Hot-path JWT verification rebuilt the public key on every call:
jwk -> ToRSAPublicKey -> x509.MarshalPKIXPublicKey -> pem.Encode
-> verifySignature -> pem.Decode -> x509.ParsePKIXPublicKey -> verify
Under yaegi this pinned a CPU when many concurrent dashboard panels
poll behind the middleware. The PEM round trip is pure waste.
* jwk.go: cache pre-parsed crypto.PublicKey per kid alongside the
raw JWKSet (parallel cache entry, same 1h TTL, invalidates together).
* jwt.go: split verifySignatureWithKey from verifySignature; existing
PEM-input entry point preserved for backchannel-logout callers.
* token_manager.go: VerifyJWTSignatureAndClaims now goes straight from
jwks cache to verifySignatureWithKey, no PEM round trip and no
per-request availableKids slice.
* universal_cache.go: token/JWK/session Get() takes RLock when the
entry is unexpired, so concurrent token verifications no longer
serialize on a single mutex. LRU semantics for general and metadata
caches are unchanged (tests cover the strict-LRU contract there).
* mocks: MockJWKCache, EnhancedMockJWKCache, mockJWKCacheForLogout,
staticJWKCache satisfy the extended interface.
* Smarter approach to the cookies
- Single maxCookieSize = 1400 constant with clear documentation
- Combined cookie storage for ~40-45% size reduction
- Backward compatible migration from legacy cookies
* Tuneup the code.
* Allow to use multiple realms
This change is a ressurection of PR #88 which can't be merged due to significant refactor of the codebase.
* Fix the autocleanup routine to handle multiple realms correctly, update tests.
* Metadata rediscovery when provider is unavailable for any reason during the start.
This one prevents the permanent 503 from the plugin when OIDC provider was for some reason unavailable during the start.
* Allow internal IPs for OIDC configuration via extra flag.
Addresses issue #97
* Allow for internal IPs in OIDC configuration.
Addresses issue #97.
* feat: Add allowPrivateIPAddresses config option for internal networks
Adds a new configuration option `allowPrivateIPAddresses` that allows
OIDC provider URLs to use private IP addresses (10.x.x.x, 172.16-31.x.x,
192.168.x.x). This is useful for internal deployments where Keycloak or
other OIDC providers run on private networks without DNS resolution.
Security considerations:
- Loopback addresses (127.0.0.1, localhost, ::1) remain blocked
- Link-local addresses (169.254.x.x) remain blocked
- Default is false (secure by default)
Fixes#97
* feat: Support non-email user identifiers for Azure AD
Add userIdentifierClaim configuration option to support Azure AD users
without email addresses. This allows using alternative JWT claims like
"sub", "oid", "upn", or "preferred_username" for user identification.
- Default behavior uses "email" claim (backward compatible)
- Falls back to "sub" claim if configured claim is missing
- allowedUsers matches against the configured claim value
- allowedUserDomains only applies when using email-based identification
Fixes#95
* Race condition on traefik pod startup
When the plugin initializes and calls GetMetadataWithRecovery():
1. Checks cache first (if metadata is cached, returns immediately)
2. Creates a retry executor with startup-optimized settings (10 attempts, 1s delays)
3. Attempts to fetch metadata from the OIDC provider
4. If the fetch fails with a retryable error (connection refused, EOF, TLS/certificate errors, Traefik default cert), it waits and retries
5. After 10 attempts or on a non-retryable error, returns the error
This allows the plugin to handle the race condition where:
- Traefik initializes the plugin before routes are established
- Traefik serves its default certificate before loading real ones
- The OIDC provider pod isn't fully ready yet
Fixes issue #90

* Headers too big and 431 responses
Added new option `minimalHeaders` to reduce the size of forwarded headers from the auth middleware to backend services.
- When minimalHeaders: false (default): All headers are forwarded as before
- X-Forwarded-User (always set)
- X-Auth-Request-Redirect
- X-Auth-Request-User
- X-Auth-Request-Token (the large ID token)
- X-User-Groups, X-User-Roles (if configured)
- When minimalHeaders: true: Reduces header overhead
- X-Forwarded-User (always set)
- X-User-Groups, X-User-Roles (still forwarded if configured)
- Custom templated headers (still processed)
- Skipped: X-Auth-Request-Token, X-Auth-Request-User, X-Auth-Request-Redirect

* Add sharded cache and prevention of CPU spikes / locks
* Add dynamic client registration with oidc provider
* Fix race condition introduced during the sharded cache implementation.
* Add page for traefikoidc.
* Automatic discovery of the scopes.
Issue #61 raised very valid concerns about users configuring scopes that are not supported by the provider.
This change introduces automatic discovery of supported scopes by fetching the provider's discovery document and filtering out unsupported scopes.
Before:
User configures: scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email", "offline_access"]
Self-hosted GitLab: "The requested scope is invalid, unknown, or malformed"
Authentication: ❌ FAILS
After:
User configures: scopes: ["openid", "profile", "email", "offline_access"]
Middleware checks discovery doc → offline_access not supported
Automatically filters to: ["openid", "profile", "email"]
Authentication: ✅ SUCCEEDS
* Resolves issue #74 by enabling user to specify expected audience in the configuration.
* Fix flaky tests.
* Fix bug affecting Azure OIDC authentication ( and most likely others )
* Fixes issue #51
* Ensure that appended roles are unique. Update the documentation.
* Improvements targetting possible memory usage spikes.
* Additional fixes and cleanup

* Issue #53: Fix CSRF token handling in reverse proxy
1. ✅ HTTPS Detection Fixed (session.go:723)
- Now uses X-Forwarded-Proto header instead of r.URL.Scheme
- Properly detects HTTPS in reverse proxy environments
2. ✅ SameSite Cookie Attribute Fixed
- Removed automatic SameSiteStrictMode for HTTPS (would break OAuth)
- Keeps SameSiteLaxMode to allow OAuth callbacks from external domains
- Only uses Strict for AJAX requests which don't involve OAuth redirects
3. ✅ Cookie Domain Handling Fixed
- Now respects X-Forwarded-Host header for cookie domain
- Ensures cookies are set for the public domain, not internal proxy domain
4. ✅ EnhanceSessionSecurity Properly Integrated
- Function is now actually called during session save
- Applies security enhancements without breaking OAuth flow
Why Issue #53 Failed Before:
1. Cookies were not marked Secure in HTTPS environments (browser wouldn't send them back)
2. If they had been Secure with SameSite=Strict, Azure callbacks would still fail
3. Cookie domain might have been wrong (internal vs public domain)
Why It Works Now:
1. Cookies are properly marked Secure for HTTPS
2. Uses SameSite=Lax to allow OAuth provider callbacks
3. Cookie domain uses public domain from X-Forwarded-Host
4. CSRF token persists through the entire OAuth flow
* Next set of enhancements together with memory usage improvements.
* Memory leak fixes and optimisations.
* CSRF and Cookie Domain fixes
* fixup! CSRF and Cookie Domain fixes

Removed global metadata cache and sync.Once
Each middleware instance now handles its own metadata initialization
Added tests to verify multiple instances work correctly
The changes ensure that:
Each route gets its own properly initialized middleware instance
Metadata is fetched and set correctly for each instance
No shared state between instances that could cause conflicts
Each instance can handle requests independently
The added test verifies this by creating multiple middleware instances with different routes and confirming they all initialize and function correctly. The test specifically checks that:
Each instance initializes successfully
Each instance gets its own metadata configuration
Each instance can handle requests independently
Callback URLs are correctly set per route
