Add `maxResponseBytes` field to the AuthConfig CRD for all evaluators that make outbound HTTP requests: generic HTTP metadata, callbacks, OPA external policy, JWT/OIDC discovery, OAuth2 token introspection, OIDC UserInfo, and UMA. When set, response bodies are capped via io.LimitReader before reading/decoding, preventing unbounded memory consumption from unexpectedly large responses. For third-party libraries (go-oidc) that read response bodies internally, a maxResponseBytesRoundTripper limits bodies at the HTTP transport level. Also refactors NewClient to use a functional options pattern (WithTimeout, WithTracing, WithMaxResponseBytes) replacing the previous NewClientWithTracing/NewClientWithTracingAndMaxResponseBytes functions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Response-size protection is not reliably applied when tracing is disabled, so ordinary maxResponseBytes configurations may still allow unbounded response-body reads. This creates a concrete resource-consumption risk that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@docs/features.md`:
- Around line 445-451: Update the maxResponseBytes documentation to say
truncation can cause a decode error rather than always causing one, and clarify
that a decoder may successfully process the truncated response when the
remaining prefix is valid JSON. Preserve the surrounding authorization-policy
guidance and no-limit behavior.
In `@pkg/evaluators/authorization/opa.go`:
- Around line 267-272: Update the response-reading flow around io.ReadAll in
pkg/evaluators/authorization/opa.go lines 267-272 to detect bytes beyond
ext.MaxResponseBytes and return an error before compiling the policy, while
preserving unlimited reads when the limit is disabled. Add coverage in
pkg/evaluators/authorization/opa_test.go lines 266-283 using an oversized
response whose bounded prefix is valid Rego, and assert initialization fails.
In `@pkg/evaluators/metadata/uma.go`:
- Around line 166-170: Ensure the configured MaxResponseBytes value is applied
before NewUMAMetadata triggers UMA discovery, either by passing it into the
constructor or deferring discovery until initialization completes. Update the
constructor path and add a test using a response larger than the configured
limit to verify discovery enforces the cap.
In `@pkg/http/request_test.go`:
- Around line 744-776: Update both test cases around client.Get to create
requests with http.NewRequestWithContext using the existing context, execute
them through client.Do, and preserve the current error assertions. Replace
deferred resp.Body.Close calls with explicit ignored-error assignments where
appropriate, ensuring body-close errors are handled without changing test
behavior.
In `@pkg/http/request.go`:
- Around line 217-227: Update the client transport setup around
tracingRoundTripper and maxResponseBytesRoundTripper so it runs when either
tracingCtx or maxResponseBytes is configured. Build the base transport once,
apply the tracing wrapper only when tracingCtx is non-nil, and apply the
response-size wrapper independently whenever maxResponseBytes is positive.

Adds a
maxResponseBytesfield to the AuthConfig CRD for all evaluators that make outbound HTTP requests. When set, response bodies are capped viaio.LimitReaderbefore reading/decoding, preventing unbounded memory consumption from unexpectedly large responses.Covered evaluators

For evaluators where Authorino controls the response body read (HTTP metadata, OPA, OAuth2, UserInfo, UMA), the response body reader is wrapped with
io.LimitReader(resp.Body, maxResponseBytes)beforeio.ReadAllorjson.NewDecoder.For go-oidc (JWT/OIDC discovery and JWKS fetching), where the library reads response bodies internally, a
maxResponseBytesRoundTripperwraps the HTTP transport to limit every response body at the transport level.NewClientrefactorThe HTTP client factory in
pkg/httpwas refactored from three separate constructors (NewClient,NewClientWithTracing,NewClientWithTracingAndMaxResponseBytes) to a singleNewClient(opts ...Option)using a functional options pattern:WithTimeout(*int)— sets the client timeout in millisecondsWithTracing(context.Context)— enables OpenTelemetry trace propagationWithMaxResponseBytes(int64)— limits response bodies at the transport levelAll callers across the codebase were updated accordingly.
Important behavior note
When a response exceeds the limit, the body is truncated. For
application/jsonresponses, this produces malformed JSON that causes a decode error. The evaluator fails and the corresponding metadata/authorization result is absent from the auth pipeline. Depending on how downstream policies handle missing data, the request may be denied (safer default) or — if policies fall back to granting access on absence — inadvertently allowed.When
maxResponseBytesis omitted or set to0, no limit is applied (backward-compatible).Files changed
