Two unauthenticated surfaces closed on the edge node.
Dashboard and API: the local dashboard and every /api/* route were open to
anything on the node's LAN. Adds a login page plus session-cookie auth for
the browser, and cookie-or-Basic for the API so scripted callers stay
possible. Passwords are hashed with stdlib scrypt (no new dependency, this
runs on a Pi) and compared in constant time; the salt and session-signing
secret persist in credentials.json. Startup warns while the default password
is still in place. No non-browser callers of the node API exist today
(C2 talks to nodes over MQTT and nodes call C2 outbound), so nothing breaks.
Adds python-multipart, which FastAPI's Form() needs for the login POST and
which was missing from requirements entirely.
MQTT: nodes authenticated with a shared drb-node password, and the broker
ACL keyed off %c — the client-supplied client id — so any holder of that one
password could claim another node's topic namespace. Nodes now connect as
username=<node_id>, password=<their C2-issued api_key>, which mosquitto's
dynamic-security plugin checks, with the ACL keyed off the authenticated %u.
TLS is gated on MQTT_TLS and uses default CA verification.
The old key_request MQTT path stays in place behind TODO(mqtt-cutover)
markers as the fallback until the cutover is proven; a node with no api_key
on disk logs a clear repeated refusal rather than spinning.
