Summary

Implements a complete educational resource moderation queue where resource creations, updates, and deletions enter a pending review queue instead of going live directly. Live resources stay active on the site while proposed edits or deletions are pending review.

Key Changes

  • Change Request System: Added resource_change_requests schema, model, and relationships to stage changes with pending/approved/rejected statuses and audit tracking.
  • Resource Actions Queuing: Routed ResourceController store, update, destroy, bulk images, and bulk videos through ResourceChangeRequest helper methods.
  • Moderator Dashboard: Created ResourceModerationController and Inertia view at /admin/moderation/resources protected by moderate resources permission for approving/rejecting requests with feedback notes.
  • Permission & Seeders: Added migration for moderate resources permission, updated RolePermissionSeeder, and created ResourceChangeRequestSeeder.
  • Resource Tree Badges: Display amber Edit Pending and rose Deletion Pending badges in ResourceRow.vue and lock modifications while under review.
  • Author Deletion: Added delete policy allowing authors to request deletion of their own resources.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Resource creation, updates, deletions, and bulk imports are submitted for moderation rather than applied immediately.
    • Moderators can review requests, filter them by status, approve changes, or reject them with optional feedback.
    • Resource listings show whether an edit or deletion is pending.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Resource owners can request deletion without the delete permission, unless the resource is frozen.
    • Users without ownership or the required permission cannot request deletion.
    • Nested folder navigation and vote notifications now use complete breadcrumb paths.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Resource creation, updates, and deletions now create moderation requests instead of changing resources immediately. Moderators can review requests in a new admin page and approve or reject them. The change also updates node breadcrumb handling, admin navigation, and vote notification URLs.

Changes

Resource change moderation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Change request records
database/migrations/*resource_change_requests*, app/Models/ResourceChangeRequest.php, app/Models/Resource.php, routes/console.php
A change request table and model define request payloads, statuses, review details, and relationships. A daily model-prune schedule is added for old reviewed requests.
Submit resource changes
app/Http/Controllers/Admin/ResourceController.php, app/Policies/ResourcePolicy.php, routes/admin.php, resources/js/components/admin/ResourceRow.vue, tests/Feature/AdminResourceTest.php
Resource actions and bulk imports submit requests. The delete policy checks whether a resource is frozen and whether the user owns it or has the delete ability. Resource rows show pending status and disable conflicting actions. Tests cover submission and authorization.
Review and apply requests
app/Http/Controllers/Admin/ResourceModerationController.php, routes/admin.php, database/migrations/*moderate_resources*, database/seeders/RolePermissionSeeder.php, tests/Feature/AdminResourceTest.php
Moderators can list, approve, and reject requests. Approval applies requested changes and records review details. Rejection records optional feedback and removes applicable staged files.
Moderation interface and sample data
resources/js/pages/admin/moderation/Resources.vue, resources/js/layouts/AdminLayout.vue, app/Http/Controllers/Admin/NodeController.php, database/seeders/*ResourceChangeRequest*, database/seeders/DatabaseSeeder.php
The admin page displays and filters requests and provides review controls. Node views include pending request data. Seeders add sample requests and the moderation navigation link.
Node breadcrumb paths
app/Models/Node.php, app/Http/Controllers/NodeController.php, app/Notifications/NodeVoteNotification.php, resources/js/pages/admin/Node.vue, tests/Feature/NodeVoteNotificationTest.php
Node breadcrumb paths are cached for seven days. Admin node views display the paths, and vote notification URLs use breadcrumb slugs.

Merge Risk

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 25ed0

Approving edits can erase existing resource content, concurrent reviews can leave resources with missing files, nested breadcrumbs and vote links can go stale after folder renames, and the formatting check fails. These should be addressed before merge.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 25ed0

Moderation permissions constrain access, but the new lifecycle does not reliably serialize review decisions or preserve folder-freeze restrictions through approval. File deletion can outlive a failed database transaction, and resource deletion removes its review history. These weaknesses affect content integrity, recovery, and accountability.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Pending status is checked before entering the review transaction, with no locked reread or conditional state transition. Concurrent approvals can create duplicate live resources from one request; overlapping approval and rejection can apply content while recording rejection and deleting its staged file. Submission-side existence checks also do not atomically enforce one pending request per resource. Status filters and transactions are present, but do not serialize these decisions.
  • Medium · security · inferred: Creation and update requests enforce effective folder freezing at submission, but their approval branches apply persisted payloads without rechecking the current source or target folder. A node or ancestor frozen during the review interval can therefore still receive approved creations or edits. The moderator permission limits who can trigger this outcome, but the existing freeze controls do not express a moderator override.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: Approval and rejection delete files inside database transactions without compensating recovery. In particular, approving a deletion after its folder becomes frozen removes the file before the resource deletion hook aborts; database rollback preserves the resource and pending request, but cannot restore the file. A later failure in a review batch can similarly roll back earlier database changes after their files were deleted. This newly deferred and batched workflow weakens failure containment and retry safety.
  • Medium · security · inferred: The new request records cascade on resource deletion. Successful deletion approval therefore removes the deletion request and all earlier requests for that resource before the handler attempts to record approval, reviewer, and review time. This defeats the new review history precisely for destructive actions, independently of the normal 30-day pruning policy.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Moderation authority is global over selectable pending request IDs, without a per-node or per-author restriction. A concurrent or failed batch can therefore affect multiple selected resources across nodes. Ordinary contributors remain constrained by creation permission or resource ownership/edit/delete authority; no tenant, infrastructure, credential, or service-level privilege expansion was established.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A contributor can submit while a folder is unfrozen and have a moderator later apply creation or update after it is frozen. Separately, overlapping authorized review calls can consume the same pending snapshot and produce contradictory terminal outcomes. These are source-supported control and integrity concerns, not demonstrated anonymous exploits.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Admin routes require authentication, verification, view admin, and throttling. Creation requires create resources; resource updates and deletion use policies; review requires moderate resources. The registered permission middleware rejects missing identity or insufficient permission. Default seeding grants all permissions to admin, while editor and manager receive only view admin.
  • observed — Staged files use the same default storage mechanism as live uploads, and previews use Storage::url rather than a request-status-aware download endpoint. The repository supports private local, public local, and S3 disks. Actual production object access was not supplied, so public access to pending files is unresolved rather than a verified exposure.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Database rollback cannot recover files already deleted during review. Pending-only filters help sequential repetition, and rejection avoids deleting a staged path that matches the current live file, but neither control protects against concurrent stale snapshots or partial failure. Cascading request deletion also removes destructive-action accountability.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Serialize submission and terminal review transitions around current request/resource state, revalidate applicable freeze controls before side effects, and make storage cleanup retryable after durable database decisions. Preserve deletion audit records independently of the deleted resource.
  • proposed — Define staged-file access and cleanup ownership explicitly, including cancellation by parent deletion and rollback. If preapproval isolation is required, use private staging with authorized previews. Document whether direct bulk renaming is an intentional moderation exception or should enter the same review lifecycle.

The pending-request check has a race, and the update overwrites unrelated fields.

Two requests sent at the same time can both pass the exists() check. The resource then gets two pending requests. hasOne shows only one of them, and approving both applies the changes in an undefined order. sanitizePayload also stores missing keys as null, for example content. On approval, $resource->update($payload) then clears fields the author did not send. Lock the resource row with lockForUpdate inside a transaction, or add a unique partial constraint. When building the update, drop null keys that the request did not send.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Approval has a check-then-act race and deletes files before the commit.

The status !== 'pending' check runs outside the transaction and without a lock. If two moderators approve the same request at the same time, a create request produces two resources. Storage::delete also runs inside the transaction. If the transaction later rolls back, the file is already gone, for example when the deleting hook aborts on a frozen node. To fix this:

  • Inside the transaction, reload the request with lockForUpdate() and check its status again.
  • Move the file deletions to DB::afterCommit.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Create requests lose the author, and approval can bypass freeze checks.

sanitizePayload drops user_id. As a result, a resource created on approval has user_id = null. The author then cannot edit or delete it under the new author-based policy. Approval also writes to the node directly and does not re-check isEffectivelyFrozen(). A request submitted before a folder is frozen can still be applied after the freeze. In approve, set user_id from $changeRequest->user_id for create requests, and reject the approval when the target node is frozen.

forgetCachedPermissions() already clears the permission cache. Cache::flush() clears the whole application cache store on every deploy, including sessions and rate limits if they share that store.

Seeding is not idempotent, and it can reuse unrelated resources.

Resource::where('resource_type', 'note')->first() picks any existing note. The seeder then adds pending update requests that overwrite that resource's title and content on approval. The $deleteCandidateResource query takes any other resource. A moderator can approve the delete request and remove real seeded data. Running the seeder twice also doubles every ResourceChangeRequest row.

Create dedicated sample resources with firstOrCreate on a unique title. Also guard the request rows with firstOrCreate.

reject has the same unlocked status check, and it can delete a file that a just-approved resource uses.

reject also loads pending requests outside the transaction and takes no lock. The failing sequence is:

  1. Moderator A approves a create request and Moderator B rejects the same request at the same time.
  2. Both handlers read status = 'pending'.
  3. approve creates a live Resource with file_path set to the staged file.
  4. reject runs Storage::delete($stagedFile) and overwrites the status to rejected.

The result is a live resource whose file is missing, plus a request record that says it was rejected.

In both handlers, reload the requests with lockForUpdate() inside the transaction, filter them by pending again, and delete staged files only after the commit.

Invalidate descendant breadcrumbs when an ancestor changes.

If an ancestor is renamed or moved, its observer clears only that ancestor’s breadcrumb key. Descendants can retain the old names or slugs for seven days. A stale slug produces incorrect breadcrumbs and can produce a broken vote-notification URL. Clear the affected descendants’ keys when a node’s breadcrumb fields change, or use a cache strategy that invalidates the full subtree.

Preserve omitted update fields in moderation payloads.

UpdateResourceRequest does not require content or external_url. ResourceController::update passes the validated array to recordUpdate. An edit that omits either field therefore stores it as null, and approval can clear the existing value through $resource->update($changeRequest->payload).

node_id is required, so the NOT NULL failure case does not apply. Filter update payloads by submitted keys. Keep the full whitelist for create requests.

Proposed fix
         if (! isset($data['file_path']) && $resource->file_path) {
             $data['file_path'] = $resource->file_path;
