The hand-off parked a password before its question, for up to five
minutes, and on a shared computer another local user could ask for
someone's sign-in with a link of their own. Now nothing leaves the page
before the yes, and the instance has a switch for such machines.
- `/check` tests a password and keeps nothing, `/park` runs on the yes and
hands over tokens wherever the server allows, a password as a last
resort
- `/discard` and a timer take out what SSO has to park first, and a no
revokes the refresh token, and the shared store's TTL is the real expiry
- `DESKTOP_BROWSER_SIGN_IN`, default on, closes the routes, the page's
hand-off and the app's button; the question says which device asked
- tokens from a typed password stay a password account under the name
typed (#1432)
- redeem refuses a server of the user's own when the device's rule says
no
- the park budget is reserved before going upstream, and only failures
count
- "Not now" ends the flow in the app at once, and the question names the
account
`desktop-handoff-routes.test.ts` now tests the two-step flow against the
real budgets. `sso-start-route.test.ts`'s config mock answers the new
setting, and the SSO test's expected answer has the account in it.
The desktop login page gets "Sign in with your browser…" as its main
button. On an instance it opens the instance's real login page in the
system browser, with a PKCE challenge. The page checks the password or
runs SSO, parks the sign-in under a one-time code, asks once, and sends
the code to the app's loopback listener. This browser gets no session
out of it, and the app's own page redeems the code, so SameSite=Strict
is fine. Standalone runs the mail server's OAuth against the listener,
with a page from main for a server with no OAuth at all.
- `/api/auth/desktop-handoff/park` and `redeem`, and `sso/complete` parks
tokens the same way for a loopback target
- `auth.claim()`: the calls are taken once per document, in the first
render, in `WindowControlsHost`
- `BrowserSignIn` policy, default on, with its ADMX and samples
- strings in all 30 languages, and the old button's are gone
`runDesktopBrowserSignIn`'s tests changed because the code no longer goes
through the callback page's address: it's redeemed where it arrives.
