Update BrowserStack access key #2025

Closed seav closed 6 years ago

Proposed changes in this pull request

Why I made this change

I received an email from BrowserStack saying that they have refreshed my access key as a precaution due to a security issue:

We were just made aware (by a security researcher) of a potential risk to one of our systems which contains event logs.

While no personally identifiable information is contained in these logs, we would like to ensure that our platform continues to adhere to the highest standards of security and privacy. We have taken proactive measures to ensure this, as described below:

  • Your access key has been refreshed. Your old key will be valid until 14:00 UTC on Saturday 24th March 2018. You can get your new access key by navigating to your Account Settings page.

  • As an additional precaution, ongoing local testing connections have been disconnected to ensure that your local connections use the new key.

Please make appropriate changes to your automation scripts to reflect the refreshed key.

Description of the change

I have updated .travis.yml to use the new access key.

How someone else can test the change

I will run a test build on Travis using BrowserStack. If that passes, then this PR should be OK.

When should this PR be merged

ASAP. Without this PR, our Travis builds for pushes to the master branch will fail.

Risks

None.

Follow-up actions

None.

Checklist (for reviewing)

General

Is this PR explained thoroughly? All code changes must be accounted for in the PR description.

Is the PR labeled correctly? It should have the migration label if a new migration is added.

Is the risk level assessment sufficient? The risks section should contain all risks that might be introduced with the PR and which actions we need to take to mitigate these risks. Possible risks are database migrations, new libraries that need to be installed or changes to deployment scripts.

Functionality

Are all requirements met? Compare implemented functionality with the requirements specification.

Does the UI work as expected? There should be no Javascript errors in the console; all resources should load. There should be no unexpected errors. Deliberately try to break the feature to find out if there are corner cases that are not handled.

Code

Do you fully understand the introduced changes to the code? If not ask for clarification, it might uncover ways to solve a problem in a more elegant and efficient way.

Does the PR introduce any inefficient database requests? Use the debug server to check for duplicate requests.

Are all necessary strings marked for translation? All strings that are exposed to users via the UI must be marked for translation.

Is the code documented sufficiently? Large and complex classes, functions or methods must be annotated with comments following our code-style guidelines.

Has the scalability of this change been evaluated?

Is there a maintenance plan in place?

Tests

Are there sufficient test cases? Ensure that all components are tested individually; models, forms, and serializers should be tested in isolation even if a test for a view covers these components.

If this is a bug fix, are tests for the issue in place? There must be a test case for the bug to ensure the issue won’t regress. Make sure that the tests break without the new code to fix the issue.

If this is a new feature or a significant change to an existing feature? has the manual testing spreadsheet been updated with instructions for manual testing?

Security

Confirm this PR doesn't commit any keys, passwords, tokens, usernames, or other secrets.

Are all UI and API inputs run through forms or serializers?

Are all external inputs validated and sanitized appropriately?

Does all branching logic have a default case?

Does this solution handle outliers and edge cases gracefully?

Are all external communications secured and restricted to SSL?

Documentation

Are changes to the UI documented in the platform docs? If this PR introduces new platform site functionality or changes existing ones, the changes must be documented in the Cadasta Platform Documentation.

Are changes to the API documented in the API docs? If this PR introduces new API functionality or changes existing ones, the changes must be documented in the API docs.

Are reusable components documented? If this PR introduces components that are relevant to other developers (for instance a mixin for a view or a generic form) they should be documented in the Wiki.
