Replace name-based bouncer validation with actual LAPI authentication
testing. The previous implementation checked if a bouncer NAME existed
but never validated if the API KEY was accepted by CrowdSec LAPI.
Key changes:
- Add testKeyAgainstLAPI() with real HTTP authentication against
/v1/decisions/stream endpoint
- Implement exponential backoff retry (500ms → 5s cap) for transient
connection errors while failing fast on 403 authentication failures
- Add mutex protection to prevent concurrent registration race conditions
- Use atomic file writes (temp → rename) for key persistence
- Mask API keys in all log output (CWE-312 compliance)
Breaking behavior: Invalid env var keys now auto-recover by registering
a new bouncer instead of failing silently with stale credentials.
Includes temporary acceptance of 7 Debian HIGH CVEs with documented
mitigation plan (Alpine migration in progress - issue #631).
- Implemented CrowdSecBouncerKeyDisplay component to fetch and display the bouncer API key information.
- Added loading skeletons and error handling for API requests.
- Integrated the new component into the Security page, conditionally rendering it based on CrowdSec status.
- Created unit tests for the CrowdSecBouncerKeyDisplay component, covering various states including loading, registered/unregistered bouncer, and no key configured.
- Added functional tests for the Security page to ensure proper rendering of the CrowdSec Bouncer Key Display based on the CrowdSec status.
- Updated translation files to include new keys related to the bouncer API key functionality.
- Implemented `diagnose-crowdsec.sh` script for checking CrowdSec connectivity and configuration.
- Added E2E tests for CrowdSec console enrollment, including API checks for enrollment status, diagnostics connectivity, and configuration validation.
- Created E2E tests for CrowdSec diagnostics, covering configuration file validation, connectivity checks, and configuration export.
The break glass recovery test was calling GET /api/v1/config which
doesn't exist (only PATCH is supported). Changed to use
GET /api/v1/security/config and updated the response body accessor
from body.security?.admin_whitelist to body.config?.admin_whitelist.
Also switched to Playwright's toBeOK() assertion for better error
messages on failure.
- Implemented comprehensive tests for security toggle handlers in `security_toggles_test.go`, covering enable/disable functionality for ACL, WAF, Cerberus, CrowdSec, and RateLimit.
- Added sample JSON response for CrowdSec decisions in `lapi_decisions_response.json`.
- Created aggressive preset configuration for CrowdSec in `preset_aggressive.json`.
- Documented backend coverage, security fixes, and E2E testing improvements in `2026-02-02_backend_coverage_security_fix.md`.
- Developed a detailed backend test coverage restoration plan in `current_spec.md` to address existing gaps and improve overall test coverage to 86%+.
- Added initial feature flag state verification before tests to ensure a stable starting point.
- Implemented retry logic with exponential backoff for toggling feature flags, improving resilience against transient failures.
- Introduced `waitForFeatureFlagPropagation` utility to replace hard-coded waits with condition-based verification for feature flag states.
