mod_http_oauth2: Fix treatment of 'redirect_uri' parameter in code flow
It's optional and the one stored in the client registration should
really be used instead. RFC 6749 says an URI provided as parameter MUST
be validated against the stored one but does not say how.
Given that the client needs their secret to proceed, it seems fine to
leave this for later.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Merged' - 'Type-Auth' summary: LDAP authentication module ... Introduction ============ This is a Prosody authentication plugin which uses LDAP as the backend. Dependecies =========== This module depends on [LuaLDAP](https://github.com/lualdap/lualdap) for connecting to an LDAP server. Configuration ============= Copy the module to the prosody modules/plugins directory. In Prosody's configuration file, under the desired host section, add: ``` {.lua} authentication = "ldap" ldap_base = "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" ``` Further LDAP options are: Name Description Default value --------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------- ldap\_base LDAP base directory which stores user accounts **Required field** ldap\_server Space-separated list of hostnames or IPs, optionally with port numbers (e.g. "localhost:8389") `"localhost"` ldap\_rootdn The distinguished name to auth against `""` (anonymous) ldap\_password Password for rootdn `""` ldap\_filter Search filter, with `$user` and `$host` substituted for user- and hostname `"(uid=$user)"` ldap\_scope Search scope. other values: "base" and "onelevel" `"subtree"` ldap\_tls Enable TLS (StartTLS) to connect to LDAP (can be true or false). The non-standard 'LDAPS' protocol is not supported. `false` ldap\_mode How passwords are validated. `"bind"` ldap\_admin\_filter Search filter to match admins, works like ldap\_filter **Note:** lua-ldap reads from `/etc/ldap/ldap.conf` and other files like `~prosody/.ldaprc` if they exist. Users wanting to use a particular TLS root certificate can specify it in the normal way using TLS\_CACERT in the OpenLDAP config file. Modes ===== The `"getpasswd"` mode requires plain text access to passwords in LDAP and feeds them into Prosodys authentication system. This enables more secure authentication mechanisms but does not work for all deployments. The `"bind"` mode performs an LDAP bind, does not require plain text access to passwords but limits you to the PLAIN authentication mechanism. Compatibility ============= Works with 0.8 and later.
