I've used MongoDB before, but never with ASP.NET MVC.

Currently, I'm stuck trying to implement authentication for system which is going to use exclusively MongoDB (so, I don't have the option of leaving the users table to a SQL database).

Now, I figured a solution would be implementing my own Membership provider. However, that requires quite a lot of code. And, since it is related to security, it is not wise to reivent the wheel if I can avoid it.

Coming from Rails, it would be rather simple to just add something like Devise, set it up to use MongoDB and call it a day. I couldn't find anything similar for ASP.NET MVC - I am not sure if it is an uncommon use case, or if my Google-Fu is inadequate.

I don't need anything fancy -just the ability to create users, check their credentials and protect controllers from being called from unauthenticated users. Are there any packages that could solve my problem?

There are several forks of it, most of them with more recent commits. Have you used any of them?

I would suggest to use https://extmongomembership.codeplex.com/ as this is newer provider that was presented in ASP.NET MVC4. And it contin eve more features (for instance permissions system if need)
