+# Development Environment Setup
+
+This document describes how to set up a development environment for Yggdrasil using Docker and VS Code Dev Containers.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Docker installed and running
+- VS Code with the "Dev Containers" extension installed
+- Git configured with your user information
+
+## Option 1: VS Code Dev Containers (Recommended)
+
+1. Open this project in VS Code
+2. When prompted, click "Reopen in Container" or:
+   - Press `Ctrl+Shift+P` (or `Cmd+Shift+P` on macOS)
+   - Type "Dev Containers: Reopen in Container"
+   - Select the option
+
+VS Code will automatically build the development container and set up the environment with:
+- Go 1.23 with all necessary tools
+- Language server (gopls)
+- Linting (golangci-lint)
+- Debugging support (delve)
+- Git integration
+- Zsh shell with Oh My Zsh
+
+## Option 2: Manual Docker Container
+
+If you prefer to use Docker directly:
+
+### Using Makefile commands:
+
+```bash
+# Build and run the development container
+make -f Makefile dev
+
+# Or build and run separately
+make -f Makefile dev-build
+make -f Makefile dev-run
+
+# Get shell access to running container
+make -f Makefile dev-shell
+
+# Stop the container
+make -f Makefile dev-stop
+
+# Clean up
+make -f Makefile dev-clean
+```
+
+### Using Docker directly:
+
+```bash
+# Build the development image
+docker build -f Dockerfile -t yggdrasil-dev .
+
+# Run the container
+docker run -it --rm \
+  --name yggdrasil-dev \
+  -v $(pwd):/workspace \
+  -v ~/.gitconfig:/home/vscode/.gitconfig:ro \
+  -p 9000:9000 \
+  -p 9001:9001 \
+  -p 9002:9002 \
+  -p 9003:9003 \
+  --privileged \
+  --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
+  --device=/dev/net/tun \
+  yggdrasil-dev
+```
+
+## Development Features
+
+The development environment includes:
+
+- **Go Tools**: gopls, delve debugger, goimports, golangci-lint, staticcheck
+- **Editor Support**: Syntax highlighting, auto-completion, debugging
+- **Testing**: Go test runner and coverage tools
+- **Networking**: Privileged access for network interface testing
+- **Port Forwarding**: Ports 9000-9003 exposed for Yggdrasil services
+
+## Building and Testing
+
+Inside the container:
+
+```bash
+# Build the project
+./build
+
+# Run tests
+go test ./...
+
+# Generate configuration
+./yggdrasil -genconf > yggdrasil.conf
+
+# Run with configuration
+./yggdrasil -useconf yggdrasil.conf
+```
+
+## Tips
+
+1. Your local Git configuration is mounted into the container
+2. The workspace directory (`/workspace`) is mapped to your local project directory
+3. All changes made to source files are persistent on your host machine
+4. The container runs as a non-root user (`vscode`) for security
+5. Network capabilities are enabled for testing network-related features
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- If the container fails to start, ensure Docker has enough resources allocated
+- For network-related issues, verify that the container has the necessary privileges
+- If Go tools are missing, rebuild the container: `make -f Makefile dev-clean dev-build`

+# Security Improvements in Config Package
+
+## Path Traversal Prevention
+
+This package has been updated to prevent path traversal attacks by implementing the following security measures:
+
+### 1. Path Validation Function
+
+The `validateConfigPath()` function performs comprehensive validation of file paths:
+
+- **Path Cleaning**: Uses `filepath.Clean()` to resolve `.` and `..` components
+- **Absolute Path Resolution**: Converts all paths to absolute paths to prevent relative path issues
+- **Traversal Pattern Detection**: Explicitly checks for `..` and `//` patterns
+- **Control Character Filtering**: Prevents paths containing null bytes or control characters
+- **File Extension Validation**: Restricts file extensions to known configuration formats
+
+### 2. Secure File Operations
+
+All file operations now use validated paths:
+
+- **Config File Reading/Writing**: All `os.ReadFile()` and `os.WriteFile()` operations use validated paths
+- **Directory Creation**: Directory paths are cleaned before `os.MkdirAll()` operations
+- **Private Key Loading**: Private key file paths are validated in `postprocessConfig()`
+
+### 3. Defense in Depth
+
+Multiple layers of protection:
+
+- **Input Validation**: All user-provided paths are validated before use
+- **Path Canonicalization**: Paths are converted to canonical form
+- **Extension Whitelisting**: Only allowed file extensions are permitted
+- **Error Handling**: Invalid paths return descriptive errors without exposing system details
+
+## Additional Security Measures
+
+### 4. System Directory Protection
+
+Restricted access to sensitive system directories:
+- Blocks access to `/etc/` (except `/etc/yggdrasil/`)
+- Blocks access to `/root/`, `/var/` (except `/var/lib/yggdrasil/`)
+- Blocks access to `/sys/`, `/proc/`, `/dev/`
+
+### 5. Path Depth Limiting
+
+Maximum path depth of 10 levels to prevent deeply nested attacks.
+
+## Allowed File Extensions
+
+The following file extensions are permitted for configuration files:
+- `.json` - JSON configuration files
+- `.hjson` - Human JSON configuration files  
+- `.conf` - Generic configuration files
+- `.config` - Configuration files
+- `.yml` - YAML configuration files
+- `.yaml` - YAML configuration files
+- (no extension) - Files without extensions
+
+## Migration Notes
+
+Existing code using this package should continue to work without changes. Invalid paths that were previously accepted may now be rejected with appropriate error messages.
+
+All file operations now include validation comments in the source code to indicate when paths have been pre-validated.
+
+## Testing
+
+To verify path validation is working correctly:
+
+```go
+// Valid paths
+validPath, err := validateConfigPath("/etc/yggdrasil/config.json")
+// Invalid paths (should return errors)
+_, err = validateConfigPath("../../../etc/passwd")
+_, err = validateConfigPath("/config/../../../etc/shadow")
+```

+# WebUI Module
+
+This module provides a web interface for managing Yggdrasil node through a browser.
+
+## Features
+
+- ✅ HTTP web server with static files
+- ✅ Health check endpoint (`/health`)
+- ✅ Development and production build modes
+- ✅ Custom session-based authentication
+- ✅ Beautiful login page (password-only)
+- ✅ **Brute force protection** with IP blocking
+- ✅ Session management with automatic cleanup
+- ✅ IPv4 and IPv6 support
+- ✅ Path traversal attack protection
+
+## Configuration
+
+In the Yggdrasil configuration file:
+
+```json
+{
+  "WebUI": {
+    "Enable": true,
+    "Port": 9000,
+    "Host": "",
+    "Password": "your_secure_password"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Configuration parameters:
+
+- **`Enable`** - enable/disable WebUI
+- **`Port`** - port for web interface (default 9000)
+- **`Host`** - IP address to bind to (empty means all interfaces)
+- **`Password`** - password for accessing the web interface (optional, if empty no authentication required)
+
+## Usage
+
+### Without password authentication
+
+```go
+server := webui.Server("127.0.0.1:9000", "", logger)
+```
+
+### With password authentication
+
+```go
+server := webui.Server("127.0.0.1:9000", "your_password", logger)
+```
+
+### Starting the server
+
+```go
+go func() {
+    if err := server.Start(); err != nil {
+        logger.Errorf("WebUI server error: %v", err)
+    }
+}()
+
+// To stop
+server.Stop()
+```
+
+## Endpoints
+
+- **`/`** - main page (index.html) - requires authentication if password is set
+- **`/login.html`** - custom login page (only password required)
+- **`/auth/login`** - POST endpoint for authentication
+- **`/auth/logout`** - logout endpoint (clears session)
+- **`/health`** - health check (returns "OK") - no authentication required
+- **`/static/*`** - static files (CSS, JS, images) - requires authentication if password is set
+
+## Build modes
+
+### Development mode (`-tags debug`)
+- Files loaded from disk from `src/webui/static/`
+- File changes available without rebuild
+
+### Production mode (default)
+- Files embedded in binary
+- Faster loading, smaller deployment size
+
+## Security
+
+- Path traversal attack protection
+- Configured HTTP timeouts
+- Header size limits
+- File MIME type validation
+- Custom session-based authentication (password protection)
+- HttpOnly and Secure cookies
+- Session expiration (24 hours)
+- **Brute force protection**: IP blocking after 3 failed attempts
+- **Temporary lockout**: 1-minute timeout for blocked IPs
+- Automatic cleanup of expired blocks and sessions
+- Real IP detection (supports X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP headers)
+- Health check endpoint always accessible without authentication
+
+## Testing
+
+The module includes a comprehensive test suite:
+
+```bash
+cd src/webui
+go test -v
+```
+
+Tests cover:
+- Server creation and management
+- HTTP endpoints
+- Static files (dev and prod modes)
+- Error handling
+- Configuration
+- Yggdrasil IPv6 binding

+  }
+}
+
+// Usage examples:
+//
+// 1. Enable WebUI with password protection:
+//    Set "Password" to a strong password
+//    Users will see a custom login page asking only for password
+//
+// 2. Disable password protection:
+//    Set "Password" to "" (empty string)
+//    WebUI will be accessible without authentication
+//
+// 3. Disable WebUI entirely:
+//    Set "Enable" to false
+//
+// Authentication features:
+// - Custom login page (no username required, only password)
+// - Session-based authentication with secure cookies
+// - 24-hour session expiration
+// - Automatic session cleanup
+// - Brute force protection (3 failed attempts = 1 minute block)
+// - IP-based blocking with automatic cleanup
+//
+// Security recommendations:
+// - Use a strong, unique password (12+ characters)
+// - Bind to localhost (127.0.0.1) unless you need remote access
+// - Consider using HTTPS reverse proxy for production deployments
+// - Sessions are stored in memory and lost on server restart
+// - Failed login attempts are tracked per IP address
+// - If behind a reverse proxy, ensure X-Forwarded-For headers are set correctly
