- requirements: cryptography >=46.0.7 (was pinned <46, which excluded the fix for
the CVEs pip-audit flagged in our Fernet/crypto library). pip-audit now clean.
- Dockerfile: upgrade pip before installing deps (patches installer-level CVEs).
- auth: /auth/upgrade now defaults to the least-privileged read scope; only an
explicit access=write requests the write scope.
Base login now requests only openid/email/profile (non-sensitive), so a new user
gets a clean Google consent with no "unverified app" warning and no 7-day refresh
token expiry. YouTube read (youtube.readonly) and write (youtube) are granted later
by the onboarding wizard via a parameterized /auth/upgrade?access=read|write.
Security fixes folded in from the baseline audit:
- config: refuse to boot in production (https OAUTH_REDIRECT_URL) with the
placeholder/short SECRET_KEY or a missing TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY, closing a
session-forgery / admin-impersonation hole.
- main: mark the session cookie Secure when served over HTTPS.
- me: expose can_read; sync/subscriptions returns a friendly 403 (not a 500)
until YouTube read access is granted.
Move the access whitelist from the ALLOWED_EMAILS env var into a DB Invite table
(env kept as bootstrap fallback), and add a self-service request + admin approval
flow with fail-soft email.
- models: Invite(email, status pending|approved|denied, requested_at, decided_*)
- migration 0008: invites table; seed env ALLOWED_EMAILS u ADMIN_EMAILS as approved
- auth: is_allowed() (DB-first, env fallback); a denied Google login records a pending
request and bounces to /?access=requested instead of a raw 403; public POST
/auth/request-access; upsert is idempotent so repeats don't re-spam admins
- routes/admin.py (admin-only): list/approve/deny invites + manual add
- email.py: smtplib + Gmail App Password, fail-soft (skips if SMTP unset)
- /api/me exposes pending_invites; config + .env.example gain SMTP_*
- UI: Login 'Request access' form + access=requested/denied handling; Settings ->
Access requests (approve/deny + add); admin nudge toast on pending requests
Verified locally: request-access creates a pending invite and emails the admin;
seed approved npeter83; guinea-pig yt.trash2023 denied until approved.
- uvicorn --log-config (log_config.json): timestamped formatters for uvicorn
access/error and the app's own "subfeed" loggers (ms precision)
- Log key activity: startup/shutdown, login/denied, token refresh, YouTube API
errors, subscription imports, sync pause/resume
- Background sync jobs no longer swallow errors silently — failures in RSS poll,
backfill, enrichment, autotag and resync are logged with tracebacks
- Shorts: confirm via youtube.com/shorts/<id> probe (SOCS cookie bypasses the
consent redirect) instead of a 60s heuristic; concurrent probing, shorts_probed
flag, scheduled refinement (migration 0005)
- Search: match title + channel name only (descriptions caused noisy results)
- Faceted tag filtering: AND across categories (language AND topic narrows),
OR within a category; any/all toggle applies to topics
- Language detection: majority vote over individual titles (fixes misdetections
like multipoleguy -> English; drops bogus Polish/Romanian)
- Login: drop forced consent so returning sign-in is quick (select_account)
- Feed cards: clickable channel name (opens channel), persistent saved badge,
undo toast on hide, Hidden view to restore; tag chips show counts in tooltip
- docker-compose with Postgres 16 + slim Python API image
- FastAPI app with session middleware, health endpoint, static login page
- Google OAuth (Authlib) with email invite-list whitelist; admin role support
- User + OAuthToken models; refresh tokens encrypted at rest (Fernet)
- Alembic migrations, run automatically on container startup
- Postgres backup/restore scripts for portability between machines
