When our handlers specifically reference self.md.zulip_db_data,
we now use an explicit type.
We probably want a more robust solution here, such as a semgrep
rule.
We now serialize still_url as None for non-animated emojis,
instead of omitting the field. The webapp does proper checks
for falsiness here. The mobile app does not yet use the field
(to my knowledge).
We bump the API version here. More discussion here:
https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/378-api-design/topic/still_url/near/1302573
If null is a potential value of data type for a return value or
parameter in the API endpoint, then it is rendered as an option.
This currently relies on the 'nullable' setting in the OpenAPI spec
that was removed in the 3.1.0 release. If/when the OpenAPI version
is updated, then how the `data_type` for parameters and return values
is rendered will need to be reworked.
Fixes#20264.
Not proxying these requests through camo is a security concern.
Furthermore, on the desktop client, any embed image which is hosted on
a server with an expired or otherwise invalid certificate will trigger
a blocking modal window with no clear source and a confusing error
message; see zulip/zulip-desktop#1119.
Rewrite all `message_embed_image` URLs through camo, if it is enabled.
Supporting URL percent-encoded bytes is possible using `%%20`, but this
is not necessarily very understandable to end-users, even those that
understand percent encoding.
Allow `%20` in linkifier URL format strings, and transform them into
`%%20` in the pattern just before they are applied in markdown
translation. Care must be taken here, such that already-escaped `%`s
are not escaped an extra time.
We do this before rendering, and not before storage, as
a simplification; the JS-side linkifier at present only understands
`%(foo)s` and thus needs no changes, and to avoid an un-escaping pass
before showing in the admin UI.
og:image is supposed to be an absolute URL, but some sites incorrectly
provide a relative URL. In this case, it makes more sense to
interpret it relative to the full page URL after redirects, rather
than relative to just the domain part of the page URL before
redirects.

Zulip attempts to validate that the regular expressions that admins
enter for linkifiers are well-formatted, and only contain a specific
subset of regex grammar. The process of checking these
properties (via a regex!) can cause denial-of-service via
backtracking.
Furthermore, this validation itself does not prevent the creation of
linkifiers which themselves cause denial-of-service when they are
executed. As the validator accepts literally anything inside of a
`(?P<word>...)` block, any quadratic backtracking expression can be
hidden therein.
Switch user-provided linkifier patterns to be matched in the Markdown
processor by the `re2` library, which is guaranteed constant-time.
This somewhat limits the possible features of the regular
expression (notably, look-head and -behind, and back-references);
however, these features had never been advertised as working in the
context of linkifiers.
A migration removes any existing linkifiers which would not function
under re2, after printing them for posterity during the upgrade; they
are unlikely to be common, and are impossible to fix automatically.
The denial-of-service in the linkifier validator was discovered by
@erik-krogh and @yoff, as GHSL-2021-118.
This fixes the issue where 'None' would appear in the rendered
html in case of a missing tab display_name. Now,
'test-help-documentation' will fail in case of any tab display_name
being missing.
In case of a tab_section with no tabs, currently a single tab with
the name 'null_tab' gets added. Added the display name 'None' for
'null_tab', to keep in line with the existing behaviour.
Fixes#19822
Recently, we discovered that our settings_tab/relative Markdown
directives didn't work when they were in a macro that was included
in another Markdown file. Note that without this commit, the
/help/create-your-organization-profile page is broken. This commit
changes the respective priorities of these two extensions such that
these directives are rendered *after* the macro is included in
another file.
Thanks to Alya Abbott for reporting this bug!
All of our custom Markdown extensions have priorities that govern
the order in which the preprocessors will be run. It is more
convenient to have these all in one file so that you can easily
discern the order at first glance.
Thanks to Alya Abbott for reporting the bug that led to this
refactoring!
This check was copied from upstream python-markdown's "safe mode"
before they removed that feature. The upstream history is that they
introduced this check in
2db5d1c8e4,
which was not a complete security check, and then added the
immediately following check (with an allowlist of schemes) in
0b4ffbb60e.
Their first, incomplete check provides no security benefit and makes
the code hard to reason about, so we remove it.
This adds the X-Smokescreen-Role header to proxy connections, to track
usage from various codepaths, and enforces a timeout. Timeouts were
kept consistent with their previous values, or set to 5s if they had
none previously.
This commits removes some unnecessary checks for `self.md.zulip_message`,
which were put there historically, as earlier we used to add the additional
properties like mentions_user_ids, alert_words, etc. to Message dict
only. These were later moved to MessageRenderingResult class in commit
75cea329b but the checks weren't removed.
This is important because while rendering the messages imported from
other chat tools (like Rocket.Chat), the Message dict is not passed to
the markdown, due to which the checks for `self.md.zerver_message` fails
and hence, things like user mentions, stream/topic mentions are not
rendered in the imported messages properly.
These changes are all independent of each other; I just didn’t feel
like making dozens of commits for them.

As we have changed the tab selector above from "Settings" to "Personal
settings", we can simply change "Your bots" to "Bots" as "Bots" is
clear enough given the personal settings context.
We also need to update the API documentation for bots accordingly.
This commit fixes the documentation of settings as we have
replaced "Your account" section into two new sections -
"Profile" and "Account & privacy".
This commit also fixes a comment in the test for settings
documentation in test_middleware.py.
This adds a new class called MessageRenderingResult to contain the
additional properties we added to the Message object (like alert_words)
as well as the rendered content to ensure typesafe reference. No
behavioral change is made except changes in typing.
This is a preparatory change for adding django-stubs to the backend.
Related: #18777
Currently, the message that no parameters are accepted by
the endpoint is displayed if there are no parameters in
OpenAPI data, but it is possible that information is
encoded in x-parameter-description (example in upload-file
endpoint), and we want to display that information rather
than the message.
Added an if condition to check the same.
The headings for return values were currently hardcoded
in cases where they occur, but they can be rendered directly
in the markdown extension if the return values exist.
This should help with #17425, where messages with lots of LaTeX are
lost, due to the large expansion factor.
This isn't a total fix for this - large messages with lots of LaTeX
can still end up larger than 1MB, and rendering could timeout, but
this fix should help significantly.
1MB is still small enough that I don't expect we'll run into any DOS
problems - my testing didn't show any problems rendering messages that
contain ~1MB of LaTeX.
This will offer users who are self-hosting to adjust
this value. Moreover, this will help to reduce the
overall time taken to test `test_markdown.py` (since
this can be now overridden with `override_settings`
Django decorator).
This is done as a prep commit for #18641.

Prior to this, we only supported direct mention to
the user groups. This commit extends that support
to silent mention for the user groups.
A related test case is also added.
Fixes: #11711.
Earlier, USER_GROUP_MENTIONS_RE was:
r"(?<![^\s\'\"\(,:<])@(\*[^\*]+\*)"
For the syntax: *foo*, this was unnecessarily capturing it as
*foo* and the extraction of `foo` was done using another helper
function: `extract_user_group`.
This is now changed as:
r"(?<![^\s\'\"\(,:<])@(\*(?P<match>[^\*]+)\*)"
and extraction of `foo` can be done just by using the named capture
group `match`.
This change also helps to simplify its related code path.
Earlier, MENTIONS_RE was:
r"(?<![^\s\'\"\(,:<])@(?P<silent>_?)(?P<match>\*\*[^\*]+\*\*)"
For the syntax: **foo**, this was unnecessarily capturing it as
**foo** and adding extra operation for the extraction of `foo`.
This is now changed as:
r"(?<![^\s\'\"\(,:<])@(?P<silent>_?)(\*\*(?P<match>[^\*]+)\*\*)"
and extraction of `foo` can be done just by using the named capture
group `match`.
This change also helps to simplify its related code path.
Following the convention, we use uppercase for
regex. Also, `user_group_mentions` is given a
conventional name ending with `*_RE`: `USER_GROUP_MENTIONS_RE`.
Also link to it from the API documentation page,
other help pages, and the confirmation dialog for
muting a user.
With substantial edits by tabbott and alya.
A message containing wildcard mention when quoted (which
is turned into a silent mention) or message with silent
wildcard mention notifies the users by sending desktop,
sound, and missed message email notifications. This
is clearly a bug which is fixed by this commit.

* Move the extended documentation of code blocks to a separate page.
* Merge "code playgrounds" documentation to be a section of that page.
* Document copy widget on code blocks.
* This commit changes how we refer to "```python" type syntax for code
blocks. Instead of being called a syntax highlighting label, this is
now referred to as a "language tag", since it serves both syntax
highlighting and playgrounds.
* Remap all the links.
* Advertise this new page in various places that previously did not have a link.
Linked the Help Center document in places like
- zulip.yaml (/events, /register/, realm/playgrounds,
/realm/playgrounds/{playground_id})
- /help/format-your-message-using-markdown (Linked to make
users reading the markdown code block style, aware of this
feature)
- /templates/settings/playground_settings_admin.hbs (Linked

Also showcase the feature on /features and /for/open-source.
Requesting external images is a privacy risk, so route all external

Tweaked by tabbott for better test coverage, more comments, and to fix
bugs.
This logic likely never ran due to a combination of bugs.
* Running `maybe_update_markdown_engines` unconditionally meant that
`if md_engine_key in md_engines` was likely always true.
* Introduced in 65838bb: DEFAULT_MARKDOWN_KEY could never be in
md_engines, so should we have ever reached that code path, we'd have
tried to rebuild all markdown engines every time.
And it also wasn't clearly helpful -- because we fetch all linkifiers
for a realm on every request anyway, we don't really save database
queries by doing a bulk fetch on startup, and doing so would likely
result in a material regression to Zulip's overall startup time that
we were creating markdown engines for large numbers of realms in bulk
during process startup.
The comments explain in some detail, but basically we were displaying
the types for booleans incorrectly, and the types for strings in a
somewhat confusing fashion. Fix this with comments explaining the logic.
Using JSON dumping also results in our showing strings inside
quotation marks in our examples, which seems net helpful.
Thanks to ArunSankarKs for finding where we needed to change the
codebase.
Fixes#18021.
This reverts commit 9c6d8d9d81 (#16916).

Backend logic for handling user mention was cluttered
because it was handled at two stages first in
get_possible_mentions_info while fetching mention data
based on the messsage and then later in UserMentionPattern
which handles processing of text for mention.
Ideally UserMentionPattern should depend on
get_possible_mentions_info only for data but there was a
shared logic between these two that made it hard to debug
any possible bugs.
Updates in this commit make both of these functions
coherent in terms of logic and also add appropiate
comments to improve readability of these functions.
There was also a hidden bug that if a user A is
mentioned in with @**name|id** then @**invalid|id**
again mentioned A because of the way we handled mentions
earlier. It is solved as a result of this refactor and
appropiate test has been added for this.
This has been tested manually as well as by adding new
test to address missing case.
Extend our markdown system to support mentioning of users
by id also. Following these changes, it would be possible
to mention users with @**|user_id** and silently mention
using @_**|user_id**.
Main intention for extending the mention syntax is to make
it convenient for bots to mention a users using their ids. It
is to be noted that previous syntax are also supported.
Documentation tweaked by tabbott for better readability.
The changes were tested manually in development server, and also
by adding some new backend and frontend tests.
Fixes: #17487.
We add support to shorten links and test their shortening in
well-organized, clean manner that makes it trivial to extend the
GitHub approach for GitLab and perhaps other services.
We only shorten basic types of GitHub links (issue, PR, commit) that
fit a set of simple common patterns; the default behaviour of Autolink
is kept for everything else.
Logic added in frontend and backend Markdown Processor is identical.
This makes easy to extend the logic for other services like GitLab.
Fixes#11895.
Modifies `StreamPattern` and `StreamTopicPattern` to inherit
from InlineProcessor instead of Pattern. This change is done
because Pattern stopped checking for matching patterns as soon
as it found a match which was not a valid stream. Due to this
all the subsequent mention failed, even if they were valid.
This bug was only present in backend renderring due to
markdown.inlinepatterns.Pattern.
Due to above changes verbose_compile is no longer used for
precompiling STREAM_LINK_REGEX, STREAM_TOPIC_LINK_REGEX as
adds ^(.*?) and (.*?)$ which cause extra overhead of matching
pattern which is not required. With new InlineProcessor these
extra patterns at beggining and end are not required.
So, StreamPattern and StreamTopicPattern now define their own
__init__ method for precompiling the regex.
Fixes#17535.

as well, and moved these checks to a separate function.
