* fix(security): encrypt session cookies + fail closed on invalid config
Batch 1 of security audit remediation (ranks 1, 2, 6).
- session.go: derive independent HMAC + AES-256 keys via stdlib HKDF-SHA256
and build the gorilla cookie store with both, so session cookies are now
encrypted, not merely signed. The single-key store previously left OIDC
access/refresh/ID tokens recoverable from raw cookie bytes. Cookie format
changes, so existing sessions are invalidated on deploy (one-time re-login).
- main.go: call config.Validate() at construction and error out on failure,
instead of silently substituting a public hardcoded encryption key for
empty/short keys (which allowed session forgery). The yaegi analyzer
passes via .traefik.yml testData.
- settings.go: isValidSecureURL permits plaintext HTTP for loopback hosts
only (RFC 8252); remote providers must still use HTTPS.
- tests: complete configs that did not satisfy Validate(); add regression
tests in security_audit_fixes_test.go.
Configs below documented minimums (rateLimit < 10, key < 32 chars) are now
rejected at startup (fail closed).
* fix(security): validate discovered OIDC endpoints + pin introspection host
Batch 2 of security audit remediation (ranks 3, 4).
- url_helpers.go: add validateDiscoveredEndpoint, an SSRF screen for endpoints
taken from the provider discovery document (jwks_uri, token, authorization,
revocation, end_session, introspection, registration). Blocks link-local
(cloud metadata 169.254.169.254), multicast, unspecified and private
addresses (unless allowPrivateIPAddresses); blocks loopback unless the
configured providerURL is itself loopback (dev/test). Cross-domain JWKS
hosts (e.g. Google) stay allowed. Add sameHost helper.
- main.go: updateMetadataEndpoints screens every discovered endpoint and
blanks any that fail (fail closed downstream). The introspection endpoint
carries the client secret via HTTP Basic, so it is additionally pinned to
the providerURL host to stop a poisoned discovery document exfiltrating the
secret to an attacker-controlled host.
- tests: regression tests for the SSRF guard and the host pin.
* fix(security): close open redirects + anchor excluded-URL matching
Batch 3 of security audit remediation (ranks 5, 14, 15).
- auth_flow.go: run the stored incoming path through normalizeLogoutPath
before using it as the post-login redirect, so //evil.com and /\evil.com
payloads become host-relative (open-redirect, rank 5).
- url_helpers.go: excluded-URL matching is anchored at a natural boundary
(exact, sub-path "/", or file extension "."), so excluding "/public" no
longer also bypasses auth on "/publicsecret"; "/favicon" still matches
"/favicon.ico" (rank 14).
- internal/utils: X-Forwarded-Host is sanitized (first value only; reject
CRLF/whitespace/multi-value) before building redirect URLs (rank 15).
- helpers.go: the logout redirect used when there is no provider end-session
endpoint is host-relative, never an absolute URL derived from the
client-controllable request host (logout open-redirect, rank 15).
- tests: update two logout cases that asserted the old absolute redirect;
add regression tests.
* fix(security): reject unverified Azure tokens; fix transport TLS reuse
Batch 4 of security audit remediation (ranks 7, 11).
- token_validation_rs.go: an Azure nonce-bearing access token that cannot be
cryptographically verified no longer returns "authenticated" when there is
no ID token to corroborate it; it refreshes (if possible) or forces
re-authentication instead of failing open (rank 7).
- http_client_pool.go: the at-limit transport-reuse path now takes the write
lock before mutating refCount (fixes a data race) and only reuses a
transport whose TLS settings (CA pool + InsecureSkipVerify) match the
caller's, never one with a different trust store; if none matches it returns
nil so the caller falls back to a verifying default transport (rank 11).
- tests: add a transport-pool TLS-isolation regression test.
* fix(security): stop logging templated header values (token leak)
Batch 5 of security audit remediation (rank 16).
middleware.go: templated downstream headers commonly carry the access token
(e.g. "Authorization: Bearer {{.AccessToken}}"). The debug log line printed
the full header value, leaking credentials into logs. Log the header name and
byte length instead.
* fix(security): cache-key collision, cache-config divergence, fleet cleanup
Batch 6 of security audit remediation (ranks 9, 10, 12).
- token_manager.go: detectTokenType keys its cache on a SHA-256 hash of the
full token instead of the first 32 chars (which are only the base64url JWT
header). Distinct tokens sharing alg+kid no longer collide and get
mis-classified (rank 10).
- cache_manager.go: the process-global cache manager is initialized once and
shared across plugin instances; it now logs a loud warning when a later
instance requests a different explicit Redis backend that is silently
ignored, surfacing the cross-instance state-isolation hazard (rank 9).
- singleton_resources.go / main.go / utilities.go: track a process-global live
instance count; the shared singleton-token-cleanup task is stopped only when
the LAST instance shuts down, so one instance's Close() (e.g. a config reload)
no longer kills cleanup for surviving instances (rank 12).
- tests: update TestDetectTokenTypeCaching for the new key; add regression tests.
* fix(security): bound introspection cache + cookie lifetime to config
Batch 7 of security audit remediation (ranks 8, 13).
- token_introspection.go: when requireTokenIntrospection is enabled, cap the
positive introspection-result cache at 30s (instead of 5m) so a token
revoked at the provider stops passing within ~30s, matching the operator's
near-real-time revocation expectation (rank 8).
- session.go: bind the cookie store's MaxAge to the configured sessionMaxAge,
so the cookie codec's cryptographic timestamp validity is no longer fixed at
gorilla's 30-day default; a stolen cookie is valid only for the configured
session lifetime (rank 13).
- tests: add a cookie-lifetime regression test.
* fix(security): low-severity hardening (cache, DoS caps, PKCE, throttle)
Batch 8 of security audit remediation — low severity
(ranks 24, 25, 27, 29, 31, 36, 37, 41, 45, 46, 49).
- universal_cache.go: updateLocalCache updates an existing key in place instead
of orphaning its LRU element and double-counting currentSize/currentMemory
(rank 36 — the only production-reachable bug in this batch).
- jwk.go / metadata_cache.go / token_introspection.go: bound response bodies
with io.LimitReader (1 MiB) to prevent memory exhaustion from a hostile or
buggy provider (ranks 24, 25).
- jwk.go: skip JWKs not usable for signature verification (use != sig, or
key_ops without "verify") when building the key set (rank 49).
- auth_flow.go: fail closed at the callback when PKCE is enabled but the code
verifier is missing, instead of silently dropping it (rank 27).
- utilities.go / main.go: match allowedUserDomains case-insensitively (rank 31).
- bearer_auth.go: a single success no longer wipes an active per-IP penalty;
the counter resets only when no penalty is in effect (rank 29).
- main.go: handle (not discard) the NewSessionManager error (rank 37).
- error_recovery.go: take a write lock in isServiceDegraded (it deletes from a
map); compare retryable-error substrings case-insensitively (ranks 45, 46).
- singleton_resources.go: bind the generic-cache cleanup goroutine to the
resource-manager shutdown channel so it cannot outlive its owner (rank 41).
- tests: update the bearer throttle test to the corrected penalty semantics.
* fix(security): header sanitization, issuer pinning, fail-closed paths
Batch 9 of security audit remediation (ranks 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 30, 33, 34).
- middleware.go / bearer_auth.go: sanitize claim-derived values on the cookie
auth path before injecting them into downstream headers. Drop group/role and
identifier values containing control chars, bidi-override runes, or the
, ; = delimiters (a comma would inject phantom entries into X-User-Groups);
reject control/bidi/over-length in rendered templated header output (but
permit , ; = in free-form values such as a bearer token). The bearer path
already sanitized; the cookie path did not (ranks 33, 34).
- main.go / metadata_cache.go: pin the discovered issuer to the configured
provider host (sameHost) and refuse/never-cache a mismatch, so a poisoned
discovery document cannot redefine the JWT trust anchor (ranks 21, 22).
- token_introspection.go: when a distinct API audience is configured, fail
closed on a missing or mismatched introspection audience; aud parsed as
string-or-array per RFC 7662 (rank 19).
- logout.go: front-channel logout requires a matching issuer; an empty iss is
rejected (blocks unauthenticated forced-logout via a known sid) (rank 30).
- token_validation_rs.go: an opaque access token with no ID token and no
successful introspection fails closed (re-auth) instead of authenticating
(ranks 18, 20).
- tests: realistic same-host provider mocks; regression tests for the header
sanitization distinction and the fail-closed paths.
* chore(security): remove unwired dead code with latent footguns
Batch 10 of security audit remediation — delete confirmed-dead, unwired
subsystems (ranks 26, 35, 50). None had a production caller (grep-verified);
removal eliminates the latent footguns and ~2.1k lines of dead code.
- token_validator.go (deleted): an unused *TokenValidator whose validateJWT set
Valid=true with NO signature verification — a severe footgun if ever wired
(rank 50). The wired RS-aware validators are unaffected.
- security_monitoring.go (deleted): an unused *SecurityMonitor / ExtractClientIP
that trusted spoofable X-Forwarded-For / X-Real-IP. The live bearer throttle
uses clientIPForBearer (RemoteAddr-only), unchanged (rank 35).
- dynamic_client_registration.go: removed the RFC 7592 management methods
(Update/Read/DeleteClientRegistration) that dereferenced an attacker-
influenced RegistrationClientURI with the registration token attached and no
HTTPS/SSRF gate, and had no callers. The wired RFC 7591 RegisterClient and
credential-store helpers are kept (rank 26).
- tests: removed the tests covering the deleted code.
* chore: add Makefile with yaegi load validation
No Makefile existed. The new `yaegi-validate` target interprets the plugin
under the yaegi interpreter the same way Traefik loads it, catching yaegi-only
incompatibilities (unsupported stdlib symbols, reflection edge cases) that the
native `go build` / `go test` toolchain does not. Importing the plugin forces
yaegi to interpret every file plus its vendored deps; CreateConfig + New
exercise the instantiation path.
- cmd/yaegicheck/main.go: the load driver, marked //go:build ignore so it is
excluded from `go build ./...` (avoids VCS-stamping a main binary, which
fails in git-worktree layouts) yet is run explicitly by yaegi.
- Makefile: build / fmt / vet / lint / test / vendor / yaegi-validate / check
targets; `make check` runs vet + tests + yaegi-validate.
Verified: `make yaegi-validate` passes on this branch — the HKDF cookie
encryption, net-based endpoint validation, and claim sanitizers all interpret
and instantiate cleanly under yaegi.
* ci: bump workflow Go toolchain to 1.25; pin yaegi-validate to v0.16.1
Traefik v3.7.1 (the deployed version) is built with `go 1.25.0`, so the PR and
release workflows now use Go 1.25.x to match the toolchain Traefik uses.
Important distinction: the CI Go version is the build TOOLCHAIN. The plugin's
actual interpreter-compatibility ceiling is the yaegi version Traefik bundles
(v0.16.1, which declares go 1.21 and ships a ~Go 1.22 stdlib symbol surface),
NOT the CI Go version. That ceiling is enforced by `make yaegi-validate` plus
the go.mod language directive — e.g. it is why HKDF is hand-rolled with
hmac+sha256 rather than Go 1.24's crypto/hkdf, which yaegi v0.16.1 lacks.
Also pin Makefile YAEGI_VERSION to v0.16.1 (what Traefik v3.7.1 vendors) so
yaegi-validate exercises the real deployed interpreter instead of @latest,
which could pass on a newer yaegi that supports symbols the deployed one does
not.
* docs: align README/CONFIGURATION with branch behavior changes
- excludedURLs: documented as segment/extension-boundary matching (was
"prefix-matched") — "/public" no longer also matches "/publicsecret" (rank 14).
- Front-channel logout now requires a matching `iss`; requests without one are
rejected with 400 (rank 30).
- Add an "Upgrading from an earlier release" note: session cookies are now
AES-256 encrypted with lifetime tracking sessionMaxAge (one-time re-login on
upgrade), and invalid configuration (rateLimit < 10, key < 32 bytes, missing
callbackURL, non-HTTPS remote providerURL) now fails closed at startup.
* fix: remove staticcheck-flagged unused functions; wire staticcheck into make check
CI Static Analysis (standalone staticcheck) failed with U1000 "unused":
- dynamic_client_registration.go: deleteCredentialsFromStore — its only caller
was the RFC 7592 DeleteClientRegistration removed in the dead-code batch.
- token_test.go: createTestJWTSimple — its only callers were the TokenValidator
tests removed in the same batch.
Both confirmed to have zero remaining callers and removed. build / vet /
go test ./... / staticcheck ./... all green.
The pre-commit hook runs golangci-lint, but CI runs standalone staticcheck
(which flags U1000). Add a `staticcheck` Makefile target and include it in
`make check` so this class of finding is caught locally before push.
* fix(test): stabilize flaky TestWorkerPool_TaskPanic
tasksFailed is incremented in the worker's deferred recover(), which runs after the panicking task's own defer wg.Done(). wg.Wait() could therefore return before the failure was recorded, so reading the counter immediately raced and flaked on slow CI runners. Poll until the failure lands (2s budget) instead. Verified 200x plain + 50x under -race/GOMAXPROCS=1.
The v1.0.14 fix replaced one contended sync.RWMutex (RefreshCoordinator.
refreshMutex) with sync.Map. Production showed the same death-spiral
signature recurring ~2 hours later — same shape, different mutex:
65 goroutines stuck on a sync.(*RWMutex).Lock at one address, pod
pinned at 1000m CPU, identical Yaegi runCfg/reflect.Value.Call stack
pattern. The mutex was RefreshCoordinator.attemptsMutex.
Generalising: under Yaegi (interpreted Go for traefik plugins), any
per-request global mutex acquisition is a latent serialization point.
reflect.Value.Call dispatch on a held lock turns a microsecond
critical section into a multi-millisecond one, and on a GOMAXPROCS=1
pod the queue is unbounded.
This commit removes every per-request global mutex on the hot path:
1. RefreshCoordinator.attemptsMutex (sync.RWMutex)
sessionRefreshAttempts: map -> sync.Map.
refreshAttemptTracker: all fields atomic (int32, int64 UnixNano,
cooldownEndNano == 0 as the not-in-cooldown sentinel, replacing
the inCooldown bool).
isInCooldown / recordRefreshAttempt / recordRefreshSuccess /
recordRefreshFailure all become lock-free. Cooldown entry uses
CompareAndSwapInt64 so only one goroutine logs the transition.
2. RefreshCircuitBreaker.mutex (sync.RWMutex)
lastFailureTime / lastSuccessTime -> atomic.Int64 UnixNano.
state and failures already atomic.
AllowRequest / RecordSuccess / RecordFailure now pure atomic ops.
3. TraefikOidc.firstRequestMutex (sync.Mutex)
firstRequestReceived bool -> firstRequestStarted int32.
metadataRefreshStarted bool -> metadataRefreshStartedAtomic int32.
ServeHTTP bootstrap path uses CompareAndSwapInt32 — fires once,
zero steady-state cost. Previously the mutex was acquired on
every non-health request forever.
4. TraefikOidc.metadataRetryMutex (sync.Mutex)
lastMetadataRetryTime time.Time -> lastMetadataRetryNano int64.
The 30-second retry throttle is now a CAS on lastMetadataRetryNano.
cleanupStaleEntries iterates via sync.Map.Range; eviction is a
CompareAndDelete by pointer identity so a tracker freshly re-used by
a concurrent caller is not lost.
Empirical evidence (3 specialist-agent analysis of the v1.0.14 spike,
profiles in /tmp/traefik-spike-1779511683/):
* mutex profile: 97% delay in sync.(*Mutex).Unlock via
HTTPHandlerSwitcher -> accesslog -> metrics -> backoff.RetryNotify
* 65 stuck goroutines at one RWMutex address (0x40022eb648),
identical Yaegi CFG pointer, all on rc.attemptsMutex via
recordRefreshAttempt + isInCooldown
* traffic driver: long-lived in-cluster Go-http-client doing
~5.4 req/s POST embeddings via OIDC cookie session → same
sessionID → contention all funnels to one tracker entry
Yaegi support for sync/atomic confirmed at
github.com/traefik/[email protected].1/stdlib/go1_22_sync_atomic.go:
AddInt32/Int64, LoadInt32/Int64, StoreInt32/Int64,
CompareAndSwapInt32/Int64 all exposed via reflect.ValueOf. Yaegi
dispatches each call through reflect.Value.Call to the COMPILED
atomic.* function, which executes a single hardware CAS/LOCK-XADD
instruction. Each atomic op still pays Yaegi dispatch cost but
cannot block — no queueing, no death spiral.
Trade-off acknowledged: v1.0.15 issues ~6-8 atomic/sync.Map ops per
leader-path request vs the 4 mutex ops of v1.0.14. Under low
contention this is a modest CPU bump. Under high contention it's
an unbounded → bounded transformation. Net win.
All tests pass with -race; golangci-lint clean.
patch-release
The refresh path in token_manager.go hardcoded the "email" claim when
extracting the user identifier from a refreshed ID token, ignoring the
configured userIdentifierClaim. Keycloak users without an email claim
(using sub or another identifier) were kicked out on refresh even
though their initial login worked.
The callback path (auth_flow.go:226-239) already honored
userIdentifierClaim with "sub" fallback; PR #100 (commit a316a98)
added that support but missed the refresh path.
Mirror the callback logic in refreshToken so both paths behave the same.
Cleanup: rename Get/SetEmail to Get/SetUserIdentifier on SessionData
to match the actual semantics. The slot already stored the configured
identifier (email, sub, oid, upn, preferred_username), only the API
name was misleading. Storage key "email" → "user_identifier" and
combinedSessionPayload field E (json:"e") → Ui (json:"ui").
Compat note: existing user sessions invalidate on upgrade — every active
user re-authenticates once after deploying this change.
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
* Race condition on traefik pod startup

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
Fixes issues #64 and #86

* 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
* Refactoring code to fix the issues identified by the users.

* 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

JWT Token Security:
Protected against algorithm switching attacks by validating and whitelisting algorithms (RS256, RS384, RS512, PS256, PS384, PS512, ES256, ES384, ES512)
Added 2-minute clock skew tolerance for time-based validations
Added "not before" (nbf) claim validation with clock skew tolerance
Required JWT ID (jti) claim to prevent replay attacks
Added strict algorithm validation to prevent downgrade attacks
Session Management Security:
Implemented cryptographically secure random cookie names to prevent targeting
Added automatic session ID rotation after successful login to prevent session fixation
Enforced 24-hour absolute session timeout
Added strict encryption key length validation (minimum 32 bytes)
Added comprehensive session validation including timeout checks
Implemented session pooling for secure resource management
Added secure session cleanup on expiration
Configuration and URL Security:
Enforced HTTPS for all provider URLs and external endpoints
Added minimum rate limit (10 req/sec) to prevent DOS attacks
Added strict validation for excluded URLs:
Must start with "/"
No path traversal (..)
No wildcards (*)
Made ForceHTTPS true by default for secure cookies
Added validation for secure redirect URIs
Added validation for all OIDC endpoints (must be HTTPS)
Added secure defaults in configuration
Test Coverage:
Added comprehensive test cases verifying all security validations
Added test cases for HTTPS enforcement on all endpoints
Added test cases for minimum rate limits
Added test cases for secure session management
Added test cases for token validation with clock skew
Added test cases for secure configuration defaults
All security improvements have been verified through passing test cases, protecting against:
Session fixation attacks
Token replay attacks
Algorithm switching attacks
Path traversal attacks
Session hijacking
Timing attacks
DOS attacks
Man-in-the-middle attacks through enforced HTTPS
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
