## Problem
channel binding protects scram from sophisticated MITM attacks where the
attacker is able to produce 'valid' TLS certificates.
## Summary of changes
get the tls-server-end-point channel binding, and verify it is correct
for the SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS authentication flow
Otherwise they get lost. Normally buffer is empty before proxy pass, but this is
not the case with pipeline mode of out npm driver; fixes connection hangup
introduced by b80fe41af3 for it.
fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3822
1) Remove allocation and data copy during each message read. Instead, parsing
functions now accept BytesMut from which data they form messages, with
pointers (e.g. in CopyData) pointing directly into BytesMut buffer. Accordingly,
move ConnectionError containing IO error subtype into framed.rs providing this
and leave in pq_proto only ProtocolError.
2) Remove anyhow from pq_proto.
3) Move FeStartupPacket out of FeMessage. Now FeStartupPacket::parse returns it
directly, eliminating dead code where user wants startup packet but has to match
for others.
proxy stream.rs is adapted to framed.rs with minimal changes. It also benefits
from framed.rs improvements described above.
- Add support for splitting async postgres_backend into read and write halfes.
Safekeeper needs this for bidirectional streams. To this end, encapsulate
reading-writing postgres messages to framed.rs with split support without any
additional changes (relying on BufRead for reading and BytesMut out buffer for
writing).
- Use async postgres_backend throughout safekeeper (and in proxy auth link
part).
- In both safekeeper COPY streams, do read-write from the same thread/task with
select! for easier error handling.
- Tidy up finishing CopyBoth streams in safekeeper sending and receiving WAL
-- join split parts back catching errors from them before returning.
Initially I hoped to do that read-write without split at all, through polling
IO:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/3522
However that turned out to be more complicated than I initially expected
due to 1) borrow checking and 2) anon Future types. 1) required Rc<Refcell<...>>
which is Send construct just to satisfy the checker; 2) can be workaround with
transmute. But this is so messy that I decided to leave split.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/3114
Adds more typization into errors that appear during protocol messages (`FeMessage`), postgres and walreceiver connections.
Socket IO errors are now better detected and logged with lesser (INFO, DEBUG) error level, without traces that they were logged before, when they were wrapped in anyhow context.
This patch aims to fix some of the inconsistencies in error reporting,
for example "Internal error" or "Console request failed" instead of
"password authentication failed for user '<NAME>'".
[proxy] Add the `password hack` authentication flow
This lets us authenticate users which can use neither
SNI (due to old libpq) nor connection string `options`
(due to restrictions in other client libraries).
Note: `PasswordHack` will accept passwords which are not
encoded in base64 via the "password" field. The assumption
is that most user passwords will be valid utf-8 strings,
and the rest may still be passed via "password_".
* [proxy] Propagate most errors to user
This change enables propagation of most errors to the user
(e.g. auth and connectivity errors). Some of them will be
stripped of sensitive information.
As a side effect, most occurrences of `anyhow::Error` were
replaced with concrete error types.
* [proxy] Box weighty errors
This change makes most parts of the code asynchronous, except
for the `mgmt` subsystem (we're going to drop it anyway).
