Ember Simple Auth on Firefox: authentication throws Error - firefox

I am extending Ember Simple Auth's base authentication class to allow authentication with Google. So far, it works on Safari 8 and Chrome 41 (both on Yosemite) with no errors. However, on Firefox 35, it throws an Error that does not occur on the other browsers. Here is my Google authenticator class:
App.GoogleAuthenticator = SimpleAuth.Authenticators.Base.extend({
// constants for Google API
GAPI_CLIENT_ID: 'the client id',
GAPI_SCOPE: ['email'],
GAPI_TOKEN_VERIFICATION_ENDPOINT: 'https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2/tokeninfo',
// method for scheduleing a single token refresh
// time in milliseconds
scheduleSingleTokenRefresh: function(time) {
var self = this;
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
Ember.run.later(self, function() {
gapi.auth.authorize({
client_id: self.GAPI_CLIENT_ID,
scope: self.GAPI_SCOPE,
immediate: true
}, function(data) {
if (data && !data.error) {
resolve(data);
} else {
reject((data || {}).error);
}
});
}, time);
});
},
// WIP: recursive method that reschedules another token refresh after the previous scheduled one was fulfilled
// usage: scheduleTokenRefreshes(time until token should refresh for the first time, time between subsequent refreshes)
// usage: scheduleTokenRefreshes(time between refreshes)
scheduleTokenRefreshes: function(time1, time2) {
var self = this;
// if there is a time2, schedule a single refresh, wait for it to be fulfilled, then call myself to schedule again
if (!Ember.isEmpty(time2)) {
self.scheduleSingleTokenRefresh(time1)
.then(function() {
self.scheduleTokenRefreshes(time2);
});
// if there isn't a time2, simply schedule a single refresh, then call myself to schedule again
} else {
self.scheduleSingleTokenRefresh(time1)
.then(function() {
self.scheduleTokenRefreshes(time1);
});
}
},
// method that restores the session on reload
restore: function(data) {
var self = this;
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
console.log(data);
if (Ember.isEmpty(data.access_token)) {
reject();
return;
}
// schedule a refresh 15 minutes before it expires or immediately if it expires in < 15
var timeNow = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000);
var expiresAt = +data.expires_at;
var timeDifference = expiresAt - timeNow;
var schedulingDelay = Math.floor(timeDifference - 15 * 60);
schedulingDelay = schedulingDelay < 0 ? 0 : schedulingDelay;
self.scheduleTokenRefreshes(schedulingDelay * 1000, 45 * 60);
resolve(data);
});
},
// method that authenticates
authenticate: function() {
var self = this;
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
gapi.auth.authorize({
client_id: self.GAPI_CLIENT_ID,
scope: self.GAPI_SCOPE
}, function(data) {
if (data && !data.error) {
// schedule a refresh in 45 minutes
var schedulingDelay = 45 * 60;
self.scheduleTokenRefreshes(schedulingDelay * 1000);
resolve(data);
} else {
reject((data || {}).error);
}
});
});
},
// method that logs the user out and revokes the token
invalidate: function(data) {
var self = this;
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
// send a GET request to revoke the token
Ember.$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/revoke?token=' + self.get('session.access_token'),
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'jsonp'
})
.done(function(successData) {
resolve(successData);
})
.fail(function(error) {
reject(error);
});
});
}
});
When the popup window closes after a successful login on Google's end, this error appears on Firefox's console:

The most confounding thing is that this only appears on Firefox. Is it a bug in Ember Simple Auth or Ember? How do I fix it?

I do not know about only Firefox throwing an error (I've had a similar error with Chrome 40), but there is a bug in ember-simple-auth 0.7.2 with Ember 1.9 that prohibits sending an actual error response in the authenticate method in the authenticator.
If you return reject() in the rejection function of authenticate it will not throw an additional error. This will however not propagate the errorstatus or message, so I consider this a bug.
A work-around was proposed on github about this issue by setting Ember.onerror=Ember.K temporarily so additional errors will not be propagated, although it will propagate the original authenticate rejection with the error-status.
The issue in the github repo only mentions problems with testing this, but I've had this problem in normal code.
see: https://github.com/simplabs/ember-simple-auth/issues/407

Turns out the error was on the resolve part of the authenticate method. Here is what fixed it:
App.GoogleAuthenticator = SimpleAuth.Authenticators.Base.extend({
authenticate: function() {
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
gapi.auth.authorize({
client_id: 'the client id',
scope: ['the scopes'],
}, function(data) {
if (data && !data.error) {
resolve({
access_token: data.access_token // !! passing the entire 'data' object caused the error somehow
});
} else {
reject((data || {}).error);
}
});
});
},
// ...
});
I'm still not quite sure why this caused the error. Perhaps the Google API's response (in its entirety) is somehow incompatible with Ember Simple Auth.

Fitbit URL callback giving a response of NULL

I'm having trouble getting a response from a callback uri and I would really appreciate any help you could give me.
I am trying to use the Fitbit API which requires you to use a callback url to get an Auth Code.
Workflow:
1. Go to Fitbit url to get user to allow the app access to their personal data.
2. User agrees to the conditions
3. User gets redirected to my API
4. The API returns the code from (Code is located in URL and I can access it)
5. I console.log the code out to verify it
6. API returns the code
7. I work with code then exchanging it for an access token.
The problem is that I don't return the code (Or anything )when I return to the app even though I can console.log it on the API. The response I get is NULL
Here is the URL:
url = "https://www.fitbit.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=https://REDIRECT_URL&scope=activity%20heartrate%20location%20nutrition%20profile%20settings%20sleep%20social%20weight&expires_in=604800";
I then open the URL in the InAPPBrowser successfully:
if (url !== "") {
const canOpen = await Linking.canOpenURL(url)
if (canOpen) {
try {
const isAvailable = await InAppBrowser.isAvailable()
if (isAvailable) {
const result =InAppBrowser.open(url, {
// iOS Properties
dismissButtonStyle: 'done',
preferredBarTintColor: 'gray',
preferredControlTintColor: 'white',
// Android Properties
showTitle: true,
toolbarColor: '#6200EE',
secondaryToolbarColor: 'black',
enableDefaultShare: true,
}).then((result) => {
console.log("Response:",JSON.stringify(result))
Linking.getInitialURL().then(url => {
console.log("Tests: ",url)
this._setTracker(url as string);
});
})
} else Linking.openURL(url)
} catch (error) {
console.log("Error: ",error)
}
}
}
From here the URL opens successfully.
Here is the API now which is done in Typescript on AWS serverless and Lambda
export const handler: APIGatewayProxyHandler = async (event, _context, callback) =>{
let provider = event.path
//prints code
let x = event.queryStringParameters
console.log("Code: ",x)
const response = {
statusCode: 200,
body: "Success"
};
return response;
}
Please let me know if further detail is required?
Thank you!
Right so it turns out what I was doing was correct apart from the response should have been 301 which is a redirect response.
const response= {
statusCode: 301,
headers: {
"location": `app://CALLBACK RESPONSE ADDRESS?type=${provider}`
},
body: "Boom"
}

Resending a graphql mutation after re-authenticating using Apollo's useMutation

I have an issue where we're using apollo client and specifically the useMutation react hook to perform mutation calls to our GraphQL Server.
At certain times, the server may return a 401 unauthorized response - at which point, we can make a call to special endpoint which re-authenticates the client and refreshes the cookie/token whatever.
I want to be able to re-run the same mutation again once the client is re-authenticated. So basically I would like to know if it is possible to do the following:
useMutation --> Receive 401 Unauthorized --> call to refresh token --> rerun same initial mutation
This is how our useMutation looks like:
const [mutationFunction, { data, ...rest }] = useMutation(query, {
onError(_err: any) {
const networkError = error?.networkError as any;
if (networkError?.statusCode === 401 && !refreshFailed) {
// eslint-disable-next-line prefer-destructuring
loading = true;
error = undefined;
fetch('/authentication/refresh', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(token => {
localStorage.setItem(jwtLocalStorageKey, token);
// re fetch here
})
.catch(() => {
refreshFailed = true;
});
} else {
showAlert(_err.message, 'error');
}
}
});
and this is how we call it currently:
const {
mutationFunction: updateTournamentUserMutation,
loading: updateTournamentUserLoading,
error: updateTournamentUserError,
data: updateTournamentUserData
} = useMutationHook(gqlUpdateTournamentUser);
updateTournamentUserMutation({ variables: { input } });
Because we're using hooks and the way we're using it above, I'm not entirely sure how we can save or reuse the same data that is initially sent in the first mutation (that is the mutation parameters)
Is it possible to do so using the current way we're doing it?

Parse On Buddy Logout User

I am migrating an application from parse.com to buddy.com. One of the caveats of the migration was that Parse.User.current() is no longer available on buddy.com, instead you have to get the user and session token from the request itself: https://github.com/ParsePlatform/Parse-Server/wiki/Compatibility-with-Hosted-Parse#no-current-user
The application I am migrating has a logoutUser method that I am attempting to migrate:
Parse.Cloud.define("logoutUser", function(request, response) {
Parse.User.logOut().then(
function onSuccess(result){
response.success(result);
},
function onError(error) {
response.error(error);
}
)
});
now I am attempting to do this in the new style, but am receiving an error. (NOTE: This is cloud code not a nodejs environment)
{
"code":"500",
"error":"Error: There is no current user user on a node.js server environment."
}
New implementation:
function logoutUser(request, response) {
var user = request.user;
var sessionToken = user.getSessionToken();
Parse.User.logOut({ sessionToken }).then(
function onSuccess(result){
response.success(result);
},
function onError(error) {
response.error(error);
}
)
}
Parse.Cloud.define("logoutUser", function(request, response) {
logoutUser(request, response);
});
Suggestions on how to correctly log out users in the Parse on Buddy cloud code?
You could fetch user's session or sessions and delete it / them:
var query = new Parse.Query("_Session");
query.descending('createdAt');
query.equalTo('user', {__type:"Pointer", className:"_User", objectId:"idhere"});
query.first({
useMasterKey: true
}).then(function(session) {
var sessions = [];
sessions.push(session);
Parse.Object.destroyAll(sessions);
}, function (err) {
console.log("Internal error " + err);
});
OR for more tokens you could use find instead of first like:
var query = new Parse.Query("_Session");
query.equalTo('user', {__type:"Pointer", className:"_User", objectId:"idhere"});
query.find({
useMasterKey: true
}).then(function(sessions) {
Parse.Object.destroyAll(sessions);
}, function (err) {
console.log("Internal error " + err);
});
The above will mostly delete or tokens related to the given user. If you wish to delete only tokens used for login, and not for signup or upgrade, then you could put into your query:
query.equalTo('createdWith', { action: 'login', authProvider: 'password'});
As far as i know, deleting a user's last used for login token, then he is logged-out.
To add to the above, if you pass up the user's session key to the Cloud Code function via the X-Parse-Session-Token header, you can use the populated request.user object in the session query directly, instead of the user's ID.

Ajax request with CORS redirect fails in IE11

I'm trying to make an ajax request to a resource on the same domain. Under certain circumstances the request gets redirected(303) to an external resource. The external resource supports CORS.
In browsers like Chrome, Firefox or Safari the request succeeds.
In IE11 the request fails with error:
SCRIPT 7002: XMLHttpRequest: Network Error 0x4c7, The operation was canceled by the user
The ajax request is made with jQuery:
$.ajax({
url: "/data",
type: "POST",
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json;charset=UTF-8",
data: JSON.stringify({name: 'John Doe'})
}).done(function () {
console.log('succeeded');
}).fail(function () {
console.log('failed');
});
I've build a little example which demonstrates the problem. You could see the code here.
w/o redirect
w/ redirect
Is there a way to solve this problem? What am I missing?
In the initial definition of the CORS-standard, redirects after a successful CORS-preflight request were not allowed.
IE11 implements this (now outdated) standard.
Since August 2016, this has changed, and all major browsers now support it (Here's the actual pull request).
I'm afraid to support <=IE11 you'll have to modify your server-side code as well to not issue a redirect (at least for <=IE11).
Part 1) Server-side (I'm using node.js express here):
function _isIE (request) {
let userAgent = request.headers['user-agent']
return userAgent.indexOf("MSIE ") > 0 || userAgent.indexOf("Trident/") > 0
}
router.post('data', function (request, response) {
if (_isIE(request)) {
// perform action
res.set('Content-Type', 'text/plain')
return res.status(200).send(`${redirectionTarget}`)
} else {
// perform action
response.redirect(redirectionTarget)
}
})
Part 2 Client-side
Note: This is pure Javascript, but you can easily adapt it to your jQuery/ajax implementation.
var isInternetExplorer = (function () {
var ua = window.navigator.userAgent
return ua.indexOf("MSIE ") > 0 || ua.indexOf("Trident/") > 0
})()
function requestResource (link, successFn, forcedRedirect) {
var http
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
http = new XMLHttpRequest()
} else if (window.XDomainRequest) {
http = new XDomainRequest()
} else {
http = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
}
http.onreadystatechange = function () {
var OK = 200
if (http.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
if (http.status === OK && successFn) {
if (isInternetExplorer && !forcedRedirect) {
return requestResource(http.responseText, successFn, true)
} else {
successFn(http.responseText)
}
}
}
}
http.onerror = http.ontimeout = function () {
console.error('An error occured requesting '+link+' (code: '+http.status+'): '+http.responseText)
}
http.open('GET', link)
http.send(null)
}

Parse for javascript - "error 209 invalid session token" when signing up a new user

I wrote a simple function in an angularJS application for signing up new users:
$scope.registerUser = function(username, password) {
var user = new Parse.User();
user.set("username", username);
user.set("email", username);
user.set("password", password);
user.signUp(null, {
success: function(result) {
console.log(result);
$scope.registerUserSuccess = true;
$scope.registerUserError = false;
$scope.registerUserSuccessMessage = "You have successfully registered!";
$scope.$apply();
$timeout(function(){
$state.go("user");
}, 1000);
},
error: function(user, error) {
$scope.registerUserError = true;
$scope.registerUserSuccess = false;
$scope.registerUserErrorMessage = "Error: [" + error.code + "] " + error.message;
$scope.$apply();
}
});
Initially it worked fine, but when I deleted all the users directly through Parse.com, I can't sign up new users using this function anymore. Each time I get error 209 invalid session token. Here's a screenshot of my Parse database:
I've googled the error message and the solution is always to log out the current user. However, if no users exist this isn't an action I can possibly take.
So I would not only like to fix this problem, but also know how to prevent it in the future so my application can be used safely.
Edit: I created a user directly in Parse.com, wrote a function to log in that user, but got the same error. I am completely stuck until this session issue is resolved.
delete all your session tokens, and anything else Parse related really, from local storage:
if needed turn off legacy session tokens, and follow migration tutorial from scratch:
I encountered this same error when building apps with react native using back4app. to clear anything Parse related, from local storage:
add
import { AsyncStorage } from "react-native";
in to the page and Use
AsyncStorage.clear();
See Example Below:
import { AsyncStorage } from "react-native";
import Parse from "parse/react-native";
// Initialize Parse SDK
Parse.setAsyncStorage(AsyncStorage);
Parse.serverURL = "https://parseapi.back4app.com"; // This is your Server URL
Parse.initialize(
"APPLICATION_ID_HERE", // This is your Application ID
"JAVASCRIPT_KEY_HERE" // This is your Javascript key
);
.........
_handleSignup = () => {
// Pass the username, email and password to Signup function
const user = new Parse.User();
user.set("username", "username);
user.set("email", "email");
user.set("password", "password");
user.signUp().then(user => {
AsyncStorage.clear();
if (condition) {
Alert.alert(
"Successful!",
"Signin Successful! Log in to your account.",
[
{
text: "Proceed",
onPress: () => {
//in this example, i navigated back to my login screen
this.props.navigation.navigate("LoginScreen");
}
}
],
{ cancelable: false }
);
}
})
.catch(error => {
Alert.alert("" +error);
});
};
