Slavi Pantaleev 96afbbb5af Allow additional volumes to be mounted into matrix-nginx-proxy
Certain use-cases may require that people mount additional files
into the matrix-nginx-proxy container. Similarly to how we do it
for Synapse, we are introducing a new variable that makes this
possible (`matrix_nginx_proxy_container_additional_volumes`).

This makes the htpasswd file for Synapse Metrics (introduced in #86,
Github Pull Request) to also perform mounting using this new mechanism.
Hopefully, for such an "extension", keeping htpasswd file-creation and
volume definition in the same place (the tasks file) is better.

All other major volumes' mounting mechanism remains the same (explicit
mounting).

Slavi Pantaleev 9a251e4e46 Remove some more references to localhost
Continuation of 1f0cc92b33.

As an explanation for the problem:
when saying `localhost` on the host, it sometimes gets resolved to `::1`
and sometimes to `127.0.0.1`. On the unfortunate occassions that
it gets resolved to `::1`, the container won't be able to serve the
request, because Docker containers don't have IPv6 enabled by default.

To avoid this problem, we simply prevent any lookups from happening
and explicitly use `127.0.0.1`.

Slavi Pantaleev a9fae8e3b1 Revert "Use native OpenSSL module to generate passkey.pem"
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.

Slavi Pantaleev cbc1cdbbf0 Do not try to load certificates
Seems like we unintentionally removed the mounting of certificates
(the `/matrix-config` mount) as part of splitting the playbook into
roles in 51312b8250.

It appears that those certificates weren't necessary for coturn to
funciton though, so we might just get rid of the configuration as well.

Slavi Pantaleev 9438402f61 Drop capabilities in a few more places
Continuation of 316d653d3e
2019-01-28 11:43:32 +02:00
Slavi Pantaleev 316d653d3e Drop capabilities in containers
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

Slavi Pantaleev 0ff6735546 Fall back to dig for SRV lookup, if no dnspython
This is a known/intentional regression since f92c4d5a27.

The new stance on this is that most people would not have
dnspython, but may have the `dig` tool. There's no good
reason for not increasing our chances of success by trying both
methods (Ansible dig lookup and using the `dig` CLI tool).

Fixes #85 (Github issue).

Slavi Pantaleev 299a8c4c7c Make (most) containers start as non-root
This makes all containers (except mautrix-telegram and
mautrix-whatsapp), start as a non-root user.

We do this, because we don't trust some of the images.
In any case, we'd rather not trust ALL images and avoid giving
`root` access at all. We can't be sure they would drop privileges
or what they might do before they do it.

Because Postfix doesn't support running as non-root,
it had to be replaced by an Exim mail server.

The matrix-nginx-proxy nginx container image is patched up
(by replacing its main configuration) so that it can work as non-root.
It seems like there's no other good image that we can use and that is up-to-date
(https://hub.docker.com/r/nginxinc/nginx-unprivileged is outdated).

Likewise for riot-web (https://hub.docker.com/r/bubuntux/riot-web/),
we patch it up ourselves when starting (replacing the main nginx
configuration).
Ideally, it would be fixed upstream so we can simplify.

Slavi Pantaleev 56d501679d Be explicit about the UID/GID we start Synapse with
We do match the defaults anyway (by default that is),
but people can customize `matrix_user_uid` and `matrix_user_uid`
and it wouldn't be correct then.

In any case, it's better to be explicit about such an important thing.

Slavi Pantaleev 8d186e5194 Fix Postgres import when Postgres had never started
If this is a brand new server and Postgres had never started,
detecting it before we even start it is not possible.

This moves the logic, so that it happens later on, when Postgres
would have had the chance to start and possibly initialize
a new empty database.
