From 6e681a9c66acaf77da3d60803de3dad9fea0d717 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: agent_coder Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 05:43:46 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] fix(#274): escape page_changed injection surface, drop dead content_hash (review F1-F5) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit F1: escape the collaborative page title before interpolating into (and the pre-existing openedPage attr) — strip <>" and collapse whitespace, so a crafted title can't break out of the attribute into the system prompt (cross-user injection). F2: neutralize / occurrences inside the diff body so a crafted line can't close the block early. F3: remove the dead content_hash column (written every turn, never read) — migration, repo, service hashing + crypto import, db.d.ts, spec asserts. F4: test the best-effort catch branches (detectPageChange / snapshotOpenPage swallow errors and don't break the turn). F5: soften the overstated 'diff cannot smuggle instructions' comment to defense-in-depth framing referencing the F1/F2 mitigations + safety sandwich.
