Dashy's release-per-PR run keeps closing authentication gaps around header auth and OIDC

self-hosteddashboardhomelabauthenticationdependency-updates
◆Current state
Dashy ships one release per merged PR. Recent releases fix header auth for users not listed in the config, OIDC re-login losing the requested page, and a theme flash plus sub-page styling bug. The two releases on 7 November are a ten-package Dependabot bump and a fix for a slow sub-page load replacing the page the user had already moved to.
◆Where it's heading
Authentication is the recurring thread: lookalike-origin trust on October 31, then header auth for unlisted users and OIDC redirects on November 2. Dashy is hardening its auth options for setups behind reverse proxies and identity providers, while the rest of the stream is small UI fixes and dependency updates.
◆Prediction
More single-PR patch releases, likely including further auth and SSO fixes; nothing in the entries points to a feature release.

    Dashy 4.9.15 fixes header auth for users not in the config

    The second header-auth fix in three days, after the lookalike-origin change in 4.9.12. It matters for setups that authenticate through a reverse proxy, where users missing from the config were mishandled.

    Dashy 4.9.14 keeps the requested page after OIDC re-login

    After an OIDC re-login users now land on the page they asked for instead of losing it. A small fix in the same auth thread.

    Dashy 4.9.12 fixes auth-header trust of lookalike origins

    Fixes auth-header handling so lookalike origins are no longer trusted. The one security change in this run, and worth taking for instances behind header auth.
