This is to allow the use of binary LDAP entry attributes as the UID.
For example, a user might like to configure AD’s objectGUID or maybe
objectSid attributes as the UID attribute.
This negatively impacts the readability of the UID when it did not come
from a binary value, but we're considering this an okay trade-off to
keep things simple for now. In the future, we may offer more
customizable encoding options for binary attributes.
These UIDs are currently only used in the downstream OIDC `sub` claim.
They do not effect the user's identity on the Kubernetes cluster,
which is only based on their mapped username and group memberships from
the upstream identity provider. We are not currently supporting any
special encoding for those username and group name LDAP attributes, so
their values in the LDAP entry must be ASCII or UTF-8 in order for them
to be interpreted correctly.
- Automatically try to fall back to using StartTLS when using TLS
doesn't work. Only complain when both don't work.
- Remember (in-memory) which one worked and keeping using that one
in the future (unless the pod restarts).
- This enhances our LDAP client code to make it possible to optionally
dial an LDAP server without TLS and then use StartTLS to upgrade
the connection to TLS.
- The controller for LDAPIdentityProviders is not using this option
yet. That will come in a future commit.
Reflect the upstream group membership into the Supervisor's
downstream tokens, so they can be added to the user's
identity on the workload clusters.
LDAP group search is configurable on the
LDAPIdentityProvider resource.
- Make PINNIPED_TEST_LDAP_LDAPS_CA_BUNDLE optional for integration tests
- When there is no CA bundle provided, be careful to use nil instead of
an empty bundle, because nil means to use the OS defaults
Also force the LDAP server pod to restart whenever the LDIF file
changes, so whenever you redeploy the tools deployment with a new test
user password the server will be updated.
- Bad usernames and passwords aren't really errors, since they are
based on end-user input.
- Other kinds of authentication failures are caused by bad configuration
so still treat those as errors.
- Empty usernames and passwords are already prevented by our endpoint
handler, but just to be safe make sure they cause errors inside the
authenticator too.
- The unit tests for upstreamldap.Provider need to mock the LDAP server,
so add an integration test which allows us to get fast feedback for
this code against a real LDAP server.
- Automatically wrap the user search filter in parenthesis if it is not
already wrapped in parens.
- More special handling for using "dn" as the username or UID attribute
name.
- Also added some more comments to types_ldapidentityprovider.go.tmpl
