If the “secure media” site setting is enabled then ALL files uploaded to Discourse (images, video, audio, pdf, txt, zip etc. etc.) will follow the secure media rules. The “prevent anons from downloading files” setting will no longer have any bearing on upload security. Basically, the feature will more appropriately be called “secure uploads” instead of “secure media”.
This is being done because there are communities out there that would like all attachments and media to be secure based on category rules but still allow anonymous users to download attachments in public places, which is not possible in the current arrangement.
* Add uploads:sync_s3_acls rake task to ensure the ACLs in S3 are the correct (public-read or private) setting based on upload security
* Improved uploads:disable_secure_media to be more efficient and provide better messages to the user.
* Rename uploads:ensure_correct_acl task to uploads:secure_upload_analyse_and_update as it does more than check the ACL
* Many improvements to uploads:secure_upload_analyse_and_update
* Make sure that upload.access_control_post is unscoped so deleted posts are still fetched, because they still affect the security of the upload.
* Add escape hatch for capture_stdout in the form of RAILS_ENABLE_TEST_STDOUT. If provided the capture_stdout code will be ignored, so you can see the output if you need.
The rake task was broken, because the addition of the
UploadSecurity check returned true/false instead of the
upload ID to determine which uploads to set secure.
Also it was rebaking the posts in the wrong place and
pretty inefficiently at that. Also it was rebaking before
the upload was being changed to secure in the DB.
This also updates the task to set the access_control_post_id
for all uploads. the first post the upload is linked to is used
for the access control. if the upload doesn't get changed to
secure this doesn't affect anything.
Added a spec for the rake task to cover common cases.
