Description

Since yesterday (June 25) I can't log in with Firefox 67. I go to auth.curoverse.com, which redirects me to Google, after logging in to Google, it sends me to auth.curoverse.com, at this point it is supposed to send me back to the API server, but instead it sends me back to Google.

The broken flow:

302 auth.curoverse.com/users/auth/google_oauth2/callback?
302 auth.curoverse.com/auth/josh_id/authorize?
302 auth.curoverse.com/auth/josh_id/authorize?
302 auth.curoverse.com/users/sign_in
302 auth.curoverse.com/users/auth/google_oauth2

Strangely, the 1st authorize sends it back to the exact same URL. The cookie is different between the requests. Apparently the 1st request should have sent it to the API server at 4xphq.arvadosapi.com/auth/joshid/callback .

Logging in with Chromium 73 works.

The working flow:

302 accounts.google.com/signin/oauth/consent
302 auth.curoverse.com/users/auth/google_oauth2/callback
302 auth.curoverse.com/auth/josh_id/authorize
302 4xphq.arvadosapi.com/auth/joshid/callback

So I don't really know why this still works for most people. My best theory is that there is some bug or race condition relating to the devise "session timeout" feature that causes it to be bypassed in the majority of cases.

15426-login-loop LGTM (tested locally on arvbox). I personally think that explicitly logging out after redirecting is a much more elegant solution. Thanks!
