**Issue:**
- log_target accepted arbitrary paths, allowing authenticated users to write
files as root via fail2ban (e.g., /etc/cron.d/bangui-pwned)
- fail2ban runs as root and opens files specified in log_target
**Solution:**
1. **Model layer validation:** Already existed in GlobalConfigUpdate, prevents
invalid paths before reaching service
2. **Service layer validation:** Added defensive check in update_global_config()
that validates log_target even if model validation is bypassed
3. **New validation helper:** Added validate_log_target() utility that accepts
special values (STDOUT, STDERR, SYSLOG) or paths within allowed directories
**Changes:**
- app/utils/path_utils.py: Added validate_log_target() helper
- app/services/config_service.py: Added service-layer validation before
sending command to fail2ban
- backend/tests: Fixed session_secret length issues in fixtures (min 32 chars)
- backend/tests: Added tests for valid special log targets
- Docs/Backend-Development.md: Documented log_target security requirements
**Test Coverage:**
- Model validation rejects /etc/passwd (existing test)
- Model validation accepts STDOUT, STDERR, SYSLOG special values
- Model validation accepts paths in allowed directories
- Service layer validation tested with special values

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.

Move ConfigDirError, ConfigFileNotFoundError, ConfigFileExistsError, ConfigFileWriteError, and ConfigFileNameError from raw_config_io_service into the shared domain exception module. Update router and tests to import the exceptions from app.exceptions.
Add source=archive option for dashboard endpoints and history service; update Docs/Tasks.md; include archive branch for list_bans, bans_by_country, ban_trend, bans_by_jail; tests for archive paths.
1) Added _get_active_jail_names import in jail_config_service 2) Added _get_active_jail_names and _parse_jails_sync imports in filter_config_service and resolved constants/exceptions 3) Added bangui_version=__version__ in config_service.get_service_status and tests
- Add TYPE_CHECKING guards for runtime-expensive imports (aiohttp, aiosqlite)
- Reorganize imports to follow PEP 8 conventions
- Convert TypeAlias to modern PEP 695 type syntax (where appropriate)
- Use Sequence/Mapping from collections.abc for type hints (covariant)
- Replace string literals with cast() for improved type inference
- Fix casting of Fail2BanResponse and TypedDict patterns
- Add IpLookupResult TypedDict for precise return type annotation
- Reformat overlong lines for readability (120 char limit)
- Add asyncio_mode and filterwarnings to pytest config
- Update test fixtures with improved type hints
This improves mypy type checking and makes type relationships explicit.
