# ClaudeKit Blender MCP - Exhaustive Bug Investigation **Date:** 2025-11-30 **Duration:** Comprehensive security, validation, and reliability audit **Status:** COMPLETE --- ## Quick Navigation ### Executive Summaries (Start Here) - **BUGS-EXECUTIVE-SUMMARY.txt** - 15 bugs organized by severity with remediation priority - **INVESTIGATION-SUMMARY.txt** - High-level overview of scope and findings - **README.md** - Research directory guide ### Detailed Technical Report - **research/researcher-02-security-validation.md** (876 lines, 24KB) - Complete vulnerability analysis with attack scenarios - Code examples and proof-of-concept patterns - Proposed fixes with code snippets - Edge case analysis - Priority matrix for remediation ### Supporting Research - **research/researcher-01-runtime-types-memory.md** - Previous memory/type investigation --- ## Key Findings at a Glance ### Critical Issues (Immediate Risk) 1. **BUG-001** - Path traversal validation bypass (arbitrary file access) 2. **BUG-003** - Unbounded buffer in socket client (memory exhaustion DoS) ### High Severity (This Week) 3. **BUG-002** - Cache key collision via regex injection 4. **BUG-004** - Integer overflow in rate limiting 5. **BUG-005** - Regex DoS in code validation 6. **BUG-007** - Config validation bypass ### Medium Severity (This Month) 7. **BUG-006** through **BUG-012** (7 issues) ### Low Severity 13-15. Edge cases in validators --- ## Bug Severity Distribution ``` CRITICAL: 2 bugs ████ HIGH: 4 bugs ████████ MEDIUM: 7 bugs ██████████████ LOW: 2 bugs ████ ``` --- ## Affected Modules | Module | Bugs | Files | Risk | |--------|------|-------|------| | validators.ts | 6 | 185 lines | HIGH | | cache.ts | 3 | 269 lines | HIGH | | rate-limiter.ts | 3 | 247 lines | HIGH | | socket-client.ts | 2 | 177 lines | CRITICAL | | config.ts | 1 | 208 lines | HIGH | | scripting.ts | 2 | 227 lines | HIGH | | Other tools | - | 800+ lines | MEDIUM | --- ## Investigation Checklist - [x] Security vulnerabilities (injection, traversal, DoS) - [x] Input validators and schema gaps - [x] Socket client reliability (reconnection, timeout, buffers) - [x] Cache invalidation and key collision - [x] Rate limiter edge cases (overflow, race conditions) - [x] Configuration validation gaps - [x] Regular expression vulnerabilities (ReDoS) - [x] Integer overflow scenarios - [x] Buffer overflow protection - [x] Time-based race conditions --- ## Remediation Timeline ### Phase 1: IMMEDIATE (Next 24 Hours) Fix 3 critical/high issues: - Path traversal (BUG-001) - Buffer overflow (BUG-003) - Rate limit overflow (BUG-004) **Effort:** ~30 minutes (all low complexity) ### Phase 2: THIS WEEK Fix 3 high severity issues: - Cache injection (BUG-002) - ReDoS validation (BUG-005) - Config validation (BUG-007) **Effort:** ~2-3 hours ### Phase 3: THIS MONTH Fix 7 medium severity issues: - Cache TTL, socket timeout, race condition, pattern evasion, etc. - Edge cases in validators (NaN/Infinity) **Effort:** ~4-6 hours ### Phase 4: ONGOING - Replace regex-based code validation with AST parsing - Add fuzzing to CI/CD - Conduct penetration testing **Effort:** 2+ days --- ## Critical Success Factors 1. **Blender Addon Trust Level** - Affects BUG-003 priority 2. **File Size Limits** - Affects BUG-009 impact 3. **Deployment Model** - Local-only vs remote exposure 4. **Sandboxing** - Code execution security See UNRESOLVED QUESTIONS in detailed report for complete list. --- ## How to Read the Detailed Report Each bug section contains: - **Location** - File path and line numbers - **Root Cause** - Technical analysis - **Attack Vector** - How to exploit it - **Severity** - CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW - **Impact** - Real-world consequences - **Proposed Fix** - Code with solution - **Effort** - Estimated fix time --- ## Code Quality Recommendations 1. **Validation Strategy** - Use Zod more effectively (already in codebase) - Add custom validators for edge cases - Implement whitelist instead of blacklist approach 2. **Security Patterns** - Canonicalize paths before validation - Escape all user-controlled regex inputs - Add bounds checks on all buffer operations - Reset timeouts on data received 3. **Testing Strategy** - Add fuzzing for validators - Test path traversal attempts - Stress test socket with large responses - Clock skew simulation for rate limiting 4. **Code Review Focus** - Any user-controlled regex patterns - Buffer accumulation logic - Time-based calculations - Configuration parsing --- ## Files Analyzed **Utilities (6 modules, 1,356 lines):** - src/utils/validators.ts (185 lines) - 6 bugs found - src/utils/cache.ts (269 lines) - 3 bugs found - src/utils/rate-limiter.ts (247 lines) - 3 bugs found - src/utils/config.ts (208 lines) - 1 bug found - src/utils/socket-client.ts (177 lines) - 2 bugs found - src/utils/dev-tools.ts (70 lines) - 0 bugs found **Tools (10 modules, ~2,000 lines):** - src/tools/files.ts (412 lines) - src/tools/scripting.ts (227 lines) - 2 bugs found - src/tools/assets.ts (319 lines) - src/tools/external-sources.ts (100+ lines) - src/tools/import-export.ts (100+ lines) - src/tools/objects.ts, scene.ts, materials.ts, viewport.ts, index.ts **Tests:** - tests/validators.test.ts - tests/cache.test.ts - tests/rate-limiter.test.ts - tests/socket-client.test.ts - tests/config.test.ts **Total Lines Analyzed:** 3,356 lines --- ## Contact & Questions For technical details on any bug: 1.
