With previous configuration format rules were not ordered between groups and
thus not predictable. Also in some cases `any` must have been a higher
precedence than `groups`. Flattening the rules let the user apply whatever
policy he can think of.
When several rules match the (subject, domain, resource), the first one is
applied.
NOTE: This commit changed the format for declaring ACLs. Be sure to update
your configuration file before upgrading.
In order to redirect the user after authentication, Authelia uses
rd query parameter provided by the proxy. However an attacker could
use phishing to make the user be redirected to a bad domain. In order
to avoid the user to be redirected to a bad location, Authelia now
verifies the redirection URL is under the protected domain.
In order to simplify the deployment of Authelia for
testing, LDAP is now optional made optional thanks
to users database stored in a file. One can update
the file manually even while Authelia is running.
With this feature the minimal configuration requires
only two components: Authelia and nginx.
The users database is obviously made for development
environments only as it prevents Authelia to be scaled
to more than one instance.
Note: Configuration has been updated. Key `ldap` has
been nested in `authentication_backend`.
Before this patch, when Authelia started, if Mongo was not
up and running, Authelia failed to connect and never retried.
Now, everytime Authelia faces a broken connection, it tries
to reconnect during the next operation.
Traefik handles auth forwarding but does not manage redirections like Nginx.
Therefore, Authelia must redirect the user and Traefik will forward this
request.
To support both Nginx and Traefik, /api/verify is now configurable with the
'redirect' get parameter. If the verification fails and 'redirect' is not
provided the response will be a 401 error as before.
If the parameter is provided and set to any URL, the response will be a
redirection (302) to this URL.
