Summary
AI summaryPatches four authorization issues including a high‑severity PKI private‑key disclosure and adds an admin‑configurable default landing page.
Full changelog
MeshMonitor v4.2.2
Security update + multi-source bug fixes. This release patches the MM-SEC-5/6/7/8 follow-on advisory (four authorization issues uncovered in a follow-up audit to the v4.2.1 disclosure), introduces an admin-configurable Default Landing Page, and fixes several multi-source routing bugs from the 4.0/4.2 line. The most severe finding (MM-SEC-5) leaked the local node's PKI private key to any logged-in user, and MM-SEC-6/7 exposed channel PSKs through endpoints missed by the v4.2.1 patches. All MeshMonitor 4.x deployments should upgrade. Operators of multi-tenant or untrusted-user installations should also rotate their local node's PKI key, any exposed channel PSKs, and any source credentials that non-admin users may have read.
Action Required
- Rotate your local node's PKI private key if untrusted users had login access on 4.2.1 or earlier.
- Rotate any channel PSKs that were exposed.
- Rotate any source credentials (
password/apiKey) that may have been read by non-admin users.- Full advisory:

Security
- MM-SEC-5/6/7/8 follow-on advisory — Four authorization fixes, including a high-severity PKI private-key disclosure, two PSK leak channels missed by the MM-SEC-2 patch, and a source credential leak. (#2915)
Features
- Admin-configurable Default Landing Page — Choose what users see at the root URL: the unified multi-source dashboard (default) or any single configured source. Lives under Settings → Appearance, admin-only. (#2921, closes #2917)
Bug Fixes
- Multi-source: Exchange Node Info / Position / Neighbor Info — These actions now route through the source the user selected instead of always going through the default. (#2916, closes #2911)
- Auto Traceroute checkbox — Now hydrates from the per-source value instead of a stale global, so the toggle reflects what's actually configured on each source. (#2918, closes #2914)
- Node position override — Writes to the live source row instead of the legacy
defaultrow, so manual coordinate overrides actually render. (#2913, closes #2902) - Auto-upgrade sidecar — Clears the stale
.upgrade-statusfile before triggering a new upgrade, preventing the watchdog from looping on stale state. (#2920) - Desktop x64 macOS DMG — Now ships with x86_64 native binaries instead of accidentally bundling the arm64
better_sqlite3.node. (#2912, closes #2901) - Desktop script storage — Honors
DATA_DIRso desktop builds can persist user scripts in the configured data directory. (#2919) /api/scan-remote-admin— Handles empty request bodies cleanly instead of 500-ing. (#2910)
Documentation
- New Default Landing Page section in
docs/features/settings.md, linked from the Appearance section ofdocs/features/global-settings.md. (#2922)
