Vault UI - Sometime got a blank screen when using OIDC authentication

[Zenithar]

Description

We are using Vault 1.3.2 with OIDC authentication via Okta IDP.

To Reproduce

• Setup a vault cluster with OIDC via Okta
• Login with UI
• Get out from UI
• Do some work
• Get back to UI
  • Sometimes it says your "you need to reauthenticate" (expected)
  • Sometimes the UI is stuck to a white page with JS errors in the console

JS ERROR :

Error while processing route: vault.index n.policies is null checkForRootToken/<@https://vault.domain.tld/ui/assets/vault-14dca2e4637df4256c70afe78ca6c71d.js:2244:1

Expected behavior

Be able to view root secrets or ask for reauthentication.

Environment:

• Vault Server Version: 1.3.2
• Vault CLI Version: 1.3.2
• Vault UI Browser : Firefox / Chrome
• Server Operating System/Architecture: Ubuntu x86_64

Additional context

A workaround consists in clearing the localStorage and re-authenticate to be able to use Vault UI as expected.

Possibly related to #7349 ? We experience the same issue using userpass on token renewal.

n&&n.policies.includes("root")&&e.removeTokenData(t)})},authenticate:function(){var e,t=(e=regeneratorRuntime.mark(function e(){var t,n,a,s,r,l=arguments

n.policies is null here. Pretty annoying bug.

Apologies for the late response -- this was fixed as of #9467!
