fork_repo built its clone destination with store::repo_disk_path, a raw
join with no validation, while create_repo and the sync mirror path both
go through validated_repo_disk_path. Its own name check is
`.chars().all(|c| c.is_alphanumeric() || c == '-' || c == '_')`, which is
Unicode-aware and has no length or leading-character rule, so it admits
four shapes validate_repo_name refuses: the empty string (all() is
vacuously true on it), a non-ASCII alphanumeric such as "cafe" with an
acute e, a leading '-', and a name over the 100-char bound.
The empty name was the reachable defect. Driven through the production
router with a real Ed25519 signature, a `{"name":""}` fork returned 201
Created with a repo row whose name is "" and a clone_url ending in
`/.git`, materialized at `<repos_dir>/<owner_slug>/.git`. It now returns
400 and creates neither the row nor the directory.
This is a deliberate narrowing, not only an empty-name fix: the other
three shapes above are now 400 on fork where they previously reached the
raw join. None of them could ever have been created through create_repo,
which fails at repo_store.init on the same validator, and no existing row
can carry such a name (create_repo validates before its DB insert, and
mirror rows go through validate_repo_slug), so no repo becomes
unforkable. A fork that defaults to source.name is unaffected.
The traversal shape of the same join is NOT reachable and is not what
this changes: forker_did comes from AuthenticatedDid, which auth/mod.rs
inserts only after Did::to_verifying_key resolves a multibase-decodable
did:key, so it can carry neither ".." nor "/".
repo_disk_path is now cfg(test). It has no production caller left, and
the attribute turns the next one into a compile error rather than a
silent bypass. Tests keep it because a fixture that must escape repos_dir
cannot be built with the validated form.
Two tests. A unit test on the mounted handler, and an end-to-end test
through server::build_router with real signatures that covers all four
refused shapes plus a positive control asserting an ordinary name still
forks to disk and to a row. Both are mutation-verified in both
directions: reverting to the raw join reddens the refusals, and forcing
fork to always refuse reddens the control.
Closed #272 fixed this class on the sync route and pointed at
repo_disk_path as the sanitizing convention; it is in fact the
unvalidated join, and the fork route was never scoped.

Greptile SummaryThe PR routes fork destinations through the shared repository-name and path validator, preventing malformed fork names from creating invalid repository paths. It also makes the raw path helper test-only and adds handler and end-to-end regression coverage.
Confidence Score: 4/5The production fix appears safe to merge, with only a non-blocking test-isolation issue in the new regression coverage. The validated resolver preserves the former path transformation for accepted names and correctly rejects malformed names before side effects; the remaining concern is that one new test shares a deterministic mutable directory across concurrent runs.

| Filename | Overview |
|---|---|
| crates/gitlawb-node/src/api/repos.rs | Replaces the raw fork destination join with the existing validated path barrier and consistently maps rejection to a bad request. |
| crates/gitlawb-node/src/git/store.rs | Restricts the unvalidated disk-path helper to tests, preventing future production bypasses at compile time. |
| crates/gitlawb-node/src/test_support.rs | Adds thorough handler and signed-router regression coverage, but one test uses a deterministic /tmp directory that can collide across concurrent test processes. |

immediately after forker_did and fork_name are available, before iCaptcha proof
consumption and repo_store.acquire. Preserve the BadRequest mapping and use its
result for the later repository path flow. Remove the redundant character
allowlist if validate_repo_name fully defines the accepted fork-name shape.

The barrier landed after `proof.consume` and after `repo_store.acquire`, so a name the character allowlist admits but `validate_repo_name` refuses burned a valid iCaptcha proof and paid a source-repo download before its 400. The handler's own header comment promises the opposite: a fork rejected for a bad name never burns a proof. Reported by CodeRabbit on the review of a7257dc. It now runs with the other admissibility checks, above both. The regression test pins the ORDER without iCaptcha plumbing. Seed a repo row whose bytes are not on disk: late validation lets the acquire fail first and the caller sees a 500 from git, so only early validation can produce the 400 the test asserts. Verified load-bearing by degrading the early call to `unwrap_or_else`, which reddens it. Both name rules are kept. CodeRabbit also suggested deleting the character allowlist as a strict subset of `validate_repo_name`, and that is not the relation between them: the allowlist rejects a dot, so `v1.2.3` and `my.repo` are refused today while `validate_repo_name` accepts both, and the allowlist accepts a non-ASCII alphanumeric that `validate_repo_name` rejects. Removing it would newly admit dotted fork names, which is a behaviour change and not a cleanup. A comment now records why the two coexist. The empty-name fixture also generates its owner DID per run. It writes to a fixed `/tmp/<owner_slug>`, so a shared constant let two concurrent `cargo test` processes delete each other's repo mid-test (reported by Greptile).

Summary
fork_repobuilt its clone destination withstore::repo_disk_path, a raw joinwith no validation, so a
{"name":""}fork returned 201 and created a repo rowwith an empty name at
<repos_dir>/<owner_slug>/.git. It now goes throughvalidated_repo_disk_path, the same barriercreate_repoand the sync mirrorpath already use.
Motivation & context
No issue: found while tracing which callers reach the barrier the CodeQL
rust/path-injectionalerts pass through. Fork was the one repo-creationentrypoint that skipped it.
Its own name check is
.chars().all(|c| c.is_alphanumeric() || c == '-' || c == '_').That is Unicode-aware and has no length or leading-character rule, so it admits
four shapes
validate_repo_namerefuses: the empty string (all()is vacuouslytrue on it), a non-ASCII alphanumeric, a leading
-, and a name over the100-char bound. The line dates to the initial public release, not a recent change.
Closed #272 fixed this class on the sync route and pointed at
repo_disk_pathasthe sanitizing convention. It is in fact the unvalidated join, and the fork route
was never scoped.
Kind of change
Not filed as a security fix: the reachable impact is a caller creating a
malformed repo in their own namespace, with no cross-owner effect. See the
traversal note below.
What changed
All in
gitlawb-node:api/repos.rs:fork_reporesolves its clone destination throughgit::repo_store::validated_repo_disk_pathand maps a rejection to 400.git/store.rs:repo_disk_pathis nowcfg(test). It has no productioncaller left, so the attribute turns the next one into a compile error rather
than a silent bypass. Tests keep it because a fixture that must escape
repos_dircannot be built with the validated form.test_support.rs: a unit test on the mounted handler, and an end-to-end testthrough
server::build_routerwith real Ed25519 signatures covering all fourrefused shapes plus a positive control.
This narrows fork's accepted names beyond the empty string, deliberately. It
costs nothing real: no existing repo can carry such a name, because
create_repocalls the validated
repo_store.initbefore its DB insert and mirror rows gothrough
validate_repo_slug, and those are the only two production inserts intorepos. A fork defaulting tosource.nameis unaffected.The traversal shape of the same join is not reachable and is not what this
changes.

Did::to_verifying_keyresolves a multibase-decodabledid:key, soit can carry neither

did:keydoes.How a reviewer can verify
Both tests are mutation-verified in both directions. Reverting the one changed
line in
fork_repoback tostore::repo_disk_pathreddens the refusalassertions; forcing fork to always refuse (pass a literal
"-always-invalid"inplace of
&fork_name) reddens the positive control. The control is there becausewithout it the four refusal assertions would also pass if the barrier rejected
everything.

Filed #411 separately while reading this code: only the allowlist layer of
validated_repo_disk_pathhas test coverage, and the component walk (the layerwritten so a static analyser can see the sanitisation) has no test that reaches
it. Not a vulnerability, and out of scope here.
The eight

validated_repo_disk_path. That is a separate cleanup onmain.Summary by CodeRabbit
