Description Yadan Pei 2020-01-13 09:30:02 UTC
Description of problem:
normal user view project metrics on Home -> Project -> Dashboard, it reports No datapoints found and all GET requests return 403 Forbidden. The issue is not reproduced by cluster-admin user

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.4.0-0.nightly-2020-01-12-221811

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. normal user create a project and add application, make sure some pods are running 
$ oc get pods -n ui1-project1 | grep Running
perl-1-bpks9            1/1     Running     0          95m
php-659cf5c84b-qgqbk    1/1     Running     0          36m
ruby-8486cb7467-5thrp   1/1     Running     0          36m
2. Check project status at Home -> Projects -> Dashboard


Actual results:
2. metrics in Utilization all report No datapoints found, GET request returns 403 Forbidden
Request URL: https://<console_route>/api/prometheus/api/v1/query_range?start=1578903086.444&end=1578906686.444&step=60&query=sum%28pod%3Acontainer_fs_usage_bytes%3Asum%7Bcontainer%3D%22%22%2Cpod%21%3D%22%22%2Cnamespace%3D%27ui1-project2%27%7D%29+BY+%28namespace%29


Expected results:
2. normal user should have permission to view metrics

Comment 5 David Taylor 2020-02-05 15:15:27 UTC
I was able to reproduce this using a 4.3 cluster which is needed at this time as workaround to:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1794885
Prometheus and Alertmanager services returning 403 errors, breaking console metrics

Logged in as kube:admin, Projects -> Project Details, Utilization dashboard card shows graphs/data
Logged in as test:test, Projects -> Project Details, Utilization dashboard card shows 'Not available' & 'No datapoints found.'

Logged in as kube:admin, I see only 2 404 errors (see attached)
Logged in as test:test, I see several 403 errors (see attached)
- Not sure if errors due to running 4.4 code on top of 4.3 cluster, or part of the root cause

Debugging the error I see: "Error: Prometheus URL is not available at http://0.0.0.0:9000/static/main-0a3c6a98c951...."

Agree that normal user should be able to access '/api/prometheus/api/v1/query_range', as Prometheus docs states: "It is presumed that untrusted users have access to the Prometheus HTTP endpoint and logs. They have access to all time series information contained in the database, plus a variety of operational/debugging information. 
It is also presumed that only trusted users have the ability to change the command line, configuration file, rule files and other aspects of the runtime environment of Prometheus and other components."

Comment 6 David Taylor 2020-02-05 15:45:51 UTC
Issue seems to be here: https://github.com/openshift/console/blob/master/frontend/public/actions/dashboards.ts#L100
When logged in as test:test, window.SERVER_FLAGS.prometheusTenancyBaseURL and window.SERVER_FLAGS.prometheusBaseURL are empty strings
When logged in as kube:admin, these window.SERVER_FLAGS are set
Notice they are being set in server/server.go.

Comment 7 Samuel Padgett 2020-02-05 19:00:02 UTC
I don't believe that the project dashboard is passing the namespace with the query, so we're not hitting the prometheus tenancy endpoint.

Comment 8 Samuel Padgett 2020-02-05 19:02:54 UTC
Note that metrics are entirely broken by bug 1794885, but there is an additional problem specific to the project dashboard for normal users.

Comment 9 Rastislav Wagner 2020-02-06 13:52:21 UTC
the namespace passing got lost in https://github.com/openshift/console/pull/3790

Comment 11 Yadan Pei 2020-02-07 05:47:24 UTC
Now normal user can view project metrics successfully, charts in Utilization are shown correctly.

Verified on 4.4.0-0.nightly-2020-02-06-230833
