OF-2534: Bind2 fail authentication when binding fails, and let inline handlers report failure - #3478
Conversation
Adds two defaulted methods to Bind2InlineHandler. A handler that reports itself unavailable is neither advertised in the inline feature list nor invoked for a request naming its namespace. A handler can now add a protocol-defined failure response when its request could not be processed, distinguishing a handler that returned false from one that threw. Both defaults preserve current behaviour, so existing handlers are unaffected. Preparation for XEP-0198 inline support, which needs both.
A bind conflict or exception still produced a <success/> without <bound/>, followed by stream features, leaving the client believing it had authenticated into a session with no resource. It now receives <failure/> carrying temporary-auth-failure, and the session is not marked authenticated. Also moves setStatus(AUTHENTICATED) ahead of processFeatureRequests, so that an inline feature handler observes a bound, authenticated session.
…) invocations There are trivial changes that won't introduce functional changes.

Bind2 processing skips disabled handlers, filters advertised features, invokes failure callbacks, and isolates callback exceptions. Resource generation uses explicit HMAC configuration and updated fallback construction. SASL2 authentication now returns a temporary authentication failure when resource binding fails. Successful binding authenticates the session before inline feature processing. Tests cover handler availability, failure responses, callback exceptions, authentication failures, and session ordering.

🟡 Changes recommended
The SASL2+Bind2 path can leave a session in AUTHENTICATED state even after sending <failure/> when an exception occurs, risking inconsistent server-side session state.
Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.
Pull request overview
This PR adjusts SASL2+Bind2 authentication and Bind2 inline feature handling to ensure that resource-binding failures are treated as authentication failures, and to let inline handlers dynamically advertise/execute and report protocol-defined failure details (in preparation for XEP-0198 inline support).
Changes:
- Make SASL2+Bind2 authentication fail (no
<success/>/ stream features) when Bind2 resource binding cannot be completed. - Extend Bind2 inline handlers with
isEnabled()(dynamic availability) andhandleFailure()(failure response enrichment), and invoke these appropriately. - Add/adjust tests covering bind failure behavior, handler availability, and handler failure reporting.

- In the SASL2+Bind2 completion-stage catch block, the session can remain in AUTHENTICATED state even though a is sent (because status is set before subsequent operations that can throw, and the catch does not restore it). This can leave the server-side session state inconsistent with the outcome reported to the client.
if (!bound) {
Log.warn("Unable to bind resource '{}' for session '{}' during SASL2+Bind2 authentication. Bind result: {}", resource, clientSession, result);
SaslOutcome.authenticationFailed(clientSession, Failure.TEMPORARY_AUTH_FAILURE, true);
return;
}
final Element success = SaslOutcome.buildSasl2SuccessElement(successData, authorizationIdentity, resource, finalFastToken);
clientSession.setStatus(Session.Status.AUTHENTICATED);
bind2Request.processFeatureRequests(clientSession, success);
SessionEventDispatcher.dispatchEvent(clientSession, SessionEventDispatcher.EventType.resource_bound);
// Deliver stream features now that <success/> has been sent.
final Element features = DocumentHelper.createElement(QName.get("features", "stream", "http://etherx.jabber.org/streams"));
final List<org.dom4j.Element> specificFeatures = clientSession.getAvailableStreamFeatures();

for (final org.dom4j.Element feature : specificFeatures) {
features.add(feature);
}
}
// Deliver these here.
clientSession.deliverRawText(success.asXML());

} catch(Exception e) {

- The debug log message is now also used when a handler exists but is disabled (because of the new
handler.isEnabled()check), which makes the message misleading during troubleshooting.
if (handler != null && handler.isEnabled()) {
try {
if (!handler.handleElement(clientSession, bound, element)) {
Log.info("Handler for namespace {} failed to process element", namespace);
invokeFailureHandler(clientSession, bound, element, null, handler, namespace);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.warn("Error processing element with namespace: {}", namespace, e);
invokeFailureHandler(clientSession, bound, element, e, handler, namespace);
}
} else {
Log.debug("No handler registered for namespace: {}", namespace);
// We don't fail here because there's no obvious way we could fail.

Bind2Request currently evaluates isEnabled() without exception isolation (and logs disabled handlers as “not registered”), which can let plugin handler failures break authentication/feature advertisement.
Once you've addressed the issues Copilot identified, you can request another Copilot review.

invokeFailureHandleris documented as suppressing any exception thrown by the failure-handler, but it currently catches onlyException. A plugin handler throwing anError(or other non-ExceptionThrowable) would still escape and could impact authentication flow. CatchingThrowablehere matches the surrounding handler-invocation robustness.
try {
handler.handleFailure(clientSession, bound, element, cause);
} catch (Exception ex) {
Log.warn("Error invoking failure handler after failing to process element with namespace: {}", namespace, ex);
}
xmppserver/src/main/java/org/jivesoftware/openfire/net/Bind2Request.java:144
featureElement()now callshandler.isEnabled(), but this is unguarded. Because handlers are plugin-provided, an exception fromgetNamespace()orisEnabled()would break stream feature generation for the entire session. Consider isolating handler failures here (log + skip the handler), similar to how request processing isolates handler failures.
for (Bind2InlineHandler handler : elementHandlers.values()) {
if (!handler.isEnabled()) {
continue;
}
Element var = bind2inline.addElement("feature");

…lure. This removes a double-invocation path: `handleFailure(...)` is now only called through `invokeFailureHandler(...)`, and the outer catch no longer re-calls it after a failure inside `handleFailure`. Slightly tunes down the log level of associated errors.

LGTM.
Below, I've nitpicked about a test. Feel free to ignore it.
Preparation for XEP-0198 inline support, but these changes stand on their own. I've split this off from #3417 while I was trying to rebase that on the latest version of HEAD (which includes considerable refactoring).
Please review individual commit messages, but basically:
