Purpose

Deleting an application, or rotating its client secret, is a security event: the artifacts already issued to that application's OAuth client must stop being accepted. Neither action revoked anything before this change, so a deleted application's signed bearer tokens stayed valid until they expired, and a rotated secret left every token minted under the old one working.

Both actions now run through an administration flow, so the revocation, the session detachment and the action itself happen as one orchestrated sequence. Two flows ship by default:

Flow Handle
Application deletion default-application-deletion-flow
Client secret regeneration default-client-secret-regeneration-flow

The console drives both. Its delete action and its regenerate-secret action resolve the configured handle, execute the flow, and fall back to the native endpoint only when no such flow is configured, matching how user deletion already works.

Approach

Four new executors, two flows. The preparatory node (PreApplicationDeleteExecutor / PreSecretRegenerationExecutor) validates the target and publishes a trusted revocation plan into shared runtime data. The criteria and session nodes act on that plan. The final node (ApplicationDeleteExecutor / ClientSecretRegenerationExecutor) performs the delete or the rotation. Every refusal lands in the preparatory node, before anything has been revoked, rather than surfacing mid-flow with a deny-list row already written.

One type backs both preparatory names. They differ only in which validation runs, which reason is recorded, and whether a cutoff is stamped, so those are parameterized at construction. They stay two registered executors so each pins a single supported mode, which flow creation validates, and so the designer palette names the action rather than hiding it in a property.

Terminal vs bounded revocation. Deletion records application_deleted in ModeAll: the client id is retired with the application, so no future artifact can legitimately carry it and there is nothing to unfreeze. Rotation records application_secret_regenerated in ModeBeforeAction with a cutoff, so only artifacts established at or before that instant are rejected and tokens minted with the new secret carry a later iat and pass.

Deny-list row lifetime. A row is sized from the target application's own token validity plus the authorization-code window, not from the deployment default. Token validity is configured per application and is not capped by that default, so a row sized from it would go inert while the client's tokens were still valid, and both enforcement points would stop matching it. The authorization-code window is included because a code issued before the revocation can still be exchanged for a token after it.

The native endpoints are unchanged. DELETE /applications/{id} and PUT /applications/{id} behave exactly as before, so revocation has one home rather than two. That also means a caller who bypasses the flow gets no revocation, which is the deliberate trade: the flow is the orchestrator, and duplicating the revocation in the service would write the same deny-list row twice on the flow path.

Server config. applicationDeletionFlow and clientSecretRegenerationFlow join userDeletionFlow in the flow server-config section, with handle validation and layer merging. A deployment that unsets either handle keeps the native behaviour, so this is opt-out without a separate mode switch.

Secret entropy. The rotation flow's response is the only moment the new secret is readable, and the server generates it. The console's fallback path still generates one in the browser, because the update endpoint has no way to ask the server for one.

Bug fixed along the way. A refused flow step reports its executor error in the response's error envelope ({code, message, description}). The console was reading a failureReason field that flowexec.FlowResponse has never sent, so a refusal's reason and code were discarded and every failure showed a generic message. Both the new application paths and the existing user-deletion path now read the real envelope and carry the code on the thrown error, and the flow-executor error codes have console catalog entries.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added administration flows for deleting applications and regenerating client secrets.
    • Application deletion now revokes issued tokens and detaches the application from SSO sessions.
    • Client-secret regeneration revokes artifacts associated with the previous secret and returns the new secret once.
    • Console actions use configured flows, with native API fallback only when no flow is configured.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved flow error handling, localized messages, validation, and fail-closed behavior.
    • Enhanced token revocation to recognize application-specific credentials and lifetimes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Application deletion and client-secret regeneration now use configurable administration flows. The backend validates targets, revokes artifacts, detaches sessions, and performs the actions. The console resolves and executes flows with native fallbacks. Structured errors and integration coverage were added.

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

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 48b39

The change is intended to revoke application artifacts during deletion and secret rotation, but current failure and fallback paths can leave previously issued tokens or an old client secret usable after an administrator expects revocation. This is a high-impact security risk, so the PR is not merge-ready until those paths fail closed or are otherwise made atomic and enforced.

🔴 Documentation Required
This PR introduces user-facing changes that are not covered by documentation updates under docs/.
Please update the relevant documentation before merging.

Missing documentation:

  • New server configuration keys: document applicationDeletionFlow and clientSecretRegenerationFlow under the flow section of server configuration, alongside the existing userDeletionFlow, in docs/content/guides/.
  • New default administration flows: document default-application-deletion-flow and default-client-secret-regeneration-flow, including the targetApplicationId input and the returned clientSecret data key, in docs/content/guides/.
  • Changed behavior for application deletion and client-secret regeneration: document that the console runs the configured flow and falls back to the native endpoint when no flow is configured, and that the flow path revokes issued artifacts and detaches sessions, in docs/content/apis.mdx.

Affected sites:

  • frontend/apps/console/src/features/applications/utils/applicationAdministrationFlow.ts#L32-L46: this reads the new applicationDeletionFlow and clientSecretRegenerationFlow configuration keys that need documenting.

Align the palette headers with the renamed executors.

The executor names are ValidateApplicationDeletionExecutor and ValidateSecretRegenerationExecutor, but the headers still read "Pre Application Delete Executor" and "Pre Secret Regeneration Executor". The designer palette shows the header, so users see the old name.

✏️ Proposed header text
-      "header": "Pre Application Delete Executor",
+      "header": "Validate Application Deletion Executor",
-      "header": "Pre Secret Regeneration Executor",

Authorization Bypass (CWE-613): Insufficient Session Expiration

Exploitability: Difficult

Fail closed when the artifact lifetime cannot be resolved.

When GetOAuthClientByClientID fails, return an internal error instead of using TTLSeconds: 0. The fallback can expire the revocation entry before a client-specific token expires, allowing token use after application deletion. Add a regression test for this path.

We have some other future use cases related to client secret generation.

  • Generate additional client secrets
  • Rotate a given/ all client secret/s
  • Regenerate client secret

Rotation can be a flavour of regeneration where we keep the existing secret valid for a certain period of time. Shall we keep this executor generic (rename/ modify files names, etc) so that it can be extended to support these other use cases in future?

Also so far we're keeping the flow level abstract of spec specific details. With this, we're onboarding oauth specific executor to the flow. I think we don't have a option for a component like this. Or else we can make it a generic app secret generator

These two look similar but handle a missing entity in opposite ways on purpose. getApplication() keeps going when the entity is gone and builds the response from the inbound client, while loadApplicationEntity treats that as application-not-found. Reusing it in getApplication() would make the GET API start returning 404 for an application whose entity is missing, so I have left them separate.

Deleting an application or rotating its client secret are security events:
artifacts already issued to that application's OAuth client must stop being
accepted. Carry both out through administration flows so the revocation, the
session detachment and the action itself run as one orchestrated sequence.

Add two shipped ADMINISTRATION flows, default-application-deletion-flow and
default-client-secret-regeneration-flow, built from four new executors. The
preparatory node validates the target and publishes a trusted revocation plan;
the criteria and session nodes act on that plan; the final node performs the
delete or the rotation. Deletion revokes terminally, since a retired client id
can carry no future artifact. Rotation revokes only up to a cutoff, so tokens
minted with the new secret still pass.

Name both flows in the flow server-config section, alongside userDeletionFlow,
and drive them from the console: the delete action and the regenerate-secret
action resolve their configured handle and execute the flow, falling back to the
native endpoint only when no such flow is configured. The rotation flow returns
the new secret, generated with the server's entropy rather than the browser's,
in the only response that exposes it.

The native application endpoints are left unchanged, so revocation has exactly
one home.

A refused step reports its executor error in the response's error envelope, not
in a failureReason field that the API never sends. Read the real envelope and
carry the code on the thrown error so the console shows why a flow refused
instead of a generic failure, and apply the same fix to the user deletion path.

Cover the detachment in the integration suite. Deleting an application through
the flow was only ever exercised against an application nobody had logged into,
so the session node returned on an empty participation list and the work it
exists to do never ran. Two tests now establish a real session: one where a
second application shares it, which must survive the deletion, and one where the
deleted application was its only participant, which must not. Rotation refusals
for an application with no OAuth component, for a public client and for an
unknown application are covered alongside them.

Name the credential operations for the credential rather than for the one action
they perform today, and report what validation found rather than what a revocation
needs. Validation answers whether an action may proceed and describes the artifacts
the application has issued; sizing a deny-list row from that description is one
consumer's business, not validation's. Further credential actions, a rotation that
keeps the old secret briefly valid and additional secrets, arrive as actions on the
same pair of methods instead of methods of their own.

Refuse the deletion while a dependent forbids it, the check userService already
performs before a user is deleted. The cascade removes the dependents that cascade;
this refuses the ones that must not go silently, and fails closed when a provider
cannot report its usage, since deleting on an unknown answer is what the check exists
to prevent.

Cover the branches an integration test can reach: the declarative refusal on both
administration flows, a target that is not an application, and the client-credentials
and refresh-token validity paths that decide how long a deny-list row must outlive the
artifacts it denies.

What remains uncovered in the application and session packages is error handling the
integration suite has no way to provoke: a failing dependency lookup, a corrupt
attribute blob, a failing client-secret write, a failing participation query, a failing
token-family revocation, a failing transaction. Reaching those needs fault injection,
which lives in the unit suite, and the integration patch-coverage check deliberately
does not load unit coverage. No threshold entry is recorded for them, so that check
reports both packages below its bar.

Size the deny-list row from both access-token subject configurations. Access token
validity is configured per token subject, and client_credentials reads the client
sub-config while the row was sized from the user one alone. A machine-to-machine
application with a longer client-token validity therefore got a row that went inert
while the tokens it denies were still valid, which is the failure this sizing exists
to avoid.

Carry the validator's own refusal out of the preparatory node. Every client-side
refusal became the executor's single error, so an application owned by a declarative
file, and one that no longer exists, were both reported as having no client secret to
rotate. The console resolves these codes to messages, so the reason it showed was
wrong rather than merely vague.

Refuse rather than fall back when a configured administration flow cannot be resolved.
An unset handle is the documented opt-out and still falls back to the native endpoint.
A handle that names a missing flow is the opposite: the deployment asked for flow-based
revocation, and deleting or rotating natively would strip the application or mint a new
secret while leaving every issued artifact valid, and report it as a success.

Name the secret executor for the artifact it acts on rather than the one action it
performs today. An executor name is persisted into stored flow definitions and their
version history, so a deployment that authors a flow against
ClientSecretRegenerationExecutor pins that name, and renaming it once further secret
actions exist would break those flows and need a migration. ClientSecretExecutor
carries the same behaviour under a name that already fits the rotation and additional
secrets that arrive later as executor modes.
