Follow-up to #68. Removes the `NEXTAUTH_SECRET=secret` / `CALENDSO_ENCRYPTION_KEY=secret` ARG defaults so a deployment that forgets to set them cannot silently run on publicly-known values; CI now passes an explicit build-time placeholder (the runner stage never carries these, and `scripts/start.sh` refuses to boot on unset, `secret`, or placeholder values). Adds `NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDER_ID` / `NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDGRID_SENDER_NAME` build args so branding stays env-driven, switches GHA cache export from `mode=max` to `mode=min` so the secret-bearing builder stage is no longer published to the shared cache, and bumps the example-app `next` to 15.5.24. Verified: `tsc -p apps/web` clean, webhook suites pass.


Note

Medium Risk
Changes secret handling and container boot requirements—misconfigured deployments will fail to start until runtime secrets are set, which is intended but operationally sensitive.

Overview
Hardens Docker builds and startup so NEXTAUTH_SECRET and CALENDSO_ENCRYPTION_KEY can no longer fall back to the known default secret. The Dockerfile drops insecure ARG defaults; GitHub Actions passes explicit build-time placeholders so next build still satisfies next.config.ts, while real secrets must be supplied at runtime.

scripts/start.sh now centralizes checks in reject_insecure_secret, failing fast on empty values, secret, or the CI placeholder. The deploy workflow documents that placeholders are build-only and keeps GHA cache export at mode=min so builder-stage env (including secrets used during build) is not pushed to the shared cache.

Also wires NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDER_ID and NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDGRID_SENDER_NAME through the Docker build for branding, and bumps the credential-sync example app’s Next.js from 15.5.21 to 15.5.24 (lockfile included).

…hrink GHA cache export

The image baked NEXTAUTH_SECRET=secret and CALENDSO_ENCRYPTION_KEY=secret as ARG defaults, so anyone could forge session JWTs or decrypt stored OAuth credentials on a deployment that forgot to set them. The defaults are gone; CI passes an explicit build-time placeholder because next.config.ts asserts both during next build, and the runner stage never carries them, so the real value has to come from the runtime environment. start.sh now refuses to boot on an unset, 'secret', or placeholder value. Also adds NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDER_ID and NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDGRID_SENDER_NAME build args so branding stays configurable, and switches cache-to from mode=max (which exported the secret-bearing builder stage into the shared Actions cache) to mode=min.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Docker build now receives secret placeholders and sender identifiers as build arguments. Runtime startup rejects insecure secret values. The credential-sync example updates its Next.js dependency.

Changes

Container configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Build-time configuration
.github/workflows/deploy-docker.yml, Dockerfile
The workflow passes secret placeholders for next build. The Docker builder accepts sender identifiers and exposes them in its environment.
Runtime secret validation
scripts/start.sh
Startup uses a shared validation function for both secrets. It rejects empty values, secret, and build-time-placeholder-not-used-at-runtime.

Credential sync dependency

Layer / File(s) Summary
Next.js dependency update
example-apps/credential-sync/package.json
The credential-sync example updates Next.js from 15.5.21 to 15.5.24.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1f079

Deployed images can ignore configured sender branding and use the default Crove identity for outbound messages. The CI and Compose build paths should be corrected before merge.

Code Review

This pull request removes insecure default secrets from the Dockerfile, introduces new build arguments for sender configurations, updates the next dependency in an example app, and refactors the startup guard in scripts/start.sh to use a helper function. Feedback points out a critical security vulnerability in scripts/start.sh where enabling shell tracing (set -x) causes sensitive production secrets to be leaked into container logs when passed to the helper function. It is recommended to temporarily disable tracing during these checks.

Security Vulnerability: Sensitive Secrets Leaked in Logs

Since set -x (xtrace) is enabled at the top of this script, the shell prints every command and its expanded arguments to stderr. Calling reject_insecure_secret with the actual secret values ($NEXTAUTH_SECRET and $CALENDSO_ENCRYPTION_KEY) will print these highly sensitive production secrets directly into the container logs.

To prevent this, temporarily disable shell tracing (set +x) before evaluating or passing any sensitive environment variables, and re-enable it (set -x) afterward.

Forward the configured sender values into the Docker build.

The workflow omits NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDER_ID and NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDGRID_SENDER_NAME from build-args. Dockerfile defaults both arguments to Crove before next build, and packages/lib/constants.ts uses those build-time values for SENDER_ID and SENDER_NAME. Add the configured values to this workflow block so the built image preserves the deployment sender identity.

Pass both sender values as Compose build arguments.

docker-compose.yml loads .env into the running calcom container, but its build.args omits NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDER_ID and NEXT_PUBLIC_SENDGRID_SENDER_NAME. The Dockerfile therefore uses Crove during yarn workspace @calcom/web run build, and the configured runtime values cannot change the compiled sender identity. Add both variables to calcom.build.args.
