Default deny plus explicit allow exceptions is usually safer for private admin applications. Apply rules to a staging client before enforcing them on a live business-critical service.
In the **Vhost → Security** editor, Traffic policy groups reusable ACL profiles and the separate **inline Vhost IP/CIDR access list** together, followed by HTTP methods, request Content-Type filtering, per-IP rates, country policy, country-rate and User-Agent-rate controls. The inline list is not a second version of an assigned profile: both layers remain independently enforced; an allow in one does not cancel a deny in the other. The **Vhost → Authentication** tab is for Basic Auth and Tinyauth only. HSTS, security headers and User-Agent blocking are separate Security groups. **Custom locations → Access** separates its ACL profile, HTTP method, country and inline IP/CIDR fields. These are only layout changes; restriction scopes still combine as described above.

Method policies allow, block or leave methods unrestricted. A denied method returns `405`, while typical ACL/country denials return `403`. Per-client rate limits can configure request count, window and burst with optional country overrides; exceeding the limit returns `429` with `Retry-After`. Limits are application controls, not a replacement for upstream DDoS protection.
## Basic Auth and Tinyauth
## Basic Auth, Tinyauth, Authelia and authentik
- **Basic Auth:** protect selected Vhosts with configured credentials. Use HTTPS so credentials are not sent over plaintext.
- **Tinyauth:** add a verification URL and an HTTPS login URL. RustProxy makes a bounded, body-free authorization request and can pass specifically allowed identity headers upstream. An origin URL automatically uses `/api/auth/nginx` (or set that path explicitly). This Nginx auth-request integration sends `X-Original-URL` and `X-Original-Method`, with a validated `X-Forwarded-For` and `X-Real-IP` for Tinyauth IP ACLs. It does **not** send `X-Forwarded-Host` or `X-Forwarded-URI` to the verifier, avoiding the `conflicting auth module headers` rejection introduced in Tinyauth 5.2.0 while keeping compatibility with earlier versions that implement the Nginx endpoint. Tinyauth has its own timeout and private-backend policy.
- **Tinyauth error pages (0.34.14):** RustProxy renders built-in, self-contained HTML for verifier failures: `502 Tinyauth connection error` if its HTTP client cannot reach Tinyauth (DNS/TCP/TLS/transport), `504 Tinyauth timeout` if the auth deadline expires, or `502 Tinyauth verification error` for unexpected verifier status or invalid/oversized data. The page always retains the HTTP error status, `Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8`, `Cache-Control: private, no-store` and `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`. Backend URLs, protocol errors and identity data are not shown to visitors. All of these cases **deny access** to the protected origin. HTTP `401`/`403` and configured login redirects remain unchanged. These auth-specific pages take precedence over custom Vhost/general HTTP error pages so the failure remains distinguishable.
- **Provider-neutral gateway error pages (0.34.15):** One embedded `src/admin/web/error_auth_provider.html` template renders a self-contained HTML page for **Tinyauth, Authelia, authentik, and future providers**, using only the safe provider display name and the failure category. It replaces the three vendor-specific `error_tinyauth_*.html` source files while preserving the familiar Tinyauth response titles and statuses. For example: `502 Tinyauth connection error` if its HTTP client cannot reach Tinyauth (DNS/TCP/TLS/transport), `504 Tinyauth timeout` if the auth deadline expires, or `502 Tinyauth verification error` for unexpected verifier status or invalid/oversized data. The page always retains the HTTP error status, `Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8`, `Cache-Control: private, no-store` and `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`. Backend URLs, protocol errors and identity data are not shown to visitors. All of these cases **deny access** to the protected origin. HTTP `401`/`403` and configured login redirects remain unchanged. These auth-specific pages take precedence over custom Vhost/general HTTP error pages so the failure remains distinguishable. The generic failure marker also protects Basic Auth denials and provider login redirects from being replaced by Vhost pages. HTTPS-verifier transport errors are classified as connection failures, truncated/oversized/invalid verifier responses as verification failures, and verification deadlines as timeouts.
- Point the verifier URL **directly** at the private Tinyauth service (for example `http://tinyauth:3000/api/auth/nginx`), rather than routing it through a second public proxy that might inject conflicting headers. Do not disable Tinyauth's header-spoofing protections. Confirm that Tinyauth trusts only the actual RustProxy address/network when enabling Tinyauth IP-based access controls (`TINYAUTH_AUTH_TRUSTEDPROXIES`).
- The two authentication integrations should not be enabled simultaneously for the same Vhost. Protected responses bypass unsafe shared caching. Confirm that login redirections and WebSockets behave as expected.
- **Authelia (0.34.15):** select **Authelia** under **Vhost → Authentication**. Enter the internal service origin (for example `http://authelia:9091`) and the public HTTPS login portal (for example `https://auth.example.com`); RustProxy calls `/api/authz/forward-auth`. It forwards trusted `X-Forwarded-*`, `X-Original-URL` and `X-Original-Method` metadata, verifies the provider result, returns provider-approved `302/303` login redirects only to the configured portal origin, and forwards configured `Remote-*` identity headers after stripping client-forged values. A `200` verifier response alone grants access. `401`/`403` deny; transport failures return 502 and timeouts 504. The Authelia `session.cookies` domains and `authelia_url` are defined in Authelia itself: protecting **unrelated registered domains** generally requires a login URL/cookie configuration within each domain, not one cookie from a single unrelated site.
- **authentik (0.34.15):** select **authentik** and enter the private outpost origin (for example `http://authentik:9000`), not an `/if/flow` login URL. RustProxy calls `/outpost.goauthentik.io/auth/nginx`, forwards verified `X-Authentik-*` identity headers, and responds to a `401` with a same-origin login start at `/outpost.goauthentik.io/start?rd=...`. RustProxy reserves `/outpost.goauthentik.io` (and descendants) on the protected application hostname and forwards them to the configured outpost **without checking authentication again**, after ordinary global/Vhost IP/country/rate rules. No manual Custom Location is needed for that path. In authentik create a separate **Proxy Provider → Forward auth (single application)** for each protected external application URL, assign it to the serving outpost, then enable that Vhost's integration. Multiple unrelated domains can share the same authentik installation; they do **not** share a browser cookie across domains.
- **Adding another provider:** Keep the new vendor's `Settings` and `Compiled` implementation under `src/<provider>/mod.rs` and its tests under `src/<provider>/tests.rs`. Implement the `auth_provider::Provider` trait for runtime authorization, optional `reserved_path`/`serve_reserved` hooks for same-host callbacks, and (for Nginx-compatible providers) the shared `forward_auth::Adapter`. Add an enabled-by-default-false Vhost settings field, validate mutual exclusivity in `auth_provider::Selection`, compile it into the **single** `CompiledFrontend.auth_provider` slot, and register the method in the panel. Reuse `auth_provider::deny` / `auth_provider::gateway_failure` instead of adding separate HTML templates. Existing `tinyauth`, `authelia`, and `authentik` configuration keys remain backward compatible.
- **Per-provider security:** The verifier/outpost connection uses TLS certificate verification for HTTPS with optional additional CA, explicit private-backend opt-in and the existing safe-address/local-listener restrictions. Only allowlisted response identity fields and bounded session cookies reach applications/browsers. Inaccessible, malformed or timed-out authorization services **deny** origin access. Both Authelia and authentik are disabled by default; old Tinyauth settings are retained when inactive. Only one of the four authentication methods can be enabled for one Vhost. Protected responses bypass shared caching. Confirm both allowed/denied requests, logins, sessions, redirects and WebSockets with the actual provider before rollout.
### Minimal Vhost configuration examples (inside a Vhost object)
Authelia:
```json
"authelia": {
"enabled": true,
"url": "http://authelia.internal:9091",
"login_url": "https://auth.example.com",
"allow_private": true
}
```
authentik (same URL for the outpost check and its reserved public path):
```json
"authentik": {
"enabled": true,
"url": "http://authentik.internal:9000",
"allow_private": true
}
```
Set `basic_auth.enabled`, `tinyauth.enabled`, and the other provider's `enabled` to `false` for these examples. These are fragments, not whole Vhost documents. Protect the public provider portal with a separate Vhost **without** forward auth to avoid recursive redirects.
Do not use a User-Agent blocklist as the primary access control: HTTP clients can forge their User-Agent freely.
