# 🔒 CLI Localhost-Only Connection Enforcement
|
|
|
|
## ✅ Implementation Complete
|
|
|
|
Successfully implemented **localhost-only connection enforcement** for the AITBC CLI tool, ensuring all service connections are restricted to localhost ports regardless of configuration or environment variables.
|
|
|
|
## 🎯 What Was Implemented
|
|
|
|
### **Configuration-Level Enforcement**
|
|
- **Automatic URL Validation**: All service URLs are validated to ensure localhost-only
|
|
- **Runtime Enforcement**: Non-localhost URLs are automatically converted to localhost equivalents
|
|
- **Multiple Validation Points**: Enforcement occurs at initialization, file loading, and environment variable override
|
|
|
|
### **Enforced Services**
|
|
- **Coordinator API**: `http://localhost:8000` (default)
|
|
- **Blockchain RPC**: `http://localhost:8006` (default)
|
|
- **Wallet Daemon**: `http://localhost:8002` (default)
|
|
|
|
## 🛠️ Technical Implementation
|
|
|
|
### **Configuration Class Enhancement**
|
|
```python
|
|
def _validate_localhost_urls(self):
|
|
"""Validate that all service URLs point to localhost"""
|
|
localhost_prefixes = ["http://localhost:", "http://127.0.0.1:", "https://localhost:", "https://127.0.0.1:"]
|
|
|
|
urls_to_check = [
|
|
("coordinator_url", self.coordinator_url),
|
|
("blockchain_rpc_url", self.blockchain_rpc_url),
|
|
("wallet_url", self.wallet_url)
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
for url_name, url in urls_to_check:
|
|
if not any(url.startswith(prefix) for prefix in localhost_prefixes):
|
|
# Force to localhost if not already
|
|
if url_name == "coordinator_url":
|
|
self.coordinator_url = "http://localhost:8000"
|
|
elif url_name == "blockchain_rpc_url":
|
|
self.blockchain_rpc_url = "http://localhost:8006"
|
|
elif url_name == "wallet_url":
|
|
self.wallet_url = "http://localhost:8002"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### **Validation Points**
|
|
1. **During Initialization**: `__post_init__()` method
|
|
2. **After File Loading**: `load_from_file()` method
|
|
3. **After Environment Variables**: Applied after all overrides
|
|
|
|
## 📁 Files Updated
|
|
|
|
### **Core Configuration**
|
|
- `aitbc_cli/config/__init__.py` - Added localhost validation and enforcement
|
|
|
|
### **Test Fixtures**
|
|
- `tests/fixtures/mock_config.py` - Updated production config to use localhost
|
|
- `configs/multichain_config.yaml` - Updated node endpoints to localhost
|
|
- `examples/client_enhanced.py` - Updated default coordinator to localhost
|
|
|
|
## 🧪 Validation Results
|
|
|
|
### **✅ Configuration Testing**
|
|
```
|
|
🔒 CLI Localhost-Only Connection Validation
|
|
==================================================
|
|
|
|
📋 Configuration URLs:
|
|
Coordinator: http://localhost:8000
|
|
Blockchain RPC: http://127.0.0.1:8006
|
|
Wallet: http://127.0.0.1:8002
|
|
|
|
✅ SUCCESS: All configuration URLs are localhost-only!
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### **✅ CLI Command Testing**
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ python -m aitbc_cli.main config show
|
|
coordinator_url http://localhost:8000
|
|
api_key ***REDACTED***
|
|
timeout 30
|
|
config_file /home/oib/.aitbc/config.yaml
|
|
|
|
$ python -m aitbc_cli.main wallet daemon configure
|
|
wallet_url http://127.0.0.1:8002
|
|
timeout 30
|
|
suggestion Use AITBC_WALLET_URL environment variable or config file to change settings
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 🔄 Enforcement Behavior
|
|
|
|
### **Automatic Conversion**
|
|
Any non-localhost URL is automatically converted to the appropriate localhost equivalent:
|
|
|
|
| Original URL | Converted URL |
|
|
|-------------|---------------|
|
|
| `https://api.aitbc.dev` | `http://localhost:8000` |
|
|
| `https://rpc.aitbc.dev` | `http://localhost:8006` |
|
|
| `https://wallet.aitbc.dev` | `http://localhost:8002` |
|
|
| `http://10.1.223.93:8545` | `http://localhost:8000` |
|
|
|
|
### **Accepted Localhost Formats**
|
|
- `http://localhost:*`
|
|
- `http://127.0.0.1:*`
|
|
- `https://localhost:*`
|
|
- `https://127.0.0.1:*`
|
|
|
|
## 🛡️ Security Benefits
|
|
|
|
### **Network Isolation**
|
|
- **External Connection Prevention**: CLI cannot connect to external services
|
|
- **Local Development Only**: Ensures CLI only works with local services
|
|
- **Configuration Safety**: Even misconfigured files are forced to localhost
|
|
|
|
### **Development Environment**
|
|
- **Consistent Behavior**: All CLI operations use predictable localhost ports
|
|
- **No External Dependencies**: CLI operations don't depend on external services
|
|
- **Testing Reliability**: Tests run consistently regardless of external service availability
|
|
|
|
## 📋 User Experience
|
|
|
|
### **Transparent Operation**
|
|
- **No User Action Required**: Enforcement happens automatically
|
|
- **Existing Commands Work**: All existing CLI commands continue to work
|
|
- **No Configuration Changes**: Users don't need to modify their configurations
|
|
|
|
### **Behavior Changes**
|
|
- **External URLs Ignored**: External URLs in config files are silently converted
|
|
- **Environment Variables Override**: Even environment variables are subject to enforcement
|
|
- **Error Prevention**: Connection errors to external services are prevented
|
|
|
|
## 🔧 Configuration Override (Development Only)
|
|
|
|
For development purposes, the enforcement can be temporarily disabled by modifying the `_validate_localhost_urls` method, but this is **not recommended** for production use.
|
|
