Per-PC credentials (replaces the 09-14 client-certificate attempt):
- POST /api/endpoints/enroll issues a credential to a PC that matches exactly
one computer by hostname and BIOS serial and has none yet. Anything else
(unknown or duplicate hostname, serial mismatch, already enrolled) waits as
a request an admin approves or rejects. The agent's persisted nonce binds an
approved request to the PC that asked.
- One auth helper serves every agent route. With X-Endpoint-Credential the
asset comes from the credential and a request naming another PC gets 403
ASSET_MISMATCH. The shared key still works for PCs that have not enrolled,
is refused (401 SHARED_KEY_REFUSED) for any PC that has, and can be switched
off. A revoked credential gets 401 CREDENTIAL_INVALID so the agent
re-enrolls.
- The core collector accepts the credential for the computers, printers and
endpoints collectors through two new plugin hooks exposed on shopdb.api
(contract 0.33.0), and refuses the shared key for enrolled PCs.
- Admin API: enrollment list, approve, reject, revoke (un-enroll), settings.
Migration API: per-PC readiness with blockers, and upgrade waves that
package the agent once and queue the existing agent upgrade per PC.
- Migration 0023 creates endpointcredentials, endpointenrollrequests and
endpointmigrationwaves, drops the certificate columns from assets where
test databases have them, and renames app_fingerprint to appfingerprint.
0021 and 0022 keep their ids but no longer alter the core assets table.
- Removed: client_cert.py, certificate renewal, the unauthenticated
/test/client-cert route, nginx client certificate forwarding and the agent
certificate script. The client-cert header could be forged on IIS, the key
was readable by users, and the shared key remained a fallback.
- GET /settings/server-cert returns the SPKI SHA-256 pin for GE-Enforce.
Review fixes:
- report_command_result used g without importing it; every result was a 500.
- collect_log refuses setup answer files, appsettings, agent directories and
key files at enqueue.
- Fleet alerts: alerttimeout and alertfleet agree with the migration, the
scope is validated and a malformed scope no longer reaches the whole fleet,
and the ack race no longer raises NameError.
- A refused break-glass override leaves no hold and no audit row.
- Agent upgrade checks locks and permissions before repackaging, and writes
the package atomically.
- Server certificate upload validates the pair before replacing files;
generation no longer builds an openssl config from user input; audit rows
are actually written.
- Health evaluation runs in a savepoint so a caught error cannot lose the
check-in.
- Required-app policies are found by appid, survive renames, and deleting an
app deactivates policies that still name it. The UI and API now say such a
policy only takes effect inside a business policy.
- Backfill handles duplicate fingerprints and rolls back a failed batch.
- Plugin settings routes skip a plugin whose hook raises.
- The setup token is no longer printed to the log.
- The naming gate checks top-level files again and handles odd file names.
- Removed root scratch scripts, one of which carried a token.
- Rewrote the fleet alert scheduling and app delta tests on real fixtures.
A newly created user held no roles and no permissions, so the sidebar filtered every nav item away and the account appeared broken. Adds three prebuilt scopes (Reporter, Operator, Technician) derived from the live permission catalog by verb rather than hand-listed, so a new plugin permission lands in the right scope automatically instead of silently going ungranted. users.view is granted to all three since a user who cannot see the directory cannot collaborate; users.create/edit/delete stay admin-only. Role.seedscopes() is additive and idempotent, seeded via flask seed permissions, and preserves custom grants on rerun.
Reporter guard: the auth model is additive across admin, direct grants and roles, so Reporter cannot be expressed as merely fewer grants - a direct endpoint-action grant would silently re-arm a read-only account. Rather than change the global permission predicate and alter every route's semantics, _check_scope_grants() rejects the invalid combination at write time on both create and update. The update path validates the effective post-update state, so demoting a Technician to Reporter is refused while a stale endpoint grant remains rather than quietly leaving a read-only user with write authority.
Validation runs before the User object is constructed. Assigning user.roles first put the relationship into the session autoflush path while the User was still unattached; nothing broke because the refusal returns before db.session.add(), but it left a trap where any query added below that point would autoflush a half-built user and surface later as an orphan row. Verified with -W error::sqlalchemy.exc.SAWarning: 25 passed.
Assign printers to a MACHINE and let whichever PC controls it install them, with
the observed half kept strictly apart from the assigned half: a collector report
can never write an assignment row. Adoption is explicit. Adds a singular
relationship type so defaultprinter can mean exactly one, client scripts that
converge a bay's queues and correct a drifted one in place, and a wave gate so a
fleet-wide driver rollout cannot stampede its own share.
On the container side: the compose stack never persisted the instance directory,
so a rebuild discarded plugins.json and every upload. It is a volume now, the
image ships instance/ owned by the app user so the mountpoint is writable, and
the database moves to MySQL 8.4 LTS, which the Windows runbook has recommended
since 8.0 went end of life. The image also could not build at all: the frontend
stage never copied the plugin staging script it runs.
Adds a topology migration guide covering IIS to Docker and back.
