* fix(hub): a per-account sign-in lockout, and a reviewed unauthenticated surfaceChristophe Besson13 days1-1/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Passphrase sign-in locks per username: after `login.max_failures` wrong passphrases (default 4) the name is refused with `429 account_locked` and a `Retry-After` for `login.lockout_minutes` (default 60), without the passphrase being checked. Both numbers are instance policy an admin sets from the panel; zero failures turns it off. The per-IP limit bounds one address, and IPv6 gives every subscriber a /64 of them — an online guess targets an account, so the account is what is counted. - Counted by the name as typed, existing or not, so `login` stays uniform (M1). The key is a hash: people type passphrases into the username field. - The attempt is taken before the check in one `INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE … WHERE … RETURNING`, so a concurrent burst gets no more than the limit. - Sign-in, passphrase change and account deletion count on the same row; the last had no rate limit at all. - A lockout refuses passphrase sign-in and nothing else: sessions, renewal and device sign-in continue, and a reset code clears it (AV26). A session learns its own lockout from `/v1/users/me`, and the passphrase change checks it before re-wrapping any node's bundle — the hub accepts the new passphrase only after the nodes have it. The SPA now shows what the hub said. `loginAndRecover` threw "Login failed: {json}", so `email_verification_required` never matched and was never shown; the passphrase-change form rendered no error at all in its first phase. The unauthenticated surface, reviewed route by route: - No `/docs`, `/redoc` or `/openapi.json`, in the code. The Caddyfile hid them on meshbay.org only; a packaged hub behind any other proxy published all three. - The node socket's first message must arrive within ten seconds. It is accepted before anyone is known, and an unbounded read is a connection any stranger holds for free. - `/v1/relays` answers 503 behind `relay.RELAYS_ENABLED`, as federation does: nothing in the tree calls it and two of its routes take no account. - `test_unauthenticated_surface.py` walks every route and fails on one without an authentication dependency that is not listed with its reason. Verified in Chrome against a local hub: the lockout and wrong-passphrase messages, the admin section saving both lockout and mail limits, and the passphrase change refused while locked. Not verified in Firefox (a running instance blocks the headless one), nor the upsert's concurrency on PostgreSQL.

* fix(hub): a node that hosts nothing is not a free target, and a private ↵Christophe Besson13 days1-0/+123
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | group's hosts are its members' Two checks that were not performed, in the same shape: something true of the public case, written so it did not apply to the rest. **Signaling.** The membership check read `if node_group_ids:`, so an empty set skipped it — membership, group status and the public-group gate together — and the offer was relayed. Since AV1 made an empty claim mean "no groups" rather than "all of my owner's", that is the *normal* registration of a node hosting nothing: the unconfigured node left running, the machine in this register's founding incident, and the one least able to absorb the work. Each offer makes it allocate an RTCPeerConnection and gather ICE, 30 a minute, which is H6 restored in exactly the case AV1 made common. It is refused now. Nothing legitimate is lost: such a node refuses the handshake anyway — `group_id` is mandatory (M1) and a node with no group key refuses (NS8) — so this declines work the node would decline one step later at its own expense. **The node list.** `GET /v1/groups/{id}/nodes` checked membership only for a public group with public groups switched off. A private one answered any authenticated account that knew the id — which an ex-member knows for ever — with the ids and public keys of the machines hosting it. §7.4 already stated the property for the public case. Membership is required now unless the group is public and public groups are on. Nothing needs the list before joining: an open join writes the membership row first, and an invitation registers the invitee's when the code is created, both checked before making the change. `test_webrtc_signaling_roundtrip` had to be repaired, and is the finding restated: it registered a node in `_connected_nodes` and never in `_node_groups`, so it drove the relay through the hole rather than through the door — the check it routed around was the defect. It now registers the group a real node registers. §7.2 and §7.3 gain the rules, the register AV24 and AV25, and test_availability_between_members.py two cases that fail on the property against the previous source.

* fix(hub): no mail from the event loop, and a ceiling on every path that sends itChristophe Besson2026-09-121-0/+132
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | `users.py` and `admin.py` under the availability lens. `admin.py` needed nothing — its moderator/admin line is drawn explicitly, self-modification is refused, and every list it serves is bounded. `users.py` had four findings and one of them is the worst of this whole pass. AV9 `mail._send` is `smtplib` with a ten-second timeout, called straight from four async handlers. That wait is not one request's, it is the instance's: nothing else served, no node socket read, no WebRTC offer relayed, until the MTA answers. Reachable by any signed-in user at request rate through the endpoint below. It has no symptom a test catches — everything simply works slowly, for everyone, whenever the mail server is having a bad day. AV10 `PATCH /v1/users/me` is the third path that makes the hub send mail and the only one with neither a rate limit nor a captcha, while `register` and `password/reset-request` have both. The address is any string the caller types and the duplicate check only rejects one already held by an account here, so every address *not* registered on this hub was a valid target: a relay for verification codes with the hub's own reputation attached. A rate limit counting by IP bounds a caller and not an inbox, so the floor under it is a cooldown per account — the same for a reset request, whose cost also lands in a mailbox that is not the asker's. AV11 `default_tab:` accepted any suffix on a `{key:path}` route with an unbounded Text value and no cap on rows: one account could write without limit into a table shared with everyone. The suffix is a group id, which is what the SPA writes, so it is checked as one. A key over 64 characters was also a 500 rather than a 400 — the column is String(64), which PostgreSQL enforces and SQLite does not, so it would have appeared in production and in no test. AV12 `/v1/notifications` and `/v1/groups` had no upper bound on `limit` and no floor under `offset`, while every list in `admin.py` carries `le=200`. The group directory takes no authentication at all. Two shapes recur and are now named in §13.5b: a limit written on one of several equivalent paths, and a bound that counts the wrong thing.

* fix: bound what one member can cost the othersChristophe Besson2026-09-121-0/+388
An availability review, prompted by the group claim above: a participant supplies input — who else bears the cost? Six answers where the cost fell on someone other than the sender, and none of them needs an attacker. AV3 `chat_notify` carried a `group_id` the hub believed, so any connected node could write a notification to every member of any group on the hub, carrying a display string of its choosing, with its account having no relation to that group. This is the group claim again, two hundred lines further down the same socket. Gated on what the node is registered for, and metered: the fan-out is one write per member. The budget expires by time rather than on disconnect, or reconnecting would refill it and a node token is good for an hour. AV4 A swarm source named its own `endpoint` as free text documented as "ip:port", so an account could publish a third party's address — H6's `peer_ip` defect, never applied here. Nothing dials a swarm source today, which is the only reason it was not already a reflection primitive. It is a transport and a port now, never a host, and the number of hashes one account may claim is bounded: rows were keyed (hash, account) with no cap at all. AV5 `handle_webrtc_answer` resolved any pending `peer_id` from any node's socket. The answer is the SDP a browser then connects to. That this had not happened rested on a uuid4 being unguessable. AV6 `relay_register` had no authentication of any kind: it compared `pk_relay` against the approved value, which is a *public* key, so anyone who could read it could rewrite where the hub tells nodes to send relayed traffic. The module docstring promised signed JWTs and `jwt` was imported and never used. AV7 The node held unlimited peer connections and kept one that never completed a handshake for the life of the daemon. H6 bounded what one unauthenticated peer costs; the hub's cap is three offers in flight per *account*, a limit on each caller and not on the machine, so an operator's exposure grew with the size of their groups. AV8 `invite-notify` put a request-supplied `group_name` into the subject of an email the hub sends under its own domain, to any account, with no rate limit. The name comes from the group row now. The tests are two accounts each, in one file that says why: a one-member test proves a one-member property, and every finding here needed a second person to exist at all. Each was checked against the unfixed code. Two did not survive that check and were rewritten — one re-enacted the disconnect path instead of running it (hence `forget_node`), the other called the reaper itself and would have passed with the call removed from `handle_offer`.
