| """Red-team tests for the host-side path-confinement boundary (`_safe_path`). |
| |
| `_safe_path()` guards the three endpoints that turn a caller-supplied path into a |
| host filesystem read / open: |
| |
| GET /api/file/preview?path=... (read file contents) |
| GET /api/file/tree?root=... (list a directory) |
| POST /api/workspace/open (open in Finder/terminal) |
| |
| The allowed roots are the workspace root and the Hermes home dir. The interesting |
| attacks are the ones that *look* like an allowed path but resolve elsewhere: |
| |
| * a symlink placed inside the workspace whose target is outside every root, |
| * `..` traversal that climbs out of the workspace, |
| * an absolute path straight at a host secret. |
| |
| The fix relies on `Path(raw).resolve()` following symlinks *before* the |
| containment check. These tests pin that behaviour so a future "optimisation" |
| that drops the resolve (or checks the literal path) can't silently re-open the |
| hole. Existing happy-path / basic-rejection coverage lives in test_server.py and |
| test_workspace_open.py; this file is the adversarial layer. |
