feat: implement critical security fixes for SQL injection and authentication vulnerabilities
Security Enhancements:
- Fix SQL injection vulnerabilities by replacing whereRaw queries with parameterized queries
- Add LIKE pattern escaping to prevent SQL injection in search functionality
- Implement account lockout protection (5 failed attempts = 30 min lockout)
- Add comprehensive login attempt tracking and audit trail
- Enhance JWT tokens with issuer validation, IP tracking, and password change detection
- Add logout endpoint and session management
- Prevent user enumeration with generic error messages

Database Changes:
- Add login_attempts table for authentication tracking
- Add security columns to admin_users (password_changed_at, last_login_ip, two_factor_enabled)

New Security Features:
- Brute force protection with configurable lockout duration
- Automatic cleanup of old login attempts
- Enhanced authentication middleware with stricter validation
- Monitoring scripts for security health checks

All fixes are backward compatible and production-ready with rollback plans included.

SQL Injection Fix Rollback Plan

Overview

This document provides a rollback plan in case the SQL injection fixes cause issues in production.

Changes Made

  1. Created: backend/src/utils/sqlSecurity.js - Central security utilities
  2. Modified: backend/src/routes/adminDashboard.js - Replaced whereRaw with parameterized queries
  3. Modified: backend/src/routes/adminPhotos.js - Added LIKE pattern escaping
  4. Modified: backend/src/routes/adminEvents.js - Added LIKE pattern escaping

Quick Rollback Steps

Step 1: Revert Code Changes

If issues occur, run these commands to revert:

# Navigate to backend directory
cd backend

# Revert specific files
git checkout HEAD -- src/routes/adminDashboard.js
git checkout HEAD -- src/routes/adminPhotos.js
git checkout HEAD -- src/routes/adminEvents.js

# Remove the new security utility file
rm src/utils/sqlSecurity.js

Step 2: Restart Services

# If using Docker
docker-compose restart backend

# If using PM2
pm2 restart picpeak-backend

Verification After Rollback

  1. Check admin dashboard loads: /admin/dashboard
  2. Test event search functionality
  3. Test photo search functionality
  4. Verify analytics charts display correctly

Symptoms That May Require Rollback

  1. Dashboard Statistics Not Loading

    • Empty or NaN values in stats
    • Analytics charts not rendering
  2. Search Features Broken

    • Event search returns no results
    • Photo search returns errors
    • Special characters in search causing issues
  3. Date Filtering Issues

    • Activity logs not showing correct date ranges
    • Analytics showing incorrect time periods

Safe Testing Before Production

  1. Test in Development First:

    cd backend
    npm run dev
    
  2. Test Key Features:

    • Admin dashboard stats: http://localhost:3001/api/admin/dashboard/stats
    • Analytics: http://localhost:3001/api/admin/dashboard/analytics?days=7
    • Event search: http://localhost:3001/api/admin/events?search=test
    • Photo search: http://localhost:3001/api/admin/events/1/photos?search=test
  3. Monitor Logs:

    # Docker logs
    docker-compose logs -f backend
    
    # PM2 logs
    pm2 logs picpeak-backend
    

Emergency Contacts

  • Keep database backups before deploying
  • Have monitoring alerts for 500 errors
  • Document any custom SQL queries in use

Post-Rollback Actions

If rollback is needed:

  1. Document the specific issue encountered
  2. Create test cases for the failure scenario
  3. Fix the issue in development
  4. Re-test thoroughly before re-deploying
