The previous commit metered the paths that send mail. It was not enough, and
saying it was would have been wrong: a 60-second cooldown per account still
allows one stranger a minute — 1440 a day — and registration is open, so
"per account" is a bound an attacker buys more of. And there was a third door
nobody had counted.
POST /v1/users/register an address nobody has verified
PATCH /v1/users/me an address nobody has verified, signed in
POST /v1/users/password/reset only the address already on file
POST /v1/groups/{id}/invite-notify only a registered member's address
The widest was the register *resend* branch: no token, no captcha, and the
username and address are the caller's own from a moment ago — registering a
victim's address once bought the right to mail them at the endpoint's rate
limit for as long as the account stayed pending.
So the bound moves into `mail.py`, where every message passes one function.
`purpose` is keyword-required and checked against a closed list, so a helper
that names anything else does not send and one that names nothing is a
TypeError rather than an unrestricted send. Under it:
- a bound per **recipient**, across every purpose, account and endpoint —
what a person being mail-bombed actually experiences, and the only bound
that describes it. Keyed on a hash, because this would otherwise be the
one place in the hub holding plaintext addresses in memory (S2)
- an instance-wide hourly ceiling, which cannot be bought with more accounts
- a cooldown on the resend branch, a cooldown and a daily ceiling on the
address change, and the IP-log entry that endpoint never wrote — alone
among the ones that mail
The ceiling on address changes counts IP-log rows, not EmailVerification: the
handler deletes this account's unverified rows before writing a new one, so
counting those counts one, always. Which is what the first version of it did.
Refusals never carry the address: that line goes to the journal.

The passphrase derives two independent client-side values: auth_key (the
hub verifier) and bundle_key (AES-GCM key for the per-node identity
bundles, which live on nodes and never on the hub). Changing or
recovering a passphrase is therefore two operations — swap the hub
verifier, and re-wrap every reachable node's identity bundle.
Flow A — change a known passphrase (Profile page)
- POST /v1/users/password re-proves the current passphrase, swaps
pw_hash/salt/version, revokes every refresh token and returns a fresh
pair so the tab that made the change stays signed in.
- MeshBayTransport.rewrapAllNodes: for every group's online node, connect
with the old key, read the identity off the handshake, store it back
under the new key. Returns updated / unreachable / failed so the UI can
point at the operator-unpin fallback for the gaps. Always-shown
confirmation dialog listing reachable and unreachable groups.
Recovery key
- keyderive.js generateRecoveryKey (32 random bytes, grouped Base32) and
deriveRecoveryKey (HKDF-SHA256, domain meshbay:recovery:v1:<username>).
- Every per-node identity gets a second copy wrapped under the recovery
key: keypair_bundles.bundle_enc_recovery (node-only column, added in
_SCHEMA_KEYPAIR and via a PRAGMA-guarded ALTER for existing DBs),
carried on keypair_bundle_store / _resp. MNP 0.13 -> 0.14, additive.
- session.recoveryKey is persisted in IndexedDB (slot rk) and lazy-loaded
on connect, so a group joined in any later session still leaves a
recovery copy.
- Shown once at registration; optionally folded into the verification
e-mail as a pass-through the hub never stores or logs, with an opt-out.
- Profile -> Recovery key re-loads R and backfills every reachable node
via rewrapAllNodes in bundleKey mode (no passphrase re-entry).
Flow B — recover a lost passphrase (#/reset, linked from sign-in)
- POST /v1/users/password/reset-request {username, email}: both must be
the pair on file, checked against the blind email_hash (never
decrypted). A mismatch — wrong e-mail, unknown username, non-active
account — takes the identical no-op path (no code, no mail, same 200),
so it reveals nothing and cannot be used to spray reset mail from a
username alone. 5/min, 1-hour single-use code.
- POST /v1/users/password/reset {username, code, new_auth_key}: same
expiry / attempts / single-use checks as e-mail verification; revokes
every session and deletes every registered device key so a stored one
cannot sign back in past the reset.
- ResetPasswordPage: request code -> code + optional recovery key + new
passphrase -> reset + sign-in -> fan-out. connect() falls back to the
recovery-wrapped copy when the passphrase key cannot open bundle_enc.
Without a recovery key: sign-in is restored and each group needs the
operator-unpin fallback.
Supporting fixes (found in live testing)
- member unpin now also deletes the keypair bundle; connect() mints a
fresh identity when handed a bundle it cannot open (unless _rewrapOnly,
set by rewrapAllNodes), so a rejoin completes instead of dead-ending
before the invite-code prompt.
- A browser with no bundle key gets a passphrase prompt on the group page
instead of a "go back to the browser you registered on" message.
- RegisterPage / LoginPage / ResetPasswordPage trim the username so every
key derivation matches the hub's stored form.
Docs: docs/auth-confirm.md. Locale keys across all ten catalogues.
Tests: test_password_change, test_password_reset, test_recovery_email,
test_recovery_key, test_rewrap_fanout, test_bundle_store_recovery, plus
additions to test_admin_ops_mnp and test_webrtc_transport. Hub suite 492
passed; node suite 741 passed (the lone test_packaging_units failure is a
pre-existing RPM-spec flake, reproducible on main).
