This expands the current shadow-banning feature to be usable via
the admin API and adds documentation for it.
A shadow-banned users receives successful responses to their
client-server API requests, but the events are not propagated into rooms.
Shadow-banning a user should be used as a tool of last resort and may lead
to confusing or broken behaviour for the client.
If no thumbnail of the requested type exists, return a 404 instead
of erroring. This doesn't quite match the spec (which does not define
what happens if no thumbnail can be found), but is consistent with
what Synapse already does.
* Factor out a common TestHtmlParser
Looks like I'm doing this in a few different places.
* Improve OIDC login test
Complete the OIDC login flow, rather than giving up halfway through.
* Ensure that OIDC login works with multiple OIDC providers
* Fix bugs in handling clientRedirectUrl
- don't drop duplicate query-params, or params with no value
- allow utf-8 in query-params
0dd2649c1 (#9112) changed the signature of `auth_via_oidc`. Meanwhile,
26d10331e (#9091) introduced a new test which relied on the old signature of
`auth_via_oidc`. The two branches were never tested together until they landed
in develop.
Protecting media stops it from being quarantined when
e.g. all media in a room is quarantined. This is useful
for sticker packs and other media that is uploaded by
server administrators, but used by many people.
* make the OIDC bits of the test work at a higher level - via the REST api instead of poking the OIDCHandler directly.
* Move it to test_login.py, where I think it fits better.
* Implement CasHandler.handle_redirect_request
... to make it match OidcHandler and SamlHandler
* Clean up interface for OidcHandler.handle_redirect_request
Make it accept `client_redirect_url=None`.
* Clean up interface for `SamlHandler.handle_redirect_request`
... bring it into line with CAS and OIDC by making it take a Request parameter,
move the magic for `client_redirect_url` for UIA into the handler, and fix the
return type to be a `str` rather than a `bytes`.
* Define a common protocol for SSO auth provider impls
* Give SsoIdentityProvider an ID and register them
* Combine the SSO Redirect servlets
Now that the SsoHandler knows about the identity providers, we can combine the
various *RedirectServlets into a single implementation which delegates to the
right IdP.

This adds an admin API that allows a server admin to get power in a room if a local user has power in a room. Will also invite the user if they're not in the room and its a private room. Can specify another user (rather than the admin user) to be granted power.

Replaces the `federation_ip_range_blacklist` configuration setting with an
`ip_range_blacklist` setting with wider scope. It now applies to:
* Federation
* Identity servers
* Push notifications
* Checking key validitity for third-party invite events
The old `federation_ip_range_blacklist` setting is still honored if present, but
with reduced scope (it only applies to federation and identity servers).
This PR adds a `room_version` argument to the `RestHelper`'s `create_room_as` function for tests. I plan to use this for testing knocking, which currently uses an unstable room version.
The spec requires synapse to support `identifier` dicts for `m.login.password`
user-interactive auth, which it did not (instead, it required an undocumented
`user` parameter.)
To fix this properly, we need to pull the code that interprets `identifier`
into `AuthHandler.validate_login` so that it can be called from the UIA code.
Fixes#5665.
remove the stubbing out of `request.process`, so that `requestReceived` also renders the request via the appropriate resource.
Replace render() with a stub for now.
The root resource isn't necessarily a JsonResource, so rename this method
accordingly, and update a couple of test classes to use the method rather than
directly manipulating self.resource.
Where we want to render a request against a specific Resource, call the global
make_request() function rather than the one in HomeserverTestCase, allowing us
to pass in an appropriate `Site`.
I idly noticed that these lists were out of sync with each other, causing us to miss a table in a test case (`local_invites`). Let's consolidate this list instead to prevent this from happening in the future.
We do it this way round so that only the "owner" can delete the access token (i.e. `/logout/all` by the "owner" also deletes that token, but `/logout/all` by the "target user" doesn't).
A future PR will add an API for creating such a token.
When the target user and authenticated entity are different the `Processed request` log line will be logged with a: `{@admin:server as @bob:server} ...`. I'm not convinced by that format (especially since it adds spaces in there, making it harder to use `cut -d ' '` to chop off the start of log lines). Suggestions welcome.
Split admin API for reported events in detail und list view.
API was introduced with #8217 in synapse v.1.21.0.
It makes the list (`GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports`) less complex and provides a better overview.
The details can be queried with: `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports/<report_id>`.
It is similar to room and users API.
It is a kind of regression in `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/event_reports`. `event_json` was removed. But the api was introduced one version before and it is an admin API (not under spec).

This PR allows Synapse modules making use of the `ModuleApi` to create and send non-membership events into a room. This can useful to have modules send messages, or change power levels in a room etc. Note that they must send event through a user that's already in the room.
The non-membership event limitation is currently arbitrary, as it's another chunk of work and not necessary at the moment.
* Optimise and test state fetching for 3p event rules
Getting all the events at once is much more efficient than getting them
individually
* Test that 3p event rules can modify events
PR #8292 tried to maintain backwards compat with modules which don't provide a
`check_visibility_can_be_modified` method, but the tests weren't being run,
and the check didn't work.
This PR allows `ThirdPartyEventRules` modules to view, manipulate and block changes to the state of whether a room is published in the public rooms directory.
While the idea of whether a room is in the public rooms list is not kept within an event in the room, `ThirdPartyEventRules` generally deal with controlling which modifications can happen to a room. Public rooms fits within that idea, even if its toggle state isn't controlled through a state event.
The idea is that in future tokens will encode a mapping of instance to position. However, we don't want to include the full instance name in the string representation, so instead we'll have a mapping between instance name and an immutable integer ID in the DB that we can use instead. We'll then do the lookup when we serialize/deserialize the token (we could alternatively pass around an `Instance` type that includes both the name and ID, but that turns out to be a lot more invasive).
Broken in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8275 and has yet to be put in a release. Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8418.
`next_link` is an optional parameter. However, we were checking whether the `next_link` param was valid, even if it wasn't provided. In that case, `next_link` was `None`, which would clearly not be a valid URL.
This would prevent password reset and other operations if `next_link` was not provided, and the `next_link_domain_whitelist` config option was set.
Fixes: #8359
Trying to reactivate a user with the admin API (`PUT /_synapse/admin/v2/users/<user_name>`) causes an internal server error.
Seems to be a regression in #8033.

This PR adds a confirmation step to resetting your user password between clicking the link in your email and your password actually being reset.
This is to better align our password reset flow with the industry standard of requiring a confirmation from the user after email validation.
If a file cannot be thumbnailed for some reason (e.g. the file is empty), then
catch the exception and convert it to a reasonable error message for the client.
This is a config option ported over from DINUM's Sydent: https://github.com/matrix-org/sydent/pull/285
They've switched to validating 3PIDs via Synapse rather than Sydent, and would like to retain this functionality.
This original purpose for this change is phishing prevention. This solution could also potentially be replaced by a similar one to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8004, but across all `*/submit_token` endpoint.
This option may still be useful to enterprise even with that safeguard in place though, if they want to be absolutely sure that their employees don't follow links to other domains.

#8174 removed the `is_guest` parameter from `get_room_data`, at the same time that #8157 was merged using it, colliding together to break unit tests on develop.
This PR removes the `is_guest` parameter from the call in the broken test.
Uses the same changelog as #8174.
Small cleanup PR.
* Removed the unused `is_guest` argument
* Added a safeguard to a (currently) impossible code path, fixing static checking at the same time.

Synapse 1.19.1rc1 (2020-08-25)
==============================
Bugfixes
--------
- Fix a bug introduced in v1.19.0 where appservices with ratelimiting disabled would still be ratelimited when joining rooms. ([\#8139](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8139))
- Fix a bug introduced in v1.19.0 that would cause e.g. profile updates to fail due to incorrect application of rate limits on join requests. ([\#8153](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8153))
`StatsHandler` handles updates to the `current_state_delta_stream`, and updates room stats such as the amount of state events, joined users, etc.
However, it counts every new join membership as a new user entering a room (and that user being in another room), whereas it's possible for a user's membership status to go from join -> join, for instance when they change their per-room profile information.
This PR adds a check for join->join membership transitions, and bails out early, as none of the further checks are necessary at that point.
Due to this bug, membership stats in many rooms have ended up being wildly larger than their true values. I am not sure if we also want to include a migration step which recalculates these statistics (possibly using the `_populate_stats_process_rooms` bg update).
Bug introduced in the initial implementation https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/4338.
Converts tests/rest/admin/test_room.py to have unix file endings after they were accidentally changed in #7613.
Keeping the same changelog as #7613 as it hasn't gone out in a release yet.
This table is no longer used, so we may as well stop populating it. Removing it
would prevent people rolling back to older releases of Synapse, so that can
happen in a future release.
The CI appears to use the latest version of isort, which is a problem when isort gets a major version bump. Rather than try to pin the version, I've done the necessary to make isort5 happy with synapse.
While working on https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5665 I found myself digging into the `Ratelimiter` class and seeing that it was both:
* Rather undocumented, and
* causing a *lot* of config checks
This PR attempts to refactor and comment the `Ratelimiter` class, as well as encourage config file accesses to only be done at instantiation.
Best to be reviewed commit-by-commit.

Documentation on setting up redis (#7446)
Rework UI Auth session validation for registration (#7455)
Fix errors from malformed log line (#7454)
Drop support for redis.dbid (#7450)
By persisting the user interactive authentication sessions to the database, this fixes
situations where a user hits different works throughout their auth session and also
allows sessions to persist through restarts of Synapse.
* Factor out functions for injecting events into database
I want to add some more flexibility to the tools for injecting events into the
database, and I don't want to clutter up HomeserverTestCase with them, so let's
factor them out to a new file.
* Rework TestReplicationDataHandler
This wasn't very easy to work with: the mock wrapping was largely superfluous,
and it's useful to be able to inspect the received rows, and clear out the
received list.
* Fix AssertionErrors being thrown by EventsStream
Part of the problem was that there was an off-by-one error in the assertion,
but also the limit logic was too simple. Fix it all up and add some tests.
That fallback sets the redirect URL to itself (so it can process the login
token then return gracefully to the client). This would make it pointless to
ask the user for confirmation, since the URL the confirmation page would be
showing wouldn't be the client's.
* Pull Sentinel out of LoggingContext
... and drop a few unnecessary references to it
* Factor out LoggingContext.current_context
move `current_context` and `set_context` out to top-level functions.
Mostly this means that I can more easily trace what's actually referring to
LoggingContext, but I think it's generally neater.
* move copy-to-parent into `stop`
this really just makes `start` and `stop` more symetric. It also means that it
behaves correctly if you manually `set_log_context` rather than using the
context manager.
* Replace `LoggingContext.alive` with `finished`
Turn `alive` into `finished` and make it a bit better defined.
Currently we rely on `current_state_events` to figure out what rooms a
user was in and their last membership event in there. However, if the
server leaves the room then the table may be cleaned up and that
information is lost. So lets add a table that separately holds that
information.
This was ill-advised. We can't modify verify_keys here, because the response
object has already been signed by the requested key.
Furthermore, it's somewhat unnecessary because existing versions of Synapse
(which get upset that the notary key isn't present in verify_keys) will fall
back to a direct fetch via `/key/v2/server`.
Also: more tests for fetching keys via perspectives: it would be nice if we actually tested when our fetcher can't talk to our notary impl.
* Kill off redundant SynapseRequestFactory
We already get the Site via the Channel, so there's no need for a dedicated
RequestFactory: we can just use the right constructor.
* Workaround for error when fetching notary's own key
As a notary server, when we return our own keys, include all of our signing
keys in verify_keys.
This is a workaround for #6596.
Implement part [MSC2228](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2228). The parts that differ are:
* the feature is hidden behind a configuration flag (`enable_ephemeral_messages`)
* self-destruction doesn't happen for state events
* only implement support for the `m.self_destruct_after` field (not the `m.self_destruct` one)
* doesn't send synthetic redactions to clients because for this specific case we consider the clients to be able to destroy an event themselves, instead we just censor it (by pruning its JSON) in the database
This fixed the weirdness of 400 vs 404 as http status code in the case
the filter id is not known by the server.
As e.g. matrix-js-sdk expects 404 to catch this situation this leads
to unwanted behaviour.
Hopefully this will fix the occasional failures we were seeing in the room directory.
The problem was that events are not necessarily persisted (and `current_state_delta_stream` updated) in the same order as their stream_id. So for instance current_state_delta 9 might be persisted *before* current_state_delta 8. Then, when the room stats saw stream_id 9, it assumed it had done everything up to 9, and never came back to do stream_id 8.
We can solve this easily by only processing up to the stream_id where we know all events have been persisted.
Pull the checkers out to their own classes, rather than having them lost in a
massive 1000-line class which does everything.
This is also preparation for some more intelligent advertising of flows, as per #6100
because, frankly, it looked like it was written by an axe-murderer.
This should be a non-functional change, except that where `m.login.dummy` was
previously advertised *before* `m.login.terms`, it will now be advertised
afterwards. AFAICT that should have no effect, and will be more consistent with
the flows that involve passing a 3pid.
Python will return a tuple whether there are parentheses around the returned values or not.
I'm just sick of my editor complaining about this all over the place :)
We can now use `_get_events_from_cache_or_db` rather than going right back to
the database, which means that (a) we can benefit from caching, and (b) it
opens the way forward to more extensive checks on the original event.
We now always require the original event to exist before we will serve up a
redaction.
When asking for the relations of an event, include the original event in the response. This will mostly be used for efficiently showing edit history, but could be useful in other circumstances.
When enabling the account validity feature, Synapse will look at startup for registered account without an expiration date, and will set one equals to 'now + validity_period' for them. On large servers, it can mean that a large number of users will have the same expiration date, which means that they will all be sent a renewal email at the same time, which isn't ideal.
In order to mitigate this, this PR allows server admins to define a 'max_delta' so that the expiration date is a random value in the [now + validity_period ; now + validity_period + max_delta] range. This allows renewal emails to be progressively sent over a configured period instead of being sent all in one big batch.
Replaces DEFAULT_ROOM_VERSION constant with a method that first checks the config, then returns a hardcoded value if the option is not present.
That hardcoded value is now located in the server.py config file.
If account validity is enabled in the server's configuration, this job will run at startup as a background job and will stick an expiration date to any registered account missing one.
Prevents a SynapseError being raised inside of a IResolutionReceiver and instead opts to just return 0 results. This thus means that we have to lump a failed lookup and a blacklisted lookup together with the same error message, but the substitute should be generic enough to cover both cases.
This commit adds two config options:
* `restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users`
Requires auth to fetch the public rooms directory through the CS API and disables fetching it through the federation API.
* `require_auth_for_profile_requests`
When set to `true`, requires that requests to `/profile` over the CS API are authenticated, and only returns the user's profile if the requester shares a room with the profile's owner, as per MSC1301.
MSC1301 also specifies a behaviour for federation (only returning the profile if the server asking for it shares a room with the profile's owner), but that's currently really non-trivial to do in a not too expensive way. Next step is writing down a MSC that allows a HS to specify which user sent the profile query. In this implementation, Synapse won't send a profile query over federation if it doesn't believe it already shares a room with the profile's owner, though.

This endpoint isn't much use for its intended purpose if you first need to get
yourself an admin's auth token.
I've restricted it to the `/_synapse/admin` path to make it a bit easier to
lock down for those concerned about exposing this information. I don't imagine
anyone is using it in anger currently.
