matchSiteID guarded most authenticated and admin routes with
`if siteID != "" && user.SiteID != siteID`. Dropping the ?site= query
parameter made the check no-op and any authenticated user passed the
middleware. Downstream handlers fell back to reading site from the JSON
body or just used the empty string, so on email/telegram subscribe
endpoints (which read site from body) a user authenticated to siteA
could perform actions targeting siteB without the cross-site guard
ever firing.
Require ?site= to be present and to match user.SiteID. Body-only site
flows are still supported provided the URL also carries the matching
?site= — both must agree, which removes the bypass and keeps the
declared site visible to the middleware.
Reproduction TestRest_matchSiteID enumerates four cases (matching,
mismatched, missing, empty). Existing test calls that relied on the
implicit pass had to add ?site=remark42 to the URL: the addComment
helper now derives the param from c.Locator.SiteID, picture upload
URL gets the param explicitly, and the email/telegram subscribe table
adds it to every endpoint. The negative cases that previously asserted
StatusBadRequest from the handler now correctly assert StatusForbidden
from the middleware.
Apply go fix ./... analysers (Go 1.26) across backend and examples:
- interface{} → any (type alias, no behaviour change)
- for i := 0; i < N; i++ → for range N / for i := range N
- slices.Contains / slices.ContainsFunc replacing manual loops
- strings.SplitSeq replacing strings.Split in range (avoids allocation)
- strings.CutPrefix replacing HasPrefix+TrimPrefix
- min() replacing manual if/else
- fmt.Appendf replacing []byte(fmt.Sprintf(...))
- strings.Builder replacing string += concatenation
- wg.Go(func(){}) replacing wg.Add(1)/go/wg.Done() pattern
- removed redundant ii := i loop variable copies (unnecessary since Go 1.22)
omitempty on struct-typed JSON fields: go fix removed omitempty from
struct-typed fields (time.Time, PostInfo, UserDetailEntry) because
encoding/json's omitempty never applied to struct types — it was always
a no-op. Kept as bare tags (no omitzero replacement) to preserve the
existing serialisation behaviour.
Replace strings.Split(RemoteAddr, ":") with net.SplitHostPort for correct
IPv6 address extraction in vote deduplication and comment IP tracking.
Harden image proxy: add SSRF-safe transport blocking private/reserved IPs
at connection time with DNS rebinding protection, sanitize error messages
to prevent information leakage, add response size limit via io.LimitReader.
Fix shadowed error variables in BlockedUsers, SetTitle, and Delete methods.
Exclude gosec taint analysis false positives at linter config level.
Add two missing security headers to the existing securityHeadersMiddleware:
- X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff — prevents browsers from MIME-sniffing
responses away from the declared Content-Type, stopping e.g. a
user-uploaded image from being reinterpreted as executable HTML/JS
- Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin — limits URL information
leaked in the Referer header on cross-origin requests to just the origin
(no path), and sends nothing at all on HTTPS-to-HTTP downgrades
Change the default img-src value to "*" and sets it to "'self'" when
image proxy is enabled. The previous state was inversion of this logic
which was wrong.
`Content-Security-Policy` now restricts resource loading and execution
to enhance security:
- `default-src 'none'`: Disallow all resource loading by default.
- `base-uri 'none'`: Prevents the use of `<base>` tag to change the
base URL for relative URLs.
- `form-action 'none'`: Disallows form submissions.
- `connect-src 'self'`: Restricts the origins that can be connected to
(via XHR, WebSockets, etc.) to the same origin.
- `frame-src 'self'`: Restricts the origins that can be embedded using
`<frame>` and `<iframe>` to the same origin (for `/web/` demo
endpoint).
- `frame-ancestors %s;`: Specifies the origins that are allowed to
embed this content in a frame. If no specific origins are allowed, it
defaults to `*` (any origin). This enhances security by controlling
which sites can embed your content.
- `img-src 'self'`: Allows images to be loaded only from the same
origin. If `imageProxyEnabled` is true, allows images from any origin
(`*`).
- `script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'`: Allows scripts to be loaded and
executed only from the same origin and allows inline scripts.
- `style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'`: Allows styles to be loaded and
applied only from the same origin and allows inline styles.
- `font-src data:`: Allows fonts to be loaded from data URIs.
- `object-src 'none'`: Disallows the use of `<object>`, `<embed>`, and
`<applet>` tags.
`Permissions-Policy` now restricts the use of certain browser features
which we don't use to enhance user privacy and security:
- `accelerometer=()`: Disables the use of the accelerometer sensor.
- `autoplay=()`: Disables automatic playback of media.
- `camera=()`: Disables the use of the camera.
- `cross-origin-isolated=()`: Disallows the page from being treated as
cross-origin isolated.
- `display-capture=()`: Disables the ability to capture the display.
- `encrypted-media=()`: Disables the use of Encrypted Media Extensions
.
- `fullscreen=()`: Disables the ability to use fullscreen mode.
- `geolocation=()`: Disables the use of geolocation.
- `gyroscope=()`: Disables the use of the gyroscope sensor.
- `keyboard-map=()`: Disables the use of the keyboard map.
- `magnetometer=()`: Disables the use of the magnetometer sensor.
- `microphone=()`: Disables the use of the microphone.
- `midi=()`: Disables the use of the MIDI API.
- `payment=()`: Disables the Payment Request API.
- `picture-in-picture=()`: Disables the use of Picture-in-Picture mode
.
- `publickey-credentials-get=()`: Disables the use of the Web
Authentication API.
- `screen-wake-lock=()`: Disables the ability to prevent the screen
from dimming.
- `sync-xhr=()`: Disables synchronous XMLHttpRequest.
- `usb=()`: Disables the use of the USB API.
- `xr-spatial-tracking=()`: Disables the use of spatial tracking in
WebXR.
- `clipboard-read=()`: Disables the ability to read from the clipboard
.
- `clipboard-write=()`: Disables the ability to write to the clipboard
.
- `gamepad=()`: Disables the use of the Gamepad API.
- `hid=()`: Disables the use of the Human Interface Device API.
- `idle-detection=()`: Disables the ability to detect idle state.
- `interest-cohort=()`: Disables the use of interest cohort tracking.
- `serial=()`: Disables the use of the Serial API.
- `unload=()`: Disables the ability to use the `beforeunload` and
`unload` events.
- `window-management=()`: Disables the ability to use window
management APIs.
Previous behaviour is preserved for query parameters way of requesting
the subscription. The new behaviour with the possibility to confirm
the email right away without a separate /email/confirm call is enabled
only with request params sent in the request body, which was not a thing
before 27fc339e, which was merged just now and is not part
of any tagged version yet.
As discovered in #1477, dashes are expected to work in the site ID
and do work everywhere but in email auth. That change makes
the behaviour consistent: site ID now allows dashes.
It was supposed to solve #253 but frontend part for it in
#357 was never finished, and backend code produces false
positive test failures since day 0. The cost of just having
this code around is too high, we'll re-add it in case
frontend implementation will be finished.
This allows having separate values of TTL for Commit and Cleanup
and moving them apart in time, also clarifying their connection
to EditTime which was previously outside of the package level.
