- IPv4-mapped cloud metadata (::ffff:169.254.169.254) previously fell through
the IPv4-mapped IPv6 detection block and returned the generic private-IP error
instead of the cloud-metadata error, making the two cases inconsistent
- The IPv4-mapped error path used ip.String() (the raw ::ffff:… form) directly
rather than sanitizeIPForError, potentially leaking the unsanitized IPv6
address in error messages visible to callers
- Now extracts the IPv4 from the mapped address before both the cloud-metadata
comparison and the sanitization call, so ::ffff:169.254.169.254 produces the
same "access to cloud metadata endpoints is blocked" error as 169.254.169.254
and the error message is always sanitized through the shared helper
- Updated the corresponding test to assert the cloud-metadata message and the
absence of the raw IPv6 representation in the error text
HTTP/HTTPS uptime monitors targeting LAN addresses (192.168.x.x,
10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x) permanently reported 'down' on fresh installs
because SSRF protection rejects RFC 1918 ranges at two independent
checkpoints: the URL validator (DNS-resolution layer) and the safe
dialer (TCP-connect layer). Fixing only one layer leaves the monitor
broken in practice.
- Add IsRFC1918() predicate to the network package covering only the
three RFC 1918 CIDRs; 169.254.x.x (link-local / cloud metadata)
and loopback are intentionally excluded
- Add WithAllowRFC1918() functional option to both SafeHTTPClient and
ValidationConfig; option defaults to false so existing behaviour is
unchanged for every call site except uptime monitors
- In uptime_service.go, pass WithAllowRFC1918() to both
ValidateExternalURL and NewSafeHTTPClient together; a coordinating
comment documents that both layers must be relaxed as a unit
- 169.254.169.254 and the full 169.254.0.0/16 link-local range remain
unconditionally blocked; the cloud-metadata error path is preserved
- 21 new tests across three packages, including an explicit regression
guard that confirms RFC 1918 blocks are still applied without the
option set (TestValidateExternalURL_RFC1918BlockedByDefault)
Fixes issues 6 and 7 from the fresh-install bug report.
- Updated error variable names for clarity in DNS provider, import, logs, manual challenge, security, user, and other handlers.
- Improved error handling in services such as backup, credential, docker, mail, notification, security headers, and uptime services.
- Enhanced readability by using more descriptive variable names for errors in multiple locations across the codebase.
- Ensured consistent error handling practices throughout the application.
- Updated `crowdsec_handler.go` to log inaccessible paths during config export and handle permission errors gracefully.
- Modified `emergency_handler.go` to clear admin whitelist during security reset and ensure proper updates to security configurations.
- Enhanced user password update functionality in `user_handler.go` to reset failed login attempts and lockout status.
- Introduced rate limiting middleware in `cerberus` to manage request rates and prevent abuse, with comprehensive tests for various scenarios.
- Added validation for proxy host entries in `proxyhost_service.go` to ensure valid hostnames and IP addresses, including tests for various cases.
- Improved IP matching logic in `whitelist.go` to support both IPv4 and IPv6 loopback addresses.
- Updated configuration loading in `config.go` to include rate limiting parameters from environment variables.
- Added tests for new functionalities and validations to ensure robustness and reliability.
- Added a reset of the models.Setting struct before querying for settings in both the Manager and Cerberus components to avoid ID leakage from previous queries.
- Introduced new functions in Cerberus for checking admin authentication and admin whitelist status.
- Enhanced middleware logic to allow admin users to bypass ACL checks if their IP is whitelisted.
- Added tests to verify the behavior of the middleware with respect to ACLs and admin whitelisting.
- Created a new utility for checking if an IP is in a CIDR list.
- Updated various services to use `Where` clause for fetching records by ID instead of directly passing the ID to `First`, ensuring consistency in query patterns.
- Added comprehensive tests for settings queries to demonstrate and verify the fix for ID leakage issues.
- Implemented `useManualChallenge`, `useChallengePoll`, and `useManualChallengeMutations` hooks for managing manual DNS challenges.
- Created tests for the `useManualChallenge` hooks to ensure correct fetching and mutation behavior.
- Added `ManualDNSChallenge` component for displaying challenge details and actions.
- Developed end-to-end tests for the Manual DNS Provider feature, covering provider selection, challenge UI, and accessibility compliance.
- Included error handling tests for verification failures and network errors.
- Changed report title to reflect security audit focus
- Updated date and status to indicate approval for commit
- Enhanced executive summary with detailed validation results
- Included comprehensive test coverage results for backend and frontend
- Documented pre-commit hooks validation and known issues
- Added detailed security scan results, confirming absence of CVE-2025-68156
- Verified binary inspection for expr-lang dependency
- Provided risk assessment and recommendations for post-merge actions
- Updated compliance matrix and final assessment sections
- Improved overall report structure and clarity
- Add gotestsum for real-time test progress visibility
- Parallelize 174 tests across 14 files for faster execution
- Add -short mode support skipping 21 heavy integration tests
- Create testutil/db.go helper for future transaction rollbacks
- Fix data race in notification_service_test.go
- Fix 4 CrowdSec LAPI test failures with permissive validator
Performance improvements:
- Tests now run in parallel (174 tests with t.Parallel())
- Quick feedback loop via -short mode
- Zero race conditions detected
- Coverage maintained at 87.7%
Closes test optimization initiative
- Updated UsersPage tests to check for specific URL formats instead of regex patterns.
- Increased timeout for Go coverage report generation to handle larger repositories.
- Cleaned up generated artifacts before running CodeQL analysis to reduce false positives.
