| @luvs01 identified `FAILED_EXEC_OUTPUT_REGEX` in `src/adapters/exec-tool-result-normalize.ts` as a ReDoS risk and replaced it with a linear line scan in #2938. The diagnosis is correct: the pattern places `\n*` and `\s*` runs adjacent over the same span, so a long whitespace run followed by one non-matching character forces the engine to retry prefixes. Measured on this machine, `"Script failed" + " ".repeat(60_000) + "\\nY"` takes **1224 ms** through the regex. |

Remove the unshipped ReDoS write-up from the public devlog
This tracked planning note publishes the exact vulnerable expression, attack shape, and measured reproduction while the fix is still under review and therefore unshipped. Move this material to .tmp/ or another scratch directory and publish only the shipped outcome; repository policy explicitly prohibits storing unreleased security findings and reproduction steps for unfixed defects in tracked directories.

리뷰 · 우선순위 69 / 80이 PR은 지금 지금 HEAD 가 하고 있는 일의 한가운데는 아니다. 최근 끝은 Copilot 비전, Grok 상속, Ollama 네이티브, Codex 401·권한·쿼터 쪽이다. 그래도 같은 Cursor tool-result 길을 #2900/#2903/#2910/#2936 이 이미 호출 예산과 call-id 와 순서로 잠가 두었다. 그 길이 받는 글을 나누는 곳이 바로 이 두 어댑터 파일이다. 여기를 잘못 나누면 실패한 칸이 빈 성공으로 보이거나, 반대로 실제 출력이 실패 안내문으로 바뀐다. 쉽게 말하면 이렇다. 코드 모드 exec 칸이 실패하고 출력이 비면, 도구 결과는 고치는 방법은 왜 열린 #2938 을 그대로 못 넣었는가. 진단과 앞으로 가는 스캔 생각은 @luvs01 의 #2938 것이다. 이 PR 본문도 그렇게 적었다. 다만 그 스캔은 옛 정규식과 여섯 입력에서 어긋났고, 방향이 반대라 "더 엄격한가 느슨한가" 로는 안 보인다. 세 개는 의도한 행동 변화는 하나다. 옛 정규식은 빈 줄 구분자를 테스트는 라인 20-21 - 메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점

…ktracking The previous classifier placed two adjacent unbounded whitespace runs over the same span, so a long whitespace run followed by one non-matching character forced the engine to retry prefixes. Replaced with a single forward scan. Every loop advances an index monotonically, the newline searches cover disjoint forward spans, and the token checks are fixed-length, so no path retries a prefix. Two boundaries are load-bearing and both were divergences in an earlier attempt at this rewrite: whitespace after Output: may precede the marker, so an indented <empty> still classifies; and only whitespace may follow it, so a duplicate <empty> still does not. That second one matters most -- classifying it would replace a real payload with the failed-wrapper guidance, turning a normalization into data loss. One intended behaviour change: CRLF blank separators now count. The old pattern matched only \n, so a Windows-produced failed wrapper never classified and fell through to the empty-SUCCESS message, telling the model nothing had gone wrong when the cell had failed. Differential comparison over 63 shapes locally and an independent 662-shape pairwise corpus found no disagreement outside that CRLF blank-separator class. Diagnosis and the linear-scan approach are @luvs01's from #2938; that PR could not land as written because of the six divergences, which I posted there with the exact inputs. The bounded-work test measures process.cpuUsage() rather than elapsed wall time: performance.now() counts OS descheduling, VM pauses and GC, so a loaded CI runner can blow a wall-clock budget while the code under test did nothing wrong. Reverting to the previous classifier spends 1230ms CPU against a 250ms bound. Four mutations proven red at the intended test each: whitespace restricted to CR/LF, accepting a second marker, removing CRLF handling, and reverting the classifier.

Merging on the operator's standing admin authorization. Recording the reasoning rather than leaving it implicit, because this one touches a defect class where "green CI" was demonstrably not sufficient — the first head of this PR was fully green while carrying a policy violation. What the evidence actually covers on
Both review findings that mattered are fixed: the pre-disclosure note is out of tracked This is not a credential or auth path, so @luvs01's #2938 stays open for them to respond to; the offer to merge their branch instead still stands, and if they take it I will revert this in favour of theirs. |
Summary
Replaces the backtracking failed-wrapper classifier in
src/adapters/exec-tool-result-normalize.tswith a forward scan. The diagnosis and the linear-scan approach are @luvs01's from #2938 — this lands the same idea with the behavioural divergences fixed. #2938 can close in favour of this, or they can push these two boundaries onto their branch and I will merge theirs instead.Why #2938 could not land as written. Its scan diverges from the previous classifier on six inputs, in opposite directions, so "is it stricter or looser" does not surface them. Three previously-classifying shapes stopped classifying, and three previously-rejected ones started. The second group is the damaging one: classifying a duplicate-marker wrapper erases a real payload, replacing it with the failed-wrapper guidance. A normalization becoming data loss is worse than the defect it was fixing. Exact inputs are on #2938.
This implementation keeps both boundaries explicit. Whitespace after
Output:may precede the marker, so an indented<empty>still classifies; only whitespace may follow it, so a duplicate<empty>still does not.Linearity is structural, not asserted: every loop advances an index monotonically, the newline searches cover disjoint forward spans, every token check is fixed-length. No regex, no recursion, no path that retries a prefix.

Three review findings, all correct:
A tracked planning note under
devlog/_plan/has been removed — that was a policy violation on my part.AGENTS.mdrequires reproduction detail for an unshipped defect to stay in scratch space, and states plainly that it binds maintainers exactly as it binds contributors. I wrote the note anyway, in a public directory, before the fix had shipped. The notes are now in gitignored.tmp/. The reviewer's point that removing the tip does not undo the disclosure already made by this PR is correct; what it does prevent is the reproduction persisting ondev. The source comment that ships with the fix stays, since the diff itself reveals the weakness — that is the testAGENTS.mdsets.The timing assertion now measures CPU time.
performance.now()counts OS descheduling, VM pauses and GC, so a loaded runner could fail it while the code under test did nothing wrong.process.cpuUsage()counts only work this process performed. The bound is a tripwire three orders of magnitude above the scan's real cost, not a performance target — wide enough that only a return to super-linear work crosses it. Reverting the classifier spends 1230 ms CPU against 250 ms, so there is ~5x separation without depending on wall-clock.A stale comment claiming Cursor keeps its own regex was corrected; Cursor now calls the shared predicate.
On the removed export: repository-wide search found no remaining reference to the old regex constant, and it was never part of the package API —
package.jsonexports only., andsrc/index.tsnever re-exported it. Keeping a vulnerable primitive alive for unsupported deep imports would defeat the fix.Not verified: the CPU bound is a threshold, not a proof of asymptotic complexity; the linearity argument is structural. I also have no evidence of exploitation in practice — the wrapper text is produced by our own exec path, so reachability depends on a tool result a model can influence.
