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.
* Expose `return_html_error`, and allow it to take a Jinja2 template instead of a raw string
* Clean up exception handling in SAML2ResponseResource
* use the existing code in `return_html_error` instead of re-implementing it
(giving it a jinja2 template rather than inventing a new form of template)
* do the exception-catching in the REST layer rather than in the handler
layer, to make sure we catch all exceptions.
The idea here is that if an instance persists an event via the replication HTTP API it can return before we receive that event over replication, which can lead to races where code assumes that persisting an event immediately updates various caches (e.g. current state of the room).
Most of Synapse doesn't hit such races, so we don't do the waiting automagically, instead we do so where necessary to avoid unnecessary delays. We may decide to change our minds here if it turns out there are a lot of subtle races going on.
People probably want to look at this 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.
If an error happened while processing a SAML AuthN response, or a client
ends up doing a `GET` request to `/authn_response`, then render a
customisable error page rather than a confusing error.
... and set it everywhere it's called.
while we're here, rename it for consistency with `check_user_in_room` (and to
help check that I haven't missed any instances)
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.
* Remove redundant python2 support code
`str.decode()` doesn't exist on python3, so presumably this code was doing
nothing
* Filter out pushers with corrupt data
When we get a row with unparsable json, drop the row, rather than returning a
row with null `data`, which will then cause an explosion later on.
* Improve logging when we can't start a pusher
Log the ID to help us understand the problem
* Make email pusher setup more robust
We know we'll have a `data` member, since that comes from the database. What we
*don't* know is if that is a dict, and if that has a `brand` member, and if
that member is a string.
We were doing this in a number of places which meant that some login
code paths incremented the counter multiple times.
It was also applying ratelimiting to UIA endpoints, which was probably
not intentional.
In particular, some custom auth modules were calling
`check_user_exists`, which incremented the counters, meaning that people
would fail to login sometimes.
The `http_proxy` and `HTTPS_PROXY` env vars can be set to a `host[:port]` value which should point to a proxy.
The address of the proxy should be excluded from IP blacklists such as the `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist`.
The proxy will then be used for
* push
* url previews
* phone-home stats
* recaptcha validation
* CAS auth validation
It will *not* be used for:
* Application Services
* Identity servers
* Outbound federation
* In worker configurations, connections from workers to masters
Fixes#4198.
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.
Pillow will use nearest neighbour as the resampling algorithm if the
source image is either 1-bit or a color palette using 8 bits. If we
convert to RGB before scaling, we'll probably get a better result.
Doing a password reset via SMS has never worked, and in any case is a silly
idea because msisdn recycling is a thing.
See also matrix-org/matrix-doc#2303.
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.
As MSC2263 states, m.require_identity_server must be set to false when it does not require an identity server to be provided by the client for the purposes of email registration or password reset.
Adds an m.require_identity_server flag to /versionss unstable_flags section. This will advertise that Synapse no longer needs id_server as a parameter.
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.
Fixes#6066
This register endpoint should be disabled if registration is disabled, otherwise we're giving anyone the ability to check if a username exists on a server when we don't need to be.
Error code is 403 (Forbidden) as that's the same returned by /register when registration is disabled.
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.
We want to assign unique mxids to saml users based on an incrementing
suffix. For that to work, we need to record the allocated mxid in a separate
table.
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.
* Ensure the list media admin API is always available
This API is required for some external media repo implementations to operate (mostly for doing quarantine operations on a room).
* changelog
Remove all the "double return" statements which were a result of us removing all the instances of
```
defer.returnValue(...)
return
```
statements when we switched to python3 fully.
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 :)
