s.esmaeiliandClaude Opus 5 fdf833565f parity(api,apps): security hotfix stage 1 - close unauthenticated write paths
Authorised by rulings D7 and T1-T3 in docs/parity/DECISIONS.md. This is the
CLAUDE.md section 3 carve-out: matching the reference here would keep a money
write path open to anonymous callers.

Closed, each behind the rid the legacy vocabulary already had:
  GET   accounting/customers/:id/balance    -> wallet.list
  POST  accounting/customers/:id/reconcile  -> wallet.charge
  POST  accounting/repayments/gold          -> document.create
  POST  accounting/repayments/rial          -> document.create
  POST  accounting/entries/:id/confirm      -> document.list.confirm
  PATCH orders/:id/status                   -> order.list.sts.submit

Four of the accounting routes WRITE to the ledger. The order-status route was
worse in kind: its DTO takes a client-supplied actorAdminUserId, so an
anonymous caller could move any order and pin it on any admin. It had no
caller - the admin panel posts to admin/orders/status.

GET /customers kept its public status (both apps' login still matches the
phone number in the browser) but now selects only id/mobile/isActive/
isArchived. It previously returned every active customer's full name, national
code, both debts, credit limit and the URLs of their identity-document scans.
CustomerSummary narrowed in BOTH user apps in the same commit, per the
v1/v2 parity rule.

Not changed: /uploads stays public per ruling T2. The filename check requested
alongside it passed unchanged - md5(time + name + uuid), no directory listing.

Tests: apps/api/scripts/auth-smoke.sh asserts 401 without a token, 403 with a
low-privilege token (ut 88, 5 unrelated rids) and pass-through for a super
admin on every closed route, plus that the public routes still answer 200 and
that GET /customers exposes only the four login fields. 23 passed, 0 failed
against a live server. Typecheck clean on api, user-app and user-app-v2.

Raw Blame History

DECISIONS — user rulings on the parity project

Binding decisions made by the user. They override defaults and survive context loss. Referenced from PROTECTED.md and PROGRESS.md.

Date Phase Decisions
2026-09-21 Phase 0 gate D0–D5, D6–D8 (urgent), D9–D11, D12 (method change)

D0 — First name / last name: split the column (option الف)

Ruling. Add real firstName / lastName columns to Customer via an additive migration.

Requirements:

  1. Additive migration only — nothing dropped.
  2. Backfill existing rows: first token of fullName → firstName, the rest → lastName.
  3. Rows whose fullName has more than two tokens must be written to a report for manual review (they cannot be split safely).
  4. fullName is NOT removed. It stays and is kept in sync as firstName + " " + lastName so existing code keeps working.
  5. toRow() must return the real fname / lname, not fullName / ''.
  6. Fix every consumer: singleCustomer.vue, bulkCustomer.vue, ReagentCustomer.vue, and anywhere a name is displayed, searched or sorted. Remove the split(' ') fallback in singleCustomer.vue.
  7. Check the same defect on AdminUser (sales expert) and on registration / profile in user-app and user-app-v2.
  8. Show the migration file and the command, and get approval, before running it.

Evidence for the defect: reference has two columns (henza_server/database/migrations/2020_10_01_120430_customers_table.php:18-19); target collapses them (apps/api/src/modules/admin-customers/admin-customers.service.ts:231-233 returns fname: c.fullName, lname: '').

D1 — Admin auth: keep the target stricter

The reference leaves all ~215 admin routes unauthenticated (henza_server/routes/admin.php:12,272). The target's JWT + 144-rid enforcement stands, recorded as an accepted deviation.

Additional requirement: build a complete mapping matrix "every reference admin operation ↔ its permission key (rid) in the target", so no operation is left without an equivalent permission. Explain the 172 (reference) vs 174 (target) unique key difference.

D2 — Domain scope: audit only what the reference has

Confirmed. Do not manufacture rows for buy/sell gold, deposit, withdraw, transfer, KYC levels, price sockets or payment callbacks — none exist in the reference (00-INVENTORY.md §0).

Target-only capabilities (e.g. the dual-currency ledger, gram/rial debt) are listed with status ➕ and left untouched. Ask when unsure.

D3 — The 5 missing user-app screens: build them in Phase 2

/report, /report/detail, /ChildOrder, /customerChoice, /complete_profile are built in both apps, each in its own design language, plus whatever backend they need.

Also brought to reference behaviour in Phase 2:

  • route analytics (POST /log/create/{key}, GET /log/update/{id})
  • the isLoaded guard
  • the sts_verify_step_two guard on completeProfile
  • guest behaviour: toast «ابتدا وارد شوید» + redirect to home (not a redirect to /login)
  • v2's missing cart stock ceiling (capQty/maxQty) must match v1 and the reference

D4 — Reference bugs: replicate behaviour, not breakage

  • Broken or destructive reference behaviour is not ported — logged only.
  • Business behaviour, calculations, rounding and messages must match the reference exactly.
  • Every deliberate non-replication gets a matrix note: «عمداً تکرار نشد — ISSUE #n».
  • The price formula is the live version at henza_server/app/Models/ProductVariant.php:183-190 — not the commented-out ones above it.
  • Write a unit test for it with sample numbers and compare against the reference formula computed by hand.

D5 — Stray root folder: leave it for now

gold-banking-monorepo/user-app-v2/ is logged in ISSUES.md (DEAD-03). At the very end, after verifying nothing references it, delete it in its own commit.


D6 — URGENT: OTP must be verified (exception to "log only", per CLAUDE.md §3)

The reference does verify the OTP, so the target accepting any code is a parity gap, not just a security issue. Fix it to match the reference: code matching, expiry, and attempt limits.

Reference implementation (henza_server/app/Http/Controllers/Api/ApiMobileController.php:39-78):

Step Reference behaviour Line
Send userAuth validates username, finds an active customer by mobile, generates rand(1000,9999), stores it in customer.send_password, sends it by SMS :39-49
Verify userVerfiy validates username + password; if faTOen(password) != customer.send_password → HTTP 422 :51-57
Token issues api_token = Str::random(60) only if the customer doesn't already have one :60-62
Digits the code is normalised through Utility::faTOen() (Persian → English digits) on both send and verify :42,56

⚠️ Note for the matrix: the reference has no expiry and no attempt limit — send_password is a plain column that stays valid indefinitely. D6 asks for expiry and attempt limits, which go beyond the reference. Recorded as a deliberate, user-requested improvement; the parity row is the code match itself.

D7 — URGENT: @Public() routes that write to the ledger

Show the exact list with file paths and what the reference did for each, then protect them after user approval. See §"@Public audit" below.

D8 — URGENT: the login customer-list leak

Identify whether it is reference or target, and what data leaks. See §"Login leak" below.


D9 — percent: trace before acting

Done — see 00-INVENTORY.md and the trace summary delivered to the user. Key finding: the target's implementation is wrong. percent is a real column on the customer in the reference, not a derived value from the referring agent.

D10 — Sales expert: the 5 missing fields

The move to AdminUser is accepted. For ncode, phone, city_id, gram_level, reagent_id: find where the reference uses each for type=1 (list, filter, report, order, calculation). Fields that are genuinely used must be added — proposed shape: a SalesExpertProfile table related to AdminUser. Fields with no use are listed for the user to decide.

D11 — singleCustomer.vue: migrate to the diff-send pattern

Bring it in line with bulkCustomer.vue and ReagentCustomer.vue. Diff-send is recorded as an accepted deviation from the reference (which sends every field on every save).


D12 — METHOD CHANGE for Phase 1 (and Phase 2)

1. The matrix is field-by-field, not page-by-page. Every form field (name, type, required, validation, message, default), every table column, every filter, every button — and for each one, the client field name ↔ API field name ↔ DB column, on both sides.

2. A round-trip test is mandatory per entity:

create with every field populated
  → open the edit form, assert every field is correctly populated
  → save with no changes, assert the DB row is byte-identical
  → change exactly one field, assert only that field changed

Run it for the sales expert too.

3. Both rules are to be added to the reference-parity-audit skill (Step C and Step E) so Phase 2 inherits them.


T1 — Customer authentication: a separate JWT strategy (option الف)

Approved. Conditions:

  1. Separate secrets — customer tokens are signed with JWT_CUSTOMER_SECRET, admin tokens with JWT_SECRET.
  2. A typ claim is checked in both guards — typ: 'admin' vs typ: 'customer'.
  3. Mandatory cross-token tests: a customer token on any admin route → 401; an admin token on a customer route → rejected, unless deliberately allowed.
  4. Token lifetime and logout must be compared against the reference and recorded here (see below).
  5. No IDOR — customer routes that return personal data derive the customer from the token, never from an id in the request.

Reference comparison — token lifetime and logout

Aspect Reference Target (current) Decision
Customer token api_token = Str::random(60), a random opaque string stored on the customer row (ApiMobileController.php:60-62) none new customer JWT
Expiry none — the reference token never expires; it is reused on every login if already set admin JWT JWT_EXPIRES_IN, default 12h customer JWT gets an explicit expiry (deliberate improvement over the reference)
Logout the reference has no logout endpoint; the app drops the token client-side apps clear localStorage keep client-side clear; note that a stolen token stays valid until expiry
Rotation the reference issues a new token only if api_token is null — logging in twice returns the same token forever n/a issue a fresh token on every verify

The last three rows are deliberate improvements over the reference, approved by the user in the same message that approved D6. Recorded so the matrix does not later flag them as parity gaps.

T2 — Uploaded files stay public

Ruling: /uploads is not touched. No allow-list, no signed URLs, and the "private folder" stage is dropped.

Recorded verbatim at the user's request:

«فایل‌های آپلودی شامل مدارک عمداً عمومی هستند — تصمیم مالک پروژه» (Uploaded files, including identity documents, are deliberately public — the project owner's decision.)

The light check the user asked for — result: ✅ already correct

Check Result Evidence
Filenames unguessable? Yes. md5(Date.now() + originalname + randomUUID()) + the original extension src/modules/admin-uploads/admin-uploads.service.ts:53
Sequential or original name on disk? No. originalName is kept only as a DB column, never as the filename admin-uploads.service.ts:62
Directory listing? No. PublicUploadsController only resolves a single :filename, and resolveStoredUpload() rejects ./.. and anything resolving outside the upload dir public-uploads.controller.ts:17, upload-path.ts:34-49

Nothing to change. No existing files were moved.

T3 — Two-stage hotfix

Approved, with the condition that GET /customers be checked first.

Check result: the apps are dependent on it. Its only consumer is LoginView.vue:131 in both apps, and CustomerSummary is used nowhere else (verified by grep). The fields actually read are mobile, isActive, isArchived, then session.login(id, mobile) — four fields.

So per the ruling: stage 1 strips the sensitive fields and keeps the route; stage 2 removes the route when login moves to OTP.


Urgent investigation results

percent — full trace (D9)

In the reference, percent is a real column on the customer

Fact Evidence
Column exists on customers database/migrations/2020_10_19_153228_customer_add.php:32 — $table->double('percent')->default(0);
Mass-assignable app/Models/Customer.php:31
Defaulted to 3 for app-registered customers app/Http/Controllers/Adm/AdminController.php:338 — $input['percent'] = 3;
Required when an admin creates a wholesale customer AdminController.php:354 — 'percent'=>'required'
Selected into the wholesale customer list Adm/MajorCustomerController.php:36
Shown in a report column «درصد» Adm/ReportController.php:137

What it actually does — it shifts the customer's making-charge filter

app/Http/Controllers/Api/ApiMobileController.php:391-396:

if (sizeof($limit_percent) > 0 and auth('api-customer')->check()) {
    $limit_percent[0] = $limit_percent[0] - auth('api-customer')->user()->percent;
    $limit_percent[1] = $limit_percent[1] - auth('api-customer')->user()->percent;
    $product->whereHas('variants', fn($q) => $q->whereBetween('percentage_pay', $limit_percent));
}

And it shifts the filter bounds the app is told to display, at login (ApiMobileController.php:76-77):

$customer['filterPercentPay'][] = strval(ProductVariant::min('percentage_pay') + $customer['percent']);
$customer['filterPercentPay'][] = strval(ProductVariant::max('percentage_pay') + $customer['percent']);

So customer.percent is a per-customer making-charge offset: the UI shows percentage_pay + percent, and the filter subtracts it again before querying.

What it does NOT do

It is not part of the price formula. The formula's extra percent comes from a global config row, not from the customer:

  • app/Models/ProductVariant.php:50 — ConfigStatic::where('key','product_price_extra_percent')->first()['val'] ?? 7
  • app/Models/ProductVariant.php:183 — ($this->percentage_pay + static::$product_price_extra_percent)

There is a separate, unrelated ConfigStatic key also called percent, used for the cashback/wallet rule (AdminController.php:903,994; Controller.php:203) — value = total_weight * (percent/100). Do not confuse the two.

A third unrelated percent is a per-order-item field in wholesale orders (Adm/MajorOrderController.php:220): w = rash_weight + rash_weight * (percent/100). That one comes from the request, not from the customer.

The target is wrong

apps/api/src/modules/admin-customers/admin-customers.service.ts:245:

// legacy `percent` came from the referring agent's commission rate
percent: c.referredByAgent?.wagePercent ?? null,

That comment is incorrect — the reference reads customer.percent, its own column. Consequences:

  1. Read is wrong — it shows the agent's commission, not the customer's offset.
  2. Write is missing — update() never handles data.percent (admin-customers.service.ts:600-658), so editing the field in the admin form does nothing.
  3. The create default is missing — the reference sets percent = 3 for app-registered customers and requires it for admin-created wholesale customers.
  4. The app-side effect is missing — no filterPercentPay offset anywhere in user-app / user-app-v2.

Proposed reconstruction (needs user approval — it is a schema change)

  1. Add makingChargeOffsetPercent Decimal @default(0) to Customer (additive migration). Name it clearly so it is never confused with the two other percents; map it to the legacy key percent in toRow().
  2. toRow() returns that column, not referredByAgent.wagePercent. Remove the incorrect comment.
  3. create(): default 3 on the app-registration path; require it on the admin wholesale path (reference AdminController.php:354).
  4. update(): handle data.percent.
  5. Catalogue filter: subtract the customer's offset from the percentage_pay bounds before querying, and return shifted filterPercentPay bounds at login — matching ApiMobileController.php:391-396,76-77.
  6. The referring agent's wagePercent stays where it belongs (the agent), and is not exposed through the customer form.

@Public() audit (D7) — every unauthenticated route in the target

15 routes across 7 controllers. Verified by reading each controller.

🔴 Group A — ledger writes (the ones the user flagged)

apps/api/src/modules/accounting/accounting.controller.ts — @Public() on the whole controller (:7), prefix accounting (:8):

# Route Line Effect Reference equivalent
A1 GET accounting/customers/:customerId/balance :12 reads any customer's balance Adm/WalletController — reference had auth commented out too (routes/admin.php:12)
A2 POST accounting/customers/:customerId/reconcile :17 writes — reconciles a balance same: unauthenticated in reference
A3 POST accounting/repayments/gold :22 writes — records a gold repayment same
A4 POST accounting/repayments/rial :27 writes — records a rial repayment same
A5 POST accounting/entries/:entryId/confirm :32 writes — confirms a ledger entry same

In the reference these were admin routes in routes/admin.php, and that whole file's auth:api wrapper is commented out — so they were unauthenticated there too. The target faithfully reproduced that. Under D1 the target is supposed to be stricter, so these five are the clearest violation of D1 still standing.

Recommendation: A1–A5 are admin operations. Put them behind the admin JWT guard with the matching rid (the wallet/document rids from acl.constants.ts). Awaiting your approval — this is the list you asked for.

🟠 Group B — order writes

apps/api/src/modules/orders/orders.controller.ts — @Public() at :7, prefix orders:

# Route Line Note Reference
B1 POST orders :12 customer places an order ApiMobileController::setOrder — was authenticated via auth('api-customer'); it reads auth()->id() at :533
B2 GET orders/:id :17 reads any order by id same guard in reference
B3 PATCH orders/:id/status :22 changes order status; DTO accepts a client-supplied actorAdminUserId admin operation in reference

B1/B2 differ from the reference in kind: the reference's customer endpoints sat behind the api-customer guard and derived the customer from the token. The target has no customer session at all, so it takes customerId from the request body. That is why they are public. Fixing this properly means building customer auth — which is exactly what D6 starts.

B3 is the worst of the three: it lets an anonymous caller move an order's status and attribute the action to any admin.

🟢 Group C — genuinely public reads (match the reference's public storefront)

# Route File:line Reference
C1 GET customers customers/customers.controller.ts:10 see the leak below
C2 GET customers/:id :15 —
C3 GET customers/:id/orders :20 —
C4 GET customers/:id/ledger-entries :25 —
C5 GET catalog/products catalog/catalog.controller.ts:10 reference storefront was public (routes/site.php) ✅
C6 GET pricing/latest pricing/pricing.controller.ts:10 reference /price was public ✅
C7 GET home/slider admin-misc/public-slider.controller.ts:21 reference mobile_main_slider config, public ✅
C8 GET uploads/:filename admin-uploads/public-uploads.controller.ts:17 reference served uploads statically ✅

C5–C8 are legitimately public. C1–C4 are not — they expose customer records.


Login leak (D8) — it is in the target, and it is worse than "a list"

Where: target only. apps/user-app and apps/user-app-v2 both call GET /api/customers at login and match the phone number in the browser.

What leaks: GET /customers is @Public() (customers/customers.controller.ts:10) and returns every active, non-archived customer with these fields (customers/customers.service.ts:6-23, :44-50):

Field Sensitive?
id, createdAt, updatedAt low
fullName 🔴 PII
mobile 🔴 PII
nationalCode 🔴 national ID number
cityId, referredByAgentId medium
goldCreditLimitGrams, goldDebtGrams, fiatDebtRial 🔴 financial position of every customer
verificationStep, isActive, isArchived medium
nationalIdImageUrl, businessLicenseUrl, shopImageUrl 🔴 URLs of ID-document scans

passwordHash is correctly excluded — the select list is explicit and the source comment says so (customers.service.ts:5). So no password material leaks.

Everything else does. Any anonymous visitor can fetch the full customer book — names, mobiles, national ID numbers, debts, and links to identity-document images (and GET uploads/:filename is public too, so those links resolve).

In the reference this was not possible. Login was POST userAuth → SMS code → POST userVerfiy (ApiMobileController.php:39-78): the server looked the customer up by mobile and returned only that one customer after the code matched. There was no "download everyone and match on the client" step.

Root cause: the target has no customer authentication, so the client does the lookup. D6 (real OTP) is the fix for both problems at once — once POST auth/otp/verify returns the authenticated customer, GET /customers can be taken off the public surface entirely.
