mixandClaude Opus 5.5 a990e7cc23 delivery-log-storage: findings of the technical and security reviews
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
Neither review (read-only agents, Opus and Fable, over ae06d8b..815236a) has
a Critical or High finding. What they found and what was done:

- A stranger on port 25 could grow the table: every queue-id line of inbound
  mail was stored and pruned an hour or more later, his own message-id among
  them. The tailer now leaves out the lines of a queue id that
  postfix/inbound/smtpd opened, until qmgr removes the message or another
  listener opens one under the id; 4096 such ids are remembered.
- A commit, so a disk sync, per stored line on the connection the journal
  milter shares, and a backlog written line by line. Lines are now written in
  one transaction per pass over the log, 500 at most, before the read offset
  is saved (InsertSendLogLines; follow() calls the keeper's flush).
- The prune asked the send log once per line and ran hourly. It asks once per
  queue id and runs at start and with the six-hourly sweep; with port-25 mail
  left out there is little without a row to wait for.
- The 4096-byte cut could split a character; it keeps characters whole.
- security.md did not say that a backup now carries these lines, and the plan
  said the time window excludes a reused queue id where it only limits the
  chance to the row's queue lifetime. Both are corrected; the collision is
  recorded as an accepted risk with its trigger.
- Tests that did not prove their comments: the prune is now tested with the
  sweep, a rejected row next to the prune, batching and the change from
  catching up to following, port-25 mail left out and its id reused.

Left as found and written down in the plan: lines the tailer never reads
(a file rotated away while the panel was down), and a message in the queue
across the upgrade, which shows only its later lines.

On the test server, for this tree: go vet clean, go test ./... 22 packages
ok, make e2e ok.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 d398f488e2 inbound-antispam-panel: the filter signs what it judged
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
Closes what the security review left as an accepted risk: with the
spam filter down - it is attached fail-open - nothing removes verdict
headers a sender wrote himself, and the inbound journal recorded his
verdict as the filter's. The owner asked whether rspamd could add a
header that proves the others are ours (2026-10-12) and agreed to a
signature: a fixed mark could be written by a sender as easily as the
verdict.

  - inbound.FilterKey: a key of 32 random bytes, 64 hex characters, in
    /data/antispam/filter.key, made on the first start with the relay
    on. 0644 like the list files beside it: the filter is another user
    in another container.
  - deploy/antispam/rspamd/milter_headers.conf: a custom routine reads
    the key through the directory the sidecar already mounts and adds
    X-SelfPost-Filter, the HMAC-SHA256 of the message's queue id, hex;
    a header of that name from the sender is removed.
  - internal/milter/inbound.go: the verdict headers are kept as they
    are read, and at end-of-message - when the queue id is known - they
    count only if the signature fits (FilterSignature, hmac.Equal). No
    key, no queue id, no signature or a wrong one: the row is that of
    mail nobody judged (accept, selfpost, no detail).

The signature goes on to the upstream with the mail and is of no use
there: it fits one queue id.

Tried in a throwaway rspamd 3.11 container on the test server before
the Go side was written: the routine loads, signs
(2aa1ca6d... for key 0123...cdef and queue id 4A1B2C3D5E, the value
python's hmac gives and TestFilterSignatureIsWhatTheFilterWrites
pins), removes a sender's header of the same name, and adds nothing
without a queue id.

Tests: signed, unsigned, made-up, another message's, another key's,
the sender's followed by the real one, the next message on the
connection, no queue id; the key made once, read after, replaced when
damaged, left alone by the lists. e2e: filter.key is there, 644, 65
bytes.

docs/security.md: the accepted risk is replaced by a narrower one (the
key is readable on the host); Mail path describes the signature.

Checked on the test server, uncommitted tree: go vet ./... ok,
go test ./... ok (22 packages), make e2e ok.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 c731a98a0f inbound-antispam-panel: findings of the technical and security reviews
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
Steps 11 and 12 of docs/plans/inbound-antispam-panel.md: 12/12. Two
read-only reviews of d65d632..HEAD by different models (Opus,
technical; Fable, security), each given the code and questions, not
conclusions. Nothing Critical or High in the feature; the High the
technical review found outside it is the commit before this one.

Log tailer (internal/logtail/inbound.go):
  - the reply of a refusal ends at the first "; from=<", Postfix's own,
    and the HELO name after it is whatever is left. Taking the longest
    reply let a HELO name that spelt "; from=<..> to=<..> proto=.."
    supply the row's sender, recipient and reply - and so make a
    refusal read as the deny list's;
  - an address with a quote, a bracket or a space is not kept: a quoted
    sender could otherwise supply the recipient;
  - the journal is cut to its row cap every 500 rows written, not only
    every six hours;
  - a queue id is forgotten when the message is queued or the id is
    opened by another listener, and a stale place in the queue of
    arrivals no longer drops a live id;
  - milter-hold lines are not read: the held message reaches the
    journal milter, which writes its row - it was written twice.
Lists (internal/inbound/lists.go): a change of the table and the
rewrite of the files are one step under a mutex; a failed rewrite puts
a removed entry back and rewrites after taking a new one out.
Store: the row cap removes the oldest by time, as the page orders them.
Page: on a sheet a refusal's text is a Reply whatever it starts with.

Help and the guide say that an allow entry for a sender address trusts
an address anyone can claim (design commit before this one).

docs/security.md: the two reviews; the roles table gains Inbound > Log
and Filter lists; Mail path describes the milters, the tailer and the
lists; four accepted risks - the filter's verdict while it is down, an
allow entry by sender address, the list files' mode, log rows held by
domain name. The plan's stale lines (size and rate refusals, who reads
the journal) are corrected.

Left as found, told to the owner: the journal's rows after an unclean
stop may be written twice (the tailer saves its place every five
seconds); a "Deny sender" link is offered for an address the form then
refuses; 1.2.3.4 and 1.2.3.4/32 are two entries.

Checked on the test server, uncommitted tree: go vet ./... ok,
go test ./... ok (22 packages), make e2e ok.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 4dd46ea355 dmarc: a report is bounded, kept per domain, and ingested one at a time
Security review of the DMARC report path (Fable, 2026-10-11), which ran
for the first time in 2.0.0. No Critical or High finding. Fixed:

- Medium: a report was bounded only as 8 MiB of XML - some 160 000
  records or one name of megabytes, all of it rows and table cells. At
  most 5 000 records (more is ErrRejected, dropped), text fields cut to
  255 bytes on a character boundary, a record's count capped.
- Medium: the cap of 500 reports was for the whole server, so a stranger
  filing under one domain's address evicted every other domain's
  reports. PruneDMARCReports counts per domain.
- Low: the pipe service ran up to default_process_limit (100) commands
  at once against the panel's database; maxproc is 1.
- Low: the reason logged for a dropped message carried the sender's
  bytes (header line, zip entry name) as they came; cut to 200 bytes and
  reduced to printable ASCII, zip entry names quoted.
- Low: SELFPOST_DATA_DIR / SELFPOST_DB_PATH with whitespace or "$" would
  reach the command through export_environment as another path; refused
  at start when DMARC ingest is on.

Left as they are, told to the owner: the parse-failure count is a
lifetime figure shown under "This week"; a report larger than the
command reads is dropped as unreadable; nested multipart is not searched.

The hub's Retention line follows the design commit before this one.
security.md: the review, and the accepted-risk entry says what a
stranger can and cannot do now. The roadmap no longer calls the review
pending.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 ed3cb4aaac docs: the panel as it is in 2.0
Stage 3, step 3. Written by Sonnet from the code and the plan, checked
by Opus.

  - guide.md: a section on the panel - menu, paths, the roles global and
    domain with outbound and inbound assigned separately -, Overview and
    Health, Queue and System log, Account and Server > Settings, the
    domain page / Domain settings / application form, Help as a page of
    topics. The DMARC report address is one of three choices set in
    Domain settings. The Spam filter box, the two INBOUND_ANTISPAM_*
    variables the panel reads, and the filter's socket on Health.
    Sessions; backup and export encrypted unless the box is unticked;
    1.x data is not restored into 2.0.
  - architecture.md: Panel HTTP surface rewritten from web.go (routes,
    the /server/ guard, per-object checks, <page>/fragment, one layout,
    typed page data, the kit and its guards, CSP and htmx); Persistence
    gains the database - one baseline, a 1.x file refused, the tables as
    they are.
  - security.md: roles and what each reaches, as built; sessions by user
    id and what ends them; state-changing requests; errors shown to
    users; the 2.0 review; two accepted risks from it - a delegated
    inbound upstream may be any host and port, and Account's profile is
    saved without the password.
  - CHANGELOG: Removed opens with "2.0 starts from an empty data
    directory"; entries that describe the user-default report address
    say they were replaced before release; the filter's socket.
  - roadmap.md: two review follow-up rows struck as retired by the
    redesign (.pair / .split, the two back links); password-reset notes
    that changing the account e-mail must then ask for the password.
    Progress 25/27.
  - development.md: the component kit and its guards; README and
    product.md: wording.

Left as they are
  - The third follow-up row the plan expected to strike - initShowWhen
    is not re-run after an htmx swap - still holds: no polled fragment
    carries such a control today, so nothing breaks, but the redesign did
    not retire it.
  - guide.md embeds no screenshots, so none needed retaking.
  - README and guide still name image 1.9.5 - the version cut.
  - plans/preflight.md and plans/inbound-antispam-panel.md use pre-2.0
    paths; roadmap's template-data-typing is largely done by the
    redesign.

  go test -count=1 ./cmd/panel (env-doc tables): ok
