Allow Admin users to temporarily view the app as another user to verify
permissions and team scoping without switching accounts.
Backend:
- Migration: add impersonate_user_id column to sessions table
- requireAuth(): when impersonation is active, override req.user with
target user's identity; store real admin identity in req.realUser
- POST /api/auth/impersonate: start impersonation (Admin only, cannot
impersonate self or other Admins)
- POST /api/auth/stop-impersonate: end impersonation, revert to real user
- GET /api/auth/me: returns impersonating flag and realUser when active
- Audit logging on impersonate start/stop
Frontend:
- AuthContext: add impersonating, realUser state; startImpersonation()
and stopImpersonation() helpers
- ImpersonationBanner: fixed amber banner showing target user identity
with Exit button
- UserManagement: Eye icon button on each non-Admin user row to start
View As (visible only to Admin, hidden for self and other Admins)
- App.js: mount ImpersonationBanner at top of authenticated view
- All 16 route files now import pool from ../db directly
- Removed db parameter from all factory functions
- All callbacks replaced with async/await pool.query()
- All ? placeholders converted to $1, $2... numbered params
- datetime('now') → NOW(), INSERT OR IGNORE → ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING
- LIKE → ILIKE for case-insensitive searches
- Error detection: err.code === '23505' for unique violations
- server.js no longer passes pool/db/requireAuth to route factories
- Only ivantiFindings.js still receives pool (pending task 8 rewrite)
- Add bu_teams column to users table (migration + fresh schema)
- Create shared KNOWN_TEAMS constant and validateTeams helper
- Expose user teams in auth middleware, login, and /me responses
- Add bu_teams CRUD to user management routes with audit logging
- Make Ivanti FINDINGS_FILTERS configurable via IVANTI_BU_FILTER env var
- Add query-time team filtering to GET /findings and /findings/counts
- Update AuthContext with teams helpers and admin scope toggle
- Create AdminScopeToggle component (My Teams / All BUs)
- Scope ReportingPage findings fetch by user teams
- Scope CompliancePage team selector by user teams
- Scope ExportsPage findings exports by user teams
- Add BU teams multi-select to UserManagement create/edit forms
- Display team badges in user list table
- Replace role-based docs with group-based (Admin, Standard_User, Leadership, Read_Only)
- Update API reference with correct group requirements and new endpoints (JIRA tickets, archive, todo-queue)
- Remove hardcoded default credentials from installation instructions
- Document SESSION_SECRET as required with generation instructions
- Add new migrations to install sequence (archive, timestamps, counts history, user_groups, created_by)
- Update architecture tree with new files (ivantiArchive, ComplianceChartsPanel, etc.)
- Update security model with rate limiting, sandbox iframe, rehype-sanitize, Content-Disposition sanitization
- Update database schema docs with created_by columns, user_group triggers, cascade deletes
- Fix middleware reference from requireRole to requireGroup
- Remove stale admin123 references throughout
Bugs fixed:
- knowledgeBase.js: logAudit calls converted from positional args to object signature
- archerTickets.js: targetType/targetId renamed to entityType/entityId
- server.js: single CVE delete now has cascade/compliance check for Standard_User
Unprotected endpoints secured:
- ivantiTodoQueue.js: POST/PUT/DELETE now require Admin or Standard_User
- ivantiFindings.js: PUT note and POST sync now require Admin or Standard_User
- compliance.js: POST notes now requires Admin or Standard_User
- ivantiWorkflows.js: POST sync now requires Admin or Standard_User
- auth.js: cleanup-sessions now requires Admin via requireAuth + requireGroup
Additional fixes:
- ExportsPage.js: canExport() guard blocks Read_Only users
- knowledgeBase.js: Standard_User delete checks created_by ownership
- Migration: added INSERT/UPDATE triggers to enforce valid user_group values
