- Untrusted signup data is sanitized before it is displayed. Values that
come from a new account — its username, email domain, and IP address — are
cleaned before they appear in moderation messages and the web UI, so an
applicant can no longer use them to change what a moderator sees. - Email addresses are no longer written to the logs in plain text. A full
address is recorded only when PII logging is explicitly switched on;
otherwise a short fingerprint is used. This now holds for every log line, not
just most of them. - Pending signups survive temporary Mastodon errors. If the bot's
background check of a pending account hits a one-off failure — a timeout, a
dropped connection, or a maintenance window — it retries instead of assuming
the account was rejected, so a legitimate signup is not silently removed and
moderators are not shown a false reason. - The external email-reputation lookup is hardened. The address sent to the
UserCheck service is validated and encoded before the request is built, the
same way the IP lookup already works.
