- Created server/utils/logCapture.js to intercept and buffer server output, stripping ANSI escape codes.
- Created server/middleware/logStreamAuth.js enforcing subnet IP filtering (LOG_ALLOW_SUBNETS), Emby session cookie, Basic Auth fallback, and X-Webhook-Secret header bypass.
- Created server/routes/debug.js with SSE streams /api/debug/server-logs, /api/debug/client-logs and batched POST /api/debug/client-logs. Exposes public configuration status at /api/debug/status.
- Integrated log capture and mounted debug routes in server/app.js and server/index.js.
- Implemented client/src/utils/clientLogCapture.js in the frontend SPA to hook console log/warn/error and flush batched console events.
- Documented all endpoints in OpenAPI server/openapi.yaml, ARCHITECTURE.md, and README.md.
- Wrote route integration tests and frontend console capture tests, with full validation in swagger-coverage.
#7 isAdmin trusted from unsigned cookie:
- isAdmin is derived server-side from Emby Policy at login time
- Cookie is now signed (HMAC) when COOKIE_SECRET env var is set;
Express rejects tampered signatures (signedCookies returns false)
- dashboard.js /user-downloads and /status now use requireAuth
middleware (req.user) instead of re-parsing cookie directly
#8 cookie-parser used without signing secret:
- cookieParser(COOKIE_SECRET) in index.js when env var is set
- Hard-fails at startup in production if COOKIE_SECRET unset
- Warns in development
#9 Cookie JSON parsed without schema validation:
- parseSessionCookie() in auth.js and requireAuth.js both validate:
id (non-empty string), name (non-empty string), isAdmin (boolean)
- Invalid/tampered cookies return null / 401 respectively
#1 Session cookie: add secure (production-only) and sameSite=strict
to prevent transmission over HTTP and cross-site request abuse.
#2 Remove Emby AccessToken from cookie payload — it was stored in
the browser cookie but is never needed client-side; reduces blast
radius if cookie is ever exposed.
#3 Add requireAuth middleware to all proxy routes (/api/emby,
/api/sabnzbd, /api/sonarr, /api/radarr) — previously unauthenticated,
now require a valid emby_user session cookie.
#4 Remove open CORS wildcard (cors() with no options). The frontend
is served from the same origin so no CORS headers are required.
Also update clearCookie() to include matching cookie options.
