Security audit follow-up. No Critical/High existed; these close the
Medium/Low findings.
F1 [Med] Host privilege boundary: a host could demote a peer host to
guest and then ban / PIN-reset (→ account takeover via /recover) them,
because the ban/pin-reset peer guards key off the target's *current*
role. set_role now blocks a non-admin from demoting a host.
F2 [Med] Moderation now revokes preview/thumbnail access: they are served
through visibility-checked aliases (/api/v1/upload/{id}/{preview,
thumbnail}) that filter soft-deleted / ban-hidden uploads, and direct
/media/previews|thumbnails is 404-blocked. Feed emits the gated URLs;
Caddy keeps them privately cacheable (max-age=300, short so moderation
revokes promptly — the live feed already evicts cards via SSE). Uses a
lean find_visible_media() (paths+mime only) on the media hot path.
F3 [Med/Low] npm audit fix: svelte 5.55.1→5.56.4 (SSR-XSS advisories),
devalue 5.6.4→5.8.1 (DoS). Prod deps: 0 vulnerabilities.
F4 [Low] /recover no longer leaks account existence: unknown display name
returns the same 401 as a wrong PIN, and runs a dummy bcrypt verify so
timing matches — closing the enumeration + timing oracle.
F5 [Low] SSE streams re-validate the session every ~60s and close once it
is logged out / expired, instead of running until client disconnect.
F6 [Info] X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff set at the app layer on all
media responses (defense-in-depth alongside the edge).
Tests: new e2e specs for F1 (host cannot demote peer host), F2 (preview
gated + 404 after delete + direct /media blocked), F4 (uniform 401).
40 backend unit tests + 182 e2e passing.

The suite was almost entirely e2e; pure logic had no direct coverage. Add fast,
DB-free unit tests on both sides.
Backend (cargo test — inline #[cfg(test)] modules):
- rate_limiter: allow-up-to-max-then-block, per-key independence, sliding-window
expiry, retry-after bounds, clear(), and client_ip X-Forwarded-For parsing
(first entry / whitespace-trim / fallback).
- sse_tickets: single-use consume (replay → None), unknown ticket, uniqueness +
hex shape, prune keeps fresh tickets, and an expired ticket (injected past-TTL
entry) consumes to None.
- hashtag: fill the boundary gaps the 3 existing tests missed — stop-at-non-word,
the 40-char cap (drops, doesn't truncate), no-dedup contract, and the German
umlaut truncation limitation (pinned so a future Unicode fix is deliberate).
Frontend (Vitest — new, standalone config that stubs $app/environment so
server-safe module paths import cleanly under node):
- avatar: avatarPalette (neutral for empty, deterministic, real palette entry) and
initials (?, single word, two words, whitespace collapse).
- data-mode-store: pickMediaUrl across original/saver modes and the
preview→thumbnail→original fallback chain.
- `npm run test:unit` script added.
Backend: 20 passing. Frontend: 11 passing. svelte-check: 0 errors.
