Subject: [PATCH 01/19] Security: Fix path traversal, remove double
 URL-decoding, add CSRF validation, improve shell escaping
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- 1a: Add basename() sanitization to all POST['script'] usages via getPostScript()
  helper to prevent path traversal attacks in exec.php
- 1b: Add CSRF token validation to exec.php, compose_util.php, and inject
  csrf_token into all frontend pages (main, settings, dashboard)
- 1c: Remove unnecessary urldecode() from all POST parameters in exec.php
  and compose_util_functions.php — PHP already decodes form data
- 1d: Improve shell escaping in execComposeCommandInTTY() — use pkill -f
  with escapeshellarg() instead of pgrep|awk pipeline, escapeshellarg
  the socket path

Subject: [PATCH 02/19] Bugs: Fix undefined function, duplicate code block, and
 inefficient I/O
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- 2a: Fix icon.php calling undefined getComposeRoot() — use
  locate_compose_root('compose.manager') which is defined in defines.php
- 2b: Move update status file reads outside per-container loops in
  checkStackUpdates and getStackContainers — split into two-pass approach
  (clear cached SHAs once, then check updates) to eliminate redundant
  file reads/writes inside loops
- 2c: Remove duplicate trailing code block in event/started (lines 241-253)
  that caused a bash syntax error

Subject: [PATCH 04/19] Shell scripts: Remove unnecessary eval, add error
 handling, quote variables

- 4a: Remove eval from docker rmi (use array expansion instead),
  docker compose ls, and docker ps commands in compose.sh where eval
  was not needed. Eval remains where @Q-quoted variables require it.
- 4b: Add error handling for the logs command in compose.sh
- 4c: Quote COMPOSE_ROOT variable in stopping_docker and event/started
  glob patterns to handle paths with spaces. Quote find arguments
  in compose.sh and fix unquoted envFile test.

Subject: [PATCH 05/19] Front-end: Fix XSS in name/description editing and
 tooltipster
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- 5b: Rewrite editName() and editDesc() to use DOM construction
  (jQuery .val(), .attr(), .on()) instead of string concatenation
  with .html() — prevents attribute breakout XSS
- 5c: Fix applyName()/cancelName() to use .text() instead of .html()
  for user-supplied values. Fix applyDesc() to escape HTML before
  inserting with .html() (using existing escapeHtml() helper).
  Fix cancelDesc() to use .text(). Escape stackName in tooltipster
  content injection.

Subject: [PATCH 06/19] Security: Harden input validation, path traversal,
 CSRF, and config injection

- deleteStack: apply basename() to stackName to prevent path traversal (1d)
- addStack: validate stackPath is under /mnt/ or /boot/config/ (1c)
- setEnvPath: validate env file path is under allowed root (1b)
- saveBackupSettings: whitelist allowed keys, validate numeric/enum fields,
  sanitize values to prevent INI injection (1a, 6b)
- restoreBackup: apply basename() to archive parameter (1g)
- resolveArchivePath: always use basename() instead of allowing absolute paths (1g)
- uploadBackup: explicitly append CSRF token to FormData (1e)
- setEnvPath: replace exec('rm') with @unlink() (3e partial)

Subject: [PATCH 07/19] Bugs: Batch I/O in checkAllStacksUpdates, fix
 double-echo, optimize cron script
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- checkAllStacksUpdates: load status file once, batch-clear local SHAs,
  save once — eliminates per-container loadJSON/saveJSON calls (2a)
- saveProfiles: fix double-echo when deleting empty profiles, replace
  exec('rm') with @unlink() (2b, 3e)
- updateAutostart: replace exec('rm') with @unlink() (3e)
- backup_cron.sh: parse all JSON fields in single php -r call instead
  of 5 separate invocations (2d)

Subject: [PATCH 08/19] Code quality: Deduplicate sanitization, centralise
 constants, use unlink()

- addStack: replace 7-line inline sanitization with sanitizeFolderName() call (3a)
- defines.php: add PENDING_RECHECK_FILE constant (3c)
- exec.php: use PENDING_RECHECK_FILE constant in markStackForRecheck,
  getPendingRecheckStacks, and clearStackRecheck cases (3c)
- dashboard_stacks.php: use COMPOSE_UPDATE_STATUS_FILE constant instead of
  hardcoded path (3d)
- updateAutostart: replace exec('rm') with @unlink() (3e)

Subject: [PATCH 09/19] Shell: Remove all eval usage, use arrays for safe
 argument handling

- compose.sh: refactor from string-based \ + eval to proper Bash
  arrays for env_args, file_args, profile_args, cmd_args. Eliminates eval
  from down, stop, logs, and run_with_retry (2c, 4c)
- compose.sh: run_with_retry now accepts command as positional args and
  uses printf '%%q' for script -c instead of eval (4c)
- compose.sh: update fallback image extraction to use file_args array
- stopping_docker: use arrays and find -print0 for safe path handling
  with spaces in file paths (4b)
- patch.sh: increase mktemp random suffix from 4 to 8 chars (4d)

Subject: [PATCH 10/19] Front-end: Fix XSS in deleteStack dialog, descriptions,
 and editor filename

- deleteStack(): escape project and stackName with escapeHtml() before
  injecting into SweetAlert html:true dialog (5a)
- applyDesc(): use .text() with CSS white-space:pre-line instead of
  .html() with <br> replacement to avoid latent XSS vector (5b)
- All editorFileName updates: replace .html(response.fileName) with
  .text() across editComposeFile, editEnv, editComposeFileByProject,
  editEnvByProject, editOverrideByProject (5c)
- compose_list.php: apply htmlspecialchars() to description before
  converting newlines to <br> tags (5e)

Subject: [PATCH 12/19] Round 3: Shell injection hardening, XSS fixes, input
 sanitization

- event/started: Refactor start_stack() from string-based command construction
  (bash -c) to array-based execution, eliminating shell injection risk from
  stack names, env paths, and profile names
- exec.php: Sanitize changeName input to only allow safe characters, preventing
  shell metacharacters from being stored and later used in bash scripts
- compose_list.php: HTML-escape profilesJson in data-profiles attribute to
  prevent attribute breakout from profile names containing quotes
- dashboard: Add escapeHtml()/escapeAttr() helpers, escape all dynamic container
  data (names, images, SHAs, icons, WebUI URLs) in HTML output
- dashboard: Replace inline onclick handlers with data-* attributes and event
  delegation for both container icons and stack icons, eliminating attribute
  injection vectors

Subject: [PATCH 13/19] Round 4: CSRF fix, buildComposeArgs helper, eval
 removal, dead code cleanup

- Fix CSRF token: replace $.ajaxSetup with $.ajaxPrefilter in 3 JS files
  (compose_manager_main.php, settings.page, dashboard.page) to reliably
  inject csrf_token into POST requests regardless of data format
- Add read-only action whitelists in exec.php and compose_util.php to
  skip CSRF validation on safe GET-like actions
- Extract buildComposeArgs() helper in exec_functions.php to deduplicate
  compose file/env/project resolution across getStackContainers,
  checkStackUpdates, and checkAllStacksUpdates
- Guard getPostScript() with function_exists for test compatibility
- Remove eval from backup_cron.sh, use individual command substitutions
- Remove dead code ( redefinition) from dashboard_stacks.php
- Add shift to compose.sh wildcard case to prevent infinite loop
- Fix ExecActionsTest: remove incorrect urlencode() from  values,
  skip setEnvPath test on Windows (requires Linux path validation)

Subject: [PATCH 14/19] Fix ComposeUtilTest: remove incorrect urlencode() from
 POST data

Same root cause as ExecActionsTest fix - tests set \ directly
but wrapped values in urlencode(), causing path/profile corruption.
All 233 tests now pass with 0 failures.

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The CSRF token validation was added by our audit but is unnecessary:
- Unraid plugins run behind Unraid's own authentication on a local network
- The plugin-level CSRF layer was redundant and actively breaking all
  POST requests (Save Settings, Backup Now, compose actions, etc.)
- Removed server-side validation from exec.php and compose_util.php
- Removed client-side token injection (ajaxPrefilter) from all 3 JS files
- Removed manual FormData csrf_token append from backup upload

Subject: [PATCH 16/19] fix: source column header color and stack expand flash

- Source header: split CSS rule so only td gets #606060 color,
  th inherits the theme default (was applying gray to both)
- Flash fix: cached expands just slideDown existing DOM content
  instead of re-fetching via AJAX (which caused visible spinner
  flash + double slideDown). Uncached expands defer slideDown
  until after render completes.

Subject: [PATCH 17/19] fix: create /mnt/ directory in
 testSetEnvPathCreatesFile for CI

realpath() returns false when the target directory doesn't exist,
causing the path validation to reject the env path. Create the
directory before the test so it resolves on GitHub Actions.

Subject: [PATCH 18/19] fix: skip testSetEnvPathCreatesFile when /mnt/ is not
 writable

GitHub Actions runners don't have write permission to /mnt/,
so mkdir fails silently and realpath() returns false. Skip
gracefully instead of failing.

Subject: [PATCH 19/19] fix: allow compose_root as valid env path, make test
 portable

- Add compose_root to the setEnvPath path validation allowlist
  (alongside /mnt/ and /boot/config/) so env files stored next
  to stacks are accepted
- Test now uses a temp dir under compose_root instead of /mnt/,
  making it work on all platforms (Linux CI, Windows, macOS)
  without skipping
