and verifying user permissions, but there are several above-the-bar
changes:
1) Server add is now only available to admins. This is a hard
requirement because we have to limit server access (eg:
server_add::children) to a user subset and the current permission
model doesn't include that. Easiest fix is to restrict to admins.
Got rid of the server_add permission.
2) We now know check permissions at every level, which means in
controllers AND in helpers. This "belt and suspenders" approach will
give us defense in depth in case we overlook it in one area.
3) We now do CSRF checking in every controller method that changes the
code, in addition to the Forge auto-check. Again, defense in depth
and it makes scanning the code for security much simpler.
4) Moved Simple_Uploader_Controller::convert_filename_to_title to
item:convert_filename_to_title
5) Fixed a bug in sending notification emails.
6) Fixed the Organize code to verify that you only have access to your
own tasks. In general, added permission checks to organize which had
pretty much no validation code.
I did my best to verify every feature that I touched.
Install: <module>_installer::install() is called, any necessary tables
are created.
Activate: <module>_installer::activate() is called. Module
controllers are routable, helpers are accessible, etc. The module is
in use.
Deactivate: <module>_installer::deactivate() is called. Module code
is not accessible or routable. Module is *not* in use, but its tables
are still around.
Uninstall: <module>_installer::uninstall() is called. Module is
completely removed from the database.
Admin > Modules will install and activate modules, but will only
deactivate (will NOT uninstall modules).
1) Allow admins to edit the admin bit of other admins
2) Don't allow admins to delete themselves (partial fix for ticket #213)
3) Inline user::update(). Don't do form processing in helper methods!
4) Inline user::_get_edit_form() so that we can treat edit forms differently.
Trying to hard to make common functions makes for weird edge cases.
gets run at scaffolding::package() time, not on the target machine.
Instead, create a core module variable to trigger running
graphics::choose_default_toolkit() on the first admin login after install.
Fixes ticket #206.
1) create common update function so processing consistent between the
user edit and admin edit.
2) created common private helper function to build the user edit form
the same way.
So a user can now change their user name if the new one doesn't exist.
We now have two clear and separate login approaches:
login/ajax
login/html
Choose the one that's appropriate. Totally simplified the maintenance
page to be separate from the theme and dead simple, and use login/html
approach there. Totally simplified the top level login
(login_page.html.php) to just be a login page, not the rest of the
chrome on the page and use the login/ajax approach there.
Don't use access::required in albums and then catch the exception,
instead use access::can and check the return code.
Improve the text for maintenance mode.
