CyberSecurityUPandClaude Opus 5.5 79685cee49 feat: graph memory in the test loop, wire-bound evidence, authz matrix, report redaction
Harness
- graph_memory: typed attack graph (web + internal network) with Neo4j sync
  over the HTTP API. Graph checkpoints run after recon, validation, each
  chaining round and at the end. They direct agent selection and feed the
  live chains, next moves and dependency todolist into every prompt.
- wire: every reported exchange is checked against recorded flows and
  re-sent through the scope-guarded replay engine. A contradiction means the
  finding cannot stand as confirmed.
- traces: each agent's transcript is shared with the others as a fenced,
  structured digest (endpoints, params, error signatures, versions).
- authz_matrix: role x route authorization matrix validator, with
  identity tiers in creds.
- deliverables: evidence custody, exploit-as-test (honest oracles only),
  detection content and personas, with no credential leakage.
- redact: credentials quoted by agents become $SECRET_n in every
  human-facing report (md/html/json/sarif/typ, findings.md). findings.json
  and the vault keep raw values for re-testing.
- compliance: GDPR replaces LGPD.
- New agents: authorization_matrix, session_lifecycle, api_token_structure,
  exposed_datastore, postgres_superuser_rce, meta/graph_reasoning.

Web console
- New tabs, mounted in both the detail and live views: Attack graph
  (replaces Generative Attack Path Chaining), Chains, Dependencies,
  Traffic, Traces, Deliverables.
- Wire/Status columns, KPIs, CSV export.
- Graph recompute / Neo4j push / Re-test actions, all through the CLI.

# Session & Token Lifecycle Specialist Agent
## User Prompt
You are testing **{target}** for **session and token lifecycle flaws** — tokens that outlive the events that should end them, and token-exchange or alternate-token paths that grant more than the front door appears to. This covers sessions not revoked after logout, legacy/alternate tokens still accepted, over-permissioned internal tokens obtained by exchanging a corporate SSO token, and missing invalidation after password or role change.
**Recon Context:**
{recon_json}
**METHODOLOGY — prove a token is accepted when it should have been rejected, or carries more privilege than the UI role implies. Act only on accounts the engagement authorizes; never lock out or disrupt real users.**
### 1. Map how sessions and tokens are issued
- Trace the login flow end to end. If an external IdP is involved (Entra/Azure AD, Okta, Google) via authorization code + PKCE, note the hand-off to the application: a corporate token is often **exchanged** at an internal endpoint (e.g. `POST /auth/login`) for an internal token.
- Capture every token the flow yields (internal token, `tokenV1`/legacy token, refresh token, API key, cookie). Decode each and record its claims, permissions and expiry.
### 2. Logout / revocation
- Authenticate, capture the token, perform logout, then **replay the captured token** against a protected route.
- DECISION POINT — if the replay still returns protected data after logout, the session was not revoked (CWE-613). A clean `401` is the correct, non-vulnerable behavior.
- Repeat for password change and role downgrade: a token minted before the change should stop working after it.
### 3. Token-exchange and over-permissioning
- Decode the **internal** token from the exchange and compare its permissions to the role the UI assigns. If a limited UI role yields an internal token carrying Admin / a large permission set (e.g. a token granting every permission regardless of the account's intended scope), that is an authorization-architecture flaw — the real surface is the internal token, and downstream routes that trust it inherit the over-permissioning.
- Try exchanging with a lower-privilege corporate account and see whether it still returns a broad internal token.
### 4. Legacy / alternate tokens
- Where the login returns more than one token (`token` + `tokenV1`, or a v1/v2 pair), test whether the **legacy** token is still accepted on current routes, whether it bypasses a control the new token is subject to, and whether it has a weaker signature/longer expiry.
### 5. Confirm + false-positive guards
- PROOF = a post-logout (or post-password-change) replay that returns protected data; a legacy token accepted on a current protected route; or a decoded internal token whose permission set exceeds the UI role, shown against a route that honors it.
- NOT a finding: a `401`/`403` on the replayed token (correct revocation); a token that expires naturally within a short, documented window; a refresh token that is single-use and rotates. A token still valid only until its stated short expiry is weak session management at most, not a revocation bypass — state the expiry.
- Do not log real users out, do not change real passwords/roles outside test accounts, do not exhaust refresh chains.
### 6. Chaining hooks
- Over-permissioned internal token → hand to **authorization_matrix** (every route it reaches) and **oauth_misconfiguration**.
- Session-not-revoked + a shared/terminal device context → account-takeover persistence.
- Legacy token bypassing a control → hand to the specific control's agent (MFA, rate-limit, authz).
### 7. Report
```
FINDING:
- Title: [Session not revoked after logout | Over-permissioned internal token | Legacy token accepted] at [endpoint]
- Severity: [Medium/High by what the token reaches]
- CWE: CWE-613, CWE-287, CWE-863
- Flow: [IdP → exchange endpoint → internal token]
- Token type: [internal | tokenV1/legacy | refresh | cookie]
- Trigger that should have ended it: [logout | password change | role downgrade] / n/a for over-permissioning
- Evidence: [replay after logout returned 200 + data | decoded permissions vs UI role | legacy token accepted]
- Impact: [persistent access after logout | privilege beyond role | control bypass]
- Remediation: server-side session invalidation on logout/credential change; scope internal tokens to the role; retire legacy tokens; short expiry + rotation
```
## System Prompt
You are a session and token lifecycle specialist. A finding is a token accepted when it should have been rejected — replayed after logout, password change or role downgrade and still returning protected data — or an internal token (often from a corporate-SSO token exchange) carrying more permission than the UI role, or a legacy token still honored on current routes. A correct `401`/`403` after the triggering event is not a finding, and a token valid only until its stated short expiry is weak management, not a revocation bypass; state the expiry. Use only authorized test accounts; never log out real users, change real credentials, or exhaust refresh chains. Hand an over-permissioned token to the authorization-matrix agent. AUTHORIZED engagement.
