Addresses security concern where FastAPI's default behavior exposes interactive
API documentation (/docs, /redoc) without authentication, allowing attackers to
enumerate endpoints and understand API schemas.
Changes:
- Add BANGUI_ENABLE_DOCS boolean setting (default: false) to Settings
- Modify create_app() to conditionally set docs_url, redoc_url, openapi_url
- Add docs endpoints to SetupRedirectMiddleware allowlist (/api/docs, /api/redoc, /api/openapi.json)
- Set BANGUI_ENABLE_DOCS=true in Docker/compose.debug.yml for development
- Production compose files leave it unset (defaults to false, docs disabled)
- Add comprehensive tests for docs configuration
- Document the new setting in Backend-Development.md
Security Impact:
- API documentation is now disabled by default in production
- Development environments can enable docs by setting BANGUI_ENABLE_DOCS=true
- Docs endpoints are inaccessible in production without manual configuration

Replace non-atomic db.executescript() with explicit transaction control.
Wrap each migration's DDL statements and schema_migrations insert in a
single BEGIN IMMEDIATE ... COMMIT transaction to ensure atomicity.
Changes:
- Add _parse_migration_statements() to split migration scripts into
individual statements while handling comments and string literals
- Update _apply_migration() to wrap all statements in a single explicit
transaction with rollback on error
- Ensure _get_current_schema_version() uses execute() instead of
executescript()
- Add 9 new tests for migration atomicity and statement parsing
- Update Backend-Development.md with migration authoring guidelines
If a crash occurs between DDL execution and schema_migrations insert,
the next startup will re-apply the entire migration atomically,
preventing partial migrations and data corruption.
Test coverage: 98% on db.py (up from 55%)

- Store session tokens as one-way SHA256 hashes instead of plaintext
- Hash tokens on write (create_session) and on read (get_session, delete_session)
- Add migration to drop plaintext sessions table and recreate with token_hash column
- Update Session model: token field still contains raw token for signing
- Add test to verify tokens are hashed in database, not plaintext
- Update Architekture.md to document session token hashing
- Update Backend-Development.md with implementation pattern and best practices
Prevents direct session token hijacking if database file is exposed to attacker.
If plaintext DB was readable, sessions are invalidated by the migration anyway.

**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

- Extract path validation logic into shared helper function in
backend/app/utils/path_utils.py (validate_log_path)
- Refactor AddLogPathRequest to use the helper function
- Apply the same validation to DELETE /api/config/jails/{name}/logpath
endpoint by validating the log_path query parameter
- Return HTTP 422 with descriptive error if validation fails
- Add comprehensive unit tests for path validation
- Update Backend-Development.md with usage examples
This prevents path-traversal attacks on the delete_log_path endpoint
by ensuring all log paths are within allowlisted directories.

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.

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.
