- /api/v1/media and /api/v2/media (and GET/PUT /api/v1/media/:id):
images go through libvips (NetVips, its native build bundled):
autorotated, every kind of metadata dropped (EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC,
comments), capped at 4096 px, with a 640 px preview and a blurhash
(own encoder, the reference algorithm); animated GIFs are re-encoded;
video and audio are remuxed by ffmpeg with -map_metadata -1, never
re-encoded, and a video gets a still preview. Files get random names
under /var/lib/privapub/media, outside the web root deploys replace, and
are served at /media/files with nosniff and a sandbox CSP.
- media_ids on create and edit (four at most, the persona's own, each used
once); notes carry them as Document attachments with alt text, blurhash,
focalPoint and size; inbound attachments were already kept.
- avatar and header uploads in update_credentials, cropped to 400x400 and
1500x500, federated with Update{Person}.
- Remote media reaches clients only through /media/proxy/{hmac}/{url},
fetched by the guarded client (no SVG, 40 MB cap) and cached outside the
served root, trimmed to 5 GB; foreign avatars and headers use it too, so
a client never contacts another server.
- MediaJanitor deletes uploads left unattached for a day.
- nginx accepts 100 MB bodies on the upload endpoints only (applied on Max).

DomainBlock (domain, severity, reject-media, public and private comment)
covers the domain and its subdomains. Admins manage them under
/clientapi/admin/domainblocks/{list,insert,delete}; the set is kept in
memory, reloaded on every change and at most five minutes stale.
A suspended domain is refused by FederationHttp.IsAllowed, so nothing is
fetched from it and no job delivers to it, and the inbox drops its
activities with a 202 before fetching any key. Reject-media strips the
attachments of posts from that domain. Silence is recorded for the
timelines and notifications that arrive in P1.2.

Infrastructure/Http adds the client the roadmap's S3 and S4 ask for:
- the connect callback resolves the name itself and refuses loopback,
private, link-local, CGNAT, documentation, multicast, ULA, NAT64, 6to4,
Teredo and IPv4-mapped/compatible forms, then connects to the vetted
address, so DNS rebinding cannot swap it afterwards;
- redirects are followed by hand, at most three, each one re-checked;
- bodies are capped at 1 MB after decompression, only JSON media types are
read, every request has a 15 s budget, and a refused URL is not asked
again for five minutes.
Actor and WebFinger fetches and inbox deliveries all use it. Test networks
can switch on Federation:AllowPrivateNetworks/AllowPlainHttp; startup
refuses both in Production.
PrivaPub.Tests (xUnit v3) starts with the address table and the fetcher's
limits against an in-process peer; build.yml and deploy.yml run it.
