feat(output): report hidden markup — tiny font, invisible colour, comments outside code
Session 5 of the 2026 threat plan (attack row 3): A04 and A15 were red. - html-obfuscation:tiny-font (HIGH): font below 4px. ShadowLeak's 1px passed because the commons zero-font row only matches a leading 0. - html-obfuscation:invisible-colour (HIGH): text within 8 per channel of the background in the same style attribute, or transparent. White alone is not a signal (email buttons); measured residual in LIMITATIONS. - output:html-comment-present (MEDIUM): a comment in the artifact outside fenced code and inline code. 253/254 comments in the reference corpus sit in code. Local to output.py; the vendored lexicon stays byte-equal with commons. Guard rule before/after: FP 106/198, 196/2918, 108/389 identical; OKF 6/53 and 47/31 identical. Matrix 139/139, ReDoS 161 patterns 0 flagged, suite 1142 passed + 6 xfailed. Row 3: 12 caught, 1 gap, 6 open.

### Added — hidden markup at the persist gate (attacks A04, A14, A15)
|
||||
|
||||
Three new findings. Each is caught by `scan_output`, so it fires on both the
|
||||
input-side scan and the persist gate.
|
||||
|
||||
| Finding | Severity | What it reports |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `html-obfuscation:tiny-font` | HIGH | an element styled with a font below 4px (`calibration.HIDDEN_FONT_MAX_PX`). ShadowLeak's `font-size:1px` passed with 0 findings, because the vendored commons row `zero-font` only matches a size written with a leading `0` |
|
||||
| `html-obfuscation:invisible-colour` | HIGH | text coloured like the background declared in the same `style` attribute (within 8 per channel), or transparent |
|
||||
| `output:html-comment-present` | MEDIUM | an HTML comment in the artifact outside fenced code and inline code. The input side already stripped comments; the output side never looked, so a CopyPasta comment the model carried along passed |
|
||||
|
||||
White text on its own is deliberately **not** flagged, because HTML email puts
|
||||
white text on dark buttons. A comment inside code is not flagged, because a
|
||||
renderer shows it as code. Both residuals are in `docs/LIMITATIONS.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
**If you route on labels:** documents with hidden styling or a hidden comment now
|
||||
get findings they did not get before. Under `PRESET_USER_UPLOAD` that is
|
||||
`QUARANTINE_REVIEW` or `FAIL_SECURE`, not WARN.
|
||||
|
||||
**Measured against the guard rule, before and after:** the false-positive
|
||||
populations are identical at 106/198 · 196/2918 · 108/389. The new labels fire
|
||||
once in total, on a red-team document that was already non-WARN. The pinned
|
||||
OKF corpus is identical at 6/53 parsed and 47/31 on import. The coverage matrix
|
||||
is at 139/139 classes. The ReDoS sweep covers 161 patterns, 0 flagged. Attack
|
||||
row 3: A04 and A15 are caught, leaving 12 caught, 1 documented gap and 6 open.

- **Hidden styling is judged from the element's own `style` attribute, and white
|
||||
text alone is not a signal.** `html-obfuscation:tiny-font` reports a font below
|

4px (`HIDDEN_FONT_MAX_PX`; pt, em, rem and % converted at 16px per em), and

`html-obfuscation:invisible-colour` reports text within 8 per channel of the

background declared in the *same* attribute, or transparent. A background on a
|

parent element, a `<style>` class, or a colour reached by inheritance is not

seen. White text is everyday HTML email (white on a dark button, with the

button colour on the `<td>`), so it is not flagged by itself. Measured
|
||||
2026-10-31: an instruction in plain prose styled only `color:#ffffff` gives
|
||||
**0 findings**. ShadowLeak's form is caught because it also used a 1px font.
|
||||
A size written with a leading `0` is left to the vendored commons row
|
||||
`html-obfuscation:zero-font`, so one element is not reported twice. That row
|
||||
also matches readable sizes such as `font-size:0.9em` and misses `.2em`; the
|

regex belongs to commons and has been reported there. No inline font-size
|

below 8px and no same-colour pair occurs in the 3 505 benign documents or the

78 OKF concepts, but those corpora carry almost no inline styling (5 documents),

so that 0 says little about HTML-heavy sources.

- **A comment shown as code is not reported at the persist gate, and that

exemption assumes markdown.** `output:html-comment-present` (MEDIUM, like
|

`sanitize:html-comment` on the input side) counts each `<!-- -->` outside a
|
||||
fenced code block or an inline code span, because a renderer shows those as
|
||||
code. Measured on the reference corpus: 253 of its 254 comments sit in code
|
||||
(XML policy samples), and the one that does not is an attack example written
|
||||
inline in a red-team document. In an HTML artifact a backtick is not code, so
|
||||
a comment wrapped in backticks there is hidden yet not reported. A code span
|
||||
across lines is not recognised (the comment is reported), and neither is an
|

indented code block (a comment there is reported although it renders). The

input side is unchanged: it strips every comment, code samples included.

"""Hidden markup at the persist gate — text a human reviewer cannot see but the next agent reads.

|

Two holes measured in session 1 (`docs/threat-2026/attacks.json`):
|
||||
|
||||
* **A04 / A14 — hidden by styling.** ShadowLeak hid instructions in an email with a
|
||||
tiny font and white text. The vendored commons row ``html-obfuscation:zero-font``
|
||||
only matches a size written with a leading ``0``, so ``font-size:1px`` gave 0
|
||||
findings. ``html-obfuscation:tiny-font`` covers the rest below
|
||||
``calibration.HIDDEN_FONT_MAX_PX``; ``html-obfuscation:invisible-colour`` covers text
|
||||
coloured like its own background, or transparent. White text on its own is NOT
|
||||
flagged: HTML email puts white text on dark buttons, with the background often on
|
||||
a parent element the attribute never shows.
|
||||
* **A15 — a comment in model output.** The input side strips every ``<!-- -->`` and
|
||||
reports ``sanitize:html-comment``; the output side never looked, so a CopyPasta
|
||||
comment the model carried into its artifact gave 0 findings.
|
||||
``output:html-comment-present`` reports one a renderer hides. A comment inside a
|
||||
fenced code block or an inline code span is shown to the reader as code, so it
|
||||
is not hidden and not reported — measured: that is where nearly every comment in
|

the benign reference corpus sits.
