That specific piece of the instructions makes it sound like /auth/ is
surely supposed to be there in the URL. But newer versions of Keycloak
don't have it - so mention that explicitly, not to create a wrong
expectation.
The "nothing else" line is accurate at a high level but more ambigious
than I'd like for sensitive documentation -- we're not trying to make
an extreme claim that we've disabled all forms of short-term logging.
These metadata are essentially all publicily available anyway, and
making uploading them unconditional will simplify some things.
The documentation is not quite accurate in that it claims the server
will upload some metadata that is not actually uploaded yet (but will
by soon). This seems harmless.
The other option would be to run the cron job ourselves, but I feel
like different organizations with different policies might prefer very
different frequencies; daily/hourly, and it's not easy to make that
configurable with a cron file declared in puppet.
Fixes#27866.
The original behavior of this setting was to disable LDAP
authentication for any realms not configured to use it. This was an
arbitrary choice, and its only value was to potentially help catch
typos for users who are lazy about testing their configuration.
Since it makes it a very inconvenient to potentially host multiple
organizations with different LDAP configurations, remove that
behavior.
This makes it possible to send notifications to more than one app ID
from the same server: for example, the main Zulip mobile app and the
new Flutter-based app, which has a separate app ID for use through its
beta period so that it can be installed alongside the existing app.
This fixes the explanation of the setting's syntax to be more precise
(which doesn't mean "easily understandable" - because the setting is
a bit tricky) as well as an example to illustrate it.
nginx sets the value of the `$http_host` variable to the empty string
when using http/3, as there is technically no `Host:` header sent:
https://github.com/nginx-quic/nginx-quic/issues/3
Users with a browser that support http/3 will send their first request
to nginx with http/2, and get an expected HTTP 200 -- but any
subsequent requests will fail with am HTTP 400, since the browser will
have upgraded to http/3, which has an empty `Host` header, which Zulip
rejects.
Switch to the `$host` variable, which works for all HTTP versions.

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.
Users can, quite understandably, assume that upgrading Zulip upgraded
the underlying PostgreSQL version. Though it is mentioned at the top
of the page, mentioning it here clarifies that it is an additional
step.
- Updates instances of "private message", "PM", and "private_message",
excluding historical references in `overview/changelog.md`.
- Also excludes `/docs/translating` since we would need new
translations for "direct messages" and "DMs".
Previously, `X-Forwarded-Proto` did not need to be set, and failure to
set `loadbalancer.ips` would merely result in bad IP-address
rate-limiting and incorrect access logs; after 0935d388f0, however,
failure to do either of those, if Zulip is deployed with `http_only`,
will lead to infinite redirect loops after login. These are
accompanied by a misleading error, from Tornado, of:
Forbidden (Origin checking failed - https://zulip.example.com does not match any trusted origins.): /json/events
This is most common with Docker deployments, where deployments use
another docker container, such as nginx or Traefik, to do SSL
termination. See zulip/docker-zulip#403.
Update the documentation to reinforce that `loadbalancer.ips` also
controls trust of `X-Forwarded-Proto`, and that failure to set it will
cause the application to not function correctly.
04cf68b45e make nginx responsible for downloading (and caching)
files from S3. As noted in that commit, nginx implements its own
non-blocking DNS resolver, since the base syscall is blocking, so
requires an explicit nameserver configuration. That commit used
127.0.0.53, which is provided by systemd-resolved, as the resolver.
However, that service may not always be enabled and running, and may
in fact not even be installed (e.g. on Docker). Switch to parsing
`/etc/resolv.conf` and using the first-provided nameserver. In many
deployments, this will still be `127.0.0.53`, but for others it will
provide a working DNS server which is external to the host.
In the event that a server is misconfigured and has no resolvers in
`/etc/resolv.conf`, it will error out:
```console
Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, No nameservers found in /etc/resolv.conf! Configure one by setting application_server.nameserver in /etc/zulip/zulip.conf (file: /home/zulip/deployments/current/puppet/zulip/manifests/app_frontend_base.pp, line: 76, column: 70) on node example.zulipdev.org
```
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.
