Summary

  • When UpdateIdentity changes identity_type, the stored WIMSEURI was not rebuilt. The URI embeds identity_type as a path segment (spiffe://{domain}/{account}/{project}/{identity_type}/{external_id}), so after a retype it went stale — breaking GetIdentityByWIMSEURI and leaving old JWT sub claims dangling.
  • Fix captures priorType before applying mutations, rebuilds the URI if the type changed, and cascade-revokes active credentials after the DB write succeeds (matching the reconcileDiscovered pattern which already handled this correctly).
  • Cleanup ordering fix: runDeactivationCleanup now runs after repo.Update — calling it before would irreversibly revoke credentials if the DB write failed.

Test plan

  • TestBuildWIMSEURI_TypeSegmentVaries — unit test: all 4 identity types produce distinct URIs with the type as a path segment
  • TestUpdateIdentity_TypeChange_WIMSEURIRebuild — integration: retype agent→application, verify new URI in response, old URI → 404 from /identities/by-wimse, new URI → 200
  • TestUpdateIdentity_TypeUnchanged_URIStable — integration: name-only update leaves wimse_uri unchanged
  • All pre-existing domain and integration tests pass

Fixes #239

The WIMSE URI embeds identity_type as a path segment; when UpdateIdentity
changed identity_type the stored URI was not rebuilt, leaving GetIdentityByWIMSEURI
broken and old JWT sub claims dangling. Rebuilds the URI in lockstep (matching
the pattern in reconcileDiscovered) and cascade-revokes active credentials with
reason identity_retyped so old tokens stop resolving.

Adds a domain unit test pinning that BuildWIMSEURI embeds identity_type as a
distinct path segment, and two integration tests covering the retype round-trip
(old URI → 404, new URI → 200) and URI-stable cases.

Fixes #239

runDeactivationCleanup must run after the DB write succeeds — if repo.Update
fails, calling cleanup first irreversibly revokes credentials while the
identity row remains unchanged, leaving it permanently broken.

Follows the same post-persist ordering used for the deactivated and expired
cleanup paths at the bottom of UpdateIdentity.

  • highflame-trivy-check: bumped google.golang.org/grpc v1.80.0 → v1.82.1 (GHSA-hrxh-6v49-42gf HIGH — gRPC-Go: xDS RBAC and HTTP/2 Vulnerabilities). Also bumped co-dependent google.golang.org/genproto/googleapis/api and google.golang.org/genproto/googleapis/rpc to their matching 2026-04-14 snapshot. Ran go mod tidy; build and vet clean with GOEXPERIMENT=jsonv2.

…s timeout)

make test was running ./... including tests/integration/ with a 120s timeout,
but testcontainers startup alone takes ~60s, causing the integration binary to
consistently hit the timeout. CI runs unit and integration tests as separate
jobs with 300s timeouts.

Update make test to match CI: exclude ./tests/... (identical to the
go list grep in pr-check.yml) and raise the timeout to 300s. Add
make test-all for the combined suite and make test-integration now also
uses 300s to accommodate container startup.

📋 PR Summary

What this PR does: Fixes a data consistency bug where WIMSEURI was not rebuilt when identity_type changes during UpdateIdentity, preventing stale URIs and dangling JWT sub claims.

Key changes:

  • Captures priorType before mutations to detect type changes
  • Rebuilds WIMSEURI when identity_type changes to maintain URI consistency
  • Cascade-revokes active credentials after successful DB write
  • Fixes cleanup ordering: runDeactivationCleanup now runs after repo.Update to prevent irreversible credential revocation on DB failure

Areas affected: Identity management, WIMSE URI generation, Credential lifecycle, Test infrastructure

Testing notes: Comprehensive test coverage includes unit tests for URI type variation, integration tests for type changes verifying URI rebuild and 404 on old URI, and stability tests for unchanged types


🔍 Code Review

This is a well-executed fix that addresses a critical data consistency bug with thoughtful edge-case handling. The author demonstrates deep understanding of the codebase by matching existing patterns (reconcileDiscovered) and identifying a secondary issue with cleanup ordering that could have caused permanent credential loss.

What's good:

  • ✨ Excellent pattern matching with existing reconcileDiscovered logic for credential revocation
  • ✨ Thoughtful fix for the cleanup ordering issue that prevents irreversible side effects on DB failure
  • ✨ Comprehensive test coverage including unit tests, integration tests, and edge cases
  • ✨ Clear documentation of the root cause and the rationale behind the fix approach

Consider increasing timeout beyond 300s for larger test suites

While 300s is a reasonable increase from 120s, Go test suites with race detection can sometimes exceed this as the codebase grows. Consider 600s to future-proof against flaky timeouts in CI, or make it configurable via an environment variable.
