Last access by a user should not change after masquerade as that user (D8)

Created on 22 March 2019, over 5 years ago
Updated 7 August 2024, 4 months ago

Problem/Motivation

When someone masquerading as other user, the last user entity got changes in last access time (by core's user_last_access_subscriber service)
To prevent changing user entity it needs to decorate this service

Issue we have on D7 we also have on D8.

Proposed resolution

- introduce configuration to manage behavior - masquerade.settings configuration's key update_user_last_access to TRUE and post update hook for existing sites
- decorate user_last_access_subscriber service to prevent updates
- decorate session_manager.metadata_bag service to prevent "session is started" checks, see comments #23 and #24

Remaining tasks

- review and do testing with other contrib modules
- commit

User interface changes

no

API changes

- Added \Drupal\masquerade\Session\MetadataBag with setMasquerade, getMasquerade, cleanMasquerade methods accessible from session->getMetadata() object
- Added configuration with update hoot to preserve existing behavior

Data model changes

Session flag now wrapped into own session bag with useful methods
