These tests didn't configure ldap settings correctly and as a result,
the user involved in these tests wasn't actually hamlet@zulip.com, but a
new, malformed user with email "hamlet" that was being created by the
ldap auto-registration codepath. This wasn't caught because the codepath
didn't validate the email address and thus created such a malformed user
silently.
Fixes#17277.
The main limitation of this implementation is that the sync happens if
the user authing already exists. This means that a new user going
through the sign up flow will not have their custom fields synced upon
finishing it. The fields will get synced on their consecutive log in via
SAML in the future. This can be addressed in the future by moving the
syncing code further down the codepaths to login_or_register_remote_user
and plumbing the data through to the user creation process.
We detail that limitation in the documentation.
The previous hashers mirrored the ones used in production, but that was
non-ideal because those are slow. Replacing them with quick hashers is a
performance improvement for those tests.
Raising jsonableError in the authentication form was non-ideal because
it took the user to an ugly page with the returned json.
We also add logging of this rare occurence of the scenario being
handled here.
user_profile.check_password(password) in authenticate of
EmailAuthBackend can raise PasswordTooWeakError; this happens when the
user's password is weaker than the current required policies and needs
to be rehashed (E.g. because, as in Django 3.2, the minimum salt
entropy increased).
This is a very rare case, but still needs a good user-facing error
message. We raise a json error to handle this with a user-facing error
message.
See this comment by Mateusz Mandera for a detailed explanation
about this case along with a traceback it generates.

This allows access to be more configurable than just setting one
attribute. This can be configured by setting the setting
AUTH_LDAP_ADVANCED_REALM_ACCESS_CONTROL.
This adds the is_user_active with the appropriate code for setting the
value correctly in the future. In the following commit a migration to
backfill the value for existing Subscriptions will be added.
To ensure correct user_profile.is_active handling also in tests, we
replace all direct .is_active mutation with calls to appropriate
functions.
This adds an option for restricting a ldap user
to only be allowed to login into certain realms.
This is done by configuring an attribute mapping of "org_membership"
to an ldap attribute that will contain the list of subdomains the ldap
user is allowed to access. This is analogous to how it's done in SAML.

The name used to be included in the id_token, but this seems to have
been changed by Apple and now it's sent in the `user` request param.
https://github.com/python-social-auth/social-core/pull/483 is the
upstream PR for this - but upstream is currently unmaintained, so we
have to monkey patch.
We also alter the tests to reflect this situation. Tests no longer put
the name in the id_token, but rather in the `user` request param in the
browser flow, just like it happens in reality.
An adaptation has to be made in the native flow - since the name won't
be included by Apple in the id_token anymore, the app, when POSTing
to the /complete/apple/ endpoint,
can (and should for better user experience)
add the `user` param formatted as json of
{"email": "hamlet@zulip.com", "name": {"firstName": "Full", "lastName": "Name"}}
dict. This is also reflected by the change in the
native flow tests.
A later commit alters `authenticate` of EmailAuthBackend to
add a store `needs_to_change_password` variable to session
which is useful to insist users on changing their weak password.
The tests start failing with that change because client.login()
runs `authenticate` without a `request` object. So, this commit
sends a request object with `request.session=self.client.session`
to self.client.login() in tests wherever needed.
We previously used to to redirect to config error page with
a different URL. This commit renders config error in the same
URL where configuration error is encountered. This way when
conifguration error is fixed the user can refresh to continue
normally or go back to login page from the link provided to
choose any other backend auth.
Also moved those URLs to dev_urls.py so that they can be easily
accessed to work on styling etc.
In tests, removed some of the asserts checking status code to be 200
as the function `assert_in_success_response` does that check.
Replace default root logger with zulip.auth.apple for apple auth
in file zproject/backends.py and update the test cases
accordingly in file zerver/tests/test_auth_backends.py
Replaced mock.patch with assertLogs for testing log outputs
in file test_auth_backends.py.
This change requires adjusting
test_log_into_subdomain_when_email_is_none to use an explicit token
since that appears in the log output.
There are three functional side effects:
• Correct an insignificant but mathematically offensive bias toward
repeated characters in generate_api_key introduced in commit
47b4283c4b4c70ecde4d3c8de871c90ee2506d87; its entropy is increased
from 190.52864 bits to 190.53428 bits.
• Use the base32 alphabet in confirmation.models.generate_key; its
entropy is reduced from 124.07820 bits to the documented 120 bits, but
now it uses 1 syscall instead of 24.
• Use the base32 alphabet in get_bigbluebutton_url; its entropy is
reduced from 51.69925 bits to 50 bits, but now it uses 1 syscall
instead of 10.
(The base32 alphabet is A-Z 2-7. We could probably replace all of
these with plain secrets.token_urlsafe, since I expect most callers
can handle the full urlsafe_b64 alphabet A-Z a-z 0-9 - _ without
problems.)

Our intent throughout the codebase is to treat email
case-insensitively.
The only codepath affected by this bug is remote_user_sso, as that's the
only one that currently passes potentially both a user_profile and
ExternalAuthDataDict when creating the ExternalAuthResult. That's why we
add a test specifically for that codepath.
The apple developer webapp consistently refers this App ID. So,
this clears any confusion that can occur.
Since python social auth only requires us to include App ID in
_AUDIENCE(a list), we do that in computed settings making it easier for
server admin and we make it much clear by having it set to
APP_ID instead of BUNDLE_ID.
Uses git release as this version 3.4.0 is not released to pypi.
This is required for removing some overriden functions of
apple auth backend class AppleAuthBackend.
With the update we also make following changes:
* Fix full name being populated as "None None".
c5c74f27dd that's included in update assigns first_name and last_name
to None when no name is provided by apple. Due to this our
code is filling return_data['full_name'] to 'None None'.
This commit fixes it by making first and last name strings empty.
* Remove decode_id_token override.
Python social auth merged the PR we sent including the changes
we made to decode_id_token function. So, now there is no
necessity for the override.
* Add _AUDIENCE setting in computed_settings.py.
`decode_id_token` is dependent on this setting.
In particular importing gitter data leads to having accounts with these
noreply github emails. We generally only want users to have emails that
we can actually send messages to, so we'll keep the old behavior of
disallowing sign up with such an email address. However, if an account
of this type already exists, we should allow the user to have access to
it.
A few major themes here:
- We remove short_name from UserProfile
and add the appropriate migration.
- We remove short_name from various
cache-related lists of fields.
- We allow import tools to continue to
write short_name to their export files,
and then we simply ignore the field
at import time.
- We change functions like do_create_user,
create_user_profile, etc.
- We keep short_name in the /json/bots
API. (It actually gets turned into
an email.)
- We don't modify our LDAP code much
here.
Due to authentication restrictions, a deployment may need to direct
traffic for mobile applications to an alternate uri to take advantage
alternate authentication mechansism. By default the standard realm URI
will be usedm but if overridden in the settings file, an alternate uri
can be substituted.
Because of other validation on these values, I don't believe any of
these does anything different, but these changes improve readability
and likely make GitHub's code scanners happy.
The helper should be used instead of constructing the dict manually.
Change get_account_data_dict, on GitHubAuthBackendTest
class, so it has a third argument, user_avatar_url.
This is a preparation for support using GitHub avatar
upon user resgistration (when the user logs using
GitHub).
subdomain=None didn't make much sense as a value, and wasn't actually in
use anywhere, except one test where it was accidental. All tests specify
the subdomain explicitly, so we should change the type to str, and make
it an obligatory kwarg.
Adds the ability to set a SAML attribute which contains a
list of subdomains the user is allowed to access. This allows a Zulip
server with multiple organizations to filter using SAML attributes
which organization each user can access.
Cleaned up and adapted by Mateusz Mandera to fit our conventions and
needs more.

The most import change here is the one in maybe_send_to_registration
codepath, as the insufficient validation there could lead to fetching
an expired PreregistrationUser that was invited as an administrator
admin even years ago, leading to this registration ending up in the
new user being a realm administrator.
Combined with the buggy migration in
0198_preregistrationuser_invited_as.py, this led to users incorrectly
joining as organizations administrators by accident. But even without
that bug, this issue could have allowed a user who was invited as an
administrator but then had that invitation expire and then joined via
social authentication incorrectly join as an organization administrator.
The second change is in ConfirmationEmailWorker, where this wasn't a
security problem, but if the server was stopped for long enough, with
some invites to send out email for in the queue, then after starting it
up again, the queue worker would send out emails for invites that
had already expired.
Fixes#14828.
Giving the /subdomain/<token>/ url there could feel buggy if the user
ended up using the token in the desktop app, and then tried clicking the
"continue in browser" link - which had the same token that would now be
expired. It's sufficient to simply link to /login/ instead.

ACCESS_TOKEN_URL works a different for apple authentication, so,
we removed and remocked the ACCESS_TOKEN_URL mock in
`register_extra_endpoints` override of apple auth test class.
It is cleaner to have it as generic feature of `social_auth_test`.
So, this commit adds a function that returns token_data_dict that
we had earlier and is called in the ACCESS_TOKEN_URL mock.
This function is overriden in apple auth test class to generate
payload of the format that apple auth expects.

Adds a top-level logger in `settings.LOGGING` `zulip.auth`
with the default handlers `DEFAULT_ZULIP_HANDLERS` and
an extra hanlder that writes to `/var/log/zulip/auth.log`.
Each auth backend uses it's own logger, `self.logger` which
is in form 'zulip.auth.<backend name>'.
This way it's clear which auth backend generated the log
and is easier to look for all authentication logs in one file.
Besides the above mentioned changes, `name` attribute is added to
`ZulipAuthMixin` so that these logging kind of calls wouldn't raise
any issues when logging is tried in a class without `name` attribute.
Also in the tests we use a new way to check if logger calls are made
i.e. we use `assertLogs` to test if something is logged.
Thanks to Mateusz Mandera for the idea of having a seperate logger
for auth backends and suggestion of using `assertLogs`.

This is important, because lack of this meant that the POST request in
our tests still had the old session, with various params stored in it.
This mechanism doesn't work in reality in SAML, so the backend uses
redis to store and recover the params from redis. Without flushing the
session, these tests would fail to catch some breakages in the
redis-based mechanism.
Helps to see if users are often trying to login with deactived
accounts.
A use case: Trackdown whether any deactivated bot users are still
trying to access the API.
This implementation adds a new key `inactive_user_id`
to `return_data` in the function `is_user_active` which
check if a `user_profile` is active. This reduces the effort
of getting `user_id` just before logging.
Modified tests for line coverage.
Instead of plumbing the idp to /complete/saml/ through redis, it's much
more natural to just figure it out from the SAMLResponse, because the
information is there.
This is also a preparatory step for adding IdP-initiated sign in, for
which it is important for /complete/saml/ to be able to figure out which
IdP the request is coming from.
If the IdP authentication API is flaky for some reason, it can return
bad http responses, which will raise HTTPError inside
python-social-auth. We don't want to generate a traceback
in those cases, but simply log the exception and fail gracefully.
This commit extends the template for "choose email" to mention for
users who have unverified emails that they need to verify them before
using them for Zulip authentication.
Also modified `social_auth_test_finish` to assert if all emails
are present in "choose email" screen as we need unverified emails
to be shown to user and verified emails to login/signup.
Fixes#12638 as this was the last task for that issue.
As "choose email" screen is only used for GitHub auth, the part
that deals with it is separated from `social_auth_test` and
dealt in a new function `social_auth_finish`. This new
`social_auth_finish` contains only the code that deals with
authentication backends that do not have "choose email" screen.
But it is overidden in GitHub test class to handle the
"choose email" screen.
It was refactored because `expect_choose_email_screen` blocks
were confusing while figuring out how tests work on non GitHub
auths.
This does not rely on the desktop app being able to register for the
zulip:// scheme (which is problematic with, for example, the AppImage
format).
It also is a better interface for managing changes to the system,
since the implementation exists almost entirely in the server/webapp
project.
This provides a smoother user experience, where the user doesn't need
to do the paste step, when combined with
https://github.com/zulip/zulip-desktop/pull/943.

This new type eliminates a bunch of messy code that previously
involved passing around long lists of mixed positional keyword and
arguments, instead using a consistent data object for communicating
about the state of an external authentication (constructed in
backends.py).
The result is a significantly more readable interface between
zproject/backends.py and zerver/views/auth.py, though likely more
could be done.
This has the side effect of renaming fields for internally passed
structures from name->full_name, next->redirect_to; this results in
most of the test codebase changes.
Modified by tabbott to add comments and collaboratively rewrite the
initialization logic.
The purpose is to provide a way for (non-webapp) clients,
like the mobile and terminal apps, to tell whether the
server it's talking to is new enough to support a given
API feature -- in particular a way that
* is finer-grained than release numbers, so that for
features developed after e.g. 2.1.0 we can use them
immediately on servers deployed from master (like
chat.zulip.org and zulipchat.com) without waiting the
months until a 2.2 release;
* is reliable, unlike e.g. looking at the number of
commits since a release;
* doesn't lead to a growing bag of named feature flags
which the server has to go on sending forever.
Tweaked by tabbott to extend the documentation.
Closes#14618.
If SAML_REQUIRE_LIMIT_TO_SUBDOMAINS is enabled, the configured IdPs will

settings.py would be a tempting and more natural place to do this
perhaps, but in settings.py we don't do logging and we wouldn't be able
to write a test for it.

to limit the IdP to only allow authenticating to the specified realms.

This used to show a blank page. Considering that the links remain valid
only for 15 seconds it's important to show something more informative to
the user.
The function `prepare_login_url_and_headers` returns a register
link for any value of `is_signup` unless it's not none.
This commit changes it to a boolean for that function and other
functions using it so that it becomes much clearer when a
register link will be returned.
Also, all occurrences of `is_signup='1'` are changed to
`is_signup=True` to make the code consistent with the above change.
When a user in login flow using github auth chooses a email that is

The previous model for GitHub authentication was as follows:
* If the user has only one verified email address, we'll generally just log them in to that account
* If the user has multiple verified email addresses, we will always
prompt them to pick which one to use, with the one registered as
"primary" in GitHub listed at the top.
This change fixes the situation for users going through a "login" flow
(not registration) where exactly one of the emails has an account in
the Zulip oragnization -- they should just be logged in.
Fixes part of #12638.
URLs for config errors were configured seperately for each error
which is better handled by having error name as argument in URL.
A new view `config_error_view` is added containing context for
each error that returns `config_error` page with the relevant
context.
Also fixed tests and some views in `auth.py` to be consistent with
changes.
We try to use the correct variation of `email`
or `delivery_email`, even though in some
databases they are the same.
(To find the differences, I temporarily hacked
populate_db to use different values for email
and delivery_email, and reduced email visibility
in the zulip realm to admins only.)
In places where we want the "normal" realm
behavior of showing emails (and having `email`
be the same as `delivery_email`), we use
the new `reset_emails_in_zulip_realm` helper.
A couple random things:
- I fixed any error messages that were leaking
the wrong email
- a test that claimed to rely on the order
of emails no longer does (we sort user_ids
instead)
- we now use user_ids in some place where we used
to use emails
- for IRC mirrors I just punted and used
`reset_emails_in_zulip_realm` in most places
- for MIT-related tests, I didn't fix email
vs. delivery_email unless it was obvious
I also explicitly reset the realm to a "normal"
realm for a couple tests that I frankly just didn't
have the energy to debug. (Also, we do want some
coverage on the normal case, even though it is
"easier" for tests to pass if you mix up `email`
and `delivery_email`.)
In particular, I just reset data for the analytics
and corporate tests.
We specifically give the existing user different
delivery_email and email addresses, to prevent false
positives during the test that checks that users
signing up with an already-existing email get
an error message.
(We also rename the test.)
We had a bunch of ugly hacks to monkey patch things due to upstream
being temporarily unmaintained and not merging PRs. Now the project is
active again and the fixes have been merged and included in the latest
version - so we clean up all that code.
We now have this API...
If you really just need to log in
and not do anything with the actual
user:
self.login('hamlet')
If you're gonna use the user in the
rest of the test:
hamlet = self.example_user('hamlet')
self.login_user(hamlet)
If you are specifically testing
email/password logins (used only in 4 places):
self.login_by_email(email, password)
And for failures uses this (used twice):
self.assert_login_failure(email)
The email domain restriction to @zulip.com is annoying in development
environment when trying to test sign up. For consistency, it's best to
have tests use the same default, and the tests that require domain
restriction can be adjusted to set that configuration up for themselves
explicitly.
We were using `code` to pass around messages.
The `code` field is designed to be a code, not
a human-readable message.
It's possible that we don't actually need two
flavors of messages for these type of validations,
but I didn't want to change that yet.
We **definitely** don't need to put two types of
message in the exception, so I fix that. Instead,
I just have the caller ask what level of detail
it needs.
I added a non-verbose message for the case of
system bots.
I removed the non-translated version of the message
for deactivated accounts, which didn't have test
coverage and is slightly more prone to leaking
email info that we don't want to leak.
We are trying to kill off `validate_email`, so
we no longer call it from these tests.
These tests are already kind of low-level in
nature, so testing the more specific helpers
here should be fine.
Note that we also make the third parameter
to `validate_email` non-optional in this commit,
to preserve 100% coverage. This is really just
refactoring noise--we will soon eliminate the
entire function, but I didn't want to do everything
in a huge commit.
This has two goals:
- sets up a future commit to bulk-validate
emails
- the extracted function is more simple,
since it just has errors, and no codes
or deactivated flags
This commit leaves us in a somewhat funny
intermediate state where we have
`action.validate_email` being a glorified
two-line function with strange parameters,
but subsequent commits will clean this up:
- we will eliminate validate_email
- we will move most of the guts of its
other callee to lib/email_validation.py
To be clear, the code is correct here, just
kinda in an ugly, temporarily-disorganized
intermediate state.
There was some duplicated code to test config error pages for
different auths which could be handled with less duplicated code
by adding those functions to `SocialAuthBase`.
Also moving the other tests makes it easier to access tests related
to a backend auth when they are in the same file.
Original idea was that KeyError was only going to happen there in case
of user passing bad input params to the endpoint, so logging a generic
message seemed sufficient. But this can also happen in case of
misconfiguration, so it's worth logging more info as it may help in
debugging the configuration.

To avoid some hidden bugs in tests caused by every ldap user having the
same password, we give each user a different password, generated based
on their uids (to avoid some ugly hard-coding in a bunch of places).
This makes it possible to create a Zulip account from the mobile or
desktop apps and have the end result be that the user is logged in on
their mobile device.
We may need small changes in the desktop and/or mobile apps to support
this.
Closes#10859.
This applies rate limiting (through a decorator) of authenticate()
functions in the Email and LDAP backends - because those are the ones
where we check user's password.
The limiting is based on the username that the authentication is
attempted for - more than X attempts in Y minutes to a username is not
permitted.
If the limit is exceeded, RateLimited exception will be raised - this
can be either handled in a custom way by the code that calls
authenticate(), or it will be handled by RateLimitMiddleware and return
a json_error as the response.
The desktop otp flow (to be added in next commits) will want to generate
one-time tokens for the app that will allow it to obtain an
authenticated session. log_into_subdomain will be the endpoint to pass
the one-time token to. Currently it uses signed data as its input
"tokens", which is not compatible with the otp flow, which requires
simpler (and fixed-length) token. Thus the correct scheme to use is to
store the authenticated data in redis and return a token tied to the
data, which should be passed to the log_into_subdomain endpoint.
In this commit, we replace the "pass signed data around" scheme with the
redis scheme, because there's no point having both.
authenticate_remote_user already takes care of calling the authenticate
with the dummy backend. Also, return_data is not used and catching
DoesNotExist exception is not needed, as the dummy backend just returns
None if user isn't found.
responses is an module analogous to httpretty for mocking external
URLs, with a very similar interface (potentially cleaner in that it
makes use of context managers).
The most important (in the moment) problem with httpretty is that it
breaks the ability to use redis in parts of code where httpretty is
enabled. From more research, the module in general has tendency to
have various troublesome bugs with breaking URLs that it shouldn't be
affecting, caused by it working at the socket interface layer. While
those issues could be fixed, responses seems to be less buggy (based
on both third-party reports like ckan/ckan#4755 and our own experience
in removing workarounds for bugs in httpretty) and is more actively
maintained.
Previously, if you tried to invite a user whose account had been
deactivated, we didn't provide a clear path forward for reactivating
the users, which was confusing.
We fix this by plumbing through to the frontend the information that
there is an existing user account with that email address in this
organization, but that it's deactivated. For administrators, we
provide a link for how to reactivate the user.
Fixes#8144.
Our ldap integration is quite sensitive to misconfigurations, so more
logging is better than less to help debug those issues.
Despite the following docstring on ZulipLDAPException:
"Since this inherits from _LDAPUser.AuthenticationFailed, these will
be caught and logged at debug level inside django-auth-ldap's
authenticate()"
We weren't actually logging anything, because debug level messages were
ignored due to our general logging settings. It is however desirable to
log these errors, as they can prove useful in debugging configuration
problems. The django_auth_ldap logger can get fairly spammy on debug
level, so we delegate ldap logging to a separate file
/var/log/zulip/ldap.log to avoid spamming server.log too much.
A block of LDAP integration code related to data synchronization did
not correctly handle EMAIL_ADDRESS_VISIBILITY_ADMINS, as it was
accessing .email, not .delivery_email, both for logging and doing the
mapping between email addresses and LDAP users.
Fixes#13539.
We register ZulipRemoteUserBackend as an external_authentication_method
to make it show up in the corresponding field in the /server_settings
endpoint.
This also allows rendering its login button together with
Google/Github/etc. leading to us being able to get rid of some of the
code that was handling it as a special case - the js code for plumbing
the "next" value and the special {% if only_sso %} block in login.html.
An additional consequence of the login.html change is that now the
backend will have it button rendered even if it isn't the only backend
enabled on the server.
This commit builds a more complete concept of an "external
authentication method". Our social backends become a special case of an
external authentication method - but these changes don't change the
actual behavior of social backends, they allow having other backends
(that come from python-social-auth and don't use the social backend
pipeline) share useful code that so far only serviced social backends.
Most importantly, this allows having other backends show up in the
external_authentication_methods field of the /server_settings endpoint,
as well as rendering buttons through the same mechanism as we already
did for social backends.
This moves the creation of dictonaries describing the backend for the
API and button rendering code away into a method, that each backend in
this category is responsible for defining.
To register a backend as an external_authentication_method, it should
subclass ExternalAuthMethod and define its dict_representation
classmethod, and finally use the external_auth_method class decorator to
get added to the EXTERNAL_AUTH_METHODS list.
The problem was that, for example, given a configuration of social
backend + LDAPPopulator, if a user that's not in ldap was being
registered, the Full Name field in the registration form would be
empty instead of getting prefilled with the name provided by the
social backend.
This fixes it - first we try to get the name from ldap. If that
succeeds, a form is created pre-filled with that name. Otherwise, we
proceed to attempt to pre-fill with other means.
This also has a nice side effect of reorganizing most of the logic to
be more parallel between LDAP and other sources of name data.
Previously, the LDAP code for syncing user data was not
multiple-realm-aware, resulting in errors trying to sync data for an
LDAP user present in multiple realms.
Tweaked by tabbott to add some extended comments.
Fixes#11520.
For a long time, we've been only doing the zxcvbn password strength
checks on the browser, which is helpful, but means users could through
hackery (or a bug in the frontend validation code) manage to set a
too-weak password. We fix this by running our password strength
validation on the backend as well, using python-zxcvbn.
In theory, a bug in python-zxcvbn could result in it producing a
different opinion than the frontend version; if so, it'd be a pretty
bad bug in the library, and hopefully we'd hear about it from users,
report upstream, and get it fixed that way. Alternatively, we can
switch to shelling out to node like we do for KaTeX.
Fixes#6880.
A bug in Zulip's new user signup process meant that users who
registered their account using social authentication (e.g. GitHub or
Google SSO) in an organization that also allows password
authentication could have their personal API key stolen by an
unprivileged attacker, allowing nearly full access to the user's
account.
Zulip versions between 1.7.0 and 2.0.6 were affected.
This commit fixes the original bug and also contains a database
migration to fix any users with corrupt `password` fields in the
database as a result of the bug.
Out of an abundance of caution (and to protect the users of any
installations that delay applying this commit), the migration also
resets the API keys of any users where Zulip's logs cannot prove the
user's API key was not previously stolen via this bug. Resetting
those API keys will be inconvenient for users:
* Users of the Zulip mobile and terminal apps whose API keys are reset
will be logged out and need to login again.
* Users using their personal API keys for any other reason will need
to re-fetch their personal API key.
We discovered this bug internally and don't believe it was disclosed
prior to our publishing it through this commit. Because the algorithm
for determining which users might have been affected is very
conservative, many users who were never at risk will have their API
keys reset by this migration.
To avoid this on self-hosted installations that have always used
e.g. LDAP authentication, we skip resetting API keys on installations
that don't have password authentication enabled. System
administrators on installations that used to have email authentication
enabled, but no longer do, should temporarily enable EmailAuthBackend
before applying this migration.
The migration also records which users had their passwords or API keys
reset in the usual RealmAuditLog table.
The state of the FAKELDAP setup for the dev env has fallen behind the
backend changes and updates to fakeldap (which implemented
SCOPE_ONELEVEL searches), as well as having some other minor issues.
This commit restore it to a working state and now all three config modes
work properly.
Having to account everywhere for both cases of having and not
having email search configured makes things needlessly complicated.
It's better to make the setting obligatory in configurations other than
LDAP_APPEND_DOMAIN.
By adding some additional plumbing (through PreregistrationUser) of the
full_name and an additional full_name_validated option, we
pre-populate the Full Name field in the registration form when coming
through a social backend (google/github/saml/etc.) and potentially skip
the registration form (if the user would have nothing to do there other
than clicking the Confirm button) and just create the account and log
the user in.
The main purpose of this is to make that name change happen in
/server_settings. external_authentication_methods is a much better, more
descriptive name than social_backends from API perspective.
These are returned through the API, at the /server_settings
endpoint. It's better to just return the list of dicts with a guarantee
of being sorted in the correct order, than to clutter things with the
sort_order field.
This legacy endpoint was designed for the original native Zulip mobile
apps, which were deprecated years ago in favor of the React Native
app.
It was replaced by /server_settings for active use years ago, so it's
safe to remove it now.
The url scheme is now /accounts/login/social/saml/{idp_name} to initiate
login using the IdP configured under "idp_name" name.
display_name and display_logo (the name and icon to show on the "Log in
with" button) can be customized by adding the apprioprate settings in
the configured IdP dictionaries.
This changes the way django_to_ldap_username works to make sure the ldap
username it returns actually has a corresponding ldap entry and raise an
exception if that's not possible. It seems to be a more sound approach
than just having it return its best guess - which was the case so far.
Now there is a guarantee that what it returns is the username of an
actual ldap user.
This allows communicating to the registration flow when the email being
registered doesn't belong to ldap, which then will proceed to register
it via the normal email backend flow - finally fixing the bug where you
couldn't register a non-ldap email even with the email backend enabled.
These changes to the behavior of django_to_ldap_username require small
refactorings in a couple of other functions that call it, as well as
adapting some tests to these changes. Finally, additional tests are
added for the above-mentioned registration flow behavior and some
related corner-cases.
Instead of mocking the _LDAPUser class, these tests can now take
advantage of the test directory that other ldap are using. After these
changes, test_query_email_attr also verifies that query_ldap can
successfully be used to query by user email, if email search is
configured.
Fixes#11878
Instead of a confusing mix of django_auth_backed applying
ldap_to_django_username in its internals for one part of the
translation, and then custom logic for grabbing it from the email
attribute of the ldapuser in ZulipLDAPAuthBackend.get_or_build_user
for the second part of the translation,
we put all the logic in a single function user_email_from_ldapuser
which will be used by get_or_build of both ZulipLDAPUserPopulator and
ZulipLDAPAuthBackend.
This, building on the previous commits with the email search feature,
fixes the ldap sync bug from issue #11878.
If we can get upstream django-auth-ldap to merge
https://github.com/django-auth-ldap/django-auth-ldap/pull/154, we'll
be able to go back to using the version of ldap_to_django_username
that accepts a _LDAPUser object.
With this, django_to_ldap_username can take an email and find the ldap
username of the ldap user who has this email - if email search is
configured.
This allows successful authenticate() with ldap email and ldap password,
instead of ldap username. This is especially useful because when
a user wants to fetch their api key, the server attempts authenticate
with user_profile.email - and this used to fail if the user was an ldap
user (because the ldap username was required to authenticate
succesfully). See issue #9277.
This fixes a collection of bugs surrounding LDAP configurations A and
C (i.e. LDAP_APPEND_DOMAIN=None) with EmailAuthBackend also enabled.
The core problem was that our desired security model in that setting
of requiring LDAP authentication for accounts managed by LDAP was not
implementable without a way to
Now admins can configure an LDAPSearch query that will find if there
are users in LDAP that have the email address and
email_belongs_to_ldap() will take advantage of that - no longer
returning True in response to all requests and thus blocking email
backend authentication.
In the documentation, we describe this as mandatory configuration for
users (and likely will make it so soon in the code) because the
failure modes for this not being configured are confusing.
But making that change is pending work to improve the relevant error
messages.
Fixes#11715.
MigrationsTestCase is intentionally omitted from this, since migrations
tests are different in their nature and so whatever setUp()
ZulipTestCase may do in the future, MigrationsTestCase may not
necessarily want to replicate.
There are a few outstanding issues that we expect to resolve beforce
including this in a release, but this is good checkpoint to merge.
This PR is a collaboration with Tim Abbott.
Fixes#716.
Also cleans up the interface between the management command and the
LDAP backends code to not guess/recompute under what circumstances
what should be logged.

The order of operations for our LDAP synchronization code wasn't
correct: We would run the code to sync avatars (etc.) even for
deactivated users.
Thanks to niels for the report.
Co-authored-by: mateuszmandera <mateusz.mandera@protonmail.com>
Fixes#13130.
django_auth_ldap doesn't give any other way of detecting that LDAPError
happened other than catching the signal it emits - so we have to
register a receiver. In the receiver we just raise our own Exception
which will properly propagate without being silenced by
django_auth_ldap. This will stop execution before the user gets
deactivated.
I changed the class of the title in order to use the same styling as the
other similar pages (like `/accounts/go` or `/login`).
Changed the related test.
