The R09 scholarly hardening routes every hop through check_outbound_url with
block_private=True. On a DNS64/NAT64 network, an IPv4-only host can resolve
through the RFC 6052 Well-Known Prefix. For example, export.arxiv.org resolved
to 64:ff9b::924b:5b2a in the reproduced environment.
CPython classifies that outer IPv6 prefix as reserved, so the URL guard rejected
the request before examining the effective IPv4 destination.
Decode addresses in exactly 64:ff9b::/96 to their embedded IPv4 destination and
evaluate that destination under the strict outbound policy.
The translated target is always checked with private-address blocking enabled.
This prevents the NAT64 prefix from becoming a path to loopback, private,
shared/CGNAT, link-local, multicast, unspecified, or other non-global IPv4
space.
Network-specific translation prefixes are not decoded. In particular,
64:ff9b:1::/48 remains subject to the existing IPv6 policy.
Coverage includes:
- public IPv4 destinations embedded through the RFC 6052 prefix
- loopback, link-local, private, CGNAT, multicast, unspecified, benchmark, and
TEST-NET rejection
- network-specific NAT64 prefixes remaining undecoded
- deterministic scholarly provider tests without live DNS dependence
- redirect query parameter isolation
- relative redirect resolution
- HTTP error fallback behavior
- editor draft GET and DELETE behavior remaining unaffected
R09, R11, and R01 were independently audited and otherwise left unchanged.
Last step of splitting static/style.css by panel. This moves the cookbook,
deep research, memory and settings rules that can move into
static/css/cookbook-research-memory-settings.css.
After the three steps style.css still holds the shell and every rule whose
move would change the cascade, which on this branch is most of the file.
Eager ordered links, verbatim moves, no rendering change.
Second step of splitting static/style.css by panel. This moves the email,
calendar, notes and tasks rules that can move into
static/css/email-calendar-notes-tasks.css.
Same shape as the first step: eager ordered links, verbatim moves, no
rendering change. The header comment in each split file lists the load order
and the earlier file's header is updated so all of them agree.
static/style.css is 51,425 lines and holds every panel's styles, so two
people working on unrelated panels still edit the same file. This is the
first of three steps that give each panel group its own stylesheet. It moves
the document library, image gallery and image editor rules that can move
into static/css/documents-gallery-editor.css.
The new file is loaded eagerly from index.html immediately after style.css,
so the cascade is the concatenation of the two in that order, which is the
order those rules already had. Nothing is deferred and nothing renders
differently.
Rules moved verbatim. A rule stays in style.css when its selector group
covers more than one panel, when the class is shared design language used
from modules outside the panel, or when moving it would flip which of two
equally specific rules wins on an element the markup puts both classes on.
That last rule is what keeps this change small: most panel-prefixed rules on
this branch compete with a shared component rule somewhere later in the file.
Nineteen tests read static/style.css directly and go red the moment a rule
they assert on moves, which says nothing about the page. They now go through
tests/helpers/stylesheets.app_css(), which concatenates the stylesheets in
the order index.html loads them. The helper also exposes the <link> markup
for tests that build a synthetic page through Playwright.
- Enforce outbound URL policy on all hops via bounded manual redirects in scholarly lookups
- Guard declared Content-Length in EditorDraftRoute before request body parsing
- Keep scholarly lookup timeouts and budgets as internal constants rather than surface env vars
- Narrow TUI threat-model description around demonstrable host shell bridge behavior
- Add behavioral regression tests for redirect security and pre-parsing body size guards
Covers both behaviours end to end: a refused outbound URL and an exhausted
budget must skip the request entirely rather than fall through to httpx, the
remaining budget caps each hop's timeout, and an over-ceiling Content-Length
returns 413 without the body being parsed.
Verified against the pre-fix tree: the User-Agent was hardcoded, the endpoints
were literals, check_outbound_url was absent, both hops carried independent
12.0s timeouts, and an oversized declared body returned 422 after parsing
rather than 413 before it.
The post-external-context gate is off unless ODYSSEUS_TOOL_APPROVAL_GATE is
set, but THREAT_MODEL.md described only the untrusted-context wrapper. A reader
auditing the prompt-injection posture would reasonably assume the gate was
active.
State the default, what it blocks when enabled, the two deliberate exemptions,
and note in Known Gaps that the compensating control for the missing shell
sandbox is off by default.
The 256 MiB ceiling was only enforced inside _dump_payload, which runs after
FastAPI has parsed the request and after json.dumps has re-serialised it. By
that point the payload has been materialised several times over, so the limit
rejected an allocation it had already paid for.
Check Content-Length first, on both write routes. A request that omits or lies
about the header still reaches the exact byte count, which remains
authoritative.
The arXiv and OpenAlex title resolvers called two hardcoded endpoints with a
hand-written "Odysseus/0.20" User-Agent, no outbound-URL policy, and a full
12s timeout each. APP_VERSION was already 1.0.3, so the agent string was wrong
the moment it was written, and a scholarly query could hold a user-facing
search open for the sum of all three hops.
Move the endpoints to named constants, build the User-Agent from APP_VERSION,
run both calls through check_outbound_url (they follow redirects, so the final
host is not the one in the constant), and give the whole SearXNG -> OpenAlex ->
arXiv chain one shared wall-clock budget.
The budget is a ContextVar rather than a parameter so the existing test doubles
for _openalex_title_results and _arxiv_title_results keep working unchanged.
