Walkthrough

The changes primarily focus on enhancing the error handling and validation processes within the VerifyAttestation method of the AttestationObject struct in protocol/attestation.go, as well as the ValidateMetadata function in protocol/metadata.go. A new error variable, ErrMetadata, is introduced in protocol/errors.go to handle specific metadata validation errors. The validateLogin method in webauthn/login.go is updated to include additional parameters for improved credential validation. Overall, these modifications streamline control flows and improve error reporting.

43-46: Add a default details message for consistency

Unlike other error definitions in this file, ErrMetadata has an empty Details field. Consider adding a default message to maintain consistency and provide immediate context when the error is used without calling WithDetails().

 ErrMetadata = &Error{
   Type:    "invalid_metadata",
-  Details: "",
+  Details: "Error validating metadata statement",
 }

43-46: Consider maintaining alphabetical ordering of error definitions

The new ErrMetadata is placed between ErrInvalidAttestation and ErrAttestationFormat, breaking the apparent alphabetical ordering of error variables. Consider moving it after ErrInvalidAttestation but before ErrNotImplemented to maintain consistent ordering.

protocol/metadata.go (3)

22-22: Typographical Error in Error Message

The word "retrieving" is misspelled as "retreiving" in the error message. Please correct the spelling to improve clarity.

Apply this diff to fix the typo:

- return nil, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(fmt.Sprintf("Failed to validate authenticator metadata for Authenticator Attestation GUID '%s'. Error occurred retreiving the metadata entry: %+v", aaguid, err))
+ return nil, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(fmt.Sprintf("Failed to validate authenticator metadata for Authenticator Attestation GUID '%s'. Error occurred retrieving the metadata entry: %+v", aaguid, err))

49-49: Inconsistent Return Value on Attestation Type Mismatch

When the attestation type is not found, the function returns (entry, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(...)). In other error cases where validation fails, the function returns (nil, error). For consistency and to avoid potential confusion, consider returning (nil, error) when an error occurs.

Apply this diff to make the return value consistent:

- return entry, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(fmt.Sprintf("Failed to validate authenticator metadata for Authenticator Attestation GUID '%s'. The attestation type '%s' is not known to be used by this authenticator.", aaguid.String(), attestationType))
+ return nil, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(fmt.Sprintf("Failed to validate authenticator metadata for Authenticator Attestation GUID '%s'. The attestation type '%s' is not known to be used by this authenticator.", aaguid.String(), attestationType))

55-55: Inconsistent Return Value on Status Validation Error

Similarly, when mds.ValidateStatusReports returns an error, the function returns (entry, error). To maintain consistency across the function, consider returning (nil, error) unless there is a specific reason to return the entry alongside the error.

Apply this diff to align the return values:

- return entry, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(fmt.Sprintf("Failed to validate authenticator metadata for Authenticator Attestation GUID '%s'. Error occurred validating the authenticator status: %+v", aaguid, err))
+ return nil, ErrMetadata.WithInfo(fmt.Sprintf("Failed to validate authenticator metadata for Authenticator Attestation GUID '%s'. Error occurred validating the authenticator status: %+v", aaguid, err))
protocol/attestation.go (1)

190-190: Use the declared context variable ctx

The context variable ctx is declared but not used. Consider using ctx in the call to ValidateMetadata for consistency.

Apply this diff to utilize the ctx variable:

 var protoErr *Error

 ctx := context.Background()

- if entry, protoErr = ValidateMetadata(context.Background(), aaguid, attestationType, mds); protoErr != nil {
+ if entry, protoErr = ValidateMetadata(ctx, aaguid, attestationType, mds); protoErr != nil {
webauthn/login.go (1)

320-323: Consider passing a context instead of using context.Background()

Using context.Background() may limit the ability to handle cancellations and timeouts effectively. Consider passing a context.Context from the caller to allow for better control over the execution flow and resource management.

Apply the following changes:

  1. Modify the call to ValidateMetadata:

    -		if _, protoErr = protocol.ValidateMetadata(context.Background(), aaguid, credential.AttestationType, webauthn.Config.MDS); protoErr != nil {
    +		if _, protoErr = protocol.ValidateMetadata(ctx, aaguid, credential.AttestationType, webauthn.Config.MDS); protoErr != nil {
  2. Update the function signature to accept a context.Context:

    -	func (webauthn *WebAuthn) validateLogin(user User, session SessionData, parsedResponse *protocol.ParsedCredentialAssertionData) (*Credential, error) {
    +	func (webauthn *WebAuthn) validateLogin(ctx context.Context, user User, session SessionData, parsedResponse *protocol.ParsedCredentialAssertionData) (*Credential, error) {
  3. Ensure that all callers of validateLogin pass the appropriate context. For example:

    -	return webauthn.validateLogin(user, session, parsedResponse)
    +	return webauthn.validateLogin(ctx, user, session, parsedResponse)

43-46: Verify error handling consistency across metadata validation

Let's ensure this new error is properly integrated with appropriate error details where used.

✅ Verification successful

Error handling is consistent but uses WithInfo instead of WithDetails

The error is properly integrated across the codebase in protocol/metadata.go with detailed error messages, but it consistently uses WithInfo() method instead of WithDetails(). All usages provide specific error context including the AAGUID and detailed failure reasons. The error is used in appropriate scenarios:

  • When metadata entry retrieval fails
  • When authenticator has no registered metadata
  • When attestation type validation fails
  • When status report validation fails
🏁 Scripts executed

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Check how ErrMetadata is used across the codebase
# Expect: Usage in ValidateMetadata with WithDetails() calls

# Check for direct ErrMetadata usage
rg "ErrMetadata" -B 2 -A 2

# Check for "invalid_metadata" type usage
rg "invalid_metadata" -B 2 -A 2

# Look for potential error wrapping patterns
ast-grep --pattern 'WithDetails($$$)'

protocol/metadata.go (1)

14-14: Verify the Handling of Nil Metadata Provider

When mds == nil, the function returns (nil, nil). Ensure that this behavior is intentional and that the calling code correctly handles a nil entry and a nil error. If a nil mds should be considered an error, you might want to return an appropriate error to avoid potential nil pointer dereferences.

Run the following script to check how ValidateMetadata is called in the codebase and whether mds can be nil:

✅ Verification successful

Returning nil, nil for a nil Provider is Correct

The current behavior is intentional and safe. From the code analysis:

  1. The webauthn.Config.MDS is explicitly checked for nil before calling ValidateMetadata
  2. The ValidateMetadata function gracefully handles both nil provider and nil entry cases
  3. The metadata validation is an optional feature, as evidenced by the conditional checks in login.go

The function correctly follows the pattern where a nil provider indicates that metadata validation is disabled, which is a valid configuration state. No changes are needed.

🏁 Scripts executed

The following scripts were executed for the analysis:

Script:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Find all calls to ValidateMetadata and check for nil `mds`.

# Search for all usages of ValidateMetadata
rg 'ValidateMetadata\('

# Check if `mds` is ever passed as `nil`

}'

# And check if there are any tests that verify nil provider behavior

⚠️ Potential issue

Possible Type Conversion Issue in Attestation Type Comparison

In the comparison string(atype) == attestationType, there may be a type mismatch. If atype is not inherently a string, converting it using string(atype) might not yield the expected result. Ensure that atype is properly converted to a string that represents the attestation type.

Apply this diff if atype is of a custom type that implements String():

- if string(atype) == attestationType {
+ if atype.String() == attestationType {

Alternatively, if attestationType can be converted to the same type as atype, consider:

- if string(atype) == attestationType {
+ if atype == metadata.AttestationType(attestationType) {

Please verify that the comparison accurately reflects the intended logic.

24-24: Typographical fix: "retreiving" → "retrieving".
Improve clarity in the error message by correcting the spelling.

- Error occurred retreiving the metadata entry

39-53: Use a consistent approach for attestation-type matching.
Current code checks attestation types in a loop. If you frequently compare or log these types, consider switching to typed constants or enumerations to avoid mismatches.


50-51: Provide fallback or more context in error.
When no matching attestation type is found, the error might benefit from suggesting known or expected attestation types.


73-77: Improve error granularity for x5c parse type mismatch.
It might be useful to mention the index/ordinal in the error details to help pinpoint the offending certificate. The loopOrdinalNumber function is invoked below, but consider reusing it here if relevant.

🔇 Additional comments (22)
protocol/attestation_tpm.go (4)

118-118: Well-structured verification of TPM CertInfo consistency.
This check correctly ensures that certInfo.ExtraData matches the expected hash of the concatenated authenticator data and client data. No issues found.


Line range hint 289-319: Potential edge case handling for 'id:' prefix.
Unmarshaling into tpmDeviceAttributes and trimming the "id:" prefix is straightforward. However, if "id:" is absent or partially spelled, the code silently sets the string as-is. Consider confirming that an "id:" prefix is truly expected, and handle partial matches or unexpected values.


370-386: Straightforward hierarchy checks for AIK CA certificate.
This function cleanly orchestrates SAN parsing and EKU removal. The loop that processes parent certificates also returns early upon first failure, which seems correct in preventing partial acceptance of a broken chain.


Line range hint 434-455: Mutating certificate UnknownExtKeyUsage in place.
This function removes invalid or unrecognized EKUs and checks for mandatory AIK usage. The in-place update of x5c.UnknownExtKeyUsage is intentional. Just ensure that no other code path relies on the original EKUs before this modification.

protocol/options_test.go (1)

30-30: Use of PublicKeyCredentialType constant improves maintainability.
Replacing the hardcoded string with a typed constant ensures consistency and reduces the risk of typos across the codebase.

protocol/attestation_safetynet.go (1)

88-88: Properly parsing the certificate from the SafetyNet JWT header.
This approach, using x509.ParseCertificate, is aligned with best practices for validating SafetyNet attestations. No issues found.

protocol/attestation_androidkey_test.go (1)

57-57: Enhanced test assertion ensures correctness.
Verifying the return value is consistent with the expected output. This clarifies test intentions.

protocol/assertion.go (2)

57-60: Ensuring request body is fully discarded and closed.
Capturing the body reading/closing in a defer function is a best practice that aids connection reuse. This pattern is safe for all typical use cases.


103-103: Type check leverages typed constant for clarity.
Switching to string(PublicKeyCredentialType) for comparison is more robust than a hardcoded string, avoiding accidental mismatch.

protocol/assertion_test.go (2)

47-47: Use of typed constant instead of magic string.

Replacing the hard-coded "public-key" value with string(PublicKeyCredentialType) promotes consistency and reduces the risk of typographical errors.


77-77: Consistent credential type checks.

Updating the credential type to string(PublicKeyCredentialType) keeps it in sync with the existing constant, improving maintainability in test assertions.

protocol/attestation_packed.go (1)

226-227: Helpful documentation for signature verification flow.

These comments illustrate the signature validation over authData + clientDataHash, aligning with the official spec guidelines without altering logic.

protocol/credential.go (1)

118-118: Robust type check for credential creation.

Ensuring that PublicKeyCredentialType matches "public-key" via a typed constant avoids magic strings and possible mismatches. Well done.

protocol/credential_test.go (4)

44-44: Test alignment with the typed credential.

Using string(PublicKeyCredentialType) in tests guarantees consistency with production code, preventing accidental string mismatches.


77-77: Improved maintainability of credential tests.

This reiterates the same change—switching to the typed constant ensures consistent usage across test and production code.


185-185: Unified approach for credential type verification in tests.

Replacing the hard-coded value maintains a single source of truth, making future refactors simpler.


213-213: Update to typed constant for clarity.

Adopting string(PublicKeyCredentialType) clarifies that we are testing a public-key credential properly.

protocol/metadata.go (5)

54-59: ValidateStatus call looks correct.
The error handling properly wraps and returns a contextual message.


60-64: Double-check the early return when x5cs is empty.
Returning nil might skip further validation that could still be necessary. Confirm that a missing x5cs array is always valid in your scenario.


89-94: Check TPM-specific logic.
The code specifically calls tpmParseAIKAttCA only if attestationType == string(metadata.AttCA). Ensure that all expected TPM attestation types are covered and tested.


108-126: loopOrdinalNumber method is well-structured.
The switch statement neatly handles ordinal variants.


33-33: Clarify reason for returning nil.
When no metadata entry is found, yet the code returns nil here. Verify that skipping validation is the intended behavior, especially for AAGUIDs with no metadata.

✅ Verification successful

Let me gather more context about the validation logic by checking the surrounding code.


Let me check the validation configuration methods to understand the complete validation logic.


Let me check the memory provider's initialization to understand how these validation flags are configured.


Based on the gathered context, I can now provide the final response:

The return behavior for missing metadata entries is correct and well-documented

The code follows a clear validation strategy where:

  • For zero AAGUID: Returns nil if GetValidateEntryPermitZeroAAGUID is true
  • For missing entries: Returns error if GetValidateEntry is true, nil otherwise
  • Default configuration (seen in cached provider) enforces validation (WithValidateEntry(true)) and doesn't permit zero AAGUID (WithValidateEntryPermitZeroAAGUID(false))

The error message is appropriate as it clearly indicates the validation failure reason for missing metadata entries.
