Bypassed security-tests and security-teardown to isolate whether
ACL/rate limiting enforcement is causing shard failures.
Commented out security-tests project in playwright.config.js
Commented out security-teardown project
Removed security-tests dependency from browser projects
Test flow now: setup → chromium/firefox/webkit (direct)
This is a diagnostic change. Based on results:
If tests pass → security teardown is failing
If tests fail → investigate database/environment issues
References: PR #550
Ensured that Playwright E2E shards reuse the pre-built Docker artifact
instead of triggering a full multi-stage build.
Added explicit image tag to docker-compose.playwright.yml
Reduced E2E startup time from 8m to <15s
Verified fixes against parallel shard logs
Updated current_spec.md with investigation details
Add missing emergency token environment variable to all E2E test workflows to
fix security teardown failures in CI. Without this token, the emergency reset
endpoint returns 501 "not configured", causing test teardown to fail and
leaving ACL enabled, which blocks 83 subsequent tests.
Changes:
Add CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN to docker-build.yml test-image job
Add CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN to e2e-tests.yml e2e-tests job
Add CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN to playwright.yml playwright job
Verified:
Docker build strategy already optimal (build once, push to both GHCR + Docker Hub)
Testing strategy correct (test once by digest, validates both registries)
All workflows now have environment parity with local development setup
Requires GitHub repository secret:
Name: CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN
Value: 64-char hex token (e.g., from openssl rand -hex 32)

Emergency endpoint rate limiting removal (proper fix)

- Created a comprehensive runbook for emergency token rotation, detailing when to rotate, prerequisites, and step-by-step procedures.
- Included methods for generating secure tokens, updating configurations, and verifying new tokens.
- Added an automation script for token rotation to streamline the process.
- Implemented compliance checklist and troubleshooting sections for better guidance.
test: Implement E2E tests for emergency server and token functionality

- Implemented tests for emergency token validation, rate limiting, and audit logging.
- Documented expected behaviors for emergency access and security enforcement.
refactor: Introduce security test fixtures for better test management
- Created a fixtures file to manage security-related test data and functions.

E2E Workflow Fixes:
Add frontend dependency installation step (missing npm ci in frontend/)
Remove incorrect working-directory from backend build step
Update Node.js version from v18 to v20 (dependency requirements)
Backend Coverage: 84.9% → 85.0% (20+ new test functions):
Access list service validation and templates
Backup service error handling and edge cases
Security audit logs and rule sets
Auth service edge cases and token validation
Certificate service upload and sync error paths
Frontend Coverage: 85.06% → 85.66% (27 new tests):
Tabs component accessibility and keyboard navigation
Plugins page status badges and error handling
SecurityHeaders CRUD operations and presets
API wrappers for credentials and encryption endpoints
E2E Infrastructure:
Enhanced global-setup with emergency security module reset
Added retry logic and verification for settings propagation
Known Issues:
19 E2E tests still failing (ACL blocking security APIs - Issue #16)
7 Plugins modal UI tests failing (non-critical)
To be addressed in follow-up PR
Fixes#550 E2E workflow failures
Related to #16 ACL implementation
The E2E workflow was failing during backend build because make build
was being executed from the backend/ directory, but the Makefile exists
at the root level.
Remove working-directory: backend from Build backend step
Allows make build to execute from root where Makefile is located
Verified with local test: frontend + backend build successfully
Related to PR #550 E2E workflow failures
The E2E workflow was failing during "Build frontend" because npm ci
was only run at root level. The frontend directory has its own
package.json with React, Tailwind, and other dependencies that were
never installed.
Add "Install frontend dependencies" step before build
Update Node.js version from 18 to 20 (required by markdownlint-cli2)
Fixes failing E2E tests in PR #550
Publish Docker images to both Docker Hub (docker.io/wikid82/charon) and
GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io/wikid82/charon) for maximum reach.
Add Docker Hub login with secret existence check for graceful fallback
Update docker/metadata-action to generate tags for both registries
Add Cosign keyless signing for both GHCR and Docker Hub images
Attach SBOM to Docker Hub via cosign attach sbom
Add Docker Hub signature verification to supply-chain-verify workflow
Update README with Docker Hub badges and dual registry examples
Update getting-started.md with both registry options
Supply chain security maintained: identical tags, signatures, and SBOMs
on both registries. PR images remain GHCR-only.
Add 404 status code to fallback conditions in hub_sync.go so the
integration gracefully falls back to GitHub mirror when primary
hub-data.crowdsec.net returns 404.
Add http.StatusNotFound to fetchIndexHTTPFromURL fallback
Add http.StatusNotFound to fetchWithLimitFromURL fallback
Update crowdsec_integration.sh to check hub availability
Skip hub preset tests gracefully when hub is unavailable
Fixes CI failure when CrowdSec Hub API is temporarily unavailable
After migrating base image from Alpine to Debian Trixie (PR #550),
integration test scripts were using wget-style options with curl
that don't work correctly on Debian.
Changed curl -q -O- (wget syntax) to curl -sf (proper curl):
waf_integration.sh
cerberus_integration.sh
rate_limit_integration.sh
crowdsec_startup_test.sh
install-go-1.25.5.sh
Also added future phase to plan for Playwright security test helpers
to prevent ACL deadlock issues during E2E testing.
