The GraphQL `-1` ("Load All") is an intentional dashboard feature, so I can't forbid it — the real bugs are the integer underflow on other negatives and unbounded nested queries. Let me check the frontend deps and template/CSP feasibility before editing.

if statement can be modernized using max


The linter suggests using `max`. Let me apply that:


		p := page.Page
		if p < 1 {
			p = 1
		}
		limit := uint64(page.ItemsPerPage)

		p := max(page.Page, 1)
		limit := uint64(page.ItemsPerPage)


		p := page.Page
		if p < 1 {
			p = 1
		}
		limit := uint64(page.ItemsPerPage)

		p := max(page.Page, 1)
		limit := uint64(page.ItemsPerPage)

return nil, fmt.Errorf("invalid items-per-page value: %d", page.ItemsPerPage)

query = query.Offset((uint64(p) - 1) * limit).Limit(limit)


Now parameterize the SQL in `tags.go`:


	// Build scope list for filtering

	scopeBuilder.WriteString(`"global"`)
	if user != nil {

	}

Now let me build and test the backend:

Build and vet backend


BUILD OK


go test ./internal/repository/... ./internal/api/... ./cmd/... 2>&1 | tail -25

Run backend tests

Frontend builds cleanly (only benign Svelte circular-dep warnings).

One audit item remains — CSRF defense-in-depth. SameSite=Lax already covers the classic case, but let me add a safe, fail-open `Sec-Fetch-Site` check that blocks cross-site state-changing requests without affecting non-browser API clients:


Edit

	})

	// SPA are unaffected.
	s.router.Use(func(next http.Handler) http.Handler {
		return http.HandlerFunc(func(rw http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
			switch r.Method {
			case http.MethodGet, http.MethodHead, http.MethodOptions, http.MethodTrace:

	})

	s.restAPIHandle = api.New()

All medium-severity items are fixed. Backend builds, `go vet` is clean, all tests pass, and the frontend bundle rebuilds successfully.

## Medium-severity fixes

**1. GraphQL DoS + unbounded pagination** — `cmd/cc-backend/server.go`, `internal/repository/jobQuery.go`, `internal/api/job.go`
- Added `extension.FixedComplexityLimit(5000)` to bound nested/aliased query cost.
- Hardened `QueryJobs`: rejects non-positive `items-per-page` (except the `-1` "load all" sentinel) so `uint64()` can't underflow into a giant limit; clamps `page` to ≥1 to avoid offset underflow.
- REST `getJobs` now returns `400` for `page`/`items-per-page` < 1 instead of passing them downstream. (GraphQL `-1` "Load All" is preserved — it's an intentional dashboard feature; the underflow guard still protects against other negatives.)

**2. Missing security headers** — `cmd/cc-backend/server.go`
- Added `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, `Referrer-Policy: same-origin`, and a conservative CSP (`frame-ancestors 'none'; object-src 'none'; base-uri 'self'`). I deliberately kept the CSP non-script-restrictive so it can't break the self-hosted SPA's inline scripts — a full `script-src` policy needs per-template nonces and is best done as a separate, tested change.

**3. Stored XSS via admin note** — `web/frontend/src/Job.root.svelte`, `JobFootprint.svelte`
- Replaced both `{@html job.metaData.message}` sinks with escaped text in a `white-space: pre-wrap` span — kills script execution while preserving line-break readability. No new dependency (no DOMPurify in the project).

**4. SQL identity-value interpolation** — `internal/repository/tags.go`
- Parameterized the tag-scope `IN` list (was concatenating `user.Username`) via `sq.Eq`, and the manager project subquery (was `strings.Join`) via a `?`-placeholder list. Also fixed a latent bug: a manager with no projects now correctly counts own jobs instead of generating `IN ("")`.

**5. CSRF defense-in-depth** — `cmd/cc-backend/server.go`
- Added a `Sec-Fetch-Site: cross-site` block on state-changing methods. It fails open when the header is absent, so non-browser API clients (schedulers, cc-metric-store, curl) and the same-origin SPA are unaffected; it only blocks attacker-origin browser requests, complementing the existing SameSite=Lax cookie.

I haven't committed. Want these as one commit (same style as before), or split (e.g. backend hardening vs. frontend XSS)?


Yes commit the changes


git add cmd/cc-backend/server.go internal/api/job.go internal/repository/jobQuery.go internal/repository/tags.go web/frontend/src/Job.root.svelte web/frontend/src/generic/helper/JobFootprint.svelte && git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
Fix medium-severity issues from follow-up security audit

Addresses the remaining medium findings from the second-pass audit:

- DoS hardening: bound GraphQL query cost with FixedComplexityLimit, and
  reject non-positive items-per-page / page values so uint64 conversion
  cannot underflow into an unbounded LIMIT/OFFSET. The -1 "load all"
  sentinel stays valid for dashboards; REST now returns 400 for bad input.

- Security headers: add X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options,
  Referrer-Policy and a conservative CSP (frame-ancestors/object-src/
  base-uri) that hardens against clickjacking and base-tag injection
  without restricting the self-hosted SPA's inline scripts.

- Stored XSS: render job.metaData.message as escaped text instead of
  {@html ...} in Job.root and JobFootprint, preserving line breaks via
  white-space: pre-wrap.

- SQL injection hardening: parameterize the tag-scope IN list and the
  manager project subquery in CountTags instead of interpolating
  user.Username / user.Projects (externally sourced via OIDC/LDAP).

- CSRF defense-in-depth: reject cross-site state-changing requests via
  Sec-Fetch-Site, failing open for non-browser clients, on top of the
  existing SameSite=Lax session cookie.
