Security

• DNS provider credentials encrypted at rest (GHSA-38cv-3c4g-w55w) — DNS-01 provider API keys/tokens (Cloudflare, Route53, …) were stored as plaintext JSON in dns_providers.credentials despite the column being labelled encrypted, so anyone with database read access (or a raw export of the field) obtained domain-control credentials. The field is now encrypted at rest via a model property (utils.encryption Fernet, mirroring the EAB HMAC key), read paths transparently decrypt (legacy plaintext rows still read), and migration 052 encrypts any pre-existing rows. Backup export/restore round-trips the decrypted value so cross-machine restore keeps working; regression tested (round-trip, at-rest ciphertext, constructor/restore path, migration idempotency). Reported externally by Ralph.
• Dev-dependency advisories — bumped transitive build/lint tooling out of vulnerable ranges via npm overrides: js-yaml → 4.3.0 (GHSA-h67p-54hq-rp68, quadratic-complexity DoS in merge-key handling; pulled in by eslint) and @babel/core → 7.29.7 (GHSA-4x5r-pxfx-6jf8, arbitrary file read via sourceMappingURL; pulled in by @vitejs/plugin-react). Both are build-time only and never shipped in the runtime bundle.

[2.187] - 2026-07-08

Added

• Configurable public vhost for ACME directory URLs — a dedicated public hostname/port (acme_public_vhost, acme_public_port in Settings → General) can now be advertised in the local ACME server and ACME proxy directory URLs (/acme/*, /acme/proxy/*), independent of the admin UI URL — the split admin/ACME reverse-proxy topology (e.g. admin.ucm.example.com vs acme.ucm.example.com behind one wildcard certificate). JWS verification accepts both the advertised public origin and the inbound URL; without a configured vhost, behavior is unchanged (request host). Wildcard hostnames are rejected for the vhost value (TLS SAN concept, not an advertised URL), and an optional acme_public_tls_cert_id records which managed certificate to deploy on the ACME vhost (metadata only). Settings APIs expose acme_public_base_url / acme_proxy_public_base_url and the UI directory URLs follow the configured origin (#173, thanks @fredlubrano).

Changed

• SQLAlchemy 2.0 Session.get — all 353 Model.query.get() / query.get_or_404() call sites migrated to db.session.get() / db.get_or_404(), eliminating ~4500 LegacyAPIWarning per test run ahead of a future SQLAlchemy major bump.

Security

• CSR extension policy on certificate issuance — the shared CSR signer copied every requested extension into the issued certificate verbatim, so a crafted CSR carrying BasicConstraints CA:true (and keyCertSign) submitted through EST, SCEP or ACME enrollment could obtain a working subordinate CA — a trust escalation from an enrollment endpoint. Leaf certificate types now force BasicConstraints(ca=False) and strip the CA-only key-usage bits; only the explicit intermediate-CA signing flow may assert CA powers. Regression tested.
• SCEP unauthenticated auto-enrollment when no challenge is set — per RFC 8894 §2.4 an omitted challengePassword allows unauthenticated authorisation, so with auto-approve enabled and no challenge configured any anonymous client on the public SCEP endpoint received a CA-signed certificate. Initial PKCSReq auto-issuance is now refused unless a challenge is configured (manual-approval mode and renewals are unaffected); UCM_SCEP_ALLOW_NO_CHALLENGE=1 opts back in for isolated deployments.
• Key-strength floor on EST and SCEP enrollment — both protocols now reject CSRs whose public key is below policy (RSA < 2048, non-NIST EC curves) instead of signing weak/exotic keys, matching the UI/API issuance floor (EST RFC 7030 §3.7 and SCEP defer key policy to the local CA).
• EST request-body cap bypass via chunked encoding — the body-size limit only inspected Content-Length, so a Transfer-Encoding: chunked request could stream an unbounded body into memory. The body is now read with a hard cap on the request stream regardless of framing.

Fixed

• Broken settings restore endpoint — POST /api/v2/settings/backup/restore passed a temp-file path where the service expects raw bytes, so it returned 500 on every call and left the uploaded (encrypted) backup in /tmp on each attempt. It now reads the upload as size-capped bytes in memory (no temp file) and restores correctly.
• mTLS certificate import always failed — POST /api/v2/mtls/enroll-import crashed on every valid PEM (undefined variable, then a str stored into the binary cert_pem column). The endpoint now imports and enrolls correctly; covered by a regression test.
• Public ACME vhost hardening (post-#173 review) — the local ACME server now accepts the JWS url on both the advertised public origin and the inbound request origin (the tolerance moved into verify_jws itself, shared with the proxy, so in-flight orders survive an acme_public_vhost change on /acme/* too); CAA enforcement and caaIdentities follow the configured public hostname instead of the inbound Host; the vhost is validated as a real FQDN (rejects .., leading/trailing hyphens, single labels); non-string vhost values and out-of-band garbage port rows return 400/defaults instead of 500; the public origin is memoized per request (one combined SystemConfig read instead of up to 10 per proxy request); the TLS certificate is picked from a dropdown of key-bearing certificates instead of a raw database id, and clearing it removes the config row; the CA Accounts panel shows the same public directory URLs as the other tabs.
