Derek Higgins c9dfd26385 fix(auth): allow unauthenticated access to health and version endpoints
The AuthenticationMiddleware was blocking all requests without an
Authorization header, including health and version endpoints that are
needed by monitoring tools, load balancers, and Kubernetes probes.

This commit adds a `require_authentication` parameter to the @webmethod
decorator (defaults to True). Endpoints can opt out of authentication by
setting `require_authentication=False`. The /health and /version endpoints
now use this parameter to allow unauthenticated access.

Changes:
- Add `require_authentication` field to WebMethod dataclass
- Update @webmethod decorator to accept `require_authentication` parameter
- Mark /health and /version endpoints with `require_authentication=False`
- Update middleware to check webmethod.require_authentication dynamically

Closes: #3735

class AuthenticationMiddleware:
"""Middleware that authenticates requests using configured authentication provider.
This middleware:
1. Extracts the Bearer token from the Authorization header
2. Uses the configured auth provider to validate the token
3. Extracts user attributes from the provider's response
4. Makes these attributes available to the route handlers for access control
Unauthenticated Access:
Endpoints can opt out of authentication by setting require_authentication=False
in their @webmethod decorator. This is typically used for operational endpoints
like /health and /version to support monitoring, load balancers, and observability tools.
The middleware supports multiple authentication providers through the AuthProvider interface:
- Kubernetes: Validates tokens against the Kubernetes API server
- Custom: Validates tokens against a custom endpoint
Authentication Request Format for Custom Auth Provider:
```json
{
"api_key": "the-api-key-extracted-from-auth-header",
"request": {
"path": "/models/list",
"headers": {
"content-type": "application/json",
"user-agent": "..."
// All headers except Authorization
},
"params": {
"limit": ["100"],
"offset": ["0"]
// Query parameters as key -> list of values
}
}
}
```
Expected Auth Endpoint Response Format:
```json
{
"access_attributes": { // Structured attribute format
"roles": ["admin", "user"],
"teams": ["ml-team", "nlp-team"],
"projects": ["llama-3", "project-x"],
"namespaces": ["research"]
},
"message": "Optional message about auth result"
}
```
Token Validation:
Each provider implements its own token validation logic:
- Kubernetes: Uses TokenReview API to validate service account tokens
- Custom: Sends token to custom endpoint for validation
Attribute-Based Access Control:
The attributes returned by the auth provider are used to determine which
resources the user can access. Resources can specify required attributes
using the access_attributes field. For a user to access a resource:
1. All attribute categories specified in the resource must be present in the user's attributes
2. For each category, the user must have at least one matching value
If the auth provider doesn't return any attributes, the user will only be able to
access resources that don't have access_attributes defined.
