mod_pubsub_post: Restructure authentication and authorization (BC)
This deprecates the default "superuser" actor model and makes the
default equivalent to the previous "request.id".
A single actor and secret per node is supported because HTTP and
WebHooks don't normally include any authorization identity.
Allowing authentication bypass when no secret is given should be
relatively safe when the actor is unprivileged, as will be unless
explicitly configured otherwise.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Beta' summary: 'Mark some network interfaces (e.g. loopback/LAN) as always secure' ... Introduction ============ Sometimes you might run clients without encryption on the same machine or LAN as Prosody - and you want Prosody to treat them as secure (e.g. allowing plaintext authentication) even though they are not encrypted. This module allows you to tell Prosody which of the current server's interfaces (IP addresses) that you consider to be on secure networks. Configuration ============= Configuration is simple, just load the module like any other by adding it to your modules\_enabled list: modules_enabled = { ... "secure_interfaces"; ... } Then set the list of secure interfaces (just make sure it is set in the global section of your config file, and **not** under a VirtualHost or Component): secure_interfaces = { "127.0.0.1", "::1", "192.168.1.54" } Compatibility ============= ------- --------- 0.9 Works 0.8 Unknown trunk Works ------- ---------
