This is necessary for mobile apps to do the right thing when only
RemoteUserBackend is enabled, namely, directly redirect to the
third-party SSO auth site as soon as the user enters the server URL
(no need to display a login form, since it'll be useless).
Previously, we used to raise an exception if the direct dev login code
path was attempted when:
* we were running under production environment.
* dev. login was not enabled.
Now we redirect to an error page and give an explanatory message to the
user.
Fixes#8249.
When the answer is False, this will allow the mobile app to show a
warning that push notifications will not work and the server admin
should set them up.
Based partly on Kunal's PR #7810. Provides the necessary backend API
for zulip/zulip-mobile#1507.
For example, this means that if a user already has an account on one
realm and they try to make an account on another by hitting "Sign in
with Google" (rather than following the little "Register" link to a
"Sign up with Google" button instead), they'll get to make an account
instead of getting an error.
Until very recently, if the user existed on another realm, any attempt
to register with that email address had to fail in the end, so this
logic gave the user a useful error message early. We introduced it in
c23aaa178 "GitHub: Show error on login page for wrong subdomain"
back in 2016-10 for that purpose. No longer! We now support reusing
an email on multiple realms, so we let the user proceed instead.
This function's interface is kind of confusing, but I believe when its
callers use it properly, `invalid_subdomain` should only ever be true
when `user_profile` is None -- in which case the revised
`invalid_subdomain` condition in this commit can never actually fire,
and the `invalid_subdomain` parameter no longer has any effect. (At
least some unit tests call this function improperly in that respect.)
I've kept this commit to a minimal change, but it would be a good
followup to go through the call sites, verify that, eliminate the use
of `invalid_subdomain`, then remove it from the function entirely.
We would allow a user with a valid invitation for one realm to use it
on a different realm instead. On a server with multiple realms, an
authorized user of one realm could use this (by sending invites to
other email addresses they control) to create accounts on other
realms. (CVE-2017-0910)
With this commit, when sending an invitation, we record the inviting
user's realm on the PreregistrationUser row; and when registering a
user, we check that the PregistrationUser realm matches the realm the
user is trying to register on. This resolves CVE-2017-0910 for
newly-sent invitations; the next commit completes the fix.
[greg: rewrote commit message]
This gets used when we call `process_client`, which we generally do at
some kind of login; and in particular, we do in the shared auth
codepath `login_or_register_remote_user`. Add a decorator to make it
easy, and use it on the various views that wind up there.
In particular, this ensures that the `query` is some reasonable
constant corresponding to the view, as intended. When not set, we
fall back in `update_user_activity` on the URL path, but in particular
for `log_into_subdomain` that can now contain a bunch of
request-specific data, which makes it (a) not aggregate properly, and
(b) not even fit in the `CHARACTER VARYING(50)` database field we've
allotted it.
The cookie mechanism only works when passing the login token to a
subdomain. URLs work across domains, which is why they're the
standard transport for SSO on the web. Switch to URLs.
Tweaked by tabbott to add a test for an expired token.
Most of these have more to do with authentication in general than with
registering a new account. `create_preregistration_user` could go
either way; we move it to `auth` so we can make the imports go only in
one direction.
These are just instances that jumped out at me while working on the
subdomains code, mostly while grepping for get_subdomain call sites.
I haven't attempted a comprehensive search, and there are likely
still others left.
If an organization doesn't have the EmailAuthBackend (which allows
password auth) enabled, then our password reset form doesn't do
anything, so we should hide it in the UI.
Since the REALMS_HAVE_SUBDOMAINS migration in development, we've had
scattered reports of users who found trying to open 127.0.0.1:9991
resulting in a redirect loop between zulipdev.com:9991,
zulipdev.com:9991/devlogin, and zulipdev.com:9991/devlogin/, and back
to zulipdev.com:9991.
We fix this temporarily through a small cleanup, which is to have that
last step in the loop send the user to the subdomain where they're
actually logged in, zulip.zulipdev.com:9991.
There's more to be done before this system will make sense, though.
Use this new variable to determine if the user already exists while
doing registration. While doing login through GitHub if we press
*Go back to login*, we pass email using email variable. As a result,
the login page starts showing the "User already exists error" if we
don't change the variable.
Previously, Zulip's server logs would not show which user or client
was involved in login or user registration actions, which made
debugging more annoying than it needed to be.
This allows us to go to Registration form directly. This behaviour is
similar to what we follow in GitHub oAuth. Before this, in registration
flow if an account was not found, user was asked if they wanted to go to
registration flow. This confirmation behavior is followed for login
oauth path.
These handlers will kick into action when is_signup is False. In case
the account exists, the user will be logged in, otherwise, user will
be asked if they want to proceed to registration.
Specifically, this makes easily available to the desktop and mobile
apps data on the server's configuration, including important details
like the realm icon, name, and description.
It deprecates /api/v1/get_auth_backends.
This makes it possible for the Zulip mobile apps to use the normal web
authentication/Oauth flows, so that they can support GitHub, Google,
and other authentication methods we support on the backend, without
needing to write significant custom mobile-app-side code for each
authentication backend.
This PR only provides support for Google auth; a bit more refactoring
would be needed to support this for the GitHub/Social backends.
Modified by tabbott to use the mobile_auth_otp library to protect the
API key.
Show a user friendly message to the user if email is invalid.
Currently we show a generic message:
"Your username or password is incorrect."
The only backend which can accept a non-email username is LDAP.
So we check if it is enabled before showing the custom message.
Django 1.10 has changed the implementation of this function to
match our custom implementation; in addition to this, we prefer
render().
Fixes#1914 via #4093.
This fixes 2 related issues:
* We incorrectly would report authentication methods that are
supported by a server (but have been disabled for a given
realm/subdomain) as supported.
* We did not return an error with an invalid subdomain on a valid
Zulip server.
* We did not return an error when requesting auth backends for the
homepage if SUBDOMAINS_HOMEPAGE is set.
Comes with complete tests.
- Add server version to `fetch_initial_state_data`.
- Add server version to register event queue api endpoint.
- Add server version to `get_auth_backends` api endpoint.
- Change source for server version in `home` endpoint.
- Fix tests.
Fixes#3663
This changes the query for DevAuthBackend so that the shakespearian
users are not omitted while limiting the number of extra users to be
rendered to something reasonable.
Fixes: #3578.
The realm with string_id of "simple" just has three users
named alice, bob, and cindy for now. It is useful for testing
scenarios where realms don't have special zulip.com exception
handling.
The general __init__ file is a more natural home, and where other endpoints
(e.g. create_realm, etc) live.
Also changes forms.ValidationError to django.core.exceptions.ValidationError
to match the rest of the file/codebase.
In Django 1.10, the get_token function returns a salted version of
csrf token which changes whenever get_token is called. This gives
us wrong result when we compare the state after returning from
Google authentication servers. The solution is to unsalt the token
and use that token to find the HMAC so that we get the same value
as long as t he token is same.
Does a database migration to rename Realm.subdomain to
Realm.string_id, and makes Realm.subdomain a property. Eventually,
Realm.string_id will replace Realm.domain as the handle by which we
retrieve Realm objects.
Previously, we used to create one Google OAuth callback url entry
per subdomain. This commit allows us to authenticate subdomain users
against a single Google OAuth callback url entry.
For some reason, we use 'load' function but it doesn't exist in the JWT
library code. This commit updates the code to use the correct interface
of the JWT library.
The signature verification is done by the decode function.
