 # Changelog
 
+## 0.11.0
+
+### Security hardening — audit findings fixed, safe-by-default
+
+A full security audit of the library + CLI daemon + MCP server. Eight
+findings were reproduced with live PoCs, fixed, and locked in with 14 new
+regression tests (143 → 157 passing). Two new opt-in controls; two new
+defaults that change behavior (see **Breaking** below).
+
+- **Daemon authentication (was: unauthenticated `eval` over loopback).**
+  The CLI daemon's HTTP server bound to `127.0.0.1` but had no auth — and
+  loopback is shared across local users, so any local process could POST
+  `/command` (including `eval` = arbitrary JS in the authenticated browser).
+  Now every daemon mints a 32-byte random token at startup, written into
+  `session.json` (mode `0600`) and required on `/command` via the
+  `x-barebrowse-token` header (constant-time compare). `session-client.js`
+  reads and sends it transparently — no caller change. `GET /status` stays
+  open as a liveness ping returning only `{ ok, pid }`.
+- **Artifact permissions.** The session dir is now created `0700` and all
+  daemon artifacts (`session.json`, snapshots, screenshots, PDFs, console /
+  network / dialog logs) plus `page.saveState()` output are written `0600`.
+  `saveState` holds cookies + localStorage (session tokens), so this stops a
+  multi-user host from reading another user's credentials off disk.
+- **Navigation scheme guard (new module `src/url-guard.js`).** `goto()` /
+  `browse()` now reject local-resource and browser-internal schemes
+  (`file:`, `view-source:`, `chrome:`, `chrome-extension:`, `filesystem:`,
+  `devtools:`, …) by default — closing a confirmed local-file-read /
+  directory-listing vector for a prompt-injected agent. `http`/`https`/
+  `data`/`blob`/`about` stay allowed (`data:` is opaque-origin and the
+  test-fixture mechanism — not a read/SSRF vector). Override with
+  `{ allowLocalUrls: true }`.
+- **SSRF guard (opt-in `blockPrivateNetwork`).** When set, `goto()`/
+  `browse()` refuse loopback / RFC-1918 / link-local / cloud-metadata
+  (`169.254.169.254`) / `*.internal` hosts. Off by default so localhost
+  dev-server browsing keeps working. Exposed as `--block-private-network`.
+- **Upload sandbox (opt-in `uploadDir`).** `upload()` confirmed it would
+  attach any absolute path to a file input (exfil vector under prompt
+  injection). When `uploadDir` is set, every path must resolve (symlinks
+  included, via `realpath`) inside it. Default unrestricted — nothing breaks
+  unless you opt in. Exposed as `--upload-dir=DIR`. Both new opts pass
+  through `connect()` → MCP / bareagent / CLI daemon uniformly.
+- **Cookie injection scoped precisely (was: over-broad substring match).**
+  `authenticate()` matched `host_key LIKE '%domain%'`, so browsing
+  `apple.com` injected cookies for `apple.com.evil.org` / `notapple.com`,
+  and `mybank.co.uk` (→ `co.uk`) pulled every `*.co.uk` cookie. The LIKE
+  query is now only a coarse pre-filter; a precise RFC-6265
+  `cookieDomainMatch()` decides what actually gets injected (parent-domain
+  cookies like `.google.com` still apply to `mail.google.com`).
+- **Hardening:** browser discovery uses `execFileSync('which', [name])`
+  (no shell) instead of an interpolated `execSync` string; the cleanup
+  busy-wait drops a `sleep` subprocess for `Atomics.wait`. Added
+  `.gitignore` (was missing — `.barebrowse/` state/snapshots could be
+  accidentally committed). Pinned `wearehere` to exact `1.0.0`.
+- **Tests:** 157 total (14 new) — `test/unit/url-guard.test.js` (19
+  assertions over scheme/private-host policy), `cookieDomainMatch` cases in
+  `test/unit/auth.test.js`, daemon token + `0600` perms in
+  `test/integration/cli.test.js`.
+
+**Breaking:** (1) `file:`/`chrome:`/etc. navigation now throws by default —
+pass `allowLocalUrls: true` to restore. (2) The CLI daemon now requires the
+token; this is transparent via the bundled `session-client`, but any
+third-party client hitting the daemon's HTTP API directly must send
+`x-barebrowse-token` from `session.json`.
+
+## 0.10.1
+
+### Blocklist long-tail additions + legacy-Chrome warn + switchTab attach-mode test
+
+Carry-forward items from the v0.10.0 backlog. All additive, no behavior
+change on supported Chrome.
+
+- **8 new patterns in `src/blocklist.js`** (120 → 128, still in the
+  curated 80–200 band):
+  - Mobile-measurement-on-web cluster (increasingly served from web
+    pages, not just SDKs): `*.appsflyer.com`, `*.branch.io`,
+    `*.adjust.com`.
+  - Privacy-friendly analytics that still tracks from an agent POV:
+    `static.cloudflareinsights.com` (Cloudflare Web Analytics),
+    `*.matomo.cloud` (Matomo Cloud's hosted tier).
+  - Broader Outbrain coverage: `amplify.outbrain.com`,
+    `log.outbrain.com` (in addition to the existing
+    `widgets.outbrain.com` and `*.outbrain.com/utils/*`).
+  - Broader PostHog: `*.posthog.com/static/array.js*` (the snippet
+    loader, in addition to the existing `/e/` and `/decide/` endpoints).
+- **One-time `console.warn` when `Network.setBlockedURLs` rejects.**
+  Legacy Chromium builds lacking the method previously failed silently
+  inside `applyBlocklist`; now a single warn per process surfaces the
+  reason so callers don't wonder why blocking isn't engaging. Stays
+  silent on supported Chrome (success path), stays silent when
+  `blockAds: false` opts out entirely. Module-scoped flag —
+  intentionally not per-session, since the failure mode is the
+  browser, not the session.
+- **`switchTab()` + `blockAds:true` attach-mode integration test.**
+  The v0.10.0 JSDoc claimed blocklist follows `switchTab()` in attach
+  mode but had no automated guard. New test in
+  `test/integration/blocklist.test.js` launches a real browser, opens
+  a second tab via raw CDP (bypassing barebrowse so the tab simulates
+  one the user already had open), attaches with explicit
+  `blockAds: true` + `blockUrls: [pattern]`, switches into that tab,
+  and asserts the tracker server gets zero hits and the tracker script
+  never executed. Locks in the post-switch `applyBlocklist` call site
+  that was added in v0.10.0.
+- **Tests:** 143 total (5 new). 4 new unit tests in
+  `test/unit/blocklist.test.js` (long-tail coverage drift guard +
+  3-subtest warn-once suite covering rejection, success path, and
+  opted-out paths); 1 new integration test as above.

+## Safe by default (v0.11.0)
+
+barebrowse hands an autonomous — and therefore prompt-injectable — agent an *authenticated* browser, so the defaults are calibrated for that threat:
+
+- **Local-resource schemes blocked.** `file:`, `view-source:`, `chrome:`, etc. are rejected by default (a confirmed local-file-read vector); `http`/`https`/`data` stay allowed. Override with `allowLocalUrls: true`.
+- **Cookie injection scoped** to a precise RFC-6265 domain match — browsing one site can't pull look-alike or unrelated cookies into the session.
+- **CLI daemon authenticated** with a per-session token (loopback alone isn't an authorization boundary); snapshots and saved state are written owner-only (`0600`).
+- **Opt-in hardening** for stricter deployments: `blockPrivateNetwork` (SSRF guard for loopback/RFC-1918/cloud-metadata) and `uploadDir` (confine `upload()` to one directory). Both available on the library, MCP, bareagent, and CLI (`--block-private-network`, `--upload-dir`).
+
+See `barebrowse.context.md` and the PRD's "Security Model & Safe Defaults" for the full rationale.
+
 ## What the agent sees
 
 Raw ARIA output from a page is noisy -- decorative wrappers, hidden elements, structural junk. The pruning pipeline (ported from [mcprune](https://github.com/hamr0/mcprune)) strips it down to what matters.

Hostname-based — does not catch DNS names that resolve to private IPs.
+- `uploadDir: '/abs/dir'` — (v0.11.0) Default unset (no restriction). When set, `upload()` rejects any file that does not resolve (symlinks included, via `realpath`) inside this directory — sandboxes the agent's file-upload capability.

The bundled `session-client` sends it automatically — no change for CLI users. A third-party client hitting the daemon HTTP API directly must read the token from `session.json` and send it. `GET /status` stays open (liveness only). The session dir is `0700`; snapshots, `saveState`, and logs are written `0600`.
