Portainer stack variables are substitution values for the compose file,
not container environment. A var added to the stack and not listed here
is silently absent at runtime.
Adds identity.py (schema, capability map, scrypt passwords, invites,
sessions, login throttle, boot seed) and auth.py (login, invite
acceptance, account page). app.py gains two imports and one wiring
block at EOF; no existing behaviour changes.
Units are a table seeded from the site constants. Roles split: leader
and member per unit in memberships, owner and admin site-wide in
people.global_role, so a unit added later cannot under-grant an admin.
tests/smoke_identity.py covers the rules that are invisible when wrong:
single-use invites, reissue revoking the prior link, expiry, idle and
absolute session bounds, throttling, and the capability split. 49 checks.
The app is the only process on this box accepting unauthenticated input from
the internet and it was running as root in a writable container. Now uid 10001,
read_only with a tmpfs /tmp, cap_drop ALL and no-new-privileges. Host-side
/srv/scout-website/data and the service account key are chowned to 10001.
Verified on a throwaway container: every route, the admin API, spam rejection,
and a real submission writing to both the jsonl and SQLite.
NPM proxies to scout-website:8000 over arrstack_arr_net, so the 0.0.0.0 publish
only provided a LAN path that bypassed the proxy, its exploit blocking and its
real-client-IP logging.
Three bot submissions landed 2026-08-30 with both selects carrying the
placeholder label "Select one..." - required= is browser-only and a direct
POST skips it. Adds a hidden honeypot (answers 303 so the bot sees success)
and server-side checks on name, email, children, interested_in and source.
Rejections are logged with the client IP and never touch any store.
