Restrict monitored log paths to a configurable allowlist of safe directories
to prevent authenticated users from instructing fail2ban to monitor arbitrary
files on the system, which could leak contents via fail2ban logging.
Changes:
- Add 'allowed_log_dirs' setting to Settings (defaults to /var/log, /config/log)
- Add @field_validator to AddLogPathRequest to validate log paths at request time
- Validator resolves paths to canonical form and checks against allowed prefixes
- Use Path.is_relative_to() to prevent prefix bypass attacks like /var/log_evil
- Add comprehensive tests for valid/invalid paths and symlink handling
- Update Features.md and Backend-Development.md with security documentation
Security improvements:
- Blocks access to sensitive files (/etc/shadow, /etc/passwd, etc.)
- Resolves symlinks before validation to prevent escape routes
- Uses proper path comparison instead of string prefix matching
- Configurable via BANGUI_ALLOWED_LOG_DIRS environment variable

- Add @field_validator for fail2ban_start_command to validate with shlex.split()
at startup, catching misconfigured commands with mismatched quotes
- Replace .split() with shlex.split() in jail_config.py line 450
- Replace .split() with shlex.split() in config_misc.py line 154
- Update Backend-Development.md with configuration documentation explaining
quoted path handling and common pitfalls
- Add comprehensive test suite (8 tests) covering valid commands, quoted paths,
and mismatched quote errors
This fix ensures commands like '/opt/my tools/fail2ban-client' start are
correctly parsed as two tokens instead of three, preventing execution failures
when the path contains spaces.

- Integrate rate limiter into auth router and dependencies
- Add 10-second asyncio.sleep on failed login attempts to further slow brute-force
- Add comprehensive tests for rate limiting (9 new tests, all passing)
- Update Features.md to document login rate limiting
- Update Backend-Development.md with rate limiting conventions and design patterns
- Fix test infrastructure issues: update password to meet complexity requirements
- Fix TestValidateSession tests to use Bearer token authentication
- All tests passing: 23 auth tests + full test suite coverage

Validates session on app mount by calling GET /api/auth/session instead of relying
solely on cached sessionStorage. This ensures the UI state always reflects server
reality — expired or revoked sessions are detected immediately.
Changes:
- Backend: Add GET /api/auth/session endpoint (requires valid session, returns 200/401)
- Frontend: Add useSessionValidation hook for mount-time validation
- Frontend: Add SessionValidationLoading component for validation spinner
- Frontend: Update AuthProvider to call validation on mount with loading state
- Frontend: Add validateSession API function
- Docs: Update Features.md with session validation behavior
- Docs: Update Web-Development.md with session validation pattern
Handles three outcomes:
1. Valid session (200): Proceed with cached state
2. Invalid session (401): Clear sessionStorage and redirect to login
3. Network error: Don't logout (backend may be temporarily unreachable)

- Add _check_single_worker_mode() to startup.py that detects and rejects
multi-worker configurations, raising a clear RuntimeError with instructions
- Set BANGUI_WORKERS=1 as default in Dockerfile.backend
- Document single-worker requirement in compose.prod.yml
- Add 'Deployment Constraints' section to Architekture.md explaining why
single-worker mode is required and detailing future multi-worker support
- Add '9.1 Background Tasks and Scheduler Architecture' section to
Backend-Development.md documenting task structure and single-worker requirement
- Add comprehensive test suite (test_startup.py) covering all scenarios:
allows single worker, rejects multi-worker, validates config format,
and verifies informative error messages
This fix addresses TASK-002 which identified that in-process APScheduler is
unsafe in multi-worker deployments due to each worker creating independent
scheduler instances, causing duplicate background job execution.

Consolidate the two divergent implementations of _since_unix from ban_service.py
and history_service.py into a single shared utility function in time_utils.py.
Changes:
- Move _since_unix to app/utils/time_utils.py with consistent time.time() approach
- Move TIME_RANGE_SLACK_SECONDS constant to app/utils/constants.py
- Update ban_service.py to import since_unix from time_utils
- Update history_service.py to import since_unix from time_utils
- Both services now use the same window boundary calculation with 60-second slack
- Add comprehensive tests for the shared since_unix function
- Document timestamp handling rationale in Backend-Development.md
This ensures dashboard and history queries return consistent row counts for the
same time range by using the same timestamp calculation and slack window across
all services.

Create GeoCache class with all mutable state as instance attributes:
- _cache, _neg_cache, _dirty, _geoip_reader, _geoip_initialized, _cache_lock
- All public methods: lookup(), lookup_batch(), lookup_cached_only(), flush_dirty(), load_from_db(), clear(), etc.
Initialization & Dependency Injection:
- Instantiate GeoCache in startup.py and store on app.state.geo_cache
- Add get_geo_cache() dependency function in dependencies.py
- Inject into routes and tasks via FastAPI's dependency system
Backward Compatibility:
- Maintain module-level functions in geo_service.py as deprecated wrappers
- All old callers continue to work through _default_geo_cache instance
- Remove test-escape-hatch functions (clear_cache, clear_neg_cache moved to methods)
Background Tasks:
- Update geo_cache_flush.py and geo_re_resolve.py to receive GeoCache instance
- Tasks now operate on injected instance rather than module globals
Tests:
- Refactor test_geo_service.py with geo_cache fixture providing fresh instances
- Update patch paths to target GeoCache methods correctly
- Fix internal state assertions to access instance attributes
Documentation:
- Update Architekture.md to document GeoCache as managed stateful service
- Describe cache lifecycle (load on startup, flush periodically, re-resolve stale)
- Note process-local limitations for multi-worker deployments
Fixes violation of Single Responsibility Principle: module no longer owns both
lookup logic and cache lifecycle management. Cache is now a first-class
injectable service with transparent lifecycle.
