Eliminates XSS token theft risk by storing session JWTs in an httpOnly
cookie (trek_session) instead of localStorage, making them inaccessible
to JavaScript entirely.
- Add cookie-parser middleware and setAuthCookie/clearAuthCookie helpers
- Set trek_session cookie on login, register, demo-login, MFA verify, OIDC exchange
- Auth middleware reads cookie first, falls back to Authorization: Bearer (MCP unchanged)
- Add POST /api/auth/logout to clear the cookie server-side
- Remove all localStorage auth_token reads/writes from client
- Axios uses withCredentials; raw fetch calls use credentials: include
- WebSocket ws-token exchange uses credentials: include (no JWT param)
- authStore initialises isLoading: true so ProtectedRoute waits for /api/auth/me

Replace duplicated inline validation with a shared validatePassword()
utility that checks minimum length (8), rejects repetitive and common
passwords, and requires uppercase, lowercase, a digit, and a special
character.
- Add server/src/services/passwordPolicy.ts as single source of truth
- Apply to registration, password change, and admin create/edit user
(admin routes previously had zero validation)
- Fix client min-length mismatch (6 vs 8) in RegisterPage and LoginPage
- Add client-side password length guard to AdminPage forms
- Update register.passwordTooShort and settings.passwordWeak i18n keys
in all 12 locales to reflect the corrected requirements
TOTP brute-force is a realistic attack once a password is compromised:
with no independent throttle, an attacker shared the login budget (10
attempts) across /login, /register, and /mfa/verify-login, and
/mfa/enable had no rate limiting at all.
- Add a dedicated `mfaAttempts` store so MFA limits are tracked
separately from login attempts
- Introduce `mfaLimiter` (5 attempts / 15 min) applied to both
/mfa/verify-login and /mfa/enable
- Refactor `rateLimiter()` to accept an optional store parameter,
keeping all existing call-sites unchanged
- Include mfaAttempts in the periodic cleanup interval
Addresses CWE-598: long-lived JWTs were exposed in WebSocket URLs, file
download links, and Immich asset proxy URLs, leaking into server logs,
browser history, and Referer headers.
- Add ephemeralTokens service: in-memory single-use tokens with per-purpose
TTLs (ws=30s, download/immich=60s), max 10k entries, periodic cleanup
- Add POST /api/auth/ws-token and POST /api/auth/resource-token endpoints
- WebSocket auth now consumes an ephemeral token instead of verifying the JWT
directly from the URL; client fetches a fresh token before each connect
- File download ?token= query param now accepts ephemeral tokens; Bearer
header path continues to accept JWTs for programmatic access
- Immich asset proxy replaces authFromQuery JWT injection with ephemeral token
consumption
- Client: new getAuthUrl() utility, AuthedImg/ImmichImg components, and async
onClick handlers replace the synchronous authUrl() pattern throughout
FileManager, PlaceInspector, and MemoriesPanel
- Add OIDC_DISCOVERY_URL env var and oidc_discovery_url DB setting to allow
overriding the auto-constructed discovery endpoint (required for Authentik
and similar providers); exposed in the admin UI and .env.example
The smtp_pass setting was stored as plaintext in app_settings, exposing
SMTP credentials to anyone with database read access. Apply the same
encrypt_api_key/decrypt_api_key pattern already used for OIDC client
secrets and API keys. A new migration transparently re-encrypts any
existing plaintext value on startup; decrypt_api_key handles legacy
plaintext gracefully so in-flight reads remain safe during upgrade.
Adds a full permissions management feature allowing admins to control
who can perform actions across the app (trip CRUD, files, places,
budget, packing, reservations, collab, members, share links).
- New server/src/services/permissions.ts: 16 configurable actions,
in-memory cache, checkPermission() helper, backwards-compatible
defaults matching upstream behaviour
- GET/PUT /admin/permissions endpoints; permissions loaded into
app-config response so clients have them on startup
- checkPermission() applied to all mutating route handlers across
10 server route files; getTripOwnerId() helper eliminates repeated
inline DB queries; trips.ts and files.ts now reuse canAccessTrip()
result to avoid redundant DB round-trips
- New client/src/store/permissionsStore.ts: Zustand store +
useCanDo() hook; TripOwnerContext type accepts both Trip and
DashboardTrip shapes without casting at call sites
- New client/src/components/Admin/PermissionsPanel.tsx: categorised
UI with per-action dropdowns, customised badge, save/reset
- AdminPage, DashboardPage, FileManager, PlacesSidebar,
TripMembersModal gated via useCanDo(); no prop drilling
- 46 perm.* translation keys added to all 12 language files
- Add configurable trip reminder days (1, 3, 9 or custom up to 30) settable by trip owner
- Grant administrators full access to edit, archive, delete, view and list all trips
- Show trip owner email in audit logs and docker logs when admin edits/deletes another user's trip
- Show target user email in audit logs when admin edits or deletes a user account
- Use email instead of username in all notifications (Discord/Slack/email) to avoid ambiguity
- Grey out notification event toggles when no SMTP/webhook is configured
- Grey out trip reminder selector when notifications are disabled
- Skip local admin account creation when OIDC_ONLY=true with OIDC configured
- Conditional scheduler logging: show disabled reason or active reminder count
- Log per-owner reminder creation/update in docker logs
- Demote 401/403 HTTP errors to DEBUG log level to reduce noise
- Hide edit/archive/delete buttons for non-owner invited users on trip cards
- Fix literal "0" rendering on trip cards from SQLite numeric is_owner field
- Add missing translation keys across all 14 language files
Made-with: Cursor
- Add centralized notification service with webhook (Discord/Slack) and
email (SMTP) support, triggered for trip invites, booking changes,
collab messages, and trip reminders
- Webhook sends one message per event (group channel); email sends
individually per trip member, excluding the actor
- Discord invite notifications now include the invited user's name
- Add LOG_LEVEL env var (info/debug) controlling console and file output
- INFO logs show user email, action, and IP for audit events; errors
for HTTP requests
- DEBUG logs show every request with full body/query (passwords redacted),
audit details, notification params, and webhook payloads
- Add persistent trek.log file logging with 10MB rotation (5 files)
in /app/data/logs/
- Color-coded log levels in Docker console output
- Timestamps without timezone name (user sets TZ via Docker)
- Add Test Webhook and Save buttons to admin notification settings
- Move notification event toggles to admin panel
- Add daily trip reminder scheduler (9 AM, timezone-aware)
- Wire up booking create/update/delete and collab message notifications
- Add i18n keys for notification UI across all 13 languages
Made-with: Cursor
- Add { algorithms: ['HS256'] } to all jwt.verify() calls to prevent
algorithm confusion attacks (including the 'none' algorithm)
- Add { algorithm: 'HS256' } to all jwt.sign() calls for consistency
- Reduce OIDC token payload to only { id } (was leaking username, email, role)
- Validate OIDC redirect URI against APP_URL env var when configured
- Add startup warning when JWT_SECRET is auto-generated

Keep MFA backup codes visible after enabling MFA by avoiding protected-route unmount during user reload (`loadUser({ silent: true })`) and restoring pending backup codes from sessionStorage until the user explicitly dismisses them.
Add an admin-controlled `require_mfa` policy in App Settings and expose it via `/auth/app-config` so the client can enforce it globally. Users without MFA are redirected to Settings after login and blocked from protected API/WebSocket access until setup is completed, while preserving MFA setup endpoints and admin recovery paths. Also prevent enabling the policy unless the acting admin already has MFA enabled, and block MFA disable while the policy is active. Includes UI toggle in Admin > Settings, required-policy notice in Settings, client-side 403 `MFA_REQUIRED` handling, and i18n updates for all supported locales.
- Language change on public shared page no longer triggers API call / login redirect
- New "Skip TLS certificate check" toggle in Admin > SMTP settings
- Also configurable via SMTP_SKIP_TLS_VERIFY=true env var
Audit logging for admin actions, backups, auth events.
New AuditLogPanel in Admin tab with pagination.
Dockerfile security: run as non-root user.
i18n keys for all 9 languages.
Thanks @fgbona for the implementation!

- Collab chat message
- Packing list category assignment
User Notification Preferences:
- Per-user toggle for each event type in Settings
- Addon-aware: Vacay/Collab/Photos toggles hidden when addon disabled
- Webhook opt-in per user
ICS Calendar Export:
- Download button next to PDF in day plan header
- Exports trip dates + all reservations with details
- Compatible with Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook
Technical:
- Nodemailer for SMTP

Add UI controls for configuring auto-backup schedule with hour, day of
week, and day of month pickers. The hour picker respects the user's
12h/24h time format preference from settings.
Add TZ environment variable support via docker-compose so the container
runs in the configured timezone. The timezone is passed to node-cron for
accurate scheduling and exposed via the API so the UI displays it.
Fix SQLite UTC timestamp handling by appending Z suffix to all timestamps
sent to the client, ensuring proper timezone conversion in the browser.

Audit log
- Add audit_log table (migration + schema) with index on created_at.
- Add auditLog service (writeAudit, getClientIp) and record events for backups
(create, restore, upload-restore, delete, auto-settings), admin actions
(users, OIDC, invites, system update, demo baseline, bag tracking, packing
template delete, addons), and auth (app settings, MFA enable/disable).
- Add GET /api/admin/audit-log with pagination; fix invite insert row id lookup.
- Add AuditLogPanel and Admin tab; adminApi.auditLog.
- Add admin.tabs.audit and admin.audit.* strings in all locale files.
Note: Rebase feature branches so new DB migrations stay after existing ones
(e.g. file_links) when merging upstream.
Admins can create one-time registration links (1–5× or unlimited uses)
with optional expiry (1d–14d or never). Recipients can register even
when public registration is disabled. Atomic usage counting prevents
race conditions, all endpoints are rate-limited.
When OIDC is configured, admins can now enable 'Disable password
authentication' in Admin → Settings → SSO. This blocks all password-
based login and registration, forcing users through the SSO identity
provider instead.
Backend:
- routes/admin.ts: expose oidc_only flag on GET /admin/oidc and accept
it on PUT /admin/oidc (persisted to app_settings)
- routes/auth.ts: add isOidcOnlyMode() helper; block POST /auth/login,
POST /auth/register (for non-first-user), and PUT /auth/me/password
with HTTP 403 when OIDC-only mode is active
- routes/auth.ts: expose oidc_only_mode boolean in GET /auth/app-config
Frontend:
- AdminPage: toggle in OIDC/SSO settings section (oidc_only saved with
rest of OIDC config on same Save button)
- LoginPage: when oidc_only_mode is active, replace form with a
single-button OIDC redirect; hide register toggle
- SettingsPage: hide password change section when oidc_only_mode is on
- i18n (en/de): admin.oidcOnlyMode, admin.oidcOnlyModeHint,
login.oidcOnly
