    • permission-filter-include-unit:{unitName}

IMSG: 17.8.3

  • Upgrade internal dependencies

IMSG: 17.8.2

2022-06-28

Access Token: 2.4.0

  • Wildcard unit scope puts permissions into units if not allowed in org
Consider the following permissions:
{
org: []
units: {
unit1: [
writer:access
dashboard:access
],
unit2: [
writer:access
],
unit3: [
dashboard:access
]
}
}
Before this update, requesting a token with scope permission:*:writer:access would result in an error since writer:access is not present in the org permissions.
Now, requesting the same scope will result in the following permissions:
{
org: []
units: {
unit1: [
writer:access
],
unit2: [
writer:access
],
unit3: []
}
}

Access Token: 2.3.0

2022-04-28
  • Cache private keys to avoid exceeding SSM limit

IMSG: 17.8.0

2022-03-28
  • Default to less strict validation of cookie payload
Hapi, the web server framework used by IMSG, defaults to a strict validation of cookies according to rfc6265 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6265). This includes not allowing raw JSON as the cookie value. With this change, a less strict validation of cookies will be the default behaviour.
This will solve issues caused by other services setting cookies on infomaker.io or navigacloud.com that do not adhere to rfc6265. The less strict validation is the default behaviour of most other servers as well as all major browsers.
Environment variable changes
This can be overridden by setting env variable STRICT_COOKIE_MODE to true.

IMSG: 17.7.1

  • For access tokens, use the permissions claim in the token instead of resolving permissions based on groups
There are two different kind of tokens in Naviga ID that can be used to access services behind an IMSG reverse proxy.
When you log in to CCT in the browser, an ID token (sometimes called session token) is stored as a cookie in your browser. This token does not hold any permissions. Instead, the groups that you belong to are stored in the token. When you access a CCT service, the IMSG will translate the groups into permissions (based on the current latest organization configuration). The permissions are then forwarded to the service.
The second type of token is access tokens. Access-tokens are fetched from the access token service using either an ID-token or client credentials. When an access token is created, it is populated with the resolved permissions from the start. Hence there’s no need for IMSG to try to resolve them again.
Up until this release, IMSG ignored any permission claim the access tokens and only used the list of groups to resolve the permissions. With this change in place, IMSG will always use the permissions claim in access tokens and forward those permissions to the service.

  • Bugfix: validate IMSG service callback against correct cookie domain when using full URL in service callback

IMSG: 17.5.0

2021-01-29
Support for allowing any headers during CORS requests
IMSG can now allow any headers in CORS requests. Enabling this feature reflect the value of access-control-request-headers into the response access-control-allow-headers. Use with care.
Environment variable changes
CORS_ALLOW_ANY_HEADERS has been added. Set to true to enable.

IMSG: 17.4.0

2021-01-20
Support for multiple domains
IMSG can now serve and set cookies on multiple domains. To enable multiple domains, set the IMID_COOKIE_DOMAINS environment variable to the domains you want to access IMSG on.
ex. IMID_COOKIE_DOMAINS="infomaker.io, navigacloud.com"
Environment variable changes
IMID_COOKIE_DOMAIN has changed name to IMID_COOKIE_DOMAINS and changed type from sting to CSV. The legacy name will continue to be supported.

IMSG: 17.3.0

2020-12-17
Legacy mode feature flag for units
IMSG now supports a legacy mode where only units with explicit permission mappings are included in the service token. This is required for the current version of the unit-selector (in writer and dashboard) to function properly. To enable legacy mode, set the "short-and-to-the-point" env variable LEGACY_MODE_ONLY_INCLUDE_UNITS_WITH_EXPLICITLY_MAPPED_PERMISSIONS_IN_SERVICE_TOKEN to true.
Security fix
The redirect option in the /callback endpoint now only accepts full URLs if the URL is hosted under the cookie domain env variable (infomaker.io or navigacloud.com)
Preparations for improved refresh flow
IMSG now supports the rta (refresh token after) claim which soon will be included in all ID-tokens (browser cookie tokens). The rta claim is the future way to centrally control when refresh is to be performed. Refresh backoff support. In certain situations when an IMSG is unable to refresh a token after rta has passed, or if IMAS responds with a 429 status code during refresh, IMSG will backoff and not try to refresh the token for a given time period. The other parts of the new refresh flow is implemented in IMAS and will be deployed starting January 2021. The changes will be rolled out in three steps, as described below.
  1. 1.
    The ID-token's exp (expiry) claim will be increased to several days (from today's 1h). This means that as long as the user is logged in to Naviga ID, they will continue to be so even if their organization's IdProvider goes down. This would for example have minimized the impact of Google's outage the other day quite a bit.
  2. 2.
    Refresh of ID-tokens will be limited to once per token. This is the current expected behavior, so there won't be any impacts for users in all normal scenarios. However, in the event that an ID-token is stolen from a user, we can identify that if more than one refresh is triggered. In the initial roll out, the only action taken is to log and alarm. When we are confident we have no false-positives, we'll deploy step 3.
  3. 3.
    If a token is used for refresh more than once, we will invalidate all issued tokens for that user. This will lead to both the legitimate user and the intruder to be logged out from Naviga ID. The legitimate user will be able log in again while the intruder no longer has access.
