- Auto-generate random 32-char bearer token on first startup, stored in
secrets.yaml as api.bearerToken
- BearerAuthMiddleware checks Authorization: Bearer <token> on all /api/
endpoints except /health, /health/reconcile, /events (SSE), and non-API
paths (frontend static files)
- Development mode (WILD_CENTRAL_ENV=development) skips auth entirely
- Web app ApiClient: add setToken/clearToken/hasToken methods, persist
token in localStorage, automatically include Authorization header on
all API requests
- Token can be found in secrets.yaml for CLI/automation use
Config injection prevention:
- Add FQDN validation for domain names (RFC 1123) in Register/Update —
rejects newlines, spaces, shell metacharacters that could inject into
HAProxy/dnsmasq configs
- Add backend address validation (valid host:port format, valid IP or
hostname, port 1-65535). DNS-only backends allow bare IPs.
- Add header key/value validation — keys must be HTTP token chars only,
values must not contain newlines or NULs
- Add WireGuard peer name validation (alphanumeric + hyphens + underscores)
- Add defense-in-depth domain validation in certbot Provision()
Secrets protection:
- Remove ?raw=true bypass on GET /api/v1/secrets — secrets are now always
redacted in API responses regardless of query parameters
- Update test to verify redaction cannot be bypassed
NATS authentication:
- Generate random auth token on first startup, store in secrets.yaml
- Pass token to embedded NATS server via Authorization option
- Internal client connects with the same token
- External NATS clients (Wild Cloud) must now authenticate
Security headers:
- Add X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
- Add X-Frame-Options: DENY
- Add Cache-Control: no-store
Extract the Central networking functionality from wild-cloud/api into
a standalone service. Wild Central manages DNS (dnsmasq), gateway
(HAProxy), firewall (nftables), VPN (WireGuard), TLS (certbot),
security (CrowdSec), and DDNS — all the network appliance concerns.
All Cloud-specific code (instances, clusters, nodes, apps, backups,
operations, kubectl/talosctl tooling) has been removed. The API struct
and route registration contain only Central endpoints. Tests updated
to match the new API signature.
Builds and all tests pass.
