Background

docker-compose.yml embeds postgres:postgres (username and password) in plain text. Anyone with access to the repository can see the credentials, and they are the same defaults used in production if never rotated.

What to do

  • Replace the inline POSTGRES_USER / POSTGRES_PASSWORD values in docker-compose.yml with variable references, e.g. ${POSTGRES_USER} / ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}.
  • Provide a .env.example with safe placeholder values.
  • Update README / developer docs to explain that a .env file is required before running docker compose up.
  • Ensure .env is in .gitignore.

Acceptance criteria

  • docker-compose.yml contains no hardcoded passwords.
  • .env.example exists with documented placeholders.
  • .gitignore excludes .env.
  • docker compose config renders correctly when a valid .env is present.

Already resolved. docker-compose.yml uses variable substitution (${POSTGRES_USER}, ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}, ${POSTGRES_DB}) -- no plaintext credentials present.
