { "authenticators.$[element].counter": authenticationInfo.newCounter, }, }; const options = { arrayFilters: [{ "element.credentialID": dbAuthenticator.credentialID }], }; await User.updateOne(filter, update, options); } // Clear the challenge from the session req.session.challenge = undefined; res.send({ verified, username: user.username }); };
Copy after login

The verifyAuthenticationCtrl() controller first extracts data from the request body and query, including the username and authentication details. It then searches for the user in the database. If not found, it returns a 404 error.

Assuming the user exists, it proceeds to find the passkey associated with the user and provides authentication details. If no passkey is found, it returns a 400 error.

Then, the expected challenge value is retrieved from the session data and iterates over the user's authenticators to find a match.

After attempting the verification, if an error occurs, the error is logged to the console and a 400 error is returned. If the verification is successful, the authenticator's counter is updated in the database, and the challenge is cleared from the session. Finally, the response includes the verification status and the username.

Return to your browser to ensure that everything functions as expected. Below is a GIF demonstrating the entire authentication process:Implementing WebAuthn for passwordless logins

We've successfully implemented the WebAuthn authentication, providing our users with a fast, secure, and password-less way to authenticate themselves. With biometric information or physical security keys, users can access their accounts securely.

Benefits and limitations of WebAuthn

While WebAuthn presents a solution to modern authentication challenges, it's essential to understand its strengths and weaknesses. Below, we highlight the key advantages and potential drawbacks of adopting WebAuthn in your authentication strategy.

Benefits of WebAuthn

WebAuthn offers a higher security level than traditional password-based authentication methods because of how it leverages public key cryptography to mitigate the risks associated with password breaches and phishing attacks.
