SECURITY: Restrict unlisted topic creation () 2022-12-01 10:26:35 +00:00

FEATURE: hidden site setting to suppress unsecured categories from admins ()
The hidden site setting `suppress_secured_categories_from_admin` will
suppress visibility of categories without explicit access from admins
in a few key areas (category drop downs and topic lists)

It is not intended to be a security wall since admins can amend any site
setting. Instead it is feature that allows hiding the categories from the
UI.

Admins will still be able to see topics in categories without explicit
access using direct URLs or flags.

DEV: Introduce TopicGuardian#can_see_topic_ids method ()
Before this commit, there was no way for us to efficiently check an
array of topics for which a user can see. Therefore, this commit
introduces the `TopicGuardian#can_see_topic_ids` method which accepts an
array of `Topic#id`s and filters out the ids which the user is not
allowed to see. The `TopicGuardian#can_see_topic_ids` method is meant to
maintain feature parity with `TopicGuardian#can_see_topic?` at all
times so a consistency check has been added in our tests to ensure that
`TopicGuardian#can_see_topic_ids` returns the same result as
`TopicGuardian#can_see_topic?`. In the near future, the plan is for us
to switch to `TopicGuardian#can_see_topic_ids` completely but I'm not
doing that in this commit as we have to be careful with the performance
impact of such a change.

This method is currently not being used in the current commit but will
be relied on in a subsequent commit.

DEV: Automatically require 'rails_helper' in all specs ()
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.

DEV: Move spec/components to spec/lib ()
Lib specs were inexplicably split into two directories (`lib` and `components`)

This moves them all into `lib`.
