The lead story is a coordinated security hardening push, with seven open proposals and one merged fix focused on privilege, credential exposure, and denial of service risk.

The first theme is access control and isolation. As evidence, proposal 24713 would revoke stale sessions at the auth endpoint, so a demoted admin no longer keeps admin rights until a cookie refresh. Related proposal 24714 would reject cross-origin websocket connections, closing a path where any web page could…

The second theme is resource and input safety. Proposal 24717 would limit concurrent motion searches, which today can each spawn multiple decode workers and overload a host. Proposal 24715 would validate web push registrations, and 24716 would limit chat images to same-origin sources. The impact is reliability and…

Finally, two merged changes matter now. Miscellaneous fixes in 24704, commit 275e184, correct recording segment cleanup, pace restarts for failed camera processes, fix birdseye snapshots, and clean up transcription temp files. And upgrade 24708, commit d7bb780, moves from deprecated ROCm 7 to ROCm 10 point 1 for AMD…
