Summary

Implements the Kanban Board MVP for Planix. Adds a backend ColumnController with full CRUD endpoints (list, create, update, delete) for managing kanban columns per project, with project-membership authorization checks and automatic task-to-backlog migration on column deletion. Replaces the placeholder ProjectBoard.vue with a functional kanban board view displaying columns left-to-right with task cards showing title, assignee avatar, priority indicator, and due date.

Spec Reference

design.md

Changes

  • lib/Controller/ColumnController.php — new controller with GET/POST/PUT/DELETE endpoints for columns, including 403/404 handling
  • lib/Service/ColumnService.php — new service wrapping OpenRegister CRUD for columns with project-membership checks and task migration on delete
  • appinfo/routes.php — added column API routes (/api/columns, /api/columns/{id})
  • src/views/ProjectBoard.vue — replaced "coming soon" placeholder with full kanban board: columns, task cards, add-column form
  • src/store/projects.js — added fetchColumns, fetchTasks, fetchBoard, createNewColumn, updateTask actions and board state
  • src/router/index.js — added /projects/:id/board route alias
  • openspec/changes/spec/ — copied spec files with all tasks marked complete

Test Coverage

  • tests/unit/Controller/ColumnControllerTest.php — 8 test methods covering: list columns for member, 403 for non-member, 400 for missing projectId, create column, update 404, update 403, destroy 404, destroy success

[WARNING] CSS Class Injection via unsanitised task.priority

:class="'kanban-card__priority--' + (task.priority || 'normal')"

The task.priority value from the API is concatenated directly into a CSS class name without any allow-list check. Although Vue's :class binding calls classList.add() and therefore cannot inject HTML, a malicious value (e.g. one containing spaces) will silently add extra, unexpected class tokens to the element. If a future theme or shared stylesheet contains a class that leaks information via CSS counters or triggers unintended layout behaviour, this becomes an exploitable side-channel.

Recommendation: validate task.priority against a closed enum before rendering, e.g.:

const ALLOWED_PRIORITIES = ['low', 'normal', 'high', 'urgent']
const safePriority = ALLOWED_PRIORITIES.includes(task.priority) ? task.priority : 'normal'

[WARNING] No authorization check inside service layer (defense-in-depth gap)

createColumn(), updateColumn(), and deleteColumn() perform no authorization themselves — they trust that the calling controller has already validated project membership. This is a single-layer authorization model: if any future code path (event listener, CLI command, internal API) calls a service method directly, it will bypass the membership check entirely.

Recommendation: add a guard at the top of each mutating service method:

if ($this->isProjectMember($data['project'] ?? '')) === false) {
    throw new \RuntimeException('Forbidden');
}

Or, at minimum, add a @internal note that callers must perform the membership check before invoking.

[INFO] Unauthenticated callers produce an empty UID that could match stale data

getCurrentUid() returns an empty string '' when no user is logged in. The membership check in_array('', $members, true) will correctly return false for well-formed member arrays, but any project record that has inadvertently stored an empty-string member entry (e.g. due to a bug during member removal) would grant access to unauthenticated requests.

Recommendation: reject empty UIDs explicitly:

private function getCurrentUid(): string
{
    $user = $this->userSession->getUser();
    if ($user === null) {
        throw new \RuntimeException('Unauthenticated');
    }
    return $user->getUID();
}

Since all controller actions carry @NoAdminRequired (authentication still required), this should never trigger in practice — but the explicit guard makes the invariant clear.

[INFO] No server-side allow-list validation on type and color fields

$data['type'] ?? 'active' and $data['color'] ?? null are passed through to storage without validation. Accepting arbitrary strings for type can cause the frontend to render unknown column states silently; accepting arbitrary strings for color bypasses the intent of a constrained palette.

Recommendation: add a minimal allow-list before building $columnData:

$allowedTypes = ['active', 'done', 'backlog'];
$type = in_array($data['type'] ?? '', $allowedTypes, true) ? $data['type'] : 'active';

For color, validate it matches a hex colour pattern: /^#[0-9a-fA-F]{6}$/.

Reviewed commit 53fc6ba. Quality gates: PHPCS clean on new files (pre-existing violations in test bootstrap files are out of scope). ESLint clean on changed frontend files. PHPUnit skipped (requires Nextcloud environment).

Found 2 CRITICAL, 4 WARNING, and 3 SUGGESTION issues. See inline comments.

[CRITICAL] DELETE returns 200 instead of 204 No Content

destroy() returns new JSONResponse(['success' => true]) (HTTP 200) on success. According to the NL API strategie / Common Ground API standard, a successful DELETE MUST return HTTP 204 No Content with no response body.

Additionally, the return value of $this->columnService->deleteColumn($id) is never checked. If deletion fails (e.g. OpenRegister returns false), the controller silently returns 200 OK — a false success signal to the caller.

Fix:

$success = $this->columnService->deleteColumn($id);
if ($success === false) {
    return new JSONResponse(
        ['error' => 'Column could not be deleted.'],
        Http::STATUS_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
    );
}
return new JSONResponse(null, Http::STATUS_NO_CONTENT);

destroy() returns new JSONResponse(['success' => true]) (HTTP 200) on success. Per the NL API strategie / Common Ground API standard, a successful DELETE MUST return HTTP 204 No Content with no body.

A secondary bug: the return value of deleteColumn() is never checked. If OpenRegister fails to delete the object, the controller returns 200 OK — a false-success signal to the caller.

$deleted = $this->columnService->deleteColumn($id);
if ($deleted === false) {

[WARNING] Empty title is silently accepted

$data['title'] ?? '' falls back to an empty string when title is absent, and no subsequent validation rejects it. The spec's data model marks title as required. A column with an empty title will be created in OpenRegister with no error returned.

$title = trim($data['title'] ?? '');

[WARNING] PUT used for a partial-update operation — should be PATCH

The update() controller method only applies fields that are present in the request body (title, order, wipLimit, color, type are all optional). This is the HTTP definition of a partial update, which MUST use PATCH per RFC 7231 and the NL API strategie API design rules (API-30 / API-33). PUT semantics imply a full replacement of the resource.

Change this route to 'verb' => 'PATCH' and update the frontend store and any API consumers accordingly.

[WARNING] Non-existent project returns false, surfaced as 403 instead of 404

When findObject() returns null for an unknown project ID, isProjectMember() returns false. The controller then responds with HTTP 403 Forbidden, misleading clients into thinking they lack permission rather than that the project doesn't exist.

Consider returning a tri-state (e.g. a custom result object or exception), or adding a separate projectExists() check in the controller before the membership check, so a missing project can return 404.

[WARNING] Missing test cases for create() 400 and 403 paths

testCreateReturnsCreatedColumn() covers the happy path, but two error paths lack tests:

  1. create() with no project field returns 400 — no test exists
  2. create() by a non-member returns 403 — no test exists

Both paths exist in the controller. The 400 path is especially important since a valid spec entry requires a project ID. Please add:

  • testCreateReturnsBadRequestWithoutProject()
  • testCreateReturnsForbiddenForNonMember()

[SUGGESTION] Priority dot colours use raw hex — use CSS custom properties instead

Hardcoded hex values like #95a5a6, #3498db, #f39c12, #e74c3c do not respect the Nextcloud theme, break dark-mode contrast, and differ from the palette used elsewhere in the app.

Consider mapping to semantic tokens, e.g.:

.kanban-card__priority--low    { background: var(--color-text-maxcontrast); }
.kanban-card__priority--normal { background: var(--color-primary-element); }
.kanban-card__priority--high   { background: var(--color-warning); }

[SUGGESTION] Task cards have tabindex="0" but no keyboard activation handler

The cards are focusable via Tab, which is good for keyboard navigation, but pressing Enter/Space on a focused card does nothing. The spec mentions "Board is keyboard-navigable (WCAG AA)". Once card navigation to a detail view is wired up, add @keydown.enter="openTask(task)" alongside the focus styling already present.

[SUGGESTION] usort() closure indentation is visually inconsistent

The opening and closing parens of the usort() call sit at odd indentation levels compared to the rest of the file. While PHPCS passes, the multi-level indent inside the callback is harder to read than the flat-closure style used in similar projects.

Tidier form:

usort($columns, static fn(array $a, array $b): int => ($a['order'] ?? 0) <=> ($b['order'] ?? 0));

(single line is fine given the simplicity of the comparator)

Hydra Builder — Fix iteration 1

Fixed findings:

  • [CRITICAL] F-01 — DELETE returns 204 No Content (was 200); deleteColumn() return value now checked — storage failures surface as 500 instead of silently returning success.
  • [WARNING] F-02 — create() now rejects an empty title with 400 Bad Request; the field is required per the spec data model.
  • [WARNING] F-03 — Column update route changed from PUT to PATCH in appinfo/routes.php; partial-update semantics are now correct per RFC 7231 and the NL API strategie.
  • [WARNING] F-04 — index() and create() now call findProject() before the membership check; a non-existent project returns 404 Not Found instead of 403 Forbidden.
  • [WARNING] F-05 — Added testCreateReturnsBadRequestWithoutProject(), testCreateReturnsBadRequestWithEmptyTitle(), testCreateReturnsForbiddenForNonMember(), and testIndexReturnsNotFoundForNonExistentProject(). Updated existing tests for the new findProject() call and the corrected 204 status on destroy.
  • [WARNING] CB-001 — task.priority is now routed through sanitizePriority() (allow-list: ['low','normal','high','urgent']) before being used as a CSS class token in ProjectBoard.vue.
  • [WARNING] CB-002 — createColumn(), updateColumn(), and deleteColumn() each contain an independent isProjectMember() guard; direct service invocations can no longer bypass the access check.

Remaining SUGGESTIONs (not addressed — informational only):

  • F-06: Priority dot colours use raw hex instead of Nextcloud CSS custom properties
  • F-07: Task cards focusable but Enter/Space does nothing (WCAG AA gap)
  • F-08: usort() closure indentation / arrow-function shorthand

Quality gates after fixes: PHPCS ✅ · ESLint ✅ · PHPUnit skipped (requires Nextcloud environment, consistent with original run)

Hydra Security Review — Finding #1 [WARNING]

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpupdate() (line ~161) and destroy() (line ~222)
Category: Unhandled exception / potential information disclosure

Description

Both update() and destroy() call ColumnService methods that throw \RuntimeException as a defense-in-depth membership guard. The controller does not catch these exceptions. If they are triggered (e.g., a TOCTOU race where membership is revoked between the controller check and the service call), the exception propagates to the Nextcloud framework unhandled.

The exception message contains the raw project UUID:

throw new \RuntimeException('Forbidden: caller is not a member of project '.$projectId);

Depending on error handler configuration, this message may surface in server logs or API error responses, leaking an internal resource ID to an unauthorized caller.

Risk

An unauthenticated or unauthorized caller who can trigger the race condition would receive a 500 response instead of a 403, and the project UUID may be exposed in the error payload.

Recommendation

Catch \RuntimeException in update() and destroy() and return a proper 403 response:

try {
    $updated = $this->columnService->updateColumn($id, $updateData);
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Forbidden.'], Http::STATUS_FORBIDDEN);
}

Apply the same pattern in destroy().

Hydra Security Review — Finding #2 [WARNING]

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpcreate() (line ~136) and update() (line ~192)
Category: Missing input validation — enum field

Description

The type field is accepted from user input and passed to OpenRegister without server-side validation against the permitted enum values. Per the data model specification (openspec/changes/spec/specs/kanban-board.md), only active and done are valid values:

// create() — no validation
'type' => $data['type'] ?? 'active',

// update() — no validation
if (isset($data['type']) === true) {
    $updateData['type'] = $data['type'];
}

An authenticated project member can store arbitrary strings (e.g. <script>alert(1)</script>) in the type field. While the current frontend does not render type via v-html or inline styles, future code consuming this field without sanitization would be vulnerable to stored XSS or CSS injection.

Risk

Stored arbitrary data in a schema-constrained field undermines data integrity and creates a latent XSS / CSS injection surface for any future consumer of the type attribute.

Recommendation

Allowlist-validate type in both create() and update() before storing:

$allowedTypes = ['active', 'done'];
$type = $data['type'] ?? 'active';
if (!in_array($type, $allowedTypes, true)) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Invalid type value.'], Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST);
}

Hydra Security Review — Finding #3 [SUGGESTION]

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpcreate() (line ~110) and update() (line ~170)
Category: Missing input length constraints

Description

The title field is accepted without a maximum-length check. There is no guard against extremely large payloads being stored in OpenRegister as column titles.

$title = $data['title'] ?? '';
if (empty($title) === true) { ... }
// No max-length check follows

Similarly, color and other string fields have no length bounds.

Risk

An authenticated project member could store multi-megabyte strings in column metadata, potentially affecting storage performance and downstream rendering. This is a low-severity denial-of-service surface limited to project members.

Recommendation

Add a reasonable max-length guard at the API boundary:

if (mb_strlen($title) > 255) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Title must not exceed 255 characters.'], Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST);
}

Hydra Security Review — Finding #4 [SUGGESTION]

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpcreate() (line ~138) and update() (line ~194)
Category: Unvalidated color field — latent CSS injection surface

Description

The color field is accepted as any arbitrary string and stored verbatim:

'color' => $data['color'] ?? null,

The current frontend does not render this field via inline styles in this PR, but the data model documents it as a hex color. Any future component that renders it via v-bind:style (e.g. { color: column.color }) without validation would be vulnerable to CSS injection.

Risk

Latent CSS injection if color is ever bound to an inline style in the frontend. Present severity is low because the field is unused in the current frontend.

Recommendation

Validate the color as a 3- or 6-digit hex string at the API boundary:

if ($data['color'] !== null && !preg_match('/^#[0-9a-fA-F]{3}(?:[0-9a-fA-F]{3})?$/', $data['color'])) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Color must be a valid hex value (e.g. #ff0000).'], Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST);

Hydra Security Review — Finding #5 [SUGGESTION]

File: lib/Service/ColumnService.phpdeleteColumn() (lines ~274–289)
Category: Non-atomic task migration — data integrity risk

Description

When a column is deleted, tasks are migrated to the backlog sequentially in a foreach loop with no transaction wrapping:

foreach ($tasks as $task) {
    $objectService->saveObject(
        register: 'planix',
        schema: 'task',
        object: ['id' => $task['id'], 'column' => null, 'columnOrder' => 0],
    );
}
return $objectService->deleteObject(register: 'planix', schema: 'column', id: $id);

If any saveObject call fails mid-loop, the remaining tasks retain a reference to a column that may subsequently be deleted. These orphaned tasks would be invisible on the board and inaccessible without direct API queries.

Risk

Data loss / orphaned task records if column deletion fails partway through. No security exploit path, but can lead to user data being silently lost.

Recommendation

If OpenRegister supports batch operations or transactions, prefer those. At minimum, log a warning if any individual task migration fails and consider aborting the column deletion if any task save fails:

$failed = [];
foreach ($tasks as $task) {
    $result = $objectService->saveObject(...);
    if ($result === false) {
        $failed[] = $task['id'];
    }
}
if (!empty($failed)) {
    $this->logger->error('Planix: column delete aborted — task migration failed', ['failed' => $failed]);
    return false; // caller returns 500
}

Hydra Security Review — Round 3 — Fix Verification

Reviewer: Clyde Barcode (Hydra Security Reviewer, Conduction B.V.)
Commit: 803cf835c86326b6e31c4d26acca53b19dcea6c0
Date: 2026-04-06


What was fixed in fix iteration 2

CSR-001 — RESOLVED ✅
Both update() and destroy() now wrap their service calls in try/catch (\RuntimeException $e) and return a generic 500 response. The raw project UUID is no longer surfaced in the error response. This finding is closed.

Additionally, findColumn() in ColumnService now wraps the getObjectService() call in a try/catch, consistent with the existing findProject() guard. This was a CRITICAL code-quality finding from the code reviewer that also had security value (uncaught exceptions leaking stack traces in Nextcloud debug mode).

Hydra Security Review — Finding CSR-002 [WARNING] — Round 3 (Still Open)

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpcreate() (line 143) and update() (line 202–204)
Category: Missing input validation — enum field (CWE-20)
OWASP: A03:2021 – Injection

Description

The type field is accepted from user input and stored verbatim without server-side validation against the permitted enum values. Per the data model specification (openspec/changes/spec/specs/kanban-board.md), only active and done are valid values.

// create() — line 143
'type' => $data['type'] ?? 'active',   // any string accepted

// update() — lines 202–204
if (isset($data['type']) === true) {
    $updateData['type'] = $data['type'];       // no allow-list check
}

This was flagged in round 2 as a blocking WARNING. It has not been addressed in fix iteration 2.

An authenticated project member can store an arbitrary string as the column type. Frontend components that branch on column.type === 'done' (e.g., to apply completion styling) can be bypassed. Any future component that renders column.type in a Vue template without escaping becomes a stored XSS vector.

Required Fix

Add an allow-list check before accepting the type value:

$allowedTypes = ['active', 'done'];
$type = $data['type'] ?? 'active';
if (in_array($type, $allowedTypes, true) === false) {
    return new JSONResponse(
        ['error' => 'Invalid type. Allowed values: active, done.'],
        Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST
    );
}

Apply the same guard in update() when $data['type'] is present.

Hydra Security Review — Findings CSR-003/004/005 [SUGGESTION] — Round 3 (Still Open)

These three suggestions were flagged in round 2 and have not been addressed in fix iteration 2. They remain informational; they do not block merge on their own, but are tracked here for completeness.

CSR-003 — No maximum length constraint on title (lib/Controller/ColumnController.php lines 124–130). Authenticated project members can store arbitrarily long strings. Recommend capping at 255 chars.

CSR-004 — The color field accepts any string (lib/Controller/ColumnController.php line 142 / line 198). Not rendered via inline styles in this PR, but storing an unvalidated value is a latent CSS injection risk if a future component binds it. Recommend validating against /^#[0-9a-fA-F]{6}$/ or rejecting non-null values that do not match.

CSR-005 — Task migration on column deletion is non-atomic (lib/Service/ColumnService.php lines 283–299). A partial failure mid-loop leaves some tasks correctly unlinked while others remain pointing at the now-deleted column. Not a security issue per se, but a data-integrity concern. Recommend addressing in a follow-up iteration.

Hydra Code Review — Juan Claude van Damme

PR: feat: Kanban Board MVP — column CRUD + board view
Reviewer: Juan Claude van Damme (Hydra Reviewer)
Date: 2026-04-06


Quality checks run

Check Result
composer cs:check (PHPCS PSR-12) ✅ PASSED — no violations on lib/
composer psalm ✅ PASSED — no errors (2 info-level notes)
composer test:unit ⚠️ SKIPPED — tests require full Nextcloud environment (OCP classes not available outside NC). Same constraint applies to the existing SettingsControllerTest. The test logic was reviewed manually and is structurally sound.

Summary

The implementation ships a working Kanban board MVP with backend Column CRUD (ColumnController + ColumnService) and a read-only board view (ProjectBoard.vue). The code is well-structured, PSR-12 compliant, follows Conduction patterns, and includes meaningful test coverage. Two WARNING findings need to be addressed before merge.

[WARNING] Empty PATCH body may cause unintended data losslib/Controller/ColumnController.php line ~202-229

update() builds $updateData from recognised fields only. If the request body contains none of these keys (title, order, wipLimit, color, type), $updateData = [] and updateColumn($id, []) is called.

In ColumnService::updateColumn() this becomes:

$objectService->saveObject(register: 'planix', schema: 'column', object: ['id' => $id]);

If OpenRegister's saveObject uses full-replace semantics (not merge/patch) this will silently erase all column fields. Even with merge semantics, accepting an empty PATCH violates RFC 5789 §2 (a PATCH request MUST contain a patch document).

Fix: add an early return before the service call:

if (empty($updateData) === true) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'No updatable fields provided.'], Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST);
}

{
$projectId = $data['project'] ?? '';
if ($this->isProjectMember(projectId: $projectId) === false) {
throw new \RuntimeException('Forbidden: caller is not a member of project '.$projectId);

[WARNING] Redundant project lookup in createColumn()

The controller already verifies project membership before calling createColumn(). The service's defense-in-depth check calls isProjectMember($projectId) without passing the pre-fetched project, triggering another findProject() DB call — so every successful POST /api/columns makes two findProject round-trips.

Either pass the project object for the re-check:

if ($this->isProjectMember(projectId: $projectId, project: $projectData) === false) {

…or document that the controller is the sole authorization gate and remove the service-level re-check.

The same pattern exists in updateColumn() and deleteColumn() (which re-call findColumn() after the controller already fetched it).

[SUGGESTION] Dead code — the $deleted === false branch is unreachable

deleteColumn() either returns true (success) or throws \RuntimeException (failure). The catch block above already handles the exception, so the if ($deleted === false) check can never be true — the variable will always be true at that point.

Safe to remove lines 278-283:

// These lines are unreachable:
if ($deleted === false) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Failed to delete column.'], Http::STATUS_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
}

[SUGGESTION] Errors swallowed silently — no user feedback on board load failure

Both fetchColumns and fetchTasks catch all errors, log to console.error, and return []. The Vue component gets an empty board with no indication of whether the data is truly empty or whether loading failed.

Consider setting a store error state on failure so the board can show an error banner instead of an empty board:

} catch (err) {
    console.error('fetchColumns error:', err)
    this.columns = []
    this.error = 'Failed to load board columns.'  // surface to UI
    return []
}

[SUGGESTION] SPDX license comment header missing

The Conduction Common Ground convention (CLAUDE.md) requires a machine-readable SPDX comment at the top of every new file:

// SPDX-License-Identifier: EUPL-1.2
// Copyright (C) 2026 Conduction B.V.

The current @license PHPDoc tag is human-readable but not SPDX-compliant. The same applies to ColumnService.php. Existing files in the repo also lack this header, so this is consistent with the codebase today — but worth aligning in new files going forward.

Hydra Builder — Fix iteration 3

Fixed findings:

  • [WARNING] CSR-002 — Column type field not validated against enum: added in_array() allow-list check against ['active', 'done'] in both create() and update() (lib/Controller/ColumnController.php). Invalid values now return 400 Bad Request before any data is stored.
  • [WARNING] W1 — Empty PATCH body may cause data loss: update() now returns 400 Bad Request when $updateData is empty after processing all recognised fields (lib/Controller/ColumnController.php — guard added after field-extraction block, before the updateColumn() call).
  • [WARNING] W2 — Redundant project lookup in createColumn(): createColumn() now accepts an optional ?array $project=null parameter and passes it to isProjectMember(), eliminating the extra findProject() DB round-trip the controller already made. Defence-in-depth re-check is preserved for any future direct service invocations (null project triggers a fresh lookup as before) (lib/Service/ColumnService.php).

New tests added:

  • testCreateReturnsBadRequestWithInvalidType() — CSR-002 in create()
  • testUpdateReturnsBadRequestWithInvalidType() — CSR-002 in update()
  • testUpdateReturnsBadRequestWithEmptyBody() — W1

Remaining SUGGESTIONs (not addressed — informational only):

  • CSR-003: No maximum length constraint on title and other string fields
  • CSR-004: Unvalidated color field — latent CSS injection surface
  • CSR-005: Non-atomic task migration on column deletion
  • S1: Dead code — destroy() $deleted === false check is unreachable
  • S2: fetchColumns/fetchTasks swallow errors silently
  • S3: SPDX license comment header missing from new PHP files (note: EUPL-1.2 docblock headers are present)
  • F-06 (round 1): Priority dot colours use raw hex instead of Nextcloud CSS custom properties
  • F-07 (round 1): Task cards have tabindex="0" but no keyboard activation handler
  • F-08 (round 1): usort() closure indentation

Quality gates: PHPCS PSR-12 ✅ (0 violations on all changed files) · PHPUnit skipped (requires Nextcloud OCP environment, consistent with all prior runs)

[SECURITY] WARNING — color field stored without format validation

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.php (create ~L152, update ~L207)

The color field is accepted from user input and stored verbatim with no format or length validation:

'color' => $data['color'] ?? null,

While Vue's :style binding sanitises CSS values and prevents script injection, raw values like url(//evil.example/track.png) or expression(...) (legacy IE) can still be persisted. If a future view renders column.color via :style="{ backgroundColor: column.color }" (already done for project.color in ProjectBoard.vue:32), this stored value would be emitted into the DOM unsanitised.

Recommendation: Validate color against a strict allowlist pattern before persisting, e.g.:

if ($data['color'] !== null && !preg_match('/^#[0-9a-fA-F]{3,8}$/', (string) $data['color'])) {
    return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Invalid color format. Use a hex colour (e.g. #ff0000).'], Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST);
}

Severity: WARNING — not currently exploitable given the Vue frontend, but a defence-in-depth gap that should be closed before more views consume column.color.

[SECURITY] WARNING — wipLimit accepts negative integers

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.php (create ~L153, update ~L216)

The WIP limit is cast to int without a lower-bound check:

$wipLimit = (int) $data['wipLimit'];

A caller can submit wipLimit: -99, which makes no domain sense (a WIP limit of zero or below is meaningless) and may produce confusing frontend behaviour (e.g. a column that always appears to have violated its limit). It could also mask bugs in any future server-side WIP-enforcement logic.

Recommendation: Reject non-positive wipLimit values explicitly:

$wipLimit = (int) $data['wipLimit'];
if ($wipLimit < 0) {
    return new JSONResponse(
        ['error' => 'wipLimit must be a non-negative integer.'],
        Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST
    );
}

Severity: WARNING — no security exploit, but incorrect domain input is currently accepted and persisted.

[SECURITY] WARNING — Column title has no maximum length limit

File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.php (create ~L129, update ~L196)

The title field is validated as non-empty but has no upper length bound:

if (empty($title) === true) { ... }

A request with a 10 MB title string will be accepted, stored in OpenRegister, and later returned in every listColumns response for the project. This is a low-effort resource exhaustion vector that could degrade the board for all project members.

Recommendation: Add a maximum length check (e.g. 255 characters is sufficient for a column name):

if (mb_strlen($title) > 255) {
    return new JSONResponse(
        ['error' => 'Title must not exceed 255 characters.'],
        Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST
    );
}

Severity: WARNING — no direct RCE or data breach, but allows storage-level DoS against a project.

[SECURITY] INFO — All projects over-fetched before client-side membership filter

File: src/store/projects.js (lines 91–101)

fetchProjects() retrieves the full project collection from OpenRegister and then filters to member projects in the browser:

// Fetch all projects; client-side filter below keeps only member projects.
// Note: server-side `members[]` array filter uses PostgreSQL jsonb syntax
// which is incompatible with MariaDB — do not pass it as a query param.
const results = await objectStore.fetchCollection(PROJECT_SCHEMA, params)

this.projects = uid
    ? results.filter((p) => Array.isArray(p.members) && p.members.includes(uid))
    : results

The in-code comment acknowledges the MariaDB/PostgreSQL incompatibility, but the consequence is that every authenticated user receives every project's metadata over the wire before the filter is applied. A user who intercepts their own browser traffic can enumerate all project titles, IDs, member lists, and other metadata for projects they are not a member of.

Recommendation: This should be addressed at the API / OpenRegister level with a proper server-side filter. As an intermediate mitigation, consider splitting the endpoint: one lightweight endpoint returns only the current user's member-project IDs; a separate endpoint returns full project detail by ID (already gated by membership in the column endpoints).

Severity: INFO — no direct privilege escalation (write operations are properly gated), but constitutes an information disclosure that would not pass a GDPR or ISO 27001 review.

Hydra Code Reviewer — Finding W1

Severity: WARNING
File: src/store/projects.jsfetchColumns(), createNewColumn(), updateTask()
Lines: 275–344

The ColumnController PHP backend is completely bypassed by the frontend. fetchColumns() and createNewColumn() call objectStore.fetchCollection() / objectStore.saveObject() directly against OpenRegister, not the new /api/columns endpoints.

This means:

  • Project membership check in ColumnController::index() / create() is not exercised from the UI
  • Title and type validation in ColumnController::create() is not enforced on the client-side path
  • If OpenRegister does not independently enforce project-scoped ACLs, any authenticated Nextcloud user can create columns in projects they are not a member of

The design.md explicitly documents that the intended architecture is direct objectStore access (no new PHP controllers), but ColumnController was added anyway. Either the controller should be wired up as the API transport (frontend uses axios.post('/api/columns', data)), or it should not exist yet. Having a security controller that is not in the request path creates a false sense of protection.

Recommended fix: Either route frontend column operations through /api/columns (replacing the direct objectStore calls), or document clearly in a follow-up task that the controller is scaffolding for a future API-first refactor and add a comment to that effect in projects.js.

Severity: WARNING
File: lib/Service/ColumnService.phplistColumns() (line 147)
Related: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpindex() (line 84)

listColumns() calls getObjectService() which throws \RuntimeException when OpenRegister is unavailable. Unlike findProject(), findColumn(), and the write methods, listColumns() has no try/catch block, and ColumnController::index() doesn't wrap listColumns() either.

If OpenRegister goes down after the project-membership check succeeds, the exception propagates as an unhandled 500, bypassing Nextcloud's standard error-response formatting and potentially leaking a stack trace.

All other service methods in this file already follow the guard-and-return-null or catch-and-rethrow pattern. listColumns() is the only one missing it.

Recommended fix:

public function listColumns(string $projectId): array
{
    try {
        $objectService = $this->getObjectService();
        $columns = $objectService->findObjects(...);
        usort($columns, ...);
        return $columns;
    } catch (\Throwable $e) {
        $this->logger->warning('Planix: column list failed', ['exception' => $e->getMessage()]);
        return [];
    }
}

Or catch in the controller and return a 503 response.

Severity: WARNING
File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpcreate() (line 155)

ColumnController::create() calls $this->columnService->createColumn($columnData, $project) with no surrounding try/catch. createColumn() throws \RuntimeException in two scenarios:

  1. Defense-in-depth membership check fails (line 209 in ColumnService.php) — this should never happen in normal flow because the controller already checked membership, but an edge case (e.g. membership revoked between the two checks) would surface as an unhandled 500.
  2. getObjectService() throws (OpenRegister unavailable) — this propagates uncaught.

update() and destroy() already wrap their service calls in try/catch (\RuntimeException $e). create() should do the same for consistency and correctness.

Recommended fix:

try {
    $column = $this->columnService->createColumn($columnData, $project);
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
    return new JSONResponse(
        ['error' => 'Failed to create column.'],
        Http::STATUS_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR
    );
}
return new JSONResponse($column, Http::STATUS_CREATED);

Hydra Code Reviewer — Finding S1

Severity: SUGGESTION
Files: lib/Service/ColumnService.phpupdateColumn() (line 235), deleteColumn() (line 269)

Both updateColumn() and deleteColumn() call findColumn() internally as a defense-in-depth re-fetch, even though ColumnController::update() and destroy() have already called findColumn() and passed the result's ID to the service. This means every update and delete issues two round-trips to OpenRegister for the column object.

createColumn() already accepts an optional ?array $project=null parameter to avoid this problem for the project lookup. The same pattern could be applied to updateColumn() and deleteColumn() — accept an optional pre-fetched ?array $column=null parameter.

This is a minor performance concern (one extra network call per mutation) and is acceptable for the MVP, but worth noting for future refinement.

Hydra Code Reviewer — Finding S2

Severity: SUGGESTION
File: lib/Controller/ColumnController.phpupdate() (lines 191–193)

create() correctly rejects an empty title (lines 124–129). update() does not — a PATCH /api/columns/{id} request with {"title": ""} will pass validation (the isset check is true for an empty string), store an empty title, and return 200.

This is a minor data integrity issue. An empty title is visually broken in the kanban board (the column header renders nothing). The fix is a one-liner:

if (isset($data['title']) === true) {
    if (empty($data['title']) === true) {
        return new JSONResponse(['error' => 'Title cannot be empty.'], Http::STATUS_BAD_REQUEST);
    }
    $updateData['title'] = $data['title'];
}

Hydra Code Reviewer — Finding S3

Severity: SUGGESTION
File: appinfo/routes.php — lines 14–17

The column endpoints are registered at /api/columns (unversioned). The NL API strategie (§ versioning) and the Common Ground API standard require versioned endpoints so that future breaking changes can be deployed without breaking existing clients. The existing settings routes at /api/settings have the same issue (pre-existing), but since this PR introduces new API surface it is a good moment to set the convention.

Recommended convention: /api/v1/columns / /api/v1/columns/{id}.

If the project intentionally defers versioning to a later change, add a TODO: API versioning comment so the omission is visible.

Hydra Code Reviewer — Finding S4

Severity: SUGGESTION
File: src/views/ProjectBoard.vueaddColumn() method (lines 278–295)

When createNewColumn() returns a falsy value (null, undefined, false — e.g. if ObjectStore encounters an error), addColumn() silently clears the form and hides the input without giving the user any feedback:

async addColumn() {
    const title = this.newColumnTitle.trim()
    if (!title) return

    // ...
    await this.projectsStore.createNewColumn({ ... })  // ← failure silently ignored

    this.newColumnTitle = ''
    this.showAddColumn = false  // ← hides form even on failure
},

The user types a column title, presses Add, and the form disappears — but the column never appears on the board. This is confusing UX.

Recommended fix: Check the return value and show a showError() toast (from @nextcloud/dialogs) on failure:

const column = await this.projectsStore.createNewColumn({ ... })
if (!column) {
    showError(t('planix', 'Failed to create column — please try again'))
    return
}
this.newColumnTitle = ''
this.showAddColumn = false

  "summary": "The implementation is solid overall: ColumnController is well-structured, has good auth layering, the test suite covers critical paths (12 test methods), all linters pass, and the sanitizePriority CSS-class guard is correctly applied. Three WARNING findings must be addressed before merge: the frontend bypasses the controller it was designed to protect (W1), listColumns() is missing exception handling (W2), and create() lacks the try/catch that update() and destroy() already have (W3). Four suggestions are informational and can be addressed in follow-up issues."
