fix(629): review fixes — tilde fences, an unbounded sha field, and a forgeable comment boundary
Cross-family review of 38a96f47 returned BLOCKED with three findings. All reproduced first:
~~~ fence -> positive fences were stripped for ``` only; markdown also takes ~~~
@ <40hex>f / ZZZ -> positive the sha matched {7,40} with NO right boundary, so an
over-long or malformed token was TRUNCATED into a passing one
\x01BODY-BOUNDARY\x01 -> positive an in-band separator joined comment bodies, so a body
containing that line forged a boundary, reset fence state
mid-comment, and exposed a verdict inside an unclosed fence
Fixes: both fence markers honoured; the hex run matched whole, required to end at a
non-alphanumeric boundary, with its length validated separately so an out-of-range token is
rejected rather than trimmed to fit; and bodies carried OUT-OF-BAND (one JSON-encoded string
per line), which removes the forgery class instead of escaping the sentinel.
The third is the one worth remembering: an in-band delimiter is forgeable by whoever writes the
data, and here that is anyone who can comment on the PR.
Two of these fixes broke previously-green tests, both of which were right to break:
- an over-long token now classifies `no-sha`, not `stale`. The fixture asserting `stale` was 45
hex chars, so it had been exercising the length guard while claiming to test the prefix rule.
Rebuilt as a well-formed 40-char sha that contains the head prefix without starting with it.
- `jq -e` exits 4 when a filter produces NO output, which is the legitimate empty-comment-list
case. Treating it as an error turned "no comments yet" into an input error — and callers fail
closed on those, so a new PR would have read as unclassifiable. Exit 4 is now accepted.
44 classifier tests, 155 total. `~~~` and the boundary fixes are each mutation-verified; the
out-of-band fix has no equivalent mutation (it is structural, not a regex) so its evidence is the
direct reproduction against the previous commit.

from the verdict's **own** `@ <sha>` field, the one immediately following the token, which also
|
||||
makes multi-`@` lines unambiguous.
|
||||
|
||||
A cross-family review of that first fix found **three more**, all reproduced before fixing — worth
|
||||
recording because each is the same fix done half-way:
|
||||
|
||||
- fences were stripped for ` ``` ` only, but markdown also accepts **`~~~`**;
|
||||
- the sha field matched `{7,40}` with **no right boundary**, so an over-long or malformed token was
|
||||
silently *truncated* into a passing one: `@ <40-hex-head>f` and `@ <40-hex-head>ZZZ` both graded as
|
||||
a verdict for head. The hex run is now matched whole, must end at a non-alphanumeric boundary, and
|
||||
its length is validated separately — an out-of-range token is rejected, never trimmed to fit;
|
||||
- comment bodies were joined with a literal `\x01BODY-BOUNDARY\x01` line so fence state could reset
|
||||
per comment. **An in-band delimiter is forgeable by whoever writes the data** — and here that is
|
||||
anyone who can comment on the PR: a body containing that line reset the fence mid-comment and
|
||||
exposed a verdict still inside an unclosed fence. Bodies are now carried out-of-band (one
|
||||
JSON-encoded string per line), which removes the class rather than escaping the sentinel.
|
||||
|
||||
The lesson is about where a grammar lives, not about any one regex: this record described the intended
|
||||
behaviour accurately, the code did something looser, and nothing compared them. The grammar now lives
|
||||
in `scripts/check-review-verdict.sh` — one implementation, called by the hook and by
|
||||
`post-review-verdict.sh`'s cross-check, covered by `scripts/tests/test_check_review_verdict.py`.
|
||||
|
||||
Two of those fixes also broke previously-green tests, which is the useful part: an over-long token
|
||||
became `no-sha` where a fixture expected `stale` (the fixture was 45 hex chars, so it had been
|
||||
testing the length guard while claiming to test the prefix rule), and `jq -e` exits **4** on no
|
||||
output, so an empty comment list started reading as a malformed payload — turning "no comments yet"
|
||||
into an input error on a gate whose callers fail closed.
|
||||
|
||||
The classifications:
|
||||
- a MERGEABLE/APPROVED/LGTM verdict whose `@ <sha>` is the current head → **allow**;
|
||||
- a **negative** verdict (BLOCKED/NOT-MERGEABLE) *on the head* → **deny**, and it *wins over* a positive
