acme:
- acme.sh chmods its tree to owner-only (700/600) every run, which
broke the two-user model: a tree left owner-only by one user made
every acme.sh call of the other exit 2
- normalize_acme_home() reopens group access (sudo chmod g+rwX,
files only — setgid dirs trip RestrictSUIDSGID); _run_acme_preflight
is the choke point before every daemon acme.sh call + startup
- acme service now runs as the daemon user; --log persists the raw CA
transcript; SYS_LOG=6 journals manual issue/renew runs
- timer daily-only: two runs/day landed inside ZeroSSL's 24h
validation backoff (Retry-After: 86400) — a permanent renewal lockout
- _collect_acme no longer raises on cert-list failure; reports
status.error (AcmeState.status) so the certs page can surface it
firewall: re-stamp the applied baseline on live zone mutations
(interfaces/services/rich-rules/masquerade/forward-ports) so cancel-all
reverts to post-mutation state, not a stale install-era snapshot;
set_masquerade syncs the declarative config for existing zones;
add_forward_port records toaddr only with toport
status: apply-all accepts {"force": true} (forwarded to the firewall
apply only); ApplyConfirm force checkbox; applyResultToasts() — the
errors map wins over the 200; ActionButton checks errors before the
success toast; dashboard uses ApplyConfirm
system_import: drift re-imports carry the existing apply-meta; first
import stamps the adopted content as applied (it is the running state)
— no phantom pending changes
nginx: get_config only re-saves when migration actually changed the
config (no more owner/mtime churn on every read)
install: repair mis-owned top-level system dirs (tmpfiles
unsafe-path-transition), warn with a full-repair command for deeper
mis-ownership
daemon/server: loop.get_exception_handler() (aiohttp API fix)
tests: 888 pytest + 24 node passing; ruff clean
systemd: pre-create volatile /run paths so vacuum-walld's ProtectSystem=strict namespace setup cannot fail with 226/NAMESPACE — RuntimeDirectory=vacuum-wall nginx plus a tmpfiles.d spec (installed to /etc/tmpfiles.d/) covering /run/firewalld and /run/nginx.pid. Drop /run/sudo from ReadWritePaths: NOPASSWD children never need it, and its absence crash-looped restarts after sudo removed /run/sudo.
webui: run the auth session check before mounting the shell so logged-out visitors never flash the sidebar or a protected page; router guard and sidebar now react to auth state, and the login page renders full-bleed.
ws: cap refresh->reconnect episodes at 2 consecutive failures; if the WS path stays dead after a token refresh, abandon reconnection instead of looping refreshAuth forever (UI keeps working via REST until reload).
api: GET /api/network/interfaces now includes loopback and returns per-interface {config, runtime}; dashboard reads runtime.state (carrier counts as up) and the interfaces page filters lo client-side.
daemon: re-collect nginx state after lazy config migration (cached list went stale when the on-disk format changed under it), skip system_import.nginx when config.json already exists (re-parsing vacuum-wall's own generated sites is lossy), and poll nginx (60s) / acme (300s) state so file drift self-heals.
Refresh/logout and token robustness
- drop the post-rotation refresh_tokens row delete in auth_refresh so
logout blacklists the current (rotated) refresh token; remove the
dead _clear_refresh_token_after_rotation helper and clear_active_refresh_token
- reject non-object JWT payloads in _extract_unverified_sub so crafted
Authorization headers return 401 instead of crashing with 500
SQLite user store
- make builtin-admin seeding idempotent: on a concurrent first start the
losing seeder re-checks, finds the winner, and returns instead of
raising IntegrityError
- per-thread sqlite connections + busy_timeout so Flask worker threads
don't hit cross-thread ProgrammingError / SQLITE_BUSY
- add LogsDirectory + /var/log/vacuum-wall to ReadWritePaths in both
systemd units so the fallback admin password actually lands on disk
Frontend
- skip apiFetch 401-recovery for public auth endpoints so a failed
login no longer logs out a valid session
- add /passkeys to the nav (passkey registration was unreachable);
remove the dead checkWebAuthnCapable export
- drop the CSP-blocked inline WS-URL script and the
__WS_URL_PLACEHOLDER__ plumbing; the WS URL is derived from location
Daemon / WS
- parse Sec-WebSocket-Protocol manually (web.Request.get_subprotocols
does not exist in aiohttp 3.13); X-Auth-Token is a custom-nginx
fallback only — docstring and security docs corrected
Install / system
- bootstrap_auth.py is now idempotent: preserves existing auth config
and syncs the admin password on re-runs (new reset_password helper)
- WebUI server block renders auth_basic off (the UI is JWT-protected)
- install.sh chown/chmod skips .git to avoid git dubious-ownership
breakage
- tolerate unreadable /etc/wireguard during system import
Contracts / docs
- create_user returns 409 on duplicate username per docs/api.md
- correct docs/api.md response shapes, docs/security.md blacklist
cleanup wording + one-refresh-per-user caveat, stale WS-URL
references, and the .htpasswd description
Tests: +7 regression tests (rotation/logout revocation, crafted-token
401, concurrent seeding); placeholder-substitution tests replaced with
serve-as-is SPA root tests.

Phase 1-4: Networkd subsystem
- lib/network.py: systemd-networkd config renderer (.network INI files)
with full schema support: [Match], [Link], [Network], [Address], [Route],
[DHCPv4], [DHCPv6] sections. One Address/=DNS= line per value per spec.
Route sections use #N suffix per systemd.syntax(7).
- lib/network.py: generate_network_files() with 50-<name>.network prefix
and stale file cleanup
- lib/network.py: collect_upstream_dns() filters local/private DNS
- lib/network.py: infer_dhcp_ranges() and infer_zones() helpers
- daemon/handlers/network.py: routes for GET/POST /network/interfaces
and full apply with DNS upstream sync to dnsmasq
- webui/api/network.py: Flask blueprint for /api/network/* endpoints
- webui/api: interfaces page updated with IP config inline editing
- lib/state.py: networkd collector using parse_networkctl_status()
- system/sudoers.d/vacuum-walld: networkctl + systemd-network rules
- system/systemd/vacuum-walld.service: ReadWritePaths for /etc/systemd/network
- install.sh: ACME email now optional, configured from WebUI

for /etc/systemd/network (ProtectSystem=strict compatibility)
