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.
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.
url:site(url::abs_file(...))
Create a login_page.html to be used when there is no guest access to
the root album. It doesn't have a sidebar nor breadcrumb.
can start to logon, request the password to be reset, and an email is
sent to the users email address. If you click on the link you get an
unformatted form. But its a start :-)
password field in order for the update to succeed. If there is no
data entered in the primary password field, the confirmation field is
ignored.
Addresses Trac Ticket #4
OLD:
$form->submit("Foo") --> <input type="submit" value="Foo">
New:
$form->submit("foo_button")->("Foo") --> <input type="submit" name="foo_button" value="Foo">
Mostly we don't care what the button is so we leave the name blank.
user modules.
* Don't delete vars when we delete a module. This makes
reinstalling a module a lot easier.
* Add user::lookup() as the preferred way to load a user, so that
other modules don't delve into the user module (that'd be a
problem when we swap out user modules)
* Notify site admins if Akismet is not fully configured
* Bundle all server variables into the comment so that if/when we
re-check the comment, we are not using the server info from the
site admin's request.
* Update Akismet to grab request context data from the comment
* Pre-seed comment fields if we have a logged in user. Update
comment::create() API to clarify it for this.
* Delete comment::update(), that's a controller function.
* Add url to User_Model
* Add author_name() author_email() and author_url() to
Comment_Model. It'll return the appropriate values depending
on whether the comment was left by a logged in user or a guest.
* Use resetForm() instead of clearForm() when we reload the
comment form after ajax submit, this way we preserve the
pre-seeded values.
* In the user profile page, ignore blank passwords.
- And refactor printf to our string interpolation / pluralization syntax
- Also, a slight change to the translations_incomings table, using binary(16) instead of char(32) as message key.
