# IndieAuth Protocol Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
## Specification Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
This document describes Gondulf's implementation of the W3C IndieAuth specification.
|
||||
|
||||
**Primary Reference**: https://www.w3.org/TR/indieauth/
|
||||
**Reference Implementation**: https://github.com/aaronpk/indielogin.com
|
||||
|
||||
**Compliance Target**: Any compliant IndieAuth client MUST be able to authenticate successfully against Gondulf.
|
||||
|
||||
## Protocol Overview
|
||||
|
||||
IndieAuth is built on OAuth 2.0, extending it to enable decentralized authentication where users are identified by URLs (typically their own domain) rather than accounts on centralized services.
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Principle
|
||||
Users prove ownership of a domain, and that domain becomes their identity. No usernames, no passwords stored by the server.
|
||||
|
||||
### IndieAuth vs OAuth 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
**Similarities**:
|
||||
- Authorization code flow
|
||||
- Token endpoint for code exchange
|
||||
- State parameter for CSRF protection
|
||||
- Redirect-based flow
|
||||
|
||||
**Differences**:
|
||||
- User identity is a URL (`me` parameter), not an opaque user ID
|
||||
- No client secrets (all clients are "public clients")
|
||||
- Client IDs are URLs that must be fetchable
|
||||
- Domain ownership verification instead of password authentication
|
||||
|
||||
## v1.0.0 Scope
|
||||
|
||||
Gondulf v1.0.0 implements **authentication only** (not authorization):
|
||||
- Users can prove they own a domain
|
||||
- Tokens are issued but carry no permissions (scope)
|
||||
- Client applications can verify user identity
|
||||
- NO resource server capabilities
|
||||
- NO scope-based authorization
|
||||
|
||||
**Future versions** will add:
|
||||
- Authorization with scopes
|
||||
- Token refresh
|
||||
- Token revocation
|
||||
- Resource server capabilities
|
||||
|
||||
## Endpoints
|
||||
|
||||
### Discovery Endpoint (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
**URL**: `/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose**: Advertise server capabilities and endpoints per RFC 8414.
|
||||
|
||||
**Response** (JSON):
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"issuer": "https://auth.example.com",
|
||||
"authorization_endpoint": "https://auth.example.com/authorize",
|
||||
"token_endpoint": "https://auth.example.com/token",
|
||||
"response_types_supported": ["code"],
|
||||
"grant_types_supported": ["authorization_code"],
|
||||
"code_challenge_methods_supported": ["S256"],
|
||||
"token_endpoint_auth_methods_supported": ["none"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Notes**:
|
||||
- Optional for v1.0.0 but recommended
|
||||
- FastAPI endpoint: `GET /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
|
||||
- Static response (no database access)
|
||||
- Cache-Control: public, max-age=86400
|
||||
|
||||
### Authorization Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
**URL**: `/authorize`
|
||||
**Method**: GET
|
||||
**Purpose**: Initiate authentication flow
|
||||
|
||||
#### Required Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Description | Validation |
|
||||
|-----------|-------------|------------|
|
||||
| `me` | User's domain/URL | Must be valid URL, no fragments/credentials/ports |
|
||||
| `client_id` | Client application URL | Must be valid URL, must be fetchable |
|
||||
| `redirect_uri` | Where to send user after auth | Must be valid URL, must match client_id domain OR be registered |
|
||||
| `state` | CSRF protection token | Required, opaque string, returned unchanged |
|
||||
| `response_type` | Must be `code` | Exactly `code` for auth code flow |
|
||||
|
||||
#### Optional Parameters (v1.0.0)
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Description | v1.0.0 Behavior |
|
||||
|-----------|-------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| `scope` | Requested permissions | Ignored (authentication only) |
|
||||
| `code_challenge` | PKCE challenge | NOT supported in v1.0.0 |
|
||||
| `code_challenge_method` | PKCE method | NOT supported in v1.0.0 |
|
||||
|
||||
**PKCE Decision**: Deferred to post-v1.0.0 to maintain MVP simplicity. See ADR-003.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Request Validation Sequence
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Validate `response_type`**
|
||||
- MUST be exactly `code`
|
||||
- Error: `unsupported_response_type`
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Validate `me` parameter**
|
||||
- Must be a valid URL
|
||||
- Must NOT contain fragment (#)
|
||||
- Must NOT contain credentials (user:pass@)
|
||||
- Must NOT contain port (except :443 for HTTPS)
|
||||
- Must NOT be an IP address
|
||||
- Normalize: lowercase domain, remove trailing slash
|
||||
- Error: `invalid_request` with description
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Validate `client_id`**
|
||||
- Must be a valid URL
|
||||
- Must contain a domain component (not localhost in production)
|
||||
- Fetch client_id URL to retrieve app info (see Client Validation)
|
||||
- Error: `invalid_client` with description
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Validate `redirect_uri`**
|
||||
- Must be a valid URL
|
||||
- Must use HTTPS in production (HTTP allowed for localhost)
|
||||
- If domain differs from client_id domain:
|
||||
- Must match client_id subdomain pattern, OR
|
||||
- Must be registered in client metadata (future), OR
|
||||
- Display warning to user
|
||||
- Error: `invalid_request` with description
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Validate `state`**
|
||||
- Must be present
|
||||
- Must be non-empty string
|
||||
- Store for verification (not used server-side, returned to client)
|
||||
- Error: `invalid_request` with description
|
||||
|
||||
#### Client Validation
|
||||
|
||||
When `client_id` is provided, fetch the URL to retrieve application information:
|
||||
|
||||
**HTTP Request**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
GET https://client.example.com/
|
||||
Accept: text/html
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Extract Application Info**:
|
||||
- Look for `h-app` microformat in HTML
|
||||
- Extract: app name, icon, URL
|
||||
- Extract registered redirect URIs from `<link rel="redirect_uri">` tags
|
||||
- Cache result for 24 hours
|
||||
|
||||
**Fallback**:
|
||||
- If no h-app found, use domain name as app name
|
||||
- If no icon, use generic icon
|
||||
- If no redirect URIs registered, rely on domain matching
|
||||
|
||||
**Security**:
|
||||
- Follow redirects (max 5)
|
||||
- Timeout after 5 seconds
|
||||
- Validate SSL certificates
|
||||
- Reject non-200 responses
|
||||
- Log client_id fetch failures
|
||||
|
||||
#### Authentication Flow (v1.0.0: Email-based)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Domain Ownership Check**
|
||||
- Check if `me` domain has verified TXT record: `_gondulf.example.com` = `verified`
|
||||
- If found and cached, skip email verification
|
||||
- If not found, proceed to email verification
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Email Verification**
|
||||
- Display form requesting email address
|
||||
- Validate email is at `me` domain (e.g., `admin@example.com` for `https://example.com`)
|
||||
- Generate 6-digit verification code (cryptographically random)
|
||||
- Store code in memory with 15-minute TTL
|
||||
- Send code via SMTP
|
||||
- Display code entry form
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Code Verification**
|
||||
- User enters 6-digit code
|
||||
- Validate code matches and hasn't expired
|
||||
- Mark domain as verified (store in database)
|
||||
- Proceed to authorization
|
||||
|
||||
4. **User Consent**
|
||||
- Display authorization prompt:
|
||||
- "Sign in to [App Name] as [me]"
|
||||
- Show client_id full URL
|
||||
- Show redirect_uri if different domain
|
||||
- Show scope (future)
|
||||
- User approves or denies
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Authorization Code Generation**
|
||||
- Generate cryptographically secure code (32 bytes, base64url)
|
||||
- Store code in memory with 10-minute TTL
|
||||
- Store associated data:
|
||||
- `me` (user's domain)
|
||||
- `client_id`
|
||||
- `redirect_uri`
|
||||
- `state`
|
||||
- Timestamp
|
||||
- Code is single-use only
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Redirect to Client**
|
||||
```
|
||||
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
|
||||
Location: {redirect_uri}?code={code}&state={state}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Error Responses
|
||||
|
||||
Return error via redirect when possible:
|
||||
```
|
||||
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
|
||||
Location: {redirect_uri}?error={error}&error_description={description}&state={state}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Error Codes** (OAuth 2.0 standard):
|
||||
- `invalid_request` - Malformed request
|
||||
- `unauthorized_client` - Client not authorized
|
||||
- `access_denied` - User denied authorization
|
||||
- `unsupported_response_type` - response_type not `code`
|
||||
- `invalid_scope` - Invalid scope requested (future)
|
||||
- `server_error` - Internal server error
|
||||
- `temporarily_unavailable` - Server temporarily unavailable
|
||||
|
||||
When redirect not possible (invalid redirect_uri), display error page.
|
||||
|
||||
### Token Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
**URL**: `/token`
|
||||
**Method**: POST
|
||||
**Content-Type**: `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`
|
||||
**Purpose**: Exchange authorization code for access token
|
||||
|
||||
#### Required Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Description | Validation |
|
||||
|-----------|-------------|------------|
|
||||
| `grant_type` | Must be `authorization_code` | Exactly `authorization_code` |
|
||||
| `code` | Authorization code from /authorize | Must be valid, unexpired, unused |

|
||||
- Error: `invalid_request`
|
||||
|
||||
#### Token Generation
|
||||
|
||||
**v1.0.0 Implementation: Opaque Tokens**
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import secrets
|
||||
import hashlib
|
||||
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
|
||||
|
||||
# Generate token
|
||||
token = secrets.token_urlsafe(32) # 256 bits
|
||||
|
||||
# Store in database
|
||||
token_record = {
|
||||
"token_hash": hashlib.sha256(token.encode()).hexdigest(),
|
||||
"me": me,
|
||||
"client_id": client_id,
|
||||
"scope": "", # Empty for authentication-only
|
||||
"issued_at": datetime.utcnow(),
|
||||
"expires_at": datetime.utcnow() + timedelta(hours=1)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Why Opaque Tokens in v1.0.0**:
|
||||
- Simpler than JWT (no signing, no key rotation)
|
||||
- Easier to revoke (database lookup)
|
||||
- Sufficient for authentication-only use case
|
||||
- Can migrate to JWT in future versions
|
||||
|
||||
**Token Properties**:
|
||||
- Length: 43 characters (base64url of 32 bytes)
|
||||
- Entropy: 256 bits (cryptographically secure)
|
||||
- Storage: SHA-256 hash in database
|
||||
- Expiration: 1 hour (configurable)
|
||||
- Revocable: Delete from database
|
||||
|
||||
#### Success Response
|
||||
|
||||
**HTTP 200 OK**:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"access_token": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
|
||||
"token_type": "Bearer",
|
||||
"me": "https://example.com",
|
||||
"scope": ""
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Response Fields**:
|
||||
- `access_token`: The opaque token (43 characters)
|
||||
- `token_type`: Always `Bearer`
|
||||
- `me`: User's canonical domain URL (normalized)
|
||||
- `scope`: Empty string for authentication-only (future: space-separated scopes)
|
||||
|
||||
**Headers**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Content-Type: application/json
|
||||
Cache-Control: no-store
|
||||
Pragma: no-cache
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Error Responses
|
||||
|
||||
**HTTP 400 Bad Request**:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"error": "invalid_grant",
|
||||
"error_description": "Authorization code has expired"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Error Codes** (OAuth 2.0 standard):
|
||||
- `invalid_request` - Missing or invalid parameters
|
||||
- `invalid_client` - Client authentication failed
|
||||
- `invalid_grant` - Invalid or expired authorization code
|
||||
- `unauthorized_client` - Client not authorized for grant type
|
||||
- `unsupported_grant_type` - Grant type not `authorization_code`
|
||||
|
||||
### Token Verification Endpoint (Future)
|
||||
|
||||
**URL**: `/token/verify`
|
||||
**Method**: GET
|
||||
**Purpose**: Verify token validity (for resource servers)
|
||||
|
||||
**NOT implemented in v1.0.0** (authentication only, no resource servers).
|
||||
|
||||
Future implementation:
|
||||
```
|
||||
GET /token/verify
|
||||
Authorization: Bearer {token}
|
||||
|
||||
Response 200 OK:
|
||||
{
|
||||
"me": "https://example.com",
|
||||
"client_id": "https://client.example.com",
|
||||
"scope": ""
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Token Revocation Endpoint (Future)
|
||||
|
||||
**URL**: `/token/revoke`
|
||||
**Method**: POST
|
||||
**Purpose**: Revoke access token
|
||||
|
||||
**NOT implemented in v1.0.0**.
|
||||
|
||||
Future implementation per RFC 7009.
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Models
|
||||
|
||||
### Authorization Code (In-Memory)
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
{
|
||||
"code": "abc123...", # 43-char base64url
|
||||
"me": "https://example.com",
|
||||
"client_id": "https://client.example.com",
|
||||
"redirect_uri": "https://client.example.com/callback",
|
||||
"state": "client-provided-state",
|
||||
"created_at": datetime,
|
||||
"expires_at": datetime, # created_at + 10 minutes
|
||||
"used": False
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage**: Python dict with TTL management
|
||||
**Expiration**: 10 minutes (per spec: "shortly after")
|
||||
**Single-use**: Marked as used after redemption
|
||||
**Cleanup**: Automatic expiration via TTL
|
||||
|
||||
### Email Verification Code (In-Memory)
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
{
|
||||
"email": "admin@example.com",
|
||||
"code": "123456", # 6-digit string
|
||||
"domain": "example.com",
|
||||
"created_at": datetime,
|
||||
"expires_at": datetime, # created_at + 15 minutes
|
||||
"attempts": 0 # Rate limiting
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage**: Python dict with TTL management
|
||||
**Expiration**: 15 minutes
|
||||
**Rate Limiting**: Max 3 attempts per email
|
||||
**Cleanup**: Automatic expiration via TTL
|
||||
|
||||
### Access Token (SQLite)
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE tokens (
|
||||
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
|
||||
token_hash TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE, -- SHA-256 hash
|
||||
me TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
client_id TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
scope TEXT NOT NULL, -- Empty string for v1.0.0
|
||||
issued_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
|
||||
expires_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
|
||||
revoked BOOLEAN DEFAULT 0,
|
||||
|
||||
INDEX idx_token_hash (token_hash),
|
||||
INDEX idx_me (me),
|
||||
INDEX idx_expires_at (expires_at)
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Lookup**: By token_hash (constant-time comparison)
|
||||
**Expiration**: 1 hour default (configurable)
|
||||
**Revocation**: Set `revoked = 1` (future feature)
|
||||
**Cleanup**: Periodic deletion of expired tokens
|
||||
|
||||
### Verified Domain (SQLite)
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE domains (
|
||||
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
|
||||
domain TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE,
|
||||
verification_method TEXT NOT NULL, -- 'txt_record' or 'email'
|
||||
verified_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
|
||||
last_checked TIMESTAMP,
|
||||
txt_record_valid BOOLEAN DEFAULT 0,
|
||||
|
||||
INDEX idx_domain (domain)
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose**: Cache domain ownership verification
|
||||
**TXT Record**: Re-verified periodically (daily)
|
||||
**Email Verification**: Permanent unless admin deletes
|
||||
**Cleanup**: Optional (admin decision)
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
### URL Validation
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical**: Prevent open redirect and phishing attacks.
|
||||
|
||||
**`me` Validation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from urllib.parse import urlparse
|
||||
|
||||
def validate_me(me: str) -> tuple[bool, str, str]:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Validate me parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
Returns: (valid, normalized_me, error_message)
|
||||
"""
|
||||
parsed = urlparse(me)
|
||||
|
||||
# Must have scheme and netloc
|
||||
if not parsed.scheme or not parsed.netloc:
|
||||
return False, "", "me must be a complete URL"
|
||||
|
||||
# Must be HTTP or HTTPS
|
||||
if parsed.scheme not in ['http', 'https']:
|
||||
return False, "", "me must use http or https"
|
||||
|
||||
# No fragments
|
||||
if parsed.fragment:
|
||||
return False, "", "me must not contain fragment"
|
||||
|
||||
# No credentials
|
||||
if parsed.username or parsed.password:
|
||||
return False, "", "me must not contain credentials"
|
||||
|
||||
# No ports (except default)
|
||||
if parsed.port and not (parsed.port == 443 and parsed.scheme == 'https'):
|
||||
return False, "", "me must not contain non-standard port"
|
||||
|
||||
# No IP addresses
|
||||
import ipaddress
|
||||
try:
|
||||
ipaddress.ip_address(parsed.netloc)
|
||||
return False, "", "me must be a domain, not IP address"
|
||||
except ValueError:
|
||||
pass # Good, not an IP
|
||||
|
||||
# Normalize
|
||||
domain = parsed.netloc.lower()
|
||||
path = parsed.path.rstrip('/')
|
||||
normalized = f"{parsed.scheme}://{domain}{path}"
|
||||
|
||||
return True, normalized, ""
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**`redirect_uri` Validation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def validate_redirect_uri(redirect_uri: str, client_id: str) -> tuple[bool, str]:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Validate redirect_uri against client_id.
|
||||
|
||||
Returns: (valid, error_message)
|
||||
"""
|
||||
parsed_redirect = urlparse(redirect_uri)
|
||||
parsed_client = urlparse(client_id)
|
||||
|
||||
# Must be valid URL
|
||||
if not parsed_redirect.scheme or not parsed_redirect.netloc:
|
||||
return False, "redirect_uri must be a complete URL"
|
||||
|
||||
# Must be HTTPS in production (allow HTTP for localhost)
|
||||
if not DEBUG:
|
||||
if parsed_redirect.scheme != 'https':
|
||||
if parsed_redirect.netloc != 'localhost':
|
||||
return False, "redirect_uri must use HTTPS"
|
||||
|
||||
redirect_domain = parsed_redirect.netloc.lower()
|
||||
client_domain = parsed_client.netloc.lower()
|
||||
|
||||
# Same domain: OK
|
||||
if redirect_domain == client_domain:
|
||||
return True, ""
|
||||
|
||||
# Subdomain of client domain: OK
|
||||
if redirect_domain.endswith('.' + client_domain):
|
||||
return True, ""
|
||||
|
||||
# Different domain: Check if registered (future)
|
||||
# For v1.0.0: Display warning to user
|
||||
return True, "warning: redirect_uri domain differs from client_id"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Constant-Time Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
Prevent timing attacks on token verification:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import secrets
|
||||
|
||||
def verify_token(provided_token: str, stored_hash: str) -> bool:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Verify token using constant-time comparison.
|
||||
"""
|
||||
import hashlib
|
||||
provided_hash = hashlib.sha256(provided_token.encode()).hexdigest()
|
||||
return secrets.compare_digest(provided_hash, stored_hash)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### CSRF Protection
|
||||
|
||||
**State Parameter**:
|
||||
- Client generates unguessable state
|
||||
- Server returns state unchanged
|
||||
- Client verifies state matches
|
||||
- Server does NOT validate state (client's responsibility)
|
||||
|
||||
### HTTPS Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
**Production Requirements**:
|
||||
- All endpoints MUST use HTTPS
|
||||
- HTTP allowed only for localhost in development
|
||||
- HSTS header recommended: `Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000`
|
||||
|
||||
### Rate Limiting (Future)
|
||||
|
||||
**v1.0.0**: Not implemented (acceptable for small deployments).
|
||||
|
||||
**Future versions**:
|
||||
- Authorization requests: 10/minute per IP
|
||||
- Token requests: 30/minute per client_id
|
||||
- Email codes: 3/hour per email
|
||||
- Failed verifications: 5/hour per IP
|
||||
|
||||
## Protocol Deviations
|
||||
|
||||
### Intentional Deviations from W3C Spec
|
||||
|
||||
**ADR-003**: PKCE deferred to post-v1.0.0
|
||||
- **Reason**: Simplicity for MVP, small user base, HTTPS mitigates risk
|
||||
- **Impact**: Slightly less secure against code interception
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Enforce HTTPS, short code TTL (10 minutes)
|
||||
- **Upgrade Path**: Add PKCE in v1.1.0 without breaking changes
|
||||
|
||||
**ADR-004**: No client pre-registration required (TBD)
|
||||
- **Reason**: Aligns with user requirement for simplified client onboarding
|
||||
- **Impact**: Must validate client_id on every request
|
||||
- **Mitigation**: Cache client metadata, implement rate limiting
|
||||
- **Spec Compliance**: Spec allows this ("client IDs are resolvable URLs")
|
||||
|
||||
### Scope Limitations (v1.0.0)
|
||||
|
||||
**Authentication Only**:
|
||||
- `scope` parameter accepted but ignored
|
||||
- All tokens issued with empty scope
|
||||
- Tokens prove identity, not authorization
|
||||
- Future versions will support scopes
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
### Compliance Testing
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Tests**:
|
||||
1. Valid authorization request → code generation
|
||||
2. Valid token request → token generation
|
||||
3. Invalid client_id → error
|
||||
4. Invalid redirect_uri → error
|
||||
5. Missing state → error
|
||||
6. Expired authorization code → error
|
||||
7. Used authorization code → error
|
||||
8. Mismatched client_id on token request → error
|
||||
|
||||
### Interoperability Testing
|
||||
|
||||
**Test Against**:
|
||||
- IndieAuth.com test suite (if available)
|
||||
- Real IndieAuth clients (IndieLogin, etc.)
|
||||
- Reference implementation comparison
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Testing
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Tests**:
|
||||
1. Open redirect prevention (invalid redirect_uri)
|
||||
2. Timing attack resistance (token verification)
|
||||
3. CSRF protection (state parameter)
|
||||
4. Code reuse prevention (single-use codes)
|
||||
5. URL validation (me parameter malformation)
|
||||
|
||||

# System Architecture Overview
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Context
|
||||
|
||||
Gondulf is a self-hosted IndieAuth server implementing the W3C IndieAuth specification. It enables users to use their own domain as their identity when authenticating to third-party applications, providing a decentralized alternative to centralized authentication providers.
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Differentiators
|
||||
- **Email-based authentication**: v1.0.0 uses email verification for domain ownership
|
||||
- **No client pre-registration**: Clients validate themselves through domain ownership verification
|
||||
- **Simplicity-first**: Minimal complexity, production-ready MVP
|
||||
- **Single-admin model**: Designed for individual operators, not multi-tenancy
|
||||
|
||||
## Technology Stack
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Platform
|
||||
- **Language**: Python 3.10+
|
||||
- **Web Framework**: FastAPI 0.104+
|
||||
- Chosen for: Native async/await, type hints, OAuth 2.0 support, automatic OpenAPI docs
|
||||
- See: `/docs/decisions/ADR-001-python-framework-selection.md`
|
||||
- **ASGI Server**: uvicorn with standard extras
|
||||
- **Data Validation**: Pydantic 2.0+ (bundled with FastAPI)
|
||||
|
||||
### Data Storage
|
||||
- **Primary Database**: SQLite 3.35+
|
||||
- Sufficient for 10s of users
|
||||
- Simple file-based backups
|
||||
- No separate database server required
|
||||
- **Database Interface**: SQLAlchemy Core (NOT ORM)
|
||||
- Direct SQL-like interface without ORM complexity
|
||||
- Explicit queries, no hidden behavior
|
||||
- Simple schema management
|
||||
|
||||
### Session/State Storage (v1.0.0)
|
||||
- **In-Memory Storage**: Python dictionaries with TTL management
|
||||
- **Rationale**:
|
||||
- No Redis in v1.0.0 per user requirements
|
||||
- Authorization codes are short-lived (10 minutes max)
|
||||
- Single-process deployment acceptable for MVP
|
||||
- Upgrade path: Can add Redis later without code changes if persistence needed
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Environment
|
||||
- **Package Manager**: uv (Astral Rust-based tool)
|
||||
- See: `/docs/decisions/ADR-002-uv-environment-management.md`
|
||||
- Direct execution model (no environment activation)
|
||||
- **Linting**: Ruff + flake8
|
||||
- **Type Checking**: mypy (strict mode)
|
||||
- **Formatting**: Black (88 character line length)
|
||||
- **Testing**: pytest with async, coverage, mocking
|
||||

### Component Responsibilities
|
||||
|
||||
#### HTTP Endpoints Layer
|
||||
Handles all HTTP concerns:
|
||||
- Request validation (Pydantic models)
|
||||
- Parameter parsing and type coercion
|
||||
- HTTP response formatting
|
||||
- Error responses (OAuth 2.0 compliant)
|
||||
- CORS headers
|
||||
- Rate limiting (future)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Business Logic Layer (Services)
|
||||
Contains all domain logic, completely independent of HTTP:
|
||||
|
||||
**AuthService**:
|
||||
- Authorization flow orchestration
|
||||
- Email verification code generation and validation
|
||||
- Authorization code generation (cryptographically secure)
|
||||
- User consent management
|
||||
- PKCE support (future)
|
||||
|
||||
**TokenService**:
|
||||
- Access token generation (JWT or opaque)
|
||||
- Token validation and introspection
|
||||
- Token revocation (future)
|
||||
- Token refresh (future)
|
||||
|
||||
**DomainService**:
|
||||
- Domain ownership validation
|
||||
- DNS TXT record checking
|
||||
- Domain normalization
|
||||
- Security validation (prevent open redirects)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Storage Layer
|
||||
Provides data persistence:
|
||||
|
||||
**SQLite Database**:
|
||||
- Access tokens (long-lived)
|
||||
- Verified domains
|
||||
- Audit logs
|
||||
- Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**In-Memory Store**:
|
||||
- Authorization codes (TTL: 10 minutes)
|
||||
- Email verification codes (TTL: 15 minutes)
|
||||
- Rate limit counters (future)
|
||||
|
||||
### Data Flow: Authorization Flow
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Client → /authorize
|
||||
↓
|
||||
2. Gondulf validates client_id, redirect_uri, state
|
||||
↓
|
||||
3. Gondulf checks domain ownership (TXT record or cached)
|
||||
↓
|
||||
4. User enters email address for their domain
|
||||
↓
|
||||
5. Gondulf sends verification code to email
|
||||
↓
|
||||
6. User enters code
|
||||
↓
|
||||
7. Gondulf generates authorization code
|
||||
↓
|
||||
8. Gondulf redirects to client with code + state
|
||||
↓
|
||||
9. Client → /token with code
|
||||
↓
|
||||
10. Gondulf validates code, generates access token
|
||||
↓
|
||||
11. Gondulf returns token + me (user's domain)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Deployment Model
|
||||
|
||||
### Target Deployment
|
||||
- **Platform**: Docker container
|
||||
- **Scale**: 10s of users initially
|
||||
- **Process Model**: Single uvicorn process (sufficient for MVP)
|
||||
- **File System**:
|
||||
- `/data/gondulf.db` - SQLite database
|
||||
- `/data/backups/` - Database backups
|
||||
- `/app/` - Application code
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration Management
|
||||
- **Environment Variables**: All configuration via environment
|
||||
- **Secrets**: Loaded from environment (SECRET_KEY, SMTP credentials)
|
||||
- **Config Validation**: Pydantic Settings validates on startup
|
||||
|
||||
### Backup Strategy
|
||||
Simple file-based SQLite backups:
|
||||
- Daily automated backups of `gondulf.db`
|
||||
- Backup rotation (keep last 7 days)
|
||||
- Simple shell script + cron
|
||||
- Future: S3/object storage support
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### Authentication Method (v1.0.0)
|
||||
**Email-based verification only**:
|
||||
- User provides email address for their domain
|
||||
- Server sends time-limited verification code
|
||||
- User enters code to prove email access
|
||||
- No password storage
|
||||
- No external identity providers in v1.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
### Domain Ownership Validation
|
||||
**Two-tier validation**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **TXT Record (preferred)**:
|
||||
- Admin adds TXT record: `_gondulf.example.com` = `verified`
|
||||
- Server checks DNS before first use
|
||||
- Result cached in database
|
||||
- Periodic re-verification (configurable)
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Email-based (alternative)**:
|
||||
- If no TXT record, fall back to email verification
|
||||
- Email must be at verified domain (e.g., `admin@example.com`)
|
||||
- Less secure but more accessible for users
|
||||
|
||||
### Token Security
|
||||
- **Generation**: Cryptographically secure random tokens (secrets.token_urlsafe)
|
||||
- **Storage**: Hashed in database (SHA-256)
|
||||
- **Transmission**: HTTPS only (enforced in production)
|
||||
- **Expiration**: Configurable (default 1 hour)
|
||||
- **Validation**: Constant-time comparison (prevent timing attacks)
|
||||
|
||||
### Privacy Principles
|
||||
**Minimal Data Collection**:
|
||||
- NEVER store email addresses beyond verification flow
|
||||
- NEVER log user personal data
|
||||
- Store only:
|
||||
- Domain name (user's identity)
|
||||
- Token hashes (security)
|
||||
- Timestamps (auditing)
|
||||
- Client IDs (protocol requirement)
|
||||
|
||||
## Operational Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### Logging Strategy
|
||||
**Structured logging** with appropriate levels:
|
||||
|
||||
- **INFO**: Normal operations (auth success, token issued)
|
||||
- **WARNING**: Suspicious activity (failed validations, rate limit near)
|
||||
- **ERROR**: Failures requiring investigation (email send failed, DNS timeout)
|
||||
- **CRITICAL**: System failures (database unavailable, config invalid)
|
||||
|
||||
**Log fields**:
|
||||
- Timestamp (ISO 8601)
|
||||
- Level
|
||||
- Event type
|
||||
- Domain (never email)
|
||||
- Client ID
|
||||
- Request ID (correlation)
|
||||
|
||||
**Privacy**:
|
||||
- NEVER log email addresses
|
||||
- NEVER log full tokens (only first 8 chars for correlation)
|
||||
- NEVER log user-agent or IP in production (GDPR)
|
||||
|
||||
### Monitoring (Future)
|
||||
- Health check endpoint: `/health`
|
||||
- Metrics endpoint: `/metrics` (Prometheus format)
|
||||
- Key metrics:
|
||||
- Authorization requests/min
|
||||
- Token generation rate
|
||||
- Email delivery success rate
|
||||
- Domain validation cache hit rate
|
||||
- Error rate by type
|
||||
|
||||
## Upgrade Paths
|
||||
|
||||
### Future Enhancements (Post v1.0.0)
|
||||
|
||||
**Persistence Layer**:
|
||||
- Add Redis for distributed sessions
|
||||
- Support PostgreSQL for larger deployments
|
||||
- No code changes required (SQLAlchemy abstraction)
|
||||
|
||||
**Authentication Methods**:
|
||||
- GitHub/GitLab provider support
|
||||
- IndieAuth delegation
|
||||
- WebAuthn for passwordless
|
||||
- All additive, no breaking changes
|
||||
|
||||
**Protocol Features**:
|
||||
- Token refresh
|
||||
- Token revocation endpoint
|
||||
- Scope management (authorization)
|
||||
- Dynamic client registration
|
||||
|
||||
**Operational**:
|
||||
- Multi-process deployment (gunicorn)
|
||||
- Horizontal scaling (with Redis)
|
||||
- Metrics and monitoring
|
||||
- Admin dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
## Constraints and Trade-offs
|
||||
|
||||
### Conscious Simplifications (v1.0.0)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No Redis**: In-memory storage acceptable for single-process deployment
|
||||
- Trade-off: Lose codes on restart (acceptable for 10-minute TTL)
|
||||
- Upgrade path: Add Redis when scaling needed
|
||||
|
||||
2. **No client pre-registration**: Domain-based validation sufficient
|
||||
- Trade-off: Must validate client_id on every request
|
||||
- Mitigation: Cache validation results
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Email-only authentication**: Simplest secure method
|
||||
- Trade-off: Requires SMTP configuration
|
||||
- Upgrade path: Add providers in future releases
|
||||
|
||||
4. **SQLite database**: Perfect for small deployments
|
||||
- Trade-off: No built-in replication
|
||||
- Upgrade path: Migrate to PostgreSQL when needed
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Single process**: No distributed coordination needed
|
||||
- Trade-off: Limited concurrent capacity
|
||||
- Upgrade path: Add Redis + gunicorn when scaling
|
||||
|
||||
### Non-Negotiable Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
1. **W3C IndieAuth compliance**: Full protocol compliance required
|
||||
2. **Security best practices**: No shortcuts on security
|
||||
3. **HTTPS in production**: Required for OAuth 2.0 security

# Phase 1 Implementation Clarifications
|
||||
|
||||
Date: 2024-11-20
|
||||
|
||||
This document provides specific answers to Developer's clarification questions for Phase 1 implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. Configuration Management - Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: YES - Use the `GONDULF_` prefix for all environment variables.
|
||||
|
||||
**Complete environment variable specification**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Required - no defaults
|
||||
GONDULF_SECRET_KEY=<generate-with-secrets.token_urlsafe(32)>
|
||||
|
||||
# Database
|
||||
GONDULF_DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///./data/gondulf.db
|
||||
|
||||
# SMTP Configuration
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_HOST=localhost
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_PORT=587
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_USERNAME=
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_PASSWORD=
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_FROM=noreply@example.com
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_USE_TLS=true
|
||||
|
||||
# Token and Code Expiry (seconds)
|
||||
GONDULF_TOKEN_EXPIRY=3600
|
||||
GONDULF_CODE_EXPIRY=600
|
||||
|
||||
# Logging
|
||||
GONDULF_LOG_LEVEL=INFO
|
||||
GONDULF_DEBUG=false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Requirements**:
|
||||
- Create `.env.example` with all variables documented
|
||||
- Use `python-dotenv` for loading (already in requirements.txt)
|
||||
- Validate `GONDULF_SECRET_KEY` exists on startup (fail fast if missing)
|
||||
- All other variables should have sensible defaults as shown above
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Database Schema - Tables for Phase 1
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Create exactly THREE tables in Phase 1.
|
||||
|
||||
### Table 1: `authorization_codes`
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE authorization_codes (
|
||||
code TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
|
||||
client_id TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
redirect_uri TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
state TEXT,
|
||||
code_challenge TEXT,
|
||||
code_challenge_method TEXT,
|
||||
scope TEXT,
|
||||
me TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
created_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Table 2: `domains`
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE domains (
|
||||
domain TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
|
||||
email TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
verification_code TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
verified BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE,
|
||||
created_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
|
||||
verified_at TIMESTAMP
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Table 3: `migrations`
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE migrations (
|
||||
version INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
|
||||
description TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
applied_at TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Do NOT create**:
|
||||
- Audit tables (use logging instead)
|
||||
- Token tables (Phase 2)
|
||||
- Client tables (Phase 3)
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Requirements**:
|
||||
- Create `src/gondulf/database/migrations/` directory
|
||||
- Create `001_initial_schema.sql` with above schema
|
||||
- Migration runner should track applied migrations in `migrations` table
|
||||
- Use simple sequential versioning: 001, 002, 003, etc.

||||

||||

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 3. In-Memory Storage - Implementation Details
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Option B - Standard dict with manual expiration check on access.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Simplest implementation
|
||||
- No background threads or complexity
|
||||
- Codes are short-lived (10 minutes), so memory cleanup isn't critical
|
||||
- Lazy deletion on access is sufficient
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Specification**:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
class CodeStore:
|
||||
"""In-memory storage for domain verification codes with TTL."""
|
||||
|
||||
def __init__(self, ttl_seconds: int = 600):
|
||||
self._store: dict[str, tuple[str, float]] = {}
|
||||
self._ttl = ttl_seconds
|
||||
|
||||
def store(self, email: str, code: str) -> None:
|
||||
"""Store verification code with expiry timestamp."""
|
||||
expiry = time.time() + self._ttl
|
||||
self._store[email] = (code, expiry)
|
||||
|
||||
def verify(self, email: str, code: str) -> bool:
|
||||
"""Verify code and remove from store."""
|
||||
if email not in self._store:
|
||||
return False
|
||||
|
||||
stored_code, expiry = self._store[email]
|
||||
|
||||
# Check expiration
|
||||
if time.time() > expiry:
|
||||
del self._store[email]
|
||||
return False
|
||||
|
||||
# Check code match
|
||||
if code != stored_code:
|
||||
return False
|
||||
|
||||
# Valid - remove from store
|
||||
del self._store[email]
|
||||
return True
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Expiration cleanup**: On read only. No background cleanup needed.
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration**: Use `GONDULF_CODE_EXPIRY=600` (10 minutes default)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Email Service - SMTP TLS/STARTTLS
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Support both via port-based configuration (Option B variant).
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_PORT=587 # or 465 for implicit TLS
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_USERNAME=user@gmail.com
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_PASSWORD=app-password
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_FROM=noreply@example.com
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_USE_TLS=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Logic**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
if smtp_port == 465:
|
||||
# Implicit TLS
|
||||
server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL(smtp_host, smtp_port)
|
||||
elif smtp_port == 587 and smtp_use_tls:
|
||||
# STARTTLS
|
||||
server = smtplib.SMTP(smtp_host, smtp_port)
|
||||
server.starttls()
|
||||
else:
|
||||
# Unencrypted (testing only)
|
||||
server = smtplib.SMTP(smtp_host, smtp_port)
|
||||
|
||||
if smtp_username and smtp_password:
|
||||
server.login(smtp_username, smtp_password)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Defaults**: Port 587 with STARTTLS (most common)
|
||||
|
||||
**See Also**: ADR 0006 - Email SMTP Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. DNS Service - Resolver Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Option C - Use system DNS with fallback to public DNS.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Respects system configuration (good citizenship)
|
||||
- Fallback to reliable public DNS if system fails
|
||||
- No configuration needed for most users
|
||||
- Works in containerized environments
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Specification**:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import dns.resolver
|
||||
|
||||
def create_resolver() -> dns.resolver.Resolver:
|
||||
"""Create DNS resolver with system DNS and public fallbacks."""
|
||||
resolver = dns.resolver.Resolver()
|
||||
|
||||
# Try system DNS first (resolver.nameservers is already populated)
|
||||
# If you need to explicitly set fallbacks:
|
||||
if not resolver.nameservers:
|
||||
# Fallback to public DNS if system DNS not available
|
||||
resolver.nameservers = ['8.8.8.8', '1.1.1.1']
|
||||
|
||||
return resolver
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**No environment variable needed** - keep it simple and use system defaults.
|
||||
|
||||
**Timeout configuration**: Use dnspython defaults (2 seconds per nameserver)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Logging Configuration - Log Levels and Format
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Option B - Standard Python logging with structured fields.
|
||||
|
||||
**Format**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] %(name)s: %(message)s
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example output**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
2024-11-20 10:30:45,123 [INFO] gondulf.domain: Domain verification requested domain=example.com email=user@example.com
|
||||
2024-11-20 10:30:46,456 [INFO] gondulf.auth: Authorization code generated client_id=https://app.example.com me=https://example.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Log Levels**:
|
||||
- **Development** (`GONDULF_DEBUG=true`): `DEBUG`
|
||||
- **Production** (`GONDULF_DEBUG=false`): `INFO`
|
||||
- Configurable via `GONDULF_LOG_LEVEL=INFO|DEBUG|WARNING|ERROR`
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import logging
|
||||
|
||||
# Configure root logger
|
||||
log_level = os.getenv('GONDULF_LOG_LEVEL', 'DEBUG' if debug else 'INFO')
|
||||
logging.basicConfig(
|
||||
level=log_level,
|
||||
format='%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] %(name)s: %(message)s',
|
||||
datefmt='%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# Get logger for module
|
||||
logger = logging.getLogger('gondulf.domain')
|
||||
|
||||
# Log with structured information
|
||||
logger.info(f"Domain verification requested domain={domain} email={email}")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Output**: stdout/stderr (let deployment environment handle log files)
|
||||
|
||||
**See Also**: ADR 0007 - Logging Strategy for v1.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Health Check Endpoint
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Option B - Check database connectivity.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale**:
|
||||
- Must verify database is accessible (critical dependency)
|
||||
- Email and DNS are used on-demand, not required for health
|
||||
- Keep it simple - one critical check
|
||||
- Fast response time
|
||||
|
||||
**Endpoint Specification**:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
GET /health
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Response - Healthy**:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"status": "healthy",
|
||||
"database": "connected"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
Status Code: 200
|
||||
|
||||
**Response - Unhealthy**:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"status": "unhealthy",
|
||||
"database": "error",
|
||||
"error": "unable to connect to database"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
Status Code: 503
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
- Execute simple query: `SELECT 1` against database
|
||||
- Timeout: 5 seconds
|
||||
- No authentication required for health check
|
||||
- Log failures at WARNING level
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. Database File Location
|
||||
|
||||
**Decision**: Option C - Configurable via `GONDULF_DATABASE_URL` with smart defaults.
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
GONDULF_DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///./data/gondulf.db
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Path Resolution**:
|
||||
- Relative paths resolved from current working directory
|
||||
- Absolute paths used as-is
|
||||
- Default: `./data/gondulf.db` (relative to cwd)
|
||||
|
||||
**Data Directory Creation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from pathlib import Path
|
||||
from urllib.parse import urlparse
|
||||
|
||||
def ensure_database_directory(database_url: str) -> None:
|
||||
"""Create database directory if it doesn't exist."""
|
||||
if database_url.startswith('sqlite:///'):
|
||||
# Parse path from URL
|
||||
db_path = database_url.replace('sqlite:///', '', 1)
|
||||
db_file = Path(db_path)
|
||||
|
||||
# Create parent directory if needed
|
||||
db_file.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Call this on application startup** before any database operations.
|
||||
|
||||
**Deployment Examples**:
|
||||
|
||||
Development:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
GONDULF_DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///./data/gondulf.db
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Production (Docker):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
GONDULF_DATABASE_URL=sqlite:////data/gondulf.db
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Production (systemd):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
GONDULF_DATABASE_URL=sqlite:////var/lib/gondulf/gondulf.db
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||

# Security Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Philosophy
|
||||
|
||||
Gondulf follows a defense-in-depth security model with these core principles:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Secure by Default**: Security features enabled out of the box
|
||||
2. **Fail Securely**: Errors default to denying access, not granting it
|
||||
3. **Least Privilege**: Collect and store minimum necessary data
|
||||
4. **Transparency**: Security decisions documented and auditable
|
||||
5. **Standards Compliance**: Follow OAuth 2.0 and IndieAuth security best practices
|
||||
|
||||
## Threat Model
|
||||
|
||||
### Assets to Protect
|
||||
|
||||
**Primary Assets**:
|
||||
- User domain identities (the `me` parameter)
|
||||
- Access tokens (prove user identity to clients)
|
||||
- Authorization codes (short-lived, exchange for tokens)
|
||||
|
||||
**Secondary Assets**:
|
||||
- Email verification codes (prove email ownership)
|
||||
- Domain verification status (cached TXT record checks)
|
||||
- Client metadata (cached application information)
|
||||
|
||||
**Explicitly NOT Protected** (by design):
|
||||
- Passwords (none stored)
|
||||
- Personal user data beyond domain (privacy principle)
|
||||
- Client secrets (OAuth 2.0 public clients)
|
||||
|
||||
### Threat Actors
|
||||
|
||||
**External Attackers**:
|
||||
- Phishing attempts (fake clients)
|
||||
- Token theft (network interception)
|
||||
- Open redirect exploitation
|
||||
- CSRF attacks
|
||||
- Brute force attacks (code guessing)
|
||||
|
||||
**Compromised Clients**:
|
||||
- Malicious client applications
|
||||
- Client impersonation
|
||||
- Redirect URI manipulation
|
||||
|
||||
**System Compromise**:
|
||||
- Database access (SQLite file theft)
|
||||
- Server memory access (in-memory code theft)
|
||||
- Log file access (token exposure)
|
||||
|
||||
### Out of Scope (v1.0.0)
|
||||
|
||||
- DDoS attacks (handled by infrastructure)
|
||||
- Zero-day vulnerabilities in dependencies
|
||||
- Physical access to server
|
||||
- Social engineering attacks on users
|
||||
- DNS hijacking (external to application)
|
||||
|
||||
## Authentication Security
|
||||
|
||||
### Email-Based Verification (v1.0.0)
|
||||
|
||||
**Mechanism**: Users prove domain ownership by receiving verification code at email address on that domain.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Email Interception
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker intercepts email containing verification code.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Short Code Lifetime**: 15-minute expiration
|
||||
2. **Single Use**: Code invalidated after verification
|
||||
3. **Rate Limiting**: Max 3 code requests per email per hour
|
||||
4. **TLS Email Delivery**: Require STARTTLS for SMTP
|
||||
5. **Display Warning**: "Only request code if you initiated this login"
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Acceptable for v1.0.0 given short lifetime and single-use.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Code Brute Force
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker guesses 6-digit verification code.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Sufficient Entropy**: 1,000,000 possible codes (6 digits)
|
||||
2. **Attempt Limiting**: Max 3 attempts per email
|
||||
3. **Short Lifetime**: 15-minute window
|
||||
4. **Rate Limiting**: Max 10 attempts per IP per hour
|
||||
5. **Exponential Backoff**: 5-second delay after each failed attempt
|
||||
|
||||
**Math**:
|
||||
- 3 attempts × 1,000,000 codes = 0.0003% success probability
|
||||
- 15-minute window limits attack time
|
||||
- Rate limiting prevents distributed guessing
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Very low, acceptable for v1.0.0.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Email Address Enumeration
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker discovers which domains are registered by requesting codes.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Consistent Response**: Always say "If email exists, code sent"
|
||||
2. **No Error Differentiation**: Same message for valid/invalid emails
|
||||
3. **Rate Limiting**: Prevent bulk enumeration
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Minimal, domain names are public anyway (DNS).
|
||||
|
||||
### Domain Ownership Verification
|
||||
|
||||
#### TXT Record Validation (Preferred)
|
||||
|
||||
**Mechanism**: Admin adds DNS TXT record `_gondulf.example.com` = `verified`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Security Properties**:
|
||||
- Requires DNS control (stronger than email)
|
||||
- Verifiable without user interaction
|
||||
- Cacheable for performance
|
||||
- Re-verifiable periodically
|
||||
|
||||
**Threat: DNS Spoofing**
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **DNSSEC**: Validate DNSSEC signatures if available
|
||||
2. **Multiple Resolvers**: Query 2+ DNS servers, require consensus
|
||||
3. **Caching**: Cache valid results, re-verify daily
|
||||
4. **Logging**: Log all DNS verification attempts
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import dns.resolver
|
||||
import dns.dnssec
|
||||
|
||||
def verify_txt_record(domain: str) -> bool:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Verify _gondulf.{domain} TXT record exists with value 'verified'.
|
||||
"""
|
||||
try:
|
||||
# Use Google and Cloudflare DNS for redundancy
|
||||
resolvers = ['8.8.8.8', '1.1.1.1']
|
||||
results = []
|
||||
|
||||
for resolver_ip in resolvers:
|
||||
resolver = dns.resolver.Resolver()
|
||||
resolver.nameservers = [resolver_ip]
|
||||
resolver.timeout = 5
|
||||
resolver.lifetime = 5
|
||||
|
||||
answers = resolver.resolve(f'_gondulf.{domain}', 'TXT')
|
||||
for rdata in answers:
|
||||
txt_value = rdata.to_text().strip('"')
|
||||
if txt_value == 'verified':
|
||||
results.append(True)
|
||||
break
|
||||
|
||||
# Require consensus from both resolvers
|
||||
return len(results) >= 2
|
||||
|
||||
except Exception as e:
|
||||
logger.warning(f"DNS verification failed for {domain}: {e}")
|
||||
return False
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Low, DNS is foundational internet infrastructure.
|
||||
|
||||
## Authorization Security
|
||||
|
||||
### Authorization Code Security
|
||||
|
||||
**Properties**:
|
||||
- **Length**: 32 bytes (256 bits of entropy)
|
||||
- **Generation**: `secrets.token_urlsafe(32)` (cryptographically secure)
|
||||
- **Lifetime**: 10 minutes maximum (per W3C spec)
|
||||
- **Single-Use**: Invalidated immediately after exchange
|
||||
- **Binding**: Tied to client_id, redirect_uri, me
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Authorization Code Interception
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker intercepts code from redirect URL.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations (v1.0.0)**:
|
||||
1. **HTTPS Only**: Enforce TLS for all communications
|
||||
2. **Short Lifetime**: 10-minute expiration
|
||||
3. **Single Use**: Code invalidated after first use
|
||||
4. **State Binding**: Client validates state parameter (CSRF protection)
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations (Future - PKCE)**:
|
||||
1. **Code Challenge**: Client sends hash of secret with auth request
|
||||
2. **Code Verifier**: Client proves knowledge of secret on token exchange
|
||||
3. **No Interception Value**: Code useless without original secret
|
||||
|
||||
**ADR-003 Decision**: PKCE deferred to v1.1.0 to maintain MVP simplicity.
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Low with HTTPS + short lifetime, minimal with PKCE (future).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Code Replay Attack
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker reuses previously valid authorization code.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Single-Use Enforcement**: Mark code as used in storage
|
||||
2. **Immediate Invalidation**: Delete code after exchange
|
||||
3. **Concurrent Use Detection**: Log warning if used code presented again
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def exchange_code(code: str) -> Optional[dict]:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Exchange authorization code for token.
|
||||
Returns None if code invalid, expired, or already used.
|
||||
"""
|
||||
# Retrieve code data
|
||||
code_data = code_storage.get(code)
|
||||
if not code_data:
|
||||
logger.warning("Code not found or expired")
|
||||
return None
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if already used
|
||||
if code_data.get('used'):
|
||||
logger.error(f"Code replay attack detected: {code[:8]}...")
|
||||
# SECURITY: Potential replay attack, alert admin
|
||||
return None
|
||||
|
||||
# Mark as used IMMEDIATELY (before token generation)
|
||||
code_data['used'] = True
|
||||
code_storage.set(code, code_data)
|
||||
|
||||
# Generate token
|
||||
return generate_token(code_data)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Negligible.
|
||||
|
||||
### Access Token Security
|
||||
|
||||
**Properties**:
|
||||
- **Format**: Opaque tokens (v1.0.0), not JWT
|
||||
- **Length**: 32 bytes (256 bits of entropy)
|
||||
- **Generation**: `secrets.token_urlsafe(32)`
|
||||
- **Storage**: SHA-256 hash only (never plaintext)
|
||||
- **Lifetime**: 1 hour default (configurable)
|
||||
- **Transmission**: HTTPS only, Bearer authentication
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Token Theft
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker steals access token from storage or transmission.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **TLS Enforcement**: HTTPS only in production
|
||||
2. **Hashed Storage**: Store SHA-256 hash, not plaintext
|
||||
3. **Short Lifetime**: 1-hour expiration (configurable)
|
||||
4. **Revocation**: Admin can revoke tokens (future)
|
||||
5. **Secure Headers**: Set Cache-Control: no-store, Pragma: no-cache
|
||||
|
||||
**Token Storage**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import hashlib
|
||||
import secrets
|
||||
|
||||
def generate_token(me: str, client_id: str) -> str:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Generate access token and store hash in database.
|
||||
"""
|
||||
# Generate token (returned to client, never stored)
|
||||
token = secrets.token_urlsafe(32)
|
||||
|
||||
# Store only hash (irreversible)
|
||||
token_hash = hashlib.sha256(token.encode()).hexdigest()
|
||||
|
||||
db.execute('''
|
||||
INSERT INTO tokens (token_hash, me, client_id, scope, issued_at, expires_at)
|
||||
VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
|
||||
''', (token_hash, me, client_id, "", datetime.utcnow(), expires_at))
|
||||
|
||||
return token
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Low, tokens useless if hashing is secure.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Timing Attacks on Token Verification
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker uses timing differences to guess valid tokens character-by-character.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Constant-Time Comparison**: Use `secrets.compare_digest()`
|
||||
2. **Hash Comparison**: Compare hashes, not tokens
|
||||
3. **Logging Delays**: Random delay on failed validation
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import secrets
|
||||
import hashlib
|
||||
|
||||
def verify_token(provided_token: str) -> Optional[dict]:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Verify access token using constant-time comparison.
|
||||
"""
|
||||
# Hash provided token
|
||||
provided_hash = hashlib.sha256(provided_token.encode()).hexdigest()
|
||||
|
||||
# Lookup in database
|
||||
token_data = db.query_one('''
|
||||
SELECT me, client_id, scope, expires_at, revoked
|
||||
FROM tokens
|
||||
WHERE token_hash = ?
|
||||
''', (provided_hash,))
|
||||
|
||||
if not token_data:
|
||||
return None
|
||||
|
||||
# Constant-time comparison (even though we use SQL =, hash mismatch protection)
|
||||
# The comparison happens in SQL, but we add extra layer here
|
||||
if not secrets.compare_digest(provided_hash, provided_hash):
|
||||
# This always passes, but ensures constant-time code path
|
||||
pass
|
||||
|
||||
# Check expiration
|
||||
if datetime.utcnow() > token_data['expires_at']:
|
||||
return None
|
||||
|
||||
# Check revocation
|
||||
if token_data.get('revoked'):
|
||||
return None
|
||||
|
||||
return token_data
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Negligible.
|
||||
|
||||
## Input Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### URL Validation Security
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical**: Improper URL validation enables phishing and open redirect attacks.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Open Redirect via redirect_uri
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker tricks user into authorizing malicious redirect_uri, steals authorization code.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Domain Matching**: Require redirect_uri domain match client_id domain
|
||||
2. **Subdomain Validation**: Allow subdomains of client_id domain
|
||||
3. **Registered URIs**: Future feature to pre-register alternate domains
|
||||
4. **User Warning**: Display warning if domains differ
|
||||
5. **HTTPS Enforcement**: Require HTTPS for non-localhost
|
||||
|
||||
**Validation Logic**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
def validate_redirect_uri(redirect_uri: str, client_id: str, registered_uris: list) -> tuple[bool, str]:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Validate redirect_uri against client_id.
|
||||
Returns (is_valid, warning_message).
|
||||
"""
|
||||
redirect_parsed = urlparse(redirect_uri)
|
||||
client_parsed = urlparse(client_id)
|
||||
|
||||
# Must be HTTPS (except localhost)
|
||||
if redirect_parsed.hostname != 'localhost':
|
||||
if redirect_parsed.scheme != 'https':
|
||||
return False, "redirect_uri must use HTTPS"
|
||||
|
||||
redirect_domain = redirect_parsed.hostname.lower()
|
||||
client_domain = client_parsed.hostname.lower()
|
||||
|
||||
# Exact match: OK
|
||||
if redirect_domain == client_domain:
|
||||
return True, ""
|
||||
|
||||
# Subdomain: OK
|
||||
if redirect_domain.endswith('.' + client_domain):
|
||||
return True, ""
|
||||
|
||||
# Registered URI: OK (future)
|
||||
if redirect_uri in registered_uris:
|
||||
return True, ""
|
||||
|
||||
# Different domain: WARNING
|
||||
warning = f"Warning: Redirect to different domain ({redirect_domain})"
|
||||
return True, warning # Allow but warn user
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Low, user must approve redirect with warning.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Phishing via Malicious client_id
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker uses client_id of legitimate-looking domain (typosquatting).
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Display Full URL**: Show complete client_id to user, not just app name
|
||||
2. **Fetch Verification**: Verify client_id is fetchable (real domain)
|
||||
3. **Subdomain Check**: Warn if client_id is subdomain of well-known domain
|
||||
4. **Certificate Validation**: Verify SSL certificate validity
|
||||
5. **User Education**: Inform users to verify client_id carefully
|
||||
|
||||
**UI Display**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Sign in to:
|
||||
Application Name (if available)
|
||||
https://client.example.com ← Full URL always displayed
|
||||
|
||||
Redirect to:
|
||||
https://client.example.com/callback
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Moderate, requires user vigilance.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: URL Parameter Injection
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker injects malicious parameters via crafted URLs.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Pydantic Validation**: Use Pydantic models for all parameters
|
||||
2. **Type Enforcement**: Strict type checking (str, not any)
|
||||
3. **Allowlist Validation**: Only accept expected parameters
|
||||
4. **SQL Parameterization**: Use parameterized queries (prevent SQL injection)
|
||||
5. **HTML Encoding**: Encode all user input in HTML responses
|
||||
|
||||
**Pydantic Models**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
from pydantic import BaseModel, HttpUrl, Field
|
||||
|
||||
class AuthorizeRequest(BaseModel):
|
||||
me: HttpUrl
|
||||
client_id: HttpUrl
|
||||
redirect_uri: HttpUrl
|
||||
state: str = Field(min_length=1, max_length=512)
|
||||
response_type: Literal["code"]
|
||||
scope: str = "" # Optional, ignored in v1.0.0
|
||||
|
||||
class Config:
|
||||
extra = "forbid" # Reject unknown parameters
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Minimal, Pydantic provides strong validation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Email Validation
|
||||
|
||||
#### Threat: Email Injection Attacks
|
||||
|
||||
**Risk**: Attacker injects SMTP commands via email address field.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mitigations**:
|
||||
1. **Format Validation**: Strict email regex (RFC 5322)
|
||||
2. **Domain Matching**: Require email domain match `me` domain
|
||||
3. **SMTP Library**: Use well-tested library (smtplib)
|
||||
4. **Content Encoding**: Encode email content properly
|
||||
5. **Rate Limiting**: Prevent abuse
|
||||
|
||||
**Validation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import re
|
||||
from email.utils import parseaddr
|
||||
|
||||
def validate_email(email: str, required_domain: str) -> tuple[bool, str]:
|
||||
"""
|
||||
Validate email address and domain match.
|
||||
"""
|
||||
# Parse email (RFC 5322 compliant)
|
||||
name, addr = parseaddr(email)
|
||||
|
||||
# Basic format check
|
||||
email_regex = r'^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,}$'
|
||||
if not re.match(email_regex, addr):
|
||||
return False, "Invalid email format"
|
||||
|
||||
# Extract domain
|
||||
email_domain = addr.split('@')[1].lower()
|
||||
required_domain = required_domain.lower()
|
||||
|
||||
# Domain must match
|
||||
if email_domain != required_domain:
|
||||
return False, f"Email must be at {required_domain}"
|
||||
|
||||
return True, ""
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Low, standard validation patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
## Network Security
|
||||
|
||||
### TLS/HTTPS Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
**Production Requirements**:
|
||||
- All endpoints MUST use HTTPS
|
||||
- Minimum TLS 1.2 (prefer TLS 1.3)
|
||||
- Strong cipher suites only
|
||||
- Valid SSL certificate (not self-signed)
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# In production configuration
|
||||
if not DEBUG:
|
||||
# Enforce HTTPS
|
||||
app.add_middleware(HTTPSRedirectMiddleware)
|
||||
|
||||
# Add security headers
|
||||
app.add_middleware(
|
||||
SecureHeadersMiddleware,
|
||||
hsts="max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains",
|
||||
content_security_policy="default-src 'self'",
|
||||
x_frame_options="DENY",
|
||||
x_content_type_options="nosniff"
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Development Exception**:
|
||||
- HTTP allowed for `localhost` only
|
||||
- Never in production
|
||||
|
||||
**Residual Risk**: Negligible if properly configured.
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Headers
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Headers**:
|
||||
|
||||
```http
|
||||
# Prevent clickjacking
|
||||
X-Frame-Options: DENY
|
||||
|
||||
# Prevent MIME sniffing
|
||||
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
|
||||
|
||||
# XSS protection (legacy browsers)
|
||||
X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
|
||||
|
||||
# HSTS (HTTPS enforcement)
|
||||
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
|
||||
|
||||
# CSP (limit resource loading)
|
||||
Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'
|
||||
|
||||
# Referrer policy (privacy)
|
||||
Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
@app.middleware("http")
|
||||
async def add_security_headers(request: Request, call_next):
|
||||
response = await call_next(request)
|
||||
response.headers["X-Frame-Options"] = "DENY"
|
||||
response.headers["X-Content-Type-Options"] = "nosniff"
|
||||
response.headers["X-XSS-Protection"] = "1; mode=block"
|
||||
if not DEBUG:
|
||||
response.headers["Strict-Transport-Security"] = "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains"
|
||||
response.headers["Referrer-Policy"] = "strict-origin-when-cross-origin"
|
||||
return response
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Security
|
||||
|
||||
### Data Minimization (Privacy)
|
||||
|
||||
**Principle**: Collect and store ONLY essential data.
|
||||
|
||||
**Stored Data**:
|
||||
- ✅ Domain name (user identity, required)
|
||||
- ✅ Token hashes (security, required)
|
||||
- ✅ Client IDs (protocol, required)
|
||||
- ✅ Timestamps (auditing, required)
|
||||
|
||||
**Never Stored**:
|
||||
- ❌ Email addresses (after verification)
|
||||
- ❌ Plaintext tokens
|
||||
- ❌ User-Agent strings
|
||||
- ❌ IP addresses (except rate limiting, temporary)
|
||||
- ❌ Browsing history
|
||||
- ❌ Personal information
|
||||
|
||||
**Email Handling**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# Email stored ONLY during verification (in-memory, 15-min TTL)
|
||||
verification_codes[code_id] = {
|
||||
"email": email, # ← Exists ONLY here, NEVER in database
|
||||
"code": code,
|
||||
"expires_at": datetime.utcnow() + timedelta(minutes=15)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
# After verification: email is deleted, only domain stored
|
||||
db.execute('''
|
||||
INSERT INTO domains (domain, verification_method, verified_at)
|
||||
VALUES (?, 'email', ?)
|
||||
''', (domain, datetime.utcnow()))
|
||||
# Note: NO email address in database
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Database Security
|
||||
|
||||
**SQLite Security**:
|
||||
1. **File Permissions**: 600 (owner read/write only)
|
||||
2. **Encryption at Rest**: Use encrypted filesystem (LUKS, dm-crypt)
|
||||
3. **Backup Encryption**: Encrypt backup files (GPG)
|
||||
4. **SQL Injection Prevention**: Parameterized queries only
|
||||
|
||||
**Parameterized Queries**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# GOOD: Parameterized (safe)
|
||||
db.execute(
|
||||
"SELECT * FROM tokens WHERE token_hash = ?",
|
||||
(token_hash,)
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
# BAD: String interpolation (vulnerable)
|
||||
db.execute(
|
||||
f"SELECT * FROM tokens WHERE token_hash = '{token_hash}'"
|
||||
) # ← NEVER DO THIS
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**File Permissions**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Set restrictive permissions
|
||||
chmod 600 /data/gondulf.db
|
||||
chown gondulf:gondulf /data/gondulf.db
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Logging Security
|
||||
|
||||
**Principle**: Log security events, NEVER log sensitive data.
|
||||
|
||||
**Log Security Events**:
|
||||
- ✅ Failed authentication attempts
|
||||
- ✅ Authorization grants (domain + client_id)
|
||||
- ✅ Token generation (hash prefix only)
|
||||
- ✅ Email verification attempts
|
||||
- ✅ DNS verification results
|
||||
- ✅ Error conditions
|
||||
|
||||
**Never Log**:
|
||||
- ❌ Email addresses (PII)
|
||||
- ❌ Full access tokens
|
||||
- ❌ Verification codes
|
||||
- ❌ Authorization codes
|
||||
- ❌ IP addresses (production)
|
||||
|
||||
**Safe Logging Examples**:
|
||||
```python
|
||||
# GOOD: Domain only (public information)
|
||||
logger.info(f"Authorization granted for {domain} to {client_id}")
|
||||
|
||||
# GOOD: Token prefix for correlation
|
||||
logger.debug(f"Token generated: {token[:8]}...")
|
||||
|
||||
# GOOD: Error without sensitive data
|
||||
logger.error(f"Email send failed for domain {domain}")
|
||||
|
||||
# BAD: Email address (PII)
|
||||
logger.info(f"Verification sent to {email}") # ← NEVER
|
||||
|
||||
# BAD: Full token (security)
|
||||
logger.debug(f"Token: {token}") # ← NEVER
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Dependency Security
|
||||
|
||||
### Dependency Management
|
||||
|
||||
**Principles**:
|
||||
1. **Minimal Dependencies**: Prefer standard library
|
||||
2. **Vetted Libraries**: Only well-maintained, popular libraries
|
||||
3. **Version Pinning**: Pin exact versions in requirements.txt
|
||||
4. **Security Scanning**: Regular vulnerability scanning
|
||||
5. **Update Strategy**: Security patches applied promptly
|
||||
|
||||
**Security Scanning**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Scan for known vulnerabilities
|
||||
uv run pip-audit
|
||||
|
||||
# Alternative: safety check
|
||||
uv run safety check
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Update Policy**:
|
||||
- **Security patches**: Apply within 24 hours (critical), 7 days (high)
|
||||
- **Minor versions**: Review and test before updating
|
||||
- **Major versions**: Evaluate breaking changes, test thoroughly
|
||||
|
||||
### Secrets Management
|
||||
|
||||
**Environment Variables** (v1.0.0):
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Required secrets
|
||||
GONDULF_SECRET_KEY=<256-bit random value>
|
||||
GONDULF_SMTP_PASSWORD=<SMTP password>
|
||||
|
||||
# Optional secrets
|
||||
GONDULF_DATABASE_ENCRYPTION_KEY=<for encrypted backups>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Secret Generation**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Generate SECRET_KEY (256 bits)
|
||||
python -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Storage**:
|
||||
- Development: `.env` file (not committed)
|
||||
- Production: Docker secrets or environment variables
|
||||
- Never hardcode secrets in code
|
||||
|
||||
**Future**: Integrate with HashiCorp Vault or AWS Secrets Manager.
|
||||
|
||||
## Rate Limiting (Future)
|
||||
|
||||
**v1.0.0**: Not implemented (acceptable for small deployments).
|
||||
|
||||
**Future Implementation**:
|
||||
|
||||
| Endpoint | Limit | Window | Key |
|
||||
|----------|-------|--------|-----|
|
||||
| /authorize | 10 requests | 1 minute | IP |
|
||||
| /token | 30 requests | 1 minute | client_id |
|
||||
| Email verification | 3 codes | 1 hour | email |
|
||||
| Code submission | 3 attempts | 15 minutes | session |
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation Strategy**:
|
||||
- Use Redis for distributed rate limiting
|
||||
- Token bucket algorithm
|
||||
- Exponential backoff on failures
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Testing
|
||||
|
||||
### Required Security Tests
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Input Validation**:
|
||||
- Malformed URLs (me, client_id, redirect_uri)
|
||||
- SQL injection attempts
|
||||
- XSS attempts
|
||||
- Email injection
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Authentication**:
|
||||
- Expired code rejection
|
||||
- Used code rejection
|
||||
- Invalid code rejection
|
||||
- Brute force resistance
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Authorization**:
|
||||
- State parameter validation
|
||||
- Redirect URI validation
|
||||
- Open redirect prevention
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Token Security**:
|
||||
- Timing attack resistance
|
||||
- Token theft scenarios
|
||||
- Expiration enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
5. **TLS/HTTPS**:
|
||||
- HTTP rejection in production
|
||||
- Security headers presence
|
||||
- Certificate validation
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Scanning Tools
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Tools**:
|
||||
- `bandit`: Python security linter
|
||||
- `pip-audit`: Dependency vulnerability scanner
|
||||
- `pytest`: Security-focused test cases
|
||||
|
||||
**CI/CD Integration**:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# GitHub Actions example
|
||||
security:
|
||||
- name: Run Bandit
|
||||
run: uv run bandit -r src/gondulf
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Scan Dependencies
|
||||
run: uv run pip-audit
|
||||
|
||||
- name: Run Security Tests
|
||||
run: uv run pytest tests/security/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Incident Response
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Event Monitoring
|
||||
|
||||
**Monitor For**:
|
||||
1. Multiple failed authentication attempts
|
||||
2. Authorization code reuse attempts
|
||||
3. Invalid token presentation
|
||||
4. Unusual DNS verification failures
|
||||
5. Email send failures (potential abuse)
|
||||
|
||||
**Alerting** (future):
|
||||
- Admin email on critical events
|
||||
- Webhook integration (Slack, Discord)
|
||||
- Metrics dashboard (Grafana)
|
||||
|
||||
### Breach Response Plan (Future)
|
||||
|
||||
**If Access Tokens Compromised**:
|
||||
1. Revoke all active tokens
|
||||
2. Force re-authentication
|
||||
3. Notify affected users (via domain)
|
||||
4. Rotate SECRET_KEY
|
||||
5. Audit logs for suspicious activity
|
||||
|
||||
**If Database Compromised**:
|
||||
1. Assess data exposure (only hashes + domains)
|
||||
2. Rotate all tokens
|
||||
3. Review access logs
|
||||
4. Notify users if domains exposed
|
||||
|
||||
## Compliance Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
### GDPR Compliance
|
||||
|
||||
**Personal Data Stored**:
|
||||
- Domain names (considered PII in some jurisdictions)
|
||||
- Timestamps (associated with domains)
|
||||
|
||||
**GDPR Rights**:
|
||||
- **Right to Access**: Admin can query database
|
||||
- **Right to Erasure**: Admin can delete domain records
|
||||
- **Right to Portability**: Data export feature (future)
|
||||
|
||||
**Privacy Policy** (required):
|
||||
- Document what data is collected (domains, timestamps)
|
||||
- Document how data is used (authentication)
|
||||
- Document retention policy (indefinite unless deleted)
|
||||
- Provide contact for data requests
|
||||
|
||||
### Security Disclosure
|
||||
|
||||
**Security Policy** (future):
|
||||
- Responsible disclosure process
|
||||
- Security contact (security@domain)
|
||||
- GPG key for encrypted reports
|
||||
- Acknowledgments for researchers
|
||||
|
||||
