External audit by @tg12 found three coupled vulnerabilities in the
Next.js admin-auth surface that together let any webpage the operator
visits trigger arbitrary privileged backend calls:
#249/#254 — Cross-origin webpages can have process.env.ADMIN_KEY
injected into their forwarded backend requests just by
issuing fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/wormhole/...')
from a browser tab the operator has open. Full
identity-takeover CSRF.
#255 — When ADMIN_KEY is unset on the server (the default in
.env.example), the admin session route fell through to
GET /api/settings/privacy-profile to "verify" the user-
supplied key. That endpoint is public; it always returns
200 for any X-Admin-Key value. So arbitrary attacker
keys minted full admin session cookies on default
installs.
Both fixes preserve every legitimate UX path. Origin-header gating is
transparent to browser tabs on the dashboard's own host, transparent
to Tauri/native shells (no Origin), and transparent to server-to-
server callers (no Origin). Only cross-origin browser fetches with a
foreign Origin lose the injection.
frontend/src/app/api/[...path]/route.ts
Adds isSameOriginOrNonBrowser() — checks the Origin header against
the request's own Host. Allow if no Origin (native/server-to-
server), allow if Origin host == Host host (same-origin), reject
otherwise. The admin-key injection now requires EITHER a valid
session cookie (auth) OR same-origin-or-non-browser (CSRF guard).
frontend/src/app/api/admin/session/route.ts
verifyAdminKey() simplified to local-only string comparison. When
ADMIN_KEY is configured, the supplied key must match exactly.
When ADMIN_KEY is unset, minting is refused entirely with a clear
message pointing the operator at the backend's auto-trust-loopback
behavior (SHADOWBROKER_TRUST_DOCKER_BRIDGE_LOCAL_OPERATOR=1, the
Docker default — local users keep working without a session).
The previous round-trip to /api/settings/privacy-profile was both
the source of the bug AND useless on its own merits (the endpoint
is public). Removing it makes the validation honest about what
it's checking.
Tests:
frontend/src/__tests__/proxy/proxyAuthBypassChain.test.ts (new, 12)
Cross-origin fetch to sensitive route → no admin-key injection
Cross-origin POST to sensitive route → no admin-key injection
Same-origin fetch → admin-key injection works
No-Origin (server-to-server / native) → admin-key injection works
Valid session cookie on cross-origin → cookie auth wins
Malformed Origin → conservative reject
Non-sensitive routes unaffected
Mint with ADMIN_KEY unset → refused (no fetch happens)
Empty key → 400
Mint with matching ADMIN_KEY → success
Mint with mismatched key → 403
Mint never round-trips to the backend (local-only validation)
frontend/src/__tests__/desktop/adminSessionBoundary.test.ts (updated)
Three tests updated to reflect the new local-only validation
contract. The previous tests asserted fetchMock.toHaveBeenCalled
which validated the now-removed (and broken) backend round-trip.
Full frontend suite: 707 passed, 72 files. No regressions.
Credit: @tg12 for the report. The cross-origin CSRF angle was
non-obvious — they specifically called out that the proxy's
admin-key injection was an open door for any page running in the
operator's browser, which is exactly the right framing.

* Regression coverage for the auth-bypass chain audited by @tg12 in
|
|
* issues #249, #254, and #255.
|
|
*
|
|
* #249 / #254 — Cross-origin webpages must not have the operator's
|
|
* server-side ADMIN_KEY injected into their forwarded requests. The
|
|
* proxy enforces a CSRF guard by checking the Origin header against
|
|
* the request's own Host header. Same-origin (the dashboard itself),
|
|
* Tauri/native shells (no Origin), and authenticated session cookies
|
|
* are all allowed; cross-origin browser fetches with a foreign Origin
|
|
* are rejected.
|
|
*
|
|
* #255 — Admin session minting must require ADMIN_KEY to be configured
|
|
* AND the supplied key to match exactly. The previous implementation
|
|
* round-tripped to a public backend endpoint (/api/settings/privacy-
|
|
* profile) which always returns 200, so any key value would mint a
|
|
* full admin session when ADMIN_KEY was unset on the server.
