credentialPattern excluded '/' from both capture groups, so a username or password containing a literal slash (e.g. "admin:pass/word@host") slipped past both the url.Redacted() pass and the regex fallback and was logged in cleartext via logrus.Fatalf. The password half of the pattern now allows '/', while a negative first-character check keeps a "scheme://" prefix from being misread as "scheme:" + userinfo.

credentialPattern corrupts the host, port and path of the URL it is redacting
The regex runs unconditionally on RedactDSN's output and treats any later @ as a userinfo terminator, so it mangles the very URL this fatal log exists to help the user fix. Probed against the code on this branch:
"https://pmm-server:8443/v1/x@y" -> "https://pmm-server:xxxxx@y" (port and path destroyed)
"https://admin:secret@pmm-server:8443/a@b" -> "https://admin:xxxxx@pmm-server:xxxxx@b" (second, bogus substitution
after RedactDSN already
redacted correctly)
A user who mistypes --server-url with an @ anywhere after the authority is shown a mangled string and can't tell what they actually passed.
Suggestion: branch instead of layering — use u.Redacted() when url.Parse succeeds and u.User != nil, and fall back to the regex only for the opaque/unparseable cases it was written for.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Severity: medium
Confirmed, reproduced both strings exactly. Fixed: redactedServerURL now branches instead of layering — url.Parse + Redacted() when the URL has a real authority (u.Opaque == ""), and the regex only for the opaque and unparseable shapes it was written for. The regex is also anchored now, so it can't consume an @ from a path. Added two regression cases covering both of your examples, and dropped the dsnutils dependency since Redacted() is called directly.

clone() leaves the h2 ALPN advertisement in place while emptying TLSNextProto
http.Transport.Clone() first runs onceSetNextProtoDefaults on http.DefaultTransport, which installs both TLSNextProto{h2} and a TLSClientConfig{NextProtos: ["h2", "http/1.1"]} on the global — so this package, written to keep PMM's settings off the global, still triggers that mutation — and the clone copies the config. Line 86 then empties TLSNextProto, but nothing clears NextProtos.
Probed on this branch: after ConfigureLocal(rt), rt.Transport.(*http.Transport).TLSClientConfig.NextProtos == [h2 http/1.1] with an empty TLSNextProto. Configure() only overwrites TLSClientConfig for scheme == "https", so this survives for ConfigureLocal and for Configure(scheme != "https").
If such a transport ever does a TLS handshake (an http:// server URL that redirects to https), the server negotiates h2, TLSNextProto["h2"] is absent, and net/http falls through to HTTP/1.1 framing on an h2 connection.
Suggestion: set TLSClientConfig = nil (or clear NextProtos) on the non-https path.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Severity: low (not a regression — main had the same hazard)
Confirmed: NextProtos == [h2 http/1.1] with an empty TLSNextProto after ConfigureLocal. Fixed by setting TLSClientConfig = nil in clone(); Configure replaces it wholesale on the https path. Worth noting this wasn't introduced here — the pre-PR code also only touched TLSClientConfig for https, so the same transport shipped before. Tightened TestConfigureLocal/TestConfigureHTTPSchemeSkipsTLS from if c != nil to assert.Nil, which is why they didn't catch it, and added a dedicated ALPN regression test.

NginxError carries no HTTP status, so a 401/403 HTML page gets the "pmm-managed is down" hint
Explain attaches NginxHint ("check pmm-managed logs, and that PMM Server is running") to every non-JSON response — the opposite diagnosis to the one this PR exists to give.
PMM's own nginx answers auth failures in JSON, so the shipped path is fine, but the PR's own fixture is an HTML 401: admin/cli/cli_test.go:60 feeds servererror.NginxError("<html><body><h1>401 Authorization Required</h1></body></html>") through printResponse and asserts the pmm-managed-is-down hint. Any reverse proxy or LB in front of PMM Server that returns a plain 401/403 page — a common deployment — sends the user off to check pmm-managed logs when the real problem is their credentials or role.
Suggestion: carry the response status into NginxError so Explain can defer to AuthHint for 401/403.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Severity: low — follow-up
Correct, and PMM's own nginx answering auth in JSON is exactly why the shipped path is fine. Plumbing the status into NginxError means changing the consumer signature, which go-openapi doesn't hand the response to — that's a larger change than this PR should carry. Filing a follow-up.

An expired certificate is reported as "self-signed or not valid for host"
IsTLSCertificateError also matches x509.CertificateInvalidError (expired, bad name constraints, too many intermediates) and x509.UnknownAuthorityError, but WrapTLSError emits one hardcoded sentence for all four.
Concretely: PMM Server presents a correctly-issued certificate for the right host that expired yesterday. It matches via x509.CertificateInvalidError{Reason: x509.Expired} — the package's own test in utils/servererror/servererror_test.go constructs exactly this — and the user is told the certificate is "self-signed or not valid for host pmm-server" and advised to re-run with --server-insecure-tls, hiding an expiry that should be renewed, not skipped.
Suggestion: derive the reason from the matched error rather than emitting one sentence for four distinct failures.

Severity: low-medium — follow-up
Right, and the test constructing Reason: x509.Expired makes it concrete. Deriving the sentence from the matched error is the correct fix but it's a new message per branch plus its tests. Follow-up, tracked with #3.

GetError still dereferences a possibly-invalid reflect.Value, and evaluates p.Elem() twice
Line 142 adds a c.IsValid() && c.CanInt() guard for Code, but p itself is unguarded: if an ErrorResponse implementation has no Payload field, or a nil Payload pointer, p.Elem() is the zero Value and FieldByName panics on line 138 — a panic inside error handling, i.e. exactly where pmm-admin is already in trouble.
Suggestion: hoist pv := p.Elem() once and guard pv.IsValid() before reading either field.

Severity: trivial — out of scope
The panic is real, but p := v.Elem().FieldByName("Payload") and p.Elem().FieldByName("Message") are pre-existing and unchanged by this PR — the diff only adds the Code lookup, which is guarded. Hardening unchanged error-handling code is a separate change; happy to do it in its own PR.

Driving printResponse from a test means a fixture change can os.Exit(1) the whole test binary
printResponse calls os.Exit(1) for any commands.ErrorResponse. It's only safe here because cmdErr is a transport error. If the httptest certificate or redirectToTestServer ever changes so the request reaches the handler and the handler returns an error status, cmdErr becomes a commands.ErrorResponse, printResponse exits, and go test ./admin/cli/... fails with no assertion output and no indication which test exited.
Suggestion: assert on servererror.Explain / explainTransportError directly instead of on the os.Exit-carrying printResponse.

Severity: low · fixed
Fixed as you suggested. All seven call sites now go through explainTransportError, which after the #11 change covers everything printResponse does with a transport error — including the --json passthrough, so no coverage was lost moving off it. Renamed TestPrintResponseTLSError/TestPrintResponseNginxError to TestExplainTransportErrorTLS/TestExplainTransportErrorNginx to match. printResponse no longer appears in the test file at all, so the fixture change you describe can't exit the binary.

Consumers(nil) then mutated, bypassing the extra parameter added for exactly this
Here it's servererror.Consumers(nil), and api-tests/init.go:162 then mutates the returned map with transport.Consumers["application/zip"] = runtime.ByteStreamConsumer(), while admin/commands/base/setup.go:157 passes the same entry through the new extra argument — two idioms for one API across three call sites.
Worse: the mutation only reaches the transport built in init(), so the Grafana client built in api-tests/helpers.go:465 silently has no zip consumer.

Severity: low — out of scope
The inconsistency is fair. But the transport.Consumers["application/zip"] mutation at init.go:162 and the Grafana client at helpers.go:465 are both untouched by this PR — the diff only swaps how the map is built. Routing them through extra is an api-tests cleanup I'd rather not fold into a pmm-admin fix.

NginxConsumer never drains the remainder of the body, so the connection can't be reused
For a response larger than the cap the LimitReader is abandoned mid-body; net/http sees an unread body on Close and tears the connection down instead of returning it to the keep-alive pool.
Harmless for a one-shot CLI, but Consumers() is also installed on the api-tests transport (api-tests/init.go:79), where every oversized non-JSON response then costs a fresh TCP+TLS handshake.
Suggestion: io.Copy(io.Discard, reader) after the limited read restores reuse.

Fixed: io.Copy(io.Discard, reader) on the truncated path only, so the connection goes back to the keep-alive pool.

explainTransportError is a single-use wrapper around a nil check plus one call
Called from exactly one place — printResponse at admin/cli/cli.go:148 — and it adds a second name for the concept documented three lines above it. Inlining
host := ""
if opts.ServerURL != nil {
host = opts.ServerURL.Hostname()
}
return servererror.Explain(err, host, opts.SkipTLSCertificateCheck)costs the same three lines and removes an indirection the reader has to follow.

Severity: trivial · addressed, not as suggested
You were right that it was a wrapper around a nil check plus one call — but #8 asks for exactly this function as a test target, so inlining it would have left the os.Exit problem with nowhere to go. Instead I moved the --json carve-out down into it, so it now owns the complete transport-error policy rather than being an indirection over one call. printResponse ends with a single return explainTransportError(opts, err), and the function is no longer a second name for the same concept.

restoreClients is duplicated byte-for-byte in two new test files
This helper and the one at admin/commands/base/setup_test.go:37 are identical, doc comment included. Adding a fourth generated client later means remembering to edit both; forgetting one leaves a test binary whose later tests dial a closed port — the exact failure the helper was written to prevent.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Severity: trivial · fixed
Fixed. Both copies are gone; the helper now lives once in a new admin/pkg/clienttest package as RestoreDefaults(t), called from all four sites. A shared package rather than a local helper because the two copies are in different packages — that's what made them diverge-able in the first place. Dropping the copies also freed several now-unused generated-client imports from both test files.

Second pass over the fixes, against head 6de2e064. I re-checked each of the twelve replies rather than taking them as given: built, ran the touched packages' tests and bin/golangci-lint (green; the two remaining lint hits are pre-existing on main), and re-probed the behaviour each fix claims.
Verified fixed: the redaction mangling (both reported strings now come out clean, with regression cases), the ALPN advertisement (probed: no NextProtos on ConfigureLocal, Configure(http) or Configure(https)), the %q sites (three assertion files updated, %q correctly kept in GoString), printResponse gone from admin/cli/cli_test.go entirely, explainTransportError now owning the --json carve-out rather than being an indirection, and both restoreClients copies replaced by admin/pkg/clienttest.RestoreDefaults.
Deferred/declined: agreed on all five. The GetError reflection and the api-tests consumer map are pre-existing and untouched here — I checked — so follow-ups are the right call.
Two new comments below, both in the fixes themselves: the redaction fix leaks credentials in four shapes the previous revision redacted, and the body drain I asked for is unbounded.
One nit with nowhere to anchor: admin/commands/base/setup.go:129 carries an unused //nolint:contextcheck. It's pre-existing on main, but this PR rewrites that file, and the repo rule is to clear pre-existing lint in files you touch.
| // A URL with a proper authority: Redacted covers its userinfo exactly, and one without | ||
| // userinfo has nothing to redact. Either way credentialPattern must not run on top, or | ||
| // an "@" later in the path would be mistaken for a userinfo terminator. | ||

This branch leaks credentials the previous revision redacted
Redacted() only redacts what landed in u.User. A URL can parse with u.Opaque == "" and still carry its credentials somewhere else — a one-slash typo puts them in Path with User == nil, so Redacted() returns them verbatim, and the anchored fallback on line 89 never runs.
Walked the real --server-url path on this head: kong parses the flag, normalizeServerURL returns "host is missing", and line 156 logs
Invalid PMM Server URL 'https:/admin:hunter2@pmm-server:8443': host is missing.
Shapes that regressed between 86dbd76b and 6de2e064 — all four redacted correctly before, all four cleartext now:
| input | at 86dbd76b |
at 6de2e064 |
|---|---|---|
https:/admin:hunter2@pmm-server:8443 |
https:/admin:xxxxx@… |
…admin:hunter2@… |
https:///admin:hunter2@pmm-server:8443 |
https:///admin:xxxxx@… |
…admin:hunter2@… |
" https://admin:hunter2@pmm-server:8443" (leading space/tab) |
…admin:xxxxx@… |
…admin:hunter2@… |
https://ad min:hunter2@pmm-server:8443 (space in userinfo) |
…admin:xxxxx@… |
…admin:hunter2@… |
The first is a plausible typo, and a missing slash is the same family of mistake as the missing scheme this function documents as its reason to exist.
Gating the branch on u.User != nil isn't enough on its own: I ran the fallback in isolation and it turns https://pmm-server:8443/v1/x@y into https://pmm-server:xxxxx@y, i.e. the bug this commit just fixed. a:b/c@d is genuinely ambiguous between user:pass@host and host:port/path@…, so no single pattern decides both.
Suggestion: make the fallback fail closed. If parsing yields no User and the raw string still contains an @, print a placeholder rather than the string — the message keeps its diagnostic value (the user typed the URL) and stops being a redaction problem.

The drain is unbounded — my suggestion, and I should have said bounded
io.Copy(io.Discard, reader) has no limit, and it sits directly under maxNginxBodySize, whose comment promises that "a hostile server answering with an unbounded body cannot be used to exhaust memory". Memory is safe, but the read isn't bounded in bytes or in time, and there's no deadline anywhere on this path.
Probed on this head with a reader that never ends: 9.3 GiB consumed in 3 s and still going. Against a slow-drip or endless body, pmm-admin hangs inside the consumer instead of printing the nginx page.
Worth weighing against what the drain buys: net/http only reuses a connection whose body was read to the end, so a partial drain buys nothing, and bodies over 64 KiB on this path are pathological to begin with. Either bound it (io.CopyN(io.Discard, reader, 1<<20) — reuse for anything plausibly real, one bounded read for the rest) or drop it and accept a fresh handshake for oversized responses. Connection reuse in api-tests was never worth an unbounded read; that's on me for suggesting the unqualified form.
Redaction no longer leaks credentials from a malformed PMM Server URL: a wrong slash count parses with an empty authority, leaving the userinfo in Path where Redacted never looks, and whitespace in or before the URL defeats both Parse and the anchored fallback. Those now go through the pattern or, where nothing can say where the credentials end, are withheld entirely. The oversized-body drain in NginxConsumer is bounded too - it kept the connection reusable at the cost of hanging on an endless response.
Thanks @ademidoff — both the leak and the drain were real, fixed in f782b61.

Approving — re-verified both findings from the last pass against f782b619.
Redaction: probed 26 URL shapes, no leaks. The six that leaked at 6de2e064 now either redact (https:/admin:…, https:///admin:…) or fail closed to (redacted), and the shapes the earlier fix got right stay right. Drain: an endless body now returns after exactly 64 KiB + 1 + 1 MiB instead of running unbounded, and a finite oversized body still drains to EOF so reuse is kept. Build, the touched packages' tests (also under -race) and golangci-lint are clean, with nothing attributable to this PR.
One thing to fix before merge, in the description rather than the code: it still says the redaction
reuses utils/dsnutils.RedactDSN for the well-formed case instead of reimplementing it
which stopped being true when redactedServerURL was rewritten to branch on url.Parse — the dsnutils import is gone from admin/commands/base/setup.go. Since this squash-merges, that sentence is what ends up in the commit message.

Since #5707 the api-tests harness configures a clone of http.DefaultTransport instead of mutating the global one. Tests that send raw requests through http.DefaultClient (or an http.Client with no Transport) therefore lost -pmm.server-insecure-tls and fail against an https PMM Server with a self-signed certificate. Expose the harness's configured client as apitests.HTTPClient and use it in those tests, keeping the global transport untouched. Signed-off-by: Alex Demidoff <a@demidoff.me>

Problem
The PR addresses four interconnected issues with pmm-admin and pmm-agent communicating over HTTPS:
Global transport mutation — Both CLIs reconfigured http.DefaultTransport in place, causing TLS settings to leak between unrelated HTTP clients.
Opaque error messages — Certificate verification failures and authentication errors surfaced as raw cryptographic errors without mentioning the --server-insecure-tls flag.
Regressions from initial fixes — The first attempt left pmm-agent still mutating the global transport, narrowed authentication hints too far, corrupted server messages, and leaked hints into JSON output.
Credential leakage — Invalid PMM Server URLs could echo plaintext passwords in logs, and nginx-error handling had no buffer bounds.
Solution Summary
The fix introduces isolated transport handling through a shared utils/apitransport package that clones transports before modification rather than mutating the global one. apitransport.SetAuth also centralizes the service_token/API-key-vs-basic-auth selection that pmm-admin and pmm-agent each reimplemented separately.
New utils/servererror utilities provide TLS certificate detection with helpful hints (WrapTLSError), distinguish authentication failures from permission errors (AuthHint), bound nginx response parsing to 64 KiB (NginxConsumer), assemble the shared consumer map both CLIs install on their transports (Consumers), and combine the TLS/nginx hint-wrapping sequence both CLIs needed (Explain) — replacing what had been several separate, drifting implementations of the same logic.
The api-tests integration-test harness, which still mutated the global transport and read nginx error bodies unboundedly, was also migrated onto apitransport/servererror, closing the one call site the original fix missed.
Error formatting preserves internal gRPC codes for diagnostic purposes while keeping JSON output unchanged. Credential redaction now covers edge cases where URLs lack // separators or contain slashes within passwords: a URL that parses with a real authority goes through url.URL.Redacted, opaque/authority-less/unparseable ones fall back to a userinfo regex, and anything still carrying an "@" that neither path can make sense of is replaced with a (redacted) placeholder rather than echoed back.
Testing
Comprehensive unit tests span transport isolation, URL validation, flag precedence, credential redaction (including passwords containing a slash), TLS mismatches, and nginx error handling. All builds, linting (including reviewdog/golangci-lint feedback), and race-condition tests pass.
