This security fix affects sites which have `SiteSetting.must_approve_users`
enabled. There are intentional and unintentional cases where invited
users can be auto approved and are deemed to have skipped the staff approval process.
Instead of trying to reason about when auto-approval should happen, we have decided that
enabling the `must_approve_users` setting going forward will just mean that all new users
must be explicitly approved by a staff user in the review queue. The only case where users are auto
approved is when the `auto_approve_email_domains` site setting is used.

Previous to this fix, in production we were getting 500 errors from
bootstrap.json cause script_asset_path can not find plugin-tests
Opted for the simplest fix that is omitting the files in production
Previously we limited Discourse Connect provider to 1 secret per domain.
This made it pretty awkward to cycle secrets in environments where config
takes time to propagate
This change allows for the same domain to have multiple secrets
Also fixes internal implementation on DiscourseConnectProvider which was
not thread safe as it leaned on class variables to ferry data around

Previously we hardcoded the DOWNLOAD_URL_EXPIRES_AFTER_SECONDS const
inside S3Helper to be 5 minutes (300 seconds). For various reasons,
some hosted sites may need this to be longer for other integrations.
The maximum expiry time for presigned URLs is 1 week (which is
604800 seconds), so that has been added as a validation on the
setting as well. The setting is hidden because 99% of the time
it should not be changed.
When searching for PMs or PMs in a group inbox, results in the header search were not being limited to 5 with a "More" link to the full page search. This PR fixes that.
It also simplifies the logic and updates the search API docs to include recently added `in:messages` and `group_messages:groupname` options.
When saving / creating bookmarks, we have code to save
the user's preference of bookmark_auto_delete_preference
to their user_options.
Unfortunately this can cause weirdness when plugins
have code using BookmarkManager to set the auto delete preference for
only a specific bookmark.
This commit introduces a save_user_preferences option (false
by default) so that this user preference is not saved unless
specified by the consumer of BookmarkManager, so plugins will
not have to worry about it.
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.
The title had to be added both on the 404 page generated by the server
side, displayed when the user reaches a bad page directly and the 404
page rendered by Ember when a user reaches a missing topic while
navigating the forum.
The logic in 06893380 only works for `.js` files. It breaks down for `.br.js` and `.gz.js` files. This commit makes things more robust by extracting only the base_url from the service-worker JS, and taking the map filename from the original `sourceMappingURL` comment.
`script_asset_path('.../blah.js.map')` was appending `.js`, which would result in a filename like `.js.map.js`. It would also lose the `/assets` prefix, since the map files are not included in the sprockets manifest.
This commit updates the sourceMappingURL rewriting logic to calculate the service-worker's own JS url, and then append `.map`.
We have a .ics endpoint for user bookmarks, this
commit makes it so polymorphic bookmarks work on
that endpoint, using the serializer associated with
the RegisteredBookmarkable.
A bit of a mixed bag, this addresses several edge areas of bookmarks and makes them compatible with polymorphic bookmarks (hidden behind the `use_polymorphic_bookmarks` site setting). The main ones are:
* ExportUserArchive compatibility
* SyncTopicUserBookmarked job compatibility
* Sending different notifications for the bookmark reminders based on the bookmarkable type
* Import scripts compatibility
* BookmarkReminderNotificationHandler compatibility
This PR also refactors the `register_bookmarkable` API so it accepts a class descended from a `BaseBookmarkable` class instead. This was done because we kept having to add more and more lambdas/properties inline and it was very messy, so a factory pattern is cleaner. The classes can be tested independently as well.
Some later PRs will address some other areas like the discourse narrative bot, advanced search, reports, and the .ics endpoint for bookmarks.
This was due to a server side bug when unicode usernames have been
enabled. We were double encoding the unicode username in the URL
resulting in a invalid URL.
Previously, accessing the Rails app directly in development mode would give you assets from our 'legacy' Ember asset pipeline. The only way to run with Ember CLI assets was to run ember-cli as a proxy. This was quite limiting when working on things which are bypassed when using the ember-cli proxy (e.g. changes to `application.html.erb`). Also, since `ember-auto-import` introduced chunking, visiting `/theme-qunit` under Ember CLI was failing to include all necessary chunks.
This commit teaches Sprockets about our Ember CLI assets so that they can be used in development mode, and are automatically collected up under `/public/assets` during `assets:precompile`. As a bonus, this allows us to remove all the custom manifest modification from `assets:precompile`.
The key changes are:
- Introduce a shared `EmberCli.enabled?` helper
- When ember-cli is enabled, add ember-cli `/dist/assets` as the top-priority Rails asset directory
- Have ember-cli output a `chunks.json` manifest, and teach `preload_script` to read it and append the correct chunks to their associated `afterFile`
- Remove most custom ember-cli logic from the `assets:precompile` step. Instead, rely on Rails to take care of pulling the 'precompiled' assets into the `public/assets` directory. Move the 'renaming' logic to runtime, so it can be used in development mode as well.
- Remove fingerprinting from `ember-cli-build`, and allow Rails to take care of things
Long-term, we may want to replace Sprockets with the lighter-weight Propshaft. The changes made in this commit have been made with that long-term goal in mind.
tldr: when you visit the rails app directly, you'll now be served the current ember-cli assets. To keep these up-to-date make sure either `ember serve`, or `ember build --watch` is running. If you really want to load the old non-ember-cli assets, then you should start the server with `EMBER_CLI_PROD_ASSETS=0`. (the legacy asset pipeline will be removed very soon)
It used to show the warning that said only members of certain groups
could view the topic even if the group "everyone" was listed in
category's permission list.
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.
* FEATURE: Let sites add a sitemap.xml file.
This PR adds the same features discourse-sitemap provides to core. Sitemaps are only added to the robots.txt file if the `enable_sitemap` setting is enabled and `login_required` disabled.
After merging discourse/discourse-sitemap#34, this change will take priority over the sitemap plugin because it will disable itself. We're also using the same sitemaps table, so our migration won't try to create it
again using `if_not_exists: true`.
After this commit, category group permissions can only be seen by users
that are allowed to manage a category. In the past, we inadvertently
included a category's group permissions settings in `CategoriesController#show`
and `CategoriesController#find_by_slug` endpoints for normal users when
those settings are only a concern to users that can manage a category.
Previously we only supported a single 'required tag group' for a category. This commit allows admins to specify multiple required tag groups, each with their own minimum tag count.
A new category_required_tag_groups database table replaces the existing columns on the categories table. Data is automatically migrated.
This did not work properly everytime because the destination URL was
saved in a cookie and that can be lost for various reasons. This commit
redirects the user to invited topic if it exists.
This commit introduces a new use_polymorphic_bookmarks site setting
that is default false and hidden, that will be used to help continuous
development of polymorphic bookmarks. This setting **should not** be
enabled anywhere in production yet, it is purely for local development.
This commit uses the setting to enable create/update/delete actions
for polymorphic bookmarks on the server and client side. The bookmark
interactions on topics/posts are all usable. Listing, searching,
sending bookmark reminders, and other edge cases will be handled
in subsequent PRs.
Comprehensive UI tests will be added in the final PR -- we already
have them for regular bookmarks, so it will just be a matter of
changing them to be for polymorphic bookmarks.
* FIX: Redirect if Discourse-Xhr-Redirect is present
`handleRedirect` was passed an wrong argument type (a string) instead of
a jqXHR object and missed the fields checked in condition, thus always
evaluating to `false`.
* FIX: Add `errors` field if group update confirmation
An explicit confirmation about the effect of the group update is
required if the default notification level changes. Previously, if the
confirmation was missing the API endpoint failed silently returning
a 200 response code and a `user_count` field. This change ensures that
a proper error code is returned (422), a descriptive error message and
the additional information in the `user_count` field.
This commit also refactors the API endpoint to use the
`Discourse-Xhr-Redirect` header to redirect the user if the group is
no longer visible.
Previously we would issue a 403 for all invalid routes under `/tags/c/...`, which is not semantically correct. In some cases, these 403'd routes would then be handled successfully in the Ember app, leading to some very confusing behavior.
* DEV: Allow params to be passed on topic redirects
There are several places where we redirect a url to a standard topic url
like `/t/:slug/:topic_id` but we weren't always passing query parameters
to the new url.
This change allows a few more query params to be included on the
redirect. The new params that are permitted are page, print, and
filter_top_level_replies. Any new params will need to be specified.
This also prevents the odd trailing empty page param that would
sometimes appear on a redirect. `/t/:slug/:id.json?page=`
* rubocop: fix missing space after comma
* fix another page= reference
* FEATURE: use canonical links in posts.rss feed
Previously we used non canonical links in posts.rss
These links get crawled frequently by crawlers when discovering new
content forcing crawlers to hop to non canonical pages just to end up
visiting canonical pages
This uses up expensive crawl time and adds load on Discourse sites
Old links were of the form:
`https://DOMAIN/t/SLUG/43/21`
New links are of the form
`https://DOMAIN/t/SLUG/43?page=2#post_21`
This also adds a post_id identified element to crawler view that was
missing.
Note, to avoid very expensive N+1 queries required to figure out the
page a post is on during rss generation, we cache that information.
There is a smart "cache breaker" which ensures worst case scenario is
a "page drift" - meaning we would publicize a post is on page 11 when
it is actually on page 10 due to post deletions. Cache holds for up to
12 hours.
Change only impacts public post RSS feeds (`/posts.rss`)
* DEV: Deprecate /posts/:id/reply-ids/all
It was added in ed4c0c4a63 and its only use was removed in b58867b6e9
Nothing in all-the* seems to be using this endpoint.
* Update app/controllers/posts_controller.rb

The `blocked onebox domains` setting lets site owners change what sites
are allowed to be oneboxed. When a link is entered into a post,
Discourse checks the domain of the link against that setting and blocks
the onebox if the domain is blocked. But if there's a chain of
redirects, then only the final destination website is checked against
the site setting.
This commit amends that behavior so that every website in the redirect
chain is checked against the site setting, and if anything is blocked
the original link doesn't onebox at all in the post. The
`Discourse-No-Onebox` header is also checked in every response and the
onebox is blocked if the header is set to "1".
Additionally, Discourse will now include the `Discourse-No-Onebox`
header with every response if the site requires login to access content.
This is done to signal to a Discourse instance that it shouldn't attempt
to onebox other Discourse instances if they're login-only. Non-Discourse
websites can also use include that header if they don't wish to have
Discourse onebox their content.
Internal ticket: t59305.
Previously, if an admin user tried to add/remove
users to another user's ignored list, it would
be added to their own ignore list because the
controller used current_user. Now for admins only
a source_user_id parameter can be passed through,
which will be used to ignore the target user for
that source user.
When creating files with create-multipart, if the file
size was somehow zero we were showing a very unhelpful
error message to the user. Now we show a nicer message,
and proactively don't call the API if we know the file
size is 0 bytes in JS, along with extra console logging
to help with debugging.
This PR adds an extra description to the 2FA page when granting a user admin access. It also introduces a general system for adding customized descriptions that can be used by future actions.
(Follow-up to dd6ec65061)
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.
Our @mention user search prioritized users based on prefix matches.
So if searching for `sa` we will display `sam`, `asam` in that order
Previously, we did not prioritize group matches based on prefix. This change ensures better parity.
Implementation notes:
1. User search only prioritizes based on username prefix, not name prefix. TBD if we want to change that.
2. @mention on client side will show 0 group matches if we fill up all the spots with user matches. TBD if we want to unconditionally show the first / second group match.

This feature was rarely used, could be used for spamming users and was
impossible to add a context to why the user was notified of a topic. A
simple private messages that includes the link and personalized message
can be used instead.
* DEV: Show only top level replies
Adds a new query param to the topic view so that we can filter out posts
that aren't top level replies. If a post is a reply to another post
instead of the original topic post we should not include it in the
response if the `filter_top_level_replies` query param is present.
* add rspec test
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
* FEATURE: upload an avatar option for uploading avatars with selectable avatars
Allow staff or users at or above a trust level to upload avatars even when the site
has selectable avatars enabled.
Everyone can still pick from the list of avatars. The option to upload is shown
below the selectable avatar list.
refactored boolean site setting into an enum with the following values:
disabled: No selectable avatars enabled (default)
everyone: Show selectable avatars, and allow everyone to upload custom avatars
tl1: Show selectable avatars, but require tl1+ and staff to upload custom avatars
tl2: Show selectable avatars, but require tl2+ and staff to upload custom avatars
tl3: Show selectable avatars, but require tl3+ and staff to upload custom avatars
tl4: Show selectable avatars, but require tl4 and staff to upload custom avatars
staff: Show selectable avatars, but only allow staff to upload custom avatars
no_one: Show selectable avatars. No users can upload custom avatars

Currently, providing things like `filter[%24acunetix]=1` to
`UserActionsController#index` will throw an exception because instead of
getting a string as expected, we get a hash instead.
This patch simply uses `#permit` from strong parameters properly: first
we apply it on the whole parameters, this way it filters the keys we’re
interested in. By doing this, if the value is a hash for example, the
whole key/value pair will be ignored completely.
This commit handles the edge case where a draft is lost with no warnings if the user edits the title (or category/tags) of a topic while they're replying.to the same topic. Repro steps are as follows:
1. Start replying to a topic and type enough to get a draft saved.
2. Scroll up to the topic title and click the pencil icon next to the topic title, change the title, category and/or tags, and then save the changes.
3. Reload the page and you'll see that the draft is gone.
This happens because we only allow 1 draft per topic per user and when you edit the title of a topic that you're replying to, from the server perspective it'll look like as if you've submitted your reply so it will advance the draft sequence for the topic and delete the draft.
The fix in this commit makes `PostRevisor` skip advancing the draft sequence when a topic's title is edited using the pencil button next to the title.

We validate the *format* of email addresses in many places with a match against
a regex, often with very slightly different syntax.
Adding a separate EmailAddressValidator simplifies the code in a few spots and
feels cleaner.
Deprecated the old location in case someone is using it in a plugin.
No functionality change is in this commit.
Note: the regex used at the moment does not support using address literals, e.g.:
* localpart@[192.168.0.1]
* localpart@[2001:db8::1]
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.
When parent category or grandparent category is muted, then category should be muted as well.
Still, it can be overridden by setting individual subcategory notification level.
CategoryUser record is not created, mute for subcategories is purely virtual.
This can happen if the topic to which a user is invited is in a private
category and the user was not invited to one of the groups that can see
that specific category.
This used to be a warning and this commit makes it an error.
Whenever we got a bounced email in the Email::Receiver we
previously would just set bounced: true on the EmailLog and
discard the status/diagnostic code. This commit changes this
flow to store the bounce error code (defined in the RFC at
https://www.iana.org/assignments/smtp-enhanced-status-codes/smtp-enhanced-status-codes.xhtml)
not just in the Email::Receiver, but also via webhook events
from other mail services and from SNS.
This commit does not surface the bounce error in the UI,
we can do that later if necessary.
We serve `service-worker.js` in an unusual way, which means that the sourcemap is not available on an adjacent path. This means that the browser fails to fetch the map, and shows an error in the console.
This commit re-writes the source map reference in the static_controller to be an absolute link to the asset (including the appropriate CDN, if enabled), and adds a spec for the behavior.
It's important to do this at runtime, rather than JS precompile time, so that changes to CDN configuration do not require re-compilation to take effect.
This adds logic to increase an `InvitedUser` record, increase
`redemption_count` and create a `:invitee_accepted` to let the inviter
know that the invitee used the invite.
Initial support for this was implemented in commit 9969631.
Sorting group members worked always kept the group owners at the top of
the list. This commit keeps the group owners at the top of the list only
when no order exists.
This commits adds a new advance_draft to PostCreator that controls if
the draft sequence will be advanced or not. If the draft sequence is
advanced then the old drafts will be cleared. This used to happen for
posts created by plugins or through the API and cleared user drafts
by mistake.
* FEATURE: Add external_id to topics
This commit allows for topics to be created and fetched by an
external_id. These changes are API only for now as there aren't any
front changes.
* add annotations
* add external_id to this spec
* Several PR feedback changes
- Add guardian to find topic
- 403 is returned for not found as well now
- add `include_external_id?`
- external_id is now case insensitive
- added test for posts_controller
- added test for topic creator
- created constant for max length
- check that it redirects to the correct path
- restrain external id in routes file
* remove puts
* fix tests
* only check for external_id in webhook if exists
* Update index to exclude external_id if null
* annotate
* Update app/controllers/topics_controller.rb
We need to check whether the topic is present first before passing it to the guardian.

This can be disabled by setting `EMBER_CLI_PROD_ASSETS=0`, but this option will not be available for long. If your theme/plugin/site has issues under Ember CLI, please open a topic on https://meta.discourse.org
This commit allows group SMTP emails to be sent with a
different from email address that has been set up as an
alias in the email provider. Emails from the alias will
be grouped correctly using Message-IDs in the mail client,
and replies to the alias go into the correct group inbox.
Job arguments go via JSON, and so symbols will appear as strings in the Job's `#execute` method. The latest version of Sidekiq has started warning about this to reduce developer confusion.
- Limit bulk re-invite to 1 time per day
- Move bulk invite by csv behind a site setting (hidden by default)
- Bump invite expiry from 30 -> 90 days
## Updates to rate_limiter
When limiting reinvites I found that **staff** are never limited in any way. So I updated the **rate_limiter** model to allow for a few things:
- add an optional param of `staff_limit`, which (when included and passed values, and the user passes `.staff?`) will override the default `max` & `secs` values and apply them to the user.
- in the case you **do** pass values to `staff_limit` but the user **does not** pass `staff?` the standard `max` & `secs` values will be applied to the user.
This should give us enough flexibility to
1. continue to apply a strict rate limit to a standard user
2. but also apply a secondary (less strict) limit to staff
When the record is not saved, we should display a proper message.
One potential reason can be plugins for example discourse-calendar is specifying that only first post can contain event
* FIX: Remove svg icons from webmanifest shortcuts
While SVGs are valid in the webmanifest, Chromium has not implemented
support for it in this specific manifest member.
Revert when https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1091612
lands.
* fix test
When staff visits the user profile of another user, the `email` field
in the model is empty. In this case, staff cannot send the reset email
password because nothing is passed in the `login` field.
This commit changes the behavior for staff users to allow resetting
password by username instead.
The UI used to request a password reset by username when the user was
logged in. This did not work when hide_email_already_taken site setting
was enabled, which disables the lookup-by-username functionality.
This commit also introduces a check to ensure that the parameter is an
email when hide_email_already_taken is enabled as the single allowed
type is email (no usernames are allowed).
* FIX: Mark invites flash messages as HTML safe.
This change should be safe as all user inputs included in the errors are sanitized before sending it back to the client.
Context: https://meta.discourse.org/t/html-tags-are-explicit-after-latest-update/214220
* If somebody adds a new error message that includes user input and doesn't sanitize it, using html-safe suddenly becomes unsafe again. As an extra layer of protection, we make the client sanitize the error message received from the backend.
* Escape user input instead of sanitizing
* FEATURE: Export topics to markdown
The route `/raw/TOPIC_ID` will now export whole topics (paginated to 100
posts) in a markdown format.
