Wrapping a catastrophic command in a bare subshell or brace group walked
straight past the unconditional hardline floor -- even under --yolo,
/yolo, approvals.mode=off, and cron approve mode. The command-substitution
forms were already caught; the bare paren / brace-group forms were the gap.
Rather than add the paren and brace openers to the flat _CMDPOS pattern
class (which cannot tell a real subshell opener from one sitting inside a
quoted argument, and would false-positive on ordinary prose such as a PR
title that merely mentions the trigger word), teach the existing
QUOTE-AWARE command-start tokenizer (_iter_shell_command_starts) to treat
the paren and brace openers as command starts, then emit a detection
variant that marks each real command start with a newline (already a
_CMDPOS separator). Openers inside quotes never register as starts, so
quoted arguments are left untouched while real subshell/brace bypasses now
anchor. One place covers every _CMDPOS rule (shutdown/reboot/init/
systemctl/telinit and the rm root/home/system floor).
Tests: subshell/brace bypasses added to the hardline-block, root-wipe, and
yolo-bypass sets; a regression set asserts quoted paren/brace prose is NOT
blocked (guards our own gh-pr-create workflow).
3.14.1 is the current patched release on the 3.14 line; both CVE-2026-34993
(CookieJar.load RCE) and CVE-2026-47265 (per-request cookie leak on
cross-origin redirect) are fixed as of 3.14.0, and 3.14.1 rolls up the
subsequent point fixes. Re-locked uv.lock.
The messaging extra and platform.slack pin aiohttp==3.14.0, but several
lazy messaging features listed only their SDK and let aiohttp come in
transitively. Each of those SDKs caps aiohttp loosely enough that a
vulnerable already-installed aiohttp still satisfies the range, so the
eager extras got the patched floor while the lazy paths did not:
- discord.py (aiohttp>=3.7.4,<4)
- mautrix / aiohttp-socks (aiohttp>=3,<4 / aiohttp>=3.10.0) [Matrix]
- microsoft-teams-apps (aiohttp<4) [Teams]
(Teams additionally shipped an explicit but *stale* aiohttp==3.13.4 in
both the pyproject `teams` extra and platform.teams.)
- tools/lazy_deps.py: add aiohttp==3.14.0 to platform.discord, platform.matrix;
bump the stale platform.teams pin 3.13.4 -> 3.14.0.
- pyproject.toml: add aiohttp==3.14.0 to the matrix extra; bump the teams extra
3.13.4 -> 3.14.0 (homeassistant/sms/messaging already at 3.14.0).
- tests/test_packaging_metadata.py: test_security_pins_present_in_mirrored_lazy_features
now covers platform.discord/slack/matrix/teams. The existing agree-guard only
compares packages pinned in BOTH sources, so it can't catch a lazy feature
that omits a pin entirely; this guard is an explicit coverage contract
(security package -> lazy features that must carry it) and fails with
'platform.matrix: aiohttp=MISSING' if a floor is dropped again.
- uv.lock: regenerated, zero drift (aiohttp 3.14.0).
- aiohttp 3.13.4 -> 3.14.0 (messaging/slack/homeassistant/sms extras +
lazy_deps platform.slack) — picks up CVE-2026-34993 (RCE via
CookieJar.load deserialization) and CVE-2026-47265 (per-request cookie
leak on cross-origin redirect). Both are fixed only in 3.14.0; there is
no 3.13.x backport.
- anthropic 0.86.0 -> 0.87.0 (anthropic extra) — CVE-2026-34450 /
CVE-2026-34452. lazy_deps provider.anthropic was already 0.87.0; the
extra pin had drifted back to the vulnerable 0.86.0, so this realigns it.
- cryptography pinned explicitly at 46.0.7 in core deps — CVE-2026-39892,
CVE-2026-34073. It only arrives transitively via PyJWT[crypto]; the
explicit floor keeps the WeCom/Weixin crypto paths from drifting below
the fix.
uv.lock regenerated; only aiohttp / anthropic moved (cryptography already
resolved to 46.0.7). Verified 3.14.0 satisfies discord.py 2.7.1
(aiohttp>=3.7.4,<4) and slack-sdk 3.40.1 (aiohttp>=3.7.3,<4).
rm -rf //, /., /./, /.. and //* all resolve to / in the shell but slipped
past the root-filesystem hardline pattern, whose target group only matched
the literal / and /* tokens. They fell to the softer DANGEROUS_PATTERNS
'delete in root path' rule, which --yolo / approvals.mode=off / cron
approve-mode are designed to bypass — leaving the one unconditional floor
open to a full root wipe under yolo.
Broaden the root token from '/|/\\*|/ \\*' to '/[/.]*\\**' inside
_hardline_rm_path so any root-anchored path whose components collapse back
to / (repeated slashes plus ./.. segments) with an optional trailing glob
is caught. A trailing real segment (/tmp, /home, /.ssh) still fails to
match and stays with the softer rules.

auxv leaks AT_RANDOM (stack canary seed) + AT_BASE/AT_PHDR load
addresses — an ASLR oracle on par with maps. pagemap exposes
virtual->physical translation. Both slipped through the endswith
tuple alongside the maps family covered by the salvaged commit.
Adds regression coverage for auxv/pagemap and for the per-thread
/proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/<file> alias form (endswith catches both).
Follow-up on #32238, closes#34430.
PR #4609 blocked /proc/*/maps to prevent ASLR layout leakage, but the
endswith("/maps") check does not match /proc/*/smaps or
/proc/*/smaps_rollup — both expose the same virtual-address layout and
bypass the guard. /proc/*/numa_maps carries the same data with NUMA
annotations and is equally bypassed. /proc/*/mem (raw process memory)
is added as defence-in-depth; it requires address knowledge to exploit
but is blocked for consistency.
Extends the endswith tuple in _is_blocked_device_path() to cover all
four variants and adds regression assertions for all new paths to
test_proc_sensitive_pseudo_files_blocked.
Partially addresses #4427.
## What does this PR do?
Closes a critical bypass of the dangerous-command approval system. The
normalizer that every command passes through before pattern matching
(`_normalize_command_for_detection`) already strips ANSI, null bytes,
fullwidth Unicode, backslash escapes and empty-quote token splits — but
it did nothing about the shell `IFS` variable. In any POSIX shell `$IFS`
and `${IFS}` expand to whitespace, so a command written as
`rm${IFS}-rf${IFS}/` is executed by the live shell as `rm -rf /` while
the detection regexes — which anchor on literal `\s` between a command and
its arguments — never fire.
The impact is severe: this evades BOTH layers at once. It slips past every
entry in `DANGEROUS_PATTERNS` (so `curl${IFS}...|sh`, `sed${IFS}-i`
against `~/.hermes/config.yaml`, sudo privilege flags, etc. auto-run with
no approval prompt) AND the unconditional hardline floor that is
documented as un-bypassable "not even with --yolo" (`rm -rf /`, `mkfs`,
`dd` to a raw block device, `shutdown`/`reboot`, fork bomb). A
prompt-injected or malicious instruction could wipe the host filesystem or
power the box off while the approval system reports nothing. Confirmed at
runtime before the fix: `detect_hardline_command('rm${IFS}-rf /')` returned
`(False, None)`.
The fix mirrors the shell's own expansion: it collapses `$IFS` / `${IFS}`
(including the bash substring form `${IFS:0:1}`) to a single space inside
the existing de-obfuscation block, so the whitespace-anchored patterns
match exactly as they do for the un-obfuscated command. It is deliberately
narrow and safe — a `\b` word boundary keeps it from touching unrelated
variables like `$IFSACONFIG`, so it cannot introduce false positives on
legitimate commands.

## Type of Change
- [x] 🔒 Security fix
## Changes Made
- `tools/approval.py`: in `_normalize_command_for_detection`, substitute
`$IFS` / `${IFS}` (and `${IFS:...}`) expansions with a literal space
before dangerous/hardline pattern matching, alongside the existing
backslash and empty-quote de-obfuscation.
- `tests/tools/test_approval.py`: add `TestIFSWhitespaceBypass` covering
the brace, bare and substring IFS forms against both
`detect_hardline_command` and `detect_dangerous_command`, plus
regression guards that a look-alike variable (`$IFSACONFIG`) and plain
safe commands are not flagged. Import `detect_hardline_command`.
## How to Test
1. Reproduce the hole (pre-fix): `detect_hardline_command('rm${IFS}-rf /')`
returns `(False, None)` and `detect_dangerous_command(...)` returns
`(False, ...)`, i.e. a host-destroying command is auto-approved.
2. With the fix applied, both now flag the command: hardline match
"recursive delete of root filesystem" and dangerous match "delete in
root path".
3. Run the suite: `pytest tests/tools/test_approval.py
tests/tools/test_hardline_blocklist.py -q` — the new
`TestIFSWhitespaceBypass` cases pass and nothing else regresses.

_strategy_exact advanced its scan cursor by pos+1 instead of
pos+len(pattern), so self-overlapping patterns (e.g. "aa" in "aaaa")
matched at overlapping offsets. _apply_replacements works in reverse
order, so the second replacement operated on already-modified content
using stale offsets — corrupting the file and reporting the wrong count
under replace_all=True. Advancing by len(pattern) matches str.replace()
semantics.
Subprocesses spawned by the terminal tool, execute_code, Docker backend, and
the codex app-server could inherit Hermes-internal secrets that the name-based
`_HERMES_PROVIDER_ENV_BLOCKLIST` can't enumerate, because they're injected into
`os.environ` at runtime under dynamic names:
- `AUXILIARY_<TASK>_API_KEY` / `AUXILIARY_<TASK>_BASE_URL` — per-task side-LLM
credentials bridged from `config.yaml[auxiliary]` by gateway/run.py and cli.py
(vision, web_extract, approval, compression, plugin-registered tasks). Often
separate, higher-spend keys plus base URLs pointing at private endpoints.
- `GATEWAY_RELAY_*_SECRET` / `_KEY` / `_TOKEN` — relay-auth material provisioned
by gateway/relay.
Additionally, agent/transports/codex_app_server.py built its spawn env from a
raw `os.environ.copy()`, bypassing the centralized `hermes_subprocess_env()`
helper entirely — handing every codex subprocess the full Tier-1 secret set
(GH_TOKEN, gateway bot tokens, Modal/Daytona infra tokens, dashboard session
token) unfiltered. This is the #29157 sibling spawn-site gap; copilot_acp_client
already routes through the helper.
Fix — single chokepoint:
- Add `_is_hermes_internal_secret(key)` in tools/environments/local.py as the
single source of truth for the dynamic secret patterns. Matches
AUXILIARY_*_API_KEY / _BASE_URL and GATEWAY_RELAY_*_SECRET/_KEY/_TOKEN; leaves
non-secret AUXILIARY_*_PROVIDER/_MODEL and GATEWAY_RELAY routing hints visible.
- Wire the predicate into every spawn path unconditionally (ignores skill
env_passthrough opt-in AND inherit_credentials — a model-driving CLI never
needs these): `_sanitize_subprocess_env` (both loops), `_make_run_env`
(foreground), `hermes_subprocess_env` (Tier-1), and the Docker forward filter.
- Add the static GATEWAY_RELAY_* names to `_HERMES_PROVIDER_ENV_BLOCKLIST` so the
exact-match path catches them independently of the predicate.
- Add the GATEWAY_RELAY_ID/_SECRET/_DELIVERY_KEY triplet to `_ALWAYS_STRIP_KEYS`
(Tier-1) so it is stripped unconditionally on EVERY spawn surface — including
the codex/copilot `inherit_credentials=True` path that skips the Tier-2
blocklist. `_SECRET`/`_DELIVERY_KEY` are already predicate-matched; `_ID` has
no secret suffix, so enumerating it here is what closes its leak on the
inherit path (self-review W1).
- Defense in depth: env_passthrough.py `_is_hermes_provider_credential()` now
consults the same predicate, so a skill can't register these names as
passthrough and tunnel them into an execute_code / terminal child.
- Route codex_app_server through `hermes_subprocess_env(inherit_credentials=True)`
— strips Tier-1 + dynamic-internal secrets while provider creds (which codex
needs to authenticate) still flow.
Consolidates PRs #53715 (necoweb3 — the _is_hermes_internal_secret backbone +
Docker filter), #53503 (srojk34 — env_passthrough guard), and #55709 (srojk34 —
codex routing). Retires #52348 (claudlos): its copilot half is already on main,
and its codex half used the full-strip `_sanitize_subprocess_env` which would
break codex provider auth — the correct tier is `inherit_credentials=True`.
Tests: TestHermesInternalDynamicSecrets (terminal + predicate + passthrough
override), TestInternalDynamicSecrets (hermes_subprocess_env both tiers),
TestSpawnEnvSecretStripping (codex spawn env), plus env_passthrough
defense-in-depth cases.

A literal "rm -rf /" carried as DATA inside another command's quoted
argument — a PR title, a git commit -m message, an echo/printf arg —
tripped the unconditional root-filesystem hardline and could not run at
all. `gh pr create --title "block rm -rf / spellings"` was blocked
outright, because the bare rm path branch matched the mid-string "rm"
(via \brm) with the space after "/" satisfying its (\s|$) terminator.
Anchor the shared _RM_FLAG_PREFIX to _CMDPOS so the rm hardline rules
fire only when rm is an actual command word (start of line, after a
separator ; && || |, after a subshell opener $()/backtick, or after
sudo/env/exec wrappers) — not when the string appears as an argument
value. Broaden the bare-path terminator to also accept shell
metacharacters ) ` ; | & so a real wipe inside a command substitution
is still caught.
The quoted-path branch is unchanged, so quoted root/HOME paths stay
blocked. Adds regression tests for both directions: data-arg false
positives must NOT block, real wipes at every command position must block.
The model-facing cronjob tool accepts free-form provider + base_url. On fire,
the scheduler pairs the named provider's stored credential with the job's
base_url, so a prompt-injected job (e.g. provider=anthropic,
base_url=https://attacker/v1) sends the real API key to an attacker endpoint. A
base_url with no provider inherits the default provider's key for the same
effect.
Add a fail-closed guard at the tool boundary: a base_url override is allowed
only for the custom/BYOK sentinel, a configured custom_providers entry, or when
the override host matches the named provider's own endpoint; an override without
an explicit provider is rejected. The trust boundary is the caller, so
operator-configured base_urls for named providers are unaffected.

echo <base64> | base64 -d | bash (and base32/base16, xxd -r, tr
transforms, openssl base64/enc -d) decode a dangerous command at
runtime — the raw text carries no dangerous keyword, so the denylist
never fired. Adds DANGEROUS_PATTERNS entries for decode-and-execute
pipes into a shell.
eval $(curl ...), source $(wget ...), and . $(curl ...) executed
remote content but were not covered by the existing pipe-to-shell /
process-substitution patterns. Adds a DANGEROUS_PATTERNS entry so these
command-substitution forms consistently request approval.
Original authorship preserved from PR #26965 (bot-authored commit
re-attributed to the human contributor).
Command-name obfuscation bypassed the dangerous-command denylist: the
executable name could be spelled with shell tricks that survive regex
matching but still resolve to a blocked command at runtime —
$(echo rm), ${0/x/r}m, backticks, and printf substitutions.
Adds a non-executing shell-word scanner that deobfuscates only at
command positions (start, after ;|&&||, inside $(...), after
sudo/env/exec/... wrappers) and feeds the resulting variants through
the existing HARDLINE_PATTERNS / DANGEROUS_PATTERNS — no second
blocklist. Scoping to command words keeps ordinary arguments
(echo $(echo rm) -rf /) from being promoted into command names.

`_normalize_command_for_detection` strips backslash-escapes before matching
DANGEROUS_PATTERNS and HARDLINE_PATTERNS, but the strip rule was
`re.sub(r'\\([^\n])', r'\1', ...)` — its `[^\n]` class deliberately skips
newlines. A backslash immediately followed by a newline is a POSIX line
continuation: the shell removes BOTH characters and joins the tokens, so
`rm -rf \<newline>/` executes as `rm -rf /`. With the dangling backslash left
in place, the structured rm/dd/mkfs patterns no longer match because a literal
`\` sits wedged between the tokens they expect to be adjacent.
The worst consequence is on the HARDLINE floor. The dangerous-command layer
still fired here only by accident (the generic `\brm\s+-[^\s]*r` "recursive
delete" rule needs no path), and that layer is bypassed by `--yolo` /
`approvals.mode=off`. The hardline blocklist — the unconditional floor reserved
for catastrophic, unrecoverable commands and meant to hold even under yolo —
anchors the root path directly after the flags, so `rm -rf \<newline>/`,
`rm -r\<newline>f /`, and `rm -rf \<newline>~` all slipped past it entirely.
A yolo session could therefore wipe the root filesystem.
The fix collapses line continuations (`\` + `\n` or `\r\n`) to nothing,
mirroring the shell, before the existing escape strip runs. This was the gap
left by 621bf3a87, which added the escape strip but only for non-newline chars.
## What does this PR do?
Closes a shell line-continuation bypass in the dangerous-command detector.
Before: `rm -rf \<newline>/` normalized to `rm -rf \<newline>/`, so the
hardline root-delete patterns did not match and the command could run under
`--yolo`. After: line continuations are collapsed first, the command
normalizes to `rm -rf /`, and the hardline floor blocks it unconditionally.

## Type of Change
- [x] 🔒 Security fix
## Changes Made
- `tools/approval.py`: in `_normalize_command_for_detection`, add
`command = re.sub(r'\\\r?\n', '', command)` ahead of the existing
backslash-escape strip so shell line continuations (`\`+newline, LF or CRLF)
are removed exactly as the shell would, instead of leaving a stray backslash
that breaks the structured patterns.
- `tests/tools/test_hardline_blocklist.py`: add a parametrized
`test_hardline_blocks_line_continuation` covering the root, in-flag, home,
CRLF, and mkfs continuation forms, plus
`test_line_continuation_root_wipe_cannot_bypass_hardline` asserting the
continuation root wipe stays blocked even with `HERMES_YOLO_MODE=1`.
## How to Test
1. Reproduce: stash the `tools/approval.py` change and run
`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/tools/test_hardline_blocklist.py` — the new
line-continuation cases fail (`rm -rf \<newline>/` is not flagged hardline,
and leaks past the floor under yolo).
2. Restore the change and rerun the file — all 106 tests pass.
3. Regression: `scripts/run_tests.sh tests/tools/test_approval.py` (the
existing fullwidth/ANSI/null-byte normalization and multiline cases still
pass).

# Conflicts:
# tools/approval.py
The salvaged write-target boundary included `#` in its char class, so a
`#` glued to the redirect/tee path (`echo x > .env#backup`) matched as a
comment boundary and flagged the write as dangerous. But the shell writes
to the distinct file `.env#backup`, not `.env` — a false positive, same
class as the config.yaml.bak case the PR already excluded. Drop `#` from
the boundary; a real trailing comment is always whitespace-preceded (\\s).
Adds regression tests for .env#backup, config.yaml#backup, and
tee .env#backup staying out of the deny.
The dangerous-command approval gate has rules that flag a shell command
when it overwrites a project `.env` or `config.yaml` — these files hold
API keys, DB passwords, and (for `config.yaml`) the approval policy
itself, so a write to them should require user approval. The matching
`write_file`/`patch` deny on the file-tools side was paired with these
terminal-side rules so neither path is an open door.
The redirection and `tee` rules anchored the sensitive path with
`_COMMAND_TAIL` (`(?:\s*(?:&&|\|\||;).*)?$`), which only tolerates the
rest of the line being empty or a command separator. The problem: in
POSIX shell the redirection target is fixed regardless of what trails it.
`echo secret > .env extra` still truncates `.env` (the `extra` is just
another argument to `echo`), and `echo secret > .env # note` does too
(the `#` starts a comment). Because neither tail is a separator, the old
anchor failed to match and the command sailed through approval — a
prompt-injected step could overwrite a project `.env`/`config.yaml`
unprompted. The system-path redirection rule one line above never had
this restriction and already caught these forms.
The fix introduces `_WRITE_TARGET_BOUNDARY`, a lookahead that only
requires the path token to END at a shell word boundary (whitespace,
quote, separator, redirection operator, `#`, or EOL) rather than
demanding the rest of the line be empty. It is applied to the two
stream-write rules (redirection and `tee`) where the sensitive path is
always a write target. The `cp`/`mv`/`install` rule deliberately keeps
`_COMMAND_TAIL`: there the sensitive file is only a target when it is the
LAST argument (the destination), so requiring end-of-line is correct and
keeps `cp config.yaml backup.yaml` (config.yaml as the source) out of the
deny.
## What does this PR do?
Closes a bypass in the dangerous-command approval gate where a trailing
argument or `#` comment after a `>`/`>>`/`tee` write target let a command
overwrite a project `.env` or `config.yaml` without triggering approval,
even though the shell still overwrites the file.
## Related Issue

## Type of Change
- [x] 🔒 Security fix
## Changes Made
- `tools/approval.py`: add `_WRITE_TARGET_BOUNDARY` (a word-boundary
lookahead) and use it instead of `_COMMAND_TAIL` in the two
project-env/config stream-write patterns ("overwrite project env/config
via tee" and "via redirection"). `_COMMAND_TAIL` is kept and still used
by the `cp`/`mv`/`install` rule, where end-of-line anchoring is the
correct semantics.
- `tests/tools/test_approval.py`: add regression tests for
`> .env extra`, `> .env # note`, `>> config.yaml foo`, and
`tee .env backup` (now flagged), plus `> config.yaml.bak` (must stay
safe — different file).
## How to Test
1. Reproduce: before the fix,
`detect_dangerous_command("echo secret > .env extra")` returns
`(False, None, None)` — the overwrite is not flagged.
2. Apply the fix; the same call now returns the "overwrite project
env/config via redirection" detection.
3. Run `pytest tests/tools/test_approval.py -q` — the new cases pass and
the existing `cp config.yaml backup.yaml` / `config.yaml.bak`
false-positive guards still hold.

Review follow-up on the private-page action guard:
- Add test_guard_inactive_does_not_block_or_probe: when the SSRF guard is
inactive (local backend / allow_private_urls), click/type/press must proceed
WITHOUT probing the page URL. This is the branch most likely to silently
regress if the guard condition is inverted; a mutation check (flipping the
condition) confirms the test fails as designed.
- Add test_camofox_short_circuits_before_guard: camofox mode returns from the
dedicated camofox_* path before the guard runs; guards never consulted.
- Fix PEP8: 3 -> 2 blank lines before _blocked_private_page_action.
## What does this PR do?
Closes a critical hole in the hardline command floor. HARDLINE_PATTERNS is
the unconditional last line of defense: detect_hardline_command runs BEFORE
every yolo / approvals.mode=off / cron approve-mode bypass, so it is the only
gate standing between the agent (or a prompt-injected instruction) and an
irrecoverable disk wipe. The three rm rules anchored on a bare path token,
and _normalize_command_for_detection never strips shell quotes — so the
ordinary, recommended shell idioms slipped straight through:
rm -rf "/" rm -rf '/' rm -rf "/etc"
rm -rf "$HOME" rm -rf ${HOME} rm -rf "${HOME}"
All of these returned NO hardline match. A leading quote pushes the path out
of reach of the flag group, a trailing quote breaks the `(\s|$)` terminator,
and the `${HOME}` brace form was never listed at all. Under --yolo,
approvals.mode=off, or cron approve-mode the dangerous-command layer is also
skipped, so these commands reached execution with zero gate — exactly the
unrecoverable data loss the floor is documented to make impossible. Because
quoting paths and `${HOME}` are normal shell usage, not exotic obfuscation,
this is a high-severity, easily-triggered bypass.
The fix makes the rm path matcher quote- and brace-tolerant while staying
conservative: a path is matched when it is either fully wrapped in its own
matching quote pair (`"/"`) or bare with a whitespace/end terminator. The
matching-quote requirement is deliberate so the change adds no new false
positives — a dangerous-looking string that is merely an argument to another
command (e.g. `git commit -m "rm -rf /"`) has a closing quote but no opening
quote of its own around the path, so neither branch fires.

path either fully quoted or bare-with-terminator), factored the protected
system-dir list into `_HARDLINE_SYSTEM_DIRS` and the rm flag prefix into
`_RM_FLAG_PREFIX`, and rebuilt the three rm `HARDLINE_PATTERNS` on top of
them, adding the `${HOME}` brace form. Kept as plain concatenation so regex
backslashes never land inside an f-string field (Python 3.11 floor).
- `tests/tools/test_hardline_blocklist.py`: added quoted (`"/"`, `'/'`,
`"/etc"`, `"$HOME"`, ...) and brace (`${HOME}`, `"${HOME}"`) cases to the
must-block set, a dedicated `_QUOTED_BRACE_BYPASS` regression parametrization,
no-false-positive guards (`git commit -m "rm -rf /"`), and extended the
yolo-cannot-bypass integration test to cover the quoted/brace forms.
## How to Test
1. Reproduce the bypass on `main`: `detect_hardline_command('rm -rf "/"')`
returns `(False, None)` — the floor lets it through.
2. With this change it returns `(True, "recursive delete of root filesystem")`;
the same holds for `'/'`, `"/etc"`, `"$HOME"`, `${HOME}`, `"${HOME}"`.
3. Run the suite: `scripts/run_tests.sh tests/tools/test_hardline_blocklist.py`
— 125 passed, including the new bypass and no-false-positive cases.

Inside httpx AsyncClient response event hooks, response.next_request is
often None even for a genuine redirect, so guards keyed on
`if response.is_redirect and response.next_request` silently never fire.
A public URL that 302s to http://169.254.169.254/ was followed anyway,
defeating the pre-flight is_safe_url() check.
Resolve the redirect target from the Location header (via urljoin, so
relative Locations work too), falling back to next_request only when no
Location is present. Extracted as tools.url_safety.redirect_target_from_response
and wired into every SSRF redirect guard:
- gateway/platforms/base.py (shared image + audio download for all platforms)
- tools/vision_tools.py (two download hooks)
- plugins/platforms/slack/adapter.py
Original fix by @zapabob (PR #35940), which targeted the since-refactored
gateway/platforms/slack.py; reconstructed onto the current shared sites and
widened to the whole bug class.
Review of the salvage found the timeout-message redaction left the more
common failure mode unguarded: when the first websockets.connect(cdp_url)
fails (bad URI / refused / TLS), the raw websockets exception -- which
embeds the full cdp_url incl. ?token= and user:pass@ -- is stashed as
_start_error and re-raised verbatim by start(), and two reconnect
logger.warning sites log the same raw exception.
Add a module-level _redact_cdp_error_text() chokepoint (delegating to
agent.redact.redact_cdp_url) and route all four supervisor egress points
through it:
- start() TimeoutError message (already covered; kept)
- start() _start_error re-raise -> now raises a redacted RuntimeError with
'from None' so no secret leaks via message OR traceback cause chain
- connect-failed and session-dropped reconnect warnings
Guard tests assert the re-raised message is redacted for both token and
userinfo, the raw cause is suppressed, and the helper preserves non-secret
context (host/reason). Verified with a mutation check: reverting to the raw
'raise err' fails the new tests. Correct the redact_cdp_url docstring to
scope its guarantee to direct-URL redaction and point exception callers at
the supervisor helper.
The session-log fix (browser_tool._sanitize_url_for_logs) and the
supervisor attach-timeout fix (CDPSupervisor.start) both composed the
same three redactors (redact_sensitive_text -> _redact_url_query_params
-> _redact_url_userinfo) to mask CDP endpoint credentials. Two copies of
one policy drift: tune one site (e.g. add fragment masking) and the other
silently re-leaks.
Promote that composition to a single public helper redact_cdp_url() in
agent/redact.py -- the one place the CDP-URL redaction policy lives -- and
route both call sites through it (_sanitize_url_for_logs becomes a thin
wrapper; the supervisor imports the helper instead of re-composing the
private redactors). Add direct unit tests for the seam covering query
tokens, multiple credentials, userinfo passwords, plain-URL passthrough,
non-string/exception coercion, and None.
No behavior change at the call sites; both leak paths remain closed.
PR #54851 added _sanitize_url_for_logs() and wired it into the three log
sites inside _resolve_cdp_override(). A fourth site was missed:
_create_cdp_session() logs the already-resolved cdp_url unconditionally,
and CDPSupervisor.start() interpolates the raw cdp_url[:80] into the
attach-timeout TimeoutError (which _ensure_cdp_supervisor() logs with %s).
Both leak query-string credentials (e.g. ?token=secret from hosted CDP
providers) into Hermes logs.
Sanitize the URL at both remaining sites. The raw URL is preserved
unmodified in the returned session dict and used for the real connection;
only the logged/error representation is redacted.

- threat_patterns.py: replace unbounded (?:\w+\s+)* filler with bounded
{0,8} + cap scan input at MAX_SCAN_CHARS (64KiB), and bound the .*
runs in the exfil/config-mod patterns. Kills catastrophic backtracking
on adversarial near-misses.

extract quoted phrases with a linear scan instead of a regex so
pathological quote runs can't induce backtracking.
- acp_adapter/edit_approval.py + agent/tool_dispatch_helpers.py: recognize

The MCP input-schema normalizer in _normalize_mcp_input_schema promotes the
legacy JSON Schema 'definitions' meta-keyword to '$defs' (draft 2019-09+)
so local '$ref' resolution works downstream. The previous walk renamed
*any* key named 'definitions' anywhere in the tree, including inside
'properties' dicts. That turned user-facing parameter names into '$defs',
producing property keys that contain '$', which Anthropic and OpenAI
both reject with HTTP 400 (pattern '^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]{1,64}$').
Real-world repro: an MCP server that exposes a CI/pipelines tool whose
'definitions' parameter is an array of pipeline-definition IDs. Such a tool
is enough on its own to break every conversation, because the full tools
array is sent on every request.
Fix: when descending into a 'properties' or 'patternProperties' mapping,
iterate property-name -> schema pairs directly, leaving the property names
verbatim. Ordinary JSON Schema semantics resume inside each property's
schema, so a legitimately nested 'definitions' meta-keyword inside a
property's schema is still promoted.
Adds two regression tests:
- test_definitions_as_property_name_is_preserved (the property-name case)
- test_definitions_property_and_meta_keyword_coexist (both forms in one
schema; the property name stays, the meta-keyword promotes)
The gateway/API server rebuilds the in-memory TodoStore by replaying
caller-supplied conversation_history. _hydrate_todo_store previously
accepted any role:tool message containing a "todos" array, so a forged
bare tool result could seed arbitrary todo state and re-inflate context
every turn (GHSA-5g4g-6jrg-mw3g).
Restrict hydration to tool results paired with an earlier assistant
todo tool call (matching tool_call_id, function name == todo, no
user/system boundary between). Reuse the existing _get_tool_call_id/
name_static helpers so dict- and object-shaped tool calls both work.
Add a generous MAX_TODO_RESULT_CHARS payload guard to drop absurd
forged results before parsing; item/content caps already exist on main.

Two related bugs caused subagent delegation to silently return empty summaries
with 0 tokens when the user configured delegation.provider=bedrock alongside
delegation.base_url=https://bedrock-runtime.<region>.amazonaws.com.
Root cause #1 — misrouting in _resolve_delegation_credentials():
The configured_base_url branch unconditionally forced provider='custom' and
api_mode='chat_completions', only specializing for chatgpt.com, anthropic,
and kimi hosts. Bedrock (and other native-SDK providers) fell through as
'custom' + chat_completions, which then POSTed OpenAI-shaped JSON at
Bedrock's native API. Bedrock rejected the payload and returned nothing,
which looked like an empty LLM response to the child agent.
Fix: when provider is one of {bedrock, vertex, google, google-genai}, skip
the base_url short-circuit and fall through to resolve_runtime_provider(),
which knows how to construct the proper SDK client. base_url can still be
forwarded through that path for regional overrides.
Root cause #2 — '(empty)' sentinel accepted as success:
After N retries of empty LLM responses, run_agent.py emits the literal
string '(empty)' as final_response. _run_single_child then hit
`elif summary:` — '(empty)' is truthy, so status became 'completed' and
the parent surfaced a blank result with no error. Users saw api_calls=4,
tokens=0, duration~0.4s, status=completed.
Fix: treat final_response.strip() == '(empty)' as a failure so the parent
surfaces it instead of silently accepting zero-content 'success'.
Both paths were reproduced in a live Hermes TUI session on us-west-2 Bedrock
(provider=bedrock, model=us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-6) and are covered by
new tests in tests/tools/test_delegate.py.
Follow-up to the salvaged #22070. The cron-deny tirith ImportError branch
was unconditionally fail-open; now it honours security.tirith_fail_open:
false by blocking (a cron session has no user to approve), mirroring the
main flow's fail-closed synthesis (#20733).
Adds regression tests: tirith-only content threat blocked in cron-deny,
plus fail-closed/fail-open ImportError behavior.
In check_all_command_guards, the cron-deny path only ran
detect_dangerous_command (regex patterns). The tirith check starts at
line 1017, after the early return at line 1002, so content-level threats
caught only by tirith (homograph URLs, pipe-to-interpreter, terminal
injection) were silently approved in cron sessions even with
approvals.cron_mode: deny.
Add a tirith call inside the cron-deny block, mirroring the same
ImportError guard used in the main flow.

Text-only Matrix messages sent via the send_message engine (hermes send,
cron deliver: matrix) arrived unencrypted (red padlock) in E2EE rooms.
Media sends already routed through the mautrix adapter and encrypted fine,
but text-only sends took the raw-HTTP standalone_sender_fn path, which
never encrypts.
Route ALL Matrix sends through _send_matrix_via_adapter so text is
encrypted too. The adapter reuses the live gateway's E2EE session when
available (#46310) and falls back to an encryption-aware ephemeral adapter
for standalone/cron contexts. The registry standalone_sender_fn stays
registered for the contract; it is simply no longer reached for Matrix.
Salvaged from PR #20259 onto current main (the original patched the
pre-#41112 _send_matrix branch, which had since moved to the plugin's
standalone path).

GNU tools accept unique long-option prefix abbreviations at runtime, so
`chown --recurs root` and `git push --forc` evaded the approval gate's
exact-match `--recursive`/`--force` patterns. Switch those two entries
to prefix matches (--recur[a-z]*, --forc[a-z]*).
The rm/chmod/sed long-flag patterns were left unchanged: every abbreviation
of those is already caught by the sibling short-flag and target patterns
(rm -[^s]*r, base chmod 777, sed -[^s]*i), so prefix-matching them is a
no-op. Only chown (beyond the coincidental case-insensitive r->R catch) and
git push had genuine gaps.

The dangerous-command approval prompt renders the flagged command so the
user can decide whether to approve. If the agent constructed it with a
credential (curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer sk-...', psql postgres://user:pw@host,
an execute_code script with api_key = 'sk-...'), that secret hit stdout and,
via the gateway notify payload, Discord/Slack messages — which are
screenshottable and forwardable.
Apply the existing agent.redact.redact_sensitive_text() to every user-facing
approval surface. Redaction is display-only: the raw command still executes
after approval, and approval persistence keys off pattern_key (not the command
text), so the allowlist is unaffected. Decision context (URL, flags, command
structure) is preserved; only the secret value masks.
Covers all surfaces, including the execute_code path the original PR missed:
- prompt_dangerous_approval(): callback + stdout fallback
- check_all_command_guards(): gateway approval_data + cron/batch pending fallback
- check_execute_code_guard(): gateway approval_data + no-notifier pending fallback
(script body can embed credentials)
Adds TestApprovalPromptRedaction covering callback redaction, no-over-redaction
of clean commands, and the execute_code pending fallback.
Salvaged from PR #13139 by @sgabel; extended to the execute_code surface.
`handle_401` spawned a dedup'd recovery coroutine via
`asyncio.create_task(_do_handle())` and discarded the returned task
reference. Python's event loop only keeps weak references to tasks, so
the coroutine could be garbage-collected before it called
`pending.set_result(...)`. Every concurrent caller awaiting that future
then hangs forever, and the `finally: entry.pending_401.pop(...)`
cleanup never runs — so subsequent 401s for the same key latch onto the
dead future too. Same pattern the adapter-side fixes address (#11997,
#11998, #12000, #12001, #12006).
Hold the task in a process-wide set on the manager and discard it via
`add_done_callback` once it completes. Regression test covers both the
structural invariant (task tracked, then removed on completion) and a
concurrent dedup path with a forced `gc.collect()` between the handler's
await points.
Tool call ids are used to name persisted large-result files. Treating that id as a raw path segment allowed traversal-like ids to resolve outside hermes-results even though the shell command quoted metacharacters.
Convert ids to single filename stems, preserve normal ids, and add a short hash when normalization is needed so unsafe ids do not collide silently.
Constraint: Avoid new dependencies and preserve existing tool-result paths for normal tool call ids
Rejected: Quote only the path | shell quoting does not prevent ../ path traversal

The init snapshot dumped functions with a line-based filter:
declare -f | grep -vE '^_[^_]'
That strips a function's *header* line (e.g. `_foo () `) but leaves the
orphaned `{ ... }` body behind, corrupting the snapshot that is sourced
before every command. Sourcing the torn snapshot runs leftover body code
and breaks subsequent commands (intermittent exit 127).
- Filter private (`_`-prefixed) functions by NAME via `declare -F` and
dump only the wanted whole definitions, so a body is never torn. Guard
against an empty name list (bare `declare -f` dumps everything).
- Treat a non-zero bootstrap exit code as snapshot-init failure, so
execution safely falls back to login-shell-per-command mode.
- Add a regression test asserting snapshot_ready stays false when
bootstrap exits non-zero.
Preserves the atomic-write ($BASHPID temp + mv -f) machinery from #38249.
- tools/skills_hub.py: the per-call resolvers now honor a test-injected real
module attribute (patch.object(hub, 'SKILLS_DIR', ...) / monkeypatch.setattr)
before falling back to dynamic profile resolution. PEP 562 __getattr__ only
fires when no real attribute exists, so an unpatched module resolves the
active profile and a patched one respects the test's value — keeping the
existing skills_hub test seam intact (5 tests had broken).
- tests/test_profile_isolation_runtime.py: real two-profile (no-mock) suite
driving each previously-leaking site under override A then B and asserting
the active profile's path/identity is used: skills_hub paths + derived
constants + default-arg resolution, gateway cache getters (incl. the
monkeypatch-still-wins seam), rich_sent_store path, and thread/executor
context propagation (raw-thread hazard documented; primitive + _run_async
worker proven to preserve the override).
A bare threading.Thread / ThreadPoolExecutor worker starts with an empty
contextvars.Context, so the context-local profile override
(_HERMES_HOME_OVERRIDE) does not cross the spawn boundary. In single-process
multi-profile runtimes (desktop tui_gateway) the worker then resolves
get_hermes_home() to the launch/default profile, leaking one profile's
reads/writes into another. The fix primitive (tools.thread_context.
propagate_context_to_thread, which copies the parent context) already exists;
the leaking spawns simply did not use it.
- model_tools.py _run_async: wrap the worker-thread loop runner. This is the
generic sync->async bridge for every async tool, so wrapping it here fixes
the leak for all async tools at once (verified: an async tool reading
get_hermes_home() under an override now resolves the active profile).
- run_agent.py bg-review thread: wrap so MEMORY.md / skill review writes land
in the spawning turn's profile (#54937 path).
- tools/async_delegation.py: wrap both single + batch executor.submit calls so
detached children resolve the dispatching profile's paths.
Scope: the vision CPU executor is intentionally left unwrapped — it runs pure
in-memory encode/resize and never resolves profile-scoped paths.
In single-process multi-profile runtimes (desktop tui_gateway), profile
scoping is a context-local ContextVar override, not a process env var. Three
subsystems froze their HERMES_HOME-derived paths at import time (or read
os.environ directly), pinning every later profile to whichever profile first
imported the module — a cross-profile data leak.
- tools/skills_hub.py: SKILLS_DIR/HUB_DIR/LOCK_FILE/etc. were module constants
frozen at import. Replace with per-call resolver functions; add a PEP 562
module __getattr__ so external 'from tools.skills_hub import SKILLS_DIR'
callers (all function-local) resolve dynamically with no call-site changes.
Convert default-arg bindings (HubLockFile/TapsManager) and the derived
HERMES_INDEX_CACHE_FILE constant too.
- gateway/platforms/base.py: image/audio/video/document cache-dir getters now
re-resolve via get_hermes_dir() per call, falling back to the module
constant when a test has monkeypatched it (preserves the existing test seam).
Media-delivery safe-roots already enumerate all profiles' cache dirs
(#31733), so per-profile resolution does not break delivery.
- gateway/rich_sent_store.py: _store_path() read os.environ['HERMES_HOME']
directly, bypassing the override entirely; route through get_hermes_home().
The judge gate added for kanban_complete (Issue #38367, PR #38388) only
covers one of the two exit paths out of run_kanban_goal_loop(). The loop
treats status == "blocked" as terminal identically to "done" (and any
other status outside running/ready/done/blocked also stops the loop —
see goals.py's status dispatch). A goal_mode worker that has learned
kanban_complete is gated can simply call kanban_block(reason="anything")
to escape the loop with zero judge involvement, fully defeating the
intent of #38367's fix.
This is Issue #38696, filed as the explicit follow-up by a reviewer on
PR #38388: "kanban_complete is one way out; kanban_block is another...
A worker that learns the complete path is gated can shift to calling
block to escape the loop with the same effect."
Implements the issue's "Option B" (deterministic allowlist, no extra
judge LLM call) using the kind taxonomy that already exists in
kb.VALID_BLOCK_KINDS, rather than inventing a new judge_goal() outcome
type (judge_goal only returns done/continue/wait/skipped — there's no
"is this block legitimate" verdict to hook the issue's "Option A"
pseudocode onto without expanding the judge's contract).
goal_mode tasks may only block with kind in {dependency, needs_input} —
the two kinds that represent a genuine external blocker the worker
cannot resolve itself. `capability`, `transient`, and an unset kind are
rejected with a message directing the worker to kanban_complete instead,
which the judge now gates. Non-goal_mode tasks are completely unaffected.
Builds on the zero-match feedback fix (previous commit) to close the silent-hang
symptom: when memory is at capacity, a failed `add`/`replace`/`remove`
consolidation could loop the whole turn to iteration-budget exhaustion and
deliver no user-facing reply.
#41755 turned the at-capacity overflow error into a *commanded* in-turn retry
("...then retry this add — all in this turn"); combined with the fragile
substring-only `replace`/`remove` matching (LLMs can't reliably re-quote a long
entry verbatim), the model loops add↔replace on inexact guesses until the turn
dies. The existing tool_guardrails halt would catch this, but hard_stop_enabled
is opt-in (off by default), so a default install still hangs.
This fixes it at the memory layer without changing global guardrail behavior:
- MemoryStore tracks per-turn consolidation failures; after a cap (3) it drops
the "retry in this turn" instruction and returns a terminal "leave memory
unchanged, continue your reply" result, so a failed memory side effect can
never block the turn's reply.
- The counter resets on any successful write (progress) and at each turn
boundary (turn_context.reset_consolidation_failures, guarded via getattr so
plugin memory stores without the method are a no-op).

- replace() and remove() now return entry previews and current_entries
when no entry matches old_text, matching the multi-match and add-limit
error behavior
- add() limit error also now returns previews for consistency
- Agent can self-correct after a failed replace/remove instead of looping
blindly until turn budget is exhausted with no user response
Follow-up to the per-tool availability derivation: `_snapshot_toolset_checks`
and `_evaluate_toolset_check` had no remaining callers once the four
availability surfaces switched to `_toolset_has_exposable_tools`. Remove both,
drop the no-op `quiet` param from the new helper, and document why
`_toolset_checks` is still written (banner.py reads it via TOOLSET_REQUIREMENTS
to classify unavailable toolsets as lazy-init vs disabled).
Doctor and banner used the first check_fn registered for a toolset, so
desktop-only read_terminal gated the whole terminal toolset even though
terminal and process still expose at runtime.
