- Deleting a rule removes the row clicked, by its position, instead of the
first rule with the same action, direction and priority; a filter changed
since the page was read is refused instead of losing another rule.
- An added rule is added as entered, with all its attributes. It was merged
into a rule with the same action, direction and priority, where libvirt
keeps only the first protocol, so the new rule was silently dropped.
- A new filter shows in the list after it is created.
The list pages' search (filter-table.js) read what was typed as a
regular expression: a "(" or "[" stopped it with an error. It also
needed jQuery, while the instance list had its own script for the same
search. Both are now static/js/table_filter.js: plain text in any case,
the instance list's state list and host groups where a page has them,
remembered for a day as before. A group's header row is marked as one
(data-group-header) instead of being any row without a state.
sortable.js 0.8.0 (abandoned since 2014) sorted only a table's first
body: in the grouped VM list the first host's row moved among its VMs
and the other hosts never sorted, and memory sorted as text ("1024 MB"
before "512 MB"). tablesort 5.7.1 sorts each table body on its own and
keeps a row marked data-sort-method="none" in place, so hosts stay in
name order with their row on top and their VMs sort below it. Memory,
vCPUs and volume sizes sort by their numbers (data-sort). Headers are
reachable by keyboard and carry aria-sort.
base.html loads tablesort for every table marked data-sortable; the
per-page sortable includes and sortable-theme-bootstrap.css go, so these
tables take the theme's table style like the others. The grouped list's
row numbers go (meaningless once sorted). The VM owners and VM logs
tables were marked sortable but never loaded the script; they stay
unsorted.
The Logs page now records every change an admin makes to a compute's
libvirt objects, with the compute's name in the host column:
- networks: add, start, stop, delete, autostart, DHCP range, fixed
addresses, QoS and XML edits;
- storage pools: add, start, stop, delete, autostart, from web and
API; volumes: add and delete (web and API), clone and ISO upload;
- host interfaces: add, start, stop, delete;
- secrets: add, set value (never the value), delete;
- network filters: add, clone, delete, XML edits, rules and
references.
A refused or failed change is a failed row with its reason (libvirt
text through safe_text). The volume clone and upload jobs write their
row when they end; a refused submission is a failed row at once. A
volume row names the volume libvirt created (a dir pool adds .qcow2 or
.img). Volume create or delete through the API on an inactive pool
(409) is a failed row.
Network filters: the rows read "Network filter f1: add" instead of
"f1 network filter is created", and their host is the compute's name
instead of its hostname. A duplicate name or UUID no longer raises a
bare exception, and a filter XML that cannot be parsed no longer ends
in UnboundLocalError.
Every change to a filter (a rule or reference removed or added, the XML
edited) undefined it and defined the new XML. libvirt refuses to
undefine a filter a running VM uses, so none of these worked on such a
filter; on an unused one a refused definition was undone by defining
the old XML without its UUID, so the filter came back as another one.
The filter is now defined again with its own UUID, which libvirt does
in place, while VMs use it too; XML it cannot parse or apply to the
running VMs is refused and reported. The XML editor shows the UUID.

Twenty-five prompts asked only "Are you sure?", and on the storage page
one handler asked the same before every button, Start and Enable
included. Each destructive button now names its object and says what
happens: a stopped network cuts running VMs off, a deleted pool keeps
its files, a deleted volume loses its data, a reverted snapshot loses
the changes made since. Saves no longer ask, and disabled buttons lose
prompts they could not show. The VM QoS messages said to restart the
network where the VM has to be powered off and on.

Column offsets without a breakpoint applied below it, where the column
is already full width, so the change password, compute, user, VM
create and VM settings forms ran past the right edge on a phone. Each
offset now starts at its column's breakpoint. The interface and network
detail lists were rows directly inside rows and sit in a column now;
the compute form loses a Bootstrap 3 thumbnail padding that broke its
gutters, and the add-rule dialog's hint is no longer cut off. The page
test checks both grid rules on every page.

Twenty tables had no .table-responsive wrapper, so on a phone the user
list, compute list, VM lists, network and network filter pages scrolled
sideways as a whole. Each table now scrolls inside its box, as the
other ten already did. The page test walks the network page too, and
checks that every table on every page has the wrapper.

An accessibility scan of the pages on a real host (the earlier scans ran
on libvirt's test driver) found unnamed elements the test driver never
renders: the network page's add fixed address buttons and their dialog
fields, the XML box of each nwfilter's details dialog and the convert
checkbox of the volume clone dialog. The buttons get a title, the labels
a for= and the fields an id, the XML box an aria-label.
An accessibility scan (axe-core, WCAG 2 A/AA) of every page found 87
elements without a name. Icon-only buttons and links (the navbar's
administration menu on every page, the add/create buttons, the flavor
delete and back buttons) get a title, which is also their tooltip; the
labels of the language, architecture, chipset and filter selects point
at them; the memory bar is named. The shared delete confirmation page
had an empty <title> and heading, as no view passes "title": it says
"Delete <object>". The power-off form's aria-label was misspelled.
Rendered through every URL on libvirt's test driver, the pages had
duplicate IDs and markup browsers repaired silently:
- Each flavor modal's "Advanced" button toggled #flav-add-collapse, the
first modal's section; every modal now has its own. The flavor and
template copies of the custom tab's control IDs, and the template
tab's unused images input, are gone.
- The VM page's action icons and the XML editors were styled by
repeated IDs; they use classes.
- Modal forms opened inside modal-body and closed after modal-footer;
they wrap both. Stray end tags and duplicate attributes are removed,
paragraphs no longer hold modals or rows, table heads have a row, and
the create page closes its row and column.
- html lang is the active language instead of "en".
A test walks every URL as a superuser and fails on a repeated ID. The
console page still has no doctype: its full-height layout relies on
quirks mode and needs its own check.
131 test modules sat next to the code they test; instances alone had
51 of them beside views.py and utils.py. They move into a
tests/ package per app, and the JavaScript checks into
webvirtcloud/tests/js. Each non-empty tests.py becomes tests/test_views.py;
the empty generated stubs are removed.
Imports of the app's own modules become absolute, paths built from
__file__ go one level up, the live helper is instances.tests.livetest,
and coverage omits */tests/*. The suite discovers the same 960 tests as
before.
Clone:
- only shut-off VMs are cloned, as the UI already required: a running
guest keeps writing while its disks are copied; the definition comes
from the persistent XML;
- MAC addresses and disk destinations are checked before anything is
allocated;
- every volume the clone creates (NVRAM and disks) is tracked; if a
later copy or the definition fails, only those are deleted, and any
that cannot be deleted are named in the error. Before, a failed clone
left its earlier copies behind.
libvirtError(msg) reports the thread's last libvirt error instead of
msg when there is one, so WebVirtCloud's own errors could show an
earlier, unrelated failure. util.OperationError, a libvirtError
subclass that keeps its message, replaces those raises in vrtManager,
instances and nwfilters; 'except libvirtError' still catches it.
Super-linter ran from the unpinned :latest image and, because of
branches-ignore: [master], never on pull requests to master. Ruff now
checks syntax errors and pyflakes rules (E9, F) on every push and PR.
Fixes the existing findings: unused imports and variables, an unused
duplicate import in instances/tests.py, and the star import in
accounts/views.py. settings-dev.py keeps its star import of the base
settings.
- 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).
