[Unreleased]

v1.15.0

Zenos yae Galvus

Yes...the coming days promise to be most interesting. Most interesting.

Headline changes:

• ed25519 signing keys for Anubis can be stored in the flag --ed25519-private-key-hex or envvar ED25519_PRIVATE_KEY_HEX; if one is not provided when Anubis starts, a new one is generated and logged
• Add the ability to set the cookie domain with the envvar COOKIE_DOMAIN=techaro.lol for all domains under techaro.lol
• Add the ability to set the cookie partitioned flag with the envvar COOKIE_PARTITIONED=true

Many other small changes were made, including but not limited to:

• Fixed and clarified installation instructions
• Introduced integration tests using Playwright
• Refactor & Split up Anubis into cmd and lib.go
• Fixed bot check to only apply if address range matches
• Fix default difficulty setting that was broken in a refactor
• Linting fixes
• Make dark mode diff lines readable in the documentation
• Fix CI based browser smoke test

Users running Anubis' test suite may run into issues with the integration tests on Windows hosts. This is a known issue and will be fixed at some point in the future. In the meantime, use the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

v1.14.2

Livia sas Junius: Echo 2

• Remove default RSS reader rule as it may allow for a targeted attack against rails apps #67
• Whitelist MojeekBot in botPolicies #47
• botPolicies regex has been cleaned up #66

v1.14.1

Livia sas Junius: Echo 1

• Set the X-Real-Ip header based on the contents of X-Forwarded-For #62

v1.14.0

Livia sas Junius

Fail to do as my lord commands...and I will spare him the trouble of blocking you.

• Add explanation of what Anubis is doing to the challenge page #25

• Administrators can now define artificially hard challenges using the "slow" algorithm:

  {
    "name": "generic-bot-catchall",
    "user_agent_regex": "(?i:bot|crawler)",
    "action": "CHALLENGE",
    "challenge": {
      "difficulty": 16,
      "report_as": 4,
      "algorithm": "slow"
    }
  }
  

  This allows administrators to cause particularly malicious clients to use unreasonable amounts of CPU. The UI will also lie to the client about the difficulty.

• Docker images now explicitly call docker.io/library/<thing> to increase compatibility with Podman et. al #21

• Don't overflow the image when browser windows are small (eg. on phones) #27

• Lower the default difficulty to 4 from 5

• Don't duplicate work across multiple threads #36

• Documentation has been moved to https://anubis.techaro.lol/ with sources in docs/

• Removed several visible AI artifacts (e.g., 6 fingers) #37

• KagiBot is allowed through the filter #44

• Fixed hang when navigator.hardwareConcurrency is undefined

• Support Unix domain sockets #45

• Allow filtering by remote addresses:

  {
    "name": "qwantbot",
    "user_agent_regex": "\\+https\\:\\/\\/help\\.qwant\\.com/bot/",
    "action": "ALLOW",
    "remote_addresses": ["91.242.162.0/24"]
  }
  

  This also works at an IP range level:

  {
    "name": "internal-network",
    "action": "ALLOW",
    "remote_addresses": ["100.64.0.0/10"]
  }

• Docker images are now built with the timestamp set to the commit timestamp
• The README now points to TecharoHQ/anubis instead of Xe/x
• Images are built using ko instead of docker buildx build #13

1.12.1

• Phrasing in the <noscript> warning was replaced from its original placeholder text to something more suitable for general consumption (fd6903a).
• Footer links on the check page now point to Techaro's brand (4ebccb1)
• Anubis was imported from Xe/x.
