This is a low severity security fix because it requires a logged in
admin user to update a site setting via the API directly to an invalid
value.
The fix adds validation for the affected site settings, as well as a
secondary fix to prevent injection in the event of bad data somehow
already exists.
We were blocking user registrations with same username and password,
but allowing usernames to be changed to be same as password later.
Also disallow names to be the same as password.
* Introduced fab!, a helper that creates database state for a group
It's almost identical to let_it_be, except:
1. It creates a new object for each test by default,
2. You can disable it using PREFABRICATION=0
This removes all uses of both `send` and `public_send` from consumers of
SiteSetting and instead introduces a `get` helper for dynamic lookup
This leads to much cleaner and safer code long term as we are always explicit
to test that a site setting is really there before sending an arbitrary
string to the class
It also removes a couple of risky stubs from the auth provider test
This change both speeds up specs (less strings to allocate) and helps catch
cases where methods in Discourse are mutating inputs.
Overall we will be migrating everything to use #frozen_string_literal: true
it will take a while, but this is the first and safest move in this direction
Conversely, if a user is deactivated the reviewable should automatically
be rejected.
Before this fix, if a user was not active they'd still show in the
review queue but without an "Approve" button which was confusing.
Includes support for flags, reviewable users and queued posts, with REST API
backwards compatibility.

Migrates email user options to a new data structure, where `email_always`, `email_direct` and `email_private_messages` are replace by
* `email_messages_level`, with options: `always`, `only_when_away` and `never` (defaults to `always`)
* `email_level`, with options: `always`, `only_when_away` and `never` (defaults to `only_when_away`)
It is not a setting, and only relevant in specs. The new API is:
```
Jobs.run_later! # jobs will be thrown on the queue
Jobs.run_immediately! # jobs will run right away, avoid the queue
```
Previously if you wanted to have jobs execute in test mode, you'd have
to do `SiteSetting.queue_jobs = false`, because the opposite of queue
is to execute.
I found this very confusing, so I created a test helper called
`run_jobs_synchronously!` which is much more clear about what it does.

This gives more control over the request. In particular we can easily
lookup DNS dynamically, instead of only upon NGINX startup.
Previously, NGINX was looking up IP for the letter avatar service and
caching the CDN IP address, this caused issues if CDN changed IP, in
which letter avatars would be broken till a container restarted.
NGINX config has been updated to add caching. This change will require
a container rebuild.
The proxy will now function in development environments, so the patch
for `letter_avatar_proxy` has been removed.
This corrects 2 issues:
First is a regression with d7c08e21 for some reason dependent :delete_all
respects default scopes where-as dependent :destroy bypasses it.
Secondly, we were keeping orphan user actions around on user destroy, this
ensures we remove all the user actions not only ones that originated by
the user.
So for example: if I like a post of user A we create a user action saying I
did that, but once user A is deleted we were not removing the action leading
to an orphan action in the database.
Changes to functionality
- Removed syncing of user metadata including gender, location etc.
These are no longer available to standard Facebook applications.
- Removed the remote 'revoke' functionality. No other providers have
it, and it does not appear to be standard practice in other apps.
- The 'facebook_no_email' event is no longer logged. The system can
cope fine with a missing email address.
Data is migrated to the new user_associated_accounts table.
facebook_user_infos can be dropped once we are confident the data has
been migrated successfully.
- remove inactive user report and replace with posts
- clean up internals so grouping by week happens on client
- when switching periods old report was not destroyed leading to bugs
- calculate trend based on previous interval ... not previous 30 days
- show percentages for mau/dau
- be more careful about utc date usage
- show uniqu and click through rate on search panel
- publish key of report with report so we only load the correct one
- subscribe earlier in channel in case of concurrency issues
Setting a user's default groups based on their email address should only be done once, ie. when they confirm their email address.
Previously we were doing this everytime we'd save a user record 🤷
Revamped system for managing authentication tokens.
- Every user has 1 token per client (web browser)
- Tokens are rotated every 10 minutes
New system migrates the old tokens to "legacy" tokens,
so users still remain logged on.
Also introduces weekly job to expire old auth tokens.
Users can no longer opt-in for "public" edit history
if site owner disables it.
This feature adds cost and complexity to post rendering since
user options need to be premeptively loaded for every user in the
stream. It is also confusing to explain to communities with private edit
history.

As it stands we load up user records quite frequently on the topic pages,
this in turn pulls all the columns for the users being selected, just to
discard them after they are loaded
New structure keeps all options in a discrete table, this is better organised
and allows us to easily add more column without worrying about bloating the
user table
Since rspec-rails 3, the default installation creates two helper files:
* `spec_helper.rb`
* `rails_helper.rb`
`spec_helper.rb` is intended as a way of running specs that do not
require Rails, whereas `rails_helper.rb` loads Rails (as Discourse's
current `spec_helper.rb` does).
For more information:
https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/upgrade#default-helper-files
In this commit, I've simply replaced all instances of `spec_helper` with
`rails_helper`, and renamed the original `spec_helper.rb`.
This brings the Discourse project closer to the standard usage of RSpec
in a Rails app.
At present, every spec relies on loading Rails, but there are likely
many that don't need to. In a future pull request, I hope to introduce a
separate, minimal `spec_helper.rb` which can be used in tests which
don't rely on Rails.
Group owners are regular users that can add or remove users to a group
The Admin UX allows admins to appoint group owners
The public group UX will display group owners first and unlock UI to
add and remove members
Group owners can only be appointed on non automatic groups
Group owners may not appoint another group owner
On sites that don't otherwise configure an avatar fallback, Discourse will
now tell the client to get its letter avatars from a location which nginx
proxies to the centralised `avatars.discourse.org` service. This alleviates
privacy concerns, whilst still providing some degree of performance benefit
(no need for every site to delay avatar response by 300ms for image
rendering).
It is still possible to gain the benefits of global image caching and the
lower latency of requesting directly from a CDN, by explicitly changing the
`external_system_avatars_url` site setting to
`https://avatars.discourse.org/letter/{first_letter}/{color}/{size}.png`.

Changed internals so trust levels are referred to with
TrustLevel[1], TrustLevel[2] etc.
This gives us much better flexibility naming trust levels, these names
are meant to be controlled by various communities.
