The previous fix defaulted PLATFORM_URL to this deployment's own domain
directly in docker-compose.prod.yml — any other deployment of this repo
would silently inherit it if they forgot to set their own. Now there is
no default at all: the compose file requires the env var to be set, and
the backend refuses to start in production if PLATFORM_URL still equals
the dev value, mirroring the existing SECRET_KEY enforcement.
Set-password links in every password-setup/reset email pointed at
http://localhost:5173 in production because PLATFORM_URL was never mapped
in docker-compose.prod.yml's backend environment block — the app silently
used its dev default. Now defaults to the real domain from CORS_ORIGINS.
Critical (1-3):
- Replace hardcoded admin credentials with secure auto-generation (seed.py)
- Enforce SECRET_KEY configuration, fail in production if missing (config.py)
- Add Zip Slip and Zip Bomb protection to all ZIP import services
High/Medium (4-9):
- Add 50MB file size limit and extension whitelist to evidence uploads
- Configure CORS origins via environment variable instead of hardcoded
- Migrate JWT storage from localStorage to HttpOnly cookies (frontend+backend)
- Add rate limiting (5/min) on login endpoint via slowapi
- Replace generic dict payloads with Pydantic schemas (mass assignment)
Medium (10-17):
- Check is_active on login to prevent disabled users from authenticating
- Sanitize exception messages in API responses (system, data_sources)
- Escape LIKE wildcards in all ilike search filters across 8 routers
- Run Docker container as non-root user (appuser)
- Make MINIO_SECURE configurable via environment variable
- Add password complexity policy (12+ chars, upper/lower/digit/special)
- Implement JWT token revocation via in-memory blacklist + reduce TTL to 15min
- Replace xml.etree with defusedxml to prevent Billion Laughs attacks
Low (18-20):
- Add security headers to Nginx (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS-ready, etc.)
- Disable Swagger UI/ReDoc/OpenAPI in production
- Restrict /health endpoint to internal networks via Nginx ACL
Also: rewrite install.sh as interactive wizard for guided deployment,
fix test-from-template validation error (technique_id UUID vs MITRE ID)
- Update docker-compose.yml with frontend service and healthchecks
- Add frontend Dockerfile with dev and production stages
- Add nginx.conf for production frontend serving
- Add docker-compose.prod.yml for production deployment
- Add .env.example with all configuration options
- Add init scripts (init.sh, init.ps1) for easy setup
