Security audit 2026-10-17, finding W1, stage 1. HandleDomainDMARC took any
address validate.Email takes; AllowedRecipients opened every stored address
on the hostname, not only the domain's hosted one; checkReportDomain
cross-checked the claimed domain only against a dmarc-reports+<tag> local
part. So a domain user of tenant A could store ops@<hostname> and from then
on anyone could mail a report claiming tenant B's domain to it, stored and
shown under B and counted toward B's 500; or store B's hosted address and
open B's mailbox without B choosing hosted. TestAllowedRecipients asserted
ops@<host> was allowed - a choice, now reversed.
Now: a custom address on the hostname is refused on the form ("choose
SelfPost hosted"); AllowedRecipients adds a domain's address only when it
is that domain's own hosted address; checkReportDomain requires a tag and
the claimed domain to equal it. The live registry (checked 2026-10-17)
holds two hosted addresses and no custom one on the hostname, so nothing
there changes.
Tests: TestCustomReportAddressOnTheHostnameIsRefused (typed, another
domain's hosted, the domain's own hosted typed as custom; an address
elsewhere still saves); TestAllowedRecipientsFollowTheDomainAddresses
inverted plus another domain's hosted address stored; untagged addresses
rejected in TestIngestMessageRejectsTagMismatch; the ingest tests deliver
to tagged addresses.
