Once a fingerprint canary's HTTP beacon passes all 4 validation layers
and the trigger row lands, the token is immediately set to state=revoked
and canary.<id>.revoked is published on the bus. The slug lookup is
tightened to only return planted tokens, so subsequent requests to the
same URL silently return the transparent GIF without persisting anything
(stealth posture preserved). Plain http/dns canaries with no
fingerprint_nonce are not affected.
Changes:
- sqlmodel_repo/canary.py: add state == "planted" filter to
get_canary_token_by_slug so revoked slugs resolve to None
- worker.py: after record_canary_trigger, if parsed_fp survived all
layers and token has a fingerprint_nonce, call
update_canary_token_state("revoked") + publish CANARY_REVOKED; errors
are best-effort (trigger row already landed)
- test_worker_http.py: assert state=revoked in test_fp_valid_nonce_persists;
new test_fp_deregisters_slug_after_valid_hit (second hit records nothing);
new test_plain_http_canary_not_deregistered (env_file stays planted)
Adds per-mint nonce gating, structural shape validation, mint UUID
consistency checks, and a per-(token, IP) rate limiter to the canary
worker so attackers who extract a canary from a decky filesystem cannot
poison fingerprint forensics by replaying or forging ?d= submissions.
Changes:
base.py
fingerprint_nonce: Optional[str] added to CanaryArtifact so generators
can surface the nonce to the cultivator without coupling the generator
directly to DB code.
obfuscator.py
nonce_for(callback_token, mint_uuid): HMAC-SHA256 keyed on
DECNET_CANARY_FINGERPRINT_SECRET, truncated to 16 hex chars.
FingerprintSecretMissing raised at mint time if env var is unset.
render_fingerprint_js() now accepts nonce= and substitutes MINT_NONCE.
fingerprint_payload.js
New MINT_NONCE placeholder. Appended as &k= on all beacon URLs (bare-open,
single-shot, chunked). Using &k= avoids colliding with &n= (chunk total).
fingerprint_html.py / fingerprint_svg.py
Derive nonce via nonce_for() and pass to render_fingerprint_js(). Set
artifact.fingerprint_nonce so the cultivator can persist it.
cultivator.py
Passes fingerprint_nonce into create_canary_token() when present on the
artifact; NULL for all non-fingerprint generators.
canary.py (model)
fingerprint_nonce: Optional[str] = Field(default=None, max_length=16)
added to CanaryToken. None for non-fingerprint tokens.
worker.py
_extract_fingerprint now returns (meta_dict, parsed_fp) tuple.
_record_hit accepts parsed_fp + raw_nonce and runs 4 layers after
token lookup: nonce match, shape check, mint UUID consistency, rate limit.
Each failure sets _fp_invalid_* flag and drops structured _fp.
Trigger row always lands regardless.
tests/canary/conftest.py
Session-scoped autouse fixture sets DECNET_CANARY_FINGERPRINT_SECRET so
fingerprint generator and worker tests work offline.
tests
5 new worker HTTP tests and 2 new generator tests covering each
validation layer.
The fingerprint canaries' obfuscator shells out to a Node helper that
require()s javascript-obfuscator. Without this commit, a fresh
pip install decnet would land the .py modules but not the .js helper /
package.json, and there'd be no documented way to provision Node side.
* pyproject.toml - extend tool.setuptools.package-data to ship
canary/_obfuscate_helper.js, canary/fingerprint_payload.js, and
canary/package.json with the wheel.
* decnet/cli/canary.py - new "decnet canary-install-toolchain"
subcommand. Resolves decnet.canary.__file__'s dir, runs
npm install --omit=dev there, exits non-zero with a clear message
if npm is missing or install fails. Idempotent - safe to call
every API service start.
* deploy/decnet-api.service.j2 - non-fatal ExecStartPre that calls
the new subcommand. Leading '-' so a missing Node toolchain only
degrades fingerprint canaries (loud at mint time) without keeping
the API from booting.
* tests/canary/test_cli.py - registration smoke test, missing-npm
exit path, and a mocked-subprocess test asserting the right argv
and cwd land on npm.
Realism cultivator already has a broad except Exception around
cultivate() in scheduler.py:195-211, so a missing toolchain on a
host running the realism tick degrades to an inert noise file with
no extra plumbing.
The fingerprint payload beacons fingerprint data as base64url JSON in
GET query params: ?o=1 for the bare-open beacon, ?d=<blob> for a
single-shot dump, or ?s/i/n/d=<chunk> for chunked dumps. Until now
those params were buried inside request_path; consumers had to parse
the URL themselves.
Worker now extracts them in _extract_fingerprint and merges into
raw_headers under reserved _fp* keys:
* _fp_open — bare-open marker
* _fp — decoded fingerprint dict (single-shot path)
* _fp_sid/idx/total/chunk — chunked metadata + raw base64 (reassembly
is a downstream concern, not the worker's job)
* _fp_decode_error / _fp_oversize — failure markers for trash dumps
Per-chunk size capped at 8KB so an attacker spamming /c/<known_slug>
can't inflate trigger rows indefinitely. Decode failures degrade
gracefully — the trigger row still records the hit, just with a
_fp_decode_error flag instead of structured fingerprint data.
Tests cover the single-shot decode, bare-open flag, chunked metadata,
malformed input, and oversize drop paths.
Two new synthesised-artifact generators that bake the obfuscated
fingerprint payload into plausible-looking decoy files:
* fingerprint_html — a mundane "Internal Asset Directory" page with a
small table of fake hosts; the obfuscated payload is inlined at the
bottom of <body>. Visible content (row pool slice, sync timestamp)
also varies per mint via SHA-256-derived stable ints, so two
extracted canaries don't diff to zero even on the rendered surface.
* fingerprint_svg — standalone SVG with an embedded <script> CDATA
block. SVG <script> only fires for top-level loads / <object> /
<iframe>; <img>-referenced renders are safely inert.
Both derive the mint UUID via uuid.uuid5 from the callback token, so
re-mints are byte-identical (preserving the generator determinism
contract) AND the same token produces the same mint UUID across HTML
and SVG variants — the worker can correlate beacons across artifact
shapes.
Wired into the factory + KNOWN_GENERATORS, default placement paths
under ~/Documents/asset_directory.html and ~/Documents/network_topology.svg
for both linux and windows personas. Tests cover determinism, per-token
divergence, structural validity (DOCTYPE/SVG headers), and that the
beacon URL stays inside the obfuscated string array (not in plaintext).
The two new entries skip in test_generators.py when Node toolchain is
absent so bare CI checkouts still pass.
Adds the load-bearing primitives for obfuscated browser-fingerprinting
canaries. Step 3 (HTML/SVG generators) and step 4 (worker-side
fingerprint ingestion) build on top of these.
* decnet/canary/obfuscator.py - javascript-obfuscator wrapper. Seed
and polymorphic config bits both derive from the callback token, so
output is byte-identical for the same mint (preserving the generator
determinism contract from base.py) and structurally distinct across
mints.
* decnet/canary/fingerprint_payload.js - port of canary-self-test.html
with the rendering UI stripped. Two placeholders (BEACON_URL,
MINT_UUID) substituted before obfuscation. MVP beacon strategy:
bare-open GET pixel first, then base64url-encoded fingerprint as
query params on subsequent GETs (chunked above ~6KB) so the existing
worker records hits before step-4 lands.
* decnet/canary/_obfuscate_helper.js - Node subprocess helper that
reads code+options JSON from stdin and writes obfuscated JS to
stdout. Vendored javascript-obfuscator under decnet/canary/.
* tests/canary/test_obfuscator.py - determinism, per-mint divergence,
template substitution, Node syntax check, error path.
Extracts the docker-exec-with-base64-stdin pattern out of canary/planter
and orchestrator/drivers/ssh into a shared decnet.decky_io package.
Both consumers now delegate; the canary planter test still proves the
contract end-to-end.
Adds POST/DELETE /api/v1/deckies/files for arbitrary file drops.
Container resolution is shared with the canary path: topology_id absent
means fleet (<name>-ssh), present routes through resolve_decky_container
which picks <name>-ssh when the topology decky exposes ssh, else the
topology base container decnet_t_<id8>_<name>.
Path validation rejects relative paths and '..' traversal at the request
model layer. Bad base64 → 400; unknown topology → 404; decky not in
topology → 422; docker exec failure → 409.
Topology deploys now plant the configured canary baseline set on every
decky in the topology, mirroring the fleet-deploy hook. Containers are
resolved via resolve_topology_container — <decky>-ssh when the decky
exposes an ssh service, else the topology base container
decnet_t_<id8>_<decky>.
The planter's plant/revoke/seed_baseline grow an optional container=
kwarg; default preserves the fleet <name>-ssh resolution.
