From bbced51022134190534e5fc571389ef9d12dc387 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hyeonsang Cho Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 10:54:42 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] fix(gateway): close two input-sanitization bypasses (#5375) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * fix(gateway): reject forged framework-injection markers in run input `is_genuine_user_message` treats `hide_from_ui` and a human `name="summary"` as proof the framework authored a message, and `InputSanitizationMiddleware` skips those — escaping a real reminder's blocks would corrupt trusted context. Neither marker was server-owned, so an external caller could set either one and place a raw `` outside the user-input boundary markers, which the lead-agent system prompt declares trusted internal framework data. The `hide_from_ui` variant is also filtered out of the thread UI, so the forgery was invisible where it landed. Both markers are now stripped from untrusted input, on the run path and on the thread-state mutation route that writes straight into a checkpoint. Framework injection happens inside the graph and never crosses this boundary, so nothing the framework does is affected, and `trusted_internal` callers (IM channels, the MCP task-notification launcher) keep writing hidden messages. HumanInputCard replies are the one legitimate external `hide_from_ui`: the frontend sends it alongside a `human_input_response` payload, so a message carrying a valid one keeps the marker. That buys no bypass — the predicate already classifies those as genuine, so they stay sanitized. The name check reuses the predicate's own `_SUMMARY_MESSAGE_NAME` rather than a fourth copy of the literal, and matches by `isinstance` exactly as the predicate does: `HumanMessageChunk` is a `HumanMessage` whose `type` is not `"human"`, so a type-based check would leave that subclass's marker settable. `name` is only reserved on human messages — on a ToolMessage it is the tool's own name. Three tests in test_gateway_services.py and test_message_provenance.py asserted that a caller-supplied `hide_from_ui` survives. That assumption was the bypass; they now pin the opposite, with a genuinely caller-owned key kept alongside to prove the stripper is surgical. * fix(agents): sanitize every genuine user message, not only the newest The input guardrail scanned backwards for the first genuine user message and returned, so only the newest turn was ever sanitized. The transformation is request-scoped (`wrap_model_call`, never written to state), so thread state keeps the raw text: once a newer turn arrived, the previous turn's payload was replayed to the model verbatim, outside the boundary markers the lead-agent prompt declares trusted framework data. The guardrail therefore held for exactly one model call. Reaching it needed no forged metadata and no crafted request body — type the payload in one turn, then send anything at all in the next. A single request carrying two user messages did it in one shot, since every message but the last was skipped. `_process_request` now walks the whole list and `_sanitize_message` owns the per-message work; every existing branch (the `original_user_content` split for upload turns, the multimodal rfind fallback, the metadata repair) is unchanged. Framework-injected messages stay excluded by `is_genuine_user_message`. Unexpected errors now fail open per message rather than per request. Iterating history widened the old blast radius: one unprocessable row would have dropped sanitization for the whole request, handing an attacker the newest turn by crafting an older one. `GraphBubbleUp` still propagates. Side effect worth noting: each turn's rendering is now stable across model calls. Previously a turn was wrapped on its own call and unwrapped on the next, changing the prompt prefix behind the newest turn and defeating prompt caching. test_only_processes_last_user_message pinned the old scope; it now pins that every turn is processed, and keeps driving the `wrap_model_call` entry point. * docs: record the message-metadata trust boundary and sanitization scope `agents/middlewares/AGENTS.md` owns the depth for InputSanitizationMiddleware and documented only the `original_user_content` half of its trust boundary. Left alone it would teach an agent that `hide_from_ui` is caller-owned and that the guardrail covers one turn — and the usual failure mode is an agent "restoring" the behaviour it believes was lost. The entry now carries both markers, the HumanInputCard exception, the whole-history scope, and the per-message fail-open rule. The note lives only there. The root and `backend/AGENTS.md` layers are orientation that points at the module guides owning the depth, and `backend/AGENTS.md` is inherited by every backend chain — prose added there inflates more than twenty of them, and `scripts/check_agent_guidance.py` shows the middlewares chain has about a kilobyte of room against its hard limit. CHANGELOG.md and CHANGELOG_zh.md record it under Security, continuing the existing prompt-injection lineage. * fix(gateway): mark caller-hidden messages instead of stripping the marker Review follow-up. Stripping a caller-supplied `hide_from_ui` closed the bypass but broke three frontend senders that use the marker purely to keep a context message out of the transcript: the quoted conversation context (`buildHiddenConversationQuoteMessage`), the sidecar context prompt (`buildHiddenSidecarContextMessage`), and the agent save command. None carries a `human_input_response`, so the HumanInputCard carve-out did not cover them, and nothing else hides them — `_is_branch_visible_message` and the frontend's `isHiddenFromUIMessage` both key solely on `hide_from_ui`, and no backend reads `conversation_quote_context` or `sidecar_context`. All three would have rendered as user-visible chat bubbles. The marker plays two roles and only one of them is a vulnerability. The security requirement is that a caller-supplied marker cannot skip sanitization, not that it cannot hide a message. So the roles are separated instead of the marker being removed: the Gateway keeps it and stamps the server-owned `UNTRUSTED_INPUT_KEY`, and the guardrail now asks `requires_input_sanitization` — the mark, else the genuine-user test. Hidden stays hidden; untrusted content is sanitized either way. The reserved `summary` name is handled the same way and no longer rewritten. Marking rather than removing is also the safer shape in general: `hide_from_ui` is read for presentation, journal persistence, memory filtering and IM outbound as well, and this boundary should not silently change any of them. `is_genuine_user_message` is deliberately left alone. `ToolReceiptMiddleware` uses it for turn-boundary detection, where a caller's hidden context message must keep counting as not user-authored; widening it there would move the ledger's turn window. `requires_input_sanitization` sits beside it in `message_utils` so the two questions can be compared. The three tests that asserted a caller-supplied `hide_from_ui` is removed now assert it survives and carries the mark — which restores the original intent of the two provenance cases, whose comment already read "caller-owned keys must survive". * docs(gateway): rewrite normalize_input's docstring around the mark Review follow-up. The paragraph still described the pre-4a3344f6 strip model and contradicted both the implementation and the middlewares AGENTS.md paragraph updated in that same commit: it called `hide_from_ui` server-owned, said carrying it skips sanitization entirely, and repeated the premise this branch disproved — that HumanInputCard replies are the only legitimate external use. It now describes what the code does: the markers stay caller-owned and are preserved because three frontend senders rely on `hide_from_ui` for hiding alone, the message is stamped with `untrusted_input` instead, and `requires_input_sanitization` sanitizes it anyway. `untrusted_input` joins the server-owned inventory in the preceding paragraph, which is what makes the stamp unforgeable and unclearable. The three surrounding docstrings now also say that these functions mark as well as strip; `_strip_external_message_metadata` had advertised only the removal, leaving a reader no way to find the stamp from the name. * fix(gateway): mark state writes whose message omits additional_kwargs Review follow-up. The state-route half of the fix missed the most natural request shape. `_strip_external_metadata_from_message_like` returned early when `additional_kwargs` was absent or not a dict — there was nothing to strip — and that early return also skipped the mark. A `POST /threads/{id}/state` body of `{"values": {"messages": [{"role": "user", "name": "summary", "content": "…"}]}}` therefore reached the checkpoint unmarked. The messages reducer's `convert_to_messages` then supplies `additional_kwargs={}`, so at model-call time `requires_input_sanitization` fell back to `is_genuine_user_message`, which a `summary` name fails, and the forged tag reached the model raw and outside the boundary markers. A missing or non-dict `additional_kwargs` is now treated as empty for both the strip and the mark. The identity return is kept for the case where nothing changes, so an ordinary key-omitted message does not gain an empty dict just by passing through. The run path was never affected: `normalize_input` coerces to BaseMessage first, which always carries the dict. Every existing state-write test supplied an `additional_kwargs` dict, which is why this shape slipped through; the regression now covers it at the route and end to end through the reducer into the guardrail. While checking the neighbouring shapes, `_skips_input_guardrail` keyed off key presence where `is_genuine_user_message` keys off truthiness, so `hide_from_ui: False` — already covered without a mark — would have been stamped. It now mirrors the predicate exactly, as its docstring claimed. * docs(middlewares): compress the sanitization note to fit the guidance chain main's growth left the middlewares AGENTS.md chain 84 bytes under its hard limit, and the fuller wording did not fit. The load-bearing facts stay — the markers are marked rather than stripped, and the scan covers every turn — since those are the two an agent editing this middleware could otherwise get wrong. The full model lives in the normalize_input, _mark_untrusted_framework_markers and requires_input_sanitization docstrings. --------- Co-authored-by: Willem Jiang --- CHANGELOG.md | 15 + CHANGELOG_zh.md | 10 + backend/app/gateway/services.py | 128 +++++++- .../deerflow/agents/middlewares/AGENTS.md | 2 +- .../input_sanitization_middleware.py | 301 ++++++++++-------- .../agents/middlewares/message_utils.py | 23 ++ .../harness/deerflow/utils/messages.py | 9 + backend/tests/test_gateway_services.py | 280 +++++++++++++++- .../test_input_sanitization_middleware.py | 214 ++++++++++++- backend/tests/test_message_provenance.py | 57 ++++ 10 files changed, 884 insertions(+), 155 deletions(-) diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 4d8aab768..4f3d41d2f 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -1484,6 +1484,20 @@ This section accumulates work toward the **2.1.0** milestone and the conversation block in the memory-update prompt - and neutralize prompt-injection tags in `web_capture` tool results.
