Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to febb9

Layer inputs can expose files outside the configured base or produce inconsistent indexes and metadata. These correctness and security defects should be fixed before merge.

Confidence Score: 0/5

The PR is not safe to merge until snapshot path containment, malformed-file handling, layout validation, and tombstone metadata restoration are corrected.

Layer inputs can escape the configured root during content reads, malformed snapshots can trigger dangerous allocation behavior on supported 32-bit targets or violate lookup ordering assumptions, and revived entries retain stale metadata; the explicit comment-length requirement is also unmet.

Files Needing Attention: crates/fff-core/src/index/snapshot.rs, crates/fff-core/src/file_picker/layer_ops.rs, crates/fff-c/src/layers.rs, packages/fff-node/src/ffi.ts, packages/fff-bun/src/ffi.ts

Security Review

Two security issues were identified: layer paths containing parent-directory components can escape the configured root during content reads, and malformed snapshot header counts can overflow allocation-size calculations on supported 32-bit targets.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
crates/fff-core/src/index/snapshot.rs Adds the persistent layer format and path normalization, with missing traversal/layout validation and an unsafe 32-bit allocation calculation.
crates/fff-core/src/file_picker/layer_ops.rs Implements layer creation, compaction, import, export, and entry insertion; tombstone revival retains stale metadata.
crates/fff-core/src/index/layers.rs Defines bounded layer-stack ownership, arena resolution, ranges, sealing, and compaction metadata.
crates/fff-core/src/file_picker.rs Integrates layered arenas and lookup ranges throughout scanning, watcher updates, fuzzy search, and grep.
crates/fff-c/src/layers.rs Adds the C layer API and batch parser; record-count validation is missing and several comments violate repository guidance.
packages/fff-node/src/ffi.ts Adds Node FFI calls and newline-delimited batch encoding that does not reject embedded delimiters.
packages/fff-bun/src/ffi.ts Adds Bun FFI definitions and the same ambiguous newline-delimited layer batch encoding.
crates/fff-core/tests/index_layer_snapshots.rs Covers normal layer persistence and restoration but not traversal paths, false layout tags, allocation overflow, or metadata-changing revival.

P1 security Paths Can Escape Root

normalize_relative_path accepts .. components, and snapshot deserialization does not perform equivalent path validation. A caller can add or load a path such as ../outside.txt; grep and content indexing then resolve it relative to the configured root and can read a file outside that root. Reject parent-directory components during normalization and validate every deserialized path before constructing the snapshot.

How this was verified: Stored layer paths are passed directly to root-relative openat or concatenated with the base path without a containment check.

P1 Layout Tag Is Trusted

The loader trusts the serialized SnapshotLayout tag without checking that files and directories satisfy its ordering and partition rules. A malformed or externally generated file marked Sorted or BasePartitioned is installed without the required sort. Exact-path lookups then binary-search unordered ranges and can report that indexed files do not exist. Validate the advertised layout or restore the required ordering when loading.

P1 security Header Count Can Overflow

On supported 32-bit targets, the attacker-controlled chunk_count * SIMD_CHUNK_BYTES calculation can overflow before Cursor::take checks the input length. A tiny malformed layer file can therefore bypass the truncation check and reach Vec::with_capacity(chunk_count), potentially aborting the process through a multi-gigabyte allocation. Use checked multiplication and bound the allocation by the bytes actually remaining.

How this was verified: The untrusted 32-bit header count is multiplied before bounds validation and is subsequently used directly as the arena allocation capacity.

P1 Revival Keeps Stale Metadata

Re-adding a tombstoned path ignores the new IndexEntry metadata because the existing-path branch only clears the deletion flag and immediately continues. If a caller removes a layered entry and later adds the same path with a new size, modification time, or binary classification, the revived result retains stale attributes and can be filtered or indexed incorrectly. Apply the incoming metadata when revival succeeds.

P2 Newlines Corrupt Layer Batches

The native parser does not verify that the number of newline-delimited records equals count. Because both JavaScript wrappers join caller-provided paths without rejecting embedded newlines, one logical entry can become multiple indexed paths, shift metadata onto the wrong records, and make the returned added count exceed the input length. Reject embedded delimiters or validate the parsed record count before reading positional metadata.

P2 Comments Exceed Required Length

This new API comment spans six lines, violating the repository directive that comments must not exceed two lines unless explicitly requested. The same pattern appears on fff_layer_list, fff_layer_add_paths, fff_layer_build, and fff_base_load. Condense these comments or move the extended details to external documentation. This repository requirement must be satisfied before merging.

In `@crates/fff-core/src/index/snapshot.rs`:
- Around line 133-136: Update the sorting step using dir_name_key before
deduplication so duplicate paths have deterministic metadata: replace
par_sort_unstable_by with a stable sort, or add an explicit tie-breaker and
preserve a documented first-wins or last-wins policy for dedup_by.
- Around line 313-317: Update the index serialization in the snapshot-writing
flow around the index_bytes construction to encode every u32 in indices
explicitly as little-endian before write_all, matching the little-endian parsing
used by from_bytes; avoid writing the native-endian memory representation while
preserving the existing written byte count.
- Around line 513-519: Update normalize_relative_path to reject any path
containing a Component::ParentDir component before storing it, including
traversal inputs such as ../secret and dir/../../secret; preserve valid relative
paths and add tests covering both rejected cases.

In `@crates/fff-core/src/scan.rs`:
- Around line 184-189: Update the snapshot restoration flow around
FileSync::from_snapshot so the restored FileSync retains or rebuilds the
repository ignore rules before watcher processing resumes; ensure
commit_new_sync and subsequent loadBase handling still apply .ignore paths
through IgnoreFilter rather than relying only on the non-code-directory
heuristic.

In `@crates/fff-core/src/shared.rs`:
- Around line 223-225: Update ScanJob::new_rescan to atomically reserve the scan
while holding the picker lock, before returning a job to the caller; ensure
concurrent import_base calls cannot both pass the scanning check, and preserve
the existing spawn flow for the successfully reserved job.

In `@crates/fff-core/src/types.rs`:
- Around line 646-651: The set_overflow method must not remap an existing
overlay item's layer to SESSION_LAYER without relocating its path indices. Make
set_overflow preserve the item's current layer or otherwise update the
associated path arena consistently, including for layer 2–4 FileItems returned
by FilePicker::files_in_layer; remove the method only if this public API is
intentionally being changed.

In `@crates/fff-core/tests/index_layer_snapshots.rs`:
- Line 186: Update the three handle_create_or_modify calls in the test to handle
their Result with an appropriate expect message, matching the existing
index_layers test pattern and preventing indexing failures from being ignored.

In `@packages/fff-bun/examples/layer-bench.ts`:
- Line 17: Format the imports in layer-bench.ts using the repository’s required
oxfmt formatter, preserving the existing import symbols and behavior.
- Line 107: Update the fileSearch invocation in the benchmark to pass pageSize:
50 instead of maxResults, matching the option consumed by FileFinder.fileSearch
and preserving the intended 50-result page.
- Line 165: Update the error handling around the FileFinder.create result to
pass finder.error directly to Error, since the error branch contains a string
rather than an Error object. Preserve the existing success path and propagate
the original ffiCreate loader error unchanged.

In `@packages/fff-bun/README.md`:
- Line 164: Update the README example around createLayer and finder.saveLayer to
check layer.ok before accessing layer.value, handling the unsuccessful result
via its error field and only saving the layer value in the successful branch.

In `@packages/fff-bun/src/ffi.ts`:
- Line 1759: Validate each path in the batch before newline-delimited encoding,
and return an error result when any path contains \n; update
packages/fff-bun/src/ffi.ts at lines 1759-1759 and packages/fff-node/src/ffi.ts
at lines 1969-1969 with the same behavior before joining/encoding lines. Use the
existing batch-building flow and error-result convention.

In `@packages/fff-bun/test/layers.test.ts`:
- Line 14: Update all three fff_wait_for_scan callers, including
finder.waitForScanBlocking, to require both a successful result and value ===
true before continuing; handle timeout or unsuccessful results without querying
the partial index.

In `@packages/fff-node/test/layers.mjs`:
- Line 14: Update the scan waits around waitForScanBlocking so each result
asserts both ok and value === true, including the initial wait after
created.value and the subsequent wait after open(). Ensure test execution fails
when scanning times out or does not complete before searches proceed.

Make duplicate metadata deterministic.

par_sort_unstable_by can reorder equal paths. The following dedup_by then keeps arbitrary metadata when duplicate entries have different size, modified, or binary values.

Use a stable sort or define an explicit first-wins or last-wins policy.

Path Traversal

Reachability: External
Exploitability: Moderate
CWE: CWE-22 — Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Reject Component::ParentDir in normalize_relative_path. IndexEntry::relative_path accepts ../secret. FileItem::absolute_path joins it with base_path, and content loading opens the resulting path. A layer entry can therefore read outside the picker base. Reject Component::ParentDir before storing the path. Add tests for ../secret and dir/../../secret.

Preserve ignore rules during snapshot restoration.

FileSync::from_snapshot sets ignore_rules to None. commit_new_sync only adopts explicit overlays. With no repository, IgnoreFilter then uses only the non-code-directory heuristic, so .ignore paths can reach handle_create_or_modify after loadBase.

Preserve the rules or rebuild them before watcher processing resumes.

Reserve the scan before releasing the picker lock.

ScanJob::new_rescan only checks scanning and then releases the lock. Two concurrent import_base calls can both pass this check before either spawn call sets scanning. Both jobs can then call commit_new_sync, which replaces the current snapshot without a generation check. One snapshot can overwrite the other nondeterministically.

Reserve the scan atomically in new_rescan, or serialize the check through spawn.

Pass the error string directly.

FileFinder.create returns the shared Result<FileFinder>. Its error branch stores error as a string and propagates the ffiCreate result unchanged. finder.error.message does not type-check and loses the loader error.

Proposed fix
-  if (!finder.ok) throw new Error(finder.error.message);
+  if (!finder.ok) throw new Error(finder.error);

Check layer.ok before reading layer.value.

createLayer returns the strict discriminated type { ok: true; value: number } | { ok: false; error: string }. TypeScript rejects layer.value until layer.ok narrows the union. The README is not included in the package typecheck, so this error is not caught automatically.

 const layer = finder.createLayer("generated");
+if (!layer.ok) throw new Error(layer.error);
 finder.addPaths(["build/out/a.js", { path: "build/out/b.js", size: 1024, modified: 1_700_000_000 }]);

Unvalidated \n in path corrupts the layer batch in both encoders. The wire format is newline-delimited and metadata is matched by split position on the Rust side (entries_from_raw in crates/fff-c/src/layers.rs). One entry with an embedded newline becomes two native paths and shifts size/modified for every entry after it.

Require successful scan completion before continuing.

fff_wait_for_scan returns 1 only when scanning completes and 0 on timeout. Bun maps 0 to { ok: true, value: false }. The three callers ignore value, so they can query a partial index.

Check both ok and value at all three sites. The cited wrappers do not guarantee completion.

Assert scan completion.

A timeout returns { ok: true, value: false }. open() ignores this value, and the second wait checks only ok. loadBase starts the scan in the background, so later searches can use an incomplete index. Assert that both waits return value === true.
