From 8c97f6414cf322fc5b42a92ed0df2fb70bfab3fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard van der Hoff <1389908+richvdh@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2019 08:25:02 +0100 Subject: Remove non-functional 'expire_access_token' setting (#5782) The `expire_access_token` didn't do what it sounded like it should do. What it actually did was make Synapse enforce the 'time' caveat on macaroons used as access tokens, but since our access token macaroons never contained such a caveat, it was always a no-op. (The code to add 'time' caveats was removed back in v0.18.5, in #1656) --- synapse/config/key.py | 6 ------ 1 file changed, 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'synapse/config') diff --git a/synapse/config/key.py b/synapse/config/key.py index 8fc74f9cdf..fe8386985c 100644 --- a/synapse/config/key.py +++ b/synapse/config/key.py @@ -116,8 +116,6 @@ class KeyConfig(Config): seed = bytes(self.signing_key[0]) self.macaroon_secret_key = hashlib.sha256(seed).digest() - self.expire_access_token = config.get("expire_access_token", False) - # a secret which is used to calculate HMACs for form values, to stop # falsification of values self.form_secret = config.get("form_secret", None) @@ -144,10 +142,6 @@ class KeyConfig(Config): # %(macaroon_secret_key)s - # Used to enable access token expiration. - # - #expire_access_token: False - # a secret which is used to calculate HMACs for form values, to stop # falsification of values.
