2
+ * OpenShell content-inspection filter — ATR reference binding for NVIDIA OpenShell.
3
+ *
4
+ * Implements the external content-filter contract proposed in
5
+ * NVIDIA/OpenShell#1272 ("L7 content inspection hooks — scriptable
6
+ * request/response filtering"): the OpenShell *supervisor* (outside the agent
7
+ * sandbox) runs this as a script against L7 request/response bodies. The body
8
+ * arrives on stdin; the script signals the verdict via exit code:
9
+ *
10
+ * exit 0 -> allow (no rule at/above the deny threshold matched)
11
+ * exit 1 -> deny (the verdict JSON, with reasons, is written to stdout)
12
+ * exit 2 -> internal error (supervisor applies its on_timeout/on_error policy)
13
+ *
14
+ * Two run modes:
15
+ * one-shot (default): read the whole body from stdin, evaluate, exit.
16
+ * Matches the #1272 contract literally. Cold-starts the engine per call.
17
+ * serve (--serve): read NDJSON requests line-by-line from stdin and write
18
+ * one NDJSON verdict per line. Loads the rule set ONCE, so per-request
19
+ * latency is just regex evaluation (sub-ms). Production path for a
20
+ * persistent guard service (cf. NVIDIA/OpenShell#1733 RFC 0005). A bad
21
+ * line (or an engine error) yields a per-line error verdict and the
22
+ * stream continues — one malformed body cannot take the inspector offline.
23
+ *
24
+ * Output is the canonical ATR detection event (atr.* fields per the engine
25
+ * INTERFACE-CONTRACT). Matched raw values are redacted by default
26
+ * (ATR_FORENSIC_MODE=1 to retain), satisfying the "audit evidence without
27
+ * storing raw sensitive values" requirement of the egress-middleware RFC (#1733).
28
+ *
29
+ * Environment (aligned with engines/{go,typescript}/INTERFACE-CONTRACT.md):
30
+ * ATR_RULES_DIR | ATR_CORPUS_PATH rule directory (default: bundled rules)
31
+ * ATR_MIN_SEVERITY deny at or above this severity (default high)
32
+ * ATR_FORENSIC_MODE "1"/"true" to retain raw matched values
33
+ * ATR_MAX_BODY_BYTES stdin hard cap (default 524288)
34
+ *
35
+ * Adds NO new dependency: reuses the canonical ATREngine. It does not decide
36
+ * routing (that is OpenShell's Privacy Router, #1043) — it only inspects content
37
+ * and returns allow/deny, per the #1272 separation of concerns.

+ id: ATR-2026-02105

+ status: experimental
5
+ description: >
6
+ Detects a JSON/object payload or code snippet that reaches
7
+ Object.prototype through the `constructor.prototype.<key>` traversal path
8
+ rather than the literal `__proto__` key -- the classic incomplete guard
9
+ bypass, since many sanitizers/anonymizers only special-case `__proto__`
10
+ and let any other key (including "constructor") assign through
11
+ unmodified. Mined from GHSA-fw9q-39r9-c252 (the LangSmith JS/TS SDK's
12
+ vendored lodash `set()` utility guards only the literal `__proto__` key
13
+ in `baseAssignValue()`; a nested object with a key shaped like
14
+ "constructor.prototype.isAdmin" traverses obj.constructor -> Object ->
15
+ Object.prototype and writes through, polluting every object in the
16
+ process even though the anonymizer's own deep-clone step was supposed to
17
+ contain the mutation). Generalized beyond LangSmith's specific
18
+ anonymizer entry point to any JSON/object-processing tool argument or
19
+ code payload using this same traversal path. Verified against the
20
+ current engine: a literal `__proto__` payload is already caught by the
21
+ existing generic dunder-token rule (ATR-2026-00062), but a
22
+ `constructor.prototype`-shaped bypass payload -- the exact incomplete-fix
23
+ scenario this CVE demonstrates, and the same blind spot a
24
+ substring/keyword-based filter is inherently prone to -- produces no
25
+ match before this rule.
