  • Explore repository structure and understand the codebase
  • Identify security vulnerabilities in the codebase
  • Fix critical security issues:
    • CORS configuration (allow_origins=["*"]) - Now configurable via CORS_ORIGINS env var
    • Hardcoded default JWT secret key - Now uses secure random key with warning
    • Command injection vulnerability in clone_repository - Added URL and branch sanitization
    • Path traversal check improvements - Added comprehensive path validation including URL-encoded variants
    • Add timeout to exec_command - Prevents indefinite execution
  • Add security unit tests (31 tests)
  • Run code review tool - Fixed all 5 issues identified
  • Run CodeQL security scanner - No alerts found
  • Document security findings and fixes in docs/SECURITY_REVIEW.md
  • Resolve merge conflicts with main branch

Security Review Summary

Vulnerabilities Fixed:

  1. CORS Wildcard (HIGH) - Changed from * to configurable origins via CORS_ORIGINS env var
  2. JWT Secret (HIGH) - Random secure default with proper environment variable check
  3. Command Injection (CRITICAL) - Added input validation for Git URLs, branch names, file paths
  4. Path Traversal (HIGH) - Comprehensive checks including URL-encoded patterns
  5. Execution Timeout (MEDIUM) - Added timeout to prevent DoS via long-running commands

Tests Added:

  • 31 unit tests for security sanitization functions
  • All tests pass
  • CodeQL: No alerts found

…d path traversal patterns

- Fix CORS_ORIGINS parsing to handle empty strings correctly
- Fix JWT_SECRET_KEY warning to check environment variable directly
- Add comprehensive URL-encoded path traversal patterns (%2f, %252f)
- Simplify Git URL validation regex

- Merged container_service.py: kept enhanced _sanitize_path function
- Merged .env.example: kept CORS_ORIGINS setting, used main's higher resource limits (4.0 CPU, 8g memory)
- Preserved all security enhancements: JWT secret handling, CORS configuration, input sanitization
- All 31 security tests passing
