This introduces a disabled-by-default allow-remote-jobs setting that
controls whether the management server may run jobs (such as debug
bundles) on a peer. The flag propagates end to end: through client
configuration, the daemon SetConfig and Login requests, authentication,
and system info, up to management, where it is stored on the peer and
exposed on the peers API as remote_jobs_allowed. The client refuses any
management-requested job unless the peer has opted in. Because enabling
remote jobs crosses the user-to-root boundary, turning it on requires
privilege, mirroring the SSH-server gate. Administrators can enforce the
setting through MDM policy on both macOS and Windows, and MDM can also
override the debug-bundle upload URL. The change ships policy
documentation and generated profile templates, and adds configuration,
conflict, and enforcement tests covering the opt-in, privilege, and MDM
paths.
* [client] Resolve profiles for the sudo invoking user instead of root
The SSH server flags force `netbird up` through sudo, but the CLI resolved
every per-user path with the process user. As root that reads root's own
(empty) local state, so a `sudo netbird up` silently switched the daemon from
the user's profile to the default one — cancelling any login already waiting
in the browser — and then ran an SSO login for the default profile's config.
Whichever account that login returned, the default profile's peer belongs to
someone else, so every attempt ended in "peer is already registered by a
different User or a Setup Key", with nothing telling the user why.
Resolve the acting user through SUDO_USER when running as root: the active
profile, the profile config paths and the stored account email now come from
the invoking user's directories. Privilege decisions are untouched — they stay
on the kernel credentials of the daemon connection, which an environment
variable can never influence; a forged SUDO_USER only selects a profile root
could select anyway.
The invoking user's directories are strictly read-only under sudo. Anything
root wrote there would be root-owned and break the user's own runs, so instead
of chowning files back, the local writes are skipped: the active-profile
bookkeeping and the account-email state simply do not update from a sudo run
(the daemon records the switch on its side; a skipped email write costs at
most one extra account prompt later).
Plain root — no sudo context — has no user to act for, so the ambiguity is
refused instead of guessed at: when the daemon's active profile differs from
what root resolves and no --profile was given, up fails with a message naming
both profiles, instead of silently switching the daemon and failing later with
the ownership error.
* [client] Act on the daemon-resolved profile and fail closed in the root guard
Under sudo the local active-profile mirror is not updated, so up/login
re-reading it after a profile switch acted on the previous profile; use
the daemon-resolved ID directly instead. The plain-root guard now runs
after the readiness wait, denies on lookup errors and empty responses,
and matches the owning username as well; an unowned profile (fresh
install) and a daemon predating the RPC stay allowed. Write-skip
decisions key off the sudo environment alone so a transient user lookup
failure cannot turn a run into writing root-owned files into the user's
directory, and RemoveProfileState honors the read-only rule too.
* [client] Return a wrapped error instead of double-reporting the dial failure
* [client] Read the profile from the daemon when the local mirror is not authoritative
Under sudo without --profile, `up` took the active profile from the invoking
user's local active_profile.txt mirror and drove the daemon to it. But that
mirror is never written under sudo (the SwitchProfile write is a no-op), so it
goes stale after any --profile run and silently switches the daemon back to the
mirror's default. The plain-root guard was meant to refuse exactly this
ambiguity but only ran for plain root, never for the sudo case the fix targets.
When there is no --profile and the mirror is not authoritative (sudo or plain
root), take the profile the daemon already holds for the invoking user instead
of the stale mirror: stay on the user's current profile when the daemon owns it
(or it is unowned, as on a fresh install), and refuse with a --profile hint when
the daemon is on another user's profile. A daemon predating the RPC keeps the
mirror-derived profile.
Reproduce (before this change):
1. As a non-root user misha, with the daemon installed and running:
sudo netbird up --profile work
misha connects on the `work` profile.
2. Because the local mirror write is skipped under sudo,
~misha/.config/netbird/active_profile.txt still says `default` (or is still
absent, which also resolves to `default`).
3. Run a bare:
sudo netbird up
The CLI reads `default` from the frozen mirror and sends ProfileName=default;
the daemon silently switches away from `work` and brings the tunnel up on
`default` — a different account/peer than the one last chosen, with no
warning. After this change step 3 stays on `work`.
* [client] Return a sentinel error instead of nil-nil for the missing daemon RPC
* [client] Load the extend-session hint from the resolved profile
* [client] Fail closed instead of reading root's config when the sudo user lookup fails
* [client] Fail closed in InvokingUser when the sudo user lookup fails
A previous change made baseConfigDir fail closed when SUDO_USER cannot be
resolved, but InvokingUser still fell through to user.Current(). Those two
guards disagreed: the active-profile mirror and the email state refused to
read root's directory, while every profile-path caller happily resolved as
root.
The consequence of a transient NSS failure under sudo was that
Profile.FilePath resolved through getConfigDirForUser("root"), creating
/var/lib/netbird/root and reading the profile JSON from there, and the CLI
sent Username "root" to the daemon in SetConfig and ListProfiles, so the
daemon resolved the same phantom namespace. The invoking user was silently
moved onto a root-owned profile instead of being told the lookup failed.
Fail closed at the single source of the fallback. getConfigDirForUser is
left alone on purpose: it is a pure path helper that also serves
daemon-supplied usernames, and under sudo with a successful lookup it must
still create the invoking user's own profile directory.
Adds an SSHClient gomobile binding so the Android app can run an SSH session over the tunnel with a PTY, exposed through a listener interface for the in-app terminal.
Server type is auto-detected from the SSH banner, which selects the auth path: JWT device-code flow, NetBird key, or a regular server (NetBird key first, then password). Host keys are verified against the peer registry for NetBird servers and trust-on-first-use for regular ones.
* [client] Pass stored email as login hint from UI and keep it on logout
Follow the CLI pattern: the Wails UI now reads the account email from the
user-owned profile state file and passes it as the OIDC login_hint on login
and session extend, since the daemon-side fallback runs as root and cannot
see the user's state file. Logout no longer deletes the stored email, so a
later login preselects the account at the IdP; profile removal remains the
operation that deletes it.
* [client] Log ignored profile lookup errors in extend-session hint fallback
## Describe your changes
Three fixes to how the desktop GUI keeps the account email that backs
the SSO `login_hint`. Each is independent and reviewable on its own.
**1. Store the email after a GUI SSO login**
The daemon returns the authenticated user's email from `WaitSSOLogin`
but cannot persist it: it runs as root while the per-profile state file
is user-owned. The CLI's `handleSSOLogin` writes it after its own
`WaitSSOLogin`; the GUI path read the value and dropped it.
The profile was therefore left with no email, so `Profiles.List` showed
no account for it, and later logins and session extends went out with no
`login_hint` — leaving the IdP to pick an account instead of reusing the
one the profile belongs to. Mirror the CLI and store it, next to the
`Logout` path that already clears the same file for the same reason.
**2. File the email against the profile the login ran for**
`SetActiveProfileState` resolves the target itself, so it writes to
whichever profile is active when it is called. A GUI SSO login spans
seconds of user interaction in the browser, and the tray stays clickable
throughout: switching profiles in that window left the email filed under
the profile that happened to be active when the flow returned. The wrong
profile then advertised an account it does not own, and offered it as
the `login_hint` next time.
Adds `SetProfileState(id, state)`, the write-side counterpart of the
existing `GetProfileState(id)`, and keeps `SetActiveProfileState` as a
wrapper for callers with no particular profile in mind. `Login` now
reports the profile it resolved so the frontend can hand it back with
the SSO wait, which closes the window.
**3. Delete the email when a profile is removed**
Removing a profile left its state file behind: the daemon deletes what
it owns, but the email file is user-owned and out of reach for a root
daemon — the same split that already puts the `Logout` cleanup on the UI
side.
Beyond the stray file, legacy profiles are keyed by name rather than by
a generated ID, so recreating a profile under a removed one's name
inherited its email — shown as the account in the profile list and sent
as the `login_hint` on the next login.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **New Features**
- SSO login details can now be saved to the specific profile selected
during sign-in.
- Profile state can be managed independently for different profiles.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Removing a profile now also cleans up its associated saved state.
- Cleanup issues no longer prevent successful profile removal and are
handled gracefully.
- Existing active-profile behavior remains unchanged.
<!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
- **Wails v3 application** (`client/ui`) with a React + TypeScript + Tailwind frontend replacing the Fyne UI: main connection view, exit-node switcher, networks/peers browser with detail panels, profile management, settings (general, network, SSH, security, troubleshooting, appearance), debug-bundle creation, and a first-run welcome flow.
- **Internationalization**: go-i18n bundle with 9 locales (en, de, es, fr, hu, it, pt, ru, zh-CN) shared between the tray and the frontend.
- **New system tray** implementation with per-platform theme-aware icons, including a native XEmbed host for Linux (`xembed_tray_linux.c`) and a Linux theme watcher.
- **Session handling**: auth session watcher (`client/internal/auth/sessionwatch`), pending login flow, session-expiration dialog and tray notifications, and `netbird login` improvements.
- **Daemon API extensions** (`daemon.proto`): status stream subscription, event stream, networks/exit-node selection endpoints, and richer full status — with probe throttling on the daemon side to protect against UI-driven request storms.
- **UI preferences store** persisted per profile, autostart management via the daemon (single source of truth in HKCU on Windows).
- **Build system**: Taskfile-based builds per platform (macOS, Linux, Windows), Docker cross-compilation images, MSIX/NSIS/nfpm/AppImage packaging, and a new `frontend-ui` CI workflow.

apply() compared several *bool/*int ConfigInput fields against the
Config fields by pointer identity instead of by value, so any
non-nil input always looked "changed" and triggered a spurious log
line plus an unconditional config rewrite even when the value was
unchanged.

* UI behavior conflicts relaxation
UI sends full config snapshot with all values. It doesn't
make sense to block it if the values are aligned with the
values constrained by the MDM policy. It's just simplier
to allow values that are compliant. (this goes for the CLI
as well at this point)

* Fixup presharedkey
* Apply MDM locks
* Toggle gray in/out for Advanced Settings
* Adds support for disabling of Profiles and UpdateSettings feature flags
* Adds Gate Login as well when --disable-update-settings=true is given to service
This commit tries to settle things with an old PR-4237 which had relaxed
the case where the SetConfig returned an `Unavailable` code error.
Under this circumnstance the PR allowed the upFunc to just emit a warning and
progress further with the login gRPC. Since the login call is consuming
the --management-url coming from the `up` command, it might be possible
to abuse the "Unavailable" code to inject a management URL that is different
from the configured one even though the --disable-update-settings is set
to true (?)
* Evaluate disable-update-settings errors only when there's an actual override
* [UI] Fixup advanced Settings
* [UI] Fixup for preshared key

* Fixes Rosenpass left disable after MDM unlock
* Partial revert coderabbit added docstrings
* Renaming fix
* Avoid locking on clientRunning bool when the connection is aborted for whatever reason
We want to just signal this through the giveUpChan, we will manage the signal from
the waiter side and in case set it to false there. THis way we avoid locking,
which should allow the MDM down+wait_for_term_chan_signal_+up procedure
clientRunning is used to signal two different conditions here:
1. the initialization procedure is over (we have an engine)
2. the connection being up (or being attempted)
Probably these two functionalities should not alias, and the failure of the second condition
(because of any error) should just drive a reconnection (currently it's not happening,
and we silently go idle).
OR, mor probably, the two things are the SAME and there should not exist a case where
we did the "Up" initialization and connection attempt but we are not still attempting it.
* Moves test helper at te very bottom
* Addresses github comments
* No lock no copy
* Prevents engine not stopping within 10 secs from being paired by another instance
We instead juts SKIP updating the policy, so
1. the MDM ticker will kick in 1 minute time,
2. find the policy misaligned,
3. enter the onMDMPolicyChange,
4. find the s.clientRunning == true
(because it is set to false only in server cleanupConnection,
and not by s.actCancel())
5. call s.actCancel() again if not nil
6. immediately return from <-s.clientGiveUpChan
7. finally call s.restartEngineForMDMLocked()
* Since we ARE running there should be a config
If the config was cancelled midflight, connect will abort later on
* DisableAutoConnect should not stop a running connection.
DisableAutoConnect should just avoid the connection attempts *when the service starts*.
If we are started and we are up and running, DisableAutoConnect should not kick in.
Another PR will follow about this topic
* Removes unused vars
* Moves callback into Run method arg
* align comment to removal of DisableAutoConnect
DisableAutoConnect should just avoid the connection attempts *when the service starts*.
If we are started and we are up and running, DisableAutoConnect should not kick in
* Removes unused managed_fields data.
This was initially used to drive the UI but approach changed
to reload config/features upon notifications which makes this data redundant.
* Reorder stuff
* Unexport unrequired vars/functions
PoliciesEqual → policiesEqual
AllKeys → allKeys
* Adds list of MDM managed fields in the debug bundle
Update the mgmProber interface to use HealthCheck() instead of the
now-unexported GetServerPublicKey(), aligning with the changes in the
management client API.
* Unexport GetServerPublicKey, add HealthCheck method
Internalize server key fetching into Login, Register,
GetDeviceAuthorizationFlow, and GetPKCEAuthorizationFlow methods,
removing the need for callers to fetch and pass the key separately.
Replace the exported GetServerPublicKey with a HealthCheck() error
method for connection validation, keeping IsHealthy() bool for
non-blocking background monitoring.
Fix test encryption to use correct key pairs (client public key as
remotePubKey instead of server private key).
* Refactor `doMgmLogin` to return only error, removing unused response
- Connect on daemon start only if the file existed before
- fixed a bug that happened when the default profile config was removed, which would recreate it and reset the active profile to the default.
* updates to client file writing
* numerous
* minor
* - Align OnLoginSuccess behavior with Android (only call on nil error)
- Remove verbose debug logging from WaitToken in device_flow.go
- Improve TUN FD=0 fallback comments and warning messages
- Document why config save after login differs from Android
* Add nolint directive for staticcheck SA1029 in login.go
* Fix CodeRabbit review issues for iOS/tvOS SDK
- Remove goroutine from OnLoginSuccess callback, invoke synchronously
- Stop treating PermissionDenied as success, propagate as permanent error
- Replace context.TODO() with bounded timeout context (30s) in RequestAuthInfo
- Handle DirectUpdateOrCreateConfig errors in IsLoginRequired and LoginForMobile
- Add permission enforcement to DirectUpdateOrCreateConfig for existing configs
- Fix variable shadowing in device_ios.go where err was masked by := in else block
* Address additional CodeRabbit review issues for iOS/tvOS SDK
- Make tunFd == 0 a hard error with exported ErrInvalidTunnelFD (remove dead fallback code)
- Apply defaults in ConfigFromJSON to prevent partially-initialized configs
- Add nil guards for listener/urlOpener interfaces in public SDK entry points
- Reorder config save before OnLoginSuccess to prevent teardown race
- Add explanatory comment for urlOpener.Open goroutine
* Make urlOpener.Open() synchronous in device auth flow
Expose the profile-manager service for Android. Logout was not part of the manager service implementation. In the future, I recommend moving this logic there.
