python 3.8 support for python-api-bindings was fixed in commit
63bc9b8a4f
so upgraded python-api-bindings to tag 0.6.3 which included this fix.
Bumped PROVISION_VERSION.
Django 2.2.x is the next LTS release after Django 1.11.x; I expect
we'll be on it for a while, as Django 3.x won't have an LTS release
series out for a while.
Because of upstream API changes in Django, this commit includes
several changes beyond requirements and:
* urls: django.urls.resolvers.RegexURLPattern has been replaced by
django.urls.resolvers.URLPattern; affects OpenAPI code and related
features which re-parse Django's internals.
https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/28593
* test_runner: Change number to suffix. Django changed the name in this
ticket: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/28578
* Delete now-unnecessary SameSite cookie code (it's now the default).
* forms: urlsafe_base64_encode returns string in Django 2.2.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/ref/utils/#django.utils.http.urlsafe_base64_encode
* upload: Django's File.size property replaces _get_size().
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/_modules/django/core/files/base/
* process_queue: Migrate to new autoreload API.
* test_messages: Add an extra query caused by .refresh_from_db() losing
the .select_related() on the Realm object.
* session: Sync SessionHostDomainMiddleware with Django 2.2.
There's a lot more we can do to take advantage of the new release;
this is tracked in #11341.
Many changes by Tim Abbott, Umair Waheed, and Mateusz Mandera squashed
are squashed into this commit.
Fixes#10835.
Zulip has had a small use of WebSockets (specifically, for the code
path of sending messages, via the webapp only) since ~2013. We
originally added this use of WebSockets in the hope that the latency
benefits of doing so would allow us to avoid implementing a markdown
local echo; they were not. Further, HTTP/2 may have eliminated the
latency difference we hoped to exploit by using WebSockets in any
case.
While we’d originally imagined using WebSockets for other endpoints,
there was never a good justification for moving more components to the
WebSockets system.
This WebSockets code path had a lot of downsides/complexity,
including:
* The messy hack involving constructing an emulated request object to
hook into doing Django requests.
* The `message_senders` queue processor system, which increases RAM
needs and must be provisioned independently from the rest of the
server).
* A duplicate check_send_receive_time Nagios test specific to
WebSockets.
* The requirement for users to have their firewalls/NATs allow
WebSocket connections, and a setting to disable them for networks
where WebSockets don’t work.
* Dependencies on the SockJS family of libraries, which has at times
been poorly maintained, and periodically throws random JavaScript
exceptions in our production environments without a deep enough
traceback to effectively investigate.
* A total of about 1600 lines of our code related to the feature.
* Increased load on the Tornado system, especially around a Zulip
server restart, and especially for large installations like
zulipchat.com, resulting in extra delay before messages can be sent
again.
As detailed in
https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/12862#issuecomment-536152397, it
appears that removing WebSockets moderately increases the time it
takes for the `send_message` API query to return from the server, but
does not significantly change the time between when a message is sent
and when it is received by clients. We don’t understand the reason
for that change (suggesting the possibility of a measurement error),
and even if it is a real change, we consider that potential small
latency regression to be acceptable.
If we later want WebSockets, we’ll likely want to just use Django
Channels.

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.
Send the `csrftoken` and `sessionid` cookies with `SameSite=Lax`.
This adds a layer of defense against CSRF attacks and matches the new
default in Django 2.1:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/releases/2.1/#samesite-cookies
This can be reverted when we upgrade to Django ≥ 2.1.

This avoids expensive `git clone` operations during provisioning and
installation, and will also allow us to use `pip-compile
--generate-hashes` for better security.

This makes no changes to the locked versions in *.txt, but it reduces
duplicate information and gives us sane workflows for
* upgrading packages: remove some or all lines from *.txt and re-run
`update-locked-requirements`;
* marking packages as intentionally held back: add a version bound
to *.in with an explanatory comment.

Also move it to dev.in.
Other notes for posterity: this should have been installed with a
pinned commit hash, and could have been installed directly from the
upstream Git repository, even on Python 3.7, as long as Cython was
installed as well.

The original seems to be unmaintained
(johnsensible/django-sendfile#65). Notably, this fixes a bug in the
filename parameter, which perviously showed the Python 3 repr of a
byte string (johnsensible/django-sendfile#49).

This gives us access to typing_extensions.Deque, which was not added
to typing until 3.5.4.
(PROVISION_VERSION is not bumped because the transitive dependency set
in dev.txt hasn’t changed.)

We already had this as an indirect dependency, but now it's going to be
needed to write a decorator for rate limiting authenticate() functions,
so it should be added to common.in.
Fixes#11209.
This requires changing how zadd is used in rate_limiter.py:
In redis-py >= 3.0 the pairs to ZADD need to be passed as a dictionary,
not as *args or **kwargs, as described at
https://pypi.org/project/redis/3.2.1/ in the section
"Upgrading from redis-py 2.X to 3.0".
The rate_limiter change has to be in one commit with the redis upgrade,
because the dict format is not supported before redis-py 3.0.
This replaces the two custom Google authentication backends originally
written in 2012 with using the shared python-social-auth codebase that
we already use for the GitHub authentication backend. These are:
* GoogleMobileOauth2Backend, the ancient code path for mobile
authentication last used by the EOL original Zulip Android app.
* The `finish_google_oauth2` code path in zerver/views/auth.py, which
was the webapp (and modern mobile app) Google authentication code
path.
This change doesn't fix any known bugs; its main benefit is that we
get to remove hundreds of lines of security-sensitive semi-duplicated
code, replacing it with a widely trusted, high quality third-party
library.
If a url doesn't have a scheme, browsers would treat it as a relative
url and open something like: https://chat.zulip.org/google.com instead.
This PR fixes the issue on the backend; the frontend implementation
remains out of sync and the user sending the message wouldn't see
any linkification for urls without a scheme.
Fixes#12791.
* backports-abc: For old Python versions.
* backports.ssl-match-hostname: For old Python versions.
* docopt: Has never been used directly.
* gitdb: Has never been used directly.
* ndg-httpsclient: No longer used by requests ≥ 2.12.1.
* pycrypto: Has never been used directly.
* smmap: Has never been used directly.
* typing: For old Python versions.
* typing_extensions: For old Python versions.
PROVISION_VERSION is not bumped because these were already unused
since at least the last major bump.
