From 00a18704e8dddb13e042e841e3513a54ffe62812 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: GitHub Actions Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 21:21:59 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix(uptime): allow RFC 1918 IPs for admin-configured monitors HTTP/HTTPS uptime monitors targeting LAN addresses (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x) permanently reported 'down' on fresh installs because SSRF protection rejects RFC 1918 ranges at two independent checkpoints: the URL validator (DNS-resolution layer) and the safe dialer (TCP-connect layer). Fixing only one layer leaves the monitor broken in practice. - Add IsRFC1918() predicate to the network package covering only the three RFC 1918 CIDRs; 169.254.x.x (link-local / cloud metadata) and loopback are intentionally excluded - Add WithAllowRFC1918() functional option to both SafeHTTPClient and ValidationConfig; option defaults to false so existing behaviour is unchanged for every call site except uptime monitors - In uptime_service.go, pass WithAllowRFC1918() to both ValidateExternalURL and NewSafeHTTPClient together; a coordinating comment documents that both layers must be relaxed as a unit - 169.254.169.254 and the full 169.254.0.0/16 link-local range remain unconditionally blocked; the cloud-metadata error path is preserved - 21 new tests across three packages, including an explicit regression guard that confirms RFC 1918 blocks are still applied without the option set (TestValidateExternalURL_RFC1918BlockedByDefault) Fixes issues 6 and 7 from the fresh-install bug report. --- backend/internal/network/safeclient.go | 94 +++ backend/internal/network/safeclient_test.go | 227 +++++++ backend/internal/security/url_validator.go | 29 + .../internal/security/url_validator_test.go | 132 ++++ backend/internal/services/uptime_service.go | 13 + .../internal/services/uptime_service_test.go | 94 +++ docs/plans/current_spec.md | 589 ++++++++++++++++++ docs/reports/qa_report_pr3.md | 214 +++++++ 8 files changed, 1392 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/reports/qa_report_pr3.md diff --git a/backend/internal/network/safeclient.go b/backend/internal/network/safeclient.go index c1432361..73b40aad 100644 --- a/backend/internal/network/safeclient.go +++ b/backend/internal/network/safeclient.go @@ -19,6 +19,22 @@ var ( initOnce sync.Once ) +// rfc1918Blocks holds pre-parsed CIDR blocks for RFC 1918 private address ranges only. +// Initialized once and used by IsRFC1918 to support the AllowRFC1918 bypass path. +var ( + rfc1918Blocks []*net.IPNet + rfc1918Once sync.Once +) + +// rfc1918CIDRs enumerates exactly the three RFC 1918 private address ranges. +// Intentionally excludes loopback, link-local, cloud metadata (169.254.x.x), +// and all other reserved ranges — those remain blocked regardless of AllowRFC1918. +var rfc1918CIDRs = []string{ + "10.0.0.0/8", + "172.16.0.0/12", + "192.168.0.0/16", +} + // privateCIDRs defines all private and reserved IP ranges to block for SSRF protection. // This list covers: // - RFC 1918 private networks (10.x, 172.16-31.x, 192.168.x) @@ -68,6 +84,21 @@ func initPrivateBlocks() { }) } +// initRFC1918Blocks parses the three RFC 1918 CIDR blocks once at startup. +func initRFC1918Blocks() { + rfc1918Once.Do(func() { + rfc1918Blocks = make([]*net.IPNet, 0, len(rfc1918CIDRs)) + for _, cidr := range rfc1918CIDRs { + _, block, err := net.ParseCIDR(cidr) + if err != nil { + // This should never happen with valid CIDR strings + continue + } + rfc1918Blocks = append(rfc1918Blocks, block) + } + }) +} + // IsPrivateIP checks if an IP address is private, loopback, link-local, or otherwise restricted. // This function implements comprehensive SSRF protection by blocking: // - Private IPv4 ranges (RFC 1918): 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16 @@ -110,6 +141,35 @@ func IsPrivateIP(ip net.IP) bool { return false } +// IsRFC1918 reports whether an IP address belongs to one of the three RFC 1918 +// private address ranges: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, or 192.168.0.0/16. +// +// Unlike IsPrivateIP, this function only covers RFC 1918 ranges.

For tests 6–9, real TCP connections to RFC 1918 addresses are unavailable in the CI environment. Those tests should use `httptest.NewServer` (which binds to loopback) combined with `AllowLocalhost: true` and `AllowRFC1918: true` to verify no *validation* error occurs. For tests that must confirm a block (e.g., `169.254.169.254`), the dialer is called directly with a short `DialTimeout` — the expected error is the SSRF block error, not a connection-refused error. + +#### `backend/internal/security/url_validator_test.go` + +| # | Test Function | Scenario | Expected Result | +|---|--------------|----------|-----------------| +| 11 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_Permits10x` | `http://10.0.0.1` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Passes URL validation phase (may fail DNS in test env — accept `dns resolution failed` as OK since that means validation passed) | +| 12 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_Permits172_16x` | `http://172.16.0.1` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Same as above | +| 13 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_Permits192_168x` | `http://192.168.1.100` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Same as above | +| 14 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_BlocksMetadata` | `http://169.254.169.254` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Returns error containing `"cloud metadata endpoints is blocked"` | +| 15 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_BlocksLinkLocal` | `http://169.254.10.1` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Returns error containing `"private ip addresses is blocked"` | +| 16 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_BlocksLoopback` | `http://127.0.0.1` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` (no `WithAllowLocalhost`) | Returns error; loopback not covered | +| 17 | `TestValidateExternalURL_RFC1918BlockedByDefault` | `http://192.168.1.1` with `WithAllowHTTP()` only (no RFC 1918 option) | Returns error containing `"private ip addresses is blocked"` — regression guard | +| 18 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_IPv4MappedIPv6Allowed` | `http://[::ffff:192.168.1.1]` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Permit (RFC 1918 bypass applies to IPv4-mapped form too) | +| 19 | `TestValidateExternalURL_WithAllowRFC1918_IPv4MappedMetadataBlocked` | `http://[::ffff:169.254.169.254]` with `WithAllowHTTP()` + `WithAllowRFC1918()` | Blocked; cloud metadata remains rejected in mapped form | + +**Implementation note for tests 11–13:** `ValidateExternalURL` calls `net.Resolver.LookupIP` on literal IP strings.

Both `ValidateExternalURL` and `safeDialer` will still call `IsPrivateIP` which blocks `169.254.0.0/16`. | Test 8 + Test 14. | +| 2 | **Full link-local range blocked.** Not just `169.254.169.254` but the entire `169.254.0.0/16` range is blocked. | Same as #1. `IsPrivateIP` covers `169.254.0.0/16`. `IsRFC1918` excludes this range. | Test 6 + Test 15. | +| 3 | **Loopback does not gain blanket bypass.** `127.0.0.0/8` and `::1` are not unblocked by `AllowRFC1918`. Only `AllowLocalhost` can bypass loopback, and it is not added unexpectedly. | `IsRFC1918` only covers the three RFC 1918 ranges. Loopback is handled independently by `AllowLocalhost`. | Test 7 + Test 16. | +| 4 | **IPv6 unique-local and link-local remain blocked.** `fc00::/7` and `fe80::/10` are not unblocked. RFC 1918 is IPv4-only. | `IsRFC1918` converts to IPv4 via `To4()`; it returns `false` for all IPv6 addresses. | Test 2 (`fe80::1`, `fc00::1` in `TestIsRFC1918_NonRFC1918Addresses`). | +| 5 | **Reserved ranges remain blocked.** `0.0.0.0/8`, `240.0.0.0/4`, `255.255.255.255/32` are not unblocked. | Same as above — not in `rfc1918CIDRs`. | Test 2 (`0.0.0.1`, `240.0.0.1` in `TestIsRFC1918_NonRFC1918Addresses`). | +| 6 | **RFC 1918 bypass is bounded precisely.** Addresses just outside the three RFC 1918 ranges (e.g., `172.15.255.255`, `172.32.0.0`) are not treated as RFC 1918. | `net.ParseCIDR` + `block.Contains` provide exact CIDR boundary enforcement. | Test 4 (`TestIsRFC1918_BoundaryAddresses`). | +| 7 | **IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses are handled.** `::ffff:192.168.1.1` is permitted with `AllowRFC1918`; `::ffff:169.254.169.254` is not. | `IsRFC1918` normalizes to IPv4 via `To4()` before CIDR check. The URL validator's IPv4-mapped branch also checks `IsRFC1918` before `IsPrivateIP`. Unit-level coverage provided by Test 10 (`TestIsRFC1918_IPv4MappedAddresses`). | Test 10 + Test 18 + Test 19. | +| 8 | **Option is not accessible to unauthenticated users.** The uptime monitor check routes are behind `authMiddleware` + `middleware.RequireManagementAccess()`. | `routes.go` nests uptime routes inside `management` group which is `protected.Group("/")` with `RequireManagementAccess()`. | Code review of `backend/internal/api/routes/routes.go` (confirmed: `management.POST("/uptime/monitors/:id/check", ...)` at line 461). | +| 9 | **Option is not applied to user-facing URL validation.** Webhook URLs, notification URLs, and other user-supplied inputs use `ValidateExternalURL` without `WithAllowRFC1918()`. | `WithAllowRFC1918()` is only added in `checkMonitor` in `uptime_service.go`. No other `ValidateExternalURL` call site is modified. | Grep all `ValidateExternalURL` call sites; verify only `uptime_service.go` carries `WithAllowRFC1918()`. | +| 10 | **Both layers are consistently relaxed.** If `WithAllowRFC1918()` is at Layer 1 (URL validator), it is also at Layer 2 (safe dialer). Partial bypass is not possible. | Comment in `uptime_service.go` creates a code-review anchor. | Cross-reference Layer 1 and Layer 2 call sites in `checkMonitor`. | +| 11 | **DNS rebinding is still defeated.** The safe dialer re-resolves the hostname at connect time and re-applies the same RFC 1918 policy. A hostname that resolves to a public IP during validation cannot be swapped for a private non-RFC-1918 IP at connect time. | `safeDialer` validates ALL resolved IPs against the same logic as the URL validator. `IsPrivateIP` is still called for non-RFC-1918 addresses. | Existing `TestSafeDialer_BlocksPrivateIPs` remains unchanged and continues to pass. | +| 12 | **`IsRFC1918(nil)` returns `false`, not `true`.** `IsPrivateIP(nil)` returns `true` (block-by-default safety). `IsRFC1918(nil)` should return `false` because `nil` is not an RFC 1918 address — it would fall through to `IsPrivateIP` which handles the nil case. | Early nil check in `IsRFC1918`: `if ip == nil { return false }`. | Test 3 (`TestIsRFC1918_NilIP`). | +| 13 | **`CheckMonitor` exported wrapper propagates the fix automatically.** The exported `CheckMonitor` method delegates directly to the unexported `checkMonitor`. All RFC 1918 option changes applied inside `checkMonitor` take effect for both entry points without separate configuration. | `uptime_service.go`: `CheckMonitor` calls `checkMonitor` without re-creating the HTTP client or invoking `ValidateExternalURL` independently. | Code review: verify `CheckMonitor` does not construct its own HTTP client or URL validation path outside of `checkMonitor`. | +| 14 | **Coordination invariant is comment-enforced; integration test can assert the contract.** The requirement that Layer 1 (`WithAllowRFC1918()` in `ValidateExternalURL`) and Layer 2 (`WithAllowRFC1918()` in `NewSafeHTTPClient`) are always relaxed together is documented via the inline comment at the `NewSafeHTTPClient` call site in `checkMonitor`. Partial bypass — relaxing only one layer — is not possible silently because the code-review anchor makes the intent explicit. A `TestCheckMonitor` integration test (Test 20) can additionally assert the "up" outcome to confirm both layers cooperate. | Comment in `uptime_service.go`: "Must mirror the `WithAllowRFC1918()` passed to `ValidateExternalURL` above." | Cross-reference both `WithAllowRFC1918()` call sites in `checkMonitor`; any future call site adding only one of the two options is a mis-use detectable at code review. | + +--- + +### E.
