Closes madanrajsagar#129 Added verifyToken middleware to /send-email endpoint so that emergency SOS emails can only be sent by authenticated users. Previously anyone could POST to /send-email and trigger emergency alerts to contacts, enabling spam and alert fatigue attacks. Signed-off-by: Xenon010101 <xenon010101@users.noreply.github.com>
…nting Closes madanrajsagar#70, Closes madanrajsagar#126 - Reduced express.json body limit from 8mb to 1mb (8mb was excessive for most endpoints and increased abuse potential) - Removed duplicate app.use(userVideoRoutes) which caused redundant middleware execution and potential double-prefixing issues Signed-off-by: Xenon010101 <xenon010101@users.noreply.github.com>
Closes madanrajsagar#62 Added isValidIncidentId check (non-empty string, max 64 chars) with Express router.param middleware so all /:incidentId routes reject malformed IDs with a clean 400 response instead of processing them. Signed-off-by: Xenon010101 <xenon010101@users.noreply.github.com>
Closes madanrajsagar#59 Added MAX_CACHE_SIZE (500 entries) limit to both recentRouteCache and recentGeocodeCache with LRU eviction (deletes oldest entry when full) to prevent unbounded memory growth under heavy load. Signed-off-by: Xenon010101 <xenon010101@users.noreply.github.com>

Closes #59
Root cause:
recentRouteCacheandrecentGeocodeCacheinbackend/routes/journey.js:23-24were plain Maps with TTL expiration but no maximum size limit. Under heavy load they could grow unbounded, causing memory exhaustion.Fix: Added
MAX_CACHE_SIZE = 500limit with LRU eviction — when a cache exceeds 500 entries, the oldest entry (first key in insertion order) is deleted before inserting the new one.
