Bug : When SSO login is started twice within the same running process, the CLI crashes with a panic #549
Description
Describe the bug
When SSO login is started twice within the same running process, the CLI crashes with a panic:
This happens because oauth2login registers /auth/callback on Go’s global HTTP router every time it runs. The second registration causes Go to panic.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start SSO login once.
- Start SSO login again in the same process.
- Observe the panic.
here is the Panic: `panic: pattern "/auth/callback" conflicts with pattern "/auth/callback"
The issue can be reproduced with:
package cmd
import (
"context"
"testing"
"time"
"golang.org/x/oauth2"
)
func TestReproduceSSODuplicateCallbackPanic(t *testing.T) {
config := &oauth2.Config{
Endpoint: oauth2.Endpoint{
AuthURL: "http://127.0.0.1",
TokenURL: "http://127.0.0.1",
},
}
go func() {
_, _, _ = oauth2login(context.Background(), 0, config, false)
}()
time.Sleep(2 * time.Second)
// The second invocation registers /auth/callback again and panics.
_, _, _ = oauth2login(context.Background(), 0, config, false)
}Expected behavior:
- The second login should return a normal error or create its own temporary callback server.
Actual behavior:
- The process crashes with a panic and stack trace.
Impact:
- Applications, tests, or services that reuse the CLI cannot safely perform multiple SSO logins.
Suggested fix:
- Use a private http.ServeMux for each login instead of the global http.DefaultServeMux..

Each SSO login now adds the /auth/callback route to its own private http.ServeMux instead of the global http.DefaultServeMux, so a second login no longer crashes. (PR: #571)

Sorry @aniket866, I missed that you had asked for this in the issue. I'm closing #571 so you can go ahead with yours.

Still valid on current master (f9550f5).
cmd/login.go:312still callshttp.HandleFunc("/auth/callback", callbackHandler)on the globalhttp.DefaultServeMux. The test from this issue (twooauth2logincalls in one process) panics:The earlier comment about a fix refers to PR #571, which was closed, so nothing has been merged. A private
http.NewServeMux()per login, set assrv.Handler, would fix it. It would also cover #312, which has the same root cause.Disclosure: this comment was drafted with AI assistance, and the results were run locally.

@aniket866 are you still working on this? If not, I can reopen #571. It's rebased on current master, and its test that runs two logins in one process passes. It would also fix #312.

@Sarthak-Shreshtha01
yeah you can reopen No problem

Thanks @aniket866. I reopened #571 and rebased it on current master.
