Brad Fitzpatrick b0b1f0f566 go.mod: bump all direct deps to latest
This is the output of the new misc/bumpdeps tool (#21325) run with
--exclude-newer-than-days=7, which asks proxy.golang.org for the newest
version of every direct dependency, ignoring releases younger than a
week in favor of the newest older one, and runs a single go get.
gvisor tracks its "go" branch, wireguard-go its "tailscale" branch,
and golang-x-crypto its "main" branch (the proxy's @latest for it is
a stray v0.91.0 tag from 2024 that predates our acme fork changes).
Indirect deps only moved as far as MVS pulled them.

The week-long cooldown held back gvisor, the gokrazy modules,
chromedp/cdproto, and hashicorp/raft-boltdb/v2, whose only newer
versions are days old; they'll come along next time.

Several upstream changes needed small fixes: nfpm's PrepareForPackager
takes a modification time now (a zero time keeps the old behavior of
using the source file's mtime), esbuild's ServeOptions.Port became an
int while ServeResult.Host became a Hosts slice, client-go's
EventRecorder.Eventf is now recognized by vet as a printf wrapper (so
the k8s-operator calls that passed a preformatted message switch to
Event), google/nftables v0.3.0 reads back the kernel's
NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_SPECIFIED flag into a new expr.NAT.Specified field
(so the port map DNAT rule now sets it too or findRule never matches
the rule it just added), and staticcheck v0.8.1 knows encoding/json/v2's
embed tag option, so the two SA5008 suppressions for it are gone.

Two tests assumed old library behavior. client-go's fake clientset now
replays existing objects when a watch starts, as a real apiserver does,
so the k8s-proxy config test must tolerate the loader ignoring that
no-op event before the real reload arrives. fyne.io/systray moved its
dbusmenu object path and answers the first GetLayout with depth 1, so
the systray test now finds the menu via the item's Menu property and
polls until the submenu entries appear.

Then make tidy, make updatedeps, and make kube-generate-all (the
controller-gen bump to v0.22.0 changes doc strings, stops listing
top-level metadata as required, and crd-ref-docs now marks optional
fields).

Development of tsidp has been moved to https://github.com/tailscale/tsidp and it is no longer maintained here. Please visit the new repository to see the latest updates, file an issue, or contribute.

tsidp - Tailscale OpenID Connect (OIDC) Identity Provider

status: community project

tsidp is an OIDC Identity Provider (IdP) server that integrates with your Tailscale network. It allows you to use Tailscale identities for authentication in applications that support OpenID Connect, enabling single sign-on (SSO) capabilities within your tailnet.

Prerequisites

  • A Tailscale network (tailnet) with magicDNS and HTTPS enabled
  • A Tailscale authentication key from your tailnet
  • Docker installed on your system

Installation using Docker

Pre-built image

A pre-built tsidp image exists at tailscale/tsidp:unstable.

Building from Source

# Clone the Tailscale repository
git clone https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale.git
cd tailscale

# Build and publish to your own registry
make publishdevtsidp REPO=ghcr.io/yourusername/tsidp TAGS=v0.0.1 PUSH=true

Running the Container

Replace YOUR_TAILSCALE_AUTHKEY with your Tailscale authentication key:

docker run -d \
  --name tsidp \
  -p 443:443 \
  -e TS_AUTHKEY=YOUR_TAILSCALE_AUTHKEY \
  -e TAILSCALE_USE_WIP_CODE=1 \
  -v tsidp-data:/var/lib/tsidp \
  ghcr.io/yourusername/tsidp:v0.0.1 \
  tsidp --hostname=idp --dir=/var/lib/tsidp

Verify Installation

docker logs tsidp

Visit https://idp.tailnet.ts.net to confirm the service is running.

Usage Example: Proxmox Integration

Here's how to configure Proxmox to use tsidp for authentication:

  1. In Proxmox, navigate to Datacenter > Realms > Add OpenID Connect Server

  2. Configure the following settings:

    • Issuer URL: https://idp.velociraptor.ts.net
    • Realm: tailscale (or your preferred name)
    • Client ID: unused
    • Client Key: unused
    • Default: true
    • Autocreate users: true
    • Username claim: email
  3. Set up user permissions:

    • Go to Datacenter > Permissions > Groups
    • Create a new group (e.g., "tsadmins")
    • Click Permissions in the sidebar
    • Add Group Permission
    • Set Path to / for full admin access or scope as needed
    • Set the group and role
    • Add Tailscale-authenticated users to the group

Configuration Options

The tsidp server supports several command-line flags:

  • --verbose: Enable verbose logging
  • --port: Port to listen on (default: 443)
  • --local-port: Allow requests from localhost
  • --use-local-tailscaled: Use local tailscaled instead of tsnet
  • --hostname: tsnet hostname
  • --dir: tsnet state directory

Environment Variables

  • TS_AUTHKEY: Your Tailscale authentication key (required)
  • TS_HOSTNAME: Hostname for the tsidp server (default: "idp", Docker only)
  • TS_STATE_DIR: State directory (default: "/var/lib/tsidp", Docker only)
  • TAILSCALE_USE_WIP_CODE: Enable work-in-progress code (default: "1")
