NICo only accepted JWTs as bearer credentials, so a client holding an NGC API key
had to exchange it for a token before it could call the REST API. This adds a kas
issuer origin that accepts an NGC API key directly and resolves it to a NICo user
against NGC, covering nvapi- personal and service keys as well as base64 legacy keys.
A personal key resolves through /v2/users/me, which reports every org its owner
belongs to. A service key resolves through get-sak-info, whose policy set is what
grants the NICo provider or tenant admin role; get-caller-info is used only to tell
the two apart, because the user record it embeds is scoped to the org the key was
minted in. Resolutions are cached by key digest, keys NGC rejects are blocked for five
minutes, and concurrent resolutions of the same key are deduplicated so a burst costs
one upstream call.
Also renames JWTOriginConfig to TokenOriginConfig, since that type now owns an
origin whose credentials are not JWTs.

Review Change Stack

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added authentication with NGC API keys through the kas token origin.
    • Supports personal, service, and legacy API-key credentials, including service-key role mapping.
    • Added credential validation, caching, and automatic user creation or updates.
  • Improvements

    • Consolidated authentication configuration under token-origin terminology.
    • Added validation rules for KAS-origin issuer configurations.
    • Preserved legacy KAS JWT support for existing deployments.
    • Added API-key fallback processing when standard token parsing fails.

Walkthrough

The authentication system now uses TokenOriginConfig, validates kas issuers, processes NGC API keys, and routes bearer credentials through KAS-origin processors. Existing JWT-based KAS support remains available as a deprecated processor.

Changes

Token-origin authentication

Layer / File(s) Summary
Token-origin configuration and KAS validation
rest-api/api/internal/config/config.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/config/tokenOrigin.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/config/jwks.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/config/tokenOrigin_test.go
Renames JWT-origin configuration to token-origin configuration. Adds the kas origin. Restricts KAS issuers to one issuer without JWKS, issuer claims, claim mappings, or service-account mode.
NGC API-key processor and registration
rest-api/auth/pkg/processors/kas.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/processors/kas_legacy.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/processors/kas_ssa.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/processors/processors.go, rest-api/go.mod
Adds direct NGC API-key validation, identity resolution, credential caches, singleflight refresh, and database synchronization. Registers the processor for KAS origins while retaining deprecated JWT-based KAS processing.
Middleware and server integration
rest-api/api/internal/server/server.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/authentication/middleware.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/authentication/keycloak_test.go, rest-api/auth/pkg/authentication/middleware_test.go
Updates middleware and server initialization to use TokenOriginConfig. Attempts KAS API-key processing when JWT parsing fails. Updates authentication and routing tests.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 3293e

This PR adds direct NGC API-key authentication, but the current implementation can collide service-key and legacy-token identities in shared user records, potentially applying the wrong authorization data; it also leaves upstream response size unbounded and can prematurely fail or temporarily block valid credentials. These concrete authentication and availability risks make the PR not merge-ready until corrected.

Flatten the redundant loop and switch.

The loop iterates over exactly the four constants that the switch then matches one by one. The indirection adds nesting without adding behavior. Straight-line registration reads better and removes the possibility of the slice and the switch drifting apart.

The conditional KAS-origin registration below is correct, and it matches the middleware, which also gates on the presence of a KAS-origin processor before it routes a non-JWT bearer.

Make the NGC base URL configurable instead of a compile-time constant.

ngcBaseURL is hardcoded to production NGC. Every other endpoint in this auth package arrives through issuer configuration. A staging or air-gapped deployment cannot point this processor at a different NGC host, and unit tests cannot target an httptest server without reaching into package internals.

The ngcClient struct already carries baseURL, so the seam exists. Thread the value in from the KAS issuer configuration, and keep the current constant as the default.

♻️ Suggested direction
-func newResolver(dbSession *cdb.Session) *resolver {
+func newResolver(dbSession *cdb.Session, baseURL string) *resolver {
+	if baseURL == "" {
+		baseURL = ngcBaseURL

 	cache, err := newAPIKeyCache()

Bound the NGC response body.

io.ReadAll reads the upstream body without a size limit. An unexpectedly large or malformed NGC response then allocates without bound on the request path. Wrap the body in io.LimitReader with a ceiling that fits the three expected payloads.

Add a kas issuer origin that accepts NGC API keys as bearer credentials
and resolves them to a NICo user via NGC, so clients are
not forced through a separate JWT exchange. Supports nvapi- personal and
service keys and base64 legacy keys; caches by key digest with NGC
401/403 blocking and single-flight deduplication.

Signed-off-by: Parham Armani <parmani@nvidia.com>
`newResolver` and `NewKasOriginProcessor` each returned an error whose
only source was `freelru` cache allocation. That constructor rejects a
non-positive capacity, a capacity larger than the size, and a nil hash
function -- all three fixed by the compile-time constants at the call
site, so no reachable input can produce a non-nil error.

`newResolver` now panics on that branch instead. The processor is non-nil
by construction, `NewKasOriginProcessor` matches the signature of its
four sibling constructors, and if the capacities ever become
configurable the failure surfaces at startup rather than silently
rejecting every NGC API key with a 401.

Signed-off-by: Parham Armani <parmani@nvidia.com>
The kas origin authenticates NGC API keys, which are not JWTs, so the
type that owns every bearer-credential origin can no longer be named
after JWTs.

Renames the type, its constructor, the `GetOrInit` accessor on `Config`,
the `Config.TokenOriginConfig` field, the `joCfg` parameter and `jc`
receiver names, and the `jwtOrigin.go` / `jwtOrigin_test.go` files. No
behaviour change: every hunk is an identifier or filename, plus the
gofmt realignment of the `Config` struct that the longer field name
forces.

Signed-off-by: Parham Armani <parmani@nvidia.com>
The user record embedded in get-caller-info is scoped to the org the key
was minted in, so it under-reported membership for owners belonging to
more than one org. Personal keys now call /v2/users/me, which returns the
full set.

That set is broad in practice, since an NGC user usually belongs to many
orgs unrelated to NICo, so filter it to the orgs whose roles actually
grant access. The filter runs through ValidateUserRolesInOrg against
config.AllowedRoles so it cannot drift from what authorization enforces.
detectAPIKeyType is a local constant-cost check, so blocking on its
failure let an unauthenticated caller write into a shared 4096-entry
structure. Each garbage bearer evicted a genuine NGC-derived verdict and
restored an NGC round trip for a key NGC had already rejected.

Rejecting on format before hashing reserves the block cache for verdicts
that cost an NGC call, and skips the digest for input that cannot be a
key.
The comment named HandleToken, so godoc for the exported method did not
begin with the method name and generated misleading documentation.

Preserve the underlying cause when collapsing to errUnresolvable.

Lines 375 and 380 discard err. ProcessToken then logs errUnresolvable at Line 532, so the operator sees only "API key could not be resolved". The distinction that matters during an incident is lost: NGC timeout, NGC 500, an undecodable response, a missing starfleetId, or a database failure all produce the same line.

Wrap the cause so errors.Is(err, errUnresolvable) still holds at the call site and the log carries the detail.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Consider separating "rejected" from "forbidden" before blocking the credential.

do maps both 401 and 403 to errNgcUnauthorized. In refresh, that verdict writes the digest into blockLRU for blockLifetime. A 403 from NGC is not always a statement that the credential is invalid; it can also indicate a policy or scope decision on the specific endpoint, or an edge-layer denial. In that case a valid key is hard-blocked for five minutes, and the caller receives 401 with no retry path.

If NGC returns 403 only for invalid credentials on these endpoints, keep the current mapping and record that fact in a comment. Otherwise, treat 403 as errNgcUpstream so it degrades to 503 instead of poisoning the block cache.

As per path instructions: "Review auth changes for JWT/keycloak behavior, token validation, authorization boundaries, service-account handling, and secret exposure risk."

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

fetchTimeout is overloaded as both a per-call and a whole-operation budget.

Line 365 gives the entire leader operation fetchTimeout (10s). The same constant is the per-request http.Client.Timeout at Line 332. The leader work is not a single request:

  • formatNvapi + service key: get-caller-info, then get-sak-info, then createOrUpdateUser.
  • formatNvapi + personal key: get-caller-info, then /v2/users/me, then createOrUpdateUser.

If the first NGC call consumes most of the budget, fetchCtx expires during the second call or during the database write. The failure surfaces as errUnresolvable and a 503, and every waiter on the same singleflight key receives it. One slow NGC response therefore fails the whole resolution instead of the individual call.

Give the operation its own budget, sized for the sequential calls plus the database write.

🔧 Proposed fix
 const (
 	ngcBaseURL   = "https://api.ngc.nvidia.com"
 	fetchTimeout = 10 * time.Second
+	// resolveTimeout covers the full leader operation: up to two sequential NGC
+	// calls plus the user upsert
+	resolveTimeout = 25 * time.Second
 
 	keyTypeService  = "SERVICE_KEY"
 	keyTypePersonal = "PERSONAL_KEY"
 )
-	fetchCtx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.WithoutCancel(ctx), fetchTimeout)
+	fetchCtx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.WithoutCancel(ctx), resolveTimeout)
 	defer cancel()

As per path instructions: "Review Go code for correctness, clean control flow, error handling, context propagation, test coverage, performance, and cohesive organization."

Namespace SAK and KAS identifiers before storing them in AuxiliaryID.

The service-key path stores the raw info.APIKey.KeyID, while the legacy KAS path queries and updates the raw JWT subject. Both paths use the same unique AuxiliaryID column, and the legacy workflow replaces OrgData. Equal values can therefore make distinct credentials share a user record and authorization data. Use distinct prefixes such as sak: and kas: before persistence.
