fix(scripts): pin curl protocol in release-pin update scripts - #9984
Conversation
scripts/update-docker-pin.sh and scripts/update-hermes-agent.sh fetch data over curl -fsSL/-fsSIL (both follow redirects) without pinning the transfer protocol, then write a value derived from that fetch directly as the new trusted pin, with no independent corroboration: - update-docker-pin.sh writes the fetched Docker-Content-Digest straight into Dockerfile's node:22-trixie-slim pin. - update-hermes-agent.sh's gh_api() sends an Authorization: Bearer GITHUB_TOKEN header on a request that follows redirects without --proto-redir '=https'; curl only strips Authorization on a cross-host redirect, so a same-host HTTPS->HTTP downgrade would still carry the token in plaintext. Its tarball fetch also computes sha256sum of the downloaded bytes and writes that directly as HERMES_TARBALL_SHA256. A protocol-downgrade redirect during a maintainer's pin-update run therefore has a path to poisoning the value everyone downstream trusts, and to leaking GITHUB_TOKEN. Add --proto '=https' --proto-redir '=https' to all four curl calls, the same hardening already applied in NVIDIA#9703, NVIDIA#9861, and NVIDIA#9977, so each fetch fails closed on a downgrade redirect. Added behavioral coverage: a fixture run of update-docker-pin.sh with a stubbed curl asserts every captured invocation carries both proto flags, and the existing full-fixture update-hermes-agent.sh --rebuild test (which already exercises the tarball curl call end to end) gets the same assertion added to its existing run rather than a new test.

Tests record curl arguments and verify the restrictions for Docker pin checks and Hermes updates. ChangesHTTPS protocol pinning
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The scripts now require HTTPS for pin-update requests, reducing downgrade and credential-leak exposure. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness that the Hermes-agent test should verify timeout and unsuccessful-exit handling so regressions cannot pass silently.

PR review advisor PRA-1 (blocking): the --rebuild fixture test passes --tag explicitly, so gh_api() (the call that can carry an Authorization: Bearer GITHUB_TOKEN header) was never exercised by the new curl-proto-pin assertion, which only covered the archive-download call. Add a focused --check-mode test that omits --tag so the script resolves the target release through gh_api()'s GET .../releases/latest request, and assert the logged curl invocation carries --proto '=https' --proto-redir '=https'. Verified the new assertion fails without the scripts/update-hermes-agent.sh fix (reverted locally, reran, saw the expected failure, restored the fix).

In `@test/update-hermes-agent-script.test.ts`:
- Around line 163-165: Update the test setup around gh_api() and the fake curl
script to prevent real bearer tokens from reaching curlLog: override
GITHUB_TOKEN with an explicit dummy value, redact authorization header values
before the fake curl appends arguments, and wrap test resource creation and
assertions in a finally block that always removes the log and temporary files.
- Around line 186-191: Update the curl validation in the test around
curlCallCount and pinnedCallCount to split curlArgv into individual invocations
and assert that every call contains both --proto =https and --proto-redir
=https, removing the aggregate substring-count check while preserving the
existing non-empty and GitHub URL assertions.
- Around line 172-182: Update the latest-release test around the spawnSync
invocation to assert run.error is absent and validate the expected run.status
for the --check stale-repository fixture before reading curlLog. Preserve the
existing curlLog assertions after confirming the script outcome.

Three findings on the new gh_api() latest-release test: - Keep bearer tokens out of the test log: the env spread could pass a real GITHUB_TOKEN from the host through to gh_api(), and the fake curl logged it verbatim. Set an explicit dummy token so the auth path is still exercised, have the fake curl redact the Authorization value before writing it to disk, and move cleanup into a finally block so a failed assertion can't leave the log file behind. - Assert the script outcome before reading the log: --check exits 0 or 1 depending on pin drift; assert run.status is one of those and that stdout matches the OK:/STALE: line instead of ignoring it. - Validate each curl invocation independently: replace the aggregate substring-count comparison with a per-call check so one covered and one uncovered invocation can't offset each other in the count.

Reviewed latest PR commit 9701f67. Every changed release-pin curl invocation now restricts protocol negotiation to HTTPS and the regression tests cover the affected scripts. I found no blocking defect.
