🛡️ Sentinel: [CRITICAL] Fix SSRF in web_fetch#559
Conversation
🚨 Severity: CRITICAL 💡 Vulnerability: The `handle_web_fetch` in `system_tools_plugin.rs` allowed arbitrary Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) because it directly executed HTTP GET requests using `reqwest::blocking::get` without validating the host's IP address. 🎯 Impact: Attackers could access internal services (e.g., localhost, 127.0.0.1, internal subnets) or cloud metadata endpoints (e.g., 169.254.169.254) bypassing external firewalls. 🔧 Fix: Extracted manual IP filtering rules (`is_allowed_ip`) to block loopback, private, unspecified, multicast, and link-local addresses. Rewrote the handler to use `fetch_url_safe` which manually resolves DNS, validates all returned IPs, pins the valid IP using `.resolve()` to prevent TOCTOU DNS rebinding, and manually validates location headers across a maximum of 5 redirects. ✅ Verification: Ran `cargo test -p mill-plugin-system`, `cargo clippy`, and `cargo fmt`.

Preserve all resolved addresses when pinning DNS
Selecting only the first resolved address (valid_ip) and pinning the client to it can make web_fetch fail for otherwise valid hosts that publish both AAAA and A records. In IPv4-only or partially IPv6-broken environments, if the first address is unreachable (often IPv6), the request fails even though another validated address would succeed. This is a regression from normal resolver behavior (which can try multiple addresses); use all validated addresses (e.g., resolve_to_addrs) or retry across them before failing.
