plugin-auth: with SSO domain verification ON, request-domain-verification and verify-domain answer an unknown providerId with DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED ("not enabled ... set OS_SSO_DOMAIN_VERIFICATION") #22463

Description

@objectstack-fleet

Filing gate: ① a product defect, reach measured through a public door. Found and measured by the dev of #22398 (PR #22461, report on #22398, out_of_scope_findings[0]); filed by the domain:services seat 2 (session_01WYYhVJ78u7PhwFViWo1EmQ). ⛔ Not a claim.

Reader: triage routes it; by its file it lands in domain:services (packages/plugins/plugin-auth).

Dedupe (MCP search_issues, open and closed, run just before this card was created): DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED provider not found sso request-domain-verification verify-domain 404 mapping misleading → 3 hits, all closed: #10859 (verify-domain answered a FAILURE code when disabled; likely where the current mapping came from), #10860 (ledger annotation of DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_FAILED), #10716 (lowercase codes). None covers this case.

The defect

With domain verification ON (sso({ domainVerification: { enabled: true } }), OS_SSO_DOMAIN_VERIFICATION set), an admin who calls either door with a providerId that does not exist gets:

400 DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED · "Domain verification is not enabled for this environment (set OS_SSO_DOMAIN_VERIFICATION)"

That is user-visible copy telling the operator to turn on a feature that is already on. The real cause, an unknown provider, is lost.

Measured on the mounted route (the real plugin-auth registerAuthRoutes on Hono, a real AuthManager on better-auth 1.7.3 with @better-auth/sso 1.7.3):

  • POST /api/v1/auth/admin/sso/request-domain-verification and POST /api/v1/auth/admin/sso/verify-domain, unknown providerId, sent by an admin, domain verification ON → 400 DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED with the message above.

Where

packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/register-sso-provider.ts, the bridges runRequestDomainVerification and runVerifyDomain (the resp.status === 404 && !parsed?.code branch, about :417 and :480 on PR #22461's head). That branch maps ANY 404 without a code to DISABLED, but the vendor answers two different 404s, both without a code:

  • feature OFF: 404 with an empty body;
  • provider not found: 404 {"message":"Provider not found"} (checkProviderAccess, @better-auth/sso 1.7.3 dist/index.mjs:2259).

(Both read with handleRequest directly.)

Fix direction (for the claimant to measure)

Tell the two 404s apart, by the body (an empty body vs a message) or by checking the environment's own domain-verification flag before calling the vendor, and answer an unknown provider with a not-found code (404, ADR-0112 envelope). Keep DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED for the feature-off case only.

Tests

  • Pin: domain verification ON, unknown providerId → a not-found code and message, not DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED, on both doors.
  • Control: domain verification OFF → DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED as today.
  • Ablation: restoring the any-404 mapping turns the pin red.

    Triage: the defect is in packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/register-sso-provider.ts, in the two domain-verification bridges. On main 3ca71b6e05 the DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED answers are at :409 and :470. That puts it in domain:services.

    File surface, per the card body and triage 6079484598, read on origin/main after PR #22461 (f66c440de):

    • packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/register-sso-provider.ts, the two bridges runRequestDomainVerification (about :394) and runVerifyDomain (about :447). Each decides from the environment's own domain-verification flag, not from the vendor's 404 body:
      • flag off → DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED as today, without calling the vendor;
      • flag on and a code-less vendor 404 → the provider was not found, answered with the envelope's existing not-found code at 404 (RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND is the one plugin-auth uses today; check:error-status-conformance decides).
      • With no flag handed in, today's mapping is kept: the cloud auth proxy mounts these exported helpers too, and it must not change behaviour unasked.
    • packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/auth-plugin.ts, the two mounts (about :3076–:3110) only: hand each bridge this.authManager.isSsoDomainVerificationEnabled() (auth-manager.ts about :7036, the exact logic buildPluginList uses).
    • Tests in plugin-auth: the card's three pins (unknown providerId with the feature on → not-found on both doors; feature off → DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED; the ablation), and triage's fourth (an existing provider with the feature on still reaches the vendor's own answer).
    • .changeset/22463-*.md: minor for @objectstack/plugin-auth (see Clause-②).
    • ⛔ No branching on the vendor's 404 body text (triage). ⛔ No new error code unless check:error-status-conformance requires one. ⛔ No packages/spec, no content/docs, no other package's source. (Stop on breach and explain in the report.)
      Container & model: S, mode:subagent, model: default — dispatch-gates --tier gives no path-derived mandate; a local mapping fix on two bridges with real-better-auth pins.
      Clause-②: yes (widening)
    • runRequestDomainVerification and runVerifyDomain are published (plugin-auth's index.ts re-exports register-sso-provider.js). Handing them the flag adds an optional parameter, a new accepted input on an exported function. That is an additive widening, so it takes minor (the WHICH LEVEL ruling) and is owed a contract-review-tier record on the head. If the dev's diff reaches the flag without changing any exported signature, the seat amends this line at review.
    • The doors' answers change for one case only: an unknown provider with the feature on, from 400 DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED to a not-found 404. That corrects a wrong reason on an admin-only door; nothing refused today is admitted.
      Responsibility: platform code: the two SSO domain-verification bridges map any code-less vendor 404 to DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED, so an unknown providerId with the feature on is told to turn on a feature that is on | none: AuthManager.isSsoDomainVerificationEnabled() knows the flag, and no bridge reads it | platform admins calling request-domain-verification or verify-domain with a wrong providerId on an environment with OS_SSO_DOMAIN_VERIFICATION on (measured by #22398's dev on the mounted route)
      Thread-read: 6079484598
      Serial constraints cleared: read 2026-10-09T11:55Z:
    • Open PRs (10, each file list read against plugin-auth/**): none touches plugin-auth source. The release PR chore: version packages #21988 bumps its package.json and CHANGELOG.md only.
    • PR fix(auth): plugin-auth re-dispatch and vendor-call doors stop renewing a cookie session in-process (#22398) #22461 (auth: plugin-auth doors that re-dispatch get-session or call a better-auth endpoint in-process still renew a cookie session without re-issuing its cookie (split session, the residue of #22258) #22398), triage's named serial constraint on this file, merged as f66c440de.
    • In-flight claims in domain:services: seat 1 feat(core,objectql,plugin-security,plugin-sharing): the catalog is read from the registry; assignment tables reference it by name (ADR-0131 D2/D3/D4) #15196 (plugin-security, plugin-sharing), disjoint; seat 1's region row on auth-plugin.ts ([PM seat] domain:services — 🟢 zhuangjianguo · session_013j5gkUCpqQiti4GgPqqmnt #6021 section 3) holds no open claim. Seat 2 plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request declares its per-caller viewer block under attachedOnRead, with a conformance test against attachViewers (#22211 ruling A, plugin-approvals half) #22387 (plugin-approvals), disjoint.

A4 (every ON 404 read as not-found) turned 2 red: 'expected RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND to be NO_PENDING_VERIFICATION'. A5 (a missing flag read as on) turned 7 red, the no-flag pins plus the 3 earlier DISABLED pins. A6 (a capability answer ahead of gateAdmin) turned 2 red: 'expected 400 to be 401'. A6's first attempt was a no-op: the tool refused it with exit 1 before any test ran, because the replacement re-contained the anchor. It was re-run with an anchor-free replacement. The ablation-style positive legs also caught a dead vi.spyOn counter in the first draft (the imported impersonation-bearer-rotation.test.ts registers afterEach(restoreAllMocks)); it is now a plain instance wrapper.

    ACCEPT — PR #22486 at dd583360, every check green

    domain:services seat 2 · session_01WYYhVJ78u7PhwFViWo1EmQ · read on GitHub 2026-10-09T14:22Z

    Checked on GitHub and in the diff, not from the report:

    • Shape: draft, base main; line 1 Fixes #22463, line 2 Clause-②: yes (widening); no other closing keyword; assignee os-elon-musk. 6 files, +463 / −24, all inside the claim's surface. auth-plugin.ts is touched only at the two mounts (:3073–:3110).
    • The fix, as triage directed (6079484598): each mount hands its bridge AuthManager.isSsoDomainVerificationEnabled(), read after gateAdmin.
      • Off → 400 DOMAIN_VERIFICATION_DISABLED before any vendor call.
      • On, with a code-less vendor 404 → 404 RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND naming the provider id.
      • A coded vendor 404 (NO_PENDING_VERIFICATION) passes through.
      • No flag → the earlier mapping byte for byte.
      • The decision reads the status and the structured code only, never the vendor's wording. No new error code: RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND is HttpStatusErrorCodeMap[404], already emitted in plugin-auth.
    • Pins: a new real-stack file (15 own cases: preconditions, the card's pin on both doors, the off control, an existing provider, anonymous 401 on and off, the no-flag bridge) and 13 new unit pins. Six ablations (A1–A6) each red the cases they should, with every restore proven to a blob equal to HEAD.
    • Changeset: minor for @objectstack/plugin-auth. Its Before / Now / Unchanged / exported-bridges sentences match the code at this head, and the contract review read them sentence by sentence too.

    Contract review: the at-tier record on dd583360 is 6082800216 on the PR, VERDICT: PASS.

    • The only published widening is the optional third parameter on the two exported bridges. The two helper types are module-local.
    • No narrowing. The cloud proxy's two-argument call keeps the old mapping.

    Out-of-scope findings and escalations:

    Landing: governed check and queue in this stroke. Fixes #22463 closes this card; the seat then clears pm:dispatched and the assignee.
