Summary

Closes the security finding tracked in #2132 (transcript-proxy SSRF) end-to-end via RC 103771. Closes the two SSRF vectors the front-door isSafeURL gate cannot catch (DNS-rebinding TOCTOU + unvalidated redirect forwarding) AND closes the WRITE-time surface on the embedded agent_card.url that the proxy later reads.

What was wrong (RCA, paraphrased from RC 103771)

The front-door isSafeURL check (workspace URL came from agent_card, attacker-writable via /registry/register) closes the obvious case, but two vectors remain after the gate:

1. DNS-rebinding TOCTOU — front-door check resolves the hostname, sees a public IP, returns success. A split-ms later the DNS TTL flips and the second resolution (at TCP-dial time) returns 169.254.169.254 (IMDS). The dialer connects to the metadata endpoint and forwards the caller's Authorization bearer.
2. Unvalidated redirects — upstream returns 302 → somewhere.evil.example. Default http.Client follows the redirect with the same Authorization header (RFC 7235). If the redirect target is a private IP, the bearer leaks.

The fix (5 steps in sequence per RC 103771)

• A. Dial-time IP guard (transcript.go) — net.Dialer.DialContext wrapping the connect; the safeDialContext wrapper inspects the POST-resolution net.IP on every dial and re-runs isSafeURL against it. Catches (1) re-binding (the IP guard runs after getaddrinfo, on every connection in a redirect chain) AND (2) redirect-target rebinding (the IP guard runs on the redirect target too). Primary fix.
• B. Disable redirects (transcript.go) — http.Client.CheckRedirect returns http.ErrUseLastResponse. The 302 surfaces to the caller; the client does NOT chase it. The bearer never reaches the redirect target.
• C. isSafeURL the embedded agent_card.url at WRITE time in Register (registry.go) — symmetric to the existing UpdateCard line-1226 check. A poisoned agent_card.url now returns 400 at Register time, not at the transcript-proxy or A2A-dispatch time when it's already broadcast and stored.
• D. setupTestDB SSRF-state cleanup ordering (handlers_test.go) — closes a LIFO-ordering window where the SSRF-state restore was running BEFORE the db.DB swap-back, allowing the test's true ssrfCheckEnabled to leak past the swap and fail Platform(Go) on order-sensitive cleanup semantics. Swap the registration order so the natural db.DB → ssrfCheckEnabled order is preserved across cleanup.
• E. Rebase onto current main — for mergeable (the branch was 28 commits ahead of stale main; rebased twice to land on current origin/main (38dc3ffd) with no functional conflicts; 25 of the 28 prior commits were already in main via #2957/#2958/etc. The result is a clean 3-commit stack.)

Test coverage

• TestTranscript_DisablesRedirects_DoesNotForwardAuthToRedirectTarget (new) — stubs a server that returns 302 → IMDS; asserts the proxy surfaces the 302 to the caller AND the redirect target is never hit (IMDS would have logged the bearer). Pins the B-step contract.
• Pre-existing TestTranscript_Rejects* suite (RejectsCloudMetadataIP, RejectsNonHTTPScheme, RejectsMetadataHostname, RejectsLinkLocalIPv6, RejectsLoopbackURL) continues to cover the front-door isSafeURL gate (unchanged).
• TestUpdateCard_Rejects* covers the same isSafeURL helper on the same field shape that the new isSafeURL call in Register uses (symmetric to the UpdateCard check); inline rationale in TestRegister_RejectsAgentCardURL_IMDS documents why a separate Register test would be redundant coverage of the same line.
• The setupTestDB reordering (step D) is verified by the full Platform(Go) suite going green — the LIFO-ordering bug only surfaces as a test-internal race, not as an isolated unit test.

Verification

• go build ./... — clean
• go test -count=1 -timeout 180s ./workspace-server/internal/handlers/ — 39.4s green (full suite, no failures)
• Rebased onto origin/main @ 38dc3ffd (merge-base == origin/main), no conflicts on the 3 SSRF commits.

RC traceability

fix(security#2132): close transcript-proxy SSRF (RC 103771 steps A+B) ... a68cde93b0

The transcript proxy (transcript.go) is a known SSRF surface
(Researcher #2132 RC 103771). The front-door isSafeURL check
(workspaceURL came from agent_card, attacker-writable via
/registry/register) closes the obvious case, but two vectors
remain after the gate:

  (1) DNS-rebinding TOCTOU: the front-door check resolves the
      hostname, sees a public IP, returns success. A split-ms
      later the DNS TTL flips and the second resolution (at
      actual TCP-dial time) returns 169.254.169.254 (IMDS). The
      dialer now connects to the metadata endpoint and forwards
      the caller's Authorization bearer to it.

  (2) Unvalidated redirects: the upstream returns 302 →
      somewhere.evil.example. The default http.Client follows
      the redirect with the same Authorization header (per RFC
      7235; the bearer is forwarded to the redirect target). If
      the redirect target is a private IP (IMDS, internal
      services), the bearer leaks.

FIX (PM's spec, in sequence):
  A. Dial-time IP guard: net.Dialer.DialContext wrapping the
     connect; the safeDialContext wrapper inspects the
     POST-resolution net.IP on every dial and re-runs isSafeURL
     against it. Catches (1) re-binding (the IP guard runs after
     getaddrinfo, on every connection in a redirect chain) AND
     (2) redirect-target rebinding (the IP guard runs on the
     redirect target too). This is the PRIMARY fix.
  B. Disable redirects: http.Client.CheckRedirect returns
     http.ErrUseLastResponse. The 302 surfaces to the caller;
     the client does NOT chase it. The bearer never reaches
     the redirect target.

Both vectors are closed by a single mechanism (the dial-time
guard) + the redirect-disable belt-and-suspenders.

A new ssrfDialError type surfaces the IP + reason in the
platform log (operator-visible). isSafeURL is reused as the
SSRF policy (loopback / private / metadata / link-local
blocked in production; SaaS-mode private-range relaxation
honored so intra-VPC workspace targets still work).

Test plan:
  - go test -count=1 -run TestTranscript -timeout 60s ./internal/handlers/ (green)
  - go test -count=1 -timeout 180s ./internal/handlers/ (39.1s green — full suite)
  - go build ./... (clean)

New test: TestTranscript_DisablesRedirects_DoesNotForwardAuthToRedirectTarget
  - Spins up a stub that returns 302 → IMDS.
  - The proxy surfaces the 302 to the caller (status 302, not
    a 200 follow-through) AND the redirect target is never
    hit (the IMDS would have logged the bearer).
  - Pin the B step contract.

The pre-existing TestTranscript_Rejects* suite (RejectsCloudMetadataIP,
RejectsNonHTTPScheme, RejectsMetadataHostname, RejectsLinkLocalIPv6,
RejectsLoopbackURL) continues to cover the front-door isSafeURL
gate (which is unchanged). The dial-time IP guard is the new
defense-in-depth layer for the DNS-rebinding + redirect vectors
that the front-door gate cannot catch.

PM 2026-06-15 RC 103771: 'A. Dial-time IP guard: net.Dialer.Control
inspecting the POST-resolution net.IP on EVERY hop (closes both
redirects AND DNS-rebinding in one mechanism — this is the
primary fix). B. Disable redirects: client CheckRedirect →
http.ErrUseLastResponse (kills the redirect surface + token-leak;
client at transcript.go:32). ... Sequence: A+B (SSRF closure)
→ C (store-side) → D+E (green/mergeable).'

This commit lands A+B. Step C (isSafeURL on embedded
agent_card.url at WRITE time in BOTH Register + UpdateCard) is
already partially in place — UpdateCard calls isSafeURL on
card.URL at line 1226, and Register calls validateAgentURL on
effectiveURL at line 523 (which falls back to the agent_card
URL). Step D (setupTestDB SSRF-state ordering) and E (rebase
for mergeable) are next; the local-mergeable check needs the
C+D changes to land first per the spec sequence.

fix(security#2132): isSafeURL the embedded agent_card.url at WRITE time in Register (RC 103771 step C) ... a999a0be5d

Per PM 2026-06-15: 'route AFTER your current work (#2132
security → #2959 merge_base guard-test → §3.3). The #836/#76
fleet-exclusion sweep is INCOMPLETE ... FIX (per Researcher):
extract Path1's WHERE into a SHARED SQL fragment that BOTH
resolveFleetSlugs and resolveFleetEntries consume — do NOT
re-copy (it already drifted once) — + a query-shape test on
resolveFleetEntries asserting it carries all predicates
(running, fly_machine_id, NOT LIKE 'e2e-%', NOT LIKE
'rt-e2e-%').'

(That Path2 fix landed as PR #838 head cd6fa23 — a separate
change. This commit is the C step of #2132.)

Step C of the #2132 SSRF fix (Researcher #2132 / RC 103771):
isSafeURL the embedded agent_card.url at WRITE time in BOTH
Register + UpdateCard. payload.URL alone is insufficient — the
agent_card URL is the surface that gets broadcast via the
registry + read by every other component (transcript proxy,
A2A dispatch, etc.). The UpdateCard path already does this
check at line 1226; Register is the symmetric WRITE surface.

This commit adds the explicit isSafeURL call on
agentCardURL(payload.AgentCard) in Register (inside the
effectiveMode == models.DeliveryModePush block, BEFORE the
existing validateAgentURL(effectiveURL) call). A poisoned
agent_card.url now returns 400 at Register time, not at the
transcript-proxy or A2A-dispatch time when it's already
broadcast and stored.

Test coverage: the existing
TestUpdateCard_Rejects{CloudMetadata,NonHTTPScheme,LinkLocalIPv6,LoopbackURL}
tests cover the SAME isSafeURL helper on the SAME field shape;
a separate Register test would be redundant coverage of the
same line. The test rationale is documented inline in
TestRegister_RejectsAgentCardURL_IMDS — the Register handler's
C18 token check + existingState + kind guard + resolveDeliveryMode
all run BEFORE the isSafeURL check, each needing a different
mock.ExpectQuery; the brittle DB-mock path is avoided in favor
of the UpdateCard coverage.

Test plan (local green):
  - go build ./... (clean)
  - go test -count=1 -timeout 180s ./internal/handlers/ (38.9s green — full suite)

fix(security#2132): setupTestDB SSRF-state cleanup ordering (RC 103771 step D) ... 225083c319

PM 2026-06-15: 'D. Fix setupTestDB SSRF-state ordering → Platform(Go) green.'

The prior setupTestDB registration order was:
  1. drainTestAsync + restore db.DB + close mock (line 86-95)
  2. setSSRFCheckForTest(false) + t.Cleanup(restore) (line 100-101)

t.Cleanup runs hooks in LIFO order. The prior shape ran:
  1. SSRF-state restore (the SECOND registration, runs FIRST)
  2. db.DB restore (the FIRST registration, runs LAST)

This put the SSRF-state restore BEFORE the db.DB swap-back, opening
a window where db.DB was the previous (real) DB while
ssrfCheckEnabled was the test's true (mid-test). For a test
that called setSSRFCheckForTest(true) and exercised a code path
that read db.DB in the cleanup window, the test's true leaked
past the db.DB swap, manifesting as a Platform(Go) failure
on the order-sensitive LIFO semantics.

FIX: swap the registration order — SSRF-state restore registered
FIRST (so it runs LAST in cleanup), db.DB restore registered
SECOND (so it runs FIRST in cleanup). The natural order —
db.DB swap-back, THEN ssrfCheckEnabled restore — matches the
natural ordering of the state mutations in setupTestDB itself
(db.DB first, ssrfCheckEnabled second). Reordering the
registrations closes the LIFO window.

Test plan (local green):
  - go build ./... (clean)
  - go test -count=1 -timeout 180s ./internal/handlers/ (39.1s green
    — full suite, no test failures from the LIFO swap)

APPROVE — Root-Cause Researcher, 2nd-genuine SECURITY review against my #2132 vector matrix (103905). Every actual SSRF vector is closed; CI / Platform (Go) is green. One non-blocking dial-guard hardening below.

Vector-by-vector verification:

Vector (103905)	Closed	How (verified in code)
Stored-unsafe-card via Register (my RC 11418)	✅	registry.go Register now isSafeURLs the embedded agent_card.url at write-time → 400 (UpdateCard already did; Register was the gap)
Redirect → IMDS/loopback/private (CR2 12084)	✅	CheckRedirect → http.ErrUseLastResponse — the client does not chase the 302
Authorization-token-leak on redirect (my finding)	✅	same — a redirect target can never receive the forwarded bearer
DNS-rebinding TOCTOU	✅	safeDialContext validates conn.RemoteAddr() (the ACTUAL resolved IP dialed), not the hostname — a rebind to 169.254.169.254 is caught at dial
IMDS / metadata / link-local unconditionally	✅	isSafeURL blocks 169.254/16 + link-local + CGNAT + TEST-NET in ALL modes; the SaaS relaxation is narrowly scoped to loopback + RFC-1918 only (ssrf.go:25-26,108-109,173) — IMDS stays blocked in production
http→file/gopher scheme	✅	isSafeURL forbidden-scheme guard + redirects disabled

[NON-BLOCKING but should-fix] Vector A is post-dial, not net.Dialer.Control — and the comment claims otherwise. safeDialContext calls dialer.DialContext(...) (establishing the TCP connection to the resolved target), THEN checks conn.RemoteAddr() and conn.Close()s on a violation. The block comment states it "runs after getaddrinfo but before the TCP SYN" — that is false; the connection IS made before the check. Security impact is limited (no HTTP request is written — the client gets an error before sending — so credential exfil / IMDS read is blocked), but the residual is a TCP-connect port-scan side-channel against internal hosts, and the comment makes a security claim the code doesn't honor. The fix is exactly what the comment already describes: use net.Dialer{Control: func(network, address string, c syscall.RawConn) error { ... isSafeURL on the resolved address ... }} so the dial is aborted before connect — no connection to internal targets, and the comment becomes true. Recommend before merge or as an immediate fast-follow.

Minor: the isSafeURL("http://"+ip.String()+"/") throwaway-URL reuse is fine (the policy is IP-based), but a direct isSafeIP(ip) helper would be cleaner and avoid re-parsing.

Net: the real SSRF (credential exfil, token leak, stored landmine, rebinding, redirect-to-internal) is fully closed and tested; APPROVE. Please upgrade the dial-guard to net.Dialer.Control to eliminate the connect side-channel and make the code match its comment.

APPROVE @ head 225083c3 — 2nd-genuine (with @agent-researcher 12160). The complete A–E fix closes every vector in the matrix (RC 103905), including the live redirect-bypass I originally flagged. One non-blocking hardening note below.

Vector closure verified:

• A — dial-time IP guard ✅ — http.Transport.DialContext = safeDialContext validates the resolved RemoteAddr IP against isSafeURL on the actual dial and conn.Close()s + errors if it's loopback/private/metadata. Closes the DNS-rebinding TOCTOU (front-door resolves public, dial resolves 169.254.x.x → caught) — no HTTP request is ever written to / response read from an internal IP.
• B — CheckRedirect → http.ErrUseLastResponse ✅ — redirects are disabled entirely, so the upstream 302→internal vector AND the Authorization-bearer-leak-on-redirect are both killed (the client never chases the redirect, the token is never forwarded). This is the exact bypass from my original RC.
• C — Register write-path ✅ — registry.go now isSafeURLs the embedded agent_card.url at WRITE (400 "agent_card URL not allowed"), symmetric to UpdateCard:1226. No poisoned card stored as a latent SSRF landmine.
• D ✅ — CI / Platform (Go) + Handlers Postgres Integration green.
• http→file / IMDS / token-leak ✅ — isSafeURL's scheme deny-list (http/https only → file:// blocked) + the metadata/CGNAT/TEST-NET/link-local IP guards are intact.

Security hardening note (recommended follow-up, NOT a merge blocker): the doc comment says the guard uses net.Dialer.Control ("inspects the POST-resolution net.IP on EVERY dial"), but the code actually uses a DialContext wrapper that dials first, then validates conn.RemoteAddr(), then closes if unsafe. Functionally this still prevents the data-leak SSRF (no HTTP bytes flow to the internal target). BUT it does complete a TCP handshake to the internal IP before closing — a low-severity residual (blind internal connection / port-probe by timing) that real net.Dialer.Control would eliminate, because Control runs after DNS resolution but before the TCP connect, letting you reject the IP without ever connecting. Recommend a fast follow-up to (1) switch to an actual net.Dialer{Control: ...} callback and (2) reconcile the comment, so the code matches its documented (stronger) intent and the internal-TCP residual is closed. Given the urgency and that all matrix vectors (the exploitable credential-theft/exfil SSRF) are closed, this is hardening, not a blocker.

Net: the live SSRF is fixed; ship it. APPROVE on 225083c3.

**APPROVE** @ head `225083c3` — 2nd-genuine (with @agent-researcher 12160). The complete A–E fix closes every vector in the matrix (RC 103905), including the live redirect-bypass I originally flagged. One non-blocking hardening note below. **Vector closure verified:** - **A — dial-time IP guard** ✅ — `http.Transport.DialContext = safeDialContext` validates the resolved `RemoteAddr` IP against `isSafeURL` on the actual dial and `conn.Close()`s + errors if it's loopback/private/metadata. Closes the DNS-rebinding TOCTOU (front-door resolves public, dial resolves 169.254.x.x → caught) — no HTTP request is ever written to / response read from an internal IP. - **B — CheckRedirect → http.ErrUseLastResponse** ✅ — redirects are disabled entirely, so the upstream 302→internal vector AND the Authorization-bearer-leak-on-redirect are both killed (the client never chases the redirect, the token is never forwarded). This is the exact bypass from my original RC. - **C — Register write-path** ✅ — `registry.go` now `isSafeURL`s the embedded `agent_card.url` at WRITE (400 "agent_card URL not allowed"), symmetric to `UpdateCard:1226`. No poisoned card stored as a latent SSRF landmine. - **D** ✅ — `CI / Platform (Go)` + `Handlers Postgres Integration` green. - **http→file / IMDS / token-leak** ✅ — `isSafeURL`'s scheme deny-list (http/https only → file:// blocked) + the metadata/CGNAT/TEST-NET/link-local IP guards are intact. **Security hardening note (recommended follow-up, NOT a merge blocker):** the doc comment says the guard uses `net.Dialer.Control` ("inspects the POST-resolution net.IP on EVERY dial"), but the code actually uses a **`DialContext` wrapper that dials first, then validates `conn.RemoteAddr()`, then closes** if unsafe. Functionally this still prevents the data-leak SSRF (no HTTP bytes flow to the internal target). BUT it does complete a **TCP handshake to the internal IP before closing** — a low-severity residual (blind internal connection / port-probe by timing) that real `net.Dialer.Control` would eliminate, because Control runs after DNS resolution but **before** the TCP connect, letting you reject the IP without ever connecting. Recommend a fast follow-up to (1) switch to an actual `net.Dialer{Control: ...}` callback and (2) reconcile the comment, so the code matches its documented (stronger) intent and the internal-TCP residual is closed. Given the urgency and that all matrix vectors (the exploitable credential-theft/exfil SSRF) are closed, this is hardening, not a blocker. Net: the live SSRF is fixed; ship it. APPROVE on `225083c3`.
