* add SSO session extend flow (management)
Adds the management-server half of the SSO session-extension feature:
- New ExtendAuthSession gRPC RPC that refreshes a peer's session expiry
using a fresh JWT, validated through the same pipeline as Login but
without tearing down the tunnel or redoing the NetworkMap sync.
- Per-peer SessionExpiresAt timestamp on every LoginResponse and
SyncResponse so connected clients learn the deadline on the existing
long-lived stream, and admin-side changes (toggling expiration,
changing the expiration window) reach every peer within seconds.
- SessionExpiresAt(...) helper on Peer that derives the absolute UTC
deadline from LastLogin + the account-level PeerLoginExpiration
setting, returning zero when the peer is not SSO-tracked or expiration
is disabled.
The matching client-side consumer of these fields lands separately.
* encode SessionExpiresAt as 3-state on the wire
Previously the `sessionExpiresAt` field on LoginResponse, SyncResponse
and ExtendAuthSessionResponse was 2-state: a valid timestamp meant
"new deadline", and nil meant "clear". That conflated two distinct
meanings — "no info in this snapshot" vs "expiry is explicitly off /
peer is not SSO-tracked" — so a Sync push that legitimately couldn't
compute the deadline (settings lookup failed) would silently clear the
client's anchor and lose the warning window.
Three states now, encoded on the same field number (no .proto schema
churn — only comments and the server-side encoder change):
- nil pointer (field absent) → "no info"; client preserves anchor
- &Timestamp{} (seconds=0, nanos=0) → explicit "disabled / not SSO"
sentinel; client clears
- valid timestamp → new absolute UTC deadline
A new encodeSessionExpiresAt helper centralises the zero/non-zero
encoding and is shared by the Sync, Login and ExtendAuthSession
builders. The Sync builder still emits nil when settings are missing.
Login and ExtendAuthSession always carry an authoritative value.
The matching client-side decoder lands on feature/session-extend.
* add UserExtendedPeerSession activity event
ExtendAuthSession previously reused UserLoggedInPeer for its audit
record, which conflated two distinct user actions: a full interactive
SSO login (tunnel re-established, network map resync) versus an
in-place deadline refresh (tunnel untouched). Auditors reading the log
couldn't tell which one happened, and downstream dashboards/alerts on
"login" volume were polluted by routine extends.
Adds a dedicated UserExtendedPeerSession Activity (code 125,
"user.peer.session.extend") and switches ExtendPeerSession over to it.
The peer-extend audit trail is now distinguishable from interactive
logins.
* make ExtendAuthSession JWT-retry backoff cancellable
Skip the retry log and 200ms wait on the final attempt, and replace the
uncancellable time.Sleep with a select on time.After/ctx.Done so an
upstream cancellation aborts the wait instead of running it to
completion.
* [management] Fence peer status updates with a session token
The connect/disconnect path used a best-effort LastSeen-after-streamStart
comparison to decide whether a status update should land. Under contention
— a re-sync arriving while the previous stream's disconnect was still in
flight, or two management replicas seeing the same peer at once — the
check was a read-then-decide-then-write window: any UPDATE in between
caused the wrong row to be written. The Go-side time.Now() that fed the
comparison also drifted under lock contention, since it was captured
seconds before the write actually committed.
Replace it with an integer-nanosecond fencing token stored alongside the
status. Every gRPC sync stream uses its open time (UnixNano) as its token.
Connects only land when the incoming token is strictly greater than the
stored one; disconnects only land when the incoming token equals the
stored one (i.e. we're the stream that owns the current session). Both
are single optimistic-locked UPDATEs — no read-then-write, no transaction
wrapper.
LastSeen is now written by the database itself (CURRENT_TIMESTAMP). The
caller never supplies it, so the value always reflects the real moment
of the UPDATE rather than the moment the caller queued the work — which
was already off by minutes under heavy lock contention.
Side effects (geo lookup, peer-login-expiration scheduling, network-map
fan-out) are explicitly documented as running after the fence UPDATE
commits, never inside it. Geo also skips the update when realIP equals
the stored ConnectionIP, dropping a redundant SavePeerLocation call on
same-IP reconnects.
Tests cover the three semantic cases (matched disconnect lands, stale
disconnect dropped, stale connect dropped) plus a 16-goroutine race test
that asserts the highest token always wins.
* [management] Add SessionStartedAt to peer status updates
Stored `SessionStartedAt` for fencing token propagation across goroutines and updated database queries/functions to handle the new field. Removed outdated geolocation handling logic and adjusted tests for concurrency safety.
* Rename `peer_status_required_approval` to `peer_status_requires_approval` in SQL store fields
* enable pat creation on setup
* remove logic from handler towards setup service
* fix lint issue
* fix rollback on account id returning empty
* fix coderabbit comments
* fix setup PAT rollback behavior
Embed Dex as a built-in IdP to simplify self-hosting setup.
Adds an embedded OIDC Identity Provider (Dex) with local user management and optional external IdP connectors (Google/GitHub/OIDC/SAML), plus device-auth flow for CLI login. Introduces instance onboarding/setup endpoints (including owner creation), field-level encryption for sensitive user data, a streamlined self-hosting provisioning script, and expanded APIs + test coverage for IdP management.

This PR adds user approval functionality to the management system, allowing administrators to manually approve new users joining via domain matching. When enabled, users are blocked with pending approval status until explicitly approved by an admin.
Adds UserApprovalRequired setting to control manual user approval requirement
Introduces user approval and rejection endpoints with corresponding business logic
Prevents pending approval users from adding peers or logging in
This PR introduces a new onboarding feature to handle such flows in the dashboard by defining an AccountOnboarding model, persisting it in the store, exposing CRUD operations in the manager and HTTP handlers, and updating API schemas and tests accordingly.
Add AccountOnboarding struct and embed it in Account
Extend Store and DefaultAccountManager with onboarding methods and SQL migrations
Update HTTP handlers, API types, OpenAPI spec, and add end-to-end tests
