With TRUSTED_PROXIES empty behind the reverse proxy production is
required to run behind, every login POST keyed on the proxy's address
and shared one 5/minute bucket. A stranger sending five POSTs a
minute -- 0.08 requests per second, from anywhere -- kept that bucket
permanently full, and the operator's own correct password was answered
429 indefinitely with no second administrative path.
The login POST no longer has a pre-emptive limiter. The handler
verifies credentials first and spends budget only on a FAILED attempt,
so a correct password is never throttled whatever the counters hold.
Three things follow, and are implemented together because the first is
unsafe without the other two:
- Failures are counted per (client bucket, submitted username), five
per minute, after which further failures get 429 with a Retry-After.
A successful login clears the counter, so mistyping and then
succeeding does not leave the operator throttled.
- Both key sets are capped at 1024 entries. The submitted username is
attacker-controlled, so past the first cap failures fall back to a
counter keyed on the client alone, and past both caps a failure is
answered as throttled without being recorded. Tracked state stays
under half a megabyte and does not grow with invented usernames.
- Concurrent Argon2id verifications are capped at two, a 128 MB
ceiling at 64 MB per hash. Every password-hashing endpoint takes a
slot, including the password-change endpoint, which holds one across
both its hashes. A request that waits five seconds without a slot is
answered 503 and no hash runs for it.
An unknown username is verified against a dummy hash instead of
returning early, so a nonexistent account costs the same time as a
real one and the response cannot be used to enumerate usernames.
The password-change limiter is unchanged: RequireAuth runs ahead of
it, so only a request already carrying a valid session reaches its
bucket.
Also adds the missing test for the third bucketKey call site, where
the peer is a trusted proxy but the forwarded chain names no client.
Every existing test of that fallback uses an IPv4 proxy, where
bucketKey is the identity function, so dropping the /64 masking there
left the suite green.
README and the TRUSTED_PROXIES startup warning updated: a shared
bucket now costs precision, not the availability of the admin path.

The receiver limiter keyed on the request path, and /webhook/{uuid} matches any single segment, so a client minted a fresh bucket per invented path and had unlimited aggregate rate against the only unauthenticated endpoint. An outer limiter keyed on the client address alone now bounds that, chained in front of the unchanged per-entrypoint limiter. Its rejections log at DEBUG without the path, and the README states what each limit does and does not bound.
check / check (push) Superseded by a newer commit; never tested
forwardedClientAddr now walks the header values in reverse with strings.LastIndexByte instead of joining and splitting, so allocation is bounded by the 64-hop cap rather than by header length: 1.6 MB per call becomes 16 bytes for a 1 MB chain. Semantics are unchanged, verified by differential testing against the previous implementation.

Adds an authenticated, CSRF-protected flow that lets a user change their own password from the profile page.
## Route
- New `POST /password` under the `/user/{username}` group in `setupUserRoutes` (`internal/server/routes.go`). That group already applies `CSRF`, `NoCache`, and `RequireAuth`, so the new endpoint inherits all three.
## Handler (`internal/handlers/profile.go`)
- `HandlePasswordChange` enforces own-user access: the `{username}` path parameter must equal the session username (same 403 rule `HandleProfile` uses). This check plus the session lookup is factored into a shared `profileOwnerOrDeny` helper now used by both handlers.
- Parses `current_password`, `new_password`, and `confirm_password` (body size limited via `http.MaxBytesReader`).
- Verifies the current password with `database.VerifyPassword` against the stored hash.
- Requires the new password to be non-empty and equal to the confirmation.
- Hashes the new password with `database.HashPassword` — the same Argon2id helper used to bootstrap the admin user — and persists it on the user row. No new crypto.
- Re-renders the profile page with a clear success or error message. Wrong current password, empty new password, and mismatched confirmation are each rejected with their own message and leave the stored hash unchanged.
## Template (`templates/profile.html`)
- Adds a "Change Password" card with current / new / confirm password fields plus the hidden `csrf_token` (matching the login form's CSRF embedding).
- Renders success/error alerts using the existing `alert-success` / `alert-error` styles. No new CSS classes, so no Tailwind rebuild is required.
## Tests (`internal/handlers/profile_test.go`)
- `TestHandlePasswordChange_Success`: seeds a user, posts a valid change, asserts success message and that the stored hash changed and verifies against the new password.
- `TestHandlePasswordChange_WrongCurrentPassword`: posts a wrong current password, asserts the rejection message and that the stored hash is unchanged.
Validated with `docker build .` (fmt-check, lint, test, build) — exit 0.

## Summary
Refactors the Dockerfile to use a separate lint stage with a pinned golangci-lint Docker image, following the pattern used by [sneak/pixa](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/pixa). This replaces the previous approach of installing golangci-lint via curl in the builder stage.
## Changes
### Dockerfile
- **New `lint` stage** using `golangci/golangci-lint:v2.11.3` (Debian-based, pinned by sha256 digest) as a separate build stage
- **Builder stage** depends on lint via `COPY --from=lint /src/go.sum /dev/null` — build won't proceed unless linting passes
- **Go bumped** from 1.24 to 1.26.1 (`golang:1.26.1-bookworm`, pinned by sha256)
- **golangci-lint bumped** from v1.64.8 to v2.11.3
- All three Docker images (golangci-lint, golang, alpine) pinned by sha256 digest
- Debian-based golangci-lint image used (not Alpine) because mattn/go-sqlite3 CGO does not compile on musl (off64_t)
### Linter Config (.golangci.yml)
- Migrated from v1 to v2 format (`version: "2"` added)
- Removed linters no longer available in v2: `gofmt` (handled by `make fmt-check`), `gosimple` (merged into `staticcheck`), `typecheck` (always-on in v2)
- Same set of linters enabled — no rules weakened
### Code Fixes (all lint issues from v2 upgrade)
- Added package comments to all packages
- Added doc comments to all exported types, functions, and methods
- Fixed unchecked errors flagged by `errcheck` (sqlDB.Close, os.Setenv in tests, resp.Body.Close, fmt.Fprint)
- Fixed unused parameters flagged by `revive` (renamed to `_`)
- Fixed `gosec` G120 warnings: added `http.MaxBytesReader` before `r.ParseForm()` calls
- Fixed `staticcheck` QF1012: replaced `WriteString(fmt.Sprintf(...))` with `fmt.Fprintf`
- Fixed `staticcheck` QF1003: converted if/else chain to tagged switch
- Renamed `DeliveryTask` → `Task` to avoid package stutter (`delivery.Task` instead of `delivery.DeliveryTask`)
- Renamed shadowed builtin `max` parameter to `upperBound` in `cryptoRandInt`
- Used `t.Setenv` instead of `os.Setenv` in tests (auto-restores)
### README.md
- Updated version requirements: Go 1.26+, golangci-lint v2.11+
- Updated Dockerfile description in project structure
## Verification
`docker build .` passes cleanly — formatting check, linting, all tests, and build all succeed.
