🛡️ Sentinel: [MEDIUM] Fix TOCTOU vulnerability in index.html generation via Atomic Move

🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
💡 Vulnerability: 파일 덮어쓰기 과정에서 REPLACE_EXISTING을 사용할 때 발생하는 Race Condition으로 인해 생성 중인 임시 파일과 실제 대상 파일(index.html)이 교체되는 순간 시간차 공격(TOCTOU)에 노출될 수 있음.
🎯 Impact: 다중 스레드/프로세스 환경에서 잘못되거나 조작된 파일이 인덱스로 제공될 수 있음.
🔧 Fix: write_index_file에서 파일을 이동할 때 기본적으로 StandardCopyOption.ATOMIC_MOVE를 사용하도록 변경하여 원자적 교체를 보장함. 파일 시스템에서 이를 지원하지 않는 환경(AtomicMoveNotSupportedException 발생)에서는 기존의 REPLACE_EXISTING 방식으로 Fallback 처리하도록 구현함.
✅ Verification: ./gradlew test jacocoTestReport를 통해 100% 테스트 커버리지 및 Fallback 동작 검증 완료.

Walkthrough

write_index_file은 임시 파일을 원자적으로 이동하고, 지원되지 않으면 일반 교체 이동으로 폴백합니다. 이동 함수를 주입할 수 있으며, 테스트는 폴백 동작과 최종 파일 내용을 검증합니다.

🌐 Web query:

According to the Java Files.move documentation, when StandardCopyOption.ATOMIC_MOVE is specified with REPLACE_EXISTING, are other options ignored, and what behavior is permitted if the target already exists?

💡 Result:

According to the official Java documentation for the Files.move method, when the StandardCopyOption.ATOMIC_MOVE option is specified, all other copy options (including REPLACE_EXISTING) are ignored [1][2]. Regarding the behavior when the target file already exists and ATOMIC_MOVE is used, the documentation states that it is implementation-specific whether the existing file is replaced or if the method fails by throwing an IOException [1][2][3]. Because the move must be performed as an atomic file system operation, the platform's native capabilities determine the outcome if a conflict exists at the target path [1][4]. If the underlying file system cannot perform the move atomically, the method will throw an AtomicMoveNotSupportedException [1][2].

🌐 Web query:

Java NIO Files.move StandardCopyOption ATOMIC_MOVE ignore REPLACE_EXISTING target already exists exception implementation specific

💡 Result:

When using the ATOMIC_MOVE option in Java's Files.move method, the behavior regarding an existing target file is explicitly implementation-specific [1][2]. According to the official Java documentation, if the ATOMIC_MOVE option is specified, all other copy options (such as REPLACE_EXISTING) are ignored [1][2]. If the target file already exists during an ATOMIC_MOVE operation, the implementation determines whether it is replaced or if the method fails by throwing an IOException [1][2]. Key points regarding this behavior: 1. Ignored Options: When ATOMIC_MOVE is used, the REPLACE_EXISTING option is explicitly ignored [1][2]. You cannot guarantee replacement by simply combining these two options. 2. Implementation Specificity: Because the outcome depends on the underlying file system and the Java implementation, you cannot rely on a consistent cross-platform behavior when a target exists during an atomic move [1][2]. 3. Atomic Constraint: If the file system cannot perform the move as an atomic operation (for example, if the source and target are on different file stores), the method will throw an AtomicMoveNotSupportedException [1][2]. 4. Non-Atomic Behavior: If you omit ATOMIC_MOVE and use only REPLACE_EXISTING, the operation is generally not atomic [1][2]. In non-atomic moves, if another process creates a file at the target path after the implementation checks for existence but before the move is finalized, a FileAlreadyExistsException may still be thrown despite the presence of REPLACE_EXISTING [1][3][4]. If you require an atomic move that fails if the target exists, or one that consistently replaces it, the Java NIO API does not provide a platform-independent way to enforce this behavior beyond the current implementation-defined limits [1][5]. Developers are advised to handle the potential IOException or AtomicMoveNotSupportedException explicitly within their application logic [1][2].

ATOMIC_MOVE를 사용할 때 기존 대상 파일 교체를 보장하지 마십시오.

Files.move에서 ATOMIC_MOVE가 지정되면 REPLACE_EXISTING 등 다른 옵션은 무시됩니다. 대상 파일이 이미 있을 때 교체 또는 IOException 발생 여부는 구현에 의존합니다. 현재 코드는 대상 파일에 따라 원자 교체 또는 폴백이 동작한다고 보이지만 문서화된 API 보장이 아닙니다.

• src/main/kotlin/html4tree/main.kt#L342-L344: ATOMIC_MOVE가 실패하는 경우를 구현 정책에 맞게 처리하고, 일반 REPLACE_EXISTING 폴백은 원자성이 낮아지는 점으로 문서화하십시오.
• src/test/kotlin/html4tree/MainTest.kt#L382-L391: 테스트 전에 기존 index.html을 만들고 원자 이동 실패 경로에서 교체 정책이 유지되는지 검증하십시오.
• .jules/sentinel.md#L92-L95: ATOMIC_MOVE가 모든 파일 시스템에서 교체를 보장한다는 표현을 제거하고, 대상 존재 시 구현별 동작을 명시하십시오.
