From 327f2c557a1cbc7c9c07eaa238739c9c7ab93e3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: notque Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 18:00:50 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix(hooks): examine sensitive files reached via Bash; scope fixture exceptions (S4) check_sensitive_file ran only in the Write/Edit/Read tool branches, so the identical acts spelled as a shell command were never examined at all. Verified allowed before this change: `cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519`, `cp ~/.env /var/www/html/`, `cat > ~/.env`, while the Write-tool equivalents were denied. Bash commands are now scanned per segment. The posture mirrors the tool branches rather than inventing a stricter one for Bash: copy/write verbs (cp, mv, scp, rsync, tee, dd, install, rclone) and output-redirect targets DENY, because they duplicate a secret to a new location or overwrite a credential file, which is exactly what Write/Edit deny; read verbs (cat, less, head, base64, ...) WARN only, matching the Read tool and the reason its docstring gives -- agents routinely read a project's own .env while debugging and blocking that breaks common legitimate work. _SENSITIVE_EXCEPTIONS matched `/fixtures/` anywhere in a path, so a real credential file at /home/feedgen/fixtures/.env was excused from every check. Directory exceptions (fixtures, testdata, __fixtures__, test_data) now apply only when the path resolves inside the repo worktree; suffix exceptions (.env.example and friends) still apply anywhere. Three existing tests asserted the unscoped behavior using out-of-repo paths; they now use in-repo paths and gained paired out-of-repo deny rows. Adds the credential stores the home CLAUDE.md names but the pattern list missed: .git-credentials, .netrc, ~/.config/gh/hosts.yml, .envrc. This extends the list S1 modified rather than replacing it. Adds 44 table-driven rows: every closed bypass, warn-vs-deny posture rows asserting the advisory actually fires, exception-scoping rows in both directions, and false-positive rows for ordinary work (cat README.md, cp README.md /tmp/r, echo hi > /tmp/out.txt, grep -r token .). --- hooks/pretool-unified-gate.py | 181 +++++++++++++++++- hooks/tests/test_pretool_unified_gate.py | 28 ++- .../test_pretool_unified_gate_security.py | 178 +++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 378 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/hooks/pretool-unified-gate.py b/hooks/pretool-unified-gate.py index 1e67a87c..7dcf3893 100755 --- a/hooks/pretool-unified-gate.py +++ b/hooks/pretool-unified-gate.py @@ -365,12 +365,27 @@ def _force_push_protected(command: str) -> str | None: # THIS gate's dangerous/sensitive checks — writing one IS the disarm act, and # no agent flow legitimately writes them (owner-authored config only).
