ignacionelson bab90c0ad8 Scan uploaded files for viruses, and withhold them until they are checked
Every upload now starts as "being checked" and is not served to anyone
until a scanner has looked at it. Infected files are quarantined: kept
on disk, unreachable, waiting for an administrator.

The scanner is ClamAV, reached over a socket, streaming the file
wherever it is stored — no temporary copy for an S3 or GCS disk. What
the scanner answers is a fact; what it means for the file is this
installation's setting, so ClamAvScanner knows nothing about settings
and ScanPolicy knows nothing about sockets. Three of clamd's own alert
options are what make a file it could not open come back as an answer
rather than as "OK"; the client maps those to "too large" and
"encrypted" instead of to a threat.

Both policies default to letting files through, marked "not scanned",
which is the product owner's decision: a scanner that cannot answer must
not stop people working. Every such file is logged, and the screens that
say so come with the rest of this work.

Withholding is two rules. A file that is not available drops out of the
scopes that answer "what may this person see" — recipients and the
public listings, never the uploader's own copy. And every route that
puts bytes on the wire asks FileAvailability first: download, thumbnail,
preview, share link, the four public routes and both ends of a zip
build. A share link minted before the scan finishes says the file is
still being checked rather than 404ing.

Not yet here, and coming next: the quarantine screen and its permission,
the notifications, the settings screen, the hourly retry, the backfill
for existing libraries, and the Docker service.

ignacionelson d6fd5a917d Send downloads the way the web server in front of us understands
Uploads live outside the web root, so PHP authorizes every download and
then hands the file to the web server with a header naming it. Four
routes decided that for themselves and all four hard-coded nginx's
spelling. On Apache or LiteSpeed nothing acts on the header, so the
empty body PHP sent goes to the visitor: files upload fine, thumbnails
are broken images, and downloads arrive as 0 bytes, with every other
page working. Reported as #1765 from an Apache 2.4 install, and before
that as #1266, #1215, #870 and #1271.

It is also a regression from v1, which had a download_method setting --
php, apache_xsendfile, litespeed, nginx_xaccel -- defaulting to php. v1
therefore worked on any server out of the box and v2 did not, and a v1
Apache user migrating lost every download with nothing to tell them why.

So the four sites now go through one FileDelivery, and it picks:

  auto (default)  nginx when SERVER_SOFTWARE says nginx, else php
  nginx           X-Accel-Redirect, a URL path via the internal location
  xsendfile       X-Sendfile, an absolute path (Apache mod_xsendfile,
                  LiteSpeed)
  php             BinaryFileResponse

Defaulting to auto rather than nginx is the point of the change: a
default that assumes nginx leaves an Apache install exactly as broken as
it is today until somebody reads INSTALL.md. Slow beats empty.

Auto never picks xsendfile, even where the module is loaded.
mod_xsendfile also needs XSendFilePath to allow the storage directory,
which cannot be seen from here, and choosing it on the strength of the
module being present would trade a silent failure an administrator can
diagnose from the dashboard for one nobody can.

BinaryFileResponse rather than a readfile loop because it answers Range
requests. nginx does that itself on the fast path, so hand-rolling it
would have broken seeking through a video on exactly the installations
this fallback exists for. Verified end to end: 206 with the right
Content-Range through the live stack.

Two guards. Every method checks the path cannot climb out of the storage
area -- nginx resolves `..` in the URL it is handed as happily as PHP
would -- and the two methods that hand over a filesystem path resolve it
and prove it lands inside the root. Callers pass paths from rows they
just authorized, so this is a backstop; it is here because the cost of
being wrong once is handing over any file the web server can read.

The dashboard's System panel names the method, with a warning icon and a
dialog when PHP is doing the sending: what is happening, what it costs
(one worker held for the whole of each download, so a few large
simultaneous ones can occupy every worker while the processor sits
idle), why it is set that way, and the three ways out. Written to be
accurate rather than reassuring -- nothing is broken, it does not scale
-- and the notice stays even when php was chosen deliberately, because
the trade-off is the same either way. /system/settings/downloads repeats
it, which is where somebody coming from v1 goes looking for the
dropdown.

An environment variable rather than a stored setting: it describes the
server this installation runs on, not a preference, and a value in the
database travels to a different server in a restore and is wrong there.
Read only in config/projectsend.php, so config:cache cannot blank it.

The suite pins itself to nginx. Left at auto it would detect no server
at all, fall back to php, and quietly retire the coverage of the
mechanism most installations actually use.

ignacionelson 5117511946 Merge pull request #1732 from denkfabrik-li/fix/public-preview-log-debounce
FileThumbnailController::preview() writes at most one FilePreviewed row per viewer per file per five minutes, because watching a video is a single deliberate act that the browser turns into dozens of Range requests. Its docblock ended by naming the route where the same act happens without an account -- PublicGroupsController::preview -- and that route logged unconditionally. Five requests for the same public file wrote five rows where the signed-in twin wrote one, so one visitor watching one clip buried the public half of the activity log, which is the half an operator reads to see what the outside world is doing.

The window moves into a shared PreviewLog, next to PreviewKind, which those two routes already share for the same reason. Keying is unchanged for a signed-in viewer. An anonymous visitor has no account to key on, so the request IP stands in -- the same substitute ApiServiceProvider's rate limiter makes for an unauthenticated caller. It is a cache key with a five-minute life and never reaches the log, which keeps its own decision about recording an IP.

Downloads are deliberately untouched and stay one row per download: each is a transfer, and DownloadAllowance::used() counts those rows to enforce a per-file cap, so swallowing one would hand out free downloads.

The limit this leaves open, since the IP is a stand-in and not an identity: two anonymous visitors behind one address share a key, so within five minutes the second one's view of the same file is not recorded. That is the same trade the signed-in side has always made per account, and the alternative is the row-per-Range-request this fixes.

Verified before merging: 24 passed across the public-preview and thumbnail suites on the trial-merge, which also confirms this co-exists with #1725 -- the two share both controllers and change different methods in each. With app/ reset and PreviewLog deleted, 1 failed / 9 passed. The signed-in route's existing debounce tests pass unchanged, which is what says the shared class did not move that side. request()->ip() honours the trusted-proxy configuration, so a forged X-Forwarded-For cannot defeat the window from outside.

Reported and fixed by @denkfabrik-li.

denkfabrik-li fc758c701a Write a rendition through a temporary file, and never serve an empty one
Both thumbnail routes treat "the file exists" as "the rendition is
cached", and nothing ever invalidates one: RenderedImageCache::flush()
runs on ImageRenderingChanged, which no core code raises. Whatever is at
the path is what every later viewer gets.

ThumbnailGenerator encoded straight onto that path. A render that died
partway -- a full volume, a killed worker -- left a half-written file
that was then served as the rendition for good, and two requests
rendering the same file at once encoded into one path together.

It now writes beside the destination and renames into place. rename()
within a directory is atomic and replaces what is there, so the path is
either the previous rendition or a complete new one, and the loser of a
race leaves a whole image rather than a mixture of two. The temporary
file is removed on the way out either way.

The read side gets the other half: an empty file is not a rendition, so
both routes replace one rather than serve it. Writing through a temporary
file means this state can no longer be created here, but an installation
that ran an older version can already have it on disk, and nothing else
will ever clear it.

Three tests: an empty rendition is replaced on the signed-in route and on
the public one, and a successful render leaves nothing half-written
behind. Without the fix the first two go red; the third is about the fix's
own temporary file and passes either way.

denkfabrik-li c2dd2c758a Debounce the public preview log the way the signed-in one already is
FileThumbnailController::preview() writes at most one FilePreviewed row
per viewer per file per five minutes, because a browser turns one video
into a long tail of Range requests against the same URL. Its docblock
names the anonymous route as the place the same act happens without an
account -- and that route logs unconditionally.

Measured: five requests for the same public file, five
PublicFilePreviewed rows, against one for the signed-in twin. One visitor
watching one clip buries the public half of the activity log, which is
also the half an operator reads to see what the outside world is doing.

The window is now a shared PreviewLog, next to PreviewKind, which the two
preview routes already share for the same reason. Keying is unchanged for
a signed-in viewer; an anonymous one has no account to key on, so the
request IP stands in -- the same substitute the API's rate limiter makes
for an unauthenticated caller. It is a cache key with a five-minute life
and never reaches the log, which keeps its own decision about recording an
IP (ActivityLogger::shouldRecordIp, Setting::DownloadIpLogging).

Three tests: the replay is one row, two visitors are two rows, and the
window is per file. Without the fix the first goes red.

ignacionelson 57540164fa Read a file from the disk it is actually on, everywhere
Two routes still assumed every file sits on local disk, which stopped
being true the moment external storage was switched on. A share link
answered with X-Accel-Redirect whatever the file's disk said, pointing
nginx at a path it has nothing behind; a public listing built a
thumbnail from Storage::disk('files')->path(), which for an externally
stored file is a path nobody ever wrote. Both fail only for installs
using S3, and only on those two routes, so the same file downloading
correctly from the file manager made the share link look like the
broken thing rather than where the file lives.

Neither is a new rule. FileDownloadController and
FileThumbnailController already did it right, which is the actual
finding: the knowledge was sitting in a private method on one class and
inline in another, so the next caller could not inherit it and did not.
Both are now objects with one job.

StoredFileResponse replaces InlineFileResponse and grows an
attachment() alongside inline(), since the two differ only by
disposition. LocalSourceFile takes a closure rather than returning a
path: the version that returned one also left the caller to unlink it,
and both of those are exactly the mistakes made here.

The regression tests fail against the previous controllers — checked in
both directions rather than assumed.

ignacionelson 88c182cf3b Preview video, audio and PDF, not only images
v1 could preview four kinds of file in a modal — images, video, audio and
PDF. v2 previewed only images, and not by decision: preview shipped as part
of the image *thumbnail* work (1c68aa1), so "previewable" quietly became a
synonym for "GD can decode it". FileThumbnailController::preview() gated on
ThumbnailGenerator::SUPPORTED_MIME_TYPES, the frontend mirrored the same
four types, and the dialog was a hardcoded <img>.

Rather than widen that list — it drives pathFor(), extensionFor(),
generate() and FileDiskCleanup, and a video reaching getimagesize() is a
500 — this separates the two questions. PreviewKind now answers "may these
bytes be served inline, and what element renders them?", while
ThumbnailGenerator keeps answering the narrower "can this app decode it
itself?", which is what renditions, the cache and the watermark hook
actually depend on. Image delegates to it so the two cannot drift.

The allowlist stays a security boundary: mime_type is sniffed from the
bytes, so text/html and image/svg+xml remain excluded, and PreviewKind is
deliberately narrower than "formats a browser might cope with" — no
quicktime, avi or matroska, because an embedded player for those shows a
black rectangle. Those still download exactly as before.

docs/security-audit-2026-08-05.md finding 1 recorded that adding
application/pdf "should be a conscious decision". This is that decision,
and three things were measured rather than assumed:

- An <iframe sandbox> cannot be used. Chrome refuses to run its PDF viewer
  in a sandboxed frame at all (ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT, with or without
  allow-same-origin) — the attribute removes the feature, it does not
  harden it.
- nginx's `Content-Security-Policy: sandbox; default-src 'none'` on
  /protected-files/ does work (a <video> frame lands in an opaque origin),
  but Chrome exempts its PDF viewer from it, so it is not what protects
  the PDF case.
- What does is the allowlist plus the browser's own PDF sandbox, where PDF
  JavaScript has no DOM and no cookies.

Range requests were verified end to end: 206 with a correct Content-Range,
a byte-perfect file reassembled from three ranges, and a real browser
seeking to 10s of a 20s clip. nginx drops the upstream Content-Length on
the X-Accel path, so there is no collision.

Two settings, both defaulting on so no installation loses what it has:
clients_can_preview_files and public_listing_preview_enabled. Staff are
never gated. The anonymous side needed a route of its own — there was no
public preview endpoint — with its own throttle bucket, since a bare
throttle: shares one counter across that whole block.

A preview now logs at most one FilePreviewed per viewer per file per five
minutes: a <video> turns one deliberate act into a long tail of Range
requests, and a row each would bury the log.

Also fixes a layout bug the tests could never catch. A portal file row was
flex justify-between with three children — name, comment trigger, download
— so the middle one settled wherever the name happened to end and the
comment icon sat at a different place on every row. The name block now
takes the slack and every action lives in one trailing group, with the
comment trigger in a fixed-width slot so the icons form a column. And
because half the previewable files have no thumbnail to click — a PDF, an
mp3 and an mp4 all render as a generic icon — every row gains an explicit
PreviewAction beside DownloadAction, matching whatever style that theme
gives its download control.

ignacionelson 6e47d76ba6 ProjectSend 2.0.0
Client file sharing, rebuilt from the ground up: a private area per
client, resumable uploads, folders, groups and categories, sharing with
expiry dates and download limits, comments, file versions, an activity
log, a REST API, and sixteen languages.

This repository begins here. ProjectSend 2 was developed privately, and
that development history is not published — the previous generation
remains available, with its own history, at projectsend/legacy.
