feat: Managed bypass tokens - #309
Conversation
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Pull request overview
Adds an admin-managed “bypass token” mechanism that can selectively bypass Turnstile and/or rate limiting, tracks per-user usage for leak-defense, and optionally auto-cleans up accounts created/used via bypass tokens.
Changes:
- Introduce new bypass-token data model + EF migration (tokens, per-user use tracking, enum types).
- Add middleware + services to resolve
X-OpenShock-Bypass-Tokenonce per request and allow synchronous downstream checks (rate limiting / Turnstile). - Add admin endpoints for managing bypass tokens and a cron job to delete eligible bypass-token-used accounts after a grace period.

…s-tokens # Conflicts: # Common/OpenShockMiddlewareHelper.cs
develop moved the Turnstile verification out of LoginV2 into _Turnstile.cs and dropped the OpenShock.API.Errors using along with it, but this branch's admin bypass guard still references TurnstileError. RoleType also moved into the OpenShock.Common.OpenShockDb namespace with the Internal.Net extraction.

PasswordResetInitiateV2 had no privileged-account guard, so the turnstile bypass could send admin reset mail with no captcha and no rate limit. The lookup runs only on the bypass path and still returns the generic 200. BypassTokenMiddleware now logs accepted and unmatched tokens, never the token.

Include System accounts in bypass restrictions.
The application treats Admin and System as privileged, but every new bypass restriction checks only RoleType.Admin. A System account can therefore use Turnstile bypass during login, password-reset initiation, or token reporting.

Bound work for invalid bypass headers.
Any caller can send this header with an arbitrary value. Each attempt performs two configuration-service calls and emits a warning before UseRateLimiter runs. An attacker can therefore create unbounded configuration work and warning-log volume without possessing a bypass token.
Cache the active bypass secrets outside the request path. Sample or rate-limit unmatched-token events, while retaining a bounded audit signal.
