From 5f804518b4f88f40ff446feaf9455298415d3c61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: SashaMIT Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 04:54:47 +0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix(server): validate push-notification URLs before dispatch (SSRF hardening) A client sets its push-notification webhook URL via tasks/pushNotificationConfig (or inline on message/send), and the server then POSTs task events to that URL. The URL was used exactly as supplied - no scheme check, no destination check - so every deployment of the reference sender exposed a blind server-side request forgery primitive: point a task's push config at http://169.254.169.254/... (cloud metadata), http://localhost:PORT/admin, or any internal service and the agent server POSTs there on every task event. BasePushNotificationSender now validates each URL at dispatch time: scheme must be http/https, the host must resolve, and every resolved address must be public unicast (loopback, link-local, private, reserved, multicast, and unspecified addresses are rejected; unresolvable hosts fail closed since the POST would fail anyway). Operators whose legitimate webhooks live on private networks can opt out with allow_private_push_urls=True. Validation happens at dispatch rather than at config-write so configs registered through any path (create, inline on send, future stores) are covered by the same choke point. Residual risk, documented in the constructor docstring: DNS rebinding between validation and the POST itself remains possible for attacker-controlled domains; static internal targets are fully blocked. Tests: 7 new unit tests (metadata IP, loopback, private range, non-http scheme, unresolvable host fail-closed, public allowed, opt-out); existing suites made DNS-hermetic; push-notification e2e app opts out since its webhooks are real local servers.
