MINOR fixes:
- docs/DESIGN-57-yaml-persona.md: fix Error Cases table entry to reflect
custom AST walk (checkYAMLDepth) instead of stale library-level reference
- review/persona.go: add EOF check after JSON decode to reject trailing
garbage after a valid JSON object (prevents silent acceptance of malformed
input like '{"name":"x"}garbage')
- review/persona_test.go: add TestJSONTrailingContentRejected test
NIT fixes:
- review/persona.go: add default case to checkYAMLDepth switch with
explanatory comment about scalar leaf nodes
- review/persona.go: document AnchorNode depth+1 conservative asymmetry
- review/persona.go: simplify redundant if-guard in ListBuiltinPersonas
- Move nodeCount increment after cycle detection to avoid over-counting
cyclic references (sonnet #2)
- Use underscores in test case names used as filenames (sonnet #3)
- Fix function comment: 'prevent silent data loss' → 'prevent confusing
behavior where additional documents are silently ignored' (sonnet #4)
- Mark design doc pseudocode as historical since implementation uses
goccy/go-yaml ast.Node, not gopkg.in/yaml.v3 yaml.Node (sonnet #5)
The global 'seen' set allowed anchored subtrees validated at a shallow
depth to be skipped when later referenced via alias at a greater depth.
This could let effective nesting exceed MaxYAMLDepth, enabling DoS.
Fix: replace the single 'seen' set with two tracking maps:
- validated (node -> min depth): only short-circuits when current depth
<= previously validated depth; re-checks at deeper contexts.
- visiting (node -> bool): per-path recursion stack for true cycle
detection (breaks alias loops without suppressing depth checks).
Add TestYAMLAliasDepthBypass that constructs a document with an
anchored 15-level subtree referenced via alias under 6 levels of
nesting, verifying the combined effective depth (22) is rejected.
Addresses security-review-bot findings on review #2774.
MAJOR fixes:
- Remove false security claim about gopkg.in/yaml.v3 having built-in depth protection
- Add explicit YAML depth limiting via yaml.Node API (MaxYAMLDepth=20)
- Add file size limit for persona files (MaxPersonaFileSize=64KB)
- Add test for deeply nested YAML rejection
MINOR fixes:
- Add sort.Strings to ListBuiltinPersonas for deterministic ordering
- Update design doc to reflect actual library used (gopkg.in/yaml.v3)
- Update README: 'Zero dependencies' → 'Minimal dependencies'
- Add test for file size limit
- Add test for sorted persona list
- Add gopkg.in/yaml.v3 dependency (approved in CONVENTIONS.md)
- Update parsePersona to detect format by file extension
- Support both .yaml and .yml extensions (case-insensitive)
- Convert built-in personas to YAML format
- Add comprehensive tests for YAML parsing
- Update README with YAML examples and documentation
YAML provides cleaner multi-line strings via literal block scalars
and supports comments, making persona definitions more readable.
JSON remains supported for backwards compatibility.
