Security

A second hardening pass on the Web UI, complementing the XSS / SSRF / CSRF fixes from v1.11.5. Recommended for everyone.

Webhook URL no longer logged in plaintext

The generic WEBHOOK_URL is now reported as "configured" on startup instead of printed in full. Prevents auth tokens (Ntfy, Gotify, Home Assistant) from leaking via docker logs or log aggregators.

Constant-time password comparison

Web UI Basic Auth now uses hmac.compare_digest instead of == for the password hash comparison, eliminating the theoretical timing side-channel.

settings.json permissions tightened to 0600

The persisted settings file (which contains webhook URLs and Telegram topic IDs) is now mode 0600 — owner-only read/write. Other containers sharing the data volume can no longer read it.

Cron schedule validation

Invalid cron expressions saved via the Web UI are now rejected with a clear error message instead of silently breaking the scheduler thread on the next tick. Examples that are now caught at save time:

  • every 5 minutes (text instead of cron)
  • */abc * * * * (non-numeric step)
  • 0 0-20/abc * * * (non-numeric step on a range)

Upgrade

docker pull amayer1983/docksentry:latest
docker compose up -d

No configuration changes required.
