Fixed two IDOR vulnerabilities allowing authenticated users to access metadata of any tenant namespace without proper authorization. Changes: - Added hasAccessToNamespace() for efficient single-namespace access checks - Get() now verifies access before returning namespace metadata - Watch() filters events per-namespace with proper authorization - Returns NotFound (not Forbidden) to prevent tenant enumeration Performance optimization: - hasAccessToNamespace() lists RoleBindings only in target namespace instead of listing all cluster RoleBindings (order of magnitude faster) - Watch handler logs authorization errors for security audit Additional fixes: - Handle ServiceAccount subjects with empty namespace correctly - Add klog error logging for failed authorization checks Signed-off-by: IvanHunters <[email protected]> (cherry picked from commit 64a3edf)
Added comprehensive unit tests for authorization logic: - hasAccessToNamespace() tests: - User subject access (positive and negative cases) - Group subject access - ServiceAccount subject access - ServiceAccount with empty namespace (defaults to RoleBinding ns) - Privileged groups (system:masters, cozystack-cluster-admin) - Get() handler tests: - Returns namespace when user has access - Returns NotFound when user lacks access (not Forbidden) - Returns NotFound for non-tenant namespaces All tests verify that authorization correctly enforces RoleBinding-based access control and prevents IDOR vulnerabilities. Signed-off-by: IvanHunters <[email protected]> (cherry picked from commit 5b2501d)
Address review feedback from sircthulhu and CodeRabbit: 1. Return Forbidden instead of NotFound for unauthorized access - Get() now returns 403 Forbidden to follow standard K8s RBAC behavior - Previously returned 404 NotFound for security-by-obscurity - Updated test expectations to match new behavior 2. Propagate field and label selectors in Watch handler - Pass opts.FieldSelector and opts.LabelSelector to upstream Watch - Add defensive filtering before authorization to prevent RBAC bypass - Fixes potential issue with resourceNames restrictions 3. Refactor subject-matching logic to eliminate duplication - Extract matchesSubject() helper for Group/User/ServiceAccount checks - Remove duplicated code from filterAccessible and hasAccessToNamespace - Consolidates ServiceAccount namespace fallback logic All tests pass successfully. Signed-off-by: IvanHunters <[email protected]> (cherry picked from commit 7257b6a)
- Hoist user identity extraction out of the Watch goroutine; reuse a cached username and groups map across events instead of re-fetching them per event. Watch now returns Unauthorized up front when no user is present in the context, rather than failing silently per event. - Switch the per-event access-check error log to structured klog.ErrorS to comply with the project Go style guide. - Strengthen TestGet_WithAccess to assert the concrete *TenantNamespace type plus Name, Kind, and APIVersion, so type or metadata regressions fail fast.
