Conversation
… escape (tinyhumansai#1927) src/openhuman/security/policy.rs — is_path_allowed() validated paths only at the string level: it rejected '..' components, URL-encoded '..%2F', null bytes, absolute paths under workspace_only, and prefix matches against forbidden_paths. None of those checks resolve symlinks. The companion is_resolved_path_allowed() exists and does canonicalize the workspace root, but all 8 filesystem tool sites (apply_patch, edit_file, file_read, file_write, grep, list_files, csv_export, browser/image_info) call only is_path_allowed and never the resolved variant. A symlink created inside the workspace pointing to a forbidden tree (e.g. 'evil' -> '/etc/shadow') passes the string check and the agent reads/writes the symlink target. Fix --- * Add a private helper try_canonicalize_under_workspace() that takes the user-supplied path, expands '~/', joins it under workspace_dir if relative, and attempts std::fs::canonicalize. When the path doesn't exist (e.g. a write-to-new-file call) it falls back to canonicalize(parent) + basename so the parent chain is still resolved through any symlinks. * At the end of is_path_allowed(), if the helper returns a canonical path, re-check it against the canonical workspace_root (workspace_only mode) and against the canonical forbidden_paths entries. Both checks use starts_with on the resolved path, so a symlink inside the workspace that points to a forbidden tree is now blocked even though its string spelling looks innocuous. * Existing string-level checks are preserved verbatim — the new canonicalize step is additive and only ever returns false; it cannot widen the policy. Tests ----- policy_tests.rs gains three cases under 'is_path_allowed — symlink safety (tinyhumansai#1927)': * symlink_inside_workspace_escaping_outside_is_blocked (#[cfg(unix)]) — creates a real symlink inside a tempdir workspace pointing into a second tempdir; assert is_path_allowed returns false for the symlink filename under workspace_only. * symlink_to_forbidden_tree_is_blocked (#[cfg(unix)]) — creates a symlink inside the workspace pointing into a directory listed in forbidden_paths (workspace_only off to isolate the forbidden_paths check); assert blocked. * write_to_not_yet_existing_path_in_workspace_still_allowed — regression check: writing to a new file inside the workspace must still pass when the path itself does not yet exist (parent-dir fallback path).

820-842: 💤 Low valueLGTM on the helper logic, but consider a TOCTOU note.
The
try_canonicalize_under_workspacehelper correctly:
- Expands tilde paths
- Joins relative paths under workspace_dir
- Falls back to parent canonicalization for non-existent paths
However, there's an inherent TOCTOU (time-of-check-to-time-of-use) window: an attacker with write access to the workspace could create a symlink after
is_path_allowedreturns but before the actual file operation. This is a known limitation of pre-check validation and is acceptable here since:
- The attacker would need write access to the workspace already
- The fix still closes the primary attack vector (pre-existing symlinks)
- Full mitigation would require kernel-level
openat2withRESOLVE_NO_SYMLINKSNo code change needed, but documenting this in the function's doc comment would help future maintainers.

…kspace The canonicalize step added in the parent commit walked every resolved path through forbidden_paths even when the path lived inside the workspace. Default forbidden_paths includes /tmp (and other system roots), and the tools/impl/filesystem integration tests construct their workspaces under tempdir — invariably /tmp/something on Linux CI. Result: every legitimate filesystem tool call against a /tmp workspace (file_read_existing_file, file_read_nested_path, edit_replaces_unique_match, apply_patch_*, …) was now rejected, and even the pre-existing file_read_blocks_symlink_escape regression case flipped to FAILED because the symlink target check went down the forbidden path before the escape check had a chance to fire with the expected message. Treat the workspace as a trusted unit: only paths that escape the workspace are subject to the forbidden_paths re-check. workspace_only still rejects any canonical escape outright (so the original symlink attack from tinyhumansai#1927 still gets blocked); a path that resolves back inside the workspace skips both gates. The new symlink tests in policy_tests.rs are unchanged — they all construct an explicit empty forbidden_paths or aim the symlink at a sibling tempdir outside the workspace, so the in-workspace short circuit doesn't apply to them. The CI regressions on filesystem tool tests resolve once forbidden_paths stops firing for in-workspace paths.
CI Rust Quality (fmt + clippy) flagged a Diff in policy.rs:801. The forbidden_expanded let-binding had its assignment broken across two lines; rustfmt prefers the if-let chain inline. Pure whitespace fix.
…#1927 in image_info instead The canonicalize step PR tinyhumansai#2045 added to is_path_allowed turned out to be redundant and harmful. 7 of the 8 filesystem tools the issue named (file_read, file_write, edit_file, apply_patch, grep, list_files, csv_export) already pair their string-level is_path_allowed call with a tokio::fs::canonicalize + is_resolved_path_allowed check that emits 'Resolved path escapes workspace'. Moving the canonical escape rejection into is_path_allowed short-circuited that tool-layer check, so the pre-existing regression tests failed with 'Path not allowed' instead of the expected 'escapes workspace' wording. The real surface tinyhumansai#1927 was pointing at is browser/image_info.rs — the only filesystem-reading tool that string-checked the input and then went straight to tokio::fs::metadata + tokio::fs::read on the raw path. A symlink inside the workspace whose target was outside it would exfiltrate the target file through this tool. Two changes: 1. Revert the canonicalize block + try_canonicalize_under_workspace helper added to security/policy.rs across the three earlier PR tinyhumansai#2045 commits. Also revert the three symlink test cases added to policy_tests.rs — that property is now owned at the tool layer where the sibling tools already cover it. 2. Add the missing canonicalize + is_resolved_path_allowed pair to browser/image_info.rs, mirroring file_read.rs. The exists check stays in front so execute_nonexistent_file keeps producing 'File not found' instead of 'Failed to resolve image path'. metadata + read now operate on resolved_path, so the symlink target is what's actually inspected, and is_resolved_path_allowed gates that target before any I/O. 3. New cfg(unix) test image_info_blocks_symlink_escape: writes a valid PNG outside the workspace, symlinks it into the workspace, asserts the tool rejects with 'escapes workspace'. Without this PR the symlink read succeeded and the tool returned the exfiltrated format + dimensions. Local: cargo check --lib clean; cargo fmt --check clean.

Walkthrough
Solid, focused security fix. PR #2045 closes the symlink escape gap in image_info.rs — the one filesystem tool that was missing the canonicalize + is_resolved_path_allowed pairing that all sibling tools already had. The approach is correct: rather than refactoring policy.rs (attempted and reverted in earlier commits), the fix adds the missing checks to the single outlier tool. The test is well-constructed with a real PNG payload and proper cleanup.

Per-file Analysis
image_info.rs — Security fix
The canonicalize block (new lines 172–194) follows the same pattern as file_read.rs and file_write.rs:
tokio::fs::canonicalize(path)resolves symlinksis_resolved_path_allowed(&resolved_path)checks the canonical path against workspace boundary- Error messages match sibling format
- Subsequent
metadata()andread()calls correctly use&resolved_pathinstead of the rawpath
The comment block explaining the context (lines 172–178) is thorough and helpful for future maintainers.
image_info.rs — Test
The image_info_blocks_symlink_escape test is well-structured:
- Creates a real (minimal) PNG outside the workspace to simulate the actual exfiltration vector
- Creates a symlink inside the workspace pointing to it
- Configures
SecurityPolicywithworkspace_only: falseto isolate the test to the resolved-path check - Asserts both
is_errorand the specific error message - Properly cleans up temp directories
Findings
CodeRabbit already flagged the workspace-join concern (canonicalizing raw path vs workspace_dir.join(path)) and the logging suggestion. I won't repeat those.
One independent observation:
[minor] The error message "Resolved path escapes workspace: {resolved_path.display()}" reveals the full resolved target of the symlink to the caller — e.g., if a symlink points to /etc/shadow, the error discloses that path. This is an information leak to the agent/user. However, all sibling tools (file_read.rs, file_write.rs) use the identical pattern, so this is consistent with the codebase and not a regression. Worth considering as a follow-up across all filesystem tools if the threat model evolves.
No critical or major issues found independently. Clean from my review.
