调研方向

Start in chttpd:set_auth_handlers/0 and the authentication_handler_map/1 clauses, where unknown {Module, Function} entries fall through to false, and compare with chttpd_auth:jwt_authentication_handler/1 and couch_httpd_auth:jwt_authentication_handler/1 from 3.5.2. Pull request #6152 introduced the whitelist. Done means either the configured {couch_httpd_auth, jwt_authentication_handler} tuple authenticates Bearer tokens again, or each ignored entry logs a warning at startup. Agree with the maintainers on which of these to do first.

描述

Description

After upgrading from 3.5.2 to 3.5.3, JWT authentication stopped working and all Bearer-token requests returned 401. Basic auth kept working.

Our [chttpd] config:

[chttpd]
authentication_handlers = {couch_httpd_auth, jwt_authentication_handler}, {chttpd_auth, default_authentication_handler}
require_valid_user = true

#6152 changed chttpd:set_auth_handlers/0 to map entries through a fixed whitelist. Only the short names and the {chttpd_auth, ...} tuples are accepted. Any other entry falls through to authentication_handler_map(_) -> false and is dropped without a log message.

In 3.5.2, chttpd_auth:jwt_authentication_handler/1 just delegates to couch_httpd_auth:jwt_authentication_handler/1, and both were exported. The configured tuple was valid and worked. The PR states that "for compatibility we still accept existing tuple forms", but this functionally equivalent tuple is no longer accepted, in a patch release.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Run CouchDB 3.5.3 with the config above and a valid [jwt_keys] / [jwt_auth] setup.
  2. curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <valid token>" http://localhost:5984/_session
  3. The response is a 401 (or "authenticated" is not "jwt"). The same request works on 3.5.2.
  4. GET /_node/_local/_config/chttpd/authentication_handlers still shows the configured value, and nothing in the log shows that the JWT handler was dropped.
Expected Behaviour
  • Either keep accepting previously working tuples (for example by falling back to the old make_arity_1_fun behaviour for unknown {Module, Function} entries),
  • or at least log a warning or error at startup for each ignored entry, so a misconfiguration is visible instead of silently disabling an authentication method.
Workaround

Change the entry to {chttpd_auth, jwt_authentication_handler} or jwt.

Environment
  • CouchDB version used: 3.5.3 (official Docker image, tag couchdb:3.5)
  • Operating system and version: Linux (Docker)
