Security:
- Fix IDOR in delete/update comment (add ticket visibility check)
- XSS defense-in-depth in DashboardView active filters
- Replace innerHTML with DOM construction in toast.js
- Remove redundant real_escape_string in check_duplicates
- Add rate limiting to get_template, download_attachment, audit_log,
saved_filters, user_preferences endpoints
Bug fixes:
- Session timeout now reads from config instead of hardcoded 18000
- TicketController uses $GLOBALS['config'] instead of duplicate .env parsing
- Add DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL to centralized config
- Cleanup script uses hashmap for O(1) ticket ID lookups
Dead code removal (~100 lines):
- Remove dead getTicketComments() from TicketModel (wrong bind_param type)
- Remove dead getCategories()/getTypes() from DashboardController
- Remove ~80 lines dead Discord webhook code from update_ticket API
Consolidation:
- Create api/bootstrap.php for shared API setup (auth, CSRF, rate limit)
- Convert 6 API endpoints to use bootstrap
- Extract escapeHtml/getTicketIdFromUrl into shared utils.js
- Batch save for user preferences (1 request instead of 7)
