The signature of the `raftApply` function requires that the caller unwrap the
first returned value (the response from `FSM.Apply`) to see if it's an
error. This puts the burden on the caller to remember to check two different
places for errors, and we've done so inconsistently.
Update `raftApply` to do the unwrapping for us and return any `FSM.Apply` error
as the error value. Similar work was done in Consul in
https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/pull/9991. This eliminates some boilerplate
and surfaces a few minor bugs in the process:
* job deregistrations of already-GC'd jobs were still emitting evals
* reconcile job summaries does not return scheduler errors
* node updates did not report errors associated with inconsistent service
discovery or CSI plugin states
Note that although _most_ of the `FSM.Apply` functions return only errors (which
makes it tempting to remove the first return value entirely), there are few that
return `bool` for some reason and Variables relies on the response value for
proper CAS checking.
This change resolves policies for workload identities when calling Client RPCs. Previously only ACL tokens could be used for Client RPCs.
Since the same cache is used for both bearer tokens (ACL and Workload ID), the token cache size was doubled.

In #15901 we introduced pre-forwarding authentication for RPCs so that we can
grab the identity for rate metrics. The `ACL.Bootstrap` RPC is an
unauthenticated endpoint, so any error message from authentication is not
particularly useful. This would be harmless, but if you try to bootstrap with
your `NOMAD_TOKEN` already set (perhaps because you were talking to another
cluster previously from the same shell session), you'll get an authentication
error instead of just having the token be ignored. This is a regression from the
existing behavior, so have this endpoint ignore auth errors the same way we do
for every other unauthenticated endpoint (ex `Status.Peers`)
This change introduces the Task API: a portable way for tasks to access Nomad's HTTP API. This particular implementation uses a Unix Domain Socket and, unlike the agent's HTTP API, always requires authentication even if ACLs are disabled.
This PR contains the core feature and tests but followup work is required for the following TODO items:
- Docs - might do in a followup since dynamic node metadata / task api / workload id all need to interlink
- Unit tests for auth middleware
- Caching for auth middleware
- Rate limiting on negative lookups for auth middleware

This changeset configures the RPC rate metrics that were added in #15515 to all
the RPCs that support authenticated HTTP API requests. These endpoints already
configured with pre-forwarding authentication in #15870, and a handful of others
were done already as part of the proof-of-concept work. So this changeset is
entirely copy-and-pasting one method call into a whole mess of handlers.
Upcoming PRs will wire up pre-forwarding auth and rate metrics for the remaining
set of RPCs that have no API consumers or aren't authenticated, in smaller
chunks that can be more thoughtfully reviewed.
This changeset allows Workload Identities to authenticate to all the RPCs that
support HTTP API endpoints, for use with PR #15864.
* Extends the work done for pre-forwarding authentication to all RPCs that
support a HTTP API endpoint.
* Consolidates the auth helpers used by the CSI, Service Registration, and Node
endpoints that are currently used to support both tokens and client secrets.
Intentionally excluded from this changeset:
* The Variables endpoint still has custom handling because of the implicit
policies. Ideally we'll figure out an efficient way to resolve those into real
policies and then we can get rid of that custom handling.
* The RPCs that don't currently support auth tokens (i.e. those that don't
support HTTP endpoints) have not been updated with the new pre-forwarding auth
We'll be doing this under a separate PR to support RPC rate metrics.
Implement a metric for RPC requests with labels on the identity, so that
administrators can monitor the source of requests within the cluster. This
changeset demonstrates the change with the new `ACL.WhoAmI` RPC, and we'll wire
up the remaining RPCs once we've threaded the new pre-forwarding authentication
through the all.
Note that metrics are measured after we forward but before we return any
authentication error. This ensures that we only emit metrics on the server that
actually serves the request. We'll perform rate limiting at the same place.
Includes telemetry configuration to omit identity labels.
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.
This changeset covers a sidebar discussion that @schmichael and I had around the
design for pre-forwarding auth. This includes some changes extracted out of
#15513 to make it easier to review both and leave a clean history.
* Remove fast path for NodeID. Previously-connected clients will have a NodeID
set on the context, and because this is a large portion of the RPCs sent we
fast-pathed it at the top of the `Authenticate` method. But the context is
shared for all yamux streams over the same yamux session (and TCP
connection). This lets an authenticated HTTP request to a client use the
NodeID for authentication, which is a privilege escalation. Remove the fast
path and annotate it so that we don't break it again.
* Add context to decisions around AuthenticatedIdentity. The `Authenticate`
method taken on its own looks like it wants to return an `acl.ACL` that folds
over all the various identity types (creating an ephemeral ACL on the fly if
neccessary). But keeping these fields idependent allows RPC handlers to
differentiate between internal and external origins so we most likely want to
avoid this. Leave some docstrings as a warning as to why this is built the way
it is.
* Mutate the request rather than returning. When reviewing #15513 we decided
that forcing the request handler to call `SetIdentity` was repetitive and
error prone. Instead, the `Authenticate` method mutates the request by setting
its `AuthenticatedIdentity`.
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.
This change add the RPC ACL binding rule handlers. These handlers
are responsible for the creation, updating, reading, and deletion
of binding rules.
The write handlers are feature gated so that they can only be used
when all federated servers are running the required version.
The HTTP API handlers and API SDK have also been added where
required. This allows the endpoints to be called from the API by users
and clients.
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.
Upcoming work to instrument the rate of RPC requests by consumer (and eventually
rate limit) requires that we thread the `RPCContext` through all RPC
handlers so that we can access the underlying connection. This changeset adds
the context to everywhere we intend to initially support it and intentionally
excludes streaming RPCs and client RPCs.
To improve the ergonomics of adding the context everywhere its needed and to
clarify the requirements of dynamic vs static handlers, I've also done a good
bit of refactoring here:
* canonicalized the RPC handler fields so they're as close to identical as
possible without introducing unused fields (i.e. I didn't add loggers if the
handler doesn't use them already).
* canonicalized the imports in the handler files.
* added a `NewExampleEndpoint` function for each handler that ensures we're
constructing the handlers with the required arguments.
* reordered the registration in server.go to match the order of the files (to
make it easier to see if we've missed one), and added a bunch of commentary
there as to what the difference between static and dynamic handlers is.
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
ACL tokens are granted permissions either by direct policy links
or via ACL role links. Callers should therefore be able to read
policies directly assigned to the caller token or indirectly by
ACL role links.
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.
* One-time tokens are not replicated between regions, so we don't want to enforce
that the version check across all of serf, just members in the same region.
* Scheduler: Disconnected clients handling is specific to a single region, so we
don't want to enforce that the version check across all of serf, just members in
the same region.
* Variables: enforce version check in Apply RPC
* Cleans up a bunch of legacy checks.
This changeset is specific to 1.4.x and the changes for previous versions of
Nomad will be manually backported in a separate PR.
An ACL roles name must be unique, however, a bug meant multiple
roles of the same same could be created. This fixes that problem
with checks in the RPC handler and state store.
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.
When applying a raft log to expire ACL tokens, we need to use a
timestamp provided by the leader so that the result is deterministic
across servers. Use leader's timestamp from RPC call
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.
Fix a panic in handling one-time auth tokens, used to support `nomad ui
--authenticate`.
If the nomad leader is a 1.1.x with some servers running as 1.0.x, the
pre-1.1.0 servers risk crashing and the cluster may lose quorum. That
can happen when `nomad authenticate -ui` command is issued, or when the
leader scans for expired tokens every 10 minutes.
Fixed#10943 .
RPC endpoints for the user-driven APIs (`UpsertOneTimeToken` and
`ExchangeOneTimeToken`) and token expiration (`ExpireOneTimeTokens`).
Includes adding expiration to the periodic core GC job.
If ACL Request is unauthenticated, we should honor the anonymous token.
This PR makes few changes:
* `GetPolicy` endpoints may return policy if anonymous policy allows it,
or return permission denied otherwise.
* `ListPolicies` returns an empty policy list, or one with anonymous
policy if one exists.
Without this PR, the we return an incomprehensible error.
