Latest version	0.6.27-ls397
Image	`lscr.io/linuxserver/calibre-web:0.6.27-ls397`
Base OS	Ubuntu Noble (24.04 LTS, since 2024-12-05)
Port	8083 (host) → 8083 (container)
Default login	`admin` / `admin123`

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

Point the container at the Calibre library directory (set the /books volume).
Log in with admin / admin123 and change the password immediately.
In Basic Configuration → Calibre Database → set Location of Calibre database to /books.
In Basic Configuration → External Binaries → set the directory to /usr/bin/ for Calibre-Web >= 0.6.22.
kepubify is pre-configured since version 0.6.27. No need to set the kepubify path manually.
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

    healthcheck:

      interval: 30s
      timeout: 10s
      retries: 3

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.
