| * | usermanager: Add back temporary is_admin to warn about deprecated API usageMatthew Wild2022-08-151-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Goal: Introduce role-auth with minimal disruption is_admin() is unsafe in a system with per-session permissions, so it has been deprecated. Roll-out approach: 1) First, log a warning when is_admin() is used. It should continue to function normally, backed by the new role API. Nothing is really using per-session authz yet, so there is minimal security concern. The 'strict_deprecate_is_admin' global setting can be set to 'true' to force a hard failure of is_admin() attempts (it will log an error and always return false). 2) In some time (at least 1 week), but possibly longer depending on the number of affected deployments: switch 'strict_deprecate_is_admin' to 'true' by default. It can still be disabled for systems that need it. 3) Further in the future, before the next release, the option will be removed and is_admin() will be permanently disabled.
| * | usermanager: Remove concept of global authz providerMatthew Wild2022-08-121-46/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rationale: - Removes a bunch of code! - We don't have many cases where an actor is not bound to one of our hosts - A notable exception is the admin shell, but if we ever attempt to lock those sessions down, there is a load of other work that also has to be done. And it's not clear if we would need a global authz provider for that anyway. - Removes an extra edge case from the necessary mental model for operators - Sessions that aren't bound to a host generally are anonymous or have an alternative auth model (such as by IP addres). - With the encapsulation now provided by util.roles, ad-hoc "detached roles" can still be created anyway by code that needs them.
| * | usermanager: Fix method name of global authz provider (thanks Zash)Matthew Wild2022-08-121-1/+1

| * | usermanager: Remove obsolete function from global authz providerMatthew Wild2022-08-111-5/+0

| * | features: Add "permissions" feature for role-authMatthew Wild2022-08-111-0/+2
| | |
| * | usermanager: Handle local JIDs being passed to get/set_jid_role()Matthew Wild2022-08-011-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no reasonable fallback for set_jid_role() because users may have multiple roles, so that's an error.
| * | core.usermanager: Add missing stub authz methods to global authz providerKim Alvefur2022-07-201-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | Except, should we have a global authz provider at all?
| * | moduleapi: Stricter type check for actor in permission checkKim Alvefur2022-07-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non-table but truthy values would trigger "attempt to index a foo value" on the next line otherwise
| * | moduleapi: Remove redundant expansion of ':' prefix in permission namesKim Alvefur2022-07-201-1/+0
| | |
| * | moduleapi: Distribute permissions set from global modules to all hostsKim Alvefur2022-07-201-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Roles and permissions will always happen in the context of a host. Prevents error upon indexing since `hosts["*"] == nil`
| * | mod_tokenauth: New API that better fits how modules are using token authMatthew Wild2022-07-201-12/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This also updates the module to the new role API, and improves support for scope/role selection (currently treated as the same thing, which they almost are).
| * | mod_authz_internal: Use util.roles, some API changes and config supportMatthew Wild2022-07-193-95/+146
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit was too awkward to split (hg record didn't like it), so: - Switch to the new util.roles lib to provide a consistent representation of a role object. - Change API method from get_role_info() to get_role_by_name() (touches sessionmanager and usermanager) - Change get_roles() to get_user_roles(), take a username instead of a JID This is more consistent with all other usermanager API methods. - Support configuration of custom roles and permissions via the config file (to be documented).
| * | util.roles: Add new utility module to consolidate role objects and methodsMatthew Wild2022-07-191-0/+100
| | |
| * | usermanager, mod_auth_*: Add get_account_info() returning creation/update timeMatthew Wild2022-07-123-2/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is useful for a number of things. For example, listing users that need to rotate their passwords after some event. It also provides a safer way for code to determine that a user password has changed without needing to set a handler for the password change event (which is a more fragile approach).
| * | core.moduleapi: Expand permission name ':' prefix earlierKim Alvefur2022-06-151-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ensures it applies to the context as string case Somehow this fixes everything
| * | core.moduleapi: Fixup method nameKim Alvefur2022-06-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | `get_user_role()` did not exist anywhere else. MattJ said `get_user_default_role()` was indented
| * | teal-src: update module.d.tl with new access control methodsMatthew Wild2022-06-151-0/+5

| * | Switch to a new role-based authorization framework, removing is_admin()Matthew Wild2022-06-1515-131/+269
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We began moving away from simple "is this user an admin?" permission checks before 0.12, with the introduction of mod_authz_internal and the ability to dynamically change the roles of individual users. The approach in 0.12 still had various limitations however, and apart from the introduction of roles other than "admin" and the ability to pull that info from storage, not much actually changed. This new framework shakes things up a lot, though aims to maintain the same functionality and behaviour on the surface for a default Prosody configuration. That is, if you don't take advantage of any of the new features, you shouldn't notice any change. The biggest change visible to developers is that usermanager.is_admin() (and the auth provider is_admin() method) have been removed. Gone. Completely. Permission checks should now be performed using a new module API method: module:may(action_name, context) This method accepts an action name, followed by either a JID (string) or (preferably) a table containing 'origin'/'session' and 'stanza' fields (e.g. the standard object passed to most events). It will return true if the action should be permitted, or false/nil otherwise. Modules should no longer perform permission checks based on the role name. E.g. a lot of code previously checked if the user's role was prosody:admin before permitting some action. Since many roles might now exist with similar permissions, and the permissions of prosody:admin may be redefined dynamically, it is no longer suitable to use this method for permission checks. Use module:may(). If you start an action name with ':' (recommended) then the current module's name will automatically be used as a prefix. To define a new permission, use the new module API: module:default_permission(role_name, action_name) module:default_permissions(role_name, { action_name[, action_name...] }) This grants the specified role permission to execute the named action(s) by default. This may be overridden via other mechanisms external to your module. The built-in roles that developers should use are: - prosody:user (normal user) - prosody:admin (host admin) - prosody:operator (global admin) The new prosody:operator role is intended for server-wide actions (such as shutting down Prosody). Finally, all usage of is_admin() in modules has been fixed by this commit. Some of these changes were trickier than others, but no change is expected to break existing deployments. EXCEPT: mod_auth_ldap no longer supports the ldap_admin_filter option. It's very possible nobody is using this, but if someone is then we can later update it to pull roles from LDAP somehow.
| * | mod_saslauth: Rename field from 'scope'->'role'Matthew Wild2022-06-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'scope' term derives from OAuth, and represents a bundle of permissions. We're now setting on the term 'role' for a bundle of permissions. This change does not affect any public modules I'm aware of.

| * mod_admin_shell: Switch names for user role management commandsKim Alvefur2022-08-151-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | user:roles() does not convey that this is the mutating command, it should have been called setroles from the start but wasn't due to lack of foresight. This has to accidentally removing roles when wanting to show them.
* | util.stanza: Add method for extracting a single attribute valueKim Alvefur2022-08-173-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sometimes you only care about a single attribute, but the child tag itself may be optional, leading to needing `tag and tag.attr.foo` or `stanza:find("tag@foo")`. The `:find()` method is fairly complex, so avoiding it for this kind of simpler use case is a win.
* | mod_time: Remove obsolete XEP-0090 supportKim Alvefur2022-08-153-15/+3
| | | | | | | | Deprecated even before Prosody even started, obsolete for over a decade.
* | util.datetime: Update Teal interface descriptionKim Alvefur2022-08-171-7/+5
| | | | | | | | Integers were required before, now any number should work.
* | util.datetime: Remove a lineKim Alvefur2022-08-171-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | No idea why the locals were declared on a line by itself. Perhaps line length considerations? But saving 6 characters in width by adding a whole line with 47 characters seems excessive. This is still within the 150 character limit set by .luacheckrc
* | mod_time: Return sub-second precision timestampsKim Alvefur2022-08-141-1/+2
| | | | | | | | Because why not? Who even has this module enabled?
* | mod_storage_sql: Drop archive timestamp precision pending schema updateKim Alvefur2022-08-141-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | The "when" column is an INTEGER which will probably be unhappy about storing higher precision timestamps, so we keep the older behavior for now.
* | mod_mam: Store archives with sub-second precision timestampsKim Alvefur2022-08-143-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes sub-second part of example timestamp to .5 in order to avoid floating point issues. Some clients use timestamps when ordering messages which can lead to messages having the same timestamp ending up in the wrong order. It would be better to preserve the order messages are sent in, which is the order they were stored in.
* | util.datetime: Add support for sub-second precision timestampsKim Alvefur2022-08-143-7/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | Lua since 5.3 raises a fuss when time functions are handed a number with a fractional part and the underlying C functions are all based on integer seconds without support for more precision.
