v1.3.0

We are thrilled to announce the release of Ory Kratos v1.3.0! This release includes significant updates, enhancements, and fixes to improve your experience with Ory Kratos.

Enhance your sign-in experience with Identifier First Authentication. This feature allows users to first identify themselves (e.g., by providing their email or username) and then proceed with the chosen authentication method, whether it be OTP code, passkeys, passwords, or social login. By streamlining the sign-in process, users can select the authentication method that best suits their needs, reducing friction and enhancing security. Identifier First Authentication improves user flow and reduces the likelihood of errors, resulting in a more user-friendly and efficient login experience.

The UI for OpenID Connect (OIDC) account linking has been improved to provide better user guidance and error messages during the linking process. As a result, account linking error rates have dropped significantly, making it easier for users to link multiple identities (e.g., social login and email-based accounts) to the same profile. This improvement enhances user convenience, reduces support inquiries, and offers a seamless multi-account experience.

You can now use Salesforce as an identity provider, expanding the range of supported identity providers. This integration allows organizations already using Salesforce for identity management to leverage their existing infrastructure, simplifying user management and enhancing the authentication experience.

Social sign-in has been enhanced with better detection and handling of double-submit issues, especially for platforms like Facebook and Apple mobile login. These changes make the social login process more reliable, reducing errors and improving the user experience. Additionally, Ory Kratos now supports social providers in credential discovery, offering more flexibility during sign-up and sign-in flows.

One-Time Password (OTP) MFA has been improved with more robust handling of code-based authentication. The enhancements ensure a smoother flow when using OTP for multi-factor authentication (MFA), providing clearer guidance to users and improving fallback mechanisms. These updates help to prevent users from being locked out due to misconfigurations or errors during the MFA process, increasing security without compromising user convenience.

• Deprecated via Parameter for SMS 2FA: The via parameter is now deprecated when performing SMS 2FA. If not included, users will see all their phone/email addresses to perform the flow. This parameter will be removed in a future version. Ensure your identity schema has the appropriate code configuration for passwordless or 2FA login.

• Endpoint Change: The /admin/session/.../extend endpoint will now return 204 No Content for new Ory Network projects. Returning 200 with the session body will be deprecated in future versions.

• SDK Enhancements: Added new methods and support for additional actions in the SDK, improving integration capabilities.

• Password Migration Hook: Added a password migration hook to facilitate migrating passwords where the hash is unavailable, easing the transition to Ory Kratos.

• Partially Failing Batch Inserts: When batch-inserting multiple identities, conflicts or validation errors of a subset of identities in the batch still allow the rest of the identities to be inserted. The returned JSON contains the error details that led to the failure.

• Security Fixes: Fixed a security vulnerability where the code method did not respect the highest_availablesetting. Refer to the security advisory for more details.

• Session Extension Issues: Fixed issues related to session extension to prevent long response times on /session/whoami when extending sessions simultaneously.

• OIDC and Social Sign-In: Fixed UI and error handling for OpenID Connect and social sign-in flows, improving the overall experience.

• Credential Identifier Handling: Corrected handling of code credential identifiers, ensuring proper detection of phone numbers and correct functioning of SMS/email MFA.

• Concurrent Updates for Webhooks: Fixed concurrent map update issues for webhook headers, improving webhook reliability.

• Passwordless & 2FA Login: Before upgrading, ensure your identity schema has the appropriate code configuration when using the code method for passwordless or 2FA login.

• Code Method for 2FA: If you use the code method for 2FA or 1FA login but haven't configured the code identifier, set selfservice.methods.code.config.missing_credential_fallback_enabled to true to avoid user lockouts.

We hope you enjoy the new features and improvements in Ory Kratos v1.3.0. Please remember to leave a GitHub star and check out our other open-source projects. Your feedback is valuable to us, so join the Ory community and help us shape the future of identity management.

Breaking Changes

When using two-step registration, it was previously possible to send method=profile:back to get to the previous screen. This feature was not documented in the SDK API yet. Going forward, please instead use screen=previous.

Please note that the via parameter is deprecated when performing SMS 2FA. It will be removed in a future version. If the parameter is not included in the request, the user will see all their phone/email addresses from which to perform the flow.

Before upgrading, ensure that your identity schema has the appropriate code configuration when using the code method for passwordless or 2fa login.

If you are using the code method for 2FA login already, or you are using it for 1FA login but have not yet configured the code identifier, set selfservice.methods.code.config.missing_credential_fallback_enabled to true to prevent users from being locked out.

Bug Fixes

• Add continue with only for json browser requests (#4002) (e0a4010)

• Add fallback to providerLabel (#3999) (d26f204):

  This adds a fallback to the provider label when trying to register a duplicate identifier with an oidc.

  Current error message:

  Signing in will link your account to "[email protected]" at provider "". If you do not wish to link that account, please start a new login flow.

  The label represents an optional label for the UI, but in my case it's always empty. I suggest we fallback to the provider when the label is not present. In case the label is present, the behaviour won't change.

  Fallback to provider:

  Signing in will link your account to "[email protected]" at provider "google". If you do not wish to link that account, please start a new login flow.

v1.2.0

Ory Kratos v1.2 is the most complete, scalable, and secure open-source identity server available. We are thrilled to announce its release!

This release introduces two major features: two-step registration and full PassKey with resident key support.

Passkeys provide a secure and convenient authentication method, eliminating the need for passwords while ensuring strong security. With this release, we have added support for resident keys, enabling offline authentication. Credential discovery allows users to link existing passkeys to their Ory account seamlessly.

passkeys.webm

Two-step registration improves the user experience by dividing the registration process into two steps. Users first enter their identity traits, and then choose a credential method for authentication, resulting in a streamlined process. This feature is especially useful when enabling multiple authentication strategies, as it eliminates the need to repeat identity traits for each strategy.

The 107 commits since v1.1 include several improvements:

• Webhooks now carry session information if available.
• Transient Payloads are now available across all self-service flows.
• Sign in with Twitter is now available.
• Sign in with LinkedIn now includes an additional v2 provider compatible with LinkedIn's new SSO API.
• Two-Step Registration: An improved registration experience that separates entering profile information from choosing authentication methods.
• User Credentials Meta-Information can now be included on the list endpoint.
• Social Sign-In is now resilient to double-submit issues common with Facebook and Apple mobile login.

Two-Step Registration Enabled by Default: This is now the default setting. To disable, set selfservice.flows.registration.enable_legacy_one_step to true.

• Improved account linking and credential discovery during sign-up.
• The return_to parameter is now respected in OIDC API flows.
• Adjustments to database indices.
• Enhanced error messages for security violations.
• Improved SDK types.
• The verification and verification_ui hooks are now available in the login flow.
• Webhooks now contain the correct identity state in the after-verification hook chain.

We are doing this survey to find out how we can support self-hosted Ory users better. We strive to provide you with the best product and service possible and your feedback will help us understand what we're doing well and where we can improve to better meet your needs. We truly value your opinion and thank you in advance for taking the time to share your thoughts with us!

Fill out the survey now!

Breaking Changes

This feature enables two-step registration per default. Two-step registration is a significantly improved sign up flow and recommended when using more than one sign up methods. To disable two-step registration, set selfservice.flows.registration.enable_legacy_one_step to true. This value defaults to false.

Bug Fixes

• Respect return_to in OIDC API flow error case (#3893) (e8f1bcb):

  • fix: respect return_to in OIDC API flow error case

  This fix ensures that we redirect the user to the return_to URL
  when an error occurs during the OIDC login for native flows.

  Native flows are initialized through the API, and the browser
  URL is retrieved from a 422 response after a POST to submit the
  login flow. Successful OIDC flows already returned the code to
  the return_to URL. Now, unsuccessful flows return the flow with
  the current flow ID (which might have changed), so that the caller
  can retrieve the full flow and act accordingly.

If a user registers with a password and later signs in with a social account sharing the same email, new screens make account linking straightforward, enhancing user convenience and reducing support inquiries.
• Passwordless "Magic Code": Introduce a passwordless login method with "Magic Code," which sends a one-time code to the user's email for sign-up and login. This method can also serve as a fallback when users forget their password or their social login is unavailable, streamlining the login process and improving user accessibility.
• Session to JWT Conversion: Convert an Ory Session Cookie or Ory Session Token into a JSON Web Token (JWT), providing more flexibility in handling sessions and integrating with other systems. This feature allows for seamless authentication and authorization processes across different platforms and services.

Note: To ensure a seamless upgrade experience with minimal impact, some of these features are gated behind the feature_flags config parameter, allowing controlled deployment and testing.

• Better reliability when sending out emails across different providers.
• Streamlining the HTTP API and improving related SDK methods.
• Better performance when calling the whoami API endpoint, updating identities, and listing identities.
• The performance of listing identities has significantly improved with the introduction of keyset pagination. Page pagination is still available but will be fully deprecated soon.
• Ability to list multiple identities in a batch call.
• Passkeys and WebAuthn now support multiple origins, useful when working with subdomains.
• The logout flow now redirects the user back to the return_to parameter set in the API call.
• When updating their settings, the user was sometimes incorrectly asked to confirm the changes by providing their password. This issue has now been fixed.
• When signing up with an account that already exists, the user will be shown a hint helping them sign in to their existing account.
• CORS configuration can now be hot-reloaded.
• The integration with Ory OAuth2 / Ory Hydra has improved for logout, login session management, verification, and recovery flows.
• A new passwordless method has been added: "Magic code". It sends a one-time code to the user's email during sign-up and log-in. This method can additionally be used as a fallback login method when the user forgets their password.
• Integration with social sign-in has improved, and it is now possible to use the email verified status from the social sign-in provider.
• Ory Elements and the default Ory Account Experience are now internationalized with translations.
• It is now possible to convert an Ory Session Cookie or Ory Session Token into a JSON Web Token.
• Recovery on native apps has improved significantly and no longer requires the user to switch to a browser for the recovery step.
• Administrators can now find users by their identifiers with fuzzy search - this feature is still in preview.
• Importing HMAC-hashed passwords is now possible.
• Webhooks can now update identity admin metadata.
• New screens have been added to make account linking possible when a user has registered with a password and later tries signing in with a social account sharing the same email.
• Ability to revoke all sessions of a user when they change their password.
• Webhooks are now available for all login, registration, and login methods, including Passkeys, TOTP, and others.
• The login screen now longer shows “ID” for the primary identifier, but instead extracts the correct label - for example, “Email” or “Username” from the Identity Schema.
• Login hints help users with guidance when they are unable to sign in (wrong social sign-in provider) but have an active account.
• Phone numbers can now be verified via an SMS gateway like Twilio.
• SMS OTP is now a two-factor option.

The following features have been shipped exclusively to Ory Network for this version:

• B2B SSO allows your customers to connect their LDAP / Okta / AD / … to your login. Ory selects the correct login provider based on the user’s email domain.
• Significantly better API performance for expensive API operations by specifying the desired consistency (strong, eventual).
• Finding users effortlessly with our new fuzzy search for credential identifiers available for the Identity List API.

v0.13.0

We’re excited to announce the release of Ory Kratos v0.13.0! This update brings many enhancements and fixes, improving the user experience and overall performance. In general, Ory Kratos is reaching complete API stability and we're adding some missing features next, paving the road to v1.0.

Ory Kratos serves over 500M users monthly in various companies, and is the backbone of the Ory Network (the best, cheapest, easiest way to run Ory).

Here are the highlights:

• We’ve added new social sign-in options with Patreon OIDC and LinkedIn providers, making it even easier for your users to register and log in. Furthermore, we’ve introduced a new admin API that allows you to remove specific 2nd factor credentials, giving you more control over your user accounts.
• Performance has been a key focus in this release. We’ve optimized the whoami calls, parallelized the getIdentity and getSession calls, and made asynchronous webhooks fully async. These improvements will result in faster response times and a smoother experience for your users. Additionally, we’ve implemented better tracing to help you diagnose and resolve issues more effectively.
• We’ve also made several updates to the webhook system. A new response.parse configuration has been introduced, allowing you to update identity data during registration. This includes admin/public metadata, identity traits, enabling/disabling identity, and modifying verified/recovery addresses. Please note that can_interrupt is now deprecated in favor of response.parse.
• Lastly, we’ve made several important fixes, such as resolving the wrong message ID on resend code buttons, implementing the offline scope as Google expects, and improving the OIDC flow on duplicate account registration. We’ve also added the ability to configure whether the system should notify unknown recipients when attempting to recover an account or verify an address, enhancing security with “anti-account-enumeration measures.”

We hope you enjoy these new features and improvements in Ory Kratos v0.13.0! All features are already live on the Ory Network - the simplest, fastest and most scalable way to run Ory.

Please note that the v0.12.0 release was skipped due to CI issues.

Head over to the changelog at https://github.com/ory/kratos/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md to read all the details. As always, we appreciate your feedback and support!

Breaking Changes

By default, Kratos no longer sends out these Emails. If you want to keep notifying unknown addresses (keep the current behavior), set selfservice.flows.recovery.notify_unknown_recipients to true for recovery, or selfservice.flows.verification.notify_unknown_recipients for verification flows.

v0.11.0

The 2022 winter release of Ory Kratos is here, and we are extremely excited to share with you some of the highlights included:

• Ory Kratos now supports verification and recovery codes, which replace are now the default strategy and should be used instead of magic links.
• Import of MD5-hashed passwords is now supported.
• Ory Kratos can now act as the login app for the Ory Hydra Consent & Login Flow using the oauth2_provider.url configuration value.
• Ory Kratos' SDK is now released as version 1. Learn more in the upgrade guide.
• New APIs are available to manage Ory Sessions.
• Ory Sessions now contain device information.
• Added all claims to the Social Sign-In data mapper as well as the option to customize admin and public metadata.
• Add webhooks that can block the request, useful to do some additional validation.
• Add asynchronous webhooks which do not block the request.
• A CLI helper to clean up stale data.

Please read the changelog carefully to identify changes which might affect you. Always test upgrading with a copy of your production system before applying the upgrade in production.

Breaking Changes

This patch changes the behavior of the recovery flow. It introduces a new strategy for account recovery that sends out short "one-time passwords" (code) that a user can use to prove ownership of their account and recovery access to it. This PR also updates the default recovery strategy to code.

This patch invalidates recovery flows initiated using the Admin API. Please re-generate any admin-generated recovery flows and tokens.

This is a breaking change, as it removes the courier.message_ttl config key and replaces it with a counter courier.message_retries.

Closes #402
Closes #1598

SDK Method getJsonSchema was renamed to getIdentitySchema.

Bug Fixes

• Active attribute based off IsActive checks (#2901) (bcbf68e)

• Add issuerURL for apple id (#2565) (2aeb0a2):

  No issuer url was specified when using the Apple ID provider,
  this forced usersers to manually enter it in the provider config.

  This PR adds the Apple ID issuer url to the provider simplifying the setup.
