- The VM's console settings have no "Clear keymap" box: it wrote an empty
keymap attribute into the VM, and choosing Auto already removes the
keymap; that change is logged as "remove console keymap".
- The "Clip viewport" switch was labelled "View Clipboard".
- The full console page no longer fills the password field with "None"
for a VM without a console password.
The lite and the full console page each carried the same 150 lines that
send key combinations (Ctrl+Alt+Del, Ctrl+Alt+F1..F12, Alt+Tab, ...). They
now import static/js/console_keys.js, which binds the menu to the page's
RFB connection.
The console pages connect to /novncd/ on the address, scheme and port the
page itself was loaded from; nginx proxies it to novncd, which listens on
the loopback only. There is nothing to configure: the console works on
HTTPS (wss), behind another proxy and on any published port.
Before, the page connected to WS_PUBLIC_HOST/PORT/PATH, port 6080 by
default: straight to novncd, past nginx and without TLS, so an HTTPS panel
and a Docker container published on another port had no console until the
public port was set by hand, and novncd listened on every interface.
Gone: WS_PUBLIC_PORT, WS_PUBLIC_HOST, WS_PUBLIC_PATH and WS_CERT, the
installer's two public console questions and its 6080 firewall rule, the
Docker image's WS_PUBLIC_PORT and its init script lines, the manual
install's firewall rule for 6080 and nginx's unused /websockify location.
WS_HOST defaults to 127.0.0.1. A VM with a QEMU websocket port is still
reached on that port of the panel's host name (left for a separate
decision).
- Validate and coerce console query parameters (view_only, scale, resize_session, clip_viewport) to strict booleans via to_bool in console/views.py
- Sanitize view parameter to strictly 'lite' or 'full'
- Apply escapejs filter to all JS string interpolations in console-vnc-full.html, console-vnc-lite.html, console-spice-lite.html, and console-xterm.html
- Replace unsafe '| safe' filter in console-spice-lite.html with escapejs
- Add unit tests for XSS query param mitigation and escapejs character encoding
- Upgrade vendored noVNC library in static/js/novnc/ from 1.2.0 to 1.7.0
- Remove obsolete IE11 polyfills (promise.js, browser-es-module-loader)
- Preserve custom app/styles/lite.css for embedded lite view
- Update console-vnc-full.html stylesheets, modern icon set, and dialogs
- Modernize console-vnc-full.html startup via UI.start() with Django context mapping
- Dynamically resolve package.json and localization dictionaries via import.meta.url
