The OPENSHELL_CARGO_VERSION build arg contains a git commit hash that
changes on every build (e.g. 0.0.7-dev.11+g085b131ae). Declaring this
ARG near the top of each Dockerfile invalidated every layer below it --
including expensive dependency installs, toolchain setup, and the Rust
dependency pre-build step -- on every single commit.
Move the ARG declaration to just before the RUN that actually uses it so
upstream layers stay cached. This recovers ~5-6 minutes per build on the
gateway image (from ~9m back toward ~2-3m) and similarly improves cluster,
CLI, and Python wheel builds.
Also removes unused OPENSHELL_IMAGE_TAG ARG from cli-macos, python-wheels,
and python-wheels-macos Dockerfiles.
* feat(policy): support host wildcards and multi-port endpoints
Add glob-style host wildcards to endpoints[].host using OPA's
glob.match with "." as delimiter — *.example.com matches a single
DNS label, **.example.com matches across labels. Validation rejects
bare * and requires *. prefix; warns on broad patterns like *.com.
Add repeated uint32 ports field to NetworkEndpoint for multi-port
support. Backwards compatible: existing port scalar is normalized to
ports array. Both the proto-to-JSON and YAML-to-JSON conversion paths
emit a ports array; Rego always references endpoint.ports[_].
Fix OpaEngine::reload() to route through the full preprocessing
pipeline instead of bypassing L7 validation and port normalization.
Closes#359
* fix(policy): reject configs with both port and ports set

Error messages and recovery hints were showing 'openshell gateway destroy <name>'
as a positional argument, but the CLI defines name as a --name flag. This caused
'unexpected argument' errors when users copied the suggested commands.
Closes#362
Split the CONNECT log emission in the proxy so denied connections log
immediately as CONNECT while allowed connections defer logging until
after the L7 config check. When L7 inspection follows, emit CONNECT_L7
instead of CONNECT so log consumers can distinguish standalone L4
policy decisions from tunnel lifecycle events.
The 'Trigger Release Tag workflow' step uses gh workflow run to dispatch
release-tag.yml, which requires the actions:write permission. Without it
the GITHUB_TOKEN gets HTTP 403: Resource not accessible by integration.
Kubernetes 1.35 (k3s v1.35.x) rejects cgroup v1 by default via the
failCgroupV1 kubelet config option. This breaks gateway startup on
distros that still use cgroup v1 (e.g. Rocky Linux 8, CentOS 7/8).
Detect cgroup v1 at container startup by checking for the absence of
/sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.controllers and pass
--kubelet-arg=fail-cgroupv1=false so kubelet warns instead of exiting.
Docker Desktop 29.x defaults to private cgroupns which prevents k3s
kubelet from accessing cgroup v2 controllers (cpu, cpuset, memory,
pids, hugetlb). This causes ContainerManager to fail during startup.
Explicitly set cgroupns_mode to host, which is backwards compatible
with all Docker versions and matches what k3s-in-Docker tooling
(k3d) requires.
* fix(sandbox): prevent overread request smuggling in L7 REST parser
The HTTP/1.1 parser used a 1024-byte read buffer that could capture
bytes from a pipelined second request. Those overflow bytes were
forwarded upstream as body overflow without L7 policy evaluation,
enabling request smuggling that bypasses per-request method/path
enforcement.
Replace multi-byte read with byte-at-a-time read_u8 that stops exactly
at the CRLFCRLF header terminator. Add regression test proving two
pipelined requests are parsed independently.

* fix(server): harden sandbox TLS secret volume permissions to 0400
Kubernetes secret volumes default to 0644, allowing the unprivileged
sandbox user to read the mTLS client private key via the Landlock
baseline /etc read set. A compromised sandbox could use the key to
impersonate the control-plane client.
Set defaultMode to 256 (octal 0400, owner-read only) on both the
default and custom pod template paths. The supervisor reads TLS
materials as root before forking, so this does not affect normal
operation.
Refs: #350
* fix(sandbox): stop using cmdline paths for binary policy matching
/proc/pid/cmdline is fully attacker-controlled (argv[0] can be set to
any string via execve) and had no integrity verification, unlike
exec.path and ancestors which are kernel-managed and get TOFU/SHA256
checks. The Rego policy used cmdline_paths as a grant-access signal,
allowing any sandboxed process to claim the identity of an allowed
binary and bypass network restrictions.
Remove the cmdline exact-match rule and exclude cmdline_paths from the
glob-match rule. Only exec.path and exec.ancestors (from /proc/pid/exe)
are now used for binary identity. cmdline_paths remain in the OPA input
for deny-reason diagnostics only.
Refs: #350
* fix(sandbox): reject symlink and non-dir read_write paths before chown
The supervisor runs as root and calls chown on each read_write path.
Since chown follows symlinks, a malicious container image could place a
symlink (e.g. /sandbox -> /etc/shadow) to trick the supervisor into
transferring ownership of arbitrary files to the sandbox user.
Add symlink_metadata (lstat) check before chown to reject symlinks and
non-directory entries. The TOCTOU window is not exploitable because no
untrusted child process has been forked yet at this point.
Refs: #350
* fix(server): redact provider credentials in gRPC CRUD responses
Provider CRUD RPCs (create, get, list, update) returned full Provider
objects including plaintext credentials (API keys, secrets). Any
authenticated client -- including sandbox workloads running untrusted
code -- could read credentials for all providers.
Add redact_provider_credentials helper that clears the credentials map
before returning. Internal server paths (inference routing, sandbox env
injection) read from the store directly and are unaffected. Update
tests to verify redaction and assert persistence via direct store reads.
Refs: #350
* fix(sandbox): enforce non-root fallback when process user unset
drop_privileges silently returned Ok(()) when both run_as_user and
run_as_group were None, even when running as root. In local/dev mode
policies are loaded from disk without passing through the server-side
ensure_sandbox_process_identity normalization, so child processes could
retain root and all capabilities (SYS_ADMIN, NET_ADMIN).
When running as root with no process identity configured, fall back to
sandbox:sandbox instead of no-oping. Non-root runtimes are unaffected.
Refs: #350
* fix(sandbox): deny forward proxy for L7-configured endpoints
The forward proxy path only performed L4 (endpoint) and allowed_ips
checks. If an endpoint had L7 rules (method/path restrictions), a
sandboxed process could bypass them by using HTTP_PROXY with plain
http:// requests instead of CONNECT tunneling, since L7 inspection
only runs in the CONNECT path.
Add a guard in handle_forward_proxy that queries the endpoint's L7
config and returns 403 if any L7 rules are present, forcing traffic
through the CONNECT path where per-request inspection happens.
Refs: #350
* test(e2e): add regression test for forward proxy L7 bypass
Verifies that the forward proxy path (plain http:// via HTTP_PROXY)
returns 403 for endpoints with L7 rules configured, preventing
sandboxed processes from bypassing per-request method/path enforcement
by avoiding the CONNECT tunnel.
Refs: #350
* fix: update tests for cmdline path and TLS volume changes
Update OPA tests to verify cmdline_paths no longer grant access
(regression tests for the security fix). Fix formatting in TLS
volume test.
Refs: #350
* test(e2e): update provider e2e tests for credential redaction
Provider CRUD gRPC responses no longer include credential values.
Update three e2e tests to assert credentials are empty in responses.
Provider functionality is verified by existing e2e tests that check
env var injection into sandboxes (which read from the store directly).
Refs: #350
* chore: reformat for Rust 1.94 assert! macro style
* fix(sandbox): make drop_privileges tests root-aware for CI
CI runs as root but has no 'sandbox' user. The security fix correctly
errors when running as root with no process identity and no fallback
user available -- this is the intended behavior (refuse to run as root).
Update tests to expect that error in root-without-sandbox-user
environments instead of unconditionally asserting Ok.
Refs: #350
* fix(sandbox): allow non-directory read_write entries like /dev/null
The symlink guard incorrectly rejected all non-directory entries.
Character devices like /dev/null are legitimate read_write paths
used in sandbox policies. Only reject symlinks, which are the
actual attack vector for the chown privilege escalation.
Refs: #350
* feat(sandbox): log connection attempts that bypass proxy path
Add iptables LOG + REJECT rules inside the sandbox network namespace to
detect and diagnose direct connection attempts that bypass the HTTP
CONNECT proxy. This provides two improvements:
1. Fast-fail UX: applications get immediate ECONNREFUSED instead of a
30-second timeout when they bypass the proxy
2. Diagnostics: a /dev/kmsg monitor emits structured BYPASS_DETECT
tracing events with destination, protocol, process identity, and
actionable hints
Both TCP and UDP bypass attempts are covered (UDP catches DNS bypass).
The feature degrades gracefully if iptables or /dev/kmsg are unavailable.
Closes#268
* chore: track .python-version to pin Python 3.13.12 for uv
The sandbox base image runs Python 3.13. A stale venv on 3.12 causes
all exec_python E2E tests to fail because cloudpickle bytecode is not
compatible across minor versions.
* fix(cluster): preserve hostGatewayIP across fast deploys
The fast deploy's helm upgrade was missing the hostGatewayIP value that
the bootstrap entrypoint injects into the HelmChart CR. This caused
host.openshell.internal hostAliases to be lost from the gateway pod
and sandbox pods after any fast deploy, breaking host gateway routing.
Read the IP from the HelmChart CR and pass it through to helm upgrade.
* wip: fix iptables path resolution, use dmesg for kmsg, add CAP_SYSLOG
* fix(sandbox): restore NetworkNamespace Drop impl, remove dead kmsg code
The Drop impl for NetworkNamespace was accidentally deleted during the
bypass detection refactor, which would cause network namespaces and
veth interfaces to leak on every sandbox shutdown.
Also removes dead kmsg volume/mount code (bypass monitor uses dmesg
instead of direct /dev/kmsg access) and removes an accidentally
committed session transcript file.
Closes#273
Verify inference endpoints synchronously on the server during set/update, expose a --no-verify escape hatch in the CLI and Python helper, and return actionable failures when validation does not pass.
The strip_headers list in send_backend_request included default_headers
names (e.g. anthropic-version), which removed the client's value. The
already_sent check then saw the original input still contained the header
and skipped injecting the route default. Neither value reached upstream.
Remove default_headers names from strip_headers so client values pass
through. The existing already_sent guard still injects defaults only when
the client omits them.
* feat(sandbox): inject host gateway hostAliases into sandbox pods
Sandbox pods running in the k3s cluster cannot resolve host.docker.internal
by default, preventing them from reaching services on the Docker host.
Detect the host gateway IP (default route) in the cluster entrypoint,
thread it through the Helm chart to the gateway server, and inject
hostAliases entries (host.docker.internal, host.openshell.internal)
into every sandbox pod spec. The injection is conditional -- when the
IP is empty (non-Docker deployments), no hostAliases are added.
