jmaretteandGitHub 9070b537d2 feat(oidc): add RFC 7592 dynamic client management (#12315)
# Which Problems Are Solved

#12313 lets clients register themselves as OIDC applications (RFC 7591),
but a dynamically registered client has no way to manage itself
afterwards:

- The registration response returns no `registration_access_token` and
no `registration_client_uri`, which RFC 7591 and 7592 clients (including
the MCP SDKs) expect in order to manage their own registration.
- There is no way to read back, update or delete a registration without
an operator acting on the client's behalf through the Console or the
Management API. A client that needs to rotate a redirect URI has to ask
a human.

# How the Problems Are Solved

Implement the [OAuth 2.0 Dynamic Client Registration Management Protocol
(RFC 7592)](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7592): `GET`, `PUT`
and `DELETE` on `/oauth/v2/register/{client_id}`, wired through the same
`op.WithSetRouter` hook as the registration endpoint.

## Control plane: the same security settings, no new switch

The management endpoints are gated on the
`DynamicClientRegistrationSettings.enabled` introduced in #12313. No new
setting, no feature flag: a client that may register may manage what it
registered. When registration is disabled the endpoints answer `404`,
exactly as `POST /oauth/v2/register` does.

`allow_unauthenticated` selects the registration mode and does not apply
here, because the registration access token authorizes these endpoints
in both modes.

## Authorization: the registration access token, and nothing else

RFC 7592 §3 defines the credential as the registration access token
issued at registration and bound to a single client, not a user
credential. So a client manages only itself, proving it with the token
it was handed:

| | Registration (`POST`) | Management (`GET` / `PUT` / `DELETE`) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Credential | Access token, or none in open mode | Registration access
token |
| Permission | `project.app.register_dynamic` in token mode | None |

Neither `project.app.register_dynamic`, which governs who may *create*
clients, nor `project.app.write` applies to the management endpoints.
One authorization path per endpoint is easier to reason about than two,
and there is no user identity to check against in the first place.
Operators keep managing dynamically registered clients through the
Management API and the Console, like any other application; they cannot
obtain a client's registration access token, by design.

Status codes: a missing, malformed or non matching token is `401`; a
client that no longer exists is `404`. The token's `client_id` is
checked against the path before any lookup, so a token bound to another
client is rejected without touching the database.

## The token itself

- **Stored like a client secret.** Only its passwap hash is persisted,
through a new
`project.application.config.oidc.registration_token.changed` event; the
plain token leaves the server exactly once, in the response that issues
it.
- **Bound to its client and organization** through authenticated
encryption with the instance key, the same mechanism as refresh tokens.
The opaque token handed to the client encrypts
`client_id:org_id:secret`, so the endpoint recovers the binding before
checking the secret against the stored hash.
- **Verified in O(1)** against the hash on the projection, folded into
the client lookup the handler already does, with a strongly consistent
fallback to the eventstore so a token that was just rotated is accepted
before it is projected.
- **Rotated on update** (RFC 7592 §4.4) and invalidated implicitly when
the client is deleted. A read does not rotate it. Every update rotates,
including one that changes no metadata, so a client always gets a usable
token back.

## Reusing the existing persistence

A small refactor extracts the shared OIDC application creation and
update logic (`pushOIDCApplication` gains a variadic `extraEvents`, and
`oidcApplicationChangeEvent` is lifted out of `UpdateOIDCApplication`),
so the dynamic commands reuse it without the permission check. The
registration token event is pushed atomically with the application, so a
registered client is never left unmanageable.

# Additional Changes

- Setup step **74** adds the `registration_token` column to the
`apps7_oidc_configs` projection, with a reducer for the new event
modelled on the client secret. Applications are not part of the
relational storage projection, so there is no second write path to keep
in sync.
- The registration response (`POST`) now also carries
`registration_access_token` and `registration_client_uri`.
- Docs: a "Manage a registration" section in the dynamic client
registration guide covering the three operations, the authorization
model, token rotation and the new limitations, plus the management
endpoints on the OIDC endpoints page.
- Unit tests for the command layer (issue, verify, rotate, update,
delete), the projection reducer, and the token binding and response
mapping. An integration test covers the full lifecycle (register, read,
update with rotation, delete, read again with `404`), a token bound to
another client, and the endpoints not being served when registration is
disabled. None of the integration calls carries a user access token,
which pins down that the management endpoints require no permission of
their own.

# Additional Context

- Part of the MCP authorization effort in #9810. Follow-up to #12313
(RFC 7591), which is now merged; this branch has been rebased on `main`
and carries the settings and authorization model agreed there.
- **Open question for the review**: the authorization model above
(registration access token only, no operator path through these
endpoints) is the one I proposed when #12313 was reviewed, but it was
never explicitly confirmed. If you would rather have `project.app.write`
also grant access to a client in the operator's own organization, that
is a contained change in `authorizeClientManagement`.
- Rotation is eventually consistent: right after an update the previous
token may keep working for a brief moment until the rotation is
projected, while the new token works immediately through the eventstore
fallback. This matches how ZITADEL validates access tokens, where
revocation is likewise eventually consistent. It is documented in the
guide and asserted as such in the integration test.
- A database migration is introduced for the new projection column. No
proto change and no new feature flag.
- Verified locally: full build, `go vet` including `-tags integration`,
`golangci-lint` with 0 issues, and the unit suites for every touched
package. As before, I cannot run the integration suite here, so CI
remains the check on it.

Livio SpringandGitHub 50d2b26a28 feat: specify login UI version on instance and apps (#9071)
# Which Problems Are Solved

To be able to migrate or test the new login UI, admins might want to
(temporarily) switch individual apps.
At a later point admin might want to make sure all applications use the
new login UI.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Added a feature flag `` on instance level to require all apps to use
the new login and provide an optional base url.
- if the flag is enabled, all (OIDC) applications will automatically use
the v2 login.
  - if disabled, applications can decide based on their configuration
- Added an option on OIDC apps to use the new login UI and an optional
base url.
- Removed the requirement to use `x-zitadel-login-client` to be
redirected to the login V2 and retrieve created authrequest and link
them to SSO sessions.
- Added a new "IAM_LOGIN_CLIENT" role to allow management of users,
sessions, grants and more without `x-zitadel-login-client`.

041af26917 feat(OIDC): add back channel logout (#8837)
# Which Problems Are Solved

Currently ZITADEL supports RP-initiated logout for clients. Back-channel
logout ensures that user sessions are terminated across all connected
applications, even if the user closes their browser or loses
connectivity providing a more secure alternative for certain use cases.

# How the Problems Are Solved

If the feature is activated and the client used for the authentication
has a back_channel_logout_uri configured, a
`session_logout.back_channel` will be registered. Once a user terminates
their session, a (notification) handler will send a SET (form POST) to
the registered uri containing a logout_token (with the user's ID and
session ID).

- A new feature "back_channel_logout" is added on system and instance
level
- A `back_channel_logout_uri` can be managed on OIDC applications
- Added a `session_logout` aggregate to register and inform about sent
`back_channel` notifications
- Added a `SecurityEventToken` channel and `Form`message type in the
notification handlers
- Added `TriggeredAtOrigin` fields to `HumanSignedOut` and
`TerminateSession` events for notification handling
- Exported various functions and types in the `oidc` package to be able
to reuse for token signing in the back_channel notifier.
- To prevent that current existing session termination events will be
handled, a setup step is added to set the `current_states` for the
`projections.notifications_back_channel_logout` to the current position

- [x] requires https://github.com/zitadel/oidc/pull/671

# Additional Changes

- Updated all OTEL dependencies to v1.29.0, since OIDC already updated
some of them to that version.
- Single Session Termination feature is correctly checked (fixed feature
mapping)

# Additional Context

- closes https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8467
- TODO:
  - Documentation
  - UI to be done: https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel/issues/8469

Livio SpringandGitHub d01bd1c51a fix: correctly check app state on authentication (#8630)
# Which Problems Are Solved

In Zitadel, even after an organization is deactivated, associated
projects, respectively their applications remain active. Users across
other organizations can still log in and access through these
applications, leading to unauthorized access.
Additionally, if a project was deactivated access to applications was
also still possible.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Correctly check the status of the organization and related project. 
(Corresponding functions have been renamed to `Active...`)
