## CVEs Fixed in Latest Version
|
|
|
|
| CVE | Issue |
|
|
|-----|-------|
|
|
| CVE-2025-7404 | External binary names (e.g. `unrar`) restricted to prevent RCE |
|
|
| — | XSS in book comments imported via Calibre, now sanitized |
|
|
|
|
Additional packages added: `libxfixes3` and `libasound2t64` to support epub-to-pdf conversion. The `--no-sandbox` flag is applied to qtwebengine to prevent crashes in Docker.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
| Variable | Value | Description |
|
|
|----------|-------|-------------|
|
|
| `PUID` | `1000` | User ID |
|
|
| `PGID` | `1000` | Group ID |
|
|
| `TZ` | `Etc/UTC` | Timezone |
|
|
| `DOCKER_MODS` | `linuxserver/mods:universal-calibre` | Optional: enables ebook conversion tools |
|
|
| `OAUTHLIB_RELAX_TOKEN_SCOPE` | `1` | Required for Google OAuth |
|
|
|
|
### Setup Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Point the container at the Calibre library directory (set the `/books` volume).
|
|
2. Log in with `admin` / `admin123` and change the password immediately.
|
|
3. In Basic Configuration → Calibre Database → set Location of Calibre database to `/books`.
|
|
4. In Basic Configuration → External Binaries → set the directory to `/usr/bin/` for Calibre-Web >= 0.6.22.
|
|
5. **kepubify is pre-configured** since version 0.6.27. No need to set the kepubify path manually.
|
|
6. Set up Google OAuth if desired (requires `OAUTHLIB_RELAX_TOKEN_SCOPE=1`).
|
|
|
|
## Volumes
|
|
|
|
| Container path | Host path (convention) |
|
|
|----------------|------------------------|
|
|
| `/config` | `/opt/calibre-web/config` |
|
|
| `/books` | The existing Calibre library directory (user-entered during setup) |
|
|
|
|
## Docker Compose

|
|
## Gotchas
|
|
|
|
- **Wrong database path:** Login appears to succeed but the library is empty. Verify the Calibre database path in the admin page.
|
|
- **Ebook conversion:** Requires the `universal-calibre` Docker mod AND the external binary path set to `/usr/bin/` (directory, not full path to `ebook-convert`).
|
|
- **Google OAuth:** Set `OAUTHLIB_RELAX_TOKEN_SCOPE=1` or OAuth login fails.
|
|
- **calibre 9.9.0 content server security fix:** A bug since v6.16.0 allows any user with server access to read non-Calibre files on the host. Upgrade to 9.9.0+ if serving content to untrusted users.
