An air-gapped site cannot be scanned from anywhere else, so when a CVE lands the
only way to answer 'is that component here, and at what version' was to RDP in
and go looking. The frontend was the real blind spot: nothing recorded which
version of leaflet, dompurify, jspdf or html2canvas ends up inside the compiled
SPA.
scripts/generate_sbom.py emits CycloneDX 1.6 covering both ecosystems - every pin
in requirements.txt with the sha256 the installer enforces, and every package in
package-lock.json. Build-only npm packages are marked scope 'excluded' rather
than dropped, so 'not here' stays distinguishable from 'not looked for'.
Dependency edges are real: uv's '# via' comments give the Python graph and
package-lock gives the npm one.
Hand-rolled rather than cyclonedx-py plus cyclonedx-npm because both inputs are
already pinned and committed - this is a format translation, not a scan - and
because the build box may be a work PC with nothing but Python and Node. It is
deterministic by construction: same inputs, byte-identical output, so
regenerating does not churn.
Staged into the application tree by both builders, so it installs onto the
server with the app. shopdb-admin.ps1 verify reports it and searches it by
component name, which is the question actually being asked.
Packages appearing at several depths in package-lock (node_modules/vite and
node_modules/vitest/node_modules/vite) are merged, and a copy reachable outside
the dev tree makes the component count as shipped. Emitting both produced
duplicate bom-refs, which CycloneDX forbids and scanners reject; getting the dev
merge backwards would have hidden a shipped package from a CVE search.
Not covered by bundle-lock.json on purpose: its provenance is git, not the
third-party payload.
IIS does not set X-Forwarded-For on its own and HttpPlatformHandler connects
from loopback, so without a rewrite rule every client reads as 127.0.0.1. The
GE-Enforce IP allowlist, the dashboard visitor-location lookup and per-host
login rate limiting all stop working, silently. The rule needed URL Rewrite,
which the installer told operators to download - from an air-gapped server.
URL Rewrite now ships in the bundle, and the wizard asks which case applies,
because the two answers are mutually exclusive. Directly exposed: install it and
set X-Forwarded-For from REMOTE_ADDR, which is what stops a client spoofing its
own. Behind a proxy: leave the rule off, since REMOTE_ADDR is the proxy and
applying it would discard the real client IP.
The rule is enabled by deleting two explicit marker lines rather than by a regex
over the surrounding comment, so editing that prose cannot silently disable it.
An existing web.config is no longer overwritten. It is the one file on a server
that legitimately carries hand-edits, and replacing it reverted them without a
word - on a server where the X-Forwarded-For rule had been enabled by hand, that
alone would have turned the GE-Enforce IP allowlist off. The installer reports
what it found instead.
pip now runs with --require-hashes and --only-binary=:all:. Hash-checking is
requested explicitly rather than inferred from the lockfile, so shipping an
unhashed requirements.txt fails loudly instead of quietly dropping the check.
shopdb-admin.ps1 gains a verify command: which bundle this server was installed
from, and whether the installed packages still match what shipped.
The .iss states its compiler floor. WizardStyle uses the built-in windows11
custom style, which needs Inno Setup 6.6.0; older compilers now fail with that
sentence rather than 'WizardStyle is invalid'.
Roughly 2500 lines of tested installer had been living in ~/Downloads and an
untracked folder - nothing was under version control.
It goes here rather than in a repo of its own because it depends on application
internals: the `flask plugin` verbs, site-profile.json, MOUNT_PATH, and the
plugin registry. Versioned separately it would drift out of step with the thing
it installs.
Contents: the read-only preflight, the staged installer (bundled MySQL, runtime,
schema, IIS, verify, uninstall), the operator console, the Inno Setup wizard, the
bundle builder and the artwork generator.
bundle/ and Output/ are ignored - regenerable, and ~220MB. plugins.iss is ignored
because build-installer.sh generates it from the staged payload. The artwork IS
committed so a Windows build box does not need Python and cairosvg.
Verified end to end on Windows Server 2025 against a bundled MySQL 8.0 and an
existing MySQL 5.6: fresh install, upgrade with backup and rollback, re-run
idempotency, uninstall, and both deployment methods including switching between
them. Not yet verified: a hypervisor-level air-gapped run, and any load from a
real browser (every HTTP check so far used curl, which sends no Origin header).
