Summary of Changes

Hello @havetisyan, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly upgrades the system's capability to manage "system-allowed" roles within the OAuth token scope. Previously limited to a single, exact role, the system can now recognize multiple such roles and interpret wildcard patterns in their definitions. This enhancement provides greater flexibility in configuring access control, allowing administrators to define broader categories of roles that bypass certain domain limits, thereby streamlining the management of privileged access.

Highlights

  • Multiple System-Allowed Roles: The system now supports defining multiple roles as "system-allowed" instead of being limited to a single one.
  • Wildcard Support for Roles: System-allowed roles can now include wildcard characters (''), enabling more flexible pattern matching (e.g., 'domain:role.' or '*:role.admin').
  • New 'isSystemAllowedRoles' Method: A dedicated utility method was introduced to handle the logic for checking if a given role matches any of the configured system-allowed roles, incorporating both exact and wildcard matching.
  • Enhanced Test Coverage: Comprehensive unit tests have been added to validate the new wildcard and multiple role functionalities, covering various edge cases and patterns.

Code Review

This pull request extends the system allowed role support to handle multiple values and wildcards. The changes are mostly in OAuthTokenScope.java to switch from a single string to a set for allowed roles and to implement wildcard matching. The new functionality is well-tested with new unit tests in OAuthTokenScopeTest.java and an integration test in ZTSImplTest.java.

My main feedback is on the implementation of the wildcard-to-regex conversion in isSystemAllowedRoles. The current approach is susceptible to bugs if role names contain regex metacharacters (like '.'), potentially leading to overly permissive matching. I've suggested a more robust implementation to address this security concern. Otherwise, the changes look good and align with the PR's objective.
