From 1c4f05db41eab20f8be4ac2dac0f7e86b0b7e1fd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard van der Hoff Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2016 09:55:21 +0000 Subject: Stop putting a time caveat on access tokens The 'time' caveat on the access tokens was something of a lie, since we weren't enforcing it; more pertinently its presence stops us ever adding useful time caveats. Let's move in the right direction by not lying in our caveats. --- synapse/api/auth.py | 4 ++++ synapse/config/registration.py | 6 ------ synapse/handlers/auth.py | 11 ++++++----- synapse/handlers/register.py | 5 ++--- synapse/rest/client/v1/register.py | 12 ------------ 5 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) (limited to 'synapse') diff --git a/synapse/api/auth.py b/synapse/api/auth.py index 1ab27da941..77ff55cddf 100644 --- a/synapse/api/auth.py +++ b/synapse/api/auth.py @@ -810,6 +810,10 @@ class Auth(object): else: v.satisfy_general(lambda c: c.startswith("time < ")) + # access_tokens and refresh_tokens include a nonce for uniqueness: any + # value is acceptable + v.satisfy_general(lambda c: c.startswith("nonce = ")) + v.verify(macaroon, self.hs.config.macaroon_secret_key) def _verify_expiry(self, caveat): diff --git a/synapse/config/registration.py b/synapse/config/registration.py index cc3f879857..87e500c97a 100644 --- a/synapse/config/registration.py +++ b/synapse/config/registration.py @@ -32,7 +32,6 @@ class RegistrationConfig(Config): ) self.registration_shared_secret = config.get("registration_shared_secret") - self.user_creation_max_duration = int(config["user_creation_max_duration"]) self.bcrypt_rounds = config.get("bcrypt_rounds", 12) self.trusted_third_party_id_servers = config["trusted_third_party_id_servers"] @@ -55,11 +54,6 @@ class RegistrationConfig(Config): # secret, even if registration is otherwise disabled. registration_shared_secret: "%(registration_shared_secret)s" - # Sets the expiry for the short term user creation in - # milliseconds.
