feat(settings): Admin Settings MVP — default columns, 403 guard, OpenRegister init#8
Conversation
…_project_creation, 403 guard, OpenRegister init UI Backend: - SettingsService: add ADMIN_CONFIG_DEFAULTS map with default_columns and allow_project_creation; add getAdminSettings() and setAdminSettings() with unknown-key filtering; add isCurrentUserAdmin() helper; include admin keys in getSettings() response. - SettingsController: guard POST /api/settings with isCurrentUserAdmin() check, returning HTTP 403 for non-admin callers. Frontend (Settings.vue): - New "Default Project Configuration" CnSettingsSection with editable ordered column list (add / remove / move up / move down); saves via POST /api/settings. - New "Register Setup" CnSettingsSection showing OpenRegister availability status and an "Initialize register" button that calls POST /api/settings/load with loading state and success/error feedback. Tests: - SettingsControllerTest: add testCreateReturnsForbiddenForNonAdmin; update testCreateCallsUpdateSettingsAndReturnsSuccess to mock isCurrentUserAdmin. - SettingsServiceTest (new): covers getAdminSettings defaults, setAdminSettings unknown-key filtering, setAdminSettings persist, isCurrentUserAdmin, and getSettings key inclusion. Spec: - Copied spec into openspec/changes/spec/; all tasks marked [x]; design.md status updated to pr-created. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

[CRITICAL] setAdminSettings() is public with no authorization guard
This method is public, meaning any future code path (a new controller action, a repair step, a CLI command) can call it and modify admin-only settings without going through the isCurrentUserAdmin() check that lives in SettingsController. The controller is the only authorization boundary, and that boundary is bypassed if this method is called directly.
Options:
- Make the method
private(orprotected). Test it indirectly throughupdateSettings()— that's the correct way to test internal collaborators. - If it must remain public (e.g. called by a repair step), add an internal guard:
if ($this->isCurrentUserAdmin() === false) { throw new \OCP\AppFramework\Http\Response ... }
As-is, this is a missing defense-in-depth layer.

[WARNING] allow_project_creation and default_columns stored without validation
Any string value is cast and persisted silently. The spec defines allow_project_creation as an enum (all, admins, groups) and default_columns as a JSON array. Invalid values will either break future enforcement logic or cause frontend parse failures.
Suggested fix for setAdminSettings:
private const ALLOWED_PROJECT_CREATION_VALUES = ['all', 'admins', 'groups'];
// inside setAdminSettings:
if ($key === 'allow_project_creation'
&& in_array($settings[$key], self::ALLOWED_PROJECT_CREATION_VALUES, true) === false
) {
continue; // or throw \InvalidArgumentException
}
if ($key === 'default_columns') {
json_decode((string) $settings[$key]);

[WARNING] Use getRequestToken() from @nextcloud/auth instead of the bare OC global
OC.requestToken is a legacy Nextcloud global. @nextcloud/auth is already declared in package.json and provides a typed, testable alternative:
import { getRequestToken } from '@nextcloud/auth'
// ...
headers: { requesttoken: getRequestToken() },The @nextcloud/eslint-config suppresses the no-undef warning for OC, which is why this passed lint. That suppression exists for legacy compat, not as a recommendation.

[CRITICAL] ensureRegisterPublicAccess() enables unauthenticated public read/write on the Planix register
File: lib/Service/SettingsService.php, lines 276–278
Severity: CRITICAL
$qb->update('openregister_registers')
->set('public_write', $qb->createNamedParameter(1, ...))
->set('public_read', $qb->createNamedParameter(1, ...))
->where($qb->expr()->eq('slug', $qb->createNamedParameter('planix')));public_read = 1 and public_write = 1 in OpenRegister grant unauthenticated (anonymous) access to the entire Planix data store. Once an admin clicks "Initialize register", every project, task, and time-tracking record becomes readable and writable without any Nextcloud session — defeating the app's authentication model entirely.
Impact:
- Unauthenticated actors can enumerate all Planix projects and tasks via the OpenRegister REST API.
- Unauthenticated actors can create, modify, or delete records (public_write = 1).
- This contradicts the Nextcloud security model and the Common Ground API-first ADRs that require proper access control.
Recommended fix:
Remove ensureRegisterPublicAccess() entirely, or change it to set public_write = 0, public_read = 0 (private) so that OpenRegister enforces Nextcloud session authentication for all access. If read access for authenticated users is needed, use OpenRegister's role-based ACL rather than the public flag.

[WARNING] Raw exception messages returned to the API caller
File: lib/Service/SettingsService.php, lines 249–258
Severity: WARNING
} catch (\Throwable $e) {
$this->logger->error('Planix: configuration import failed', ['exception' => $e->getMessage()]);
return [
'success' => false,
'message' => $e->getMessage(), // ← raw exception text sent to browser
];
}The raw $e->getMessage() is returned in the JSON response body. Internal exception messages from OpenRegister's ConfigurationService, PDO, or the Nextcloud container may include table names, column names, service endpoint URIs, or stack-context data that are useful to an attacker mapping the application internals.
Although this endpoint is protected by the admin check, a compromised admin account, a misconfigured proxy, or a future regression in the auth gate would expose these details more broadly.
Recommended fix:
Return a generic user-facing message (e.g., 'An unexpected error occurred. Check the Nextcloud server log for details.') and keep the full exception in the server-side log only (already done). The log entry at line 252 is sufficient for debugging.

[WARNING] allow_project_creation stored without allowlist validation
File: lib/Service/SettingsService.php, lines 127–131
Severity: WARNING
foreach (array_keys(self::ADMIN_CONFIG_DEFAULTS) as $key) {
if (array_key_exists($key, $settings) === true) {
$this->appConfig->setValueString(Application::APP_ID, $key, (string) $settings[$key]);
}
}The allow_project_creation setting accepts arbitrary string values. The frontend implies a closed set of options (e.g., all, admins), but the backend applies no allowlist check. An admin could store '<script>alert(1)</script>' or any arbitrary string that is later reflected in UI or consumed by conditional logic.
Recommended fix:
Validate allow_project_creation against a fixed set before persisting:
private const ALLOWED_PROJECT_CREATION_VALUES = ['all', 'admins', 'none'];
// inside setAdminSettings, before setValueString:
if ($key === 'allow_project_creation' && !in_array($settings[$key], self::ALLOWED_PROJECT_CREATION_VALUES, true)) {
continue;

… flags to 0 C1 (Code Review CRITICAL): Changed setAdminSettings() from public to private. Any caller outside SettingsService must now go through updateSettings(), which is the only intended entry point and already sits behind the isCurrentUserAdmin() check in SettingsController. Updated SettingsServiceTest to exercise the two affected test paths via updateSettings() and added appManager/userSession stubs needed by the getSettings() return call. SEC-001 (Security CRITICAL, CWE-862): ensureRegisterPublicAccess() now sets public_write=0 and public_read=0 on the Planix OpenRegister register, keeping it private (authenticated access only). Previously it set both flags to 1, granting anonymous read and write access to all Planix data after an admin clicked "Initialize register". Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Remaining WARNINGs (not addressed — informational):
|
|
[WARNING W-1] Missing enum validation for File: The spec defines // ADMIN_CONFIG_DEFAULTS defines valid values implicitly, but no guard exists:
foreach (array_keys(self::ADMIN_CONFIG_DEFAULTS) as $key) {
if (array_key_exists($key, $settings) === true) {
$this->appConfig->setValueString(Application::APP_ID, $key, (string) $settings[$key]);

}An invalid value (e.g., Suggested fix: Add a whitelist check before storing: private const ALLOW_PROJECT_CREATION_VALUES = ['all', 'admins', 'groups'];
// In setAdminSettings(), before setValueString for allow_project_creation:
if ($key === 'allow_project_creation'
&& in_array($settings[$key], self::ALLOW_PROJECT_CREATION_VALUES, true) === false) {
continue; // silently ignore invalid value, or return a validation error
}Severity: WARNING — does not break current functionality (enforcement is V1), but will create a maintenance hazard when it is added. |
|
[WARNING W-2] No server-side JSON validation for File:
{ "default_columns": "not-valid-json" }The value is persisted to IAppConfig. try {
this.columnList = JSON.parse(raw)
} catch (e) {
this.columnList = ['To Do', 'In Progress', 'Review', 'Done'] // silent fallback
}The admin's saved configuration appears to be lost without any visible error. Suggested fix: Validate JSON and reject non-array values in if ($key === 'default_columns') {
$decoded = json_decode((string) $settings[$key], true);
if (json_last_error() !== JSON_ERROR_NONE || is_array($decoded) === false) {
continue; // skip invalid value
}
}Severity: WARNING — the frontend masks the issue, but the corrupted value stays in config until manually corrected. |
|
[WARNING W-3] Saving an empty column list is silently permitted File: When all columns are removed and saved, default_columns: JSON.stringify(this.columnList.filter(c => c.trim() !== ''))
// → '[]' when all entries are empty or deletedAn empty Suggested fix: Guard against an empty list before calling const filtered = this.columnList.filter(c => c.trim() !== '')
if (filtered.length === 0) {
this.columnsError = t('planix', 'At least one column is required')
this.savingColumns = false
return
}Severity: WARNING — does not break the current settings page, but creates an invalid config state that will surface when column defaults are actually enforced. |

[SUGGESTION S-1] Use File: headers: { requesttoken: OC.requestToken },The import { getRequestToken } from '@nextcloud/auth'
// ...
headers: { requesttoken: getRequestToken() },
Note: this pattern ( Severity: SUGGESTION — no functional impact today. |

->set('public_read', $qb->createNamedParameter(0, ...))Setting these to 0 ensures the Planix register is accessible only to authenticated Nextcloud users, never anonymously. This is the correct security posture. ✅ No action required — acknowledging this as a security improvement in this PR. |

Summary
Implements the Admin Settings MVP (OpenSpec change
spec). The backend now exposesdefault_columnsandallow_project_creationadmin settings viaIAppConfig, with proper defaults and a 403 guard that rejects non-admin write attempts. The frontend admin page gains a Default Project Configuration section (editable ordered column list with add/remove/reorder) and a Register Setup section that shows OpenRegister availability and provides an "Initialize register" button with loading state and success/error feedback.Spec Reference
