The console settings form on the VM detail page renders the VNC password
(PasswordInput(render_value=True)) and was shown to every is_staff user.
A staff user with the global view_instances permission, or a staff owner
without is_vnc, could read the VNC password of every VM they could see.
Add instances.utils.can_manage_console (active superuser, or an active
owner with is_change and is_vnc), which matches what update_console
already enforced. The detail view only builds the form, and so only puts
the password into the page, when it returns True; the template and
update_console use the same rule.
- Computes API: mark password as write_only in ComputeSerializer, restrict ComputeViewSet and architectures to IsAdminUser.
- Instances API: enforce user ownership tenant isolation in InstanceViewSet.list, restrict MigrateViewSet and CreateInstanceViewSet to IsAdminUser, require IsAdminUser for mutating FlavorViewSet.
- Storage, Network, and Interface APIs: restrict StorageViewSet, VolumeViewSet, NetworkViewSet, InterfaceViewSet to IsAdminUser.
- AppSettings & NWFilters: protect appsettings and nwfilter views with @superuser_only (403 Forbidden for non-superusers).
- noVNC Console: sign tokens with TimestampSigner (salt='console.novnc', max_age=600), verify signature and user authorization in novncd with backward-compatible fallback for debug/test mode.
- Accounts: avoid hardcoded default admin password; generate cryptographically secure random password unless ADMIN_PASSWORD is set (preserve 'admin' in test runner).
- gstfsd daemon: bind to 127.0.0.1 by default instead of 0.0.0.0.
- Tests: added comprehensive test coverage for API security, token expiration/rejection, and view permissions (132 tests passing).
- Remove obsolete spice-html5 static assets and SPICE console templates
- Restrict default console types to VNC with migration 0012
- Filter out SPICE in VM creation form and backend capabilities
- Return friendly deprecation notice if legacy VM is opened with SPICE
- Clean up docs, architecture references, and libvirt-bootstrap scripts
- Relax libvirt-python and lxml version pins to allow precompiled distro packages
- Add PEP 508 environment marker to crypt-r (python_version >= 3.13) to avoid unnecessary C compilation on Python 3.12
- Add stdlib crypt fallback when crypt_r is not available in instances/views.py
- Make LDAP imports and configuration optional in settings.py.template
- Add --system-site-packages and missing packages in webvirtcloud.sh for RHEL/CentOS
- Update README with working Rocky Linux / RHEL / Fedora installation and local dev setup
