Publishing 127.0.0.1:8787 removed the only working access path for installs
reached through a host or WSL IP, without an obvious way back. Keep loopback as
the default and let ARTEX_BIND_ADDR override it (0.0.0.0 restores the old
behaviour; the setup token still protects the first-run claim).
POST /api/auth/init accepted any caller while auth.password_hash was empty,
so whoever reached port 8787 first could set the admin password and take the
instance. When no password is set at startup, the server now generates a
random one-time setup token and writes it to the server log. authInit
compares it in constant time, rejects a missing or wrong token with 403, and
clears it once the password is stored.
The setup page has a field for the token and api.initPassword sends it.
docker-compose publishes 8787 on 127.0.0.1 only, like 8788. README says where
to find the token.
docker-compose.yml referenced autumn27/artex:latest. That repository is gone
(404), but the Docker Hub account is alive, so whoever holds that name can
publish the tag and every compose pull would run their image. A local review
of the published artifacts found the same class of risk still present on the
default install path after #125 removed the in-app updater.
Build from the checkout instead, and make update.sh stop when git pull cannot
fast-forward: it used to warn, rebuild the old tree and print 'Build complete',
which is what every clone made before the 2026-10-23 history rewrite now hits.
Comments, doc comments, UI labels, log and error messages, LLM prompt
strings, markdown docs, test data and assertions. Identifiers, enum
keys, routes, placeholders and code structure are unchanged.
Notes:
- docs/漏洞流量证据.md renamed to docs/vulnerability-traffic-evidence.md
- tests that exercised CJK specific handling (GBK zip names, Chinese
full text search) now use ASCII equivalents; go build passes and the
test suite matches the pre translation baseline (remaining failures
need a PostgreSQL DSN and fail identically on the original)
- frontend mention syntax now uses English kinds (finding, asset, ...)
matching the backend, chat mentions tests pass
