WorkloadVerify (api.Service.WorkloadVerify) was permanently unwired: both
/v1/servers/{id}/register and /v1/servers/{id}/result always 503, because
the only design considered so far was verifying a Kubernetes-projected
service-account JWT (server/workload/jwt.go), which needs a live cluster's
TokenReview/JWKS endpoint to validate against safely -- something this
sandbox cannot do without guessing at a trust boundary.
The API layer doesn't actually require that specific mechanism. serverMutation
only compares WorkloadBinding.ServerID and .MatchID (server/api/service.go);
AdvanceServerRegistration only uses .MatchID/.ServerID/.AllocationID. Nothing
downstream needs Namespace/ServiceAcct/PodUID/GameServerUID populated.
This adds a self-contained alternative: a short-lived, HMAC-signed token the
control plane mints and verifies with a secret only it holds (server/workload/
signed_token.go), the same trust model domain.SessionStore already uses for
player sessions elsewhere in this codebase. It needs no cluster to verify --
signature + expiry is fully self-contained and unit-testable.
The design's soundness rests on the delivery channel, not the crypto: the
token is meant to reach the allocated GameServer via the same Agones
GameServerAllocation annotation channel allocation.go already uses for
match-id/allocation-id, readable only by that pod's own local SDK sidecar. A
caller presenting this token has already proven, via that channel, that it is
the pod Agones allocated. (Wiring the actual annotation delivery -- extending
agones.Client.Allocate and the supervisor's token source -- is a separate,
follow-up change; this commit lands the verification core it depends on.)
store.AllocationBindingStillValid adds defense-in-depth on top of signature
and expiry: it cross-checks the token's claims against the durable
allocations table (append-only, never leaves 'ALLOCATED'), so a validly-signed
token naming an allocation that was never recorded -- or a real allocation id
paired with a mismatched match/server -- is still rejected.
api.WorkloadVerifierFromSignedToken wires the two together and is now plugged
into cmd/control-plane (new --workload-secret / COSMIC_CLASH_WORKLOAD_SECRET
flag; a startup warning is logged if it's left unset, since the route then
stays 503 exactly as before) and cmd/testkit-api (fixed test secret, since
that binary is test-only already).
Verified: new unit tests in server/workload (signature tamper, wrong secret,
expiry boundary, malformed input) and a new Postgres integration suite in
server/api (real allocation row, real signed token, acceptance / unknown-
allocation rejection / mismatched-triple rejection / the previously-503
Service.WorkloadVerify field itself) -- both run clean with -race across
multiple passes against a live postgres:17-alpine container. Full
`go build ./... && go vet ./... && gofmt -l . && go test ./... -race` and
`go test -tags integration ./... -race` both clean.
