fix(security): move launcher log off predictable /tmp path (CWE-377) - #131
Conversation
…tmp (CWE-377)
betlang-playground.sh and keepopen.sh both hardcoded /tmp/${APP_NAME}.log
(the latter as keepopen's own default when invoked without an explicit
5th arg). A predictable /tmp path lets another local user pre-create,
symlink, or race the file. This is a durable, re-findable log (--logs and
--tail in a separate invocation must find what --start wrote), not scratch,
so it does not move to mktemp -d.
LOG_FILE in both scripts now resolves to:
${XDG_STATE_HOME:-$HOME/.local/state}/launch-scaffolder/${APP_NAME}/server.log
with the parent directory created mode 0700 (`mkdir -p` + `chmod 0700`,
not `mkdir -p -m 0700`, to avoid a new shellcheck SC2174 warning) right
after the LOG_FILE assignment in each script -- before any write, and, in
keepopen.sh, before the log() calls that previously ran ahead of the old
mkdir (which sat after those calls and silently discarded their output
via `2>/dev/null || true` when the directory didn't yet exist). The
duplicated literal "/tmp/${APP_NAME}.log" passed to keepopen.sh from
mode_start() is replaced with "$LOG_FILE" (single source of truth).
Every $LOG_FILE expansion is double-quoted.
ui/launcher/README.adoc:112 documented the old /tmp path in its keepopen.sh
usage example; updated to match so the doc doesn't go stale (and so
Hypatia's ["'/]tmp/ regex doesn't flag it).
launch-scaffolder realign will not overwrite either script: neither
carries a generator metadata block (verified: no `launch-scaffolder`/
`generated`/`DO NOT EDIT` marker in either file; the
launcher-standard_praxis.deed reference in both scripts' header comments
is a compliance-doc URL, not a metadata block).
Verification: bash -n OK on both scripts; shellcheck clean on both
(matches origin/main baseline byte-for-byte, mapped for the added lines --
no new warnings); grep -nE "[\"'/]tmp/" 0 hits on both scripts. Smoke run:
./betlang-playground.sh --status -> "STOPPED"; --logs -> correctly reports
no log file yet at the new XDG path; state dir confirmed created mode 0700
(ls -ld showing drwx------).

📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe launcher scripts now store server logs in app-specific directories under the user state directory. They create the log directory with mode ChangesLauncher log storage
Priority: ➖ Normal Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to Logs use the same restricted per-user state path across launcher use and the documented example. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to Private per-user log storage reduces exposure to other local users. The main remaining risk is that log-directory setup now runs before every launcher action, so a storage or permission failure can prevent stopping a running server. Custom log paths and already-running processes do not receive all of the new protections. Retained concerns

Its one ask (do not chmod a caller-supplied log dir) is done in d5bd34e; thread PRRT_kwDORtpHLs6nlyv4 is answered and resolved.
What changed and why
betlang-playground.shandkeepopen.shboth hardcoded/tmp/${APP_NAME}.log(the latter askeepopen.sh's own default wheninvoked without an explicit 5th arg — in practice
betlang-playground.shalways passes one explicitly, but the default is reachable directly). CWE-377:
a predictable
/tmppath lets another local user pre-create, symlink, or racethe file.
Classification: durable, re-findable log (not scratch).
--logsand--tailrun in a separate invocation from--startand must find the samefile, so this cannot move to
mktemp -d.LOG_FILEin both scripts now resolves to:with the parent directory created mode 0700 (
mkdir -p+chmod 0700—split from the brief's literal
mkdir -p -m 0700to avoid a new shellcheckSC2174 warning; the leaf directory still ends up 0700), placed right after
the
LOG_FILEassignment in each script — before any write.In
keepopen.shthis also fixes a latent bug: the oldmkdir -p ... || truesat after severallog()calls that already appended to$LOG_FILE, so those early lines were silently dropped (swallowed by2>/dev/null || true) whenever the directory didn't already exist. Movingthe directory creation to the top fixes this incidentally.
The duplicated literal
"/tmp/${APP_NAME}.log"passed frombetlang-playground.sh'smode_start()tokeepopen.shis replaced with"$LOG_FILE"(single source of truth). Every$LOG_FILEexpansion isdouble-quoted.
ui/launcher/README.adoc:112documented the old/tmppath in itskeepopen.shusage example; updated in this PR so the doc doesn't go staleand so Hypatia's
