Transfer the C completed-response cache lesson into Rails, keeping authentication, room checks and cookies per request. A persistent read-only SQLite observer detects local and foreign commits and rejects racing admission. Whole-page misses render fresh to avoid stale nested fragments; message ETags reflect token-neutral presentation.
* Derive message DOM ids from the server id, not client_message_id
A message's DOM id was derived from the browser-chosen client_message_id
via a Message#to_key override, so dom_id(message) was
"message_<client_message_id>". Turbo's append de-dups by DOM id, so a room
member who posted a message reusing a victim's client_message_id displaced
the victim's message element in every connected member's live view; editing
the attacker's own message then broadcast onto the victim's presentation id.
Drop the to_key override so every message DOM id and broadcast target derives
from the record's primary key. Two distinct records can no longer share a DOM
id regardless of stored client_message_id, so the collision is impossible with
no data migration and no uniqueness constraint. to_param and the fragment
cache key already used the primary key, so message URLs and per-message cache
entries are unchanged.
The composer's optimistic pending message still uses client_message_id as its
placeholder DOM id, which no longer matches the server broadcast's PK-based id.
Reconcile instead by rendering data-client-message-id on the real message and
having the messages controller drop the matching pending placeholder on
connect. Only client-side placeholders (data-pending-message) are removed, so a
message another member posts reusing the same client_message_id can never
displace a real one through the reconciliation path either.
Also point the boost broadcast target at the PK-based dom_id(message, :boosts)
to match the rebuilt container id.
GHSA-3v99-4vxh-xg84
* Bust cached message fragments rendered with client_message_id DOM ids
The message fragment cache keys on the record and the template digest, and
removing the to_key override changes neither. Fragments cached by an earlier
release would keep their message_<client_message_id> ids, so edit, delete and
boost broadcasts, which now target primary-key ids, would miss those messages
in other members' live views until the cache entry expired.
* Locate messages by record id in the client_message_id collision tests
Assert on data-message-id rather than the new primary-key DOM ids, so the tests
describe the behavior instead of the fix and fail on the vulnerable code for the
real reason. Edit the attacker's message to new text and wait for it to arrive,
so the edit path is exercised rather than passing vacuously. Add a request test
that two messages sharing a client_message_id render as distinct elements.

The deadline in Opengraph::Fetch started after the lookup of the pasted
host, and an unfurl looks up more hosts outside any fetch: the canonical
URL's, and the image's, once to check its content type and again to
validate it. Each of those waits as long as the resolver takes to give
up. Move the deadline up to UnfurlLinksController, around everything the
link leads to; Opengraph::Fetch keeps its per-operation timeouts and
makes no retries.

Room#destroy destroyed every message inside the room's own
transaction, which holds SQLite's write lock until the last one: on a
room with many messages, every other write in the app waited and
failed. The request now takes the room away from its members and
leaves the rest to Room::DestroyJob, which destroys the messages one
at a time, each in its own short transaction, and then the room.
An open room is closed in the request, so that someone who joins the
account before the job ends isn't given it.

Administrators see banned users in the account settings, but only the
first page counted them: the next pages listed active users alone. A
banned member before the page boundary shifted the offset, so one active
member was never listed. Both pages now share User.visible_to.

Since administrators were grouped apart from members (b52c318), the account
settings page loads every user to split them and renders all of them. The
lazy next page still starts at the 501st user, so on an account with more
than 500 people, scrolling down lists those users a second time.
Load administrators on their own and page only members, both on the settings
page and on the pages that follow it.

Directs merge Room.directs and order by recency. Shared rooms reuse
with_ordered_room and without_direct_rooms, with the STI filter coming
from Room.without_directs so the join alias stays rooms.

Search showed the last 100 matches by created_at, so SQLite collected every
message containing the words and sorted them before keeping a page. A common
word in a large account meant sorting most of its history on every search.
Ordering by the full-text index's rowid, which is the message id, lets SQLite
walk the index from the newest match and stop once the page is full.

* Preload only uncached messages and reduce rendering overhead
* Keep benchmark summaries without raw JSON results
* Use Ruby benchmark drivers and keep generated results out of the repo
Action Cable authorizes a Connection once at the WebSocket handshake and
never re-checks it. Destroying the session record refuses future handshakes
and HTTP requests bearing the cookie, but a socket opened before sign out
keeps its handshake-time current_user and keeps authorizing new
subscriptions and delivering frames as the signed-out user.
Reset the user's remote connections when the session is terminated. Clients
tear down and reconnect: the signed-out device carries a destroyed session
and cleared cookie and is rejected at the fresh handshake, while the user's
other devices with still-valid sessions reconnect and stay live. This reuses
the existing reset_remote_connections primitive already used on membership
removal, for the same reason.
Run the disconnect last and best-effort, after the session record and cookie
are already gone, so sign out completes even when the realtime service is
unreachable.
Active Storage mounts its direct-upload write endpoints -- POST
/rails/active_storage/direct_uploads and the disk-service PUT at
/rails/active_storage/disk/:token -- on framework controllers that inherit
from ActiveStorage::BaseController, so they never pass through
ApplicationController's require_authentication. Anyone who can read the
public login page can lift a CSRF token and Rails session cookie, POST to
the metadata endpoint, and receive a signed disk PUT URL without holding a
Campfire session_token.
That is enough to allocate ActiveStorage::Blob rows and persist bytes to
disk anonymously. The blobs stay unattached (no message can be created
without an account) and nothing purges them, so an unauthenticated caller
can grow storage without bound. Because the recommended self-host layout
co-locates uploaded files and the SQLite database on one /rails/storage
volume, that growth eventually makes database writes fail -- blocking login
and messaging until an administrator frees space and purges the blobs.
Campfire uploads attachments through MessagesController as a normal
multipart POST and does not use direct uploads at all, so these endpoints
have no legitimate anonymous caller. Require a valid Campfire session
before the metadata endpoint allocates a blob or the disk endpoint accepts
an upload; both return 401 to anonymous callers. Serving (disk#show,
representations, blob redirects) is unchanged.
* Guard push-subscription endpoints against SSRF
Web push delivery POSTed to the endpoint URL a user supplied when
registering a subscription, with no scheme, host, or private-network
check -- unlike the OpenGraph unfurl path, which already routes through
the shared SSRF address policy (surfguard). Any authenticated user could
register a subscription whose endpoint pointed at an internal address and
have the server fetch it on every chat message: blind SSRF for internal
recon and reachability probing, plus a thread-pool DoS on the delivery
pool.
Validate the endpoint when the subscription is saved: it must be HTTPS,
its host must belong to a known browser push service (allowlist), and it
must resolve to a public IP. On every delivery, re-resolve the host and
pin the connection to that public IP so a later DNS rebind can't redirect
the request to an internal address. If no public IP resolves at delivery
time -- a rebind, or a subscription that predates this validation --
delivery is skipped rather than falling back to re-resolving the raw
host.
Adds model, controller, and delivery-pinning tests, plus a DNS stub
helper for deterministic resolution in tests.
* Route push endpoint guarding through RestrictedHTTP::PrivateNetworkGuard
The endpoint SSRF check already delegated its private-network classification
to surfguard, but called Surfguard.resolve_public_ips directly rather than
through RestrictedHTTP::PrivateNetworkGuard -- the hostname-in, address-out
shim #241 established as the app's single guarded-outbound entry point and
that Opengraph::Fetch resolves through. Route push resolution through the same
guard so once-campfire keeps one place that resolves and classifies outbound
addresses. Behavior is unchanged: the guard raises Violation when a permitted
host resolves only to blocked addresses (previously an empty list -> nil) and
propagates Surfguard::Unresolvable for a host that resolves to nothing; both
map to a nil endpoint IP, which fails validation and skips delivery. The
allowlist, HTTPS/443 constraints, and per-delivery IP pinning are unchanged.
* Address push-SSRF review: defer DNS off enqueue path, disable proxy on pinned path, revalidate on re-registration
- Resolve the guarded endpoint IP lazily inside WebPush::Notification#deliver
(on the bounded delivery worker) instead of eagerly when the notification is
built on the serial enqueue path, so a slow resolver can't stall the push job
before any delivery starts. resolved_endpoint_ip only reads the already-loaded
endpoint attribute, so it is safe off the AR connection.
- Pin the delivery socket with an explicit nil proxy address so http_proxy/
https_proxy can't route the request through a proxy that re-resolves the host
and defeats the ipaddr pin.
- Revalidate an existing subscription on re-registration so a row predating
endpoint validation gets the same 422 as a fresh create instead of being kept
alive by touch.
- Regression tests: resolution deferred to delivery, pin survives proxy env,
legacy invalid row rejected with 422.
* Bound the web-push delivery queue (max_queue, not the ignored queue_size)
Concurrent::ThreadPoolExecutor takes :max_queue; :queue_size was silently
ignored, leaving the delivery backlog unbounded (max_queue: 0). A flood of
valid push subscriptions could accumulate queued deliveries without limit --
more acute now that each delivery task also resolves DNS. Using max_queue: 10000
activates the intended cap; overflow raises RejectedExecutionError under the
default :abort policy, which deliver_later already rescues (push is best-effort,
retried on the next message).
* Trim push-SSRF guard comments to match house style
Apply the review suggestions on the push-subscription SSRF guard: replace
the verbose rationale comments with terse one-liners (or drop them where
the code speaks for itself). No behavior change -- the Surfguard-shim
routing, per-delivery public-IP pin, and bounded delivery queue are
untouched.
Bots can only create. A lifecycle notification — an alert that fires and then
resolves, a deploy that starts and finishes, a backup that runs — therefore has
to post a second message, and the room becomes an append-only log of states
rather than a view of the current one.
Adds PATCH and DELETE inside the existing bot_key scope, routed to
Messages::ByBotsController. The body is read the way create reads it, so
updating a message is the same request shape as posting one.
No new authorization: both actions already run through ensure_can_administer,
and can_administer? grants access only to a record the user created, so a bot
key reaches that bot's own messages and no others. set_room narrows it again by
looking the room up through the bot's own memberships. A leaked bot key gains
what it could already do by posting: write to rooms that bot belongs to.
update answers head :ok rather than the redirect, which meant extracting the
update and its broadcast into update_message — calling super and then head
would double render, since the parent redirects inside the action. destroy
needs no split, because the parent renders implicitly like create does.
- Use jbuilder instead of hashes
- Use resource instead of direct HTTP verbs
Verbs only make sense if you have one or two routes, if there are
multiple that emulate what resource does then it's better to use resource.
- Paginate using link headers
- Cache responses
Rooms::DirectsController relaxes ensure_can_administer to true, because every
participant in a direct room may administer it. set_room was inherited unscoped,
though, so that relaxation applied to any room the caller was merely a member of:
DELETE /rooms/directs/<id> destroyed open and closed rooms and all their messages.
The same unscoped lookup let a direct room be loaded by the opens and closeds
controllers, where force_room_type promoted it. Promoting a DM to open grants every
user on the account membership and republishes the whole conversation, including the
other participant's messages; converting it to closed lets the initiator revise who
is in it and lock the other participant out.
Each controller now narrows room_scope to the types it may act on. Opens and closeds
keep reach into each other, since converting between them is a feature. Neither can
reach a direct room, and directs can only reach directs.
Room also refuses to change type away from Rooms::Direct, so the invariant holds for
any future caller of becomes! rather than only these two controllers.
and add test coverage for (un)supported file types.
The avatar and logo variants move into the models and return nil for content
types that are no longer variable, so the controllers fall back to the initials
avatar and stock logo icon instead of raising `ActiveStorage::InvariableError`.
Adds a new endpoint that allows bots to add emoji reactions (boosts) to messages:
POST /rooms/:room_id/:bot_key/messages/:message_id/boosts
This enables bots to acknowledge messages with reactions like 👀 (eyes) when
mentioned, providing immediate feedback to users before generating a full response.
The endpoint:
- Validates the bot is a member of the room
- Validates the message exists in the room
- Broadcasts the boost to connected clients via Turbo Streams
- Returns 201 Created on success, 404 if room/message not found

Changed `message.creator.role == "bot"` to `message.creator.bot?` per
Copilot code review. This is the idiomatic Rails pattern for enum checks
and consistent with how other role checks are done in the codebase.

Both create and index now return HTTP 404 Not Found when a bot tries to
access a room it's not a member of. This is consistent with REST API
security best practices (not revealing resource existence) and ensures
read and write permissions are handled identically.
Changed create action to no longer call super (which rendered HTML) and
instead directly handle the request with proper JSON API error responses.
Added test to verify create returns 404 for non-member rooms.

Added explicit RecordNotFound handling to return 404 when a bot tries to
read messages from a room it's not a member of. This matches the security
model used by the create action.
Added tests to verify:
- Bot gets 404 when trying to read from room it's not a member of
- Bot can successfully read from room it IS a member of
Co-authored-by: openhands <openhands@all-hands.dev>
Adds a new GET endpoint at /rooms/:room_id/:bot_key/messages that allows
bots to read messages from rooms they are members of.
The endpoint returns JSON with:
- Room info (id, name)
- Messages array with body (plain/html), created_at, and creator info
- Pagination info (oldest_id, newest_id, has_more)
Supports pagination via ?before=:id and ?after=:id query parameters,
consistent with the existing pagination in the messages controller.
This enables AI bots and other automated agents to understand conversation
context when responding to messages, rather than only receiving the single
message that triggered the webhook.

This adds the ability to ban a user by their IP address.
When an admin is viewing a user profile, a new "Ban user" button is
present. Clicking on that will:
- Create a ban on the IP addresses that were tracked for that user's
sessions
- Remove all the messages authored by that user
- Log the user out immediately
In addition, that user will no longer be shown in most user lists in the
app. They are still shown to admins, in account settings. Viewing their
profile from there will now show a "Remove ban" button which can be used
to restore their access (it doesn't restore their messages though --
those are already gone -- it just removes the blocks so they can log in
again).
- Simplified message queries in RoomsController#find_messages by replacing multiple includes and preloads with consolidated scopes: with_creator, with_attachment_details, and with_boosts.
- Defined new scopes in Message model to handle rich text, attachments, and boosts associations for cleaner and more maintainable code.
