From 2eea7d128cf59897b6e9ba668d78da496dd66385 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "russell@unturf.com" Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2026 12:30:28 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] 4 follow-up patches shipped: wildfly-0002 + wildfly-0003 + log4j2-0001 + nakama-0001 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Acting on the 4 borderline candidates flagged in the session-summary intel. All 4 surfaced after the unmoad scanner enhancements cleared M3/M4 noise. UNDF-1306 wildfly-0002 (HIGH) - ElytronSecurityDomainContextImpl.isValid() sets currentIdentity ThreadLocal with no paired cleanup contract. Subject populated at line 69 is the canonical handover; the ThreadLocal stash leaks to next request on the pool thread. Fix: drop the .set(identity) line. UNDF-1307 wildfly-0003 (LOW) - TransactionRollbackSetupAction.depth.set(null) should be depth.remove() to fully delete the ThreadLocal entry; current pattern leaves null binding pinning the WildFly classloader during undeploy/redeploy. Functional clear, classloader-retention only. UNDF-1308 log4j2-0001 (HIGH) - Log4jMDCAdapter.clear() only clears the log4j ThreadContext map, NOT the SLF4J pushByKey/popByKey stacks (mapOfStacks ThreadLocal). SLF4J spec mandates clear() means "clear all MDC". Per-key Deques accumulate across requests. Fix: add clear() to ThreadLocalMapOfStacks (calls tlMapOfStacks.remove()) and call from the public clear(). UNDF-1309 nakama-0001 (HIGH MOAD-0004) - social/social.go logs OAuth access tokens, ID tokens, oauth2.Token objects (incl. refresh tokens), Steam publisherKey + ticket at debug level via zap.String/zap.Any. 11 call sites. Fix: replace value-logging with shape-logging (token_len, has_token bool) — preserves debug value, redacts secret bytes. First MOAD-0004 patch this session. Companion to the 3 MOAD-0003 patches (wildfly-0001/0002/0003) extending the inverse-pipeline pattern across projects: scanner enhancement -> noise reduction -> human triage finds defects that were buried. Total session flagships: 9 (was 6) — 5 CWE-407 + 3 MOAD-0003 + 1 MOAD-0004. --- UNDF-REGISTRY.json | 4 + ...2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.patch | 53 +++++++ ...01-social-oauth-token-debug-log-leak.patch | 133 ++++++++++++++++++ ...uritydomain-isvalid-threadlocal-leak.patch | 55 ++++++++ ...tionrollbacksetupaction-depth-remove.patch | 45 ++++++ ...g4j2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.md | 76 ++++++++++ ...-0001-social-oauth-token-debug-log-leak.md | 96 +++++++++++++ ...securitydomain-isvalid-threadlocal-leak.md | 85 +++++++++++ ...sactionrollbacksetupaction-depth-remove.md | 63 +++++++++ whitepaper/outreach/log4j2.md | 69 +++++++++ whitepaper/outreach/nakama.md | 92 ++++++++++++ 11 files changed, 771 insertions(+) create mode 100644 defects/log4j2/patch/log4j2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.patch create mode 100644 defects/nakama/patch/nakama-0001-social-oauth-token-debug-log-leak.patch create mode 100644 defects/wildfly/patch/wildfly-0002-elytronsecuritydomain-isvalid-threadlocal-leak.patch create mode 100644 defects/wildfly/patch/wildfly-0003-transactionrollbacksetupaction-depth-remove.patch create mode 100644 docs/tickets/log4j2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.md create mode 100644 docs/tickets/nakama-0001-social-oauth-token-debug-log-leak.md create mode 100644 docs/tickets/wildfly-0002-elytronsecuritydomain-isvalid-threadlocal-leak.md create mode 100644 docs/tickets/wildfly-0003-transactionrollbacksetupaction-depth-remove.md create mode 100644 whitepaper/outreach/log4j2.md create mode 100644 whitepaper/outreach/nakama.md diff --git a/UNDF-REGISTRY.json b/UNDF-REGISTRY.json index 516f3ccdf..3da8dfd0a 100644 --- a/UNDF-REGISTRY.json +++ b/UNDF-REGISTRY.json @@ -600,6 +600,7 @@ "llvm-0006": "UNDF-2026-000000774", "lmdb-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000454", "lmdb-001": "UNDF-2026-000000638", + "log4j2-0001": "UNDF-2026-000001308", "loki-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000821", "lotus-0001-0001": "UNDF-2026-000001018", "love2d-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000157", @@ -681,6 +682,7 @@ "naev-0002-0002": "UNDF-2026-000001000", "nagioscore-0001-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000879", "nagioscore-0002-0002": "UNDF-2026-000000880", + "nakama-0001": "UNDF-2026-000001309", "natron-0001": "UNDF-2026-000001129", "nats-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000466", "nats-server-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000179", @@ -1268,6 +1270,8 @@ "widelands-0002-0002": "UNDF-2026-000000977", "widelands-0003-0003": "UNDF-2026-000000978", "wildfly-0001": "UNDF-2026-000001305", + "wildfly-0002": "UNDF-2026-000001306", + "wildfly-0003": "UNDF-2026-000001307", "wine-0001-0001": "UNDF-2026-000000886", "wine-0002-0002": "UNDF-2026-000001193", "wine-0003-0003": "UNDF-2026-000001194", diff --git a/defects/log4j2/patch/log4j2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.patch b/defects/log4j2/patch/log4j2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.patch new file mode 100644 index 000000000..65d619858 --- /dev/null +++ b/defects/log4j2/patch/log4j2-0001-mdcadapter-clear-leaks-stacks.patch @@ -0,0 +1,53 @@ +# UNDF: UNDF-2026-000001308 +# CWE-668 / MOAD-0003: A Leaked Context — Log4jMDCAdapter.clear() does not clear +# the per-key stacks ThreadLocal +# +# Defect: log4j-slf4j2-impl/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/slf4j/Log4jMDCAdapter.java +# has TWO per-thread state holders: +# 1.
