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.
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.
* Don't raise session_id errors on submit_token if request_token_inhibit_3pid_errors is set
* Changelog
* Also wait some time before responding to /requestToken
* Incorporate review
* Update synapse/storage/databases/main/registration.py

Doing a password reset via SMS has never worked, and in any case is a silly
idea because msisdn recycling is a thing.

Implements MSC2290. This PR adds two new endpoints, /unstable/account/3pid/add and /unstable/account/3pid/bind. Depending on the progress of that MSC the unstable prefix may go away.
This PR also removes the blacklist on some 3PID tests which occurs in #6042, as the corresponding Sytest PR changes them to use the new endpoints.
Finally, it also modifies the account deactivation code such that it doesn't just try to deactivate 3PIDs that were bound to the user's account, but any 3PIDs that were bound through the homeserver on that user's account.
Remove trailing slash ability from the password reset submit_token endpoint. Since we provide the link in an email, and have never sent it with a trailing slash, there's no point for us to accept them on the endpoint.
Removes the POST method from `/password_reset/<medium>/submit_token/` as it's only used by phone number verification which Synapse does not support yet.
This is a combination of a few different PRs, finally all being merged into `develop`:
* #5875
* #5876
* #5868 (This one added the `/versions` flag but the flag itself was actually [backed out](891afb57cb (diff-e591d42d30690ffb79f63bb726200891)) in #5969. What's left is just giving /versions access to the config file, which could be useful in the future)
* #5835
* #5969
* #5940
Clients should not actually use the new registration functionality until https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/5972 is merged.
UPGRADE.rst, changelog entries and config file changes should all be reviewed closely before this PR is merged.
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 :)
Fixes#5833
The emailconfig code was attempting to pull incorrect config file names. This corrects that, while also marking a difference between a config file variable that's a filepath versus a str containing HTML.
Moves the warning about password resets being disabled to the point where a user actually tries to reset their password. Is this an appropriate place for it to happen?
Also removed the disabling of msisdn password resets when you don't have an email config, as that just doesn't make sense.
Also change the error a user receives upon disabled passwords to specify that only email-based password reset is disabled.
Sends password reset emails from the homeserver instead of proxying to the identity server. This is now the default behaviour for security reasons. If you wish to continue proxying password reset requests to the identity server you must now enable the email.trust_identity_server_for_password_resets option.
This PR is a culmination of 3 smaller PRs which have each been separately reviewed:
* #5308
* #5345
* #5368
