Pre-Deployment Checklist ```bash # ✅ Verify builds succeed cd frontend && npm run build cd ../backend && node -c routes/*.js # ✅ Check Docker build (if using Docker) docker-compose build # ✅ Set environment variables export JWT_SECRET="your-secure-random-string-minimum-32-chars" export NODE_ENV="production" ``` ### 2. Deploy Backend ```bash # Copy files to production server rsync -av backend/ production:/app/backend/ # Or if using Docker docker-compose up -d --build ``` ### 3. Deploy Frontend ```bash # Build frontend cd frontend && npm run build # Copy dist folder to production rsync -av dist/ production:/app/frontend/dist/ ``` ### 4. Restart Services ```bash # If using Docker docker-compose restart # Or if using systemd sudo systemctl restart streamflow-backend sudo systemctl restart streamflow-frontend # Or if using PM2 pm2 restart all ``` ### 5. Verify Deployment ```bash # Test backend health curl https://your-domain.com/api/auth/security-status # Test frontend curl https://your-domain.com # Check session API curl https://your-domain.com/api/sessions/my-sessions \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" # Verify cookies (in browser DevTools) # Should see: HttpOnly=true, Secure=true, SameSite=Strict ``` ## Environment Variables ### Required ```bash # CRITICAL: Set a strong, unique secret JWT_SECRET=your_unique_secure_random_string_minimum_32_characters ``` ### Optional (with defaults) ```bash # Session duration (default: 7d) JWT_EXPIRES_IN=7d # Environment (affects cookie security) NODE_ENV=production # Rate limiting (defaults shown) RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_MS=900000 RATE_LIMIT_MAX_REQUESTS=100 ``` ## Session Configuration Edit `backend/utils/passwordPolicy.js` if you want to change: ```javascript const SESSION_POLICY = { maxConcurrentSessions: 3, // Change if needed absoluteTimeout: 24, // Hours (change if needed) idleTimeout: 2, // Hours (change if needed) refreshTokenRotation: true }; ``` ## Post-Deployment Testing ### 1. Test Login & Cookie ```bash # Login and check response curl -i -X POST https://your-domain.com/api/auth/login \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"username":"test","password":"password"}' # Look for: Set-Cookie header with HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Strict ``` ### 2. Test Session Management 1. Login from browser 2. Navigate to Settings → Session Management 3. Verify you see your current session 4. Login from another device/browser 5. Verify you see multiple sessions 6. Try terminating a session 7. Verify terminated session gets 401 on next request ### 3. Test Idle Timeout 1. Login 2. Wait 2+ hours without activity 3. Make any API request 4. Should receive 401 with `sessionExpired: true` ### 4. Test Input Validation 1. Try adding a playlist with XSS: `` 2. Should be sanitized to: `alert('xss')` 3. Check security audit logs for validation events ### 5. Test Logout ```bash curl -X POST https://your-domain.com/api/auth/logout \ -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" # Should return: {"message": "Logout successful"} # Cookie should be cleared ``` ## Monitoring ### Check Session Count ```bash # Login to database sqlite3 /path/to/streamflow.db # Query active sessions SELECT u.username, COUNT(s.id) as session_count FROM active_sessions s JOIN users u ON s.user_id = u.id GROUP BY u.id; ``` ### Check Security Audit Logs ```sql -- Recent security events SELECT * FROM security_audit_log ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 100; -- Failed login attempts SELECT * FROM security_audit_log WHERE event_type = 'login_attempt' AND status = 'failed' ORDER BY created_at DESC; -- Session events SELECT * FROM security_audit_log WHERE event_type LIKE '%session%' ORDER BY created_at DESC; ``` ## Rollback Plan If issues occur: ```bash # 1. Revert backend git checkout HEAD~1 backend/ # 2. Revert frontend git checkout HEAD~1 frontend/ # 3. Rebuild and restart docker-compose up -d --build # Or pm2 restart all ``` ## Common Issues & Solutions ### Issue: Cookies not working **Solution:** - Verify `NODE_ENV=production` is set - Ensure HTTPS is enabled in production - Check `secure` flag in cookie settings ### Issue: Sessions expire too quickly **Solution:** - Increase `SESSION_POLICY.idleTimeout` in `passwordPolicy.js` - Restart backend services ### Issue: Users can't login **Solution:** - Check JWT_SECRET is set correctly - Verify database has active_sessions table - Check backend logs for errors ### Issue: Frontend build fails **Solution:** - Run `npm install` in frontend directory - Check for TypeScript/JSX syntax errors - Verify all imports are correct ### Issue: Rate limiting too aggressive **Solution:** - Adjust rate limits in route files - Or set environment variables for global limits ## Success Indicators ✅ All features working: - [ ] Users can login and receive cookies - [ ] Session UI shows active sessions - [ ] Users can terminate sessions - [ ] Idle timeout triggers after 2 hours - [ ] Input validation blocks XSS/SQL injection - [ ] Security notifications appear for blocked attacks - [ ] Logout clears session and cookie - [ ] Admin can view all sessions ✅ Builds successful: - [ ] Frontend: `npm run build` completes without errors - [ ] Backend: All route files pass syntax check - [ ] Docker: `docker-compose build` succeeds ✅ No errors in logs: - [ ] Backend logs show no errors on startup - [ ] Frontend console shows no errors - [ ] Database queries execute successfully ## Support ### Documentation - 📖 Input Validation: `docs/INPUT_VALIDATION_SECURITY.md` - 📖 Session Management: `docs/SESSION_MANAGEMENT_SECURITY.md` - 📖 Complete Summary: `docs/SECURITY_IMPLEMENTATION_COMPLETE.md` ### Debugging - Check backend logs: `docker logs streamflow-backend` or `pm2 logs` - Check frontend console in browser DevTools - Query security_audit_log table for events - Enable debug logging in `backend/utils/logger.js` ### Contact For issues, check: 1. Application logs 2. Security audit logs 3. Database active_sessions table 4. Browser DevTools Network/Console tabs --- **Status:** ✅ Production Ready **Version:** 1.0 **Date:** 2024 All security features are implemented, tested, and ready for production deployment.
