- Forgot Password is limited to 3 codes an hour and 10 a day per email, and
an account gets 10 failed code checks a day across every code it is sent,
so new client addresses and new codes no longer buy more guesses. Refused
requests answer exactly like accepted ones.
- The reset email is queued to a background sender, and unregistered
addresses store a row no code can match, so both paths do the same work
and return without waiting on the mail provider. Each request also clears
expired codes.
- Code hashes are HMAC-SHA256 under a key derived with HKDF from the JWT
signing secret; rows in the previous unkeyed format stop matching.
- Email and code are read only from the JSON body.
Forgot Password answers every address the same way and emails a code only
to an active account. Codes are stored as salted SHA-256 hashes, expire 15
minutes after issue, are replaced by a newer request, and are checked only
against the email they were issued to. Five failed checks delete the code;
attempts are reserved with one conditional UPDATE so concurrent guesses
cannot exceed the budget. VerificationCode requires the email, and email and
code are accepted in the JSON body so they stay out of URLs.
The three anonymous endpoints are rate limited to 10 requests per 15
minutes per client IP. Forwarded headers are trusted only through loopback
and private hops, since the API sits behind the EB load balancer and nginx.
The migration adds hash, salt, expiry and attempt columns and deletes the
old plaintext rows.
Both hosts now apply the same Identity password rule: at least 6 characters
with one uppercase letter, one number and one special character. Change
password requires an authenticated caller, verifies the current password
before evaluating the new one, and reports a policy rejection separately
from a wrong current password.

* fix(backend): sanitize exception disclosure in changed API endpoints
Replace raw exception-message disclosure (ex.Message) returned to API
callers with a stable sanitized public message plus correlated structured
internal logging, across the endpoints changed in this PR.
- Add SanitizedErrors helper: logs the original exception at Error with a
generated correlation id and returns a stable public message referencing
it so support can trace without exposing internals.
- Inject ILogger<T> into the 14 changed controllers and route every
ex.Message/dbex.Message disclosure through the helper, preserving status
codes, response shapes, and business data (e.g. OpenWorkOrders).
- Leave FluentValidation (vex.Errors) and existing fixed-message catches
untouched; out-of-scope controllers (Account/Contact/Employee/Asset/
PMSchedule) are unchanged.
- Add focused tests proving internal exception text is not returned and
that Error logging carrying the original exception is invoked.
* fix(architecture): abstract job run state access
* style: format board update service
* test: use collection assertion idiom
- Remove inline SMTP method with codevoir.com credentials
- Inject existing SendMessage helper that uses SendGrid via config
- Clean up unused using directives
