Summary (AI generated)

  • Remove the incorrect isAdminForced check that treated any enrolled TOTP factor as a platform-admin spoof bypass.
  • Use the existing verify_mfa() RPC in the auth guard so aal1 users with MFA must complete the challenge before protected routes load.
  • Keep the admin-forced path working: verify_mfa() still returns true for active platform_impersonation_sessions minted by /private/log_as.
  • Add unit tests for enrolled TOTP challenge, impersonation bypass, and aal2 pass-through.

Motivation (AI generated)

After a normal user enrolls TOTP, the auth guard skipped the aal1 to aal2 MFA challenge whenever session.user.factors contained a TOTP factor. That let users reach the dashboard at aal1 while backend RLS and APIs still required aal2 (verify_mfa()), causing 401s such as getAllDashboard failures for orgs with enforcing_2fa.

Business Impact (AI generated)

Users in MFA-enforced orgs are redirected to complete MFA before console routes load, matching backend expectations and preventing confusing 401 errors after login. Platform-admin support spoof via log_as remains unchanged.

Test Plan (AI generated)

  • bun run test:unit -- tests/auth-mfa-guard.unit.test.ts
  • CI green on PR
  • CodeRabbit review threads cleared

Review in cubic

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved multi-factor authentication checks during sign-in. If verification fails, returns an error, or the assurance level cannot be retrieved, users are redirected to the login page with their intended destination preserved.
    • Users whose MFA verification succeeds can continue, and sessions already at the required assurance level proceed without another verification.
    • Assurance-level lookup errors also redirect to login while preserving the page the user was trying to reach.

The auth guard used any TOTP factor on the session user as a signal to
skip the aal1 to aal2 challenge. That let normal MFA-enrolled users
reach protected routes at aal1, causing 401s when org enforcing_2fa
and verify_mfa() RLS blocked API calls.

Use the existing verify_mfa() RPC instead, which only bypasses MFA for
active platform-admin impersonation sessions registered by log_as.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The auth guard redirects to /login with the target path when assurance lookup or MFA verification fails. During aal1-to-aal2 elevation, it calls verify_mfa. Unit tests cover these outcomes and aal2 access.

Changes

MFA assurance guard

Layer / File(s) Summary
Server-side MFA assurance check
src/modules/auth.ts
The guard redirects to /login with the target path when assurance lookup fails. During aal1-to-aal2 elevation, it calls verify_mfa and redirects when the RPC returns an error or hasMfaAssurance is false. Admin-forced TOTP users follow the same verification flow.
MFA guard test coverage
tests/auth-mfa-guard.unit.test.ts
A mocked context and router harness tests failed and successful verification, assurance lookup errors, and aal2 sessions that proceed without an RPC call.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Suggested reviewers: rihoarvutikonto

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to efc54

The MFA guard now checks assurance before allowing protected routes, while valid impersonation sessions remain supported. No merge-blocking issue is established.

Two unique issues in this guard rewrite — not duplicates of the CodeRabbit walkthrough.

1. src/modules/auth.ts — AAL lookup still fails open

When supabase.auth.mfa.getAuthenticatorAssuranceLevel() returns mfaError, the guard still returns without calling next(). Vue Router then continues into the authed route. That is the same class of bypass this PR is closing: TOTP enrollment used to skip the aal1→aal2 redirect; now any AAL RPC error does too.

Fail closed on mfaError the same way you already do on verifyMfaError:

return next({ path: '/login', query: { to: to.fullPath } })

2. tests/auth-mfa-guard.unit.test.ts — impersonation case does not encode impersonation

allows active platform-admin impersonation sessions at aal1 only stubs verify_mfa → true. There is no admin session flag, no factor distinction, and no assertion that a normal TOTP-enrolled user is denied. If verify_mfa is wrong, this test still passes and the original bypass is back. Drive the RPC from a real impersonation claim (or assert factors + admin) instead of a boolean the test itself supplies.

it.concurrent plus module-level vi.mock('~/services/supabase') + AsyncLocalStorage is also racy: the mock factory reads getContext() at call time, but concurrent tests share one mocked module.

AAL lookup still fails open, and the impersonation test does not encode impersonation. Two file-level notes below.

Comment thread src/modules/auth.ts Outdated
Comment thread tests/auth-mfa-guard.unit.test.ts Outdated
Treat getAuthenticatorAssuranceLevel failures like verify_mfa errors:
redirect enrolled MFA users to /login instead of continuing at aal1.

Rename the misleading impersonation unit test and add coverage for
AAL lookup failures. Impersonation remains covered by verify_mfa RPC
and jwt-mfa-assurance backend tests.

🟡 Minor · Add coverage for verify_mfa RPC errors. · auth-mfa-guard.unit.test.ts:177-197

tests/auth-mfa-guard.unit.test.ts:177-197
🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add coverage for verify_mfa RPC errors.

The shared fixture returns { data: false, error: null }, so the false-result test does not execute the verifyMfaError branch. A regression that calls next() when verify_mfa returns an RPC error would pass all tests in this suite. Add a test that returns an error and asserts the /login redirect with to: '/dashboard'.

Suggested fix

+        if (name === 'is_account_disabled')
