fix(extensions): bound the entry-source AST walk instead of overflowing the stack - #3025
Merged
Conversation
…ipt AST checkBannedConstructs in source-wrap.ts only ever inspected ast.body, so import/export syntax written inside a nested function, arrow body, or class method passed silently — the check's name and its callers implied a full scan, but it only ever looked at the top level. Walk the entire AST with acorn-walk (already a declared dependency) instead of hand-rolling a top-level-only loop. Also flag dynamic import(...) anywhere it appears, since — unlike static import/export, which the ECMAScript grammar restricts to the top level regardless — it's an expression that can be nested. eval and new Function are left alone: both run confined inside the same non-module sandbox realm with no path to the host bridge, so banning them would restrict legitimate extension code without an isolation benefit.
`checkBannedConstructs` walked the AST with `acorn-walk`'s recursive
`walk.simple`, from a call site outside the try/catch that guards
`acorn.parse`. `wrapEntrySource` is declared to return a
`ValidationResult`, but an entry script of ~500 nested blocks made the
walk throw `RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded` straight out
of it — input that previously returned `{ok: true}`.
Walk iteratively over an explicit heap stack, with a fixed bound of
1000 AST levels. Past the bound the script is rejected with an
`invalid_value` error naming the limit, which is how acorn's own
parser already degrades on input it cannot handle. Real entry scripts
nest a few tens of levels; 400 nested blocks (~800 AST levels) still
wraps, and a banned construct buried under deep-but-legal nesting is
still flagged.

…hree others (#3061) `useSandbox.runSupersession.test.tsx` failed on THREE unrelated PRs within an hour (#3025, #3027, #3044), always on `Viewer tests (shard 1)`, always with a gate-timing assertion counting 0 or 2 where it wants 1. None of those diffs can reach that test: two touch only packages/extensions and packages/create. It passes locally 3 of 3 at both concurrency settings, and #3038's shard 1 on the same base ran the identical suite green. This is my change's consequence, so I am undoing the part that caused it rather than asking three authors to re-run. --test-concurrency=4 came from the FIRST attempt at this lane, which I measured and showed did not help CI at all. I carried it forward once sharding worked, on the grounds that a real 2x locally was harmless. It is not harmless: it makes a timing-sensitive test race three neighbours under CI load, and its speedup is now redundant, because the parallelism comes from four concurrent shard JOBS. Measured cost of going back to 1, rather than assumed: 70s versus 19s per shard locally, so roughly 8 minutes versus 2 on CI, against a 25 minute cap. That budget absorbs it without argument. Not claiming proof. I have a mechanism and a correlation, not a reproduction -- it passes locally either way, and I have no clean pre-sharding CI baseline because the lane was broken. What I do have is a variable I introduced whose benefit is now redundant, so removing it costs a well-affordable six minutes and eliminates a candidate. If the flake survives this, it was never concurrency and #3060 is where it goes.

Correct the nested syntax description.
Static import and export declarations cannot occur inside function, arrow, or class-method bodies. Acorn rejects those forms during parsing, so they did not bypass the previous ast.body scan. Describe nested dynamic import(...) as the bypassed construct.

Replaces a check with an AST walk in
wrapEntrySource, and bounds that walk so it cannot overflow the stack on attacker-supplied source.The branch as found introduced the overflow
walk.simplerecurses per AST node with no bound, andcheckBannedConstructssat outside thetry/catchguardingacorn.parse— sowrapEntrySource, declared to return aValidationResult, threw an uncaughtRangeErrorfor input that previously returned{ok: true}:upstream/mainIterative walk with a stated bound, not try/catch
Catching the
RangeErrorwas the obvious fix and is the wrong one: it makes the accept/reject boundary depend on how much call stack happens to be left at that call site, so the same script could pass on one code path and fail on another. The error is a symptom, not a policy.Instead the walk uses an explicit heap stack with
MAX_AST_DEPTH = 1000. At the bound it stops and returns{ok:false},code: 'invalid_value', "Entry script is nested more than 1000 AST levels deep." — a reported result, never a throw.The bound is placed against measurement: one
if(1){…}level ≈ 2 AST levels (900 source levels → 1802 AST), and acorn itself refuses to parse at ~1200 source levels here. So 1000 sits below the parser's own env-dependent floor, which makes it the deterministic limit rather than a second, fuzzier one.Post-fix: 400 →
ok(unchanged from main); 500 and 900 → the depth error. Depths 500-900 previously returned{ok:true}, so this is a deliberate narrowing on input ~20x deeper than any real script — chosen over silently accepting what the parser would refuse.Mutants
Bound ×100 → killed. Bound → 100 → killed (3 tests). Drop the early
return→ killed.depth + 1→depth→ killed.return errors→breaksurvives, and is claimed equivalent, not killed: the check sits directly in thewhilebody, sobreakexits the same loop with the same single error. No fixture was manufactured to kill a mutant that produces identical output.Tests added at depth 900 (in the 500-1200 range), depth 400 still wrapping, and a dynamic
import()under 200 legal nesting levels still flagged.packages/extensions780 passed / 59 files (777 on the branch + 3 new — note I measured 777, not the 788 I was given).tsc --noEmitclean,typecheck-testsOK, changeset extended.Same class, two more sites — reported, not touched
packages/extensions/src/validate/code.tsandsrc/inference/capability.tsalso call recursiveacorn-walkon the same attacker-controlled source, with no depth bound. Out of scope here, but they are the same defect and worth their own pass.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
