It's not really a problem to trust notary responses signed by the old key so
long as we are also doing TLS validation.
This commit adds a check to the config parsing code at startup to check that
we do not have the insecure matrix.org key without tls validation, and refuses
to start without it.
This allows us to remove the rather alarming-looking warning which happens at
runtime.
When we try and calculate a description for a room for with no name but
multiple other users we threw an exception (due to trying to subscript
result of `dict.values()`).
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
There are a few changes going on here:
* We make checking the signature on a key server response optional: if no
verify_keys are specified, we trust to TLS to validate the connection.
* We change the default config so that it does not require responses to be
signed by the old key.
* We replace the old 'perspectives' config with 'trusted_key_servers', which
is also formatted slightly differently.
* We emit a warning to the logs every time we trust a key server response
signed by the old key.
* Fix background updates to handle redactions/rejections
In background updates based on current state delta stream we need to
handle that we may not have all the events (or at least that
`get_events` may raise an exception).
Also:
* rename VerifyKeyRequest->VerifyJsonRequest
* calculate key_ids on VerifyJsonRequest construction
* refactor things to pass around VerifyJsonRequests instead of 4-tuples
FederationClient.get_pdu is called in a loop to fetch a batch of PDUs. A
failure to fetch one should not result in a failure of the whole batch. Add the
missing `continue`.
We have too many things called get_event, and it's hard to figure out what we
mean. Also remove some unused params from the signature, and add some logging.
It takes at least 20 minutes to work through the long_retries schedule (11
attempts, each with a 60 second timeout, and 60 seconds between each request),
so if the notary server isn't returning within the timeout, we'll just end up
blocking whatever request is happening for 20 minutes.
Ain't nobody got time for that.
When handling incoming federation requests, make sure that we have an
up-to-date copy of the signing key.
We do not yet enforce the validity period for event signatures.
When processing an incoming event over federation, we may try and
resolve any unexpected differences in auth events. This is a
non-essential process and so should not stop the processing of the event
if it fails (e.g. due to the remote disappearing or not implementing the
necessary endpoints).
Fixes#3330
We have to do this by re-inserting a background update and recreating
tables, as the tables only get created during a background update and
will later be deleted.
We also make sure that we remove any entries that should have been
removed but weren't due to a race that has been fixed in a previous
commit.
The verify_request deferred already returns a suitable SynapseError, so I don't
really know what we expect to achieve by doing more wrapping, other than log
spam.
Fixes#4278.
When we receive a soft failed event we, correctly, *do not* update the
forward extremity table with the event. However, if we later receive an
event that references the soft failed event we then need to remove the
soft failed events prev events from the forward extremities table,
otherwise we just build up forward extremities.
Fixes#5269
This fixes a bug which were causing the "event_format" field to be
ignored in the filter of requests to the `/messages` endpoint of the
CS API.

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.
The list of server names was redundant, since it was equivalent to the keys on
the server_to_deferred map. This reduces the number of large lists being passed
around, and has the benefit of deduplicating the entries in `wait_on`.
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.
Rather than have three methods which have to have the same interface,
factor out a separate interface which is provided by three implementations.
I find it easier to grok the code this way.
This is a first step to checking that the key is valid at the required moment.
The idea here is that, rather than passing VerifyKey objects in and out of the
storage layer, we instead pass FetchKeyResult objects, which simply wrap the
VerifyKey and add a valid_until_ts field.
* Pass time_added_ms into process_v2_response
* Simplify process_v2_response
We can merge old_verify_keys into verify_keys, and reduce the number of dicts
flying around.
Storing server keys hammered the database a bit. This replaces the
implementation which stored a single key, with one which can do many updates at
once.
I was staring at this function trying to figure out wtf it was actually
doing. This is (hopefully) a non-functional refactor which makes it a bit
clearer.
If we remove support for a particular room version, we should behave more
gracefully. This should make client requests fail with a 400 rather than a 500,
and will ignore individiual PDUs in a federation transaction, rather than the
whole transaction.
This reverts commit ce5bcefc60.

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.
We checked that 3pids were not already in use before we checked if
we were going to return the account previously registered in the
same UI auth session, in which case the 3pids will definitely
be in use.

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.
It's more natural for the user if the bit that takes them away
from the registration flow comes last. Adding the dummy stage allows
us to do the stages in this order without the ambiguity.
This allows the client to complete the email last which is more
natual for the user. Without this stage, if the client would
complete the recaptcha (and terms, if enabled) stages and then the
registration request would complete because you've now completed a
flow, even if you were intending to complete the flow that's the
same except has email auth at the end.
Adding a dummy auth stage to the recaptcha-only flow means it's
always unambiguous which flow the client was trying to complete.
Longer term we should think about changing the protocol so the
client explicitly says which flow it's trying to complete.

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.
Groups have been intentionally omitted from this commit.
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.
