The ACL token decoding was not correctly handling time duration
syntax such as "1h" which forced people to use the nanosecond
representation via the HTTP API.
The change adds an unmarshal function which allows this syntax to
be used, along with other styles correctly.
This adds new OIDC endpoints on the RPC endpoint. These two RPCs
handle generating the OIDC provider URL and then completing the
login by exchanging the provider token with an internal Nomad
token.
The RPC endpoints both do double forwarding. The initial forward
is to ensure we are talking to the regional leader; the second
then takes into account whether the auth method generates local or
global tokens. If it creates global tokens, we must then forward
onto the federated regional leader.
API and RPC endpoints for ACLAuthMethods and ACLBindingRules should allow users
to send incomplete objects in order to, e.g., update single fields. This PR
provides "merging" functionality for these endpoints.
ACL binding rule create and deletes are always forwarded to the
authoritative region. In order to make these available in
federated regions, the leaders in these regions need to replicate
from the authoritative.
This change adds a new table that will store ACL binding rule
objects. The two indexes allow fast lookups by their ID, or by
which auth method they are linked to. Snapshot persist and
restore functionality ensures this table can be saved and
restored from snapshots.
In order to write and delete the object to state, new Raft messages
have been added.
All RPC request and response structs, along with object functions
such as diff and canonicalize have been included within this work
as it is nicely separated from the other areas of work.
Upcoming work to instrument the rate of RPC requests by consumer (and eventually
rate limit) require that we authenticate a RPC request before forwarding. Add a
new top-level `Authenticate` method to the server and have it return an
`AuthenticatedIdentity` struct. RPC handlers will use the relevant fields of
this identity for performing authorization.
This changeset includes:
* The main implementation of `Authenticate`
* Provide a new RPC `ACL.WhoAmI` for debugging authentication. This endpoint
returns the same `AuthenticatedIdentity` that will be used by RPC handlers. At
some point we might want to give this an equivalent HTTP endpoint but I didn't
want to add that to our public API until some of the other Workload Identity
work is solidified, especially if we don't need it yet.
* A full coverage test of the `Authenticate` method. This sets up two server
nodes with mTLS and ACLs, some tokens, and some allocations with workload
identities.
* Wire up an example of using `Authenticate` in the `Namespace.Upsert` RPC and
see how authorization happens after forwarding.
* A new semgrep rule for `Authenticate`, which we'll need to update once we're
ready to wire up more RPC endpoints with authorization steps.
Currently CRUD code that operates on SSO auth methods does not return created or updated object upon creation/update. This is bad UX and inconsistent behavior compared to other ACL objects like roles, policies or tokens.
This PR fixes it.
Relates to #13120
This changes adds ACL role creation and deletion to the event
stream. It is exposed as a single topic with two types; the filter
is primarily the role ID but also includes the role name.
While conducting this work it was also discovered that the events
stream has its own ACL resolution logic. This did not account for
ACL tokens which included role links, or tokens with expiry times.
ACL role links are now resolved to their policies and tokens are
checked for expiry correctly.
Making the ACL Role listing return object a stub future-proofs the
endpoint. In the event the role object grows, we are not bound by
having to return all fields within the list endpoint or change the
signature of the endpoint to reduce the list return size.
ACL Roles along with policies and global token will be replicated
from the authoritative region to all federated regions. This
involves a new replication loop running on the federated leader.
Policies and roles may be replicated at different times, meaning
the policies and role references may not be present within the
local state upon replication upsert. In order to bypass the RPC
and state check, a new RPC request parameter has been added. This
is used by the replication process; all other callers will trigger
the ACL role policy validation check.
There is a new ACL RPC endpoint to allow the reading of a set of
ACL Roles which is required by the replication process and matches
ACL Policies and Tokens. A bug within the ACL Role listing RPC has
also been fixed which returned incorrect data during blocking
queries where a deletion had occurred.
ACL tokens can now utilize ACL roles in order to provide API
authorization. Each ACL token can be created and linked to an
array of policies as well as an array of ACL role links. The link
can be provided via the role name or ID, but internally, is always
resolved to the ID as this is immutable whereas the name can be
changed by operators.
When resolving an ACL token, the policies linked from an ACL role
are unpacked and combined with the policy array to form the
complete auth set for the token.
The ACL token creation endpoint handles deduplicating ACL role
links as well as ensuring they exist within state.
When reading a token, Nomad will also ensure the ACL role link is
current. This handles ACL roles being deleted from under a token
from a UX standpoint.
New ACL Role RPC endpoints have been created to allow the creation,
update, read, and deletion of ACL roles. All endpoints require a
management token; in the future readers will also be allowed to
view roles associated to their ACL token.
The create endpoint in particular is responsible for deduplicating
ACL policy links and ensuring named policies are found within
state. This is done within the RPC handler so we perform a single
loop through the links for slight efficiency.
This commit includes the new state schema for ACL roles along with
state interaction functions for CRUD actions.
The change also includes snapshot persist and restore
functionality and the addition of FSM messages for Raft updates
which will come via RPC endpoints.
Two new periodic core jobs have been added which handle removing
expired local and global tokens from state. The local core job is
run on every leader; the global core job is only run on the leader
within the authoritative region.
The ACL token state schema has been updated to utilise two new
indexes which track expiration of tokens that are configured with
an expiration TTL or time. A new state function allows listing
ACL expired tokens which will be used by internal garbage
collection.
The ACL endpoint has been modified so that all validation happens
within a single function call. This is easier to understand and
see at a glance. The ACL token validation now also includes logic
for expiry TTL and times. The ACL endpoint upsert tests have been
condensed into a single, table driven test.
There is a new token canonicalize which provides a single place
for token canonicalization, rather than logic spread in the RPC
handler.
