Sweep: OAuth with drf_social_oauth2 not working on Android/iOS

[mhd-medfa]

Issue

The OAuth authentication using drf_social_oauth2 is not functioning correctly in our Django project. Users are unable to properly authenticate and login using OAuth providers like Facebook and Google.

Steps to Reproduce

1. User clicks login with Facebook/Google button on login page
2. User is redirected to Facebook/Google consent page and approves app permissions
3. User gets redirected back to the app but is not logged in
4. Check the logs and see authentication failed errors from drf_social_oauth2

Expected Behavior

• User should be able to click the OAuth login button
• After approving permissions, user should be logged into the app automatically
• No auth errors should be present in logs

Root Cause

Potential causes:

• Invalid OAuth credentials configured for Facebook/Google login
• drf_social_oauth2 middleware not setup properly
• App whitelisting/validation not configured correctly in OAuth provider dashboards
• CSRF validation issue when redirecting back from OAuth provider

Proposed Fixes

• Double check OAuth credentials in project settings match app dashboards
• Review drf_social_oauth2 middleware setup and csrf_exempt configuration
• Ensure app domains/origins are correctly whitelisted in OAuth providers
• Try tweaking CSRF settings and OAuth2CallbackView csrf_exempt as workaround
• Consider simplifying overall OAuth implementation if complex customization needed

• iOS - AppAuth SDK

Let me know if any other details needed! Both backend and mobile app need to be reviewed to fix the OAuth issues.

Summaries of links found in the content:

https://python-social-auth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration/django.html:

The page is titled "Django Framework — Python Social Auth documentation" and provides documentation on configuring the Django framework for the Python Social Auth application. It covers topics such as installation, registering the application, configuring the database, authentication backends, URLs entries, templates, template context processors, personalized configuration, ORMs, JSON field support, exceptions middleware, and Django Admin. The page does not directly address the specific problem of OAuth authentication using drf_social_oauth2 in a Django project. However, it does provide information that may be relevant to troubleshooting the issue, such as configuring authentication backends and reviewing middleware setup.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/platform-integration/communication/authentication?tabs=android:

The page provides information on how to use the .NET MAUI IWebAuthenticator interface for browser-based authentication flows. It explains that the interface allows you to start authentication flows that listen for a callback to the app. The page also mentions that the default implementation of the IWebAuthenticator interface is available through the WebAuthenticator.Default property. It provides an overview of why a server backend is recommended for authentication and explains how to set up the WebAuthenticator functionality on Android, iOS/Mac Catalyst, and Windows platforms. The page includes code snippets demonstrating how to use the WebAuthenticator API to authenticate users and handle authentication callbacks. It also discusses platform-specific differences in the web authentication API and provides information on using Apple Sign In. Additionally, the page explains how to use the WebAuthenticator API with an ASP.NET core server backend and provides a sample code for a custom mobile auth controller. The page does not provide specific information on fixing OAuth issues in Django or using the drf_social_oauth2 library.

https://github.com/RealmTeam/django-rest-framework-social-oauth2/issues/226:

The page discusses an issue with OAuth authentication using the drf_social_oauth2 library in a Django project. The problem is that users are unable to properly authenticate and login using OAuth providers like Facebook and Google. The steps to reproduce the issue are provided, along with the expected behavior and potential root causes. The proposed fixes include checking OAuth credentials, reviewing middleware setup, whitelisting app domains, and tweaking CSRF settings. The page also provides links to relevant documentation and related issues. The SDKs mentioned for Android and iOS are AppAuth SDK.

Step 2: 🧐 Snippet Analysis

From looking through the relevant snippets, I decided to make the following modifications:

File Path

Proposed Changes

backend/backend/settings.py

- Check the OAuth credentials for Facebook and Google. If they are not correct, update them with the correct ones. The credentials are stored in the variables SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_KEY, SOCIAL_AUTH_FACEBOOK_SECRET, SOCIAL_AUTH_GOOGLE_OAUTH2_KEY, and SOCIAL_AUTH_GOOGLE_OAUTH2_SECRET. - Review the drf_social_oauth2 middleware setup. If it's not set up properly, correct it. The middleware is defined in the MIDDLEWARE and AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS variables. - Check the CSRF settings and OAuth2CallbackView csrf_exempt configuration. If they are not configured correctly, update them. The CSRF settings are defined in the MIDDLEWARE variable and the OAuth2CallbackView csrf_exempt configuration is not present in the current settings.py file. - Check the app domains/origins. If they are not correctly whitelisted in OAuth providers, update them. The app domains/origins are defined in the ALLOWED_HOSTS and CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS variables.

Here is the 1st review

Thanks for your contribution. Here are a few changes that need to be made:

• In backend/backend/settings.py, you've added drf_social_oauth2.backends.DjangoOAuth2 to AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS twice (lines 115-116). Please remove the duplicate entry.

Please make these changes and update the pull request. Let me know if you have any questions.
