Purpose

Forward-port the merged release/3.9.0 elsa-core identity and authorization work to main: installed-features authenticated-only access, sign-in session revocation on logout (RevokedSessions), designer descriptor-catalog grants, dashboard section gating, RequireAnyPermission, and the FastEndpoints test-resolver isolation fix.

Studio 3.9 identity/permission work is not in this PR. That is PR B: #8586.

This branch has been merge-committed with current main (b6447e35c), which includes #8567, #8571, #8569, #8584 (F1 strict-subject refresh), and #8585.

Scope

Code Review R1

Greptile 4/5: a caller with runtime-status permission but not workflows/instances:view still triggered one summary query plus five count queries against the instance store, then threw the results away. DashboardContext now carries the caller's grants so WorkflowDashboardContributor skips those queries on the overview path. Tests assert the store is not queried.

Also in that revision:

  • Reworded the issuer migration note ("without any sign" → "without warning").
  • Disposed the three flagged HttpRequestMessage objects in tests.
  • Left HttpContextPermissionExtensions unchanged. Correction: there are five callers, not one. EndpointSecurity uses ?.; DashboardAccess, ConnectionEndpointSupport, and the two Workflows.Api list endpoints pass a non-null HttpContext. A null context still never reaches the dereference. Same conclusion.

Same dashboard fix on release/3.9.0: #8589. Mongo/Dapper revoked-session follow-up: #8588 (3.10).

Code Review R2

CanRead is now an init-only property on the DashboardContext record body. The five positional parameters (and therefore the 3.8 constructor and Deconstruct) are unchanged. CreateContext sets CanRead via an object initializer. The GetFindingsAsync store skip is removed (/dashboard/needs-attention already requires dashboard:view or workflows/instances:view); the overview skip stays. The hook is documented on the property and in the migration guide.

Pre-upgrade refresh tokens stay valid for the remaining time under their issued expiry, not "at most RefreshTokenLifetime after the upgrade" (that bound is wrong if the lifetime is lowered during the upgrade). Same wording on #8589.

Design decisions

Conflicts resolved on the #8584 main merge

In the six refresh files: kept this PR's revoked-session check (before the user lookup) and the session passed into IssueTokens, and #8584's RefreshTokenSubject.FindUserId (401 on a missing, blank or conflicting sub / NameIdentifier). All tests from both sides are kept.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added sign-out support: signed-in users can revoke a session’s refresh tokens, including expired tokens, and prevent further refreshes. Existing access tokens remain valid until they expire. EF Core persistence supports durable revocation storage.
    • Dashboard overview is available to signed-in users, with sections filtered by their permissions. Dashboard activity endpoints accept either dashboard-view or workflow-instance-view access.
    • Signed-in users can browse installed-feature and descriptor catalogs without catalog-specific permissions. Listing workflow-definition versions requires definition-view access; sensitive catalog operations remain permission-controlled.
    • Added support for endpoints that accept any one of several permissions.
  • Documentation
    • Updated guides with sign-out requirements, session persistence considerations, and authorization behavior.

* fix(features): let any authenticated user read installed features

GET /features/installed and GET /features/installed/{fullName} required
system/features:view. Elsa Studio decides which modules to render from
this list, so a user without that grant got a 403, Studio treated it as
"nothing installed", and every feature-gated module disappeared -- even
ones the user holds permissions for.

Both endpoints now declare RequireAuthenticatedOnly(), mirroring
GET /identity/me/permissions. Anonymous callers are still rejected.

The system/features:view descriptor is kept (and re-described) so roles
that already hold it keep resolving instead of being flagged by the
startup validator, and the migration guide's mapping row stays valid.

…8552)

* feat(identity): revoke the sign-in session on POST /identity/logout

Elsa Identity had no way to invalidate a refresh token, so signing out only
discarded tokens client-side and a copied refresh token kept working until
it expired.

Refresh tokens are stateless JWTs, so revocation needs server-side state.
Each sign-in now starts a session: refresh tokens carry an elsa:session_id
claim, and refreshing carries it over. POST /identity/logout (authenticated,
body { refreshToken }) records the session as revoked, and both refresh
paths -- the RefreshToken bearer scheme behind /identity/refresh-token and
DefaultIdentityRefreshTokenService used by the broker -- refuse every
refresh token of that session, including ones it held before its latest
refresh. The refresh endpoint answers 401, as for any invalid token. Other
sessions of the same user are unaffected.

Logout answers 204 for revoked, already-revoked, expired and unrecognised
tokens; 400 for a token of this deployment that is not a refresh token, so
sending the access token by mistake is not reported as success; 403 for
another user's refresh token.

Access tokens are not revoked; they stay valid until they expire (15
minutes by default). A denylist would put a store lookup on every request.

Revocations are kept until the session's last refresh token would have
expired, tenant-agnostic because the check runs before a tenant is
resolved. IRevokedSessionStore defaults to memory; EF Core persistence adds
a RevokedSessions table via a new RevokedSessions migration for SQL Server,
SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL and Oracle.

Refresh tokens issued before this change keep working; their session is
derived from the token itself.

* fix(identity): index RevokedSessions.ExpiresAt and cover review findings

Every revoke prunes expired revocations by ExpiresAt, so RevokedSessions
gets an index on it. The unmerged RevokedSessions migration is regenerated
for all five providers to include it.

Docs now record the DefaultIdentityRefreshTokenService constructor break,
that the migration must be applied before upgraded hosts refresh tokens,
the RefreshTokenLifetime assumption, and /identity/logout in the module
README. Tests cover cross-tenant refresh-token ownership on logout and a
revoked session being refused by the broker's local refresh_token grant.

* docs(identity): correct sign-out scope and limits; tidy logout tests

* test(identity): assert logout succeeds before checking other sessions

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(identity): make session revocation outlive every refresh token it covers

Refresh tokens now carry the session's latest refresh-token expiry in
elsa:session_exp, carried forward on every refresh, so a revocation made
after RefreshTokenLifetime was lowered outlives the longer-lived tokens
the presented one was refreshed from. A revocation's expiry never
decreases: IRevokedSessionStore.SaveAsync becomes AddOrExtendAsync, and
the EF Core store writes it with a conditional update, then an insert
that goes back to extending when it loses a concurrent race, instead of
replacing the row or failing on the primary key.

IAccessTokenIssuer's session-aware overload now takes a SignInSession
and has no default implementation, so a custom issuer can no longer
compile while silently starting a new session on every refresh. The
migration guide records the break.

The flaky RefreshAsyncRejectsAccessAndTamperedTokens changed the last
signature character, whose two low bits are padding: about one token in
sixteen stayed valid, which the test's user provider used to hide by
returning no user. It now changes the first signature character.

* fix(authorization): let a definition viewer open the designer (#8553)

A role holding only workflows/definitions:view could list definitions but
got 403 on every supporting call Studio makes when opening one.

The read-only descriptor catalogs (activities, variables, storage drivers,
output converters, expression descriptors, activation, incident, log
persistence and commit strategies) and GET /resilience/strategies describe
what is installed, not anything stored, so they now require an authenticated
caller and no permission, mirroring /features/installed. Anonymous callers
are still rejected.

GET /workflow-definitions/{definitionId}/versions now requires
workflows/definitions:view: a definition viewer can already read every
version of a definition, so the list discloses nothing further. Deleting
and reverting versions are unchanged.

The permission descriptors stay in the catalog, re-described, so roles that
hold them keep resolving. The migration guide documents the change.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(authorization): keep the activity registry refresh permission-gated (#8553)

GET /descriptors/activities?refresh=true rebuilds the activity registry, so it
still requires workflows/descriptors/activities:view; the plain read stays
authenticated-only. The permission descriptions and the migration guide now say
what each permission still guards, that the activity catalog also lists stored
workflows marked as usable as an activity, and which designer calls keep their
own permission.

The catalog tests share their paths, allow an authenticated caller with no
permissions, and assert the response body.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(authorization): ignore the registry refresh flag instead of rejecting it (#8553)

GET /descriptors/activities?refresh=true only rebuilds the registry for callers
holding workflows/descriptors/activities:view. Everyone else gets the current
registry with 200, so Studio, which always sends the flag, still opens the
designer for a definitions:view-only role while the expensive rebuild stays
gated. Permission text and the migration guide say so.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(authorization): let definition viewers refresh the activity registry (#8553)

Publishing updates the activity registry only on the node that handled it, so in a
cluster Studio's refresh=true on each load is how other nodes pick up a new
workflow-as-activity. Honour the flag for workflows/definitions:view as well as
workflows/descriptors/activities:view; other callers still get the current registry.

… data (#8562)

* feat(dashboard): gate each dashboard section by the permission of its data (#8561)

Every dashboard endpoint required dashboard:view, so a caller who could read
workflow instances, the runtime or the logs still could not see the matching
dashboard widget. Elsa Studio now shows the Dashboard to every signed-in user
and gates each widget by its data, so the API applies the same rule.

dashboard:view keeps reading the whole overview. GET /dashboard/overview now
requires an authenticated caller only and withholds each section the caller
may not read: it comes back with Capability = Unauthorized and no data
(runtime and workflowInstances gain a capability field for this). The
workflow-trends, recent-activity, needs-attention and workflow-hotspots
endpoints answer 403 unless the caller holds dashboard:view or
workflows/instances:view. Checks run in the handler with the permission
evaluator and allow everything when endpoint security is disabled.

Contributions declare the permission of the data they add
(DashboardOverviewContribution.Permissions, and Permission on metric cards,
panels and findings), so third-party contributions are filtered the same way
and the dashboard module keeps no reference to the workflow or diagnostics
modules. Anything supplied without a declaration needs dashboard:view.
Findings are filtered too, so needs-attention does not leak runtime or
diagnostics data to an instance viewer.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): skip unreadable contributors and gate trend, activity and hotspot rows (#8561)

Contributors declare their overview permissions up front, so a caller who can
read none of them no longer triggers their queries. Trend, recent-activity and
hotspot contributions carry a permission, undeclared needs dashboard:view. The
instances guard is one pre-processor, the default-permission rule one helper,
and the overview blanks the deployment names when every section is withheld.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): withhold deployment metadata from callers who read nothing

Decide 'withheld' from whether the caller can read anything that was returned, and
report every section as Unauthorized for such a caller so install status is not
disclosed. Limit contributor skipping to the overview call; other endpoints invoke
contributors and filter afterwards. Share the permission-header test handler and
tighten the dashboard authorization tests.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): keep runtime status through an instance store outage and decide withheld by permission

The workflow contributor now reads runtime status independently of the instance queries, so a failing
instance store yields the runtime section intact and the instances section Unavailable. The provider
decides "withheld" from the caller's permissions against the declared and supplied permissions, and
reports a readable section whose contributor failed as Unavailable, never Unauthorized.

OverviewPermissions now covers everything a contributor adds to the overview (sections, cards, panels).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(dashboard): merge overview sections by one per-contribution rule

Contributions the caller cannot read are ignored; if any readable contribution failed the section is
Unavailable with no partial totals; otherwise the readable ones are merged; Unauthorized only when the
caller can read none.

…requirements (#8564)

* feat(authorization): declare and record "any of" endpoint permission requirements (#8563)

EndpointPermissionRegistry mapped an endpoint to exactly one permission, so an
endpoint accepting either of two could not be declared or recorded. The four
single-purpose dashboard endpoints worked around it with a FastEndpoints
pre-processor, which left them invisible to registry readers as needing no grant.

RequireAnyPermission((resource, verb), ...) joins RequirePermission on every
endpoint base class. RequirePermission is now its one-permission case, so both
share the evaluator, the inline policy (401 anonymous, 403 without a matching
grant), the registry record and the configure-time SecurityIsEnabled check.

The registry records an EndpointPermissionRequirement (AnyOf, never empty,
duplicates collapsed), read through the new FindRequirement and AllRequirements.
Find and All keep their signatures and still return the permission of every
endpoint requiring exactly one; they report nothing for an "any of" endpoint.
The endpoint coverage gate accepts the new declaration.

workflow-trends, recent-activity, needs-attention and workflow-hotspots declare
RequireAnyPermission(dashboard:view, workflows/instances:view), and
RequireInstancesAccess<T> is deleted. The dashboard tests that disable security
now do so before the host maps its endpoints, as a deployment does, because the
flag is read at configuration time like every RequirePermission endpoint.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(authorization): share the endpoint authorization test host and simplify the permission registry

Extract AuthorizationTestHost into Elsa.Testing.Shared and use it from the
RequireAnyPermission, Dashboard and descriptor catalog authorization tests.
EndpointPermissionRegistry keeps a single dictionary; Find and All are derived
from it and document that they omit any-of endpoints. Pin that an empty
RequireAnyPermission throws with security enabled and disabled. Make
DashboardAccess.InstanceEndpointPermissions a static readonly field.

OutputConverterEndpointTests asserts FindRequirement is null: Find now returns
null for any-of endpoints too, so FindRequirement is the accurate
"no permission" assertion.

… resolver behind (#8565)

* test: stop endpoint host tests leaving a disposed FastEndpoints resolver behind

UseFastEndpoints() points FastEndpoints' process-wide service resolver at the
host's container, and nothing points it away when the host is disposed.
Factory.Create only installs a resolver of its own when none is set, so after
LogoutEndpointTests disposed its host, CreateUserContractTests failed with
ObjectDisposedException depending on test order and parallelism.

Host-based test classes now re-point the resolver at a container that outlives
the run once their host is disposed, and share a non-parallel collection with
the classes that use Factory.Create. Elsa.Workflows.Api.UnitTests had the same
latent failure and gets the same fix.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: share one FastEndpoints collection and reset the resolver before disposal

Review follow-up. The collection definition moves next to the resolver helper
and is linked into both test projects, so the rule is stated once and
Elsa.Workflows.Api.UnitTests no longer files Factory.Create tests under a
collection named for the security flag. Hosts reset the resolver before they
stop, so a failing disposal cannot leave it pointing at the host, and the
resolver is also set when the test assembly loads, so Factory.Create sees the
same resolver whether or not a host ran first.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: pin the FastEndpoints resolver cleanup in Workflows.Api and name the shared namespace honestly

Review follow-up. The linked helper and collection move out of the
Elsa.Testing.Shared namespace, which belongs to the library they cannot live
in, and their docs now say which assemblies the rule covers, that a host also
has to reset the resolver, and how the resolver differs from the unit-test one.
Elsa.Workflows.Api.UnitTests gets the same regression test as Identity, over
both of its host classes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds session-wide refresh-token revocation, permission-filtered dashboard responses, any-of endpoint permission declarations, and authenticated access to selected workflow and resilience catalogs. It also adds persistence migrations, tests, and documentation for these changes.

Changes

Identity session revocation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Session-aware tokens and logout
src/modules/Elsa.Identity/..., test/unit/Elsa.Identity.UnitTests/..., test/integration/Elsa.ExternalAuthentication.IntegrationTests/...
Refresh tokens carry session claims, and refresh flows continue the same session. The authenticated logout endpoint checks the token and caller ownership before revoking that session.
Revocation storage and persistence
src/modules/Elsa.Identity/Services/*, src/modules/Elsa.Identity/Features/*, src/modules/Elsa.Persistence.EFCore/Modules/Identity/*, src/modules/Elsa.Persistence.EFCore.*/Migrations/Identity/*
Memory and EF Core stores add or extend revocations and remove expired records. EF Core mappings and migrations add the revoked-session table and expiry index.
Identity validation and guidance
test/unit/Elsa.Identity.UnitTests/*, test/integration/Elsa.ExternalAuthentication.IntegrationTests/Identity/*, doc/migrations/authorization-model.md, doc/wiki/identity-tenancy-security.md, src/modules/Elsa.Identity/README.md
Tests cover logout, refresh rejection, and store behavior. The guides describe logout behavior, persistence, token lifetimes, and custom issuer requirements.

Endpoint authorization and catalog access

Layer / File(s) Summary
Any-of endpoint permissions
src/common/Elsa.Api.Common/Abstractions/*, src/common/Elsa.Api.Common/Authorization/*, src/common/Elsa.Testing.Shared/Authorization/*, test/unit/Elsa.Api.Common.UnitTests/*
Endpoints can declare multiple acceptable permissions. The registry stores complete requirements, while existing single-permission accessors continue to expose single-permission declarations.
Authenticated catalog routes
src/modules/Elsa.Workflows.Api/Endpoints/..., src/modules/Elsa.Resilience/Endpoints/..., src/modules/Elsa.Workflows.Api/Permissions/WorkflowPermissions.cs, src/modules/Elsa.Resilience/Permissions/ResiliencePermissions.cs
Selected catalog routes now require authentication instead of catalog-specific permissions. Activity refresh remains permission-gated, and workflow-version listing uses definition-view permission.
Authorization tests and guidance
test/unit/Elsa.Workflows.Api.UnitTests/Endpoints/..., test/integration/Elsa.Resilience.IntegrationTests/*, doc/migrations/authorization-model.md, doc/wiki/identity-tenancy-security.md
Tests cover any-of permissions, catalog reads, anonymous rejection, activity refresh, and version-list access. Documentation describes the updated permission declarations and catalog access.

Dashboard permission filtering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dashboard contracts and endpoint wiring
src/modules/Elsa.Dashboard.Abstractions/*, src/modules/Elsa.Dashboard.Api/Authorization/*, src/modules/Elsa.Dashboard.Api/Endpoints/Dashboard/*, src/modules/Elsa.*.Dashboard/Dashboard/*
Dashboard contracts carry permission metadata and read checks. Overview requires authentication, and instance endpoints accept either dashboard or workflow-instance view access.
Provider filtering and validation
src/modules/Elsa.Dashboard.Api/Services/DefaultDashboardProvider.cs, src/modules/Elsa.Dashboard.Api/README.md, test/unit/Elsa.Dashboard.Api.UnitTests/*
The provider filters dashboard data by permission and reports denied or unavailable sections. Tests cover section visibility, contributor behavior, endpoint access, and failures.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to c228b

No actionable merge-blocking risk remains from the reviewed changes.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to c228b

The inspected authentication and ownership checks support the intended access model. The main design risk is operational: session-wide logout requires shared, durable revocation storage, coordinated database upgrades, and token issuers that preserve session identity. Deployment-specific configuration remains unverified.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • observed — The revocation unit is one sign-in session, not every session of a user. Logout checks both user and tenant ownership. Already-issued access tokens remain usable until expiry, so logout does not immediately terminate all authority carried by the session's access tokens.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A holder of a still-valid copied refresh token can bypass process-local logout by refreshing on a node that lacks the revocation, or after the revocation store is lost on restart. Documented legacy-token and lifetime-reduction cases also limit session-wide revocation. These are bounded limitations of the newly added control, not established increases in exposure relative to the base, which lacked session-wide revocation.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Logout accepts an expired refresh token to identify its session, but still performs token validation, requires refresh-token use, and compares its subject and tenant with the authenticated caller. Invalid or unrecognized tokens return an idempotent response without a revocation write; opaque external-authentication tokens remain the broker's responsibility.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Dashboard contributor failures are distinguished from permission denial. For readable overview sources, failure produces an unavailable section rather than presenting partial figures as complete; unauthorized contributions are excluded from the merge.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Consider deployment validation that rejects process-local revocation storage when shared or restart-surviving logout is required, and verifies schema readiness and session propagation by custom issuers. This would make the documented operating requirements enforceable rather than relying only on configuration discipline.

Elsa 3 Code Review: REQUEST_CHANGES + HIGH @ 9ef18c2

Code Review, Round 1/4

Scope: forward-port of the 3.9 identity backend (#8549, #8552, #8556, #8562, #8564, #8565) to main. Base is main @ 78c349b, which is also the merge-base and is still main's tip.

Verdict: the port is faithful. Every source hunk is accounted for, the migrations are correct on all five providers, the merge resolutions are right, and every test suite I ran passes. I am requesting changes for one reason: the PR cannot pass the core merge gate at this head. Greptile scored it 4/5 and raised a valid P2, which also exists on release/3.9.0, and six review threads are unresolved. The code fix is small. The rest is replying to and resolving threads.

Required before approval

  1. Greptile P2: runtime-only callers still query the instance store (DefaultDashboardProvider.cs:214-220, WorkflowDashboardContributor.GetOverviewAsync).
    • Verified. Gating happens per contributor. WorkflowDashboardContributor declares Runtime and WorkflowInstances together.
    • So a caller who holds workflows/runtime:view but not workflows/instances:view selects the contributor. GetWorkflowMetricsAsync then runs one summary query and five count queries, and the provider throws the result away when it withholds the section.
    • Nothing leaks. The cost is wasted store work on every overview load for those callers.
    • Fix: expose what the caller can read on DashboardContext (for example CanRead(DashboardPermission)). The workflow contributor should skip the instance metrics and return the withheld capability when InstancesView isn't readable. Add a provider test asserting zero instance queries for a runtime-only caller.
    • The same code is on release/3.9.0. Land the fix there too, in the same change or a sibling PR, so the two branches stay identical. Greptile needs to reach 5/5 on the new head.
  2. Resolve all review threads. main requires every conversation to be resolved, and six are open:
    • Greptile P2: covered by item 1.
    • CodeRabbit, doc/migrations/authorization-model.md:68: "without any sign" is vague. Say "silently, without warning" (and on release/3.9.0 too), or reply and resolve.
    • Code quality, HttpContextPermissionExtensions.cs:17 ("dereferenced variable may be null"): this is a false positive. The only flagged caller, EndpointSecurity.cs:49, uses (context.Resource as HttpContext)?.GetPermissionEvaluator(), so a null HttpContext never reaches the method. Reply and resolve, or add ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull(context).
    • Code quality, undisposed HttpRequestMessage: three threads, in AuthorizationTestHost.cs:72, ResilienceStrategiesAuthorizationTests.cs:85 and InstalledFeaturesAuthorizationTests.cs:89. They are test-only. Either use using var request = … or reply and resolve.
  3. CI must be green on the final head. At this head, ubuntu-latest and CodeQL Analyze (csharp) were still running.

1. Fidelity

Each port commit is a cherry-pick of its source squash-merge on release/3.9.0. I compared normalized patches (git diff of each source commit against its parent, versus the same for the port commit) and the per-file stats.

Source PR Release commit Port commit Files Result
#8549 installed-features authorization 816b860 1c58d4f 5 Identical patch: every hunk ported.
#8552 session revocation, POST /identity/logout, RevokedSessions migrations 0352fd2 2cbd369 54 Identical patch: every hunk ported.
#8556 designer catalogs readable by any signed-in user bb0b222 466bf07 25 Identical except one hunk-header context line in WorkflowActivationStrategies/List/Endpoint.cs. main's class signature lacks release's unrelated ISerializationTypeRegistry change. Adapted, justified.
#8562 dashboard section gating 80cb2a9 c6ae2c7 26 Identical patch: every hunk ported.
#8564 endpoint authorization coverage / AuthorizationTestHost fd33b0d 14844f7 25 Identical patch: every hunk ported.
#8565 FastEndpoints test isolation 9fbbef9 06e1830 11 Identical patch: every hunk ported.

Net state. In Elsa.Identity, Elsa.Api.Common, Elsa.Dashboard.*, the ConsoleLogs/StructuredLogs/Workflows.Runtime dashboards, Elsa.Resilience, Elsa.UserTasks, Elsa.Testing.Shared, test/unit/Shared and Elsa.Persistence.EFCore/Modules/Identity, the head is byte-identical to the release/3.9.0 tip, apart from these differences:

  • WorkflowActivationStrategies/List/Endpoint.cs: release-only ISerializationTypeRegistry alias work, which correctly did not come across. The pre-existing var response =new spacing is main's.
  • ExternalAuthentication/Extensions/ServiceCollectionExtensions.cs: main registers IIdentityProviderConnectionValidityAssessor as TryAddScoped, release as TryAddSingleton. This is pre-existing main code that the PR doesn't touch.
  • Docs: main's #8571 (B1) and #8567 wording is kept. See the merge resolutions below.

Nothing extra and nothing 3.9-only leaks in.

  • The PR's 121 files are exactly the six source PRs' files plus the merge.
  • The per-TFM Microsoft.AspNetCore.TestHost pins in Directory.Packages.props (8.0.17 / 9.0.17 / 10.0.9) are verbatim from #8549/#8552 and match main's TFMs.
  • main's in-repo Studio already models DashboardCapabilityStatus.Unauthorized, so #8562's new Unauthorized capability doesn't break the Studio client on main.
  • main has no additional IDashboardContributor implementations that #8562's per-section permission contract would have missed.

2. Migrations

IDs. All match the description: Sqlite 20260929170710, SqlServer 20260929170901, PostgreSql 20260929171015, MySql 20260929171114, Oracle 20260929171148.

No collision or reordering. On every provider, RevokedSessions is the newest Identity migration, after PerTenantIdentityUniqueness (2026-08-23). main has no Identity migrations of its own after that one.

  • Sqlite, SqlServer, PostgreSql and MySql each have 8 migrations (Initial → V3_1 → V3_2 → V3_3 → V3_4 → V3_8 → PerTenantIdentityUniqueness → RevokedSessions).
  • Oracle has 5 (V3_3 → … → RevokedSessions).
  • In each provider, IDs are unique and in ordinal order.

Designer files and snapshot.

  • The migration folders for all five providers (migrations, Designer files and IdentityElsaDbContextModelSnapshot) are byte-identical to release/3.9.0. So is the EF Core Identity configuration.
  • Built a design-time harness that creates each provider's IdentityDbContextFactory context and calls Database.HasPendingModelChanges(), without a database. The result was False for all five providers: four on net10, and MySql on net9 because the harness pins Pomelo 9.
  • The snapshot matches the model, and nothing is left un-migrated.

3.9 → main upgrade. The migration IDs and model are identical on both branches. A database migrated through 3.9 already has RevokedSessions in __EFMigrationsHistory, so main applies nothing again. A database coming from an older main gets only the new RevokedSessions migration.

3. Interplay with main

#8567 zero-grant none sentinel. Still holds.

  • DefaultElsaTokenService on the head is main's #8567 version plus #8552's session claims. PermissionClaims(context.Permissions) is still emitted, now followed by claims.AddRange(tokenUseClaims).
  • Other #8567 files are unchanged against main: DefaultApiKeyProvider, AdminApiKeyProvider, the UserTasks resolver, AI and Studio filters, and PermissionNames.
  • #8567's tests run and pass. They sit alongside #8552's session tests in DefaultElsaTokenServiceTests and share CreateOptions().

#8571 B1 docs. Survived. authorization-model.md keeps main's statement that permission changes take effect on the next token refresh or expiry, with stamp-based revalidation planned for 3.10, and adds #8552's logout sections. identity-tenancy-security.md keeps the sentinel paragraph in main's wording ("remains unknown rather than a known empty set") and adds Signing Out.

Fail-closed IdentityPermissionContext and GET /identity/me/permissions. Untouched. The PR changes nothing under src/studio or Elsa.Identity/Endpoints/Me.

Overlap with open #8584 (refresh by sub). A real conflict.

  • A trial merge of #8584's head (8280202) onto this head conflicts in six files:
    • RefreshToken/Endpoint.cs
    • DefaultIdentityRefreshTokenService.cs
    • LegacyRefreshToken.cs (both PRs add this file)
    • DefaultElsaTokenServiceTests.cs
    • DefaultIdentityRefreshTokenServiceTests.cs
    • LegacyIdentityEndpointTests.cs
  • Whichever PR merges second must keep both of these:
    • From #8552: in DefaultIdentityRefreshTokenService, SessionRevoker.GetSession plus the IsRevokedAsync check happen before user resolution. Both refresh paths pass session into IssueTokensAsync(user, session, …), and the endpoint uses SessionRevoker.FindSession.
    • From #8584's Round 3 design: RefreshTokenSubject.FindUserId rejects a missing, blank or conflicting sub/NameIdentifier. The user is resolved by id, and the endpoint answers 401 rather than LoginResponse(false).
  • #8584's 401 matches #8552's documented "same 401 as an invalid token" for revoked sessions, so the contracts agree. Only the code needs merging.
  • The second PR should also run both sets of refresh tests together, so that a revoked session is still refused after the sub lookup.

4. Retro findings (#8574–#8583)

Nothing reintroduced. The code that every issue cites at 9fbbef9 is identical on this head, apart from the #8567 sentinel lines, which came later. All open issues stay exactly as filed, and nothing is partly fixed. Per issue:

  • #8574 (F1, refresh by name): still open on this head (FindByNameAsync(User.Identity!.Name!)). The fix is #8584, so see the overlap above.
  • #8575 (B1, stamp docs): closed, and main's corrected text is preserved.
  • #8576 to #8583: unchanged from release, so their checklists apply to main unchanged:
    • #8576: stamp enforcement
    • #8577: Elsa.Testing.Shared header handler and TestHost dependency, now also on main
    • #8578: registry rebuild throttling
    • #8579: describe-time UI options
    • #8580: maintainability follow-ups
    • #8581: the user-tasks:manager role
    • #8582: role and permission claims in refresh tokens
    • #8583: constant-time admin key comparison

5. Build and tests (local, at 9ef18c2, net10.0)

Project Result
Elsa.Identity.UnitTests 228 / 228 passed (matches claim)
Elsa.Api.Common.UnitTests 108 / 108 passed (matches claim)
Elsa.UserTasks.UnitTests 110 / 110 passed (matches claim)
Elsa.Dashboard.Api.UnitTests 112 / 112 passed
Elsa.Workflows.Api.UnitTests 73 / 73 passed
Elsa.AI.Host.UnitTests 52 / 52 passed
Elsa.ExternalAuthentication.UnitTests 205 / 205 passed
Elsa.Resilience.Core.UnitTests 96 / 96 passed
Elsa.ExternalAuthentication.IntegrationTests (includes the revoked-session store contract tests) 181 / 181 passed
Elsa.Resilience.IntegrationTests 14 / 14 passed

There were no skips and no build errors. Nothing under src/studio changed, so I didn't rerun the Studio suites.

Merge resolutions (git show --cc 9ef18c20). All correct:

  • authorization-model.md and identity-tenancy-security.md combine both sides, as described in section 3.
  • DefaultElsaTokenService.cs keeps #8567's PermissionClaims and #8552's tokenUseClaims and session claims.
  • DefaultElsaTokenServiceTests.cs keeps both test sets.
  • In FastEndpointsResolver.cs, Reset() is main's (identical to release's), and #8565's added remarks are kept.

6. Maintainability

  • Because the port is verbatim, it inherits the open items in #8580. That is acceptable for a forward-port: they are tracked for 3.10 and should be fixed on main, not diverged here.
  • Non-blocking follow-up. main now carries in-repo MongoDB and Dapper Identity persistence under src/extensions/persistence. Neither registers an IRevokedSessionStore, so they fall back to the in-memory store: single node, lost on restart.
    • These projects are IsPackable=false on main today, so nothing ships with the gap yet.
    • Before they ship, they need a persistent store. That means a Mongo collection with an AddOrExtend that keeps the later expiry, and for Dapper a FluentMigrator table.
    • Alternatively, the "custom persistence provider" sentence in identity-tenancy-security.md should name them.
    • Please file a tracking issue.

7. Status at this head

  • CI: license/cla, GitGuardian, solution grouping, package rehearsals, select-tests and CodeQL (actions, java-kotlin, javascript-typescript, python) passed. run-affected-tests was skipped because no imported-source projects changed. ubuntu-latest and CodeQL Analyze (csharp) were still running.
  • Greptile: 4/5 at 16:49 CEST. Core requires 5/5. See required item 1.
  • Threads: 6 unresolved (Greptile 1, CodeRabbit 1, code quality 4). See required item 2. GitHub reports mergeable_state: blocked.

Pass the caller's grants on DashboardContext so the workflow contributor
does not run the summary and count queries that the provider would throw
away for a runtime-only caller. Also reword the issuer migration note and
dispose HttpRequestMessage in the three flagged test helpers.

Omitting WorkflowInstances made the provider treat the section as
unsupplied (Available) instead of withholding it as Unauthorized.

Elsa 3 Code Review: REQUEST_CHANGES + HIGH @ 989065d

Code Review, Round 2/4

Reviewed the delta since 9ef18c2: the two fix commits (5317647, 989065d) and the main merge e289476 (#8584 and #8585). Main tip b6447e3 is fully merged. The refresh-token reconcile is correct, the nits are fixed, and the dashboard fix works and fails closed. One thing blocks the merge: the fix breaks a public record that already shipped. The 3.9 twin of this PR (#8589) has the same problem, and Greptile flags it there. Both branches should take the same fix so later forward-ports stay clean.

Blocking

1. DashboardContext.CanRead breaks a public record that shipped in 3.8.
DashboardContext is public in Elsa.Dashboard.Abstractions and has shipped with five positional parameters since 3.8.0. Adding CanRead as a sixth positional parameter removes the five-argument constructor and the five-value Deconstruct. An extension compiled against 3.8 or 3.9 then throws MissingMethodException at runtime. AGENTS.md says to preserve public APIs unless the task needs the change, and this one doesn't. Make it an init-only property on the record body instead:

public record DashboardContext(
    DashboardRange Range,
    bool IncludeSystem,
    CancellationToken CancellationToken,
    string? TenantId = null,
    string? EnvironmentName = null)
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Whether the caller may read data guarded by a permission, with the dashboard's default rule already applied
    /// (<c>dashboard:view</c> reads everything, and data with no declared permission needs it). It only tells a
    /// contributor which queries it can skip; the provider still filters what the contributor returns.
    /// <c>null</c> means unrestricted.
    /// </summary>
    public Func<DashboardPermission?, bool>? CanRead { get; init; }
}

and in DefaultDashboardProvider.CreateContext, write new(range, includeSystem, cancellationToken, EnvironmentName: environment.EnvironmentName) { CanRead = canRead }. The tests' _context with { CanRead = ... } keeps compiling. I tried this on the 3.9 branch: it builds and all 114 Dashboard tests pass.

2. Document the new contributor hook.
CanRead is a new public extension point, and AGENTS.md requires public API changes to be documented. The doc comment above covers the API. Also add one sentence to the "Modules that add to the dashboard" paragraph in doc/migrations/authorization-model.md: a contributor can check DashboardContext.CanRead to skip queries for data the caller can't read, and null means unrestricted.

3. Drop the GetFindingsAsync guard, which the shipped API never reaches.
GET /dashboard/needs-attention has RequireAnyPermission(dashboard:view, workflows/instances:view). So every caller that reaches GetFindingsAsync through the API can read instances, and CanReadInstances always returns true there. The guard only helps someone calling IDashboardProvider directly, and no test covers it: remove it and the suite still passes, as Greptile showed on #8589. Remove it rather than add a test for a path the shipped API never takes. Keep the overview guard, where the runtime-only case is real.

4. Resolve the new CodeRabbit thread (doc/migrations/authorization-model.md:74, the same sentence in doc/wiki/identity-tenancy-security.md:78). It's right. "At most RefreshTokenLifetime after the upgrade" holds only if the operator doesn't lower the lifetime during the upgrade, because pre-upgrade tokens keep their own exp. Suggested wording: "stay valid until their own expiry, at most the refresh-token lifetime they were issued with". The text was ported unchanged from 3.9, so fix it here and carry the same sentence to 3.9 as a docs follow-up. It's not a 3.9 blocker.

Verified

Dashboard skip (Greptile P2 from Round 1).

  • Fails closed. The skip only saves work. DefaultDashboardProvider passes the same canRead it filters with, and MergeSection still decides readability. So a wrong or missing CanRead can at worst cost extra queries; it can't expose data. null falls back to querying, which matches DashboardAccess.WithDefault(null) (unrestricted).
  • Empty section. For a runtime-only caller, the overview returns Runtime plus an empty WorkflowInstances. MergeSection sees a supplied section the caller can't read and reports it Unauthorized, as documented. Leaving the section out (the first attempt, in 5317647) would have reported Available with zero counts. The inline comment explains this.
  • The tests mean something. I ran both controls on the identical 3.9 code. Reverting the contributor fails both new tests. Leaving the section out fails the provider test and the existing WithFailingInstanceStore_... theory. The store returns 99 for counts, so Running == 0 really shows nothing was queried. The contributor test and the provider test overlap heavily. Keeping only the provider test would be enough, but this is not blocking.
  • Simple enough. One private predicate, one early return, and a context property. Once the property moves off the positional list (item 1), it's easy to maintain.

Nits.

  • The migration note now reads "without warning".
  • using var is on all three HttpRequestMessage helpers: AuthorizationTestHost, ResilienceStrategiesAuthorizationTests, and InstalledFeaturesAuthorizationTests. Each is now async and awaits the send, so the request outlives the call. No caller reuses HttpContent after the send.
  • The HttpContextPermissionExtensions:17 null warning is a false positive. The parameter is a non-nullable HttpContext with nullable reference types enabled solution-wide. The thread reply's reason ("the only caller uses ?.") is wrong, though: there are five callers. EndpointSecurity uses ?., and the other four (DashboardAccess, ConnectionEndpointSupport, and two Workflows.Api endpoints) pass a non-null HttpContext. The conclusion holds. No change is needed.

Refresh-token reconcile with #8584. I compared the PR head with main for all six refresh files.

  • RefreshTokenSubject.cs is identical to main. It returns null when the sub/NameIdentifier is missing, blank, or conflicting.
  • /identity/refresh-token endpoint. It keeps main's FindUserId, which returns 401 on null, and main's FindByIdAsync, which returns 401 if no user is found. It adds SessionRevoker.FindSession and calls IssueTokensAsync(user, session, ...). The revoked-session check runs in the refresh scheme's RejectRevokedSessionAsync (IdentityTokenOptions), so it fails the request before the handler looks up the user.
  • DefaultIdentityRefreshTokenService. IsRevokedAsync runs before RefreshTokenSubject.FindUserId and FindByIdAsync, and the session goes into IssueTokensAsync.
  • DefaultElsaTokenService. It keeps main's sub comment and PermissionClaims, and adds the session claims.
  • Tests. No test method on main is missing from the head. The only removed lines move IssueTokensAsync stubs to the session overload. The head adds the session tests (IssueRefreshTokenCarriesTheSession*, RefreshAsyncContinuesTheSessionOfTheRefreshToken, RefreshAsyncRejectsARefreshTokenOfARevokedSession, RefreshAsyncCarriesALegacyRefreshToken...) alongside #8584's subject tests.
  • #8585 files. No file from #8585 differs between main and the head, so it came in unchanged.

Threads. All six Round 1 threads are resolved. The CodeRabbit thread in item 4 opened after the push and is still unresolved.

Local run. Elsa.Dashboard.Api.UnitTests passes 114/114 at this head.

Merge gate

core needs APPROVE + HIGH, green CI and Greptile 5/5 on the tip.

  • Review: REQUEST_CHANGES + HIGH (items 1–4).
  • CI at 989065d: ubuntu-latest (build and tests) and one CodeQL Analyze (csharp) job were still running when I checked. Everything else passed, and run-affected-tests was skipped.
  • Greptile: 5/5 on 989065d. Greptile raised the same binary-compatibility issue against identical code on #8589 (4/5), so I'm treating it as blocking here too. A fresh Greptile 5/5 is needed on the new tip.
  • Threads: 1 unresolved (CodeRabbit, item 4).

Move CanRead off the positional record parameters so 3.8/3.9 extensions keep the five-argument constructor and Deconstruct. Drop the findings-path store skip, document the hook, and correct the pre-upgrade refresh-token expiry wording.

Elsa 3 Code Review: APPROVE + HIGH @ c228bc2

Code Review, Round 3/4

The only change since Round 2 is c228bc2, a single commit on top of 989065d. Main tip b6447e3 is still fully merged. The commit resolves all four Round 2 items, and the change is the same as the one on #8589 (3.9 review).

Round 2 items

1. Binary compatibility: fixed, checked against the shipped package.
DashboardContext keeps its five positional parameters again, and CanRead is now an init-only property on the record body. I compared the public surface of DashboardContext in three builds: the Elsa.Dashboard.Abstractions 3.8.4 package from nuget.org, release/3.9.0, and this head.

  • 3.8.4 and release/3.9.0 are identical.
  • This head only adds CanRead: the property, get_CanRead, and set_CanRead (init). The constructor (DashboardRange, bool, CancellationToken, string = null, string = null) and Deconstruct(out DashboardRange, out bool, out CancellationToken, out string, out string) are unchanged.
  • Runtime check: I compiled a small consumer against the 3.8.4 DLL; it constructs with five arguments, deconstructs, uses with, and compares. It runs unchanged against this head's DLL. As a control, the same consumer throws MissingMethodException against the old positional-parameter build (5090663).

2. Documentation: done.

  • XML doc: the doc comment on CanRead says it carries the dashboard's default rule, that it only tells a contributor which queries it can skip, that the provider still filters, and that null means unrestricted. That matches the code.
  • Migration guide: the new sentence ("A contributor can check DashboardContext.CanRead to skip queries for data the caller cannot read; null means unrestricted") is accurate.
  • Optional nit: the sentence sits between "declare the permission of their data" and the OverviewPermissions explanation. It would read better at the end of that paragraph, after the reader knows how contributors declare permissions.

3. Findings guard: removed. GetFindingsAsync is back to its original form, and the overview guard stays.

4. Refresh-token wording: fixed in both the migration guide and the wiki. The new text says tokens stay valid "for the remaining time under their issued expiry, which can outlast the current RefreshTokenLifetime if that setting was lowered during the upgrade". That's accurate: pre-upgrade tokens carry no session claims, and the lifetime validator checks only exp. CodeRabbit confirmed and resolved the thread.

What the CanRead default means

  • null is unrestricted, not fail-closed. A null CanRead means "unrestricted": CanReadInstances returns true and the contributor queries, which is the 3.8 behaviour. This is the right default. Anyone still using the old five-argument constructor never sets CanRead, and that includes extensions, custom providers and tests. If null denied, those callers would silently get empty instance sections even when the caller may read them.
  • Where fail-closed lives. Fail-closed comes from DefaultDashboardProvider, not from this property. The provider filters every section with the same canRead it passes in, so a missing or wrong CanRead can only cost queries, never expose data.
  • Construction sites. The only production construction of DashboardContext in core is DefaultDashboardProvider.CreateContext, used by GetOverviewAsync and GetNeedsAttentionAsync, and both set CanRead = canRead. That value is DashboardAccess.WithDefault(query.CanRead).
    • Every dashboard endpoint fills query.CanRead from DashboardAccess.CreateReadCheck(HttpContext).
    • That check returns true for workflows/instances:view and for dashboard:view callers.
    • It also returns true for everyone when endpoint security is disabled.
    • So no caller who may read instances is skipped.
  • Other contexts. The trend, list and hotspot contexts are separate types and don't carry the property.

Tests still catch regressions

The Dashboard suite passes 114/114 on this head. I applied five mutations and confirmed each one is caught:

Mutation What catches it
Revert the contributor guard Both runtime-only tests
Provider stops setting CanRead The provider runtime-only test
Leave out the empty instance section Both runtime-only tests plus the existing failing-store theory
Treat null as deny WorkflowContributor_WithFailingInstanceStore_KeepsRuntimeAndReportsInstancesUnavailable
Skip whenever CanRead is set The failing-store theory

Non-blocking: the two over-hiding mutations are caught only by failing-store tests. Consider adding a provider-level test for a caller with workflows/instances:view that asserts the real counts come through.

Branch parity

  • c228bc2 and #8589's 40d54a4 change the same lines.
  • The three dashboard source files and the two test files are byte-identical between the two heads.
  • The two DLLs expose the same DashboardContext surface.

Threads

All 7 threads are resolved. The HttpContextPermissionExtensions correction is posted and accurate: there are five callers, one uses ?., and four pass a non-null HttpContext.

Merge gate

core needs APPROVE + HIGH, green CI and Greptile 5/5 on the tip.

  • Review: APPROVE + HIGH @ c228bc2.
  • CI at c228bc2: all checks green, including ubuntu-latest (build and tests), all CodeQL jobs, the pack jobs, GitGuardian and CLA. run-affected-tests was skipped, as on earlier rounds. Merge state is CLEAN.
  • Greptile: 5/5 on c228bc2, with no outstanding findings.
  • Threads: 0 unresolved.
  • The gate is met at this head.
