# Which Problems Are Solved
Opaque tokens now use authenticated encryption.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- Upgrade zitadel/oidc to v3.47
- Copy crypto implementation for refresh and session tokens (internal to
zitadel)
- Added config that allows validating old tokens for gradual roll-out
# Additional Changes
- Set NX cache for `integration-test-build` to `false`, working on a
seperate fix.
# Additional Context
- closes#11315

# Which Problems Are Solved
Zitadel did not provide easy correlation between errors, logs, traces
and metrics. The configuration for those instrumentations was also not
consistent, with some supporting different exporters then others.
Implementation and parsing of config was also spaghettified over
multiple packages, with awkward parsing and inconsistent naming of
options.
# How the Problems Are Solved
All telemetry is now merged under the name "instrumentation". Why?
1. We thought it was a good idea in the past to call the milestone
exporter `Telemtry` in the runtime config. Calling this `TelemetryV2`
looks weird.
2. Not everything is a meter and not everything is sent (tele...).
3. It's also
[defined](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/instrumentation/) as
such by the OTEL documentation.
## New features
- Adds structured, context based logging with trace-ID awareness
- Static log fields are added to the context, such as service and
request path
- Static log fields are injected in each logline emitted by the
application
- Structured logs can also be send to an otel exporter
- Structured logs can be printed to StdErr in text and JSON format
- Error sinks make sure every error is logged at the correct level:
- Warnings for client side errors (HTTP 400 range, Invalid request etc)
- Error for server side errors (Internal server errors)
- Metrics can now also be send to a OTEL collector. (previously they
could only be scraped from `/debug/metrics` with prometheus)
## Exporters
This change adds all the exporters supported by OTEL upstream and some
google specific exporters for our cloud deployment.
- StdOut / StdErr: all instrumentations
- OTEL gRPC / HTTP: all instrumentations
- Google: all instrumentations except logging
- Prometheus (pull-based): only metrics
The exception is profiling, which only supports the google exporting due
to lack of support by OTEL upstream.
## Configuration and structure
- All instrumentation is moved into the new `backend/v3/instrumentation`
package. It reuses configuration types, so both code and runtime
configuration are easier to understand.
- The `internal/telemetry` packages are removed.
- Instrumentation is started with a single function and a proper
shutdown function is now provided.
- Legacy configuration is still parsed from the runtime config, as long
as the new configuration is disabled. This allows backporting this
feature to v4 without breaking existing configurations.
# Additional Changes
- Devcontainer: set `$PATH` variable so installed go binaries can be run
individually, without NX.
- NX: install GCI tool to fix imports

# Which Problems Are Solved
We noticed logging where 500: Internal Server errors were returned from
the token endpoint, mostly for the `refresh_token` grant. The error was
thrown by the database as it received non-UTF8 strings for token IDs
Zitadel uses symmetric encryption for opaque tokens, including refresh
tokens. Encrypted values are base64 encoded. It appeared to be possible
to send garbage base64 to the token endpoint, which will pass decryption
and string-splitting. In those cases the resulting ID is not a valid
UTF-8 string.
Invalid non-UTF8 strings are now rejected during token decryption.
# How the Problems Are Solved
- `AESCrypto.DecryptString()` checks if the decrypted bytes only contain
valid UTF-8 characters before converting them into a string.
- `AESCrypto.Decrypt()` is unmodified and still allows decryption on
non-UTF8 byte strings.
- `FromRefreshToken` now uses `DecryptString` instead of `Decrypt`
# Additional Changes
- Unit tests added for `FromRefreshToken` and
`AESCrypto.DecryptString()`.
- Fuzz tests added for `FromRefreshToken` and
`AESCrypto.DecryptString()`. This was to pinpoint the problem
- Testdata with values that resulted in invalid strings are committed.
In the pipeline this results in the Fuzz tests to execute as regular
unit-test cases. As we don't use the `-fuzz` flag in the pipeline no
further fuzzing is performed.
