Switch from using "text/template" to "html/template", which provides
basic XSS preventions. We haven't identified any particular place
where unsanitized user data is rendered to the frontend. This is
just a preventative step.
At the same time, make more templates take pure URL instead of
forming an URL themselves using an "authReqID" argument. This will
help us stop using the auth req ID in certain places, preventing
garbage collection from killing login flows that wait too long at
the login screen.
Also increase the login session window (time between initial
redirect and the user logging in) from 30 minutes to 24 hours,
and display a more helpful error message when the session expires.
How to test:
1. Spin up dex and example with examples/config-dev.yaml.
2. Login through both the password prompt and the direct redirect.
3. Edit examples/config-dev.yaml removing the "connectors" section.
4. Ensure you can still login with a password.
(email/password is "admin@example.com" and "password")
This PR reworks the web layout so static files can be provided and
a "themes" directory to allow a certain degree of control over logos,
styles, etc.
This PR does NOT add general support for frontend customization,
only enough to allow us to start exploring theming internally.
The dex binary also must now be run from the root directory since
templates are no longer "compiled into" the binary.
The docker image has been updated with frontend assets.
"state" means something specific to OAuth2 and SAML so we don't
want to confuse developers who are working on this.
Also don't use "session" which could easily be confused with HTTP
cookies.
