This is an extract from PR #9175, which can be reviewed in isolation to
reduce the volume of changes to review all at once in #9175. There are
about to be several services and API handlers that read and set cookies
and session state, so this abstraction will prove helpful.
In particular a motivating cause for this is that with the current
architecture in PR #9175, in `api.go` the [`webauthnService` needs to
access the
session](https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/pull/9175/files#diff-e2e14f22d818b8e635572ef0ee7718dee875c365e07225d760a6faae8be7772dR309-R310)
for authentication purposes but needs to be instantiated before the
`configMuxBuilder` for config purposes, because the WebAuthn additions
to config management need to perform WebAuthn registration ceremonies,
but currently the session management is embedded in the
`basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` which is [instantiated much
later](https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/pull/9175/files#diff-e2e14f22d818b8e635572ef0ee7718dee875c365e07225d760a6faae8be7772dL371-R380)
and only if authentication is enabled in `guiCfg`. This refactorization
extracts the session management out from `basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware`
so that `basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` and `webauthnService` can both
use the same shared session management service to perform session
management logic.
### Testing
This is a refactorization intended to not change any externally
observable behaviour, so existing tests (e.g., `api_auth_test.go`)
should cover this where appropriate. I have manually verified that:
- Appending `+ "foo"` to the cookie name in `createSession` causes
`TestHtmlFormLogin/invalid_URL_returns_403_before_auth_and_404_after_auth`
and `TestHtmlFormLogin/UTF-8_auth_works` to fail
- Inverting the return value of `hasValidSession` cases a whole bunch of
tests in `TestHTTPLogin` and `TestHtmlFormLogin` to fail
- (Fixed) Changing the cookie to `MaxAge: 1000` in `destroySession` does
NOT cause any tests to fail!
- Added tests `TestHtmlFormLogin/Logout_removes_the_session_cookie`,
`TestHTTPLogin/*/Logout_removes_the_session_cookie`,
`TestHtmlFormLogin/Session_cookie_is_invalid_after_logout` and
`TestHTTPLogin/200_path#01/Session_cookie_is_invalid_after_logout` to
cover this.
- Manually verified that these tests pass both before and after the
changes in this PR, and that changing the cookie to `MaxAge: 1000` or
not calling `m.tokens.Delete(cookie.Value)` in `destroySession` makes
the respective pair of tests fail.
Somewhere along the way, the non-parallel test became parallel, and at
that point, timeouts occurred. Parallel is better, so increase the
timeout on the offending call a bit...
This adds a "token manager" which handles storing and checking expired
tokens, used for both sessions and CSRF tokens. It removes the old,
corresponding functionality for CSRFs which saved things in a file. The
result is less crap in the state directory, and active login sessions
now survive a Syncthing restart (this really annoyed me).
It also adds a boolean on login to create a longer-lived session cookie,
which is now possible and useful. Thus we can remain logged in over
browser restarts, which was also annoying... :)

Best viewed with whitespace-insensitive diff, as a bunch of the auth
functions became methods instead of closures which changed indentation.
This is motivated by the Android app:
https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-android/pull/1982#issuecomment-1752042554
The planned fix in response to basic auth behaviour changing in #8757
was to add the `Authorization` header when opening the WebView, but it
turns out the function used only applies the header to the initial page
load, not any subsequent script loads or AJAX calls. The
`basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` checks for no-auth exceptions before
checking the `Authorization` header, so the header has no effect on the
initial page load since the `/` path is a no-auth exception. Thus the
Android app fails to log in when opening the WebView.
This changes the order of checks in `basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware` so
that the `Authorization` header is always checked if present, and a
session cookie is set if it is valid. Only after that does the
middleware fall back to checking for no-auth exceptions.
`api_test.go` has been expanded with additional checks:
- Check that a session cookie is set whenever correct basic auth is
provided.
- Check that a session cookie is not set when basic auth is incorrect.
- Check that a session cookie is not set when authenticating with an API
token (either via `X-Api-Key` or `Authorization: Bearer`).
And an additional test case:
- Check that requests to `/` always succeed, but receive a session
cookie when correct basic auth is provided.
I have manually verified that
- The new assertions fail if the `createSession` call is removed in
`basicAuthAndSessionMiddleware`.
- The new test cases in e6e4df4d7034302b729ada6d91cff6e2b29678da fail
before the change in 0e47d37e738d4c15736c496e01cd949afb372e71 is
applied.
Currently, historically, we look for the `X-API-Key` header to
authenticate with an API key. There's nothing wrong with this, but in
some scenarios it's easier to produce an `Authorization` header with a
`Bearer $token` content, which is nowadays more common. This change adds
support for both, so that we will accept an API key either in our custom
header or as a bearer token.
This fixes various test issues with Go 1.20.
- Most tests rewritten to use fakefs where possible
- Some tests that were already skipped, or dubious (invasive,
unmaintainable, unclear what they even tested) have been removed
- Some actual code rewritten to better support testing in fakefs

all: Add package runtimeos for runtime.GOOS comparisons
I grew tired of hand written string comparisons. This adds generated
constants for the GOOS values, and predefined Is$OS constants that can
be iffed on. In a couple of places I rewrote trivial switch:es to if:s,
and added Illumos where we checked for Solaris (because they are
effectively the same, and if we're going to target one of them that
would be Illumos...).
An off-by-one error could cause tokens to be forgotten. Suppose
tokens := []string{"foo", "bar", "baz", "quux"}
i := 2
token := tokens[i] // token == "baz"
Then, after
copy(tokens[1:], tokens[:i+1])
tokens[0] = token
we have
tokens == []string{"baz", "foo", "bar", "baz"}
The short test actually relied on this bug.
This commit replaces `os.MkdirTemp` with `t.TempDir` in tests. The
directory created by `t.TempDir` is automatically removed when the test
and all its subtests complete.
Prior to this commit, temporary directory created using `os.MkdirTemp`
needs to be removed manually by calling `os.RemoveAll`, which is omitted
in some tests. The error handling boilerplate e.g.
defer func() {
if err := os.RemoveAll(dir); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
}
is also tedious, but `t.TempDir` handles this for us nicely.

LoadOrGenerateCertificate() takes two file path arguments, but then
uses the locations package to determine the actual path. Fix that
with a minimally invasive change, by using the arguments instead.
Factor out GenerateCertificate().
The only caller of this function is cmd/syncthing, which passes the
same values, so this is technically a no-op.
* lib/tlsutil: Make storing generated certificate optional. Avoid
temporary cert and key files in tests, keep cert in memory.
* Trigger connection loop on config device addition (fixes#7600)
* Also check for device address equality
* Move EqualStrings from api_test to utils, and use in connections/service.go
* Make sure CommitConfiguration cannot block due on the deviceAddressesChanged channel
* Update lib/connections/service.go

This loosens the ‘is this localhost?’ check to include *.localhost host
names.
This allows for clearer (hence better) names to be used in browsers,
e.g. when accessing a remote syncthing instance ‘foo’ using a ssh port
forward, one can use foo.localhost to remind oneself which one is which.
💡 Without these changes, Syncthing shows a ‘Host check error’ when
pointing a browser at http://foo.localhost/, and with these changes, the
interface loads as usual.
The .localhost top level domain is a reserved top-level domain (RFC 2606):
> The ".localhost" TLD has traditionally been statically defined in
> host DNS implementations as having an A record pointing to the
> loop back IP address and is reserved for such use. Any other use
> would conflict with widely deployed code which assumes this use.
> – https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2606
As Wikipedia puts it:
> This allows the use of these names for either documentation purposes
or in local testing scenarios. – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.localhost
On Linux systems, systemd-resolved resolves *.localhost, on purpose:
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-resolved.service.html

Our authentication is based on device ID (certificate fingerprint) but
we also check the certificate name for ... historical extra security
reasons. (I don't think this adds anything but it is what it is.) Since
that check breaks in Go 1.15 this change does two things:
- Adds a manual check for the peer certificate CommonName, and if they
are equal we are happy and don't call the more advanced
VerifyHostname() function. This allows our old style certificates to
still pass the check.
- Adds the cert name "syncthing" as a DNS SAN when generating the
certificate. This is the correct way nowadays and makes VerifyHostname()
happy in Go 1.15 as well, even without the above patch.
Storing assets as []byte requires every compiled-in asset to be copied
into writable memory at program startup. That currently takes up 1.6MB
per syncthing process. Strings stay in the RODATA section and should be
shared between processes running the same binary.
- In the few places where we wrap errors, use the new Go 1.13 "%w"
construction instead of %s or %v.
- Where we create errors with constant strings, consistently use
errors.New and not fmt.Errorf.
- Remove capitalization from errors in the few places where we had that.
This adds a certificate lifetime parameter to our certificate generation
and hard codes it to twenty years in some uninteresting places. In the
main binary there are a couple of constants but it results in twenty
years for the device certificate and 820 days for the HTTPS one. 820 is
less than the 825 maximum Apple allows nowadays.
This also means we must be prepared for certificates to expire, so I add
some handling for that and generate a new certificate when needed. For
self signed certificates we regenerate a month ahead of time. For other
certificates we leave well enough alone.
This is an experiment in testing, based on the advise to always call
t.Parallel() at the start of every test. Doing so makes tests run in
parallel, which is usually faster, but also exposes package level state
and potential race conditions better.
To support this I had to redesign the CSRF manager to not be package
global, which was indeed an improvement. And tests run five times faster
now.
