When using s4u2proxy the only ticket we can access via direct krb5 calls is
the HTTP/ ticket which was saved in the ccache as evidence ticket.
This ticket is later used by GSSAPI as evidence to obtain an ldap ticket.
This works by chance, we shouldn't use calls to get_credentials just to
verify ticket expiration dates, but I realize this is a limitation of the
current krbV bindings and we have no other way around at the moment.
Checking the HTTP/ ticket will fail in case a krbtgt is fully delegated to
us. In that case the ccache will contain only a krbtgt, so as a fallback
we check that.
Checking the ldap/ ticket is never really useful. When s4u2proxy is used,
trying to check the ldap/ ticket will fail because we do not have it yet
on the first authentication before a session is estalished, and doing it
later is not useful.
When we have a krbtgt we could go and grap a ldap/ ticket directy, but
again that makes little sense. In general all tickets will have the same
expiration date (which deopends on the original krbtgt) so checking one
is sufficient.
Fixes: http://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2472
* Adjust URL's
- rename /ipa/login -> /ipa/session/login_kerberos
- add /ipa/session/login_password
* Adjust Kerberos protection on URL's in ipa.conf
* Bump VERSION in httpd ipa.conf to pick up session changes.
* Adjust login URL in ipa.js
* Add InvalidSessionPassword to errors.py
* Rename krblogin class to login_kerberos for consistency with
new login_password class
* Implement login_password.kinit() method which invokes
/usr/bin/kinit as a subprocess
* Add login_password class for WSGI dispatch, accepts POST
application/x-www-form-urlencoded user & password
parameters. We form the Kerberos principal from the server's
realm.
* Add function krb5_unparse_ccache()
* Refactor code to share common code
* Clean up use of ccache names, be consistent
* Replace read_krbccache_file(), store_krbccache_file(), delete_krbccache_file()
with load_ccache_data(), bind_ipa_ccache(), release_ipa_ccache().
bind_ipa_ccache() now sets environment KRB5CCNAME variable.
release_ipa_ccache() now clears environment KRB5CCNAME variable.
* ccache names should now support any ccache storage scheme,
not just FILE based ccaches
* Add utilies to return HTTP status from wsgi handlers,
use constants for HTTP status code for consistency.
Use utilies for returning from wsgi handlers rather than
duplicated code.
* Add KerberosSession.finalize_kerberos_acquisition() method
so different login handlers can share common code.
* add Requires: krb5-workstation to server (server now calls kinit)
* Fix test_rpcserver.py to use new dispatch inside route() method

Previously sessions expired after session_auth_duration had elapsed
commencing from the start of the session. We new support a "rolling"
expiration where the expiration is advanced by session_auth_duration
everytime the session is accessed, this is equivalent to a inactivity
timeout. The expiration is still constrained by the credential
expiration in all cases. The session expiration behavior is
configurable based on the session_auth_duration_type.
* Reduced the default session_auth_duration from 1 hour to 20 minutes.
* Replaced the sesssion write_timestamp with the access_timestamp and
update the access_timestamp whenever the session data is created,
retrieved, or written.
* Modify set_session_expiration_time to handle both an inactivity
timeout and a fixed duration.
* Introduce KerberosSession as a mixin class to share session
duration functionality with all classes manipulating session data
with Kerberos auth. This is both the non-RPC login class and the RPC
classes.
* Update make-lint to handle new classes.
* Added session_auth_duration_type config item.
* Updated default.conf.5 man page for new session_auth_duration_type item.
* Removed these unused config items: mount_xmlserver,
mount_jsonserver, webui_assets_dir
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2392
* Increase the session ID from 48 random bits to 128.
* Implement the sesison_logout RPC command. It permits the UI to send
a command that destroys the users credentials in the current
session.
* Restores the original web URL's and their authentication
protections. Adds a new URL for sessions /ipa/session/json. Restores
the original Kerberos auth which was for /ipa and everything
below. New /ipa/session/json URL is treated as an exception and
turns all authenticaion off. Similar to how /ipa/ui is handled.
* Refactor the RPC handlers in rpcserver.py such that there is one
handler per URL, specifically one handler per RPC and AuthMechanism
combination.
* Reworked how the URL names are used to map a URL to a
handler. Previously it only permitted one level in the URL path
hierarchy. We now dispatch on more that one URL path component.
* Renames the api.Backend.session object to wsgi_dispatch. The use of
the name session was historical and is now confusing since we've
implemented sessions in a different location than the
api.Backend.session object, which is really a WSGI dispatcher, hence
the new name wsgi_dispatch.
* Bullet-proof the setting of the KRB5CCNAME environment
variable. ldap2.connect already sets it via the create_context()
call but just in case that's not called or not called early enough
(we now have other things besides ldap which need the ccache) we
explicitly set it early as soon as we know it.
* Rework how we test for credential validity and expiration. The
previous code did not work with s4u2proxy because it assumed the
existance of a TGT. Now we first try ldap credentials and if we
can't find those fallback to the TGT. This logic was moved to the
KRB5_CCache object, it's an imperfect location for it but it's the
only location that makes sense at the moment given some of the
current code limitations. The new methods are KRB5_CCache.valid()
and KRB5_CCache.endtime().
* Add two new classes to session.py AuthManager and
SessionAuthManager. Their purpose is to emit authication events to
interested listeners. At the moment the logout event is the only
event, but the framework should support other events as they arise.
* Add BuildRequires python-memcached to freeipa.spec.in
* Removed the marshaled_dispatch method, it was cruft, no longer
referenced.

This patch adds a session manager and support for caching
authentication in the session. Major elements of the patch are:
* Add a session manager to support cookie based sessions which
stores session data in a memcached entry.
* Add ipalib/krb_utils.py which contains functions to parse ccache
names, format principals, format KRB timestamps, and a KRB_CCache
class which reads ccache entry and allows one to extract information
such as the principal, credentials, credential timestamps, etc.
* Move krb constants defined in ipalib/rpc.py to ipa_krb_utils.py so
that all kerberos items are co-located.
* Modify javascript in ipa.js so that the IPA.command() RPC call
checks for authentication needed error response and if it receives
it sends a GET request to /ipa/login URL to refresh credentials.
* Add session_auth_duration config item to constants.py, used to
configure how long a session remains valid.
* Add parse_time_duration utility to ipalib/util.py. Used to parse the
session_auth_duration config item.
* Update the default.conf.5 man page to document session_auth_duration
config item (also added documentation for log_manager config items
which had been inadvertantly omitted from a previous commit).
* Add SessionError object to ipalib/errors.py
* Move Kerberos protection in Apache config from /ipa to /ipa/xml and
/ipa/login
* Add SessionCCache class to session.py to manage temporary Kerberos
ccache file in effect for the duration of an RPC command.
* Adds a krblogin plugin used to implement the /ipa/login
handler. login handler sets the session expiration time, currently
60 minutes or the expiration of the TGT, whichever is shorter. It
also copies the ccache provied by mod_auth_kerb into the session
data. The json handler will later extract and validate the ccache
belonging to the session.
* Refactored the WSGI handlers so that json and xlmrpc could have
independent behavior, this also moves where create and destroy
context occurs, now done in the individual handler rather than the
parent class.
* The json handler now looks up the session data, validates the ccache
bound to the session, if it's expired replies with authenicated
needed error.
* Add documentation to session.py. Fully documents the entire process,
got questions, read the doc.
* Add exclusions to make-lint as needed.
