There are authentication backends such as Shibboleth that do send no Basic Auth credentials for DAV requests. This means that the ownCloud DAV backend would consider these requests coming from an untrusted source and require higher levels of security checks. (e.g. a CSRF check)
While an elegant solution would rely on authenticating via token (so that one can properly ensure that the request came indeed from a trusted client) this is a okay'ish workaround for this problem until we have something more reliable in the authentication code.
This adds a new CSRF manager for unit testing purposes, it's interface is based upon https://github.com/symfony/security-csrf. Due to some of our required custom changes it is however not possible to use the Symfony component directly.
While BREACH requires the following three factors to be effectively exploitable we should add another mitigation:
1. Application must support HTTP compression
2. Response most reflect user-controlled input
3. Response should contain sensitive data
Especially part 2 is with ownCloud not really given since user-input is usually only echoed if a CSRF token has been passed.
To reduce the risk even further it is however sensible to encrypt the CSRF token with a shared secret. Since this will change on every request an attack such as BREACH is not feasible anymore against the CSRF token at least.
There are cases where no trusted host is specified such as when installing the instance, this lead to an undefined offset warning in the log right after installing. (when another domain than localhost or 127.0.0.1 was used)
Doing this in the PHP code is not the right approach for multiple reasons:
1. A bug in the PHP code prevents them from being added to the response.
2. They are only added when something is served via PHP and not in other cases (that makes for example the newest IE UXSS which is not yet patched by Microsoft exploitable on ownCloud)
3. Some headers such as the Strict-Transport-Security might require custom modifications by administrators. This was not possible before and lead to buggy situations.
This pull request moves those headers out of the PHP code and adds a security check to the admin settings performed via JS.
X-Forwarded-Proto contains a list of protocols if ownCloud is behind multiple reverse proxies.
This is a revival of https://github.com/owncloud/core/pull/11157 using the new IRequest public API.
- VObject fixes for Sabre\VObject 3.3
- Remove VObject property workarounds
- Added prefetching for tags in sabre tags plugin
- Moved oc_properties logic to separate PropertyStorage backend (WIP)
- Fixed Sabre connector namespaces
- Improved files plugin to handle props on-demand
- Moved allowed props from server class to files plugin
- Fixed tags caching for files that are known to have no tags
(less queries)
- Added/fixed unit tests for Sabre FilesPlugin, TagsPlugin
- Replace OC\Connector\Sabre\Request with direct call to
httpRequest->setUrl()
- Fix exception detection in DAV client when using Sabre\DAV\Client
- Added setETag() on Node instead of using the static FileSystem
- Also preload tags/props when depth is infinity
This changeset removes the static class `OC_Request` and moves the functions either into `IRequest` which is accessible via `\OC::$server::->getRequest()` or into a separated `TrustedDomainHelper` class for some helper methods which should not be publicly exposed.
This changes only internal methods and nothing on the public API. Some public functions in `util.php` have been deprecated though in favour of the new non-static functions.
Unfortunately some part of this code uses things like `__DIR__` and thus is not completely unit-testable. Where tests where possible they ahve been added though.
Fixes https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/13976 which was requested in https://github.com/owncloud/core/pull/13973#issuecomment-73492969
When `mod_unique_id` is enabled the ID generated by it will be used for logging. This allows for correlation of the Apache logs and the ownCloud logs.
Testplan:
- [ ] When `mod_unique_id` is enabled the request ID equals the one generated by `mod_unique_id`.
- [ ] When `mod_unique_id` is not available the request ID is a 20 character long random string
- [ ] The generated Id is stable over the lifespan of one request
Changeset looks a little bit larger since I had to adjust every unit test using the HTTP\Request class for proper DI.
Fixes https://github.com/owncloud/core/issues/13366
