Free Open Source Electronic Document Management System
Project description
Mayan EDMS is a document management system. Its main purpose is to store, introspect, and categorize files, with a strong emphasis on preserving the contextual and business information of documents. It can also OCR, preview, label, sign, send, and receive thoses files. Other features of interest are its workflow system, role based access control, and REST API.
The easiest way to use Mayan EDMS is by using the official Docker image. Make sure Docker is properly installed and working before attempting to install Mayan EDMS.
For the complete set of installation instructions visit the Mayan EDMS documentation at: https://docs.mayan-edms.com/parts/installation.html
The final version of the book “Exploring Mayan EDMS” available now!

Load config.env in all jobs.
Move common SSH initialization to its own template tags.
Convert YAML triple ‘’’ quotes to a single quote.
Sanitize tag labels to avoid XSS abuse (CVE-2022-47419: Mayan EDMS Tag XSS). This is a limited scope weakness of the tagging system markup that can be used to display an arbitrary text when selecting a tag for attachment to or removal from a document.
It is not possible to circumvent Mayan EDMS access control system or expose arbitrary information with this weakness.
Attempting to exploit this weakness requires a privileged account and is not possible to enable from a guest or an anonymous account. Visitors to a Mayan EDMS installation cannot exploit this weakness.
It is also being incorrectly reported that this weakness can be used to steal the session cookie and impersonate users. Since version 1.4 (March 23, 2012) Django has included the httponly attribute for the session cookie. This means that the session cookie data, including sessionid, is no longer accessible from JavaScript. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.1/releases/1.4/
Mayan EDMS currently uses Django 3.2. Under this version of Django The SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY defaults to True, which enables the httponly for the session cookie making it inaccessible to JavaScript and therefore not available for impersonation via session hijacking. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/settings/#session-cookie-httponly
Django’s SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY setting is not currently exposed by Mayan EDMS’ setting system, therefore it is not possible to disable this protection by conventional means.
Any usage of this weakness remains logged in the event system making it easy to track down any bad actors.
Due to all these factors, the surface of attack of this weakness is very limited, if any.
There are no known actual or theoretical attacks exploiting this weakness to expose or destroy data.
Add a custom REST API exception handler to workaround inconsistent validation exception behavior in Django REST framework (https://github.com/encode/django-rest-framework/issues/2145).
Add OCI metadata annotations

Silence Docker Compose warning “MAYAN_WORKER_CUSTOM_QUEUE_LIST variable is not set”. Closes GitLab issue #1129. Thanks to GR Buck (@graybuck) for the report.
4.2.12 (2022-11-13)
Fixes from version 4.1.10.
Add a subclass of Path that adds the method is_relative_to for Python versions lower than 3.9.
Add a patch for Python’s CVE-2007-4559 (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2007-4559).
This is a language level vulnerability which exposed older versions of Mayan EDMS only when downloading JavaScript dependencies from the NPM registry.
Exploiting this vulnerability requires compromising an existing package hosted on the NPM registry and adding Python code specifically targeting Mayan EDMS. As part of the project’s design philosophies, dependencies are only downloaded from authoritative locations and each dependency is pinned to a specific version to guarantee immutable releases.
Due to all these factors surface of attack of this vulnerability is very limited for older versions of Mayan EDMS, it is also very improbable, very difficulty to accomplish and very difficult to remain undetected.
There are no known actual or theoretical attacks for Mayan EDMS exploiting this vulnerability.
Thanks to the TrellixVulnTeam for the pull request which lead to this Mayan EDMS specific patch.

Include the asset image hash into the asset transformation hash calculation. This change invalidates all cached page images that use an asset if the asset image is modified.
Improve the way the absolute coordinates of the percentage asset paste transformation are calculated.
Use redirection instead of the output_file argument to allow the SANE scanner source to work with more SANE scanner versions.
4.1.2 (2021-10-27)

Consolidate the workflow action help text.
Fix issue when attempting to create a Document version page OCR update workflow action. Instead of the model class, the template form field now passes the app_label and the model_name of the model via the widget attributes to avoid Django’s attribute template to attempt getting a string representation of the model.

Update AddRemoveView to only call the underlying add or remove methods only if there are objects to act upon instead of calling the method with an empty queryset which would trigger unwanted events.
Add ExternalContentTypeObjectAPIViewMixin to the REST API app. This mixin simplifies working with models that act upon another object via their Content Type, such as the ACLs.
Update the ACL app to support multiple foreign object permission inheritance. Support for GenericForeignKey non default ct_field, and fk_field was also added.
Added support to export the global events list, object events list and user events list.
Registering a model to receive events will cause it to have the object event view and object event subscription links bound too. This can be disabled with the bind_links argument. The default menu to bind the links is the “List facet”. This can be changed via the menu argument.
