# 🛡️ Security Hardening Complete

## Overview

Comprehensive security improvements have been applied to the Church Music Database application to meet production security standards.

## ✅ Completed Security Enhancements

### 1. Rate Limiting (Token Bucket Algorithm)

**File:** `backend/rate_limiter.py`

All API endpoints now have rate limiting to prevent abuse:

| Endpoint | Limit (req/min) | Purpose |
|----------|-----------------|---------|
| `/api/admin/restore` | 5 | Admin-only, highly sensitive |
| `/api/upload_lyric` | 10 | File upload, resource-intensive |
| `/api/export/<plan_id>` | 10 | PDF generation, CPU-intensive |
| `/api/search_external` | 20 | External API calls |
| `/api/profiles` (POST) | 60 | User profile creation |
| `/api/plans`, `/api/songs` | 30-60 | CRUD operations |
| `/api/providers`, `/api/health` | 60 | Metadata endpoints |

**Features:**

- ✅ Thread-safe implementation with locks
- ✅ Per-client tracking by IP address
- ✅ Automatic token refill (1 token/second)
- ✅ `Retry-After` headers for rate-limited clients
- ✅ `X-RateLimit-*` headers for monitoring

**Usage:**

```python
from rate_limiter import rate_limit

@app.route('/api/sensitive')
@rate_limit(max_per_minute=10)
def sensitive_operation():
    # Your code here
```

### 2. Input Validation Framework

**File:** `backend/validators.py`

Comprehensive validation schemas for all data models:

**Profile Schema:**

- Name: 1-200 chars, alphanumeric + spaces/punctuation
- Email: Valid RFC 5322 format
- Phone: 7-20 chars, digits/spaces/dashes/parentheses
- Notes: Max 5000 chars

**Song Schema:**

- Title: 1-500 chars, required
- Artist/Band: 1-200 chars, optional
- Lyrics: Max 100,000 chars
- Chords: Max 50,000 chars

**Plan Schema:**

- Date: ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD)
- Profile ID: Valid UUID v4
- Notes: Max 5000 chars

**Validation Functions:**

- `validate_string()` - Length, pattern, XSS prevention
- `validate_email()` - RFC 5322 compliance
- `sanitize_filename()` - Path traversal prevention
- `validate_uuid()` - UUID format verification

**Usage:**

```python
from validators import validate_request_data, PROFILE_SCHEMA

@app.route('/api/profiles', methods=['POST'])
@validate_request_data(PROFILE_SCHEMA)
def create_profile():
    # Request data is already validated
```

### 3. Enhanced Security Headers

**File:** `backend/app.py` - `set_security_headers()`

Added comprehensive HTTP security headers:

```python
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
X-Frame-Options: DENY
X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline' ...
X-RateLimit-Limit: 60
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 59
Retry-After: 30 (when rate limited)
```

### 4. CORS Configuration Hardening

**File:** `backend/app.py`

**Before:** Wildcard origins (*)
**After:** Strict allow-list

```python
ALLOWED_ORIGINS = [
    "http://localhost:5100",
    "https://houseofprayer.ddns.net"
]
```

**Configuration:**

- ✅ Credentials support: `supports_credentials=True`
- ✅ Restricted methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS
- ✅ Restricted headers: Content-Type, Authorization
- ✅ No wildcard origins

### 5. Environment File Protection

**Files:** `.gitignore`, `backend/.env`

**Actions Taken:**

1. Created `.gitignore` with patterns:

   ```
   *.env
   .env.*
   **/.env
   secrets/
   *.key
   ```

2. Set `.env` permissions: `chmod 0600` (owner read/write only)
3. Created `.env.template` for safe distribution
4. Verified no `.env` files in git history

**Security Check Output:**

```
✓ .env permissions: 0600 (secure)
✓ .gitignore protects .env files
⚠ Weak database password detected: "postgres"
✓ SECRET_KEY length adequate (64 chars)
```

### 6. Database Backup Automation

**File:** `backup-database.sh`

**Features:**

- ✅ Automated PostgreSQL backups with `pg_dump`
- ✅ Gzip compression for space efficiency
- ✅ 7-day retention policy with automatic cleanup
- ✅ Backup integrity verification (gzip -t)
- ✅ Symbolic link to latest backup
- ✅ Comprehensive logging to `backups/backup.log`
- ✅ Size reporting and error handling

**Cron Schedule:**

```bash
# Daily backup at 2 AM
0 2 * * * /media/pts/Website/Church_HOP_MusicData/backup-database.sh

# Weekly full backup on Sundays at 3 AM (30-day retention)
0 3 * * 0 /media/pts/Website/Church_HOP_MusicData/backup-database.sh && \
  cp backups/church_songlyric_latest.sql.gz backups/weekly_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql.gz
```

**Usage:**

```bash
# Manual backup
./backup-database.sh

# Restore from backup
gunzip -c backups/church_songlyric_20240101_020000.sql.gz | \
  psql -h 192.168.10.130 -U songlyric_user -d church_songlyric

# Restore from latest
gunzip -c backups/church_songlyric_latest.sql.gz | \
  psql -h 192.168.10.130 -U songlyric_user -d church_songlyric
```

### 7. Enhanced Process Management

**Files:** `cleanup-ports.sh`, `stop-dev-mode.sh`

**Improvements:**

- ✅ Detect and kill development servers (react-scripts, webpack-dev-server)
- ✅ Force kill with `SIGKILL` if graceful shutdown fails
- ✅ Prevent port conflicts (5100, 8080, 3000, 3001)
- ✅ Comprehensive process cleanup before production deployment

### 8. Logging Infrastructure

**File:** `backend/app.py`

Added centralized logging:

```python
import logging

logging.basicConfig(
    level=logging.INFO,
    format='%(asctime)s [%(levelname)s] %(name)s: %(message)s',
    handlers=[
        logging.FileHandler('backend/app.log'),
        logging.StreamHandler()
    ]
)

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.info("Application started")
```

## 🔴 Critical Issues Identified (Action Required)

### 1. Weak Database Password

**Issue:** Database password is "postgres" (common default)
**Risk:** Brute-force attacks, unauthorized access
**Priority:** HIGH

**Fix:**

```bash
# Generate strong password (32 chars)
openssl rand -base64 32

# Update .env file
POSTGRESQL_URI=postgresql://songlyric_user:NEW_STRONG_PASSWORD@192.168.10.130:5432/church_songlyric

# Update PostgreSQL user password
psql -h 192.168.10.130 -U postgres -c "ALTER USER songlyric_user PASSWORD 'NEW_STRONG_PASSWORD';"

# Restart backend service
sudo systemctl restart church-music-backend.service
```

### 2. Client-Side Authentication

**Issue:** Password hash hardcoded in `frontend/src/App.js`
**Risk:** Anyone can view source and bypass authentication
**Priority:** CRITICAL

**Recommended Solution:**

1. Implement server-side JWT authentication
2. Store passwords hashed with bcrypt (backend)
3. Issue short-lived access tokens (15 min)
4. Implement refresh token rotation
5. Add session management with Redis

**Immediate Mitigation:**

- Restrict frontend URL to internal network only
- Add IP whitelisting in Nginx
- Monitor access logs for suspicious activity

### 3. Monolithic Architecture

**Issue:** `app.py` (935 lines), `App.js` (7661 lines)
**Risk:** Hard to maintain, test, and debug
**Priority:** MEDIUM

**Recommended Refactoring:**

```
backend/
├── app.py (Flask app initialization)
├── routes/
│   ├── profiles.py
│   ├── songs.py
│   ├── plans.py
│   └── admin.py
├── middleware/
│   ├── rate_limiter.py ✅
│   ├── validators.py ✅
│   ├── auth.py (NEW)
│   └── error_handler.py (NEW)
├── models/
│   └── postgresql_models.py ✅
└── utils/
    ├── file_processing.py (NEW)
    └── database.py (NEW)

frontend/src/
├── App.js (routing only)
├── pages/
│   ├── LoginPage.js
│   ├── ProfilesPage.js
│   ├── SongsPage.js
│   └── PlansPage.js
└── components/
    ├── ProfileCard.js
    ├── SongCard.js
    └── PlanCard.js
```

### 4. No Automated Testing

**Issue:** Zero test coverage
**Risk:** Regression bugs, production failures
**Priority:** MEDIUM

**Recommended Additions:**

```
tests/
├── test_rate_limiter.py
├── test_validators.py
├── test_api_profiles.py
├── test_api_songs.py
├── test_api_plans.py
└── test_security.py
```

```

### 4. Monitor Logs

```bash
# Backend logs
tail -f backend/app.log

# Rate limiting stats
grep "Rate limit exceeded" backend/app.log | wc -l

# Backup logs
tail -f backups/backup.log
```
