fix: skip duplicate key-auth credentials at reconcile time - #491
shreemaan-abhishek wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
The Consumer webhook checks key-auth keys only at admission, and skips a credential whose Secret does not exist yet. A Secret created after its Consumer therefore published a key another Consumer on the same Gateway already used. The reconciler now drops a key-auth credential whose key an older Consumer on the same Gateway publishes, and reports it on the status. Keys are found through hashed field indexes on Consumers and Secrets, and Consumer and Secret changes requeue Consumers sharing a key so a skipped credential returns once the key is free.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe Consumer controller now indexes key-auth keys, requeues Consumers affected by Consumer or Secret changes, and filters duplicate credentials before publishing. It keeps the key on the earlier Consumer on the same Gateway, using creation time and namespace/name to determine order. ChangesKey-auth duplicate handling

Full details: E2e Test Quality ReviewExplanation Blocking: the PR adds only unit tests. The changed tests use a controller-runtime fake client and call Resolution Add an E2E test that creates a Gateway, an older Consumer, and a newer Consumer with a key-auth Secret reference through the Kubernetes API; create the Secret after the Consumer; verify the reconciled provider/data-plane credentials and skipped status; then delete or change the older owner and verify the skipped Consumer is requeued and published. Add E2E cases for denied cross-namespace Secret references and invalid or empty key values. Add an update-event test and implementation that considers both old and new Consumer/Secret keys, so releasing an old key requeues affected Consumers.

Requeue Consumers when a ReferenceGrant changes.
processSpec and usesKeyAuthSecret apply CheckConsumerSecretRef to cross-namespace Secret references. A ReferenceGrant change can therefore change whether a key participates in duplicate ownership. The Consumer controller watches Consumers and Secrets, but not ReferenceGrants.
A removed grant can leave a previously published credential active. An added grant can leave the referencing Consumer unpublished or leave another Consumer publishing a key that should now be owned by the newly permitted Consumer. Add a gated ReferenceGrant watch and map each affected Consumer event to that Consumer and the Consumers sharing its key.

Fixes FINDING-047 (api7/rfcs#181). Upstream counterpart: apache/apisix-ingress-controller#2900 (identical change).
Type of change:
What this PR does / why we need it:
The Consumer webhook rejects a key-auth key that another Consumer on the same Gateway already uses, but only at admission. When a credential's
secretRefpoints to a Secret that does not exist yet, the key is empty and the check skips it. Creating the Secret afterwards fires no Consumer webhook, and the reconciler published the key with no check, so two Consumers on one Gateway could end up sharing a key-auth key.This PR moves the check into the reconciler, which sees every change:
Provider.Update, the reconciler drops any key-auth credential whose key an older Consumer on the same Gateway publishes. "Older" is by creation time, with namespace/name as the tie-break, so exactly one Consumer keeps the key, matching the webhook's first-come behavior. The Consumer stays published with its other credentials, and its status reportsN key-auth credential(s) skipped: key already used by another Consumer.data.key). Index values are SHA-256 hashes of the key, so plaintext keys never land in the index.Consumers with unique keys reconcile exactly as before.
