Parent story: [E00-S04] Configuration service (#61)

Intent

Ensure .env.example contains placeholders only.

Acceptance criteria

• .env.example contains placeholders only
• no real secret values appear in the example file
• EPPP_SESSION_SECRET fails closed: its .env.example placeholder is shorter
  than the schema's 32-character minimum, so an unedited cp .env.example .env
  is rejected at startup rather than booting with a publicly known secret
  (security finding F3). The config-package alternative (rejecting the
  change-me marker) remains out of scope per E00-S04-T01.
• the branch stays gitleaks-clean: secret-shaped mutation-probe literals in the
  test suite are computed at runtime or carry an inline # gitleaks:allow, so
  the fixture never introduces a secrets-scanner hit (security finding F2)
• test assertion messages never interpolate a raw secret/placeholder value; a
  failing assertion echoes a truncated or masked value, never the raw string
  (security finding F4)

Explicitly out of scope

• process.env access rule (E00-S04-T04)
• TypeBox/Ajv schema (E00-S04-T01)

Test plan

• inspect .env.example and confirm only placeholders are present
• run gitleaks detect --source . --no-git --redact and confirm zero hits on
  the branch, including the mutation probes
• confirm the EPPP_SESSION_SECRET placeholder is shorter than 32 characters,
  so an unedited copy fails startup validation
• confirm no assertion message echoes a raw secret/placeholder value

Rollback note

• revert the example file change

Notes

• The CI addition (.gitea/workflows/ci.yml env-example job) is a pipeline
  tripwire (review checklist §6.4): any change to .gitea/workflows/ requires
  a human maintainer decision/approval on the PR, regardless of author. No code
  change is required beyond that sign-off (security finding F1).

# Deterministic checks (run in a clean clone of the PR head)
checks:
  secrets:
    tool: gitleaks detect --source . --no-git --redact   # + commit-range scan 1e0f628..HEAD
    result: 1 hit (synthetic test fixture, not a real credential — finding 2)

    result: no issues (25 packages, pnpm-lock.yaml)

# Acceptance criteria (issue #186) — verified against the diff
criteria:
  placeholders_only: >-
    PASS — .env.example (new, 44 lines) contains only benign non-secret
    defaults (0.0.0.0, ports, localhost, eppp, no-credential
    postgres://localhost:5432/eppp) or explicit change-me markers; no
    credential URI, no random-looking token in the file itself.
  no_real_secret_values: >-
    PASS — no real secret values anywhere in the example; .gitignore
    correctly keeps .env/.env.* ignored while un-ignoring only !.env.example;
    .dockerignore **/.env.* keeps the template out of the build context;
    compose.yaml and packages/config changes are comment/doc-only.
  authz_input_trace: >-
    PASS — no runtime code, routes, handlers, outbound requests,
    deserialization, or injection surfaces in the diff.

# Findings (severity per review checklist: blocker | should | nit)
findings:
  - id: F1
    severity: blocker
    file: ".gitea/workflows/ci.yml:290-310"
    what: >-
      The diff modifies CI config (adds the env-example job). Pipeline
      tripwire (review checklist §6.4): changes to .gitea/workflows/ are
      always a blocker regardless of author, flagged needs/human-decision.
      The added job itself scans clean: actions/checkout@v4 +
      actions/setup-node@v4 + `node --test tests/env-example.test.mjs` —
      no secrets referenced, no ${{ }} interpolation, no third-party or
      unpinned actions, consistent with sibling jobs.
    fix: >-
      Human maintainer sign-off on the workflow addition.
    evidence_to_resolve: >-
      A human-decision approval on PR #404 confirming the env-example job
      is intended; no code change required.
  - id: F2
    severity: should
    file: "tests/env-example.test.mjs:192"
    what: >-
      gitleaks generic-api-key hit (working tree and commit 3b2f61c): the
      mutation-probe literal EPPP_SESSION_SECRET=aB3dE9fG0hI1jK2lM3nO4pQ5rS6tU7vW8xY9zA0
      is secret-shaped. Exploit path: none — the value is fabricated and is
      rejected by the very assertion it probes. Impact is gate hygiene: the
      tree was gitleaks-clean on main, so this PR introduces the first hit
      and any gitleaks-gated scan of the branch fails.
    fix: >-
      Append an inline `# gitleaks:allow` to the probe line, or compute the
      probe value at runtime instead of embedding a secret-shaped literal.
  - id: F3
    severity: should
    file: ".env.example:32"
    what: >-
      The EPPP_SESSION_SECRET placeholder "change-me-to-a-random-32-character-secret"
      is 42 chars, so it satisfies the schema's ≥32 minimum. Exploit path: a
      developer runs `cp .env.example .env` and skips editing → the app boots
      with a publicly known session secret and passes startup validation
      (fail-open instead of fail-closed).
    fix: >-
      Ship a placeholder shorter than 32 characters so the schema rejects an
      unedited copy, and/or have the config package reject the known
      change-me marker.
  - id: F4
    severity: nit
    file: "tests/env-example.test.mjs:144"
    what: >-
      The assertion message interpolates raw values ("must be a placeholder
      value, got: \"${value}\""), so if a real secret ever lands in
      .env.example, a failing CI run echoes it into job logs. Bounded risk —
      it requires the secret to already be committed — but easy to avoid.
    fix: >-
      Echo a truncated or masked value in the assertion message.

summary: >-
  The secrets-hygiene goal of the PR is genuinely met: no real secret values,
  correct ignore/dockerignore layering, non-vacuous tests. request-changes is
  driven by the pipeline tripwire (F1 — human decision on the CI workflow
  change), plus two low-severity hygiene/hardening findings (F2, F3). No
  exploit path exists in any finding.

objective: security review of PR #404 ([E00-S04-T05] .env.example contains placeholders only)
skills: security-audit, security-baseline, review-checklist
plan:
  - gitleaks detect --source . --no-git --redact (must be 0 hits)
  - osv-scanner --recursive . (dependency audit; semgrep only if pre-installed)
  - inspect the .gitea/workflows/ci.yml change (pipeline tripwire F1 — human sign-off required)
  - authz/input-boundary trace over the diff (new endpoints: none expected)
  - verify placeholder-only template, fails-closed EPPP_SESSION_SECRET, masked assertion messages

# Deterministic checks (clean clone at PR head f4a282d, working tree verified via git rev-parse)
checks:
  secrets: >-
    gitleaks detect --source . --no-git --redact -> 0 hits (exit 0).
    Commit-range scan 1e0f628..HEAD -> 1 hit (exit 1, synthetic probe, finding F5).
    Baseline history reachable from base 1e0f628 (100 commits) -> 0 hits, so this
    PR introduces the first history hit on the branch.
  dependencies: >-
    osv-scanner --recursive . -> no issues found (25 packages, pnpm-lock.yaml).
  sast: >-
    semgrep not installed -> skipped per playbook; gap covered by the manual
    authz/input trace below.
  tests: >-
    node --test tests/env-example.test.mjs -> 10/10 pass (exit 0) run locally on
    head f4a282d. CI run 108 for this exact head was still in_progress at review
    time (run 107 green was for the previous head ec4719a).

# Acceptance criteria (issue #186) — verified against the diff
criteria:
  placeholders_only: >-
    PASS — .env.example contains only benign non-secret defaults (0.0.0.0, ports,
    localhost, eppp, no-credential postgres://localhost:5432/eppp) or change-me
    markers; no credential URI, no duplicate variables, all four required vars
    documented; malformed lines throw via parseAssignments.
  no_real_secret_values: >-
    PASS — only change-me placeholders present; compose default credential
    postgres://eppp:eppp@db:5432/eppp appears nowhere (values or comments);
    .gitignore keeps .env/.env.* ignored while un-ignoring only !.env.example;
    .dockerignore **/.env.* keeps the template out of the image build context;
    compose.yaml / packages/config / docs changes are comment- and doc-only.
  fails_closed: >-
    PASS — EPPP_SESSION_SECRET=change-me is 9 chars < the schema's 32-char
    minimum (verified on disk), so an unedited cp .env.example .env is rejected
    at startup (round-1 F3 resolved).
  branch_gitleaks_clean: >-
    PARTIAL — working tree is clean per the issue Test plan's exact command
    (--no-git, 0 hits), but gitleaks' default history mode still finds 1 hit in
    commit 3b2f61c on this branch (finding F5 below).
  masked_assertion_messages: >-
    PASS — every value-echoing assertion uses maskValue(); grep found no raw
    ${value}/${raw}/${match[1]}/${forbidden} interpolation (round-1 F4 resolved).

# Authz / input-boundary trace (scanner-gap coverage)
authz_input_trace: >-
  PASS — no runtime code changes: no new routes, handlers, endpoints, outbound
  requests, deserialization, or injection surfaces in the diff. The new CI job
  (env-example) uses pinned actions/checkout@v4 + actions/setup-node@v4 and a
  fixed `node --test` command: no ${{ }} interpolation, no secrets references,
  no third-party/unpinned actions, consistent with sibling jobs.

# Findings (severity per review checklist: blocker | should | nit)
findings:
  - id: F1
    severity: blocker
    flag: needs/human-decision
    file: ".gitea/workflows/ci.yml:290-310"
    what: >-
      The diff modifies CI config (adds the env-example job). Pipeline tripwire
      (review checklist §6.4): changes to .gitea/workflows/ are always a blocker
      regardless of author. Round-1 status unchanged: PR #404 has zero reviews
      and no human maintainer decision on the workflow addition; issue #186
      Notes require that sign-off. The added job itself scans clean (see trace).
    fix: >-
      Human maintainer sign-off on the workflow addition. No code change.
    evidence_to_resolve: >-
      A human-decision approval recorded on PR #404 confirming the env-example
      job is intended.
  - id: F5
    severity: should
    file: "commit 3b2f61c, tests/env-example.test.mjs:192"
    what: >-
      gitleaks generic-api-key hit (entropy 5.13) in the branch history: the
      round-1 secret-shaped probe literal still exists in commit 3b2f61c even
      though the rework (f4a282d) removed it from the current file. Exploit
      path: none — the value is fabricated and rejected by the assertion it
      probes. Impact is gate hygiene: baseline history is clean, so this is the
      first hit; a full-history scan of the branch (gitleaks' default mode)
      fails, and a merge-commit merge would pollute main permanently.
    fix: >-
      Squash-merge this PR (collapses the probe out of reachable history) or
      rebase/squash the branch so the literal never lands in the permanent
      history.
    evidence_to_resolve: >-
      gitleaks detect --log-opts="1e0f628..HEAD" -> 0 hits on the branch, or an
      explicit maintainer acceptance plus a squash merge.
  - id: F6
    severity: nit
    file: "tests/env-example.test.mjs:60"
    what: >-
      LONG_SECRET_RE is defined but never referenced — dead code left over from
      the F2 rework (the runtime-built SECRET_SHAPED_PROBE replaced its use).
      No security impact.
    fix: Remove the unused constant.

# Round-1 findings — resolution verified in this revision
resolved_findings:
  - id: F2
    result: resolved-in-tree — SECRET_SHAPED_PROBE is built at runtime from short fragments; working tree 0 hits (residual history hit tracked as F5)
  - id: F3
    result: resolved — placeholder shortened to change-me (9 chars < 32 minimum); fails closed
  - id: F4
    result: resolved — maskValue() masks/truncates every value echoed in assertion messages

summary: >-
  The secrets-hygiene substance of the PR is genuinely met and all three
  round-1 code findings (F2/F3/F4) are verifiably fixed: placeholders only, no
  real secret values, fails-closed session secret, masked messages, 10/10 tests
  passing with non-vacuous mutation probes, osv-scanner clean. request-changes
  is driven by the unresolved pipeline tripwire (F1 — human decision on the CI
  workflow change, still no maintainer sign-off on the PR) plus one should
  (F5 — synthetic probe hit lingering in branch history; recommend squash
  merge) and one nit (F6). No exploit path exists in any finding.

Human-maintainer decision (kpcto) — resolves security-review finding F1 (pipeline tripwire / needs-human-decision) on PR #404 (head f4a282d).

I approve the new additive env-example CI job in .gitea/workflows/ci.yml: it is purely additive (no existing job modified), uses the same action majors already in the file (actions/checkout@v4, actions/setup-node@v4), has no secrets: context and no ${{ }} interpolation, and runs node --test tests/env-example.test.mjs only. I accept it.

      Pipeline tripwire (review checklist §6.4): the diff changes
      .gitea/workflows/ (adds the env-example job). Recorded in issue #186
      Notes; a human maintainer decision/approval on PR #404 is required.
      No code change required. The job itself scans clean

      non-secret fragments (SECRET_SHAPED_PROBE). Verified:
      `gitleaks detect --source . --no-git --redact` -> 0 hits on the branch
      (baseline before the fix: 1 hit at tests/env-example.test.mjs:192).
  - id: F3
    severity: should
    status: fixed
    resolution: >-
      .env.example: EPPP_SESSION_SECRET placeholder shortened to `change-me`

      src/schema.ts:46, minLength: 32), so an unedited `cp .env.example .env`
      fails startup validation (fails closed). Locked by a new test

# Independent re-verification (clean clone of the PR head, read-only — no edits)
criteria:
  placeholders_only:
    result: PASS
    evidence: >-
      .env.example (47 lines) contains only benign non-secret defaults
      (HOST=0.0.0.0, PORT=3000, POSTGRES_PORT=5432, APP_PORT=3000,
      POSTGRES_DB/USER=eppp, DATABASE_URL=postgres://localhost:5432/eppp) or
      explicit change-me placeholders (EPPP_SESSION_SECRET=change-me,
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD=change-me-db-password). Every line is a comment, a
      blank line, or a well-formed KEY=value; no duplicate variables; all four
      required vars (HOST/PORT/DATABASE_URL/EPPP_SESSION_SECRET) documented.
  no_real_secret_values:
    result: PASS
    evidence: >-
      No credential URI, no long random-looking token, and the compose
      dev-default credential (postgres://eppp:eppp@db:5432/eppp) appears
      nowhere in the file. .gitignore keeps .env/.env.* ignored while
      un-ignoring only !.env.example.
  fails_closed:
    result: PASS
    evidence: >-
      EPPP_SESSION_SECRET=change-me is 9 chars, below the schema minimum
      (packages/config/src/schema.ts:46 sessionSecret: Type.String({ minLength: 32 })).
      An unedited `cp .env.example .env` is therefore rejected at startup.
  branch_gitleaks_clean:
    result: PASS (working tree) / NOTE (history)
    evidence: >-
      gitleaks 8.30.1 `detect --source . --no-git --redact` -> 0 hits (exit 0),
      the issue Test plan's exact command. Secret-shaped mutation probe
      (SECRET_SHAPED_PROBE) is built at runtime from short fragments — no
      secret-shaped literal in the current tree. Full-history scan finds 1
      generic-api-key hit at tests/env-example.test.mjs:192 in commit 3b2f61c
      (the round-1 synthetic probe literal, removed in f4a282d) — non-blocking,
      recommend squash-merge so it never enters main's permanent history.
  masked_assertion_messages:
    result: PASS
    evidence: >-
      Every value-echoing assertion message uses maskValue() (lines 139/156/176);
      the session-secret message echoes only length (line 209). No raw
      secret/placeholder value is interpolated into any assertion message.

# Executed checks (local, PR head)
checks:
  test_suite: "node --test tests/env-example.test.mjs -> 10/10 pass"
  gitleaks_tree: "gitleaks detect --source . --no-git --redact -> 0 hits (exit 0)"
  gitleaks_history: "gitleaks detect --source . --redact -> 1 hit (exit 1): commit 3b2f61c, tests/env-example.test.mjs:192, generic-api-key (synthetic probe)"
  schema_min_length: "packages/config/src/schema.ts:46 -> sessionSecret minLength: 32"

# Non-blocking observations (re-verified, inherited from security round 2)
observations:
  - id: F5
    severity: should
    what: >-
      Branch history (commit 3b2f61c) still carries the round-1 synthetic
      secret-shaped probe literal; working tree is clean. Recommend
      squash-merge to keep main's history gitleaks-clean.
  - id: F6
    severity: nit
    what: "tests/env-example.test.mjs:60 — LONG_SECRET_RE is defined but never referenced (dead code)."
  - id: F1
    severity: blocker (resolved)
    what: >-
      Pipeline tripwire (.gitea/workflows/ci.yml env-example job) — resolved by
      human-maintainer sign-off (kpcto, issuecomment-3409) approving the
      additive job.
