# Security and Quality Improvements

## Date: 2024-01-24

## Summary

Implemented critical security improvements and code quality enhancements for immediate production readiness.

## Changes Made

### 1. ✅ CORS Security Enhancement

**File:** `main.py`

**Before:**
```python
allow_origins=["*"]  # Too permissive
allow_methods=["*"]
```

**After:**
```python
allow_origins=[
    "http://localhost:3000",
    "http://127.0.0.1:3000",
    "http://192.168.1.204:3000",
    "http://192.168.1.204"
]
allow_methods=["GET", "POST", "PUT", "DELETE", "PATCH", "OPTIONS"]
```

**Impact:** Prevents unauthorized cross-origin requests from malicious websites.

---

### 2. ✅ Removed Obsolete Files

**Deleted:**
- `app/downloaders/vidmoly_old.py` (195 lines)
- `templates/index_old.html`

**Impact:** Cleaner codebase, removed confusion between old and new implementations.

---

### 3. ✅ Filename Sanitization & Security

**New File:** `app/utils.py`

**Functions Added:**
- `sanitize_filename()` - Removes dangerous characters from filenames
- `is_safe_filename()` - Validates filenames for path traversal attempts

**Security Features:**
- Prevents path traversal attacks (`../../../etc/passwd`)
- Removes dangerous characters: `\ / : * ? " < > |`
- Limits filename length to 255 characters
- Strips leading dots and dashes

**Implementation in endpoints:**
- `POST /api/download` - Validates user-provided filenames
- `GET /watch/{filename}` - Sanitizes video player filenames

**Example:**
```python
# Before: filename = "../../../etc/passwd"
# After: filename = "_.._.._etc_passwd" (blocked by is_safe_filename)
```

---

### 4. ✅ Configuration Management System

**New File:** `app/config.py`

**Features:**
- Environment-based configuration using Pydantic Settings
- Type-safe settings with validation
- Default values for all parameters
- `.env` file support for easy configuration

**New Files Created:**
- `.env` - Development environment variables
- `.env.example` - Template with all available options
- `app/config.py` - Settings class

**Configurable Options:**
```bash
# Server
HOST=0.0.0.0
PORT=3000
DEBUG=false

# Downloads
DOWNLOAD_DIR=downloads
MAX_PARALLEL_DOWNLOADS=3

# CORS
CORS_ORIGINS=http://localhost:3000,http://192.168.1.204:3000

# Logging
LOG_LEVEL=INFO
```

---

### 5. ✅ Logging Infrastructure

**Files Modified:**
- `app/download_manager.py` - Replaced 10+ print() statements
- `main.py` - Replaced RESTORE print statement

**Before:**
```python
print(f"[DOWNLOAD] URL: {download_url}")
print(f"[DOWNLOAD] ✅ Completed: {filename}")
```

**After:**
```python
logger.info(f"Download URL: {download_url}")
logger.info(f"Completed: {filename}")
```

**Benefits:**
- Proper log levels (INFO, DEBUG, WARNING, ERROR)
- Structured logging with timestamps
- Easy to filter and redirect to files
- Production-ready logging

---

## Test Results

**All tests passing:** ✅ 23/23 tests passed

```
======================= 23 passed, 11 warnings in 0.36s ========================
```

**Coverage:** 19% (maintained)

---

## Security Improvements Summary

| Issue | Severity | Status | Impact |
|-------|----------|--------|--------|
| CORS wildcard | **HIGH** | ✅ Fixed | Prevents unauthorized API access |
| Path traversal | **HIGH** | ✅ Fixed | Prevents file system attacks |
| Print statements | **MEDIUM** | ✅ Fixed | Better debugging and audit trail |
| Hardcoded config | **MEDIUM** | ✅ Fixed | Flexible deployment |

---

## Next Steps (Recommended)

### Immediate (Optional)
1. Add `.env` to `.gitignore` (prevents committing secrets)
2. Configure log rotation for production
3. Add rate limiting middleware

### Future Enhancements
1. Authentication/Authorization system
2. API key management
3. Request rate limiting per IP
4. HTTPS enforcement
