Bug Summary

Title: fix(security): sanitize module name extracted from git URL to prevent path traversal

Actual behavior: The code has a bug related to: fix(security): sanitize module name extracted from git URL to prevent path traversal

Expected behavior: The code should handle this case correctly: fix(security): sanitize module name extracted from git URL to prevent path traversal

Repro steps:

  1. Reproduce by triggering the affected code path

Root Cause

The issue is related to: fix(security): sanitize module name extracted from git URL to prevent path traversal. The code path needs proper handling for this case.

Fix

Applied fix to address: fix(security): sanitize module name extracted from git URL to prevent path traversal

Approach: fix(security): sanitize module name extracted from git URL to prevent path traversal

Before (The Bug)

-- a/src/spark_cli/cli.py
    return last or "module"

After (The Fix)

def _sanitize_module_name(name: str) -> str:
    """Remove path traversal sequences from a module name to prevent directory escaping."""
    # Strip path separators and traversal sequences

Testing

Verified the fix resolves the issue. No regressions detected.

Files Changed

File Change Summary
src/spark_cli/cli.py Modified

Duplicate Notes

Checked all open and closed PRs for this repository. No existing PR addresses this specific issue.

Risk Notes

  • Surface changed: fix(security)
  • Why safe: Minimal, focused change. No secrets, no network, no auth surface.
  • What reviewers must verify: That the fix resolves the issue without breaking existing functionality.

…t URL to prevent path traversal

Added _sanitize_module_name() to strip path separators and traversal
sequences (../) from module names extracted from git URLs. This prevents
a crafted URL like https://example.com/repo/../../etc/passwd.git from
being used to write outside the intended modules directory.
