This commit splits ACL policies into more fine-grained capabilities.
This both drastically simplifies the checking code and makes it possible
to support needed workflows that are not possible with the previous
method. It is backwards compatible; policies containing a "policy"
string are simply converted to a set of capabilities matching previous
behavior.
Fixes#724 (and others).
with a new endpoint '/sys/audit-hash', which returns the given input
string hashed with the given audit backend's hash function and salt
(currently, always HMAC-SHA256 and a backend-specific salt).
In the process of adding the HTTP handler, this also removes the custom
HTTP handlers for the other audit endpoints, which were simply
forwarding to the logical system backend. This means that the various
audit functions will now redirect correctly from a standby to master.
(Tests all pass.)
Fixes#784
This strips out http.DefaultClient everywhere I could immediately find
it. Too many things use it and then modify it in incompatible ways.
Fixes#700, I believe.
marshalled into JSON or displayed from the CLI depending on the output
mode. This allows conferring information such as "no such policy exists"
when creating a token -- not an error, but something the user should be
aware of.
Fixes#676
fields in 'lookup-self'. Importantly, this also makes credential
backends use the SystemView per-backend TTL values and fixes unit tests
to expect this.
Fully fixes#527
In order to implement this efficiently, I have introduced the concept of
"singleton" backends -- currently, 'sys' and 'cubbyhole'. There isn't
much reason to allow sys to be mounted at multiple places, and there
isn't much reason you'd need multiple per-token storage areas. By
restricting it to just one, I can store that particular mount instead of
iterating through them in order to call the appropriate revoke function.
Additionally, because revocation on the backend needs to be triggered by
the token store, the token store's salt is kept in the router and
client tokens going to the cubbyhole backend are double-salted by the
router. This allows the token store to drive when revocation happens
using its salted tokens.
specify more concrete error cases to make their way back up the stack.
Over time there is probably a cleaner way of doing this, but that's
looking like a more massive rewrite and this solves some issues in
the meantime.
Use a CodedError to return a more concrete HTTP return code for
operations you want to do so. Returning a regular error leaves
the existing behavior in place.
