Comments, docstrings and live test names cited item IDs of a roadmap
that is not part of the repository. They now say what is meant, or
nothing where the sentence stands without them. Test assertions and
behavior are unchanged.
Instance.proxy looked the domain up by its stored name. After a rename
or a name swap outside WebVirtCloud, an operation on one VM changed
another; after a VM was replaced under the same name, operations hit
the new VM.
wvmInstance takes the UUID and uses lookupByUUIDString, with no
fallback to the name: a missing UUID fails instead of picking another
domain. Every caller that has an Instance passes it: proxy, console,
quota, post-migration autostart and the VDI URL. Migration uses the
domain the proxy already resolved. getvvfile and the gstfsd requests
use the host's current name of that UUID.
Live tests cover a name swap and a VM replaced under the same name;
both fail on the previous code.
Clone refused VMs that cloned fine before: a disk without a volume got a
None disk name, and a source image with characters such as a space or "@"
produced a derived name outside the allowed pattern. Disks without a
volume (which clone_instance does not copy) are no longer validated, and
derived disk names are sanitized to the allowed charset. Names typed by a
superuser are still validated strictly.
The console settings form on the VM detail page renders the VNC password
(PasswordInput(render_value=True)) and was shown to every is_staff user.
A staff user with the global view_instances permission, or a staff owner
without is_vnc, could read the VNC password of every VM they could see.
Add instances.utils.can_manage_console (active superuser, or an active
owner with is_change and is_vnc), which matches what update_console
already enforced. The detail view only builds the form, and so only puts
the password into the page, when it returns True; the template and
update_console use the same rule.
Add webvirtcloud/test_authorization_matrix.py, which walks every named URL
and checks that a user without any VM/compute relation only reaches an
explicit allowlist, and that the global view_instances permission does not
open consoles. It found:
- /computes/<id>/... views without any check (compute_graph,
get_compute_*, get_dom_capabilities, storages.get_volumes): the whole
computes URL namespace is now wrapped with superuser_only, so a view
added there later cannot be exposed by a missing decorator.
- guess_mac_address (leaks dhcpd.conf host/MAC pairs), random_mac_address
and guess_clone_name: superuser-only, like the buttons that use them.
- check_instance: cross-tenant VM name lookup with no caller; removed.
- getvvfile and get_vdi_url: reachable with only view_instances, and the
.vv file contains the VNC password.
Console access now follows one rule, instances.utils.can_open_console:
an active superuser or an active owner of the VM. The global
view_instances permission is read-only. It is used by the console page,
novncd, getvvfile and get_vdi_url (getvvfile and the VDI tab are kept for
virt-viewer users). The console page answers 403 instead of 500 when
access is denied, with the same answer for a missing VM.
