`caddy:set`, `haproxy:set`, and `traefik:set` previously accepted per-app writes for properties that only have a single host-wide reader, so `:set myapp image foo:bar` printed a success message while `:report myapp` kept showing the global default. The per-app form is now rejected with `The key '<key>' can only be set globally`, matching the existing rejection used for haproxy `refresh-conf` and traefik `challenge-mode`. Caddy `tls-internal` remains the only legitimate per-app property in this family.
The property name set via `app-json:set` is `appjson-path`, but the matching read-back flags on `app-json:report` were named `--app-json-selected`, `--app-json-global-selected`, and `--app-json-computed-selected`. The mismatch meant `dokku app-json:report <app> --app-json-appjson-path` (the form already documented in deployment-tasks.md) was rejected as an invalid flag, and the `--format json` output advertised keys that did not correspond to any settable property. The flags and JSON keys are renamed to `--app-json-appjson-path`, `--app-json-global-appjson-path`, and `--app-json-computed-appjson-path` so that the property name round-trips through set and report.
Several plugin `:report` subcommands erroneously failed with `not deployed` when an info-flag matched a property that was empty. Empty values are legitimate for configuration properties pre-deploy and the `--format json` path already returns them without error. Remove the `value_exists` check across nginx, checks, git, certs, scheduler-docker-local, and the builder-* plugins so the info-flag form behaves consistently with the JSON form.
Adds a bats lint test that guards the static wiring (nginx conf, dokku-restore finish-script ordering, my_init sentinel reset, and the Dockerfile HEALTHCHECK line) plus a docker smoke test that boots the built image, waits for the health flip, exercises the loopback endpoint, asserts the port is not published to the host, and verifies the negative path. The smoke test is invoked via a new `make test-image-healthcheck` target and runs automatically in the build-image action after `docker buildx --load`.
The shipped catch-all default site uses `ssl_reject_handshake`, which is unsupported on nginx older than 1.19.4 and causes nginx to fail to start on Debian Bullseye. The postinst now detects the installed nginx version and installs an HTTP-only variant of the catch-all on older systems.
The security fix that quoted `$APP` inside the pre-receive hook heredoc changed the literal hook contents from `dokku git-hook foo` to `dokku git-hook "foo"`, so the existing substring assertions no longer match.
The previous app name validation regex permitted shell metacharacters such as `;`, `$`, backticks, `|`, and `&`. These names were embedded unquoted into the generated git pre-receive hook script, allowing an authenticated user to execute arbitrary commands as the dokku user simply by pushing to a remote with a crafted app name. App names are now restricted to lowercase alphanumerics, dots, and hyphens, and the hook script also quotes the app variable as a defense-in-depth measure.
Bats runs tests under `set -eo pipefail`, so when `grep -F -o` finds nothing inside the count pipe it exits 1, the whole pipe fails, errexit fires, and the function aborts before reaching the count comparison. Wrap grep in `{ ... || true; }` so the pipe stays zero when the pattern is absent and the helper falls through to the flunk message.
Replaces the `DOKKU_ARCHIVE_MAX_SIZE` and `DOKKU_ARCHIVE_MAX_FILES` environment variables with global git properties (`archive-max-size` and `archive-max-files`), configurable via `dokku git:set --global` and surfaced through `dokku git:report --global`. Defaults remain `1073741824` bytes and `10000` entries.
Archives passed to git:from-archive and certs:add were extracted without symlink or path validation, allowing a crafted archive to write arbitrary files anywhere writable by the dokku user via symlink traversal. Extraction now pre-scans entries for absolute paths, parent traversal, and unsafe symlinks, applies the GNU tar `--no-unsafe-links` flag when available, and validates symlinks after extraction.
The previous use of `touch` before `netrc set` allowed the file to inherit the umask and be world-readable, exposing stored git credentials to local users. The set and unset paths now explicitly chmod 0600 and chown to the dokku user, and the plugin install hook repairs permissions on already-affected installations.
Add defense-in-depth sanitization for OpenResty include files to prevent
OS command injection via malicious filenames that break shell quoting in eval.
- Add filename validation in core-post-extract using regex [^a-zA-Z0-9_.-]
- Validate both http-includes and location-includes paths
- Abort deploy via dokku_log_fail on unsafe filenames
- Skip non-regular files (symlinks, directories) during extraction
- Add security regression test with unsafe filename containing space
- Keep existing guards in docker-args-process-deploy as belt-and-suspenders
- Update documentation to clarify allowed filename characters
Addresses CVSS 9.9 vulnerability where filenames like poc'$(cmd)'x.conf
could escape shell quoting and execute arbitrary commands during deploy.
Replace the bash pattern-substitution loop with grep -F -o piped to wc -l so the helper counts literal substring occurrences instead of treating the expected value as a glob pattern. The old implementation interpreted `[`, `]`, `*`, `?`, and `\` as pattern syntax, which made `assert_output_contains "['task.py', 'test']"` report 17 matches against an output that contained the string exactly once - the inner characters were being matched as a character class. assert_output_not_contains delegates to assert_output_contains and is fixed transitively.
The previous form set `trap "rm -rf '$TMP_DIR'" RETURN` inside the test, but bats propagates `RETURN` traps to nested function calls, so the trap fired on the first `assert_success` and removed the work directory before the trigger script ran. Switching to bats's per-test `BATS_TEST_TMPDIR` removes the trap entirely and lets bats handle cleanup.
Both helpers wrap `run /bin/bash -c "..."` with the env vars dokku plugin scripts and `plugn` need, replacing the long inline boilerplate that was duplicated across `tests/unit/resource_3.bats` and the new `core-post-extract` regression tests in the builder bats files.
The builder-dockerfile, builder-lambda, builder-nixpacks, builder-pack and builder-railpack `core-post-extract` triggers assigned `$2` to a local `SOURCECODE_WORK_DIR` but called `pushd "$TMP_WORK_DIR"`, which was unset. Bash 5.2 silently accepted `pushd ""`, so the bug stayed dormant. Bash 5.3 (shipped with Ubuntu 26.04) makes it a hard error and `set -e` aborts the trigger, causing every `git push` to fail with `pushd: null directory`.
