The original/legacy emoji reactions endpoints made use of HTTP PUT and
didn't have an API that could correctly handle situations where the
emoji names change over time. We stopped using the legacy endpoints
some time ago, so we can remove them now.
This requires straightforward updates to older tests that were still
written against the legacy API.
Fixes#12940.
When creating realm with the ldap backend, the registration flow didn't
properly handle some things - the user wouldn't be set as realm admin,
initial subscriptions and messages weren't created, and the redirect
wasn't happening properly in the case of subdomains.
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.
- Moves "Authentication in the development environment" from subsystems
to "development/authentication.md".
- Moves "Renumbering migrations" to a section within "Schema migrations".
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.
This function is inherited by ZulipLDAPUserPopulator and overriden by
ZulipLDAPAuthBackend, so it's more clear to have it simply defined in
ZulipLDAPUserPopulator directly.
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.
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.
Needed so that the google entry in social_backends in /server_settings
shows the new url rather than the legacy accounts/login/google/ url as
the login url.
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.
Send the `csrftoken` and `sessionid` cookies with `SameSite=Lax`.
This adds a layer of defense against CSRF attacks and matches the new

This can be reverted when we upgrade to Django ≥ 2.1.

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.
login_context now gets the social_backends list through
get_social_backend_dicts and we move display_logo customization
to backend class definition.
This prepares for easily adding multiple IdP support in SAML
authentication - there will be a social_backend dict for each configured
IdP, also allowing display_name and icon customization per IdP.
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.
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.
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.
If the social backend doesn't have get_verified_emails emails, and we
simply grab kwargs["details"].get("email") for the email, we should
still validate it is correct.
Needed for SAML. This will get covered by tests in upcoming commits that
add SAML support.
Previously, while Django code that relied on EXTERNAL_HOST and other
settings would know the Zulip server is actually on port 9991, the
upcoming Django SAML code in python-social-auth would end up detecting
a port of 9992 (the one the Django server is actually listening on).
We fix this using X-Forwarded-Port.
any_oauth_backend_enabled is all about whether we will have extra
buttons on the login/register pages for logging in with some non-native
backends (like Github, Google etc.). And this isn't about specifically
oauth backends, but generally "social" backends - that may not rely
specifically rely on Oauth. This will have more concrete relevance when
SAML authentication is added - which will be a "social" backend,
requiring an additional button, but not Oauth-based.
SOCIAL_AUTH_BACKEND / OAUTH_BACKEND_NAMES are currently the same
backends. All Oauth backends are social, and all social are oauth.
So we get rid of OAUTH_BACKEND_NAMES and use only SOCIAL_AUTH_BACKENDS.
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.

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.
Fixes#9401.
This adds a FAKE_EMAIL_DOMAIN setting, which should be used if
EXTERNAL_HOST is not a valid domain, and something else is needed to
form bot and dummy user emails (if email visibility is turned off).
It defaults to EXTERNAL_HOST.
get_fake_email_domain() should be used to get this value. It validates
that it's correctly set - that it can be used to form valid emails.
If it's not set correctly, an exception is raised. This is the right
approach, because it's undesirable to have the server seemingly
peacefully operating with that setting misconfigured, as that could
mask some hidden sneaky bugs due to UserProfiles with invalid emails,
which would blow up the moment some code that does validate the emails
is called.
Previously, several of our URL patterns accidentally did not end with
`$`, and thus ended up controlling just the stated URL, but actually a
much broader set of URLs starting with it.
I did an audit and fixed what I believe are all instances of this URL
pattern behavior. In the process, I fixed a few tests that were
unintentionally relying on the behavior.
Fixes#13082.
In bf14a0af4, we refactored the Google authentication system to use
the same code as GitHub auth, but neglected to provide a
backwards-compatible URL available for use by older versions of the
mobile apps.
Fixes#13081.
This restructures the API endpoints that we currently have implemented
more or less for exclusive use by the mobile and desktop apps (things
like checking what authentication methods are supported) to use a
system that can be effectively parsed by our test_openapi
documentation.
This brings us close to being able to eliminate
`buggy_documentation_endpoints` as a persistently nonempty list.
For the emails that are associated to an existing account in an
organisation, the avatars will be displayed in the email selection
page. This includes avatar data in what is passed to the page.
Added `avatar_urls` to the context in `test_templates.py`.
Apparently GitHub changed the email address for these; we need to
update our code accordingly.
One cannot receive emails on the username@users.noreply.github.com, so
if someone tries creating an account with this email address, that
person would not be able to verify the account.
We were incorrectly setting LOCAL_UPLOADS_DIR to the empty string in
this code path, which would result in upload files being logged to the
root directory of the repository.

The current code looks like it's trying to redirect /integrations/doc/email
to /integrations when EMAIL_GATEWAY_PATTERN is not set.
I think it doesn't currently do this. The test for that pathway has a bug:
self.get_doc('integrations/doc-html/email', subdomain='zulip') needs a
leading slash, and putting the slash back in results in the test failing.
This redirection is not really desired behavior -- better is to
unconditionally show that the email integration exists, and just point the
user to https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/production/email-gateway.html
(this is done in a child commit).
This commit alone breaks things, needs to be merged with the follow-up
ones.
welcome-bot is removed from the explicit list, because it already is in

This feature is intended to cover all of our ways of exporting a

Additionally, we don't want to include data exports in page_params;

Django’s default FileSystemFinder disallows STATICFILES_DIRS from

This change serves to declutter webhook-errors.log, which is
filled with too many UnexpectedWebhookEventType exceptions.
Keeping UnexpectedWebhookEventType in zerver/lib/webhooks/common.py
led to a cyclic import when we tried to import the exception in
zerver/decorators.py, so this commit also moves this exception to
another appropriate module. Note that our webhooks still import
this exception via zerver/lib/webhooks/common.py.
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.
The test_docs change is because Django runs test cases with DEBUG =
False, which ordinarily means it doesn’t serve /static during tests.

The documentation suggests that you can get the dev server to use
production assets by setting PIPELINE_ENABLED = True, but that
resulted in Django being unable to find any static files because
FileSystemFinder was missing from STATICFILES_FINDERS. Using the
production storage configuration in this case reduces the number of
possible configurations and seems to result in things being less
broken.

appropirate path is created in `setup_test_environment`, while each

This allows a test class to write to `settings.TEST_WORKER_DIR`,

In each url of urls.py, if we want to mark an endpoint as being
intentionally undocumented, then in the kwargs instead of directly
mapping like 'METHOD': 'zerver.views.package.foo', we can provide
a tag called 'intentionally_undocumented' and map like:
'METHOD': ('zerver.views.package.foo', {'intentionally_undocumented'}).
If an endpoint is marked as intentionally undocumented, but we find
some OpenAPI documentation for it then we'll throw an error, in which
case either the 'intentionally_undocumented' tag should be removed or
the faulty documentation should be removed.
This will allow us to mark a REQ variable as intentionally
undocumented. With this, we can remove some of the endpoints marked
as "buggy" even though they're not actually buggy, we just needed to
specify certain parameters as intentionally undocumented (e.g. the
stream_id for the /users/me/subscriptions/muted_topics endpoint.)
Any REQ variable with intentionally_undocumentated set to True
will not be added to the arguments_map data structure.
For some of the other "buggy" endpoints, we would want to mark the
entire endpoint as being undocumented intentionally via. the urls.py
file.
As of commit cff40c557b (#9300), these

It's common for a broken settings.py file to result in Django not
starting, thus never writing to `/var/log/zulip/errors.log`. Such
behavior can be discouraging when the server 500s without a traceback

django.setup(), if raised, and log the exception appropriately.

Previously, our Github authentication backend just used the user's
primary email address associated with GitHub, which was a reasonable
default, but quite annoying for users who have several email addresses
associated with their GitHub account.
We fix this, by adding a new screen where users can select which of
their (verified) GitHub email addresses to use for authentication.
This is implemented using the "partial" feature of the
python-social-auth pipeline system.
Each email is displayed as a button. Clicking on that button chooses
the email. The email value is stored in a hidden input above the
button. The `primary_email` is displayed on top followed by
`verified_non_primary_emails`. Backend name is also passed as
`backend` to the template, which in our case is GitHub.
Fixes#9876.
This fixes an issue that caused LDAP synchronization to fail for
avatars. The problem occurred due to the lack of a 'name' attribute
on the BytesIO object that we pass to the upload backend (which is
only used in the S3 backend for computing Content-Type).
Fixes#12411.
The `AUTH_LDAP_ALWAYS_UPDATE_USER` is `True` by default, and this would sync the
attributes defined in the `AUTH_LDAP_USER_ATTR_MAP` to the user profile. But,
the default code in `django-auth-ldap` would work correctly only for `full_name`
field. This commit disables the setting by default, in favour of using the
`sync_ldap_user_data` script as a cron job.
Since positional arguments are interpreted differently by different
backends in Django's authentication backend system, it’s safer to
disallow them.
This had been the motivation for previously declaring the parameters
with default values when we were on Python 2, but that was not super
effective because Python has no rule against positional default
arguments and that convention for our authentication backends was
solely enforced by code review.

Realm setting to disable avatar changes is already present.
The `AVATAR_CHANGES_DISABLED` setting now follows the same
2-setting model as `NAME_CHANGES_DISABLED`.
The github-services model for how GitHub would send requests to this
legacy integration is no longer available since earlier in 2019.
Removing this integration also allows us to finally remove
authenticated_api_view, the legacy authentication model from 2013 that
had been used for this integration (and other features long since
upgraded).
A few functions that were used by the Beanstalk webhook are moved into
that webhook's implementation directly.
An endpoint was created in zerver/views. Basic rate-limiting was
implemented using RealmAuditLog. The idea here is to simply log each
export event as a realm_exported event. The number of events
occurring in the time delta is checked to ensure that the weekly
limit is not exceeded.
The event is published to the 'deferred_work' queue processor to
prevent the export process from being killed after 60s.
Upon completion of the export the realm admin(s) are notified.
The main point here is that you should use a symlink rather than
changing it, since it's more maintenance work to update our nginx
configuration to use an alternative path than to just create a
symbolic link.

Previously, we had some expensive-to-calculate keys in
zulip_default_context, especially around enabled authentication
backends, which in total were a significant contributor to the

This is a moderate performance optimization for the loading time of
many logged-out pages.

We add rate limiting (max X emails withing Y seconds per realm) to the
email mirror. By creating RateLimitedRealmMirror class, inheriting from
RateLimitedObject, and rate_limit_mirror_by_realm function, following a
mechanism used by rate_limit_user, we're able to have this
implementation mostly rely on the already existing, and proven over
time, rate_limiter.py code. The rules are configurable in settings.py in
RATE_LIMITING_MIRROR_REALM_RULES, analogically to RATE_LIMITING_RULES.
Rate limit verification happens in the MirrorWorker in
queue_processors.py. We don't rate limit missed message emails, as due
to using one time addresses, they're not a spam threat.
test_mirror_worker is adapted to the altered MirrorWorker code and a new
test - test_mirror_worker_rate_limiting is added in test_queue_worker.py
to provide coverage for these changes.
This avoids repeatedly calling a Django auth function that takes a few
hundred microseconds to run in auth_enabled_helper, which itself is
currently called 14 times in every request to pages using
common_context.
This renames references to user avatars, bot avatars, or organization
icons to profile pictures. The string in the UI are updated,
in addition to the help files, comments, and documentation. Actual
variable/function names, changelog entries, routes, and s3 buckets are

When soft deactivation is run for in "auto" mode (no emails are
specified and all users inactive for specified number of days are
deactivated), catch-up is also run in the "auto" mode if
AUTO_CATCH_UP_SOFT_DEACTIVATED_USERS is True.
Automatically catching up soft-deactivated users periodically would
ensure a good user experience for returning users, but on some servers
we may want to turn off this option to save on some disk space.
Fixes#8858, at least for the default configuration, by eliminating
the situation where there are a very large number of messages to recover.
Previously, the LDAP authentication model ignored the realm-level
settings for who can join a realm. This was sort of reasonable at the
time, because the original LDAP auth was an SSO solution that didn't
allow multiple realms, and so one could fully configure authentication
settings on the LDAP side. But now that we allow multiple realms with
the LDAP backend, one could easily imagine wanting different
restrictions on them, and so it makes sense to add this enforcement.
Now that we've more or less stabilized our authentication/registration
subsystem how we want it, it seems worth adding proper documentation
for this.
Fixes#7619.
Earlier the behavior was to raise an exception thereby stopping the

When a bunch of messages with active notifications are all read at
once -- e.g. by the user choosing to mark all messages, or all in a
stream, as read, or just scrolling quickly through a PM conversation
-- there can be a large batch of this information to convey. Doing it
in a single GCM/FCM message is better for server congestion, and for
the device's battery.
The corresponding client-side logic is in zulip/zulip-mobile#3343 .
Existing clients today only understand one message ID at a time; so
accommodate them by sending individual GCM/FCM messages up to an
arbitrary threshold, with the rest only as a batch.
Also add an explicit test for this logic. The existing tests
that happen to cause this function to run don't exercise the
last condition, so without a new test `--coverage` complains.

We started forcing clients to upgrade with commit fb7bfbe9a,
deployed 2018-12-05 to zulipchat.com.
(The mobile app unconditionally makes a request to a route on
zulipchat.com to check for this kind of forced upgrade, so that
applies to mobile users of any Zulip server.)

For Google auth, the multiuse invite key should be stored in the

This endpoint serves requests which might originate from an image
preview link which had an http url and the message holding the image
link was rendered before we introduced thumbnailing. In that case
we would have used a camo proxy to proxy http content over https and
avoid mix content warnings.
In near future, we plan to drop use of camo and just rely on thumbor
to serve such images. This endpoint helps maintain backward
compatibility for links which were already rendered.
This setting splits away part of responsibility from THUMBOR_URL.
Now on, this setting will be responsible for controlling whether
we thumbnail images or not by asking bugdown to render image links
to hit our /thumbnail endpoint. This is irrespective of what
THUMBOR_URL is set to though ideally THUMBOR_URL should be set
to point to a running thumbor instance.
This is somewhat hacky, in that in order to do what we're doing, we
need to parse the HTML of the rendered page to extract the first
paragraph to include in the open graph description field. But
BeautifulSoup does a good job of it.
This carries a nontrivial performance penalty for loading these pages,
but overall /help/ is a low-traffic site compared to the main app, so
it doesn't matter much.
(As a sidenote, it wouldn't be a bad idea to cache this stuff).
There's lots of things we can improve in this, largely through editing
the articles, but we can deal with that over time.

Apparently, Django's get_current_site function (used, e.g., in

A key part of this is the new helper, get_user_by_delivery_email. Its

copy-pasting of get_user (which we'll also want to rename).
Unfortunately, it requires detailed understanding of the context to
figure out which one to use; each is used in about half of call sites.
Another important note is that this PR doesn't migrate get_user calls
in the tests except where not doing so would cause the tests to fail.
This probably deserves a follow-up refactor to avoid bugs here.
This makes it possible to still run the deliver_scheduled_messages
queue worker, even though we're not creating reminder-bot by default
in new organizations.
This reverts commit 2fa77d9d54.
Further investigation has determined that this did not fix the
password-reset problem described in the previous commit message;
meanwhile, it causes other problems. We still need to track down the
root cause of the original password-reset bug.
This adds a web flow and management command for reactivating a Zulip
organization, with confirmation from one of the organization
administrators.
Further work is needed to make the emails nicer (ideally, we'd send
one email with all the admins on the `To` line, but the `send_email`
library doesn't support that).
Fixes#10783.
With significant tweaks to the email text by tabbott.
Realm object is not json-serializable; store the realm id instead
and retrieve the realm in social_auth_finish using
`Realm.objects.get(id=return_data["realm_id"])`.
The email_list returned has the primary email as the first element.
Testing: The order of the emails in the test was changed to put a
verified email before the primary one. The tests would fail without
this commit's change after the changes in the order of test emails.
See https://github.com/zulip/zulip/issues/10856 for details on the bug
here; but basically, users who reset their password were unable to
login until the next time we flushed memcached. The issue disappeared
after stopping using the Django cached_db session engine, so it's
pretty clear that some sort of bug with that session engine
interacting with our password reset logic is the root cause.
Further debugging is required to understand this fully, but for now,
it seems wise to just disable the backend.
The cost of doing so is a small performance decrease, which is likely
acceptable until we can resolve this (it's certainly a more minor
problem than the "Can't login" bug that disabling this removes).
This is a preparatory commit which will help us with removing camo.
In the upcoming commits we introduce a new endpoint which is based
out on the setting CAMO_URI. Since camo could have been hosted on
a different server as well from the main Zulip server, this change
will help us realise in tests how that scenerio might be dealt with.
These lazy imports save a significant amount of time on Zulip's core
import process, because mock imports pbr, which in turn import
pkgresources, which is in turn incredibly slow to import.
Fixes part of #9953.
This is a performance optimization; see the comment. This fixes part
of #9953.
Eventually, we should do the same thing for importing Tornado as well,
but it's less important because Tornado is a much smaller library.
Before, presence information for an entire realm could only be queried via
the `POST /api/v1/users/me/presence` endpoint. However, this endpoint also
updates the presence information for the user making the request. Therefore,
bot users are not allowed to access this endpoint because they don't have
any presence data.
This commit adds a new endpoint `GET /api/v1/realm/presence` that just
returns the presence information for the realm of the caller.
Fixes#10651.
Some admins setting up Zulip's LDAP auth against Active Directory see
a rather baffling error message: "In order to perform this operation a
successful bind must be completed on the connection". This happens
despite AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN and auth_ldap_bind_password being set
perfectly correctly, and on a query that the `ldapsearch` command-line
tool performs quite happily.
Empirically, adding a setting like this to /etc/zulip/settings.py
resolves the issue:
AUTH_LDAP_CONNECTION_OPTIONS = {
ldap.OPT_REFERRALS: 0
}
Some useful, concise background on the LDAP "referral" concept is here:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/jndi/tutorial/ldap/referral/overview.html
and a pertinent bit of docs for the underlying Python `ldap` client:
https://www.python-ldap.org/en/latest/faq.html
and some very helpful documentation for Active Directory:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/ad/referrals
Based on the docs above, the story appears to be something like this:
* This server has the information for part of the scope of our query
-- in particular it happens to have the information we actually want.
* But there are other areas ("subordinate domains") that our query is
in principle asking about, and this server doesn't know if there are
matches there, so it gives us a referral.
* And by default, python-ldap lets `libldap` run ahead and attempt to
bind to those referrals and do those queries too -- which raises an
error because, unlike Microsoft's "LDAP API", it doesn't reuse the
credentials.
So if we simply skip trying to follow the referrals, there's no
error... and we already have, from the original response, the answer
we actually need. That's what the `ldap.OPT_REFERRALS` option does.
There may be more complex situations where the referral really is
relevant, because the desired user info is split across servers. Even
then, unless an anonymous query will be acceptable, there's no point
in letting `libldap` follow the referral and setting this option is
still the right thing. When someone eventually comes to this bridge,
some code will be required to cross it, by following the referrals.
That code might look a bit like this (unfinished) example:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nav/+bug/1209178
Manually tested by tabbott.
Fixes#343, which was effectively a report of the need for this
OPT_REFERRALS setting.
Fixes#349, since with this change, we no longer require tricky manual
configuration to get Active Directory up and running.
The term "username" confusingly refers both to the Django concept of
"username" (meaning "the name the user types into the login form") and
a concept the admin presumably already has in their existing
environment; which may or may not be the same thing, and in fact this
is where we document the admin's choice of whether and how they should
correspond. The Django concept in particular isn't obvious, and is
counterintuitive when it means something like an email address.
Explicitly explain the Django "username" concept, under the name of
"Zulip username" to take responsibility for our choice of how it's
exposed in the settings interface. Then use an explicit qualifier,
like "LDAP username", whenever referring to some other notion of
username. And make a pass over this whole side of the instructions,
in particular for consistent handling of these concepts.
Expand on a few things that tend to confuse people (especially the
`%(user)s` thing); move the `LDAPSearchUnion` example out to docs;
adjust the instructions to fit a bit better in their new docs/ home.
This makes it easier to iterate on these, and to expand supplemental
information (like troubleshooting, or unusual configurations) without
further straining the already-dauntingly-long settings.py.
It also makes it easier to consult the instructions while editing the
secrets file, or testing things, etc. -- most admins will find it more
natural to keep a browser open somewhere than a second terminal.
Fixes part of #10297.
Use FAKE_LDAP_NUM_USERS which specifies the number of LDAP users
instead of FAKE_LDAP_EXTRA_USERS which specified the number of
extra users.
Also use name for selecting form in casper tests
as form with action=new is present in both /new
and /accounts/new/send_confirm/ which breaks
test in CircleCI as
waitWhileVisible('form[action^="/new/"]) never stops
waiting.
This uses the recently introduced active_mobile_push_notification
flag; messages that have had a mobile push notification sent will have
a removal push notification sent as soon as they are marked as read.
Note that this feature is behind a setting,
SEND_REMOVE_PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS, since the notification format is not
supported by the mobile apps yet, and we want to give a grace period
before we start sending notifications that appear as (null) to
clients. But the tracking logic to maintain the set of message IDs
with an active push notification runs unconditionally.
This is designed with at-least-once semantics; so mobile clients need
to handle the possibility that they receive duplicat requests to
remove a push notification.
We reuse the existing missedmessage_mobile_notifications queue
processor for the work, to avoid materially impacting the latency of
marking messages as read.
Fixes#7459, though we'll need to open a follow-up issue for
using these data on iOS.
This uses the MockLDAP class of fakeldap to fake a ldap server, based
on the approach already used in the tests in `test_auth_backends.py`.
Adds the following settings:
- FAKE_LDAP_MODE: Lets user choose out of three preset configurations.
The default mode if someone erases the entry in settings is 'a'. The
fake ldap server is disable if this option is set to None.
- FAKE_LDAP_EXTRA_USERS: Number of extra users in LDAP directory beyond
the default 8.
Fixes#9934.
Generates ldap_dir based on the mode and the no. of extra users.
It supports three modes, 'a', 'b' and 'c', description for which
can be found in prod_settings_templates.py.
That value is necessary to configure anonymous binds in
django-auth-ldap, which are useful when we're using LDAP just to
populate the user database.
Fixes#10257.
This lets us have a slightly cleaner interface for cases where we need
a custom default value than an `or None` in the definition (which
might cause issues with other falsey values).
The autenticate function now follows the signature of
Django 2.0 https://github.com/django-auth-ldap/
django-auth-ldap/commit/27a8052b26f1d3a43cdbcdfc8e7dc0322580adae
Also AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_GROUPS is depricated in favor of
AUTH_LDAP_CACHE_TIMEOUT.
We already had a setting for whether these logs were enabled; now it
also controls which stream the messages go to.
As part of this migration, we disable the feature in dev/production by
default; it's not useful for most environments.
Fixes the proximal data-export issue reported in #10078 (namely, a
stream with nobody ever subscribed to having been created).
As part of our effort to change the data model away from each user
having a single API key, we're eliminating the couple requests that
were made from Django to Tornado (as part of a /register or home
request) where we used the user's API key grabbed from the database
for authentication.
Instead, we use the (already existing) internal_notify_view
authentication mechanism, which uses the SHARED_SECRET setting for
security, for these requests, and just fetch the user object using
get_user_profile_by_id directly.
Tweaked by Yago to include the new /api/v1/events/internal endpoint in
the exempt_patterns list in test_helpers, since it's an endpoint we call
through Tornado. Also added a couple missing return type annotations.
Input pills require a contenteditable div with a class named input
to fall inside the pill container. On converting the input tag into
a div, the size of the input decreases which is compensated by a
line-height of 40px. Comment above letter-spacing:normal was removed
as chrome and firefox do not change the letter-spacing to normal
for a div via the default browser stylesheet.
NOTE: Currently writing something into the div will call the action
corresponding to that key in the keyboard shortcuts. The input will
work fine once the pills have been initiated.
For the casper tests, for now, we just use the legacy search code.
When we change that, $.val() cannot be used on contenteditable div, so
$.html() will need to be used instead in select_item_via_typeahead.
This setting isn't intended to exist long term, but instead to make it
possible to merge our search pills code before we're ready to cut over
production environments to use it.
Various pieces of our thumbor-based thumbnailing system were already
merged; this adds the remaining pieces required for it to work:
* a THUMBOR_URL Django setting that controls whether thumbor is
enabled on the Zulip server (and if so, where thumbor is hosted).
* Replaces the overly complicated prototype cryptography logic
* Adds a /thumbnail endpoint (supported both on web and mobile) for
accessing thumbnails in messages, designed to support hosting both
external URLs as well as uploaded files (and applying Zulip's
security model for access to thumbnails of uploaded files).
* Modifies bugdown to, when THUMBOR_URL is set, render images with the
`src` attribute pointing /thumbnail (to provide a small thumbnail
for the image), along with adding a "data-original" attribute that
can be used to access the "original/full" size version of the image.
There are a few things that don't work quite yet:
* The S3 backend support is incomplete and doesn't work yet.
* The error pages for unauthorized access are ugly.
* We might want to rename data-original and /thumbnail?size=original
to use some other name, like "full", that better reflects the fact
that we're potentially not serving the original image URL.
In this commit we add a new endpoint so as to have a way of fetching
topic history for a given stream id without having to be logged in.
This can only happen if the said stream is web public otherwise we
just return an empty topics list. This endpoint is quite analogous
to get_topics_backend which is used by our main web app.
In this commit we also do a bit of duplication regarding the query
responsible for fetching all the topics from DB. Basically this
query is exactly the same as what we have in the
get_topic_history_for_stream function in actions.py. Basically
duplicating now is the right thing to do because this query is
really gonna change when we add another criteria for filtering
messages which is:
Only topics for messages which were sent during the period the
corresponding stream was web public should be returned.
Now when we will do this, the query will change and thus it won't
really be a code duplication!
This commits adds the necessary puppet configuration and
installer/upgrade code for installing and managing the thumbor service
in production. This configuration is gated by the 'thumbor.pp'
manifest being enabled (which is not yet the default), and so this
commit should have no effect in a default Zulip production environment
(or in the long term, in any Zulip production server that isn't using
thumbor).
Credit for this effort is shared by @TigorC (who initiated the work on
this project), @joshland (who did a great deal of work on this and got
it working during PyCon 2017) and @adnrs96, who completed the work.
This adds a new settings, SOCIAL_AUTH_SUBDOMAIN, which specifies which
domain should be used for GitHub auth and other python-social-auth
backends.
If one is running a single-realm Zulip server like chat.zulip.org, one
doesn't need to use this setting, but for multi-realm servers using
social auth, this fixes an annoying bug where the session cookie that
python-social-auth sets early in the auth process on the root domain
ends up masking the session cookie that would have been used to
determine a user is logged in. The end result was that logging in
with GitHub on one domain on a multi-realm server like zulipchat.com
would appear to log you out from all the others!
We fix this by moving python-social-auth to a separate subdomain.
Fixes: #9847.
In this commit we are fixing a kinda serious un-noticed bug with
the way run_db_migrations worked for test db.
Basically run_db_migrations runs new migrations on db (dev or test).
When we talk about the dev platform this process is straight forward.
We have a single DB zulip which was once created and now has some data.
Introduction of new migration causes a schema change or does something
else but bottom line being we just migrate the zulip DB and stuff works
fine.
Now coming to zulip test db (zulip_test) situation is a bit complex
in comparision to dev db. Basically this is because we make use of
what we call zulip_test_template to make test fixture restoration
after tests run fast. Now before we introduced the performance
optimisation of just doing migrations when possible, introduction of
a migration would ideally result in provisioning do a full rebuild of
the test database. When that used to happen sequence of events used to
be something like this:
* Create a zulip_test db from zulip_test_base template (An absolute
basic schema holding)
* Migrate and populate the zulip_test db.
* Create/Re-create zulip_test_template from the latest zulip_test.
Now after we introduced just do migrations instead of full db rebuild
when possible, what used to happen was that zulip_test db got
successfully migrated but when test suites would run they would try to
create zulip_test from zulip_test_template (so that individual tests
don't affect each other on db level).
This is where the problem resides; zulip_test_template wasn't migrated
and we just scrapped zulip_test and re-created it using
zulip_test_template as a template and hence zulip_test will not hold the
latest schema.
This is what we fix in this commit.
This commit moves all files previously under the 'app' bundle in
the Django pipeline to being compiled by webpack under the 'app'
entry point. In the process, it moves assets under the app entry
to a file called app.js that consumes all relevant css and js files.
This commit also edits the webpack config to be able to expose certain
variables for third party libraries that are currently required by
some modules. This is bad coding form and should be refactored to
requiring whatever dependencies a module may have; we're just
deferring that to the future to simplify the series of transitions we
need to do here. The variable exposure is done using expose-loader in
webpack.
The app/index.html template is edited to override the newly introduced
'commonjs' block in the base template. This is done as a temporary
measure so as not to disrupt other pages on the app during the transition.
It also fixes the value of the 'this' context that was being inferred
as window by third party libraries. This is done using imports-loader
in the webpack config. This is also messy and probably isn't how we
want things to work long term.
We need to do a small monkey-patching of python-social-auth to ensure
that it doesn't 500 the request when a user does something funny in
their browser (e.g. using the back button in the auth flow) that is
fundamentally a user error, not a server error.
This was present in the pre-rewrite version of our Social auth
codebase, without clear documentation; I've fixed the explanation
part here.
It's perhaps worth investigating with the core social auth team
whether there's a better way to do this.
It's possible to make GitHub social authentication support letting the
user pick which of their verified email addresses to pick, using the
python-social-auth pipeline feature. We need to add an additional
screen to let the user pick, so we're not adding support for that now,
but this at least migrates this to use the data set of all emails that
have been verified as associated with the user's GitHub account (and
we just assume the user wants their primary email).
This also fixes the inability for very old GitHub accounts (where the
`email` field in the details might be a string the user wanted on
their GitHub profile page) to using GitHub auth to login.
Fixes#9127.
Adds search_pill.js to the static asset pipeline. The items
for search pill contain 2 keys, display_value and search_string.
Adding all the operator information i.e the operator, operand and
negated fields along with the search_string and description was tried out.
It was dropped because it didn't provide any advantage as one had to
always calculate the search_string and the description from the operator.
This fixes an important issue where the realm_users cache could grow
beyond 1MB when a Zulip server had more than about 10K users. The
result was that Zulip would start 500ing with that size of userbase.
There are probably better long-term fixes, but because the realm_users
data set caches well, this change should be sufficient to let us
handle to 50-100K users or more on that metric (though at some point,
we'll start having other problems interacting with the realm_users
data set).
This new implementation model is a lot cleaner and should extend
better to the non-oauth backend supported by python-social-auth (since
we're not relying on monkey-patching `do_auth` in the OAuth backend
base class).
This adds a /ping command that will be useful for users
to see what the round trip to the Zulip server is (including
only a tiny bit of actual server time to basically give a
200).
It also introduce the "/zcommand" endpoint and zcommand.js
module.
The previous logic made it look like catching ZulipLDAPException on
the authenticate() line was possible, but it isn't, because that
exception is actually being handled inside django-auth-ldap's
authenticate method.
Previously, if you had LDAPAuthBackend enabled, we basically blocked
any other auth backends from working at all, by requiring the user's
login flow include verifying the user's LDAP password.
We still want to enforce that in the case that the account email
matches LDAP_APPEND_DOMAIN, but there's a reasonable corner case:
Having effectively guest users from outside the LDAP domain.
We don't want to allow creating a Zulip-level password for a user
inside the LDAP domain, so we still verify the LDAP password in that
flow, but if the email is allowed to register (due to invite or
whatever) but is outside the LDAP domain for the organization, we
allow it to create an account and set a password.
For the moment, this solution only covers EmailAuthBackend. It's
likely that just extending the list of other backends we check for in
the new conditional on `email_auth_backend` would be correct, but we
haven't done any testing for those cases, and with auth code paths,
it's better to disallow than allow untested code paths.
Fixes#9422.
Previously, if both EmailAuthBackend and LDAPAuthBackend were enabled,
LDAP users could set a password using EmailAuthBackend and continue to
use that password, even if their LDAP account was later deactivated.
That configuration wasn't supported at all before, so this doesn't fix
a pre-existing security issue, but now that we're making that a valid
configuration, we need to cover this case.
A "zform" knows how to render data that follows our
schema for widget messages with form elements like
buttons and choices.
This code won't be triggered until a subsequent
server-side commit takes widget_content from
API callers such as the trivial chat bot and
creates submessages for us.
This starts the concept of a schema checker, similar to
zerver/lib/validator.py on the server. We can use this
to validate incoming data. Our server should filter most
of our incoming data, but it's useful to have client-side
checking to defend against things like upgrade
regressions (i.e. what if we change the name of the field
on the server side without updating all client uses).
The only purpose of this commit is to make the django templates
of Two Factor Auth work. We probably won't need this commit once
we upgrade the admin backend of Two Factor Auth to use handlebar
templates.
This commit improves the output that blueslip produces while
showing error stack traces on the front-end. This is done by
using a library called error-stack-parser to format the stack
traces.
This commit also edits the webpack config to use a different
devtool setting since the previous one did not support sourcemaps
within stack traces. It also removes a plugin that was obviated
by this change.
We add conditional infinite sleep to this delivery job as a means to
handle case of multiple servers in service to a realm running this
job. In such a scenerio race conditions might arise leading to
multiple deliveries for same message. This way we try to match the
behaviour of what other jobs do in such a case.
Note: We should eventually do something to make such jobs work
while being running on multiple servers.
Slow queries during backend tests sends messages to Error Bot
which affects the database state causing the tests to fail.
This fixes the occasional flakes due to that.
This commit lays the foundation to handle submessages for
plugin widgets. Right now it just logs events, but subsequent
commits will add widget functionality.
This moves the documentation for this feature out of
prod_settings_template.py, so that we can edit it more easily.
We also add a bucket policy, which is part of what one would want to
use this in production.
This addresses much, but not all, of #9361.
We don't reference this anymore (it was only ever used by the Dropbox
integration, which was hardcoded-off for years before being removed in
e6833b6427)
This fixes exceptions when sending PMs in development (where we were
trying to connect to the localhost push bouncer, which we weren't
authorized for, but even if we were, it wouldn't work, since there's
no APNS/GCM certs).
At the same time, we also set and order of operations that ensures one
has the opportunity to adjust the server URL before submitting
anything to us.
Most of this was straightforward.
Most functions that were grabbed verbatim and whole from
the original class still have one-line wrappers.
Many functions are just-the-data versions of functions that
remain in MessageList: see add, append, prepend, remove as
examples. In a typical pattern the MessageList code becomes
super simple:
prepend: function MessageList_prepend(messages) {
var viewable_messages = this.data.prepend(messages);
this.view.prepend(viewable_messages);
},
Two large functions had some minor surgery:
triage_messages =
top half of add_messages +
API to pass three lists back
change_message_id =
original version +
two simple callbacks to list
For the function update_muting_and_rerender(), we continue
to early-exit if this.muting_enabled is false, and we copied
that same defensive check to the new function
named update_items_for_muting(), even though it's technically
hidden from that codepath by the caller.
This commit moves the stylesheets under the archive bundle in
the Django pipeline to being compiled by webpack instead. It
also removes a remaining call to a portico stylesheet that no
longer exists.
This commit transitions landing-page.css from the Django pipeline
to being compiled by webpack as landing-page.scss under the
'landing-page' and 'integration' bundles.
This commit transitions all styles in app.css in the Django pipeline
to being compiled by webpack in an app-styles bundle, and renames the
various files to now be processed as SCSS.
To implement this transition, we move the old CSS file refernces in
settings.py and replace them with a bundle declared in
`webpack.assets.json` and includedn in the index.html template
Tweaked by tabbott to keep the list of files in `app.css` in
`webpack.assets.json`, and to preserve the ordering from the old
`settings.py`.
This commit removes the need for portico.css to be generated
by the Django pipeline and makes the error page use the css
file compiled by webpack instead.
We haven't seen significant traffic from the legacy desktop app in
over a year, and users using it get a warning to upgrade since last
summer, so it's probably OK to stop providing special fonts for it.
This introduces a generic class called list_cursor to handle the
main details of navigating the buddy list and wires it into
activity.js. It replaces some fairly complicated code that
was coupled to stream_list and used lots of jQuery.
The new code interacts with the buddy_list API instead of jQuery
directly. It also persists the key across redraws, so we don't
lose our place when a focus ping happens or we type more characters.
Note that we no longer cycle to the top when we hit the bottom, or
vice versa. Cycling can be kind of an anti-feature when you want to
just lay on the arrow keys until they hit the end.
The changes to stream_list.js here do not affect the left sidebar;
they only remove code that was used for the right sidebar.
This was a bit more than moving code. I extracted the
following things:
$widget (and three helper methods)
$input
text()
empty()
expand_column
close_widget
activity.clear_highlight
There was a minor bug before this commit, where we were inconsistent
about trimming spaces. The introduction of text() and empty() should
prevent bugs where users type the space bar into search.
static/styles/scss/portico.scss is now compiled by webpack
and supports SCSS syntax.
Changed the server-side templates to render the portico-styles
bundle instead of directly requiring the portico stylesheet. This
allows webpack to handle stylesheet compilation and minification.
We use the mini-css-extract-plugin to extract out css from the
includes in webpack and let webpacks production mode handle
minification. Currently we're not able to use it for dev mode
because it does not support HMR so we use style-loader instead.
Once the plugin supports HMR we can go on to use it for both
dev and prod.
The downside of this is that when reloading pages in the development
environment, there's an annoying flash of unstyled content :(.
It is now possible to make a change in any of the styles included
by static/styles/scss/portico.scss and see the code reload live
in the browser. This is because style-loader which we currently
use has the module.accept code built-in.
This shouldn't have a material performance impact, since we don't
query these except during login, and meanwhile this fixes an issue
where users needed to restart memcached (which usually manifested as
"needing to reboot the whole server" after updating their LDAP
configuration before a user who was migrated from one OU to another
could login).
Fixes#9057.
The code in maybe_send_to_registration incorrectly used the
`get_realm_from_request` function to fetch the subdomain. This usage
was incorrect in a way that should have been irrelevant, because that
function only differs if there's a logged-in user, and in this code
path, a user is never logged in (it's the code path for logged-out
users trying to sign up).
This this bug could confuse unit tests that might run with a logged-in
client session. This made it possible for several of our GitHub auth
tests to have a totally invalid subdomain value (the root domain).
Fixing that bug in the tests, in turn, let us delete a code path in
the GitHub auth backend logic in `backends.py` that is impossible in
production, and had just been left around for these broken tests.
This is done mainly because this backend has the simplest code path
for calling login_or_register_remote_user, more than because we expect
this case to come up. It'll make it easier to write unit tests for
the `invalid_subdomain` corner case.
