This allows overriding the default value for `include_content`. Setting
this to false allows homeserver admins to ensure that message content
isn't sent in the clear through third party servers.
Using `docker_container` with a `cap_drop` argument requires
Ansible >=2.7.
We want to support older versions too (2.4), so we either need to
stop invoking it with `cap_drop` (insecure), or just stop using
the module altogether.
Since it was suffering from other bugs too (not deleting containers
on failure), we've decided to remove `docker_container` usage completely.
`matrix_synapse_no_tls` is now implicit, so we've gotten rid of it.
The `homeserver.yaml.j2` template has been synchronized with the
configuration generated by Synapse v0.99.1 (some new options
are present, etc.)
For consistency with all our other listeners,
we make this one bind on the `::` address too
(both IPv4 and IPv6).
Additional details are in #91 (Github Pull Request).
This reverts commit 0dac5ea508.
Relying on pyOpenSSL is the Ansible way of doing things, but is
impractical and annoying for users.
`openssl` is easily available on most servers, even by default.
We'd better use that.
We run containers as a non-root user (no effective capabilities).
Still, if a setuid binary is available in a container image, it could
potentially be used to give the user the default capabilities that the
container was started with. For Docker, the default set currently is:
- "CAP_CHOWN"
- "CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE"
- "CAP_FSETID"
- "CAP_FOWNER"
- "CAP_MKNOD"
- "CAP_NET_RAW"
- "CAP_SETGID"
- "CAP_SETUID"
- "CAP_SETFCAP"
- "CAP_SETPCAP"
- "CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE"
- "CAP_SYS_CHROOT"
- "CAP_KILL"
- "CAP_AUDIT_WRITE"
We'd rather prevent such a potential escalation by dropping ALL
capabilities.
The problem is nicely explained here: https://github.com/projectatomic/atomic-site/issues/203
