In the absence of an opt-in to multiple specific languages in the

* Move ActivityPub::FetchRemoteAccountService to ActivityPub::FetchRemoteActorService
ActivityPub::FetchRemoteAccountService is kept as a wrapper for when the actor is
specifically required to be an Account

ActivityPub::FetchRemoteAccountService#call (default/previous behavior).
* Rework how “ActivityPub::FetchRemoteKeyService” handles errors

* Fix Webfinger::RedirectError not being a subclass of Webfinger::Error
* Add suppress_errors option to ResolveAccountService
Defaults to true (to preserve previous behavior). If set to false,

informed of what went wrong.
* Return more precise error when failing to fetch account signing AP payloads

* Add tests
The constraint was applied prior to decoding, and rejected anything containing
the '%' character, which would be used for anything with non-ASCII unicode
characters.
* Add model for custom filter keywords
* Use CustomFilterKeyword internally
Does not change the API
* Fix /filters/edit and /filters/new
* Add migration tests
* Remove whole_word column from custom_filters (covered by custom_filter_keywords)
* Redesign /filters
Instead of a list, present a card that displays more information and handles
multiple keywords per filter.
* Redesign /filters/new and /filters/edit to add and remove keywords
This adds a new gem dependency: cocoon, as well as a npm dependency:
cocoon-js-vanilla. Those are used to easily populate and remove form fields
from the user interface when manipulating multiple keyword filters at once.
* Add /api/v2/filters to edit filter with multiple keywords
Entities:
- `Filter`: `id`, `title`, `filter_action` (either `hide` or `warn`), `context`
`keywords`
- `FilterKeyword`: `id`, `keyword`, `whole_word`
API endpoits:
- `GET /api/v2/filters` to list filters (including keywords)
- `POST /api/v2/filters` to create a new filter
`keywords_attributes` can also be passed to create keywords in one request
- `GET /api/v2/filters/:id` to read a particular filter
- `PUT /api/v2/filters/:id` to update a new filter
`keywords_attributes` can also be passed to edit, delete or add keywords in
one request
- `DELETE /api/v2/filters/:id` to delete a particular filter
- `GET /api/v2/filters/:id/keywords` to list keywords for a filter
- `POST /api/v2/filters/:filter_id/keywords/:id` to add a new keyword to a
filter
- `GET /api/v2/filter_keywords/:id` to read a particular keyword
- `PUT /api/v2/filter_keywords/:id` to edit a particular keyword
- `DELETE /api/v2/filter_keywords/:id` to delete a particular keyword
* Change from `irreversible` boolean to `action` enum
* Remove irrelevent `irreversible_must_be_within_context` check
* Fix /filters/new and /filters/edit with update for filter_action
* Fix Rubocop/Codeclimate complaining about task names
* Refactor FeedManager#phrase_filtered?
This moves regexp building and filter caching to the `CustomFilter` class.
This does not change the functional behavior yet, but this changes how the
cache is built, doing per-custom_filter regexps so that filters can be matched
independently, while still offering caching.
* Perform server-side filtering and output result in REST API
* Fix numerous filters_changed events being sent when editing multiple keywords at once
* Add some tests
* Use the new API in the WebUI
- use client-side logic for filters we have fetched rules for.
This is so that filter changes can be retroactively applied without
reloading the UI.
- use server-side logic for filters we haven't fetched rules for yet
(e.g. network error, or initial timeline loading)
* Minor optimizations and refactoring
* Perform server-side filtering on the streaming server
* Change the wording of filter action labels
* Fix issues pointed out by linter
* Change design of “Show anyway” link in accordence to review comments
* Drop “irreversible” filtering behavior
* Move /api/v2/filter_keywords to /api/v1/filters/keywords
* Rename `filter_results` attribute to `filtered`
* Rename REST::LegacyFilterSerializer to REST::V1::FilterSerializer
* Fix systemChannelId value in streaming server
* Simplify code by removing client-side filtering code
The simplifcation comes at a cost though: filters aren't retroactively
applied anymore.
- `GET /api/v1/admin/domain_allows` lists allowed domains
- `GET /api/v1/admin/domain_allows/:id` shows one by ID
- `DELETE /api/v1/admin/domain_allows/:id` deletes a given domain from the list
of allowed domains
- `POST /api/v1/admin/domain_allows` to allow a new domain:
if that domain is already allowed, the existing DomainAllow will be returned
* Add /api/v1/admin/domain_blocks
Fixes#18140
- `GET /api/v1/admin/domain_blocks` lists domain blocks
- `GET /api/v1/admin/domain_blocks/:id` shows one by ID
- `DELETE /api/v1/admin/domain_blocks/:id` deletes a given domain block
- `POST /api/v1/admin/domain_blocks` to create a new domain block:
if it conflicts with an existing one, returns an error with
an attribute `existing_domain_block` with the rendered domain block
* Simplify conflict handling as suggested in review
* Change unapproved and unconfirmed account to not be accessible in the REST API
* Change Account#searchable? to reject unconfirmed and unapproved users
* Disable search for unapproved and unconfirmed users in Account.search_for
* Disable search for unapproved and unconfirmed users in Account.advanced_search_for
* Remove unconfirmed and unapproved accounts from Account.searchable scope
* Prevent mentions to unapproved/unconfirmed accounts
* Fix some old tests for Account.advanced_search_for
* Add some Account.advanced_search_for tests for existing behaviors
* Add some tests for Account.search_for
* Add Account.advanced_search_for tests unconfirmed and unapproved accounts
* Add Account.searchable tests
* Fix Account.without_unapproved scope potentially messing with previously-applied scopes
* Allow lookup of unconfirmed/unapproved accounts through /api/v1/accounts/lookup
This is so that the API can still be used to check whether an username is free
to use.
* Change RSS feeds
- Use date and time for titles instead of ellipsized text
- Use full content in body, even when there is a content warning
- Use media extensions
* Change feed icons and add width and height attributes to custom emojis
* Fix custom emoji animate on hover breaking
* Fix tests
* Fix error responses in `from` search prefix (addresses mastodon/mastodon#17941)
Using unsupported prefixes now reports a 422; searching for posts from an
account the instance is not aware of reports a 404. TODO: The UI for this
on the front end is abysmal.
Searching `from:username@domain` now succeeds when `domain` is the local
domain; searching `from:@username(@domain)?` now works as expected.
* Remove unused methods on new Error classes as they are not being used
Currently when `raise`d there are error messages being supplied, but
this is not actually being used. The associated `raise`s have been
edited accordingly.
* Remove needless comments
* Satisfy rubocop
* Try fixing tests being unable to find AccountFindingConcern methods
* Satisfy rubocop
* Simplify `from` prefix logic
This incorporates @ClearlyClaire's suggestion (see
https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/17963#pullrequestreview-933986737).
Accepctable account strings in `from:` clauses are more lenient than
before this commit; for example, `from:@user@example.org@asnteo +cat`
will not error, and return posts by @user@example.org containing the
word "cat". This is more consistent with how Mastodon matches mentions
in statuses. In addition, `from` clauses will not be checked for
syntatically invalid usernames or domain names, simply 404ing when
`Account.find_remote!` raises ActiveRecord::NotFound.
New code for this PR that is no longer used has been removed.
* Change e-mail notifications to only be sent when recipient is offline
Change the default for follow and mention notifications back on
* Add preference to always send e-mail notifications
* Change wording

Since #17204, the admin API has only been available through the web
application because of the unconditional requirement to provide a valid CSRF
token.
This commit changes it back to `null_session`, which should make it work
both with session-based authentication (provided a CSRF token) and with a
bearer token.
* Fix /api/v1/admin/accounts
Compatibility was broken since #17009 which changed the underlying filter class
without changing the controller.
This commits restore support for the old parameters.
* Add /api/v2/admin/accounts with the new parameters
* Add tests
* Add missing filter for `silenced` status

* Change old moderation strikes to be displayed in a separate page
Fixes#17552
This changes the moderation strikes displayed on `/auth/edit` to be those from
the past 3 months, and make all moderation strikes targeting the current user

* Move link to list of strikes to “Account status” instead of navigation item
* Normalize i18n file

* Fix change of multiple-choice boolean in poll not resetting votes
* Remove the ability to update existing media attachments for now
* Fix Sidekiq warnings about JSON serialization
This occurs on every symbol argument we pass, and every symbol key in hashes,
because Sidekiq expects strings instead.
See https://github.com/mperham/sidekiq/pull/5071
We do not need to change how workers parse their arguments because this has
not changed and we were already converting to symbols adequately or using
`with_indifferent_access`.
* Set Sidekiq to raise on unsafe arguments in test mode
In order to more easily catch issues that would produce warnings in production
code.
* Remove support for OAUTH_REDIRECT_AT_SIGN_IN
Fixes#15959
Introduced in #6540, OAUTH_REDIRECT_AT_SIGN_IN allowed skipping the log-in form
to instead redirect to the external OmniAuth login provider.
However, it did not prevent the log-in form on /about introduced by #10232 from
appearing, and completely broke with the introduction of #15228.
As I restoring that previous log-in flow without introducing a security
vulnerability may require extensive care and knowledge of how OmniAuth works,
this commit removes support for OAUTH_REDIRECT_AT_SIGN_IN instead for the time
being.
* Add OMNIAUTH_ONLY environment variable to enforce external log-in only
* Disable user registration when OMNIAUTH_ONLY is set to true
* Replace log-in links When OMNIAUTH_ONLY is set with exactly one OmniAuth provider

Up until now, we have used Devise's Rememberable mechanism to re-log users
after the end of their browser sessions. This mechanism relies on a signed
cookie containing a token. That token was stored on the user's record,
meaning it was shared across all logged in browsers, meaning truly revoking
a browser's ability to auto-log-in involves revoking the token itself, and
revoking access from *all* logged-in browsers.
We had a session mechanism that dynamically checks whether a user's session
has been disabled, and would log out the user if so. However, this would only
clear a session being actively used, and a new one could be respawned with
the `remember_user_token` cookie.
In practice, this caused two issues:
- sessions could be revived after being closed from /auth/edit (security issue)
- auto-log-in would be disabled for *all* browsers after logging out from one
of them
This PR removes the `remember_token` mechanism and treats the `_session_id`
cookie/token as a browser-specific `remember_token`, fixing both issues.

* Add account statuses cleanup policy model
* Record last inspected toot to delete to speed up successive calls to statuses_to_delete
* Add service to cleanup a given account's statuses within a budget
* Add worker to go through account policies and delete old toots
* Fix last inspected status id logic
All existing statuses older or equal to last inspected status id must be
kept by the current policy. This is an invariant that must be kept so that
resuming deletion from the last inspected status remains sound.
* Add tests
* Refactor scheduler and add tests
* Add user interface

* Fix anonymous access to outbox not being cached by the reverse proxy
Up until now, anonymous access to outbox was marked as public, but with a
0 duration for caching, which means remote proxies would only serve from cache
when the server was completely overwhelmed.
Changed that cache duration to one minute, so that repeated anonymous access
to one account's outbox can be appropriately cached.
Also added `Signature` to the `Vary` header in case a page is requested, so
that authenticated fetches are never served from cache (which only contains
public toots).
* Remove Vary: Accept header from webfinger controller
Indeed, we have stopped returning xrd, and only ever return jrd, so the
Accept request header does not matter anymore.
* Cache negative webfinger hits for 3 minutes
* Add tests
* Fix serialization of followers/following counts when user hides their network
Fixes#16382

Clicking the confirmation link multiple times currently leads to entering

* Fix fixture_file_upload deprecation warning
* Fix yield-based test failing with Rails 6
* Use Rails 6's index_with when possible
* Use ActiveRecord::Cache::Store#delete_multi from Rails 6
This will yield better performances when deleting an account
* Disable Rails 6.1's automatic preload link headers
Since Rails 6.1, ActionView adds preload links for javascript files
in the Links header per default.
In our case, that will bloat headers too much and potentially cause
issues with reverse proxies. Furhermore, we don't need those links,
as we already output them as HTML link tags.
* Switch to Rails 6.0 default config
* Switch to Rails 6.1 default config
* Do not include autoload paths in the load path
* Use ActiveRecord::Result#to_ary instead of deprecated to_hash
They do the same thing, and to_hash has been removed from Rails 6.1
* Explicitly name polymorphic indexes to workaround a bug in Rails 6.1
cf. https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/41693
* Fix incorrect usage of “foreign_key” in migration script
* Use `ActiveModel::Errors#delete` instead of deprecated clear method
* Fix link headers tests on Rails 6.1
Rails 6.1 adds values to the Link header by default, thus it is not a
LinkHeader object anymore. Fix the test to parse the Link header instead
of assuming it is a LinkHeader.
* Fix crash on receiving requests with missing Digest header
Return an error pointing out that Digest is missing, instead of crashing.
Fixes#15743
* Fix from review feedback
An uncommon but somewhat difficult to digagnose issue is dealing with
improperly-seeded databases. In such cases, instance-signed fetches will
fail with a ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound error, usually caught and handled
as generic 404, leading people to think the remote resource itself has not
been found, while it's the local instance actor that does not exist.
This commit changes the code so that failure to find the instance actor
automatically creates a new one, so that improperly-seeded databases do
not cause any issue.
This also skips fetching the actor completely.
This will be useful if we end up distributing Update activities linked to
account suspensions more widely (they are currently only delivered to
the suspended account's followers), as currently, instances not knowing
about the suspended account would fetch it to then process the suspension.

* Add honeypot fields to limit non-specialized spam
Add two honeypot fields: a fake website input and a fake password confirmation
one. The label/placeholder/aria-label tells not to fill them, and they are
hidden in CSS, so legitimate users should not fall into these.
This should cut down on some non-Mastodon-specific spambots.
* Require a 3 seconds delay before submitting the registration form
* Fix tests
* Move registration form time check to model validation
* Give people a chance to clear the honeypot fields

If someone tries logging in to an account and is prompted for a 2FA
code or sign-in token, even if the account's password or e-mail is
updated in the meantime, the session will show the prompt and allow
the login process to complete with a valid 2FA code or sign-in token
* Add more specific error message when request body digest is invalid
This may help other implementors debug their implementation.
* Relax Host parameter requirement to GET requests
The only POST requests processed by Mastodon need objects/actors (including
their host) to be explicitly mentioned in the request's body, so replaying
a legitimate request to another host should not be a security issue.
* Support Digest headers using multiple algorithms or lowercase alogirthm names
* Add support for followers synchronization on the receiving end
Check the `collectionSynchronization` attribute on `Create` and `Announce`
activities and synchronize followers from provided collection if possible.
* Add tests for followers synchronization on the receiving end
* Add support for follower synchronization on the sender's end
* Add tests for the sending end
* Switch from AS attributes to HTTP header
Replace the custom `collectionSynchronization` ActivityStreams attribute by
an HTTP header (`X-AS-Collection-Synchronization`) with the same syntax as
the `Signature` header and the following fields:
- `collectionId` to specify which collection to synchronize
- `digest` for the SHA256 hex-digest of the list of followers known on the
receiving instance (where “receiving instance” is determined by accounts
sharing the same host name for their ActivityPub actor `id`)
- `url` of a collection that should be fetched by the instance actor
Internally, move away from the webfinger-based `domain` attribute and use
account `uri` prefix to group accounts.
* Add environment variable to disable followers synchronization
Since the whole mechanism relies on some new preconditions that, in some
extremely rare cases, might not be met, add an environment variable
(DISABLE_FOLLOWERS_SYNCHRONIZATION) to disable the mechanism altogether and
avoid followers being incorrectly removed.
The current conditions are:
1. all managed accounts' actor `id` and inbox URL have the same URI scheme and
netloc.
2. all accounts whose actor `id` or inbox URL share the same URI scheme and
netloc as a managed account must be managed by the same Mastodon instance
as well.
As far as Mastodon is concerned, breaking those preconditions require extensive
configuration changes in the reverse proxy and might also cause other issues.
Therefore, this environment variable provides a way out for people with highly
unusual configurations, and can be safely ignored for the overwhelming majority
of Mastodon administrators.
* Only set follower synchronization header on non-public statuses
This is to avoid unnecessary computations and allow Follow-related
activities to be handled by the usual codepath instead of going through
the synchronization mechanism (otherwise, any Follow/Undo/Accept activity
would trigger the synchronization mechanism even if processing the activity
itself would be enough to re-introduce synchronization)
* Change how ActivityPub::SynchronizeFollowersService handles follow requests
If the remote lists a local follower which we only know has sent a follow
request, consider the follow request as accepted instead of sending an Undo.
* Integrate review feeback
- rename X-AS-Collection-Synchronization to Collection-Synchronization
- various minor refactoring and code style changes
* Only select required fields when computing followers_hash
* Use actor URI rather than webfinger domain in synchronization endpoint
* Change hash computation to be a XOR of individual hashes
Makes it much easier to be memory-efficient, and avoid sorting discrepancy issues.
* Marginally improve followers_hash computation speed
* Further improve hash computation performances by using pluck_each
