The flag makes the app believe CF-Connecting-IP from every connection,
before the peer check and whatever TRUST_PROXY_HOPS says, which is safe
only when nothing but Cloudflare can reach the origin. The reverse-proxy
page now says so with the ways to get there, the compose comment and both
example files carry the same condition, and the variable is in the env
manifest. The page's list of peers whose forwarding headers are read now
matches the code: loopback, 0.0.0.0/8, private, CGNAT, link-local,
unique-local and site-local, the reserved blocks and multicast. Those last
two stay trusted, since no internet host can connect from them; a test
pins every listed range and the Cloudflare precedence.
The client-IP resolver trusted one forwarding hop by default and read the
rightmost X-Forwarded-For entry. Next fills that header with the socket's
address only when the request carries none, so a caller reaching the
published port directly could send its own and choose a fresh address per
request: every per-IP limit (sign-in, second factor, passkey, share unlock,
webhooks) became per-request, and sessions, the audit log and sign-in
notices recorded the chosen address.
The server now writes each connection's own peer address into an internal
header from Node's http.server.request.start diagnostics channel, installed
at boot and overwriting anything a caller sent under that name. The resolver
reads forwarding headers only when that peer is loopback, private,
unique-local or CGNAT, where a reverse proxy sits; a public peer is its own
client address, and a log line says once that its forwarding headers were
ignored. With TRUST_PROXY_HOPS=0 the peer is used instead of no address, so
a directly exposed host no longer shares one bucket across all anonymous
callers. Proxies on the same host, Docker network or tailnet need no change.
With TRUST_PROXY_HOPS=0 behind a proxy that sends only X-Real-IP, every
client address resolves to nothing and all anonymous sign-ins share one
rate-limit bucket, with nothing in the log to say why. The first request
that carries a forwarding header the setting does not let HealthLog read
now logs one warning naming the header and the setting to change.
X-Real-IP stood in for a missing X-Forwarded-For at any hop count. It is a
single address, so it is now read only with TRUST_PROXY_HOPS=1; with two
or more hops the chain the count describes is X-Forwarded-For.
The upload, import and native batch routes that bypass the proxy now carry
Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy and Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy like every
other response, and so do the proxy's early exits.
The env examples described an unset TRUST_PROXY_HOPS as right for a
directly exposed host; unset means one hop, and that host wants 0.
The client-IP resolver read X-Real-IP on every path: with
TRUST_PROXY_HOPS=0, which means no proxy in front and no forwarding header
to believe, and on the path where the X-Forwarded-For chain was shorter
than the declared hops, which means the proxies were bypassed. A caller
sending a new X-Real-IP with each request got a new per-IP rate-limit
bucket each time.
X-Real-IP now gets the trust X-Forwarded-For gets: it is read only when at
least one proxy hop is declared and the request carries no X-Forwarded-For.
A short chain resolves to no address. The reverse-proxy guide no longer
suggests TRUST_PROXY_HOPS=0 for a proxy that sets X-Real-IP; such a proxy
takes 1.
The note predates the whitelist fix that landed alongside the restore
permission change; keep the manual-edit instruction as a version note
for older compose files.
- geolite2: quote the real commented compose mount (./geolite2 to
/opt/geolite2, the GEOLITE2_DIR default, so no env var is needed for
the default path)
- getting-started: healthcheck probes /api/health, not /api/version;
the environment module reaches archive-api and geocoding-api
.open-meteo.com, relevant for egress allowlists
- mcp: the module is opt-in and off by default, but no longer the only
such module
- reverse-proxy: the Coach stream is SSE over plain HTTP, not
WebSockets; note that TRUST_PROXY_HOPS is not on the bundled compose
whitelist and must be added by hand
- scaling: /api/health healthcheck; worker liveness is in-memory and
invisible across a web/worker split; pool sizing now goes through
getConnectionBudget with DB_CONNECTION_LIMIT as the compose knob and
a 2-connection pg-boss share
- sso: the native SSO handoff shipped, OIDC_ONLY works with app builds
that carry it
- unraid: geo databases are baked in only when the build had a licence
key, or mounted; replaceable either way
One-shot prettier pass so the new format:check gate starts from a clean
baseline. Formatting only — no behaviour change. Generator-owned and
vendored artifacts stay untouched via .prettierignore.
With Websockets Support enabled, NPM already injects the upgrade directives via its conditional connection-upgrade map and sets the standard forwarded headers by default. Re-declaring them in the Advanced block is redundant and the hardcoded Connection "upgrade" can break the proxy host. Keep only the HealthLog-specific 300s read timeout.
v1.5.1 patch. Fixes the silent login failure self-hosters hit on
plain-HTTP origins that aren't localhost — the bundled Docker image
runs NODE_ENV=production, so every cookie carried Secure, and modern
browsers drop those on http://10.x.x.x style origins. The session
cookie never made it back to the browser, /api/auth/me returned 401,
and the login page reloaded.
New SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE env var with three values:
- unset (default) — flag follows NODE_ENV === "production" (unchanged)
- "false" — never set (LAN / VPN / Tailscale-only opt-out)
- "true" — always set (pnpm dev fronted by HTTPS)
Shared helper at src/lib/auth/secure-cookie.ts replaces four scattered
literals across session, codex device-start, and withings connect.
Six unit cases pin the decision matrix.
OpenAPI spec generator now reads info.version from package.json so
the drift gate stays meaningful instead of catching every release bump.
Default behaviour unchanged for HTTPS-fronted deployments.
Bundles the deferred v1.4.47 Mediums + Lows with the v1.4.48-deferred items
into a single release. Headline: server-side suppression of MEDICATION_REMINDER
APNs for iOS clients that own their local reminders (closes GH #206), a
push_attempts table backing /api/admin/notifications/diagnostic, and a sweep
of v1.4.48 QA forward-findings.
Performance (the user-visible win):
- /api/analytics cold-fallback path splits the heavy single-statement
aggregate into two parallel queries. The linearly composable columns
(count / min / max / mean) keep the full-partition scan; the windowed
7 / 30 / 90-day avg / slope / r² columns take a 90-day outer cap so
the planner does an index range scan on (user_id, type, measured_at)
instead of a full-partition sequential scan. Output is bit-identical;
cold slim slice drops from multi-second to sub-second on tenants with
large measurement partitions.
Server-side notifications:
- GET + PATCH /api/auth/me/notification-prefs with deep-merge semantics.
Initial category medication.clientManaged: boolean (default false). Cron
medicationReminderJob skips dose-due APNs when the flag is true,
emitting a medication_reminder.suppressed_client_managed wide-event
annotation per skip.
- push_attempts table backs the diagnostic endpoint. Every APNS /
Web-Push / Telegram / NTFY sender writes a fire-and-forget row.
Daily 03:35 Europe/Berlin cleanup prunes rows older than 90 days.
- /api/admin/notifications/diagnostic — admin-only endpoint surfacing
device APNs token presence (masked), channel config presence, and
recent push attempts. Registered in OpenAPI.
- Per-channel APNs "Send test" button now fires with
eventType: "MEDICATION_REMINDER" so the dispatcher's time-sensitive +
priority-10 branch runs. A successful self-test now exercises the
exact path production reminders take; an unsuccessful one points the
user at iOS Settings → Time Sensitive Notifications rather than
appearing to be a server-side bug.
Withings reliability:
- OAuth callback consumes the nonce atomically (delete-first with
P2025 catch for the replay branch). The previous read-then-delete
pattern allowed a race between two concurrent callbacks.
- ?reason=state redirect differentiated into csrf1 / replay / expired /
cross_user so operators can tell mismatch types apart without DB
shell access.
- connect endpoint rate-limited to 10/60s/user; row-create failures
redirect to a consistent error surface.
Observability hardening:
- redactSensitiveFields(body) denylist helper covers password / token /
secret / apiKey / authorization / csrfState / nonce, recursive,
case-insensitive. Caught: /api/devices invalid_format issues were
echoing apnsToken values verbatim into the audit log.
- sanitiseZodIssues(issues, { stripValuesFromMessage: true }) overload
applied to 14 audit-log sites.
Migrations: 0079 (notification_prefs), 0080 (push_attempts).
Tests: 4815 → 5272 unit + integration. Workout-batch integration suite
that had been red on main since v1.4.45 (three release commits shipped
through it) now green again — updated to match v1.4.42 cross-source
dedup semantics.
Resolves PR #207.
Consolidated hotfix landing the findings from a six-axis audit
covering mobile security, UX + accessibility, code quality + docs,
README + discoverability, web performance, and mobile-deep responsive
behaviour. None of the changes break the public API or the existing
data shape; every fix is additive and SAFE under the v1.4.34.x web
freeze. Full audit reports live in `.planning/round-audit-*.md`.
Security
- Password rotation now wipes API tokens + refresh tokens in the
same `$transaction` as session revocation. A stolen iOS Bearer no
longer survives a user-initiated password change or an admin reset.
- `/.well-known/` proxy bypass tightened to an explicit-allowlist
`Set`. Stale `/api/auth/codex/callback` PUBLIC_PATHS entry dropped.
- HSTS gains `preload`. Withings host removed from the global CSP
and gated to the integration's own routes.
- `getClientIp` warns once per process on `TRUST_PROXY_HOPS`/XFF
mismatch + exposes a tagged helper for tighter universal buckets.
- Service worker rejects off-origin notification-click URLs. Offline
fallback body switched to a locale-neutral icon. Manifest gains
`scope`, `id`, `display_override`.
UX + accessibility
- i18n leaks closed on Dialog/Sheet close-X, ChartSkeleton's loading
announcement, and the notifications-section breadcrumb.
- Focus rings on bottom-nav, the More overflow button, and the
mobile top-bar user menu.
- Tap-target floor: Input / NativeSelect / Select / DateTimeInput
switch to `h-11 sm:h-10`.
- Admin chip-strip auto-scroll-into-view (matches v1.4.33 settings).
- List-page subtitles visible on mobile.
- Insights empty-state CTA vocabulary normalised so the link opens
the right measurement form (was silently failing for
BODY_TEMPERATURE / BLOOD_GLUCOSE / PULSE).
Mobile-deep
- `viewport.themeColor` reacts to light/dark mode.
- TopBar + Coach FAB reserve safe-area-inset-top / -bottom for
notched iPhones.
- Sonner toaster switches to `theme="system"`.
Code quality
- `SESSION_SECRET` dropped — the env var was documented as required
but never read by code. Three secrets, not four. Self-hosters
upgrading can delete the existing line.
- `toJson<T>()` helper consolidates seven Prisma JSON-cast sites.
- `db-compat.ts` gains a header docstring naming it the
schema-bootstrap path.
- Passkey response types adopted from `@simplewebauthn/server`;
`any` + eslint-disable pragmas drop out.
- Zero-TODO CI gate added at `.github/workflows/no-todo-markers.yml`.
Documentation + discoverability
- README rework: How-it-compares matrix, Apple Health + AI Coach
promoted to standalone Key-Features bullets, status block, latest
release + GHCR badges, OpenAPI pointer, three-secret Quick Start.
- openGraph + twitter cards now carry `images` and a
`summary_large_image` Twitter card.
- GitHub repo metadata: description tightened from 290 to 156
chars + keyword-front, `homepageUrl` flipped from a personal
tenant to the demo site, six generic / PII-adjacent topics
swapped for six high-intent ones.
- Five new user-facing docs: `docs/self-hosting/getting-started.md`,
`docs/self-hosting/reverse-proxy.md`,
`docs/integrations/apple-health.md`,
`docs/integrations/withings.md`,
`docs/integrations/ai-providers.md`.
- `docs/README.md` clarifies the docs tree as internal playbooks
vs the user-facing `docs.healthlog.dev` site.
