## Current Focus
|
||||
|
||||
bug_class: Bohrbug (deterministic)
|
||||
reasoning_checkpoint:
|
||||
hypothesis: "Logout reads only the bearer header (cookie sessions get 401, nothing revoked, cookie kept, jwt guard accepts the cookie until exp = 60 min), never writes a forget cookie, and blacklists the jti only until the access exp (so /refresh revives a logged-out token after exp + sweep)"
|
||||
confirming_evidence:
|
||||
- "probe: cookie-only logout 401, then GET /tokens with the cookie 200"
|
||||
- "probe: jwt_blacklist.expires_at == exp; after the sweep, /refresh of the logged-out token 200"
|
||||
- "bearer logout already refuses the bearer at once (guard checks blacklist) - so server-side check exists; the gap is what logout revokes and for how long"
|
||||
falsification_test: "if cookie-only logout after the fix still leaves GET /tokens 200, or /refresh after the sweep still 200, hypothesis/fix wrong"
|
||||
fix_rationale: "read the token exactly as the jwt guard does, revoke it (and any other session token the request carries) until the refresh window closes, accept an expired-but-refreshable token like cabana does, and expire the session cookies with auth.cookie attributes"
|
||||
blind_spots: "demo frontend never calls /logout (app-side, not fixable here); auth_token cookie is frontend-owned, its real attributes unknown (forget uses auth.cookie path/domain)"
|
||||
candidate_causes:
|
||||
- "code: Logout bearer-only extraction + exp-only blacklist expiry"
|
||||
- "config: blacklist store not published (no DB) -> no revocation; ruled out, Boot publishes PostgresBlacklist when *sql.DB/*gorm.DB exist and bearer logout works"
|
||||
- "environment/frontend: demo frontend logout only clears its own cookie and never calls /logout"
|
||||
and_gate: "no for the cookie case (extraction alone suffices); the refresh revival is an independent second defect"
|
||||
next_action: human verification in a real app (cookie-only logout, then a jwt.auth request with the old cookie must be 401); after confirmation archive to resolved/ and add the KB entry
|
||||
|
||||
## Symptoms
|
||||
|
||||
expected: after POST /_user/api/v1/logout the old token/cookie is refused (401) on the next request, and the cookies are cleared
|
||||
actual: requests keep authenticating for about 60 minutes, until the token expires
|
||||
errors: none
|
||||
reproduction: login, logout, repeat an authenticated request with the old cookie or token
|
||||
started: reported 2026-10-22

## Eliminated
|
||||
|
||||
## Evidence
|
||||
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: bouncer jwtGuard.Authenticate (summercms.go modules/bouncer/jwt.go)
|
||||
found: access JWTs are checked for HS256 signature, exp, audience, the subject user (GormUsers.FindByID), the jti blacklist (BlacklistStore) and users.tokens_valid_after; token taken from bearer first, then cookies "token", "auth_token" (plugin.go Boot)
|
||||
implication: server-side revocation exists (jwt_blacklist); a blacklisted jti is refused on the next request
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: controllers.Logout (api_controller.go)
|
||||
found: reads bearerToken(r) only (Authorization header); no cookie fallback; never writes a Set-Cookie; blacklists with Add(jti, exp, now) i.e. storage expiry = access exp
|
||||
implication: cookie-only logout => 401, nothing revoked, cookie kept; blacklist row is dropped after exp although the refresh window (20160 min) is still open
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: sociallogin writeSession (token_cookie: true) and bouncer.CookieConfig.TokenCookie
|
||||
found: sets httpOnly `token` cookie (auth.cookie.* name/path/domain/samesite, Max-Age = refresh_ttl) and leaves token out of the body, so the browser cannot send a bearer header
|
||||
implication: such a frontend can only log out with the cookie => H1 path
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: bouncer.refreshAudience comment and blacklist storage expiry
|
||||
found: Refresh stores the old jti until max(exp, iat+refreshTTL)+1min precisely so "a logged-out token cannot be refreshed again"; Logout does not
|
||||
implication: H2 plausible
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: PHP ApiController::logout + AuthManager::logout(true)
|
||||
found: token from Bearer or jwt_token param; JWTAuth::invalidate(forceForever=true) => blacklisted forever; body {"message":"Logged out"}
|
||||
implication: Go logout should keep the jti blocked at least for the refresh window
|
||||
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: cabana admin logout (summercms.go modules/cabana/auth.go logout)
|
||||
found: framework reference: always expires the cookie, reads bearer then cookie, VerifyRefreshableClaimsAudience, blacklists until max(exp, iat+refreshTTL)+1min
|
||||
implication: the plugin's logout lags the framework's own pattern
|
||||
- timestamp: 2026-10-22
|
||||
checked: Docker probe through the assembled router (newAdminEnv), pre-fix
|
||||
found: (A) cookie-only POST /logout -> 401 {"error":true,"message":"Unauthorized"}, no Set-Cookie; GET /tokens (jwt.auth) with the same cookie afterwards -> 200; token exp-iat = 1h0m0s. (B) bearer logout -> 200 and the bearer is refused at once (401), but jwt_blacklist.expires_at == token exp; the sweep after exp deletes the row and POST /refresh with the logged-out token -> 200 with a fresh token
|
||||
implication: H1 and H2 CONFIRMED. New test logout_test.go fails 7/8 subtests pre-fix (bearer passes)
|
||||
|
||||
## Resolution
|
||||
|
||||
root_cause: "controllers.Logout read the token only from the Authorization bearer header, although the jwt guard (and RequestUser) also accept the token/auth_token cookies: a cookie-carried session (e.g. the httpOnly token cookie sociallogin token_cookie sets) got 401 at /logout, nothing was blacklisted and no cookie was cleared, so the cookie kept authenticating jwt.auth routes until exp (golem15.user.jwt.ttl, 60 min). Logout also never wrote a forget cookie; and it (and EndRequestSession) kept the jwt_blacklist row only until the access exp, so after the sweep /refresh revived a logged-out token for the rest of the 20160-min refresh window."
|
||||
fix: "classes.EndSession (new export): revokes every session JWT the request carries (bearer, token, auth_token) that verifies - unexpired, or user-audience within its refresh window - until max(exp, iat+refresh_ttl)+1m; always writes the auth.cookie forget cookie plus forgets for other carried session cookies with the same attributes; returns the guard-order subject. Logout uses it (responses unchanged: 200 Logged out / 401 Unauthorized / 500); EndRequestSession is now its best-effort wrapper."

## Outcome (2026-10-22)
|
||||
|
||||
Confirmed and fixed locally; closes when released. Debug session:
|
||||
`.planning/debug/user-logout-session-stays-valid.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
- Plugin root cause: `Logout` read the token from the `Authorization` header only, so a
|
||||
cookie-only logout (sociallogin `token_cookie: true`) answered 401 and revoked nothing, and the
|
||||
cookie kept working for the 60-minute access TTL; logout cleared no cookie; the blacklist row
|
||||
lived only until `exp`, so a logged-out token could be refreshed again once it was swept.
|
||||
Fix: sm-user-plugin `358ee5d` (new `classes.EndSession`, blacklist until the end of the refresh
|
||||
window, forget cookies with the configured attributes, `TestLogoutEndsTheSession`).
|
||||
- Demo frontend root cause: `useDemoAuth().logout()` only cleared its own cookie and never called
|
||||
`/logout`. Fix: vue-demo-app `f397df2`.
|
||||
- Ships in sm-user-plugin v0.1.8 (with `aa83969`, needs SummerCMS v0.4.3) and the sm-demo-app
|
||||
pointer bumps. Hand check after deploy: cookie-only logout, then a `jwt.auth` route with the old
|
||||
cookie answers 401.
