# Security Hardening Summary
|
|
|
|
## Critical Vulnerabilities Fixed
|
|
|
|
### 1. ✅ Container Security
|
|
**Issue**: Container running as root user
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Created non-root user `appuser` in Dockerfile
|
|
- Container now runs with limited privileges
|
|
- Added `no-new-privileges:true` security option
|
|
|
|
### 2. ✅ Host Header Injection
|
|
**Issue**: Unvalidated `request.host` usage
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Added whitelist of allowed hosts
|
|
- Implemented `@validate_host` decorator
|
|
- All routes now validate Host header before processing
|
|
|
|
### 3. ✅ Input Sanitization
|
|
**Issue**: Unvalidated domain input in templates
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Added `sanitize_domain()` function with regex validation
|
|
- Domain length and format validation
|
|
- Prevents injection attacks via domain parameter
|
|
|
|
### 4. ✅ Network Security
|
|
**Issue**: Binding to all interfaces (0.0.0.0)
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Application now binds to localhost only (127.0.0.1:8080)
|
|
- External access through Traefik reverse proxy only
|
|
- Updated all Traefik labels to use port 8080
|
|
|
|
### 5. ✅ Security Headers
|
|
**Issue**: Missing security headers
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Added comprehensive security headers middleware
|
|
- X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
|
|
- X-Frame-Options: DENY
|
|
- X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
|
|
- Content-Security-Policy
|
|
- Referrer-Policy
|
|
|
|
### 6. ✅ Rate Limiting
|
|
**Issue**: No rate limiting or request validation
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Implemented rate limiting per IP address
|
|
- Different limits for different endpoints:
|
|
- Main page: 50 requests/hour
|
|
- Health check: 10 requests/minute
|
|
- Config endpoints: 20 requests/hour
|
|
- Request size validation (512B-2KB depending on endpoint)
|
|
|
|
### 7. ✅ Container Hardening
|
|
**Issue**: Overprivileged container
|
|
**Fix**:
|
|
- Read-only filesystem with tmpfs for /tmp
|
|
- Resource limits (256MB RAM, 0.5 CPU)
|
|
- Security options preventing privilege escalation
|
|
|
|
## Security Features Added
|
|
|
|
### Input Validation
|
|
- Host header validation against whitelist
|
|
- Domain sanitization with regex patterns
|
|
- Request size limits per endpoint
|
|
- Content-Type validation
|
|
|
|
### Rate Limiting
|
|
- Per-IP rate limiting with sliding window
|
|
- Configurable limits per endpoint type
|
|
- Automatic cleanup of old request records
|
|
|
|
### Network Security
|
|
- Localhost-only binding
|
|
- Reverse proxy required for external access
|
|
- Updated health checks for new port
|
|
|
|
### Container Security
|
|
- Non-root user execution
|
|
- Read-only filesystem
|
|
- Resource constraints
|
|
- No new privileges policy
|
|
|
|
## Deployment Notes
|
|
|
|
1. **Rebuild the Docker image** after these changes
|
|
2. **Update docker-compose.yml** with the new configuration
|
|
3. **Test all endpoints** to ensure functionality
|
|
4. **Monitor logs** for any security-related errors
|
|
5. **Consider adding Redis** for production rate limiting
|
|
|
|
## Monitoring Recommendations
|
|
|
|
- Monitor for 403 (Forbidden host) responses
|
|
- Watch for 429 (Rate limit exceeded) responses
|
|
- Log any invalid domain attempts
|
|
- Monitor resource usage within limits
|
|
|
|
## Additional Security Considerations
|
|
|
|
For production deployment, consider:
|
|
- Using Redis for distributed rate limiting
|
|
- Implementing proper logging and monitoring
|
|
- Adding WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules
|
|
- Regular security audits and dependency updates
|
|
- Implementing request signing for sensitive endpoints
