Adds the complete TREK documentation wiki covering installation, trip planning, admin panel, MCP/AI integration, addons, and operations. Also fixes encrypt-at-rest gaps: mapbox_access_token, Synology credentials, per-user webhook/ntfy tokens, and photo passphrases are now rotated by migrate-encryption.ts and stored encrypted via settingsService.

Internal Network Access
TREK makes outbound HTTP requests when you configure integrations such as Immich or Synology Photos. By default, it blocks requests to private and local IP ranges to prevent server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks. You need to allow internal network access when those services are hosted on your LAN.
Default behavior
All outbound requests go through an SSRF guard (ssrfGuard.ts). The guard resolves the hostname to an IP address before allowing the connection and blocks addresses in private ranges.
Always blocked (no override possible)
These ranges are blocked regardless of any setting:
| Range | Description |
|---|---|
127.0.0.0/8, ::1 |
Loopback |
0.0.0.0/8 |
Unspecified |
169.254.0.0/16, fe80::/10 |
Link-local / cloud metadata endpoints |
::ffff:127.x.x.x, ::ffff:169.254.x.x |
IPv4-mapped loopback and link-local |
In addition, hostnames ending in .local or .internal are always blocked regardless of ALLOW_INTERNAL_NETWORK. These suffixes are readily abused for hostname-based bypasses.
The hostname localhost is not blocked at the hostname stage, but it resolves to 127.0.0.1 which is caught by the loopback rule above and is therefore always blocked.
Blocked unless ALLOW_INTERNAL_NETWORK=true
| Range | Description |
|---|---|
10.0.0.0/8 |
RFC-1918 private |
172.16.0.0/12 |
RFC-1918 private |
192.168.0.0/16 |
RFC-1918 private |
100.64.0.0/10 |
CGNAT / Tailscale shared address space |
fc00::/7 |
IPv6 ULA |
| IPv4-mapped RFC-1918 variants | e.g. ::ffff:10.x, ::ffff:192.168.x |
When to enable
Set ALLOW_INTERNAL_NETWORK=true when Immich, Synology Photos, or another integrated service is hosted on your local network and you need TREK to reach it.
See Environment-Variables for how to set environment variables.
Admin: Set
ALLOW_INTERNAL_NETWORK=truein Environment-Variables before configuring Immich or Synology on a LAN.
DNS rebinding protection
Even with ALLOW_INTERNAL_NETWORK=true, TREK pins the DNS resolution to prevent rebinding attacks. When the guard checks a URL, it resolves the hostname once and records the IP. The outbound connection is then made directly to that IP using a pinned dispatcher (via undici), so the hostname cannot re-resolve to a different address between the check and the actual request.
Audit log
When a user saves an Immich URL that resolves to a private IP, TREK records an immich.private_ip_configured entry in the Audit-Log including the URL and the resolved IP address. This audit event is specific to Immich; Synology Photos does not emit an equivalent event.
