Any request on logs.<swarm> carrying a well-formed swarm-agent bearer
made swarm-logs-auth do a bao cert login and KV read before it could
refuse, with no cap on the rate.
nginx now applies limit_req (zone swarm_logs_agent_auth, keyed by
client address, 5r/s burst 20 nodelay by default) on the internal
location that forwards to swarm-logs-auth, answering 403 when over,
since auth_request passes through only 401/403 and swarm-logs retries
a 401. The authelia path and the query location carry no limit.
swarm-logs-auth remembers bearers it has granted, keyed by SHA-256 of
the bearer, for --verdict-ttl seconds (deploy.victorialogs.authVerdictTtl,
60 by default), holding at most 4096 and evicting the oldest. Denials
are never remembered. A replaced or deleted queue secret therefore
keeps working at the log store for up to the TTL after its last check.
Closes#5190
swarm-logs reads `swarm/agents/<agent>/queue` from the swarm secret
store with the agent's own store certificate (the read hive-agent makes
for its queue connection) and presents it as
`Bearer swarm-agent.<agent>.<secret>`, which the gateway's
swarm-logs-auth checks. On a 401 it reads the secret again and retries
once, so a secret re-minted between the read and the check does not
fail the query.
The OIDC mint against the hive's shared `hive-<h>-agent` client is gone
from swarm-logs, along with the unused `HIVE_AGENT_OIDC_CA_FILE` anchor.
logs.nix now gates on the store address instead of the queue's token
endpoint and wraps the binary with the paths queue-identity.nix gives
the harness; the host forwards the query URL wherever it forwards a
store identity.
The shared client is still delivered into containers; removing that is
Part of #4459.
`swarm-logs query` got a bare nginx 401 from the swarm log store on every
query. The agent OIDC client is registered for `authelia.bearer.authz`
(`swarm-authelia.nix`'s `agentClients` sets `bearerAuthz`), but registration
is not issuance: the token request asked for no scope, so the token came back
carrying none, and authelia's `/api/authz/auth-request` refuses that exactly
as it refuses an unauthenticated caller.
The same failure is already recorded in `swarm-otel.nix` against the
collector's client, on the same scope string — prometheus asks for no scopes
unless told to, and every scrape was refused at introspection. This is that
bug one layer down, so it gets the same shape of fix.
`scope` becomes an opt-in parameter alongside `audience`, not a hardcoded
value or a config field: the two travel together (registered ≠ requested
applies to both) and only the destination decides whether either is needed.
`None` keeps every other caller byte-identical — the NATS connect callback,
`auth.rs`'s bridge client and the OTLP push client all pass it.
Refs #4464
An agent can reach VictoriaLogs only through the gateway, and since the
machine query route landed the way to read it has been to hand-roll a
client_credentials token request and a curl, per query. This is the CLI
that closes that: `swarm-logs query '<LogsQL>'`, matched log lines on
stdout, so the answer pipes into grep like any other command's.
Built to the plan posted on the tracker thread: own crate, own
docs/tools reference generated off the clap tree, `query` as the one
verb, and the JSON error body surfaced on a non-200 rather than
swallowed. No `tail`: streaming is a different endpoint with a different
response shape, and folding it in here would be a fatter scope than the
ask.
Minting the token is NOT implemented here — swarm-queue-client already
owns the client_credentials request, its error type and its CA handling,
and a token-endpoint fix has to be findable in one place. What this crate
adds is the agent-shaped half: the client id arrives as a *file* beside
the secret, so nothing outside nix/agent-modules/queue.nix spells
`hive-<name>-agent` twice. That is the same problem hive-agent's
swarm_queue module solves, and swarm-logs/src/auth.rs is its `decide`
restated over this binary's inputs.
⚠️ The plan named one thing to verify empirically before calling the auth
settled: whether authelia's bearer policy for the logs vhost accepts the
agent client's audience. Measured from inside a container: it does not.
The client minted a token fine but with `aud: []` and `scp: []`, asking
for the logs URL as an audience answered `invalid_target`, and presenting
the audience-less token to the gateway answered a bare 401. So
swarm-authelia.nix's agentClients gains `authelia.bearer.authz` and the
query URL as a second audience — authelia authorises a bearer token by
the URL being requested, and that URL is now one binding read by three
places rather than three spellings of one address.
The URL reaches an agent the same way its queue coordinates do: computed
on the host (a container cannot derive a gateway address), forwarded by
hive_c0re::meta into the container's option set, and consumed by a new
agent module that installs the binary *wrapped* with its coordinates —
the shape swarm-controller.nix installs swarmctl in. Gated on the queue
credential as well as on the URL: a binary that can only answer 401 is
worse than no binary, because an agent reads a 401 as "no logs", which is
the exact confusion the store's machine route was added to end.
