Darkdragon14/VolumeVault v1.8.0

on GitHub

Summary

• Host-path backup sources and local destinations are now fail-closed when VOLUMEVAULT_HOST_PATH_ALLOWLIST is empty, and approved paths are re-checked at run time to block symlink swaps.
• Backup destinations that resolve to private, loopback, or link-local IPs are now blocked by default to reduce SSRF risk, unless their ranges are explicitly allowed in VOLUMEVAULT_SSRF_ALLOWED_IPS.
• API tokens now expire 60 days after creation by default, limiting the impact of leaked tokens.
• SSH/SFTP destinations can now pin the server host key, including support for trusting a fetched key or using the new POST /api/v1/destinations/host-key endpoint.
• Sign-in and password-reset requests are now rate-limited to 5 attempts per minute.
• Restore input validation is stricter, and restore extraction is now confined to the target volume to block unsafe keys and forged archives.

Upgrade Notes

• This release does not include database migrations.
• Existing installations that use host-path backup sources or local destinations must set VOLUMEVAULT_HOST_PATH_ALLOWLIST after upgrading if they relied on the previous open default. Run php artisan volumevault:host-path-allowlist:audit to generate the exact value to set.
• Installations that use a LAN NAS, self-hosted S3 or MinIO endpoint, or any backup destination that resolves to a private IP must add the required CIDR ranges to VOLUMEVAULT_SSRF_ALLOWED_IPS before destination tests, restore listing or download, and storage-quota alerts will work again.
• Existing API tokens older than 60 days stop working after the upgrade and must be recreated unless SANCTUM_TOKEN_EXPIRATION is changed or set to null.
• SSH/SFTP host key pinning is optional. Existing destinations continue to work without a pinned key, but pinning is recommended for better protection against man-in-the-middle attacks.
