This commit refactors the direct external upload routes (get presigned
put, complete external, create/abort/complete multipart) into a
helper which is then included in both BackupController and the
UploadController. This is done so UploadController doesn't need
strange backup logic added to it, and so each controller implementing
this helper can do their own validation/error handling nicely.
This is a follow up to e4350bb966
Currently, Discourse rate limits all incoming requests by the IP address they
originate from regardless of the user making the request. This can be
frustrating if there are multiple users using Discourse simultaneously while
sharing the same IP address (e.g. employees in an office).
This commit implements a new feature to make Discourse apply rate limits by
user id rather than IP address for users at or higher than the configured trust
level (1 is the default).
For example, let's say a Discourse instance is configured to allow 200 requests
per minute per IP address, and we have 10 users at trust level 4 using
Discourse simultaneously from the same IP address. Before this feature, the 10
users could only make a total of 200 requests per minute before they got rate
limited. But with the new feature, each user is allowed to make 200 requests
per minute because the rate limits are applied on user id rather than the IP
address.
The minimum trust level for applying user-id-based rate limits can be
configured by the `skip_per_ip_rate_limit_trust_level` global setting. The
default is 1, but it can be changed by either adding the
`DISCOURSE_SKIP_PER_IP_RATE_LIMIT_TRUST_LEVEL` environment variable with the
desired value to your `app.yml`, or changing the setting's value in the
`discourse.conf` file.
Requests made with API keys are still rate limited by IP address and the
relevant global settings that control API keys rate limits.
Before this commit, Discourse's auth cookie (`_t`) was simply a 32 characters
string that Discourse used to lookup the current user from the database and the
cookie contained no additional information about the user. However, we had to
change the cookie content in this commit so we could identify the user from the
cookie without making a database query before the rate limits logic and avoid
introducing a bottleneck on busy sites.
Besides the 32 characters auth token, the cookie now includes the user id,
trust level and the cookie's generation date, and we encrypt/sign the cookie to
prevent tampering.

* Revert "DEV: increase lock timeout for multisite migration (#14831)"
This partially reverts commit 337ef60303.
We need to revert the mutex around `db:status:json` because the mutex is not available unless the rails environment is loaded which the `db:status:json` doesn't load before the mutex. We can't load the environment before entering the mutex because the mutex is meant to prevent other instances of the task from loading a rails environment while the database is migrating.

This PR introduces a new `enable_experimental_backup_uploads` site setting (default false and hidden), which when enabled alongside `enable_direct_s3_uploads` will allow for direct S3 multipart uploads of backup .tar.gz files.
To make multipart external uploads work with both the S3BackupStore and the S3Store, I've had to move several methods out of S3Store and into S3Helper, including:
* presigned_url
* create_multipart
* abort_multipart
* complete_multipart
* presign_multipart_part
* list_multipart_parts
Then, S3Store and S3BackupStore either delegate directly to S3Helper or have their own special methods to call S3Helper for these methods. FileStore.temporary_upload_path has also removed its dependence on upload_path, and can now be used interchangeably between the stores. A similar change was made in the frontend as well, moving the multipart related JS code out of ComposerUppyUpload and into a mixin of its own, so it can also be used by UppyUploadMixin.
Some changes to ExternalUploadManager had to be made here as well. The backup direct uploads do not need an Upload record made for them in the database, so they can be moved to their final S3 resting place when completing the multipart upload.
This changeset is not perfect; it introduces some special cases in UploadController to handle backups that was previously in BackupController, because UploadController is where the multipart routes are located. A subsequent pull request will pull these routes into a module or some other sharing pattern, along with hooks, so the backup controller and the upload controller (and any future controllers that may need them) can include these routes in a nicer way.
PERF: Update like count in visible posts without an extra GET per like
Currently when a user is reading a topic and some post in it receive a
like from another user, the Ember app will be notified via MessageBus
and issue a GET to `/posts/{id}` to get the new like count. This worked
fine for us until today, but it can easily create a self-inflicted DDoS
when a topic with a large number of visitors gets a large number of
likes, since we will issue `visitors * likes` GET requests requests.
This patch optimizes this flow, by sending the new like count down in
the MessageBus notification, removing any need for the extra request.
It shouldn't cause any drift on the count because we send down the full
count instead of the difference too.
Possible follow-ups could include handling like removal.
We are only using list_multipart_parts right now in the
uploads controller for multipart uploads to check if the
upload exists; thus we don't need up to 1000 parts.
Also adding a note for future explorers that list_multipart_parts
only gets 1000 parts max, and adding params for max parts
and starting parts.
Support for invites alongside DiscourseConnect was added in 355d51af. This commit fixes the guardian method so that the bulk invite button functionality also works.
* FIX: Preserve field types when updating revision
When a post was edited quickly twice by the same user, the old post
revision was updated with the newest changes. To check if the change
was reverted (i.e. rename topic A to B and then back to A) a comparison
of the initial value and last value is performed. If the check passes
then the intermediary value is dismissed and only the initial value and
the last ones are preserved. Otherwise, the modification is dismissed
because the field returned to its initial value.
This used to work well for most fields, but failed for "tags" because
the field is an array and the values were transformed to strings to
perform the comparison.
* FIX: Reset last_editor_id if revision is reverted
If a post was revised and then the same revision was reverted,
last_editor_id was still set to the ID of the user who last edited the
post. This was a problem because the same person could then edit the
same post again and because it was the same user and same post, the
system attempted to update the last one (that did not exist anymore).
This commit introduces a new s3:ensure_cors_rules rake task
that is run as a prerequisite to s3:upload_assets. This rake
task calls out to the S3CorsRulesets class to ensure that
the 3 relevant sets of CORS rules are applied, depending on
site settings:
* assets
* direct S3 backups
* direct S3 uploads
This works for both Global S3 settings and Database S3 settings
(the latter set directly via SiteSetting).
As it is, only one rule can be applied, which is generally
the assets rule as it is called first. This commit changes
the ensure_cors! method to be able to apply new rules as
well as the existing ones.
This commit also slightly changes the existing rules to cover
direct S3 uploads via uppy, especially multipart, which requires
some more headers.
FinalDestination's follow_canonical mode used for embedded topics should work when canonical URLs are relative, as specified in [RFC 6596](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6596)
We are no longer able to display the image returned by Instagram directly within a Discourse site (either in the composer, or within a cooked post within a topic), so:
- Display an image placeholder in the composer preview
- A cooked post should use an iframe to display the Instagram 'embed' content
The `白名单` term becomes `名单 白名单` after it is processed by
cppjieba in :query mode. However, `白名单` is not tokenized as such by cppjieba when it
appears in a string of text. Therefore, this may lead to failed matches as
the search data generated while indexing may not contain all of the
terms generated by :query mode. We've decided to maintain parity for now
such that both indexing and querying uses the same :mix mode. This may
lead to less accurate search but our plan is to properly support CJK
search in the future.
In preparation for adding automatic CORS rules creation
for direct S3 uploads, I am adding tests here and moving the
CORS rule definitions into a dedicated class so they are all
in the one place.
There is a problem with ensure_cors! as well -- if there is
already a CORS rule defined (presumably the asset one) then
we do nothing and do not apply the new rule. This means that
the S3BackupStore.ensure_cors method does nothing right now
if the assets rule is already defined, and it will mean the
same for any direct S3 upload rules I add for uppy. We need
to be able to add more rules, not just one.
This is not a problem on our hosting because we define the
rules at an infra level.
If the initial `get`/`head` response within `resolve` returns a status code of `103`, attempt to fetch the same URL with the alternative `small_get` method.
* FIX: allowed_theme_ids should not be persisted in GlobalSettings
It was observed that the memoized value of `GlobalSetting.allowed_theme_ids` would be persisted across requests, which could lead to unpredictable/undesired behaviours in a multisite environment.
This change moves that logic out of GlobalSettings so that the returned theme IDs are correct for the current site.
Uses get_set_cache, which ultimately uses DistributedCache, which will take care of multisite issues for us.
* DEV: Sanitize HTML admin inputs
This PR adds on-save HTML sanitization for:
Client site settings
translation overrides
badges descriptions
user fields descriptions
I used Rails's SafeListSanitizer, which [accepts the following HTML tags and attributes](018cf54073/lib/rails/html/sanitizer.rb (L108))
* Make sure that the sanitization logic doesn't corrupt settings with special characters
This PR doesn't change any behavior, but just removes code that wasn't in use. This is a pretty dangerous place to change, since it gets called during user's registration. At the same time the refactoring is very straightforward, it's clear that this code wasn't doing any work (it still needs to be double-checked during review though). Also, the test coverage of UserNameSuggester is good.
* PERF: Remove JOIN on categories for PM search
JOIN on categories is not needed when searchin in private messages as
PMs are not categorized.
* DEV: Use == for string comparison
* PERF: Optimize query for allowed topic groups
There was a query that checked for all topics a user or their groups
were allowed to see. This used UNION between topic_allowed_users and
topic_allowed_groups which was very inefficient. That was replaced with
a OR condition that checks in either tables more efficiently.
By default, Rails only includes the Vary:Accept header in responses when the Accept: header is included in the request. This means that proxies/browsers may cache a response to a request with a missing Accept header, and then later serve that cached version for a request which **does** supply the Accept header. This can lead to some very unexpected behavior in browsers.
This commit adds the Vary:Accept header for all requests, even if the Accept header is not present in the request. If a format parameter (e.g. `.json` suffix) is included in the path, then the Accept header is still omitted. (The format parameter takes precedence over any Accept: header, so the response is no longer varies based on the Accept header)
Searching within a topic currently does not make use of PG search and
we're simply doing an `ilike` against the post raw. Furthermore,
`Post#post_number` is already unique within a topic so the other
ordering will never ever be used. This change simply makes the query
cleaner to read.
This new app event will fire whenever a bookmark is created,
edited, or deleted for a post or topic, and replaces these old
app events which had inconsistent APIs:
* page:bookmark-post-toggled
* topic:bookmark-toggled
When the event is triggered, the arguments are in this order:
1. bookmark - The bookmark record created or changed. Will be null
if the bookmark was deleted.
2. target - Object with target (post or topic) and targetId (post ID
or topic ID)
User API keys (not the same thing as admin API keys) are currently
leaked to redis when rate limits are applied to them since redis is the
backend for rate limits in Discourse and the API keys are included in
the redis keys that are used to track usage of user API keys in the last
24 hours.
This commit stops the leak by using a SHA-256 representation of the user
API key instead of the key itself to form the redis key.
We don't need to manually delete the existing redis keys that contain
unhashed user API keys because they're not long-lived and will be
automatically deleted within 48 hours after this commit is deployed to
your Discourse instance.
This removes all custom controllers and redis/messagebus logic from discourse-presence, and replaces it with core's new PresenceChannel system.
All functionality should be retained. This implementation should scale much better to large numbers of users, reduce the number of HTTP requests made by clients, and reduce the volume of messages on the MessageBus.
For more information on PresenceChannel, see 31db8352
Instead of leaking ordering of the posts all around the class, we
centralize it in a method making the code easier to understand. In a
future PR, we will also introduce a plugin API to allow custom ordering
and the change in this commit helps to faciliate that.
The method was only used for mega topics but it was redundant as the
first post can be determined from using the condition where
`Post#post_number` equal to one.
`/u/username/invited.json?filter=expired` and `/u/username/invited.json?filter=pending` APIs are already returning data to admins. However, the `can_see_invite_details?` boolean was false, which prevented the Ember frontend from showing the tabs correctly. This commit updates the guardian method to match reality.
Sometimes administrators want to permanently delete posts and topics
from the database. To make sure that this is done for a good reasons,
administrators can do this only after one minute has passed since the
post was deleted or immediately if another administrator does it.
When a tag with alot of topics is used, we end up allocating a Ruby
array of all the topic ids. Instead, we can just use a subquery here and
handle all of the exclusion logic in PG.

We don't want to be using emails as source for username and name suggestions in cases when it's possible that a user have no chance to intervene and correct a suggested username. It risks exposing email addresses.
* FIX: Remove List-Post email header
This header is used for mailing lists and can confuse some email clients
such as Thunderbird to display wrong replying options.
* FIX: Replace reply_key in email custom headers
Admins can add custom email headers from site settings. Email sender
will try to replace the reply key if %{reply_key} exists or remove the
header if a reply key does not exist.
Invite is used in two contexts, when inviting a new user to the forum
and when inviting an existent user to a topic. The first case is more
complex and it involves permission checks to ensure that new users can
be created. In the second case, it is enough to ensure that the topic
is visible for both users and that all preconditions are met.
One edge case is the invite to topic via email functionality which
checks for both conditions because first the user must be invited to
create an account first and then to the topic.
A side effect of these changes is that all site settings related to
invites refer to inviting new users only now.
We aren't translating these settings, so it makes more sense to move them into the code. I added an instance method so plugins can add mappings for custom reasons.
- Allow the `/presence/get` endpoint to return multiple channels in a single request (limited to 50)
- When multiple presence channels are initialized in a single Ember runloop, batch them into a single GET request
- Introduce the `presence-pretender` to allow easy testing of PresenceChannel-related features
- Introduce a `use_cache` boolean (default true) on the the server-side PresenceChannel initializer. Useful during testing.
This commit fixes the `eval` and `evalsha` commands/methods and any other methods that don't have a wrapper in `DiscourseRedis` and expect keyword arguments. I noticed this problem in Logster when I was trying to fetch some log messages in JSON format using the rails console and saw the messages were missing the `env` field. Logster uses the `eval` command to fetch messages `env`s:
dc351fd00f/lib/logster/redis_store.rb (L250-L253)
and that code was not fetching anything because `DiscourseRedis` didn't pass the `keys` keyword arg to the redis gem.
Usually, when an email is received a user lookup is performed using the
email address found in the `From` header. When an email has an
`X-Original-From` header, if it is equal to `Reply-To` then it uses that
one instead. The comparison was sensitive to whitespaces and other
insignificant characters such as quotes because it reconstructed the
`From` header.
For the fixture added in this commit, it compared the reconstructed
`From` header `John Doe <johndoe@example.com>` with the `Reply-To`
header `"John Doe" <johndoe@example.com>`.
* DEV: Remove HTML setting type and sanitization logic.
We concluded that we don't want settings to contain HTML, so I'm removing the setting type and sanitization logic. Additionally, we no longer allow the global-notice text to contain HTML.
I searched for usages of this setting type in the `all-the-plugins` repo and found none, so I haven't added a migration for existing settings.
* Mark Global notices containing links as HTML Safe.
FinalDestination now supports the `follow_canonical` option, which will perform an initial GET request, parse the canonical link if present, and perform a HEAD request to it.
We use this mode during embeds to avoid treating URLs with different query parameters as different topics.
Previously, while retrieving each upload urls in a post S3 CDN urls with different path in prefix (external urls technically) are considered as uploaded url. It created issue while checking missing uploads.
This commit resolves refactors can_invite_to? to use
can_invite_to_forum? for checking the site-wide permissions and then
perform topic specific checkups.
Similarly, can_invite_to? is always used with a topic object and this is
now enforced.
There was another problem before when `must_approve_users` site setting
was not checked when inviting users to forum, but was checked when
inviting to a topic.
Another minor security issue was that group owners could invite to
group topics even if they did not have the minimum trust level to do
it.
It was possible to see notifications of other users using routes:
- notifications/responses
- notifications/likes-received
- notifications/mentions
- notifications/edits
We weren't showing anything private (like notifications about private messages), only things that're publicly available in other places. But anyway, it feels strange that it's possible to look at notifications of someone else. Additionally, there is a risk that we can unintentionally leak something on these pages in the future.
This commit restricts these routes.
The all inboxes was introduced in
016efeadf6 but we decided to roll it back
for performance reasons. The main performance challenge here is that PG
has to basically loop through all the PMs that a user is allowed to view
before being able to order by `Topic#bumped_at`. The all inboxes was not
planned as part of the new/unread filter so we've decided not to tackle
the performance issue for the upcoming release.

* PERF: Improve database query perf when loading topics for a category.
Instead of left joining the `topics` table against `categories` by filtering with `categories.id`,
we can improve the query plan by filtering against `topics.category_id`
first before joining which helps to reduce the number of rows in the
topics table that has to be joined against the other tables and also
make better use of our existing index.
The following is a before and after of the query plan for a category
with many subcategories.
