Now, /verify can return 401 or 403 depending on the user authentication.
Every public API endpoints and pages return 200 with error message in
JSON body or 401 if the user is not authorized.
This policy makes it complicated for an attacker to know what is the source of
the failure and hide server-side bugs (not returning 500), bugs being potential
threats.
Example 1: The user has validated first factor when accessing a service
protected by basic auth. When he tries to access another service protected
by second factor, he is redirected to second factor step to complete
authentication.
Example 2: The user has already validated second factor. When he access auth
service, he is redirected either to /loggedin page that displays an "already
logged in" page or to the URL provided in the "redirect" query parameter.
Client and server now have their own tsconfig so that the transpilation is only
done on the part that is being modified.
It also allows faster transpilation since tests are now excluded from tsconfig.
They are compiled by ts-node during unit tests execution.
