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.
- update_permissions: swap to upsert-first-then-delete-stale so a
failed upsert mid-loop rolls back cleanly, leaving the user's
permissions intact. Adds Q_DELETE_PERMISSION_SUBSYSTEM for
targeted removal.
- auth_refresh: generate and persist the new refresh token before
blacklisting/clearing the old one, so a failure in generate_tokens
doesn't leave the user locked out with no valid refresh token.
- Raise ValueError on missing request body in auth_logout
- Add username check in verify_authentication to prevent credential reuse
- Replace N+1 queries in list_users with single JOIN query
webui/static/hoover/api.js
Guard retryRes.json() with .catch(() => null) so non-JSON
responses (e.g. nginx 502/503) don't throw and lose the
actual status code. Falls back to 'HTTP <status>' error string.
lib/db_sqlite.py
Replace unsafe sql.split(';') loop with conn.executescript()
which properly handles semicolons inside string literals.
webui/server.py
Add _AUTH_PERSONAL set and _is_personal_auth() so personal
auth operations (session, password, logout, webauthn creds)
skip subsystem permission checks. Users with only firewall:read
can now manage their own credentials without needing auth:rw.
Apply ruff line-wrapping formatting to docs and test files.
Clarify auth middleware: extract user_permissions once before
subsystem check, removing conditional variable scoping.
