 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.10.1] - 2026-08-28
+
+### Security
+
+- Fixed a path-traversal vulnerability in event-image, branding (logo/favicon), and event-attachment uploads: the stored filename embedded the client-supplied `originalname` unsanitized, so a crafted filename (e.g. containing `../`) could write the uploaded file outside the intended `public/uploads` subfolder anywhere the server process could write. Uploaded files are now always saved under a server-generated random name; the original filename is preserved only as display metadata.
+- `express-rate-limit` was declared as a root-only dependency despite being required directly by the backend (`backend/src/index.js`) — a plain `cd backend && npm install`, as documented in the deployment guide, would not have installed it. It's now a proper `backend/package.json` dependency.
+- Bumped `next` (frontend) off a version affected by a critical unauthenticated RCE in the React Flight protocol (GHSA-9qr9-h5gf-34mp) and several other CVEs, and switched it from an exact pin to `^15.5.24` so future patch releases install automatically.
+- Bumped `multer`, `nodemailer`, `jsonwebtoken`, and `uuid` (backend) to versions fixing DoS, SMTP/CRLF-injection, HMAC-verification, and buffer-bounds advisories; added an `overrides` entry so the vulnerable `uuid` nested under `exceljs` is also patched. Ran `npm audit fix` across all three workspaces (root/backend/frontend) — 0 known vulnerabilities remain.
+- `jwt.verify()` now pins `algorithms: ['HS256']` explicitly rather than trusting the algorithm from the token header.
+- Uploaded assets served from `/uploads` now get `Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'; sandbox` and `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, so an uploaded SVG containing a `<script>` can no longer execute if opened directly.
+
+## [1.10.0] - 2026-08-28
+
+### Added
+
+- Event detail pages now have an "Add to calendar" button, and registration confirmation emails include an "Add to calendar" link (requires `BACKEND_URL` to be set), both downloading a `.ics` file for the event.
+- SEO: the site now serves a `sitemap.xml` (every public page plus every event) and `robots.txt`, and event/event-list pages have proper Open Graph/Twitter metadata for link previews.
+- Error monitoring via Sentry — set `SENTRY_DSN` (backend) and `NEXT_PUBLIC_SENTRY_DSN` (frontend) to enable; a no-op otherwise. Captures unhandled backend errors/promise rejections and frontend errors.
+- Nightly local database backups (`pg_dump`, gzipped, 02:00, 14-day retention by default) with a new Site Settings → Backups tab to view, manually trigger, and download them. Requires `pg_dump` to be installed on the app server; set `BACKUP_ENABLED=false` to disable. Local-disk only — not uploaded anywhere else.
+- Admin audit trail: refunds, donation assign/unassign, manual registrations, staff-initiated cancellations, event create/update/delete, and settings changes are now logged with who/when/what, viewable at Admin → Audit log.
+- Starter backend test suite (Jest) covering the early-bird tranche pricing logic and donation-balance calculation — the two areas with the most complex money-handling history in this changelog.
+
+## [1.9.5] - 2026-08-27
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The public event-alias route (`/:redirectUrl`, used for short links like `/camp-2025`) is a catch-all matching any unmatched top-level path, so every bot/scanner probe for a nonexistent page (`/wp-login.php`, `/.env`, etc.) was hitting the backend and firing a live database query. Both the frontend route and the `GET /api/events/by-alias/:redirectUrl` endpoint now reject anything that isn't a plausible alias (letters/numbers/hyphens/underscores) before touching the database, instead of forwarding scanner noise straight through — this traffic pattern could exhaust the database connection pool and take the server down under load.
+
+### Added
+
+- PM2 (`ecosystem.config.js`) now restarts either process if it exceeds 500MB of memory, instead of letting an unbounded leak run until the OS OOM-kills it.
+
+## [1.9.4] - 2026-08-26
+
+### Added
+
+- New `TRUST_PROXY` backend env var — set it when the app runs behind a reverse proxy (e.g. nginx on a separate server) so rate limiting reads the real client IP from `X-Forwarded-For` instead of the proxy's. Accepts a hop count, `true`/`false`, or trusted proxy IP(s)/CIDR(s).
+
+## [1.9.3] - 2026-08-26
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The server used to hard-crash (`process.exit(1)`) on any unhandled promise rejection, so a single missed error handler anywhere in the app's fire-and-forget notification code (email/WhatsApp sending) could take the whole server down. It now logs the error and keeps running.
+- Accounts created on someone's behalf (at-the-door walk-in registration, or manual registration from the Admin/Supervisor dashboard) now get their activation link (email or WhatsApp, whichever they have) sent immediately when the account is created, instead of only on their first failed login attempt — matching what the Terms of Use already promised.
+- Manual registration with a real email address used to create the account already active with a fixed, undisclosed password (`Hope123`) — the visitor had no way to know it. That account is now created inactive and gets the same immediate activation link, so the visitor sets their own password — unless a password was supplied directly (see below), in which case it's activated immediately with no link needed.
+- The self-service kiosk's "Create an account" password field never actually worked — the account was always created with a different password behind the scenes, so visitors who set one couldn't log in with it. Manual registration now honours a caller-supplied password and activates the account immediately instead of discarding it.
+- Removed the "Guest (no account)" checkboxes from the Manual Registration pages (both the current one and the legacy form) and the equivalent flag from the at-the-door kiosk — they stopped affecting backend behaviour once every walk-in account started being created inactive with an activation link. The self-service kiosk's own "Create an account" toggle still controls whether that link is sent, since that one is the visitor's own choice rather than staff acting on their behalf.
+
+## [1.9.2] - 2026-08-22
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Contact-only events (no registration possible) were still getting the daily summary email — it now skips them since there's nothing to summarize.
+
+## [1.9.1] - 2026-08-22
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The browser tab title and homepage "Welcome to..." heading always showed the app's built-in default name instead of the organisation name configured in Site Settings → Organisation.
+- The backend's status page (`/`) and API docs page (`/docs`) always showed "Cross Code Events" instead of the configured organisation name.
+
+## [1.9.0] - 2026-08-21
+
+### Added
+
+- Events now have an optional Location field (address), defaulting to the organisation's configured address when creating a new event. Wherever an address is shown — event admin form, public event page, event card listings, the Contact page, and Site Settings → Organisation — there's now a "Directions"/"View on map" link, and the event detail and Contact pages also show an embedded Google Maps view (no API key required).
