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-Stable' summary: Automatically reload modules with the config ... Introduction ------------ By default Prosody does not reload modules at runtime unless instructed to via one of its admin interfaces. However sometimes you want to easily reload a module to apply new settings when the config changes. mod\_reload\_modules will reload a set list of modules every time Prosody reloads its config (e.g. on SIGHUP). Configuration ------------- Add "reload\_modules" to modules\_enabled. Then the list of modules to reload using the 'reload\_modules' option in your config like so: reload_modules = { "groups", "tls" } This would reload mod\_groups and mod\_tls whenever the config is reloaded. Note that on many systems this will be at least daily, due to logrotate. Compatibility ------------- ----- ------- 0.9 Works ----- -------
