When calling the API to delete a user:
```
curl -X DELETE "https://discourse.example.com/admin/users/159.json" \
-H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data;" \
-H "Api-Key: ***" \
-H "Api-Username: ***" \
-F "delete_posts=true" \
-F "block_email=false" \
-F "block_urls=false" \
-F "block_ip=false"
```
Setting the parameters `block_email`, `block_urls` and `block_ip`explicitly to `false` did not work because the values weren't being parsed to boolean.
This commit migrates all bookmarks to be polymorphic (using the
bookmarkable_id and bookmarkable_type) columns. It also deletes
all the old code guarded behind the use_polymorphic_bookmarks setting
and changes that setting to true for all sites and by default for
the sake of plugins.
No data is deleted in the migrations, the old post_id and for_topic
columns for bookmarks will be dropped later on.
Discourse has the Discourse Connect Provider protocol that makes it possible to
use a Discourse instance as an identity provider for external sites. As a
natural extension to this protocol, this PR adds a new feature that makes it
possible to use Discourse as a 2FA provider as well as an identity provider.
The rationale for this change is that it's very difficult to implement 2FA
support in a website and if you have multiple websites that need to have 2FA,
it's unrealistic to build and maintain a separate 2FA implementation for each
one. But with this change, you can piggyback on Discourse to take care of all
the 2FA details for you for as many sites as you wish.
To use Discourse as a 2FA provider, you'll need to follow this guide:
https://meta.discourse.org/t/-/32974. It walks you through what you need to
implement on your end/site and how to configure your Discourse instance. Once
you're done, there is only one additional thing you need to do which is to
include `require_2fa=true` in the payload that you send to Discourse.
When Discourse sees `require_2fa=true`, it'll prompt the user to confirm their
2FA using whatever methods they've enabled (TOTP or security keys), and once
they confirm they'll be redirected back to the return URL you've configured and
the payload will contain `confirmed_2fa=true`. If the user has no 2FA methods
enabled however, the payload will not contain `confirmed_2fa`, but it will
contain `no_2fa_methods=true`.
You'll need to be careful to re-run all the security checks and ensure the user
can still access the resource on your site after they return from Discourse.
This is very important because there's nothing that guarantees the user that
will come back from Discourse after they confirm 2FA is the same user that
you've redirected to Discourse.
Internal ticket: t62183.
There are still some, but those are in actual code that's used outside core, so the change there would need to go through the deprecation cycle. That's a task for another day.
Previous to this change if any of the assets were not allowed extensions
they would simply be silently ignored, this could lead to broken themes
that are very hard to debug
This change adds support for the categories endpoint to have an api
scope. Only adds GET scope for listing categories and for fetching a
single category.
See: https://meta.discourse.org/t/218080/4
Discourse users and associated accounts are created or updated when a
user logins or connects the account using their account preferences.
This new API can be used to create associated accounts and users too,
if necessary.
It's very easy to forget to add `require 'rails_helper'` at the top of every core/plugin spec file, and omissions can cause some very confusing/sporadic errors.
By setting this flag in `.rspec`, we can remove the need for `require 'rails_helper'` entirely.
This allows text editors to use correct syntax coloring for the heredoc sections.
Heredoc tag names we use:
languages: SQL, JS, RUBY, LUA, HTML, CSS, SCSS, SH, HBS, XML, YAML/YML, MF, ICS
other: MD, TEXT/TXT, RAW, EMAIL
aa1442fdc3 split theme stylesheets so that every component gets its own stylesheet. Therefore, there is now no need for parent themes to collate the settings/variables of its children during scss compilation.
Technically this is a breaking change for any themes which depend on the settings/variables of their child components. That was never a supported/recommended arrangement, so we don't expect this to cause issues.
2FA support in Discourse was added and grown gradually over the years: we first
added support for TOTP for logins, then we implemented backup codes, and last
but not least, security keys. 2FA usage was initially limited to logging in,
but it has been expanded and we now require 2FA for risky actions such as
adding a new admin to the site.
As a result of this gradual growth of the 2FA system, technical debt has
accumulated to the point where it has become difficult to require 2FA for more
actions. We now have 5 different 2FA UI implementations and each one has to
support all 3 2FA methods (TOTP, backup codes, and security keys) which makes
it difficult to maintain a consistent UX for these different implementations.
Moreover, there is a lot of repeated logic in the server-side code behind these
5 UI implementations which hinders maintainability even more.
This commit is the first step towards repaying the technical debt: it builds a
system that centralizes as much as possible of the 2FA server-side logic and
UI. The 2 main components of this system are:
1. A dedicated page for 2FA with support for all 3 methods.
2. A reusable server-side class that centralizes the 2FA logic (the
`SecondFactor::AuthManager` class).
From a top-level view, the 2FA flow in this new system looks like this:
1. User initiates an action that requires 2FA;
2. Server is aware that 2FA is required for this action, so it redirects the
user to the 2FA page if the user has a 2FA method, otherwise the action is
performed.
3. User submits the 2FA form on the page;
4. Server validates the 2FA and if it's successful, the action is performed and
the user is redirected to the previous page.
A more technically-detailed explanation/documentation of the new system is
available as a comment at the top of the `lib/second_factor/auth_manager.rb`
file. Please note that the details are not set in stone and will likely change
in the future, so please don't use the system in your plugins yet.
Since this is a new system that needs to be tested, we've decided to migrate
only the 2FA for adding a new admin to the new system at this time (in this
commit). Our plan is to gradually migrate the remaining 2FA implementations to
the new system.
For screenshots of the 2FA page, see PR #15377 on GitHub.
An admin could search for all screened ip addresses in a block by
using wildcards. 192.168.* returned all IPs in range 192.168.0.0/16.
This feature allows admins to search for a single IP address in all
screened IP blocks. 192.168.0.1 returns all IP blocks that match it,
for example 192.168.0.0/16.
* FEATURE: Remove roll up button for screened IPs
* FIX: Match more specific screened IP address first
* File.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
File.exist?
* Dir.exists? is deprecated and removed in Ruby 3.2 in favor of
Dir.exist?
Discourse sent only translation overrides for the current language to the client instead of sending overrides from fallback locales as well. This especially impacted en_GB -> en since most overrides would be done in English instead of English (UK).
This also adds lots of tests for previously untested code.
There's a small caveat: The client currently doesn't handle fallback locales for MessageFormat strings. That is why overrides for those strings always have a higher priority than regular translations. So, as an example, the lookup order for MessageFormat strings in German is:
1. override for de
2. override for en
3. value from de
4. value from en

`auto_update` is true by default at the database level, but it doesn't make sense for `auto_update` to be true on themes that are not imported from a Git repository.
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
Uppy adds the file name as the "name" parameter in the
payload by default, which means that for things like the
emoji uploader which have a name param used by the controller,
that param will be passed as the file name. We already use
the existing file name if the name param is null, so this
commit just does further cleanup of the name param, removing
the extension if it is a filename so we don't end up with
emoji names like blah_png.
Uppy and Resumable slice up their chunks differently, which causes a difference
in this algorithm. Let's take a 131.6MB file (137951695 bytes) with a 5MB (5242880 bytes)
chunk size. For resumable, there are 26 chunks, and uppy there are 27. This is
controlled by forceChunkSize in resumable which is false by default. The final
chunk size is 6879695 (chunk size + remainder) whereas in uppy it is 1636815 (just remainder).
This means that the current condition of uploaded_file_size + current_chunk_size >= total_size
is hit twice by uppy, because it uses a more correct number of chunks. This
can be solved for both uppy and resumable by checking the _previous_ chunk
number * chunk_size as the uploaded_file_size.
An example of what is happening before that change, using the current
chunk number to calculate uploaded_file_size.
chunk 26: resumable: uploaded_file_size (26 * 5242880) + current_chunk_size (6879695) = 143194575 >= total_size (137951695) ? YES
chunk 26: uppy: uploaded_file_size (26 * 5242880) + current_chunk_size (5242880) = 141557760 >= total_size (137951695) ? YES
chunk 27: uppy: uploaded_file_size (27 * 5242880) + current_chunk_size (1636815) = 143194575 >= total_size (137951695) ? YES
An example of what this looks like after the change, using the previous
chunk number to calculate uploaded_file_size:
chunk 26: resumable: uploaded_file_size (25 * 5242880) + current_chunk_size (6879695) = 137951695 >= total_size (137951695) ? YES
chunk 26: uppy: uploaded_file_size (25 * 5242880) + current_chunk_size (5242880) = 136314880 >= total_size (137951695) ? NO
chunk 27: uppy: uploaded_file_size (26 * 5242880) + current_chunk_size (1636815) = 137951695 >= total_size (137951695) ? YES
* 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.
Administrators can use second factor to confirm granting admin access
without using email. The old method of confirmation via email is still
used as a fallback when second factor is unavailable.
* FIX: Revoking admin or moderator status doesn't require refresh to delete/anonymize/merge user
On the /admin/users/<id>/<username> page, there are action buttons that are either visible or hidden depending on a few fields from the AdminDetailsSerializer: `can_be_deleted`, `can_be_anonymized`, `can_be_merged`, `can_delete_all_posts`.
These fields are updated when granting/revoking admin or moderator status. However, those updates were not being reflected on the page. E.g. if a user is granted moderation privileges, the 'anonymize user' and 'merge' buttons still appear on the page, which is inconsistent with the backend state of the user. It requires refreshing the page to update the state.
This commit fixes that issue, by syncing the client model state with the server state when handling a successful response from the server. Now, when revoking privileges, the buttons automatically appear without refreshing the page. Similarly, when granting moderator privileges, the buttons automatically disappear without refreshing the page.
* Add detailed user response to spec for changed routes.
Add tests to verify that the revoke_moderation, grant_moderation, and revoke_admin routes return a response formatted according to the AdminDetailedUserSerializer.
Currently when bulk-awarding a badge that can be granted multiple times, users in the CSV file are granted the badge once no matter how many times they're listed in the file and only if they don't have the badge already.
This PR adds a new option to the Badge Bulk Award feature so that it's possible to grant users a badge even if they already have the badge and as many times as they appear in the CSV file.
The first thing we needed here was an enum rather than a boolean to determine how a directory_column was created. Now we have `automatic`, `user_field` and `plugin` directory columns.
This plugin API is assuming that the plugin has added a migration to a column to the `directory_items` table.
This was created to be initially used by discourse-solved. PR with API usage - https://github.com/discourse/discourse-solved/pull/137/
Over the years we accrued many spelling mistakes in the code base.
This PR attempts to fix spelling mistakes and typos in all areas of the code that are extremely safe to change

- test descriptions
- other low risk areas
Some emails coming in via the mail receiver can still end up
with bad encoding when trying to enqueue the job. This catches
the last encoding issue and forces iso-8559-1 and encodes to
UTF-8 to circumvent the issue.
We have found when receiving and posting inbound emails to the handle_mail route, it is better to POST the payload as a base64 encoded string to avoid strange encoding issues. This introduces a new param of `email_encoded` and maintains the legacy param of email, showing a deprecation warning. Eventually the old param of `email` will be dropped and the new one `email_encoded` will be the only way to handle_mail.
Rails 6.1.3.1 deprecates a few API and has some internal changes that break our tests suite, so this commit fixes all the deprecations and errors and now Discourse should be fully compatible with Rails 6.1.3.1. We also have a new release of the rails_failover gem that's compatible with Rails 6.1.3.1.
This makes behavior consistent with documentation:
API:
> Will send an email with this message when present
Web UI:
> Optionally, provide more information about the suspension and it will be emailed to the user
Find & Replace and Autotag watched words were not completely exported
and import did not work with these either. This commit changes the
input and output format to CSV, which allows for a secondary column.
This change is backwards compatible because a CSV file with only one
column has one value per line.
Currently the process of adding a custom image to badge is quite clunky; you have to upload your image to a topic, and then copy the image URL and pasting it in a text field. Besides being clucky, if the topic or post that contains the image is deleted, the image will be garbage-collected in a few days and the badge will lose the image because the application is not that the image is referenced by a badge.
This commit improves that by adding a proper image uploader widget for badge images.
Adding a scope from a plugin was broken. This commit fixes it and adds a test.
It also documents the instance method and renames the serialized "id" attribute to "scope_id" to avoid a conflict when the scope also has a parameter with the same name.
* DEV: Show warning message when using ember css selectors
When editing the theme css via the admin UI a warning message
will be displayed if it detects that the `#emberXXX` or `.ember-view`
css selectors are being used. These are dynamic selectors that ember
generates, but they can change so they should not be used.
* Update error message text to be more helpful
* Display a warning instead of erroring out
This allows the theme to still be saved, but a warning is displayed.
Updated the tests to check for the error message.
Updated the pre tags css so that it wraps for long messages.
The 'Discourse SSO' protocol is being rebranded to DiscourseConnect. This should help to reduce confusion when 'SSO' is used in the generic sense.
This commit aims to:
- Rename `sso_` site settings. DiscourseConnect specific ones are prefixed `discourse_connect_`. Generic settings are prefixed `auth_`
- Add (server-side-only) backwards compatibility for the old setting names, with deprecation notices
- Copy `site_settings` database records to the new names
- Rename relevant translation keys
- Update relevant translations
This commit does **not** aim to:
- Rename any Ruby classes or methods. This might be done in a future commit
- Change any URLs. This would break existing integrations
- Make any changes to the protocol. This would break existing integrations
- Change any functionality. Further normalization across DiscourseConnect and other auth methods will be done separately
The risks are:
- There is no backwards compatibility for site settings on the client-side. Accessing auth-related site settings in Javascript is fairly rare, and an error on the client side would not be security-critical.
- If a plugin is monkey-patching parts of the auth process, changes to locale keys could cause broken error messages. This should also be unlikely. The old site setting names remain functional, so security-related overrides will remain working.
A follow-up commit will be made with a post-deploy migration to delete the old `site_settings` rows.
This pull requests contains a series of improvements to groups
settings and member management such as:
- Showing which users have set a group as primary
- Moving similar settings together under Effects
- Adding bulk select and actions to members page
Admins can now edit translations in different languages without having to change their locale. We display a warning when there's a fallback language set.
This results in some fun disasters if allowed to happen. For now, just issue an oblique error message; a localized message will be added on the client.
Allowing the editing of remote themes has been something Discourse has advised against for some time. This commit removes the ability to edit or upload files to remote themes from Admin > Customize to enforce the recommended practice.
Users could be silenced or suspended by two staff members at the same time and
would not be aware of it. This commit shows an error message if another penalty
has been applied.
When a category is removed from `auto_watch_category` we are removing
CategoryUser. However, there are still TopicUser with notification level
set to `watching` which was inherited from Category.
We should move them back to `regular` unless they were modified by a user.
These fields are required when using the UI and if `suspend_until`
params isn't used the user never is actually suspended so we should
require these fields when suspending a user.
* Added scopes UI
* Create scopes when creating a new API key
* Show scopes on the API key show route
* Apply scopes on API requests
* Extend scopes from plugins
* Add missing scopes. A mapping can be associated with multiple controller actions
* Only send scopes if the use global key option is disabled. Use the discourse plugin registry to add new scopes
* Add not null validations and index for api_key_id
* Annotate model
* DEV: Move default mappings to ApiKeyScope
* Remove unused attribute and improve UI for existing keys
* Support multiple parameters separated by a comma
In some restricted setups all JS payloads need tight control.
This setting bans admins from making changes to JS on the site and
requires all themes be whitelisted to be used.
There are edge cases we still need to work through in this mode
hence this is still not supported in production and experimental.
Use an example like this to enable:
`DISCOURSE_WHITELISTED_THEME_REPOS="https://repo.com/repo.git,https://repo.com/repo2.git"`
By default this feature is not enabled and no changes are made.
One exception is that default theme id was missing a security check
this was added for correctness.
