* docs: bearer-token auth design spec
* docs: harden bearer-auth spec with security review findings
* feat(bearer): opt-in M2M bearer-token authentication
Adds an opt-in Authorization: Bearer <jwt> path for machine-to-machine
clients. Replaces and supersedes the broken approach in PR #93
(synthetic-session that omitted user_identifier and skipped ID-token
rejection / replay-protection-semantics / kid-pinning / etc.).
Design
Two auth entrypoints feed one shared post-auth pipeline:
cookie path ─┐
├── forwardAuthorized(rw, req, *principal)
bearer path ─┘ (roles/groups, header injection, security
headers, cookie strip, forward)
buildPrincipalFromSession and buildPrincipalFromBearerToken produce
the same `principal` value type. forwardAuthorized is session-agnostic
and runs the existing post-auth work; processAuthorizedRequest now
wraps it with the session-specific concerns (backchannel-logout,
dirty/Save). The cookie path's behaviour is byte-identical to before
this PR; the existing test suite passes unmodified.
Security hardening baked into the bearer path
- Audience MANDATORY. Startup fails when EnableBearerAuth=true and
Audience is empty.
- BearerIdentifierClaim defaults to "sub"; "email" is rejected at
startup to avoid the unverified-email spoofing footgun. Cookie
path's UserIdentifierClaim is unaffected and still defaults to
"email".
- ID tokens explicitly rejected via the existing detectTokenType
helper (nonce, typ=at+jwt, token_use, scope, aud-vs-clientID
heuristics); belt-and-braces nonce/token_use=id rejection on top.
- alg pinned to asymmetric allowlist (RS/PS/ES 256/384/512) BEFORE
JWKS fetch, blocking alg=none and alg=HS* probes from amplifying
into upstream calls.
- kid length capped at 256 bytes and charset-restricted before JWKS
fetch, blocking pathological-kid JWKS amplification.
- Multi-audience tokens require azp == clientID.
- iat upper-age bound (MaxTokenAgeSeconds, default 24h) bounds clock-
manipulation and forever-token abuse.
- Identifier sanitization: length cap, control-char + bidi-override
+ delimiter (, ; =) rejection.
- Per-IP failure throttle: configurable threshold/window/penalty;
returns 429 + Retry-After. Limits offline-guessing-style attacks
and protects the shared rate-limiter / JWKS endpoint.
- JTI replay marking suppressed via new internal verifyOpts
{skipReplayMarking} so the same bearer can be reused until exp;
the blacklist Get stays active so RevokeToken still terminates a
bearer token immediately. The existing exported VerifyToken
interface is unchanged so all mocks continue to work.
- Cookie wins by default when both bearer and cookie are present
(safer against browser/extension/proxy bearer injection).
Operator can flip via BearerOverridesCookie.
- Authorization header stripped on forward by default; also stripped
on excluded URLs so the token can't leak into health/metrics
downstream logs.
- Optional RFC 7662 introspection via existing
requireTokenIntrospection. Introspection-endpoint failure returns
503 (distinguishes infra from token rejection).
- 401s use RFC 6750 WWW-Authenticate hints (toggleable). Failure
reason is logged at debug; raw tokens are never logged.
Implementation
- principal.go: pure-data principal type and buildPrincipalFromSession.
- bearer_auth.go: alg/kid pin, classifier, identifier sanitization,
multi-aud azp gate, iat age check, per-IP failure tracker,
handleBearerRequest, buildPrincipalFromBearerToken.
- token_manager.go: VerifyToken now wraps a new verifyTokenWithOpts
that accepts internal-only verifyOpts. Existing callers, the
TokenVerifier interface, and all mocks unchanged.
- middleware.go: extracted forwardAuthorized from
processAuthorizedRequest; wired bearer detection after init wait
+ after bypass; excluded-URL Authorization strip when bearer
enabled.
- settings.go: ten new config fields with defaults applied in
CreateConfig.
- main.go: startup validation for audience + identifier-claim
guard; bearer failure tracker init.
Tests
- bearer_auth_test.go: table-driven helper tests for every new
component (parseBearerJOSEHeader, sanitizeBearerIdentifier,
resolveBearerIdentifier, enforceMultiAudienceAzp, enforceIatAge,
bearerFailureTracker, detectBearerToken). Integration tests
through ServeHTTP covering happy path, ID-token rejection,
alg=none rejection, oversized kid, multi-aud with/without azp,
iat-too-old, bidi identifier, replay (100x reuse), 429 throttle
trip, excluded-URL strip, roles gate, cookie-wins precedence,
BearerOverridesCookie, oversized token, malformed JWT,
feature-off pass-through. Startup validation for audience-
required and email-identifier-rejected.
- All existing tests pass unmodified (cookie-path regression).
- go vet clean. golangci-lint clean (0 issues). Race detector
clean on bearer tests.

* fix(cache): redact raw cache keys in debug logs (CodeQL go/clear-text-logging)
CodeQL flagged 9 high-severity alerts (go/clear-text-logging) where the
in-memory cache and the hybrid L1+L2 backend printed `key=%s` at debug.
Cache callers (token cache, blacklist, introspection cache) pass raw
access / refresh / id tokens as cache keys, so any debug-enabled
deployment would write them to log streams.
Pre-existing issue. CodeQL started flagging it on this PR because the
new bearer-auth path adds a data-flow source (req.Header.Get("Authorization"))
that reaches the existing logging sinks via the same cache. The cookie
path had the same risk but wasn't tracked as taint by CodeQL.
Fix: hash the key (SHA-256[:8] hex) before printing. Same approach the
bearer-auth logger uses for principal identifiers (spec §13). Doesn't
change cache semantics — same key still produces the same hash, so
debug correlation across log lines is preserved without exposing the
raw value.
Touches both affected packages:
- internal/cache/cache.go (2 sites: Set + LRU eviction)
- internal/cache/backends/hybrid.go (12 sites: L1/L2 read/write/fallback)
New helper `redactKey` colocated with each package (unexported,
package-local) keeps the change blast radius narrow. Tests green; lint
clean.
* docs(bearer): how to obtain bearer tokens from the OIDC provider
Adds a section walking operators through the OAuth 2.0 client_credentials
flow (RFC 6749 §4.4) and the JWT bearer assertion alternative (RFC 7523),
with a worked Auth0-shape curl example, a per-provider quick reference
(Auth0, Okta, Keycloak, Entra v2, Cognito, GitLab, Google), operational
notes (token TTL, caching, JWKS rotation, revocation, scope vs audience,
secret hygiene), and a three-line validation loop.
Most common operator confusion: "I enabled the feature but tokens get
401'd" — almost always missing or wrong audience. The new section makes
the audience-matching requirement loud, with per-provider parameter
names so people don't have to dig through IdP docs.
Locations:
- docs/BEARER_AUTH.md — full section under "Quick start"
- README.md — short snippet + deep link
revocation endpoints, joining the existing client_secret_post default.
Both are opt-in via the new clientAuthMethod config field. Closes#135.
private_key_jwt (RFC 7523 §2.2 / OpenID Connect Core §9)
========================================================
Plugin signs a short-lived JWT with a configured private key and presents
it as client_assertion. Use when the IdP enforces short secret TTLs or
requires secretless client auth (Microsoft Entra ID / Azure AD, Okta,
Auth0, Keycloak).
New Config fields:
clientAuthMethod (default: client_secret_post)
clientAssertionPrivateKey (inline PEM)
clientAssertionKeyPath (PEM file path; mutually exclusive)
clientAssertionKeyID (JWS kid header — required)
clientAssertionAlg (default: RS256; RS/PS/ES 256–512 supported)
PEM forms accepted: PKCS#8, PKCS#1, SEC1.
Assertion claims: iss=sub=clientID, aud=tokenURL, iat=now, exp=now+60s,
random 16-byte hex jti per request. ECDSA signatures are raw r||s per
RFC 7515 (not ASN.1).
client_secret_basic (RFC 6749 §2.3.1)
=====================================
Sends credentials in the Authorization: Basic header instead of the
body. Both halves are form-urlencoded individually before base64 — that
encoding step is required by the spec and is NOT what stdlib's
http.Request.SetBasicAuth does, so the plugin uses its own helper. The
form body omits client_id and client_secret on this path.
Wire-up
=======
Both methods are dispatched at the same two call sites:
helpers.go:exchangeTokens — auth_code + refresh_token grants
token_manager.go:RevokeTokenWithProvider — RFC 7009 revocation
Existing clientSecret deployments are unaffected — empty
clientAuthMethod maps to the historical client_secret_post behavior, and
clientAssertion remains nil unless the new fields are set.
Yaegi compatibility
===================
All required crypto/rsa, crypto/ecdsa, crypto/x509, encoding/pem and
crypto/sha256/384/512 symbols are exposed by the traefik/yaegi stdlib
symbol tables (RSA SignPKCS1v15 + SignPSS, ECDSA Sign,
ParsePKCS8/1PrivateKey, ParseECPrivateKey).
Tests (16 new)
==============
Algorithm-family coverage:
TestIssue135_SignerRSAFamily — RS256/384/512 + PS256/384/512

* fix(refresh): wire RefreshCoordinator into the live refresh path
The RefreshCoordinator existed but was never instantiated. The actual
refresh path used only session.refreshMutex, which is per-SessionData
instance - and SessionData is pulled from a sync.Pool per request -
so concurrent requests sharing a refresh token had ZERO coordination.
Symptom: when access_token expired (e.g. 5min Zitadel default), every
in-flight request from a polling client (Grafana panels) entered the
refresh path simultaneously and POSTed the same refresh_token to the
IdP. With refresh-token rotation enabled (Zitadel/Authentik default),
only one grant succeeded; the rest got invalid_grant and each cleared
the entire session. Subsequent requests then thrashed in re-auth loops.
This commit:
- adds refreshCoordinator field on TraefikOidc
- instantiates it in NewWithContext with DefaultRefreshCoordinatorConfig
- shuts it down in Close() under shutdownOnce
- routes refreshToken() through the coordinator via coordinatedTokenRefresh,
which collapses concurrent grants to a single upstream call per
refresh_token hash
- exports refreshCoordinatorSessionID for both internal hashing and the
middleware-level wireup so dedup keys stay aligned
Behavioural notes:
- nil-coordinator fallback preserves existing tests that build TraefikOidc
literals without going through the constructor
- followers receive the same TokenResponse/error as the leader, so no
per-instance code paths change
- existing TestGetNewTokenWithRefreshToken_Concurrency still passes
because it hits GetNewTokenWithRefreshToken directly, below the
coordinator boundary
Tests:
- refresh_coordinator_wireup_test.go: 50 concurrent refreshes coalesce
to <=2 upstream calls; distinct tokens still run in parallel; nil
coordinator falls back cleanly
* perf(cache): bound L1 backfill goroutines in HybridBackend
Get() and GetMany() previously spawned a goroutine per L2 hit to write
the value through to L1. Under sustained polling traffic (e.g. a Grafana
dashboard refreshing every 30s with N panels) this minted thousands of
goroutines, each running in Yaegi - directly contributing to the
~1000% CPU spike that pairs with the refresh-token herd.
Replace the per-hit goroutines with a single l1BackfillWorker fed by
l1BackfillBuffer, mirroring the existing asyncWriteBuffer/asyncWriteWorker
pattern for L2 writes. Buffer overflow drops the backfill (counted via
l1BackfillDrops) - a dropped backfill just means the next L2 hit for
that key re-queues it, which is safe.
Tests:
- TestHybridBackend_L1BackfillBounded: 1000 distinct L2 hits keep
goroutine count within +20 of baseline (pre-fix it grew by ~1000)
- TestHybridBackend_L1BackfillFullDrops: drops are accounted for when
the buffer is saturated and the worker is stopped
* feat(refresh): implement isRefreshTokenExpired heuristic
Replace the placeholder `return false` with a real check based on the
issued_at timestamp that SetRefreshToken already stamps into the session.
Gated by a new MaxRefreshTokenAgeSeconds config field (default 21600 =
6h, matching the existing comment). 0 disables the check.
This wires the previously-dead refreshTokenExpired branch in middleware.go,
which short-circuits AJAX requests with a 401 instead of letting them
hammer the IdP for a refresh token that's almost certainly stale - the
classic Grafana-after-long-pause failure mode.
Behaviour:
- maxRefreshTokenAge=0 disables the check (preserves prior behaviour)
- legacy sessions without issued_at still attempt one refresh; the IdP
remains the source of truth on first try
- nil-receiver and nil-session guards keep test code that builds
TraefikOidc literals safe
Tests:
- TestIsRefreshTokenExpired_DisabledWhenAgeZero
- TestIsRefreshTokenExpired_LegacySessionWithoutTimestamp
- TestIsRefreshTokenExpired_WithinWindow
- TestIsRefreshTokenExpired_BeyondWindow
- TestIsRefreshTokenExpired_NilGuards
* perf(token): skip parseJWT on cache hit in VerifyToken
The token cache fast-return existed but ran AFTER parseJWT, so every
validation paid for base64 + JSON unmarshal even on a hit. Under bursty
traffic (e.g. 10+ concurrent panel requests on every Grafana dashboard
refresh, each calling validateStandardTokens which verifies BOTH the
access token and the ID token), this is two redundant parses per
request multiplied by the panel count.
Move the cache lookup ahead of parseJWT. On a hit the function returns
nil immediately. On a miss the original flow runs unchanged.
Also nil-guard t.tokenCache to keep partial-literal test instances safe
(matches the same pattern we already use for tokenBlacklist).
Tests:
- TestVerifyToken_CacheHitSkipsParse: cache pre-populated with claims
for a token whose body would fail parseJWT - returns nil iff the
fast-path bypasses the parse
- TestVerifyToken_CacheMissStillParses: a syntactically valid but
unsigned token still errors past parseJWT on cache miss
* feat(refresh): cross-replica refresh-grant dedup via shared cache
The in-process RefreshCoordinator added in 9f96d8c already collapses
concurrent refresh-token grants on a single Traefik replica. With the
plugin's existing Redis (Dragonfly) cache infrastructure available, we
can extend that dedup across replicas: if pod A refreshes a token at
T+0 and pod B receives a request for the same session at T+1, pod B
should reuse pod A's result rather than POSTing the now-rotated refresh
token to the IdP.
Implementation:
- Add a refreshResultCache to UniversalCacheManager (memory-only when
Redis is disabled, Redis-backed in production via the existing
hybrid/Redis-only mode selection)
- Expose it through CacheManager.GetSharedRefreshResultCache and on the
TraefikOidc struct as refreshResultCache (CacheInterface)
- Inside the closure passed to RefreshCoordinator.CoordinateRefresh,
consult the cache first; on hit return immediately, on miss exchange
with the IdP and populate the cache for peers
- 5s TTL: long enough for siblings to observe, short enough that a
rotated refresh token cannot be re-supplied after the IdP has moved on
- Errors are intentionally NOT cached - peers must always be able to
retry on their own
Pragmatic choice: optimistic cache rather than a hard distributed lock.
- A hard lock (SET NX + poll) doubles Redis RTT and risks dead-locks
if a Traefik pod dies mid-grant.
- The user's BGP+Local externalTrafficPolicy already pins ingress for
a session to one node in steady state, so cross-pod racing is rare.
- This optimistic path catches the rare failover case without adding
failure modes.
Tests:
- TestCoordinatedTokenRefresh_CrossReplicaCacheHit: pre-populated cache
short-circuits the upstream call entirely (0 IdP calls)
- TestCoordinatedTokenRefresh_PopulatesCrossReplicaCache: leader stores
a successful result for peers to find
- TestCoordinatedTokenRefresh_ErrorIsNotCached: invalid_grant must not
poison the dedup cache - peers must retry independently
* 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 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
* 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

* 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

* 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
