Sweep of defensive hardening across the core layers plus a related popout
overlay regression that surfaced during verification.
Database integrity (core/db.py)
- Wrap delete_site, add_search_history, remove_folder, rename_folder,
and _migrate in `with self.conn:` so partial commits can't leave
orphan rows on a crash mid-method.
- add_bookmark re-SELECTs the existing id when INSERT OR IGNORE
collides on (site_id, post_id). Was returning Bookmark(id=0)
silently, which then no-op'd update_bookmark_cache_path the next
time the post was bookmarked.
- get_bookmarks LIKE clauses now ESCAPE '%', '_', '\\' so user search
literals stop acting as SQL wildcards (cat_ear no longer matches
catear).
Path traversal (core/db.py + core/config.py)
- Validate folder names at write time via _validate_folder_name —
rejects '..', os.sep, leading '.' / '~'. Permits Unicode/spaces/
parens so existing folders keep working.
- saved_folder_dir() resolves the candidate path and refuses anything
that doesn't relative_to the saved-images base. Defense in depth
against folder strings that bypass the write-time validator.
- gui/bookmarks.py and gui/app.py wrap add_folder calls in try/except
ValueError and surface a QMessageBox.warning instead of crashing.
Download safety (core/cache.py)
- New _do_download(): payloads >=50MB stream to a tempfile in the
destination dir and atomically os.replace into place; smaller
payloads keep the existing buffer-then-write fast path. Both
enforce a 500MB hard cap against the advertised Content-Length AND
the running total inside the chunk loop (servers can lie).
- Per-URL asyncio.Lock coalesces concurrent downloads of the same
URL so two callers don't race write_bytes on the same path.
- Image.MAX_IMAGE_PIXELS = 256M with DecompressionBombError handling
in both converters.
- _convert_ugoira_to_gif checks frame count + cumulative uncompressed
size against UGOIRA_MAX_FRAMES / UGOIRA_MAX_UNCOMPRESSED_BYTES from
ZipInfo headers BEFORE decompressing — defends against zip bombs.
- _convert_animated_to_gif writes a .convfailed sentinel sibling on
failure to break the re-decode-on-every-paint loop for malformed
animated PNGs/WebPs.
- _is_valid_media returns True (don't delete) on OSError so a
transient EBUSY/permissions hiccup no longer triggers a delete +
re-download loop on every access.
- _referer_for() uses proper hostname suffix matching, not substring
`in` (imgblahgelbooru.attacker.com no longer maps to gelbooru.com).
- PIL handles wrapped in `with` blocks for deterministic cleanup.
API client retry + visibility (core/api/*)
- base.py: _request retries on httpx.NetworkError + ConnectError in
addition to TimeoutException. test_connection no longer echoes the
HTTP response body in the error string (it was an SSRF body-leak
gadget when used via detect_site_type's redirect-following client).
- detect.py + danbooru.py + e621.py + gelbooru.py + moebooru.py:
every previously-swallowed exception in search/autocomplete/probe
paths now logs at WARNING with type, message, and (where relevant)
the response body prefix. Debugging "the site isn't working" used
to be a total blackout.
main_gui.py
- file_dialog_platform DB probe failure prints to stderr instead of
vanishing.
Popout overlay (gui/preview.py + gui/app.py)
- preview.py:79,141 — setAttribute(WA_StyledBackground, True) on
_slideshow_toolbar and _slideshow_controls. Plain QWidget parents
silently ignore QSS `background:` declarations without this
attribute, which is why the popout overlay strip was rendering
fully transparent (buttons styled, bar behind them showing the
letterbox color).
- app.py: bake _BASE_POPOUT_OVERLAY_QSS as a fallback prepended
before the user's custom.qss in the loader. Custom themes that
don't define overlay rules now still get a translucent black
bar with white text + hairline borders. Bundled themes win on
tie because their identical-specificity rules come last in the
prepended string.
- tag_categories stored as JSON in library_meta table
- Library and Bookmarks info panels show categorized tags
- Bookmarks falls back to library_meta for categories
- Added Unsave from Library to bookmarks right-click menu
- Renamed "Copy Image to Clipboard" to "Copy File to Clipboard"
- Works for images AND videos via wl-copy with correct MIME types
- Added to grid, preview, bookmarks, and library context menus
- Ctrl+C shortcut works globally
- Qt fallback for non-Wayland systems
Major restructure of the favorites/library system:
- Rename "Favorites" to "Bookmarks" throughout (DB API, GUI, signals)
- Add Library tab for browsing saved files on disk with sorting
- Decouple bookmark from save — independent operations now
- Two indicators on thumbnails: star (bookmarked), green dot (saved)
- Both indicators QSS-controllable (qproperty-bookmarkedColor/savedColor)
- Unbookmarking no longer deletes saved files
- Saving no longer auto-bookmarks
- Library tab: folder sidebar, sort by date/name/size, async thumbnails
- DB table kept as "favorites" internally for migration safety
