I'm sorry to ask for this but I think pretty much all of the PHP will need to be redone. Let me know if you have any questions about the points below.

File uploading is a complicated feature and is hard to get right from a security perspective. From what I can see here there are no protections against path manipulation so this code introduces a vulnerability into the codebase.
New file uploading code should use the class created in my recent PR [Core] Create File Uploader class to standardize and validate file uploads in LORIS . There is an example of usage there. See also https://github.com/aces/Loris/pull/5234/files
This PR is also using non-standard DB operations (I think copied from genomic browser if I'm not mistaken). This isn't advised (genomic browser needs updating).

Additionally:

I don't think there's any purpose in using cryptographically unique identifiers here. Regular MySQL IDs are just fine.
Related: we don't need a new openssl dependency for generating secure random numbers. The code example you've used is four years old. random_int() is fine for such things.
You've committed two ZIP files that should be removed (I'd advise against using git add -A)
All new functions need type hints; new PHP files should declare strict types

I'd recommend refactoring the Issue Tracker to use Request and Response Interfaces in the newer style and from there making use of the new File Uploader class I linked.

maltheism · 2019-10-29T19:58:41Z

Hey @johnsaigle the reason I went with the code I did was because the issue_tracker module does need to be refactored. I thought it would be best to add the features before that task or it would make the task much bigger. I'm not sure how path manipulation would happen with this PR but I didn't see permission checks for the EditIssue.php and just used that as a template for the Attachment.php. I think refactoring after would be best for splitting the task into more easily reviewed PRs.
Also the UUIDs will be discussed at a LORIS meeting because there is a benefit to them that might be worthwhile or I wouldn't have done it.

johnsaigle · 2019-10-29T20:15:41Z

It's a reasonably-sized task but I think it makes sense to implement the Response/Request interfaces first so that you can use the File Upload class. I think this is better than adding more onto something that should be redone anyway.

The security of it goes beyond permission checks. You can look into some merged PRs labelled with "Security" if you want some background.

You've brought up UUIDs before (discussion begins here). I think the points from that thread still stand.

maltheism · 2019-10-29T20:18:30Z

@johnsaigle I spoke with @ridz1208 before writing the code. I even mentioned that PR in the discussion. I think there is a benefit and that I want to discuss at the Loris meeting.

johnsaigle · 2019-10-29T20:22:08Z

For sure we can discuss it further there.

Regardless of the UUID portion, I still think a lot of this will need to be refactored.

In the case that the UUID part continues, you'll need to update and commit the composer.lock file. It would also be good to use a specific version of the SSL dependency.

johnsaigle · 2019-10-30T14:14:38Z

Adding Needs Work due to the following points from my above review:

You've committed two ZIP files that should be removed (I'd advise against using git add -A)

All new functions need type hints; new PHP files should declare strict types

This PR is also using non-standard DB operations (I think copied from genomic browser if I'm not mistaken). This isn't advised (genomic browser needs updating).

These need to be fixed.

Everything else will be decided by further discussion.

christinerogers · 2019-10-30T14:20:12Z

feature change -> requires updates to module spec markdown and also Help text.
marking as Needs Documentation

johnsaigle · 2019-12-17T16:25:33Z

I think there is a benefit and that I want to discuss at the Loris meeting.

This has been discussed in a LORIS meeting as of Dec. 10. The PR is now in @driusan's court to review.

jesscall · 2020-01-15T21:28:06Z

I'm having issues manually testing this.
I believe it has something to do with this line and this other line. See #5839, I believe it wasn't removed during the cleanup

Thanks @driusan updated

driusan · 2020-02-27T20:22:12Z

This needs Travis to run on it to be merged

maltheism · 2020-02-27T20:24:38Z

@driusan how do I get travis to start again. I'm wondering if it's a GitHub issue.

driusan · 2020-02-27T20:29:47Z

No idea, all I know is that there's not even a yellow checkmark on the last 2 commits. Sometimes that means there was a GitHub hicup that can be fixed by closing and re-opening the PR, sometimes that means there's a conflict or misformed .travis.yml, and there are probably other potential reasons.

maltheism · 2020-02-27T20:31:10Z

@driusan resurrection of travis happened after closing & reopening.
