fix(llm-security): HIGH — obfuscated injections were reported but not stripped
stripInjection is the remote-scan indirection layer: its `sanitized` output is what an LLM agent actually reads, verbatim, via sanitized_content in the evidence package. It scanned two variants of each file — the raw text and normalizeForScan(text) — but removed matches with `sanitized.replace(match[0], ...)` against the RAW text only. For a match found in the decoded variant, match[0] IS the decoded string, which by construction does not occur in the raw text. The replace was therefore a silent no-op: the finding was reported while the encoded payload was passed to the agent untouched. Every obfuscation the normalizer exists to defeat — HTML entities, URL encoding, \u escapes, hex, base64, letter-spacing, Unicode tags — reached the agent intact. The worst case is the intended one: detection said "critical injection found" and shipped the injection along with the verdict. - Pass 1 redacts the whole source LINE whose own normalized form carries the pattern. Line granularity is deliberate: decoding is not length-preserving, so decoded match offsets cannot be mapped back onto the original text. - Pass 2 keeps the existing literal replacement and finding collection. - Residual gap, made explicit rather than silent: a payload encoded across MULTIPLE lines matches whole-text normalization but no single line, so it cannot be attributed. Those findings now carry `unstripped: true`. Whole-file redaction was considered and rejected — normalizeForScan base64-decodes any long blob, so a benign asset could blank an entire file's evidence. - stripInjection exported via __testing, and main() is now behind the standard isMain guard (copied from dashboard-aggregator.mjs) so importing the module does not execute the CLI. CLI verified unchanged against the evil-project-health fixture: 7 files, 6 injection findings, risk_level critical. This boundary had no direct test coverage before this commit. npm test: 1890/1890 green (1884 + 6 new).

// content-extractor-strip.test.mjs — Regression tests for the remote-scan
|
||||
// injection boundary.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// stripInjection returns { sanitized, findings }. `sanitized` is what reaches
|
||||
// the LLM agent (verbatim, via sanitized_content in the evidence package), so a
|
||||
// pattern that is DETECTED but not REMOVED defeats the entire defense: the
|
||||
// report says "injection found" while the payload is handed to the agent anyway.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// The original implementation replaced `match[0]` in the raw text. For matches
|
||||
// found only in the decoded variant, match[0] is the DECODED string, which does
|
||||
// not occur in the raw text — so String.replace was a silent no-op.
