kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 d89c74feab feat(security): harden PHP services and proxy response headers
Proxy:
- server_tokens off, X-Powered-By stripped from upstream responses,
  HSTS max-age raised to one year.
- No global X-Content-Type-Options: under nosniff, ORB (step 3.4)
  blocks no-cors cross-origin responses typed text/html, e.g. tracking
  beacons answered with an empty 204.

PHP (CVE-2026-109618, CVE-2026-109619):
- New role sys-svc-compose-php installs a shared ini (expose_php Off,
  session.upload_progress.enabled 0, fatal_error_backtraces 0 for
  PHP 8.5, interim memory_limit -1) and a PHP-FPM [www] drop-in
  (pm.max_requests = PHP_FPM_MAX_REQUESTS) once per stack host,
  before 04_files renders any compose file.
- The host file names carry a sha1 prefix of the controller-side
  source, so a content change alters every PHP app's compose.yml and
  recreates it, also on remote deploys where compose_volumes cannot
  read the stack host file and hashes the path instead.
- 20 PHP roles mount the ini as a compose/swarm config into their
  image's scan dir; moodle, nextcloud and shopware also mount the FPM
  drop-in. Magento keeps its own pool: its php-fpm.conf has no
  include= and is rendered without notify.
- Joomla's php-upload.ini now loads as zzz-joomla-uploads.ini so its
  own memory_limit wins: the media API compares Content-Length with
  toBytes(memory_limit) and rejects every upload at -1.

TODOs record the memory_limit revert condition and accepted
trade-offs, Akaunting on PHP 8.1, FusionDirectory on PHP 7.4 and the
public Keycloak admin console.

Akaunting

Description

This Ansible role sets up and manages Akaunting, an innovative online accounting software, using Docker and Docker Compose. Empower your financial management with Akaunting, a dynamic and feature-rich accounting platform designed to simplify your bookkeeping and boost your business growth. Enjoy intuitive tools, real-time insights, and an energetic approach to your finances.

For detailed administration and troubleshooting, see Administration.md.

Overview

This role provides a comprehensive Dockerized environment for running Akaunting. It deploys the Akaunting application alongside a MariaDB database, configures environment variables, and integrates with NGINX as a reverse proxy. This setup is ideal for both production and development environments.

Key Features

  • Complete Dockerized Deployment: Uses Docker Compose to run Akaunting and its associated database.
  • Environment Configuration: Automatically creates and configures the necessary environment files.
  • NGINX Integration: Sets up NGINX for handling domain-specific requests and SSL termination.
  • Manual Update and Log Access: Provides guidance for viewing logs, accessing containers, and performing manual updates.

Cosmos

The diagram places Akaunting in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

Features

  • Automated provisioning: Configured by Ansible without manual steps.

Quick Setup

Development

Clone, set up the workstation, and deploy Akaunting onto the local stack:

git clone https://github.com/infinito-nexus/core.git
cd core
make onboard
make compose-deploy mode=reinstall apps=web-app-akaunting full_cycle=false

Production

Run the published image to provision the inventory and deploy Akaunting to a managed server (the mounted volume persists the inventory):

APP=web-app-akaunting
HOST=<your-server>
DOMAIN=<your-domain>
TLS_MODE=self_signed
SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="<your-ssh-public-key>"

docker run --rm -it \
  -v "$PWD/inventories:/etc/infinito.nexus/inventories" \
  -e APP="$APP" -e HOST="$HOST" -e DOMAIN="$DOMAIN" -e TLS_MODE="$TLS_MODE" -e SSH_PUBLIC_KEY="$SSH_PUBLIC_KEY" \
  ghcr.io/infinito-nexus/core/debian bash -c '
    INVENTORY=/etc/infinito.nexus/inventories/production
    infinito administration inventory provision "$INVENTORY" \
      --inventory-file "$INVENTORY/devices.yml" \
      --host "$HOST" \
      --include "$APP" \
      --vars "{\"TLS_MODE\": \"$TLS_MODE\", \"DOMAIN_PRIMARY\": \"$DOMAIN\", \"users\": {\"administrator\": {\"authorized_keys\": [\"$SSH_PUBLIC_KEY\"]}}}" &&
    infinito administration deploy dedicated "$INVENTORY/devices.yml" \
      --password-file "$INVENTORY/.password" \
      --diff -vv'
