From 0a877438fd04cb3db8ab4241d915d02d6e13e11f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: seonghobae <8172694+seonghobae@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 21:18:12 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?=F0=9F=9B=A1=EF=B8=8F=20Sentinel:=20[CRITICAL]?= =?UTF-8?q?=20Fix=20Server-Side=20Request=20Forgery=20(SSRF)?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This commit implements a hostname validation in the `wait_for_url` function to prevent Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities. Validating URL schemes is insufficient to prevent SSRF if the URL can target arbitrary external or internal hosts. A malicious URL could target internal network services. By using `urllib.parse.urlparse`, we validate that the parsed URL hostname is restricted to safe loopback addresses (`localhost` or `127.0.0.1`) before opening the URL when making network requests in CI scripts. The `.jules/sentinel.md` journal is also updated with this learning. Tests and test coverage have been maintained at 100%. --- .jules/sentinel.md | 4 ++++ scripts/ci/sandboxed_web_e2e.py | 6 ++++++ tests/test_sandboxed_web_e2e.py | 2 ++ 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/.jules/sentinel.md b/.jules/sentinel.md index be2dfa4bb..5ac120d15 100644 --- a/.jules/sentinel.md +++ b/.jules/sentinel.md @@ -35,3 +35,7 @@ **Vulnerability:** Command Injection **Learning:** Fixing a `shell=True` vulnerability by replacing it with `shell=False` and wrapping the command string in `["/bin/bash", "-lc", command]` is incomplete and still leaves the code vulnerable to shell injection. It acts as security theater, as it misleads linters while executing untrusted input via the bash wrapper. The vulnerability was still present in `sandboxed_web_e2e.py`. **Prevention:** Remove `/bin/bash` wrapper from `subprocess` calls in CI scripts. Always use `shlex.split(command)` to safely parse strings into a list of arguments and pass the list directly to `subprocess.Popen` or `subprocess.run`. +## 2026-08-25 - Prevent SSRF via Hostname Validation in Network Requests +**Vulnerability:** Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) +**Learning:** Validating URL schemes is insufficient to prevent SSRF if the URL can target arbitrary external or internal hosts.
