The search box filtered only the 100 rows on screen, in the browser: an
older row seemed not to exist. The page now searches on the server, in
every row's user, host, VM, VM UUID, message and IP, as plain text, and
can show the failed rows only; its pages keep the search.
Failed rows are marked red, dates carry the year and the time zone, and
a VM's rows link to the VM while it is in the panel. Excel downloads the
rows the search chooses, all pages of them, with the VM report's
workbook (text stays text).
The administrator's password form has "The user must change it at their
next login". With it, the user is sent to the change form until they
choose their own, as the generated admin password already does.
- An administrator could block, delete or demote (unset Active or
Superuser on) their own account, and with it the last one, leaving the
panel without anyone to undo it. These are now refused.
- The user form showed "No password set." for users who have one: its
password field never read the user's password. Its "Set password"
link went to ../password/, a page this panel does not have. The form
now says whether a password is set and links the page that sets it.
- "Staff status" said "can log into this admin site"; here it lets a
user change and delete the template VMs given to them, and is now
called Template editor.
- A quota of 0 counted as no limit, like -1, so a user's quota could not
be taken away. Now -1 has no limit and 0 allows none; the help says
so, and the labels give the units: memory in MiB, disk in GiB.
- A user's page for a user that does not exist answered with a server
error instead of not found.
- The user list said "None" for a user who never logged in; it says
"never", and dates fit their column.
- The password form's labels no longer break mid-word.
Which users can reach the API with a token was seen only by opening each
user. The user list now has an API tokens column: the number of the
user's tokens that still work (expired ones are left out; they are
deleted only at the user's next token), linked to the user's token tab.
One query counts them for all users.
Follow-ups from the review of the audit log layers:
- Blocking a user who is already blocked, or unblocking one who is
not, changes nothing and now writes no row, like any other edit
that changes nothing.
- write_chunk takes the request instead of the user and an optional
request; the view always had one, so the branch only tests used
is gone and every chunk 0 goes through the same audited submit.
- Tests: a busy clone creates no job and its row carries the page's
message; a later chunk that fails writes no submit row; libvirt
refusing a network or pool delete is a failed row.
The Logs page now records the panel's own records too: users (add,
change with the changed fields, delete, block, unblock, an admin's
password set, a user's own password change including the first-login
one, own profile edits), groups with their members and permissions,
VM owners from the accounts pages and from the VM page, OTP QR code
mails, flavors from web and API, app settings and the theme,
removed-VM records and SSH keys. No row carries a password or a key.
- A user is created in one transaction: when a VM named in
NEW_USER_DEFAULT_INSTANCES is missing, no half-made user stays.
- The OTP mail checks the email address before it creates a device;
without one it writes a failed row and makes no device.
- The VM page's owner rows read "VM web-1 owner bob: add" and
"...: remove" instead of "Add owner: bob" and "Delete owner: 17"; a
second owner refused by the single-owner setting is a failed row.
Owner rows keep the VM's host and name, so the VM's log tab shows
them.
- A setting or theme posted with its current value is no change and
writes no row; the old free-text setting rows are gone.
Host-side objects (networks, storage, interfaces, secrets, filters)
follow in the next layer.
The Logs page shows who added, changed or deleted a compute, from web
or API, and every login, failed login, lockout and logout, with the
client address and a Result column (Done, Failed, Unknown for older
rows). A failed change is recorded with its reason and the error still
reaches the user; a refused one is recorded too.
- logs.audit.write saves each row in its own savepoint and never
raises, so a log write cannot break or undo the action it records.
The audit() context manager writes one row when the change ends.
- Logs gains success and ip; user, host and instance are wider and
date is indexed. The page orders by date then id.
- A compute edit names the changed fields; an edit that changes
nothing writes no row, and an empty password field is no change.
- A compute's VMs leaving the panel get a system row each: owners
kept on the Removed VMs page, moved to another compute, restored,
left without owners, or the removed record expired.
- Job rows carry the result. A job's log entry that cannot be
computed is logged and skipped instead of rolling back the finish
(test_service.py changes this on purpose).
- Logins are recorded by signal receivers; CustomLoginView is removed
and the plain LoginView is used. A wrong OTP code is a failed login,
counted by django-axes toward the lockout.
Panel records and host-side objects follow in the next layers.
The shared delete page asked only whether to delete the object. Each
view now gives its consequence: a deleted compute's VMs keep running
but the panel forgets them and their owners, a deleted user's VMs
stay, a group's members keep their accounts, a VM's owner loses only
the access, a removed VM's record no longer brings its owners back,
an SSH key stays on the VMs that have it, a flavor only goes as a
size template.

A VM that disappears from its compute keeps its owners in a tombstone
until INSTANCE_OWNERSHIP_RETENTION_DAYS pass, but nothing showed them.
Superusers now see them on the "Removed VMs" admin page (name, UUID,
owners, removed, expires) and can remove one, so a VM deleted on
purpose no longer hands its owners to a later VM with the same UUID.
The user edit page redirected to its ?next= parameter after saving,
whatever it held: a link to the edit page with next=https://other.site
sent the administrator who saved the form to that site (CodeQL
py/url-redirection). The account page links there with a next of this
site.
next is now followed only when url_has_allowed_host_and_scheme accepts
it for this host, as user_instance_delete already does; otherwise the
user list. The test fails on the previous code for an absolute URL, a
scheme-relative one and a backslash variant.
The admin page that creates a user saved the form first, which wrote
the user with the raw password in the password column, and hashed it
with a second save afterwards. The raw password was in the database,
and in its journal and any copy taken meanwhile, and stayed there if
anything failed between the two writes.
- UserCreateForm hashes the password before the first save; groups
and permissions are saved as before.
- The form applies AUTH_PASSWORD_VALIDATORS, after the user fields are
set (so the similarity check sees the new username), as the password
change forms already did. The settings template configures no
validators, so nothing changes unless an installation sets them.
The tests record the SQL parameters of the request: the previous code
wrote the raw password in the INSERT; it also accepted passwords that
configured validators reject.
- user_block, user_unblock and admin_email_otp changed state on GET, so an
<img> tag could lock a user out or trigger OTP emails through an
admin's session. They now require POST; the buttons are CSRF forms.
- The console token cookie is set with httponly, SameSite=Lax and, on
HTTPS, secure. Only novncd reads it; the page gets the token directly.
