Critical Fix: Docker Authentication Bug

This hotfix release addresses a critical issue where Docker users were unable to login after setting up security through the Quick Security Setup wizard.

Bug Fix

  • Docker Quick Security Setup: Fixed critical issue where credentials weren't persisted to storage in Docker containers, preventing login after container restart (fixes #314)

Technical Details

The Quick Security Setup wizard was not properly saving hashed credentials to the persistent /etc/pulse/.env file in Docker environments. This caused authentication to fail after container restart, even with correct credentials.

Who is Affected

  • Docker users who used the Quick Security Setup wizard in v4.3.1
  • LXC/systemd deployments are NOT affected

Workaround for v4.3.1 Users

If you're stuck on v4.3.1 and can't login:

# Reset by removing the container and volume, then recreate:
docker stop pulse
docker rm pulse
docker volume rm pulse_data  # WARNING: This removes all your Pulse data
docker run -d --name pulse -p 7655:7655 -v pulse_data:/etc/pulse rcourtman/pulse:v4.3.2

Installation

Docker (Recommended)

docker pull rcourtman/pulse:v4.3.2
