[Bug 2074018] [NEW] disable_user_account_days_inactive option locks out all users

 

Public bug reported:

Enabling the option `[security_compliance]
disable_user_account_days_inactive = X` disables all user accounts in
deployments that have been running for longer than X.

The root cause seems to be the way that the values of the
`last_active_at` column in the `user` table are set.  When the option is
disabled, the `last_active_at` column is never updated, so it is null
for all users.

If you later decide to turn on this option for compliance reasons, the
current logic in Keystone will use the value of `created_at` as the last
time the user was active.  For any deployment where the users were
created more than the value of `disable_user_account_days_inactive` will
result in all users being disabled including the admin user regardless
of when the user last logged in.
