A release-readiness QA pass over the whole product. The commits split into
defects a user would hit and gates that were reporting green while measuring
nothing.
## Fixes that change behaviour
Rate limiting was bypassable on every install: TRUST_PROXY defaulted to true, so
request.ip came from a client-set header and a forged X-Forwarded-For got past
the login limiter. The default is now a private-network trust list.
A transient Postgres outage stranded in-flight jobs, leaving finished output on
disk with no row pointing at it. A reconciler now resolves those rows and adopts
the bytes rather than dropping the work.
A Redis connection that moved to a new address wedged every read-blocked
consumer, so completions stopped signalling while health still answered 200.
Socket timeouts plus subscriber pings recover it.
Installing more than one AI bundle left the shared venv multi-versioned and
silently broke three tools. The installer now reconciles distributions to one
version each.
Converting an image to JXL at quality 1 through 4 returned a 500, because
libjxl 0.7 rejects the distance those values compute. The quality is floored at
what the encoder honours. A missing ffmpeg was also reported to the user as a
corrupt upload; it now says the engine is unavailable.
RAW uploads reached an unpatched LibRaw on arm64, so it is built from source at
0.22.2, and the release scan was split so it can fail on an unfixed critical
instead of hiding it behind ignore-unfixed.
## Gates that could not fail
Two mutation lanes ran zero mutants because Stryker crawled the gitignored docs
build; coverage discarded its whole report on any failing test; the lint gate
skipped root tests, scripts, and two workspaces; and several generated matrices
counted a host missing ffmpeg as a passing tool. Each now measures what it
claims.
Full evidence and the outstanding release items are tracked locally and are not
part of this branch.
Follow-up to a full re-audit of the 2.0 tree. Most prior findings were already
fixed; this closes the ones that were not:
- SAML assertion replay: validateInResponseTo ifPresent plus a Redis-backed
CacheProvider, so a captured signed assertion cannot be replayed. ifPresent
keeps IdP-initiated SSO working.
- MFA login challenge burned after 5 wrong TOTP codes.
- api_keys.key_prefix indexed; the per-request lookup was a full table scan.
- MAX_AI_JOBS_PER_USER caps a user's in-flight single-file AI jobs (the AI pool
runs at concurrency 1). Batch and pipeline AI stay uncapped.
- MAX_WORKSPACE_SIZE_GB enforced instead of being dead config.
- SUBPROCESS_MEMORY_LIMIT_MB (default off) for the native media and doc engines;
not applied to the AI sidecar.
- SVG sanitizer closes unquoted and whitespace-prefixed javascript: hrefs and
the animateTransform/animateMotion/handler/mpath elements.
- Windows-style paths stripped from error output to match the Sentry scrubber.
- Postgres and Redis compose services get cap_drop plus pids_limit and cpus.
- .env.example ships MAX_SVG_SIZE_MB=50 (0 disabled the cap).
Adds security-focused unit and integration tests. typecheck, biome, and the
full unit and integration suites pass.
Pin the compose Postgres healthchecks to POSTGRES_DB (pg_isready was
defaulting to the username, silently reporting healthy while spamming
FATAL logs when USER and DB differ), and make docker/wait-for-postgres.mjs
log the target host and error code instead of a silent retry loop. Adds a
change-me note next to the default password in README and Docker Hub.
Refs #592
* fix(api): prevent a crash when an over-limit upload stream has no consumer yet
busboy's "limit" handler destroyed the file stream with an error but never
attached its own error listener, relying entirely on whatever consumes
part.file downstream to do so. On a fast enough connection (or a fully
buffered body, e.g. Fastify inject()), busboy can process enough bytes to
hit the size limit before the route handler's receiveUpload() call has
attached its own stream listener, leaving the resulting "error" event with
zero listeners -- which crashes the whole process by default in Node.
Surfaced by tonight's FULL_MATRIX+FUZZ integration run (880 uncaught
exceptions, all the same root cause). Reproduces deterministically in
isolation; unrelated to this release's actual code delta (file untouched
since PR #413, well before the baseline QA pass).
Fix: attach a baseline no-op error listener the moment the stream is
created, guaranteeing at least one listener always exists. EventEmitter
delivers "error" to every registered listener, so the real consumer's own
error handling is unaffected.
* fix(ai-bundles): rebuild upscale-enhance and photo-restoration to reconcile scipy ABI
upscale-enhance and photo-restoration both depend on codeformer-pip, whose
transitive closure (basicsr -> realesrgan -> gfpgan) pulls in an unpinned
scipy. Both bundles were last built ~June 18-19, before PR #437 added the
manifest's `constraints` array (numpy==1.26.4, scipy==1.12.0, etc.) to pin
exactly this kind of dependency during bundle builds. Only the ocr bundle
was rebuilt after that fix landed.
install_feature.py has no pip install step -- it's a raw tarfile extraction
with no cross-bundle conflict resolution, so installing OCR alongside either
stale bundle left three incompatible scipy versions' files mixed in the same
site-packages directory (a compiled _rotation.*.so from one release next to
Python files expecting a different release's API), breaking the `upscale`
tool and OCR's higher-quality tiers with an ImportError.
Rebuilt both bundles for amd64-gpu and arm64-cpu from the current manifest,
verified scipy/scikit-learn/scikit-image/pandas all resolve to the pinned
versions in the tarballs themselves, then verified end-to-end on real
hardware (Mac arm64 CPU and ubuntu_gpu .248 RTX 4070): installing all
affected bundles together now yields exactly one version of each constrained
package, `upscale` produces correct output, and OCR's balanced/best tiers
correctly use PaddleOCR-GPU instead of erroring out.
Published the rebuilt tarballs to the public deepsafe/feature-bundles
HuggingFace repo and updated this manifest's sha256/sizes to match.
Also adds verify-bundle-compatibility.sh: verify-bundle.sh checks each
bundle in isolation (a fresh venv per bundle), which is exactly why this
shipped twice -- nothing ever checked that bundles built at different times
agree once layered into the one shared venv real installs use. The new
script installs every bundle for an arch into one venv and asserts each
constrained package has exactly one, correct version.
Known follow-up (not fixed here, needs separate discussion): uninstalling a
bundle only removes its downloaded model weights, never the site-packages
it added, so existing installations that already hit this bug have no clean
self-service fix via uninstall+reinstall -- they need a full AI-venv wipe.
* fix(docker): bake a real rate limit default for the all-in-one one-liner
The documented single-container `docker run` install had RATE_LIMIT_PER_MIN=0
(effectively unlimited, ~50k/min) baked in, since only docker-compose.yml
carried a hardened override. A self-hoster following the one-liner path got
no meaningful throttling anywhere, including auth-adjacent routes with no
dedicated per-route limit. Bakes a generous-but-real 1000/min default into
the Dockerfile, raises both compose files' fallback to match so the two
documented install paths converge on the same posture, and updates the Zod
schema default plus docs that quoted the old value.
* fix(api): boot log undercounted tool routes by the conversion-preset total
The "Tool routes: N active" line logged before registerConversionPresets(app)
ran, so it only ever reported the base 158 tools, 83 short of the real
241-tool total. Presets have to register after the base loop (they delegate
to each base tool's own processV2), so the fix moves the log line to after
that call and has registerConversionPresets return its count instead of
reordering the dependency.
* fix(ai): forward {info}/{warning} stderr JSON instead of dropping it
The dispatcher stderr parser only recognized {ready} and {progress,stage}
shaped JSON lines; anything else that parsed as valid JSON (like ocr.py's
GPU-to-tesseract downgrade notice, an {"info": ...} line) matched neither
branch and fell through silently, never reaching docker logs. Adds explicit
{info}/{warning} handling that forwards to console.log/console.warn, same as
the existing [prefix]-tagged non-JSON path.
* fix(api): fall back to a lower OCR tier when PaddleOCR itself is unusable
ocr.ts already retries lower quality tiers on a crashed dispatcher, but the
condition only matched crash-style messages (segfault, exited unexpectedly).
ocr.py's own ImportError/exception handlers already produce messages telling
the caller to use a lower tier (e.g. on the scipy ABI conflict class of bug),
but nothing ever acted on them, so a broken PaddleOCR hard-failed with 422
instead of degrading to Tesseract like ocr-pdf effectively does. Broadens the
retry condition to also catch PaddleOCR-engine-unusable messages.
Note: ocr-pdf's tesseract-only behavior turned out to be an unrelated,
pre-existing, deliberate design choice (PaddleOCR segfaults on rasterized PDF
pages on arm64), not a graceful-fallback mechanism to copy -- the two tools
weren't actually solving the same problem, so this fixes ocr.ts's own gap
rather than trying to mirror ocr-pdf.
* fix(docker): pin CUDA base to 12.6 so the GPU image starts on R560+ drivers
The amd64 base nvidia/cuda:12.9.2-cudnn-runtime bakes a cuda>=12.9 driver gate enforced by nvidia-container-toolkit at container start, so the image fails to launch on common production drivers (e.g. 570.x / CUDA 12.8). The AI bundles are all cu126 wheels and the image installs libcublas-12-6, so 12.9 was misaligned with the workload. Pin to nvidia/cuda:12.6.3-cudnn-runtime-ubuntu24.04 to match the wheels and lower the driver floor to R560+.
* fix(ai): broaden OOM detection so the rembg lighter-model fallback fires
onnxruntime/CUDA allocation failures surface as 'Failed to allocate memory for requested buffer', CUBLAS_STATUS_ALLOC_FAILED, or bad_alloc, not just 'out of memory'. The background-removal and transparency-fixer fallback-to-lighter-model paths only matched the literal 'out of memory', so the fallback was dead code and transparency-fixer (default birefnet-hr-matting) always failed with an allocation error. Add isMemoryAllocError() and use it in both checks.
* fix(ai): use bundled PaddleOCR models so OCR runs offline
ocr.py passed no model dirs to PaddleOCR, so PaddleX resolved models from ~/.paddlex and downloaded them from HuggingFace at runtime (slow first use, broken air-gapped), ignoring the models the OCR bundle ships in MODELS_PATH; it also pulled doc-orientation/unwarping models that are not bundled. Pin detection, recognition and textline models to the bundled dirs in MODELS_PATH (per language) and disable use_doc_orientation_classify / use_doc_unwarping, with per-component fallback when a model is absent. Verified: OCR runs with zero HuggingFace requests.
* fix(docker): add CAP_KILL so container shutdown is graceful
cap_drop: ALL without re-adding KILL meant tini (PID 1, root) could not forward SIGTERM to the gosu-dropped snapotter process (root minus CAP_KILL cannot signal a different UID). docker stop logged '[FATAL tini] forwarding signal: Operation not permitted', never delivered the signal, and fell back to SIGKILL after the 10s timeout. Add KILL to cap_add in both compose files. Verified: docker stop completes in 0s with SIGTERM delivered (exit 143) and no FATAL tini.
* fix(ai): serialize bundle installs against AI jobs to prevent sidecar segfault
A feature bundle install rewrites the shared Python venv (pip + copytree of site-packages/*.so) as a background subprocess, with no coordination against AI tool jobs that dlopen native libs (torch / onnxruntime CUDA) from the same venv; a job loading a shared object while it is overwritten segfaults the sidecar. Add a process-wide async mutex (venv-lock.ts): bridge.run() acquires it before every AI script and the install route holds it across the installer subprocess. Both run in the same Node process so a module-level lock suffices. Verified: concurrent install + AI job produces zero segfaults and the job serializes behind the install.
* fix(ai): make the venv lock read/write so concurrent AI jobs are not serialized
The first cut used an exclusive mutex, which (a) deferred the dispatcher spawn by a microtask and broke unit tests that synchronously drive the mocked spawn, and (b) serialized AI jobs against each other, removing the dispatcher's by-id request multiplexing. Make it a writer-preferring read/write lock: AI jobs are shared readers (with a synchronous fast path so spawn still happens in-tick) and a bundle install is the exclusive writer. Verified: all 764 AI unit tests pass.
* fix(ai): degrade OCR to Tesseract on CPU-only hosts instead of segfaulting
The amd64 AI bundle ships paddlepaddle-gpu, whose native libs dlopen
libcuda.so.1 at import and segfault on a host without a GPU (libcuda is the
driver lib, injected only by nvidia-container-toolkit on GPU hosts). The
segfault crashed the shared long-lived AI dispatcher and, after a few attempts,
tripped the bridge crash-recovery permanent-disable, wedging all AI until a
container restart. The standalone ocr tool defaults to quality=balanced
(PaddleOCR), so it hit this on every CPU-only deployment; ocr-pdf already
hardcoded Tesseract and was unaffected.
ocr.py now gates the PaddleOCR tiers on gpu_available(): balanced/best
transparently fall back to fast (Tesseract, CPU-capable) when no usable GPU is
present, and run_paddleocr_v5/run_paddleocr_vl refuse before importing paddle so
the GPU build is never dlopen'd on CPU. GPU hosts are unchanged.
Verified on a CPU-only Windows/WSL2 box: ocr returns Tesseract text across
repeated runs with the dispatcher staying healthy (no wedge).
