mod_http_oauth2: Implement stateless dynamic client registration
Replaces previous explicit registration that required either the
additional module mod_adhoc_oauth2_client or manually editing the
database. That method was enough to have something to test with, but
would not probably not scale easily.
Dynamic client registration allows creating clients on the fly, which
may be even easier in theory.
In order to not allow basically unauthenticated writes to the database,
we implement a stateless model here.
per_host_key := HMAC(config -> oauth2_registration_key, hostname)
client_id := JWT { client metadata } signed with per_host_key
client_secret := HMAC(per_host_key, client_id)
This should ensure everything we need to know is part of the client_id,
allowing redirects etc to be validated, and the client_secret can be
validated with only the client_id and the per_host_key.
A nonce injected into the client_id JWT should ensure nobody can submit
the same client metadata and retrieve the same client_secret

--- labels: - 'Stage-Beta' summary: Web administration interface rockspec: build: platforms: unix: type: command build_command: cd admin_web; sh get_deps.sh install_command: | cd admin_web; cp mod_admin_web.lua $(LUADIR); cp -r www_files $(PREFIX); ... Introduction ============ This module provides a basic web administration interface. It currently gives you access to Ad-Hoc commands on any virtual host or component that you are set as an administrator for in the Prosody config file. It also provides a live list of all S2S and C2S connections. Installation ============ 1. Copy the admin\_web directory into a directory Prosody will check for plugins. (cf. [Installing modules](http://prosody.im/doc/installing_modules)) 2. Execute the contained `get_deps.sh` script from within the admin\_web directory. (Requires wget, tar, and a basic shell) Configuration Details ===================== "admin\_web" needs to be added to the modules\_enabled table of the host you want to load this module on. By default the interface will then be reachable under `http://example.com:5280/admin`, or `https://example.com:5281/admin`. The module will automatically enable two other modules if they aren't already: mod\_bosh (used to connect to the server from the web), and mod\_admin\_adhoc (which provides admin commands over XMPP). VirtualHost "example.com" modules_enabled = { ..... "admin_web"; ..... } Compatibility ============= --------- --------------- trunk Works 0.9 Works \<= 0.8 Not supported --------- ---------------
