Rewrite the test so that we don't have a dedicated URL for testing.
dev_update_subgroups is called directly from the tests without using the
test client.
**Background**
User groups are expected to comply with the DAG constraint for the
many-to-many inter-group membership. The check for this constraint has
to be performed recursively so that we can find all direct and indirect
subgroups of the user group to be added.
This kind of check is vulnerable to phantom reads which is possible at
the default read committed isolation level because we cannot guarantee
that the check is still valid when we are adding the subgroups to the
user group.
**Solution**
To avoid having another transaction concurrently update one of the
to-be-subgroup after the recursive check is done, and before the subgroup
is added, we use SELECT FOR UPDATE to lock the user group rows.
The lock needs to be acquired before a group membership change is about
to occur before any check has been conducted.
Suppose that we are adding subgroup B to supergroup A, the locking protocol
is specified as follows:
1. Acquire a lock for B and all its direct and indirect subgroups.
2. Acquire a lock for A.
For the removal of user groups, we acquire a lock for the user group to
be removed with all its direct and indirect subgroups. This is the special
case A=B, which is still complaint with the protocol.
**Error handling**
We currently rely on Postgres' deadlock detection to abort transactions
and show an error for the users. In the future, we might need some
recovery mechanism or at least better error handling.
**Notes**
An important note is that we need to reuse the recursive CTE query that
finds the direct and indirect subgroups when applying the lock on the
rows. And the lock needs to be acquired the same way for the addition and
removal of direct subgroups.
User membership change (as opposed to user group membership) is not
affected. Read-only queries aren't either. The locks only protect
critical regions where the user group dependency graph might violate
the DAG constraint, where users are not participating.
**Testing**
We implement a transaction test case targeting some typical scenarios
when an internal server error is expected to happen (this means that the
user group view makes the correct decision to abort the transaction when
something goes wrong with locks).
To achieve this, we add a development view intended only for unit tests.
It has a global BARRIER that can be shared across threads, so that we
can synchronize them to consistently reproduce certain potential race
conditions prevented by the database locks.
The transaction test case lanuches pairs of threads initiating possibly
conflicting requests at the same time. The tests are set up such that exactly N
of them are expected to succeed with a certain error message (while we don't
know each one).
**Security notes**
get_recursive_subgroups_for_groups will no longer fetch user groups from
other realms. As a result, trying to add/remove a subgroup from another
realm results in a UserGroup not found error response.
We also implement subgroup-specific checks in has_user_group_access to
keep permission managing in a single place. Do note that the API
currently don't have a way to violate that check because we are only
checking the realm ID now.
Adds typing notification constants to the response given by
`POST /register`. Until now, these were hardcoded by clients
based on the documentation for implementing typing notifications
in the main endpoint description for `api/set-typing-status`.
This change also reflects updating the web-app frontend code
to use the new constants from the register response.

This adds API support to reorder linkifiers and makes sure that the
returned lists of linkifiers from `GET /events`, `POST /register`, and
`GET /realm/linkifiers` are always sorted with the order that they
should processed when rendering linkifiers.
We set the new `order` field to the ID with the migration. This
preserves the order of the existing linkifiers.
New linkifiers added will always be ordered the last. When reordering,
the `order` field of all linkifiers in the same realm is updated, in
a manner similar to how we implement ordering for
`custom_profile_fields`.
Restore the default django.utils.log.AdminEmailHandler when
ERROR_REPORTING is enabled. Those with more sophisticated needs can
turn it off and use Sentry or a Sentry-compatible system.

Uploads are well-positioned to use S3's "intelligent tiering" storage
class. Add a setting to let uploaded files to declare their desired
storage class at upload time, and document how to move existing files
to the same storage class.
Pass the HttpRequest explicitly through the two webhooks that log to
the webhook loggers.
get_current_request is now unused, so remove it (in the same commit
for test coverage reasons).

Combine nginx and Django middlware to stop putting misleading warnings
about `CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS` when the issue is untrusted proxies.
This attempts to, in the error logs, diagnose and suggest next steps

Having exactly 17 or 18 middlewares, on Python 3.11.0 and above,
causes python to segfault when running tests with coverage; see
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/106092
Work around this by adding one or two no-op middlewares if we would
hit those unlucky numbers. We only add them in testing, since
coverage is a requirement to trigger it, and there is no reason to
burden production with additional wrapping.
This endpoint was previously marked as `intentionally_undocumented`
but that was mistake.
Removed `intentionally_undocumented` and added proper documentation
with valid `python_example` for this Endpoint.
Fixes: #24084
THUMBNAIL_IMAGES was previously set to true as there were tests on a new
thumbnail functionality. The feature was never stable enough to remain in
the codebase and the setting was left enabled. This setting also doesn't
reflect how the production deployments are and it has been decided that we
should drop setting from test_extra_settings altogether.

Failing to remove all of the rules which were added causes action at a
distance with other tests. The two methods were also only used by
test code, making their existence in zerver.lib.rate_limiter clearly
misplaced.
This fixes one instance of a mis-balanced add/remove, which caused
tests to start failing if run non-parallel and one more anonymous
request was added within a rate-limit-enabled block.
This in-progress feature was started in 2018 and hasn't
been worked on much since. It's already in a broken state,
which makes it hard to iterate on the existing search bar
since it's hard to know how those changes will affect search
pills.
We do still want to add search pills eventually, and when
we work on that, we can refer to this diff to readd the
changes back.
Part of splitting creating and editing scheduled messages.
Should be merged with final commit in series. Breaks tests.
Splits out editing an existing scheduled message into a new
view function and updated `edit_scheduled_message` function.
This doesn't have any obvious security implications right now, but
nonetheless such information is not meant to stick around in the session
if authentication didn't succeed and not cleaning up would be a bug.
This is a useful improvement in general for making correct
LogoutRequests to Idps and a necessary one to make SP-initiated logout
fully work properly in the desktop application. During desktop auth
flow, the user goes through the browser, where they log in through their
IdP. This gives them a logged in browser session at the IdP. However,
SAML SP-initiated logout is fully conducted within the desktop
application. This means that proper information needs to be given to the
the IdP in the LogoutRequest to let it associate the LogoutRequest with
that logged in session that was established in the browser. SessionIndex
is exactly the tool for that in the SAML spec.
This gives more flexibility on a server with multiple organizations and
SAML IdPs. Such a server can have some organizations handled by IdPs
with SLO set up, and some without it set up. In such a scenario, having
a generic True/False server-wide setting is insufficient and instead
being able to specify the IdPs/orgs for SLO is needed.
Closes#20084
This is the flow that this implements:
1. A logged-in user clicks "Logout".
2. If they didn't auth via SAML, just do normal logout. Otherwise:
3. Form a LogoutRequest and redirect the user to
https://idp.example.com/slo-endpoint?SAMLRequest=<LogoutRequest here>
4. The IdP validates the LogoutRequest, terminates its own user session
and redirects the user to
https://thezuliporg.example.com/complete/saml/?SAMLRequest=<LogoutResponse>
with the appropriate LogoutResponse. In case of failure, the
LogoutResponse is expected to express that.
5. Zulip validates the LogoutResponse and if the response is a success
response, it executes the regular Zulip logout and the full flow is
finished.
We now set tos_version to "-1" for imported users and the ones
created using API or using other methods like LDAP, SCIM and
management commands. This value will help us to allow users to
change email address visibility setting during first login.
The immediate application of this will be for SAML SP-initiated logout,
where information about which IdP was used for authenticating the
session needs to be accessed. Aside of that, this seems like generally
valuable session information to keep that other features may benefit
from in the future.
This will help us remove scheduled message and reminder logic
from `/messages` code path.
Removes `deliver_at`/`defer_until` and `tz_guess` parameters. And
adds the `scheduled_delivery_timestamp` instead. Also updates the
scheduled message dicts to return `scheduled_delivery_timestamp`.
Also, revises some text in `/delete-scheduled-message` endpoint
and in the `ScheduledMessage` schema in the API documentation.
In #23380 we want to change all ocurrences of `uri` to `url`. This
commit changes the ocurrences of `uri` appeared in files related to
email, including templates (`.html`, `.txt`) and backend (`.py`)
codes.
In `email.md`, `base_images_uri` is changed to `images_base_url` -
the words `base` and `images` are swapped and plural form is added
for `image`. This is becasue the former is not found anywhere in
the codebase while the later appears a lot. To reduce confusion,
this doccumentation changed accordingly.
This implements the core of the rewrite described in:
For the backend data model for UserPresence to one that supports much
more efficient queries and is more correct around handling of multiple
clients. The main loss of functionality is that we no longer track
which Client sent presence data (so we will no longer be able to say
using UserPresence "the user was last online on their desktop 15
minutes ago, but was online with their phone 3 minutes ago"). If we
consider that information important for the occasional investigation
query, we have can construct that answer data via UserActivity
already. It's not worth making Presence much more expensive/complex
to support it.
For slim_presence clients, this sends the same data format we sent
before, albeit with less complexity involved in constructing it. Note
that we at present will always send both last_active_time and
last_connected_time; we may revisit that in the future.
This commit doesn't include the finalizing migration, which drops the
UserPresenceOld table.
The way to deploy is to start the backfill migration with the server
down and then start the server *without* the user_presence queue worker,
to let the migration finish without having new data interfering with it.
Once the migration is done, the queue worker can be started, leading to
the presence data catching up to the current state as the queue worker
goes over the queued up events and updating the UserPresence table.

Moves jwt_fetch_api_key endpoint to v1_api_mobile_patterns so
that tools/test-api detects it as an API endpoint that is pending
documentation.
Fixes#24982.
So far, we've used the BitField .authentication_methods on Realm
for tracking which backends are enabled for an organization. This
however made it a pain to add new backends (requiring altering the
column and a migration - particularly troublesome if someone wanted to
create their own custom auth backend for their server).
Instead this will be tracked through the existence of the appropriate
rows in the RealmAuthenticationMethods table.
