imagemagick+ffmpeg: 5-MOAD scan; ffmpeg-0004 CWE-312 Authorization header logged at AV_LOG_DEBUG

Browse source 
ffmpeg-0004 (MOAD-0004 / CWE-312): libavformat/http.c http_connect() logs the full
HTTP request at AV_LOG_DEBUG, including the Authorization: Basic header with
base64-encoded user:pass. Fix: produce a sanitized copy before av_log, replacing
auth header values with ***REDACTED***. Wire bytes unchanged. 22/22 unit tests PASS.

FFmpeg MOADs 0002/0003/0005: CLEAN. ImageMagick MOADs 0002-0005: CLEAN.

# UNDF: (pending)
# CWE-312: Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information — HTTP Authorization header logged at AV_LOG_DEBUG
# File: libavformat/http.c
# Severity: MEDIUM
# MOAD: 0004 (Logged Secret)
#
# The http_connect() function builds the full HTTP request into a buffer that
# includes the Authorization header (Basic or Digest) when credentials are
# supplied. Line 1640 then logs the entire request string at AV_LOG_DEBUG:
#
# av_log(h, AV_LOG_DEBUG, "request: %s\n", request.str);
#
# The request.str buffer contains the literal credential line, e.g.:
# Authorization: Basic dXNlcjpwYXNz\r\n
#
# AV_LOG_DEBUG is enabled by any user who passes -loglevel debug (or sets
# av_log_set_level(AV_LOG_DEBUG)), which is extremely common during development,
# in CI pipelines, and in production transcoding services that have verbose
# logging enabled. This causes credentials to appear in:
# - terminal output
# - log files (often world-readable in /var/log/)
# - log aggregation services (Splunk, ELK, Datadog, etc.)
#
# The credential is base64-encoded, not encrypted — trivially decoded with
# echo 'dXNlcjpwYXNz' | base64 -d → user:pass
#
# Fix: log a sanitized version of the request that replaces the value of any
# Authorization or Proxy-Authorization header with "***REDACTED***" before
# passing to av_log. The raw wire bytes are sent normally; only the log output
# is sanitized.
#
# Complexity ratio: N/A (credential exposure, not algorithmic)
# Affected versions: all FFmpeg versions with http.c http_connect()

# FFmpeg — MOAD-0002 through MOAD-0005 scan
## Scope
Full 5-MOAD scan of FFmpeg (libavcodec/ + libavformat/ + libavfilter/) against:
- MOAD-0002: Intertangle (shared mutable global god object)
- MOAD-0003: Leaked Context (thread_local holding request-scoped identity)
- MOAD-0004: Logged Secret (credentials logged verbatim)
- MOAD-0005: Thundering Herd (cache get+null+compute+put without lock)
CWE-407 (MOAD-0001) defects are in ffmpeg-0001 through ffmpeg-0003.
## MOAD-0002: Intertangle — CLEAN
FFmpeg uses per-AVCodecContext/AVFormatContext state. The global av_log callback
is intentionally global (logging infrastructure) and is not subsystem coupling.
The codec_list and filter_list are read-only after compile time.
No god object coupling independent decode/encode subsystems through shared
mutable state found.
Verdict: CLEAN.
## MOAD-0003: Leaked Context — CLEAN
libavcodec/ffjni.c uses pthread_key to store JNI JNIEnv* per-thread on Android.
This is correct thread-local JNI attachment — not request-scoped identity leaking
across subsystem boundaries. The JNI env is detached when the thread exits.
No other pthread_key or __thread usage carries per-stream or per-request identity.
Verdict: CLEAN.
## MOAD-0004: Logged Secret — DEFECT (ffmpeg-0004)
libavformat/http.c http_connect(), line 1640:
```c
if (authstr)
av_bprintf(&request, "%s", authstr); // line 1634: adds Authorization: Basic <b64>
if (proxyauthstr)
av_bprintf(&request, "Proxy-%s", proxyauthstr);
av_bprintf(&request, "\r\n");
av_log(h, AV_LOG_DEBUG, "request: %s\n", request.str); // line 1640: logs full request
```
authstr = "Authorization: Basic dXNlcjpwYXNz\r\n" (base64-encoded user:pass).
AV_LOG_DEBUG is active whenever ffmpeg -loglevel debug or av_log_set_level(AV_LOG_DEBUG).
This is extremely common in development, CI, and production verbose-mode deployments.
Patch: ffmpeg-0004-http-auth-debug-log-credential-leak.patch
Unit test: FFmpegHttpAuthLogTest.java (22/22 PASS)
Severity: MEDIUM (requires debug logging to be active).
## MOAD-0005: Thundering Herd — CLEAN
FFmpeg uses ff_thread_once() / AVOnce (backed by pthread_once) for all
static initialization: VLC tables, codec tables, huffman tables.
pthread_once is atomically guaranteed — no racy double-init possible.
No get+null+compute+put pattern without lock found in hot paths.
Verdict: CLEAN.
## Summary
| MOAD | Finding |
|------|---------|
| 0001 | ffmpeg-0001 (format merge O(N²)), ffmpeg-0002 (GIF palette O(256²)), ffmpeg-0003 (mpegts discard O(P²)) |
| 0002 | CLEAN |
| 0003 | CLEAN |
| 0004 | ffmpeg-0004: http.c Authorization header logged at AV_LOG_DEBUG (CWE-312) |
| 0005 | CLEAN |

* CWE-312 simulation: FFmpeg libavformat/http.c — Authorization header logged at AV_LOG_DEBUG

*
* av_log(h, AV_LOG_DEBUG, "request: %s\n", request.str);
*
* The request includes the Authorization header assembled by ff_http_auth_create_response():

* terminal output, log files, and aggregation services.
*
* Fix: before calling av_log, produce a sanitized copy of the request string
* where the value of Authorization and Proxy-Authorization headers is replaced
* with "***REDACTED***". Wire bytes are unchanged; only the log line is safe.
*
* This test verifies:
* 1. The vulnerable path: credentials appear in the raw request string.
* 2. The patched path: credentials are redacted in the logged string.
* 3. The wire bytes (un-sanitized) remain correct after patching.
* 4. Non-auth headers are preserved unchanged.
* 5. Digest auth (multi-field) is also redacted.

# ImageMagick — MOAD-0002 through MOAD-0005 scan — ALL CLEAN
## Scope
Full 5-MOAD scan of ImageMagick (MagickCore/ + coders/) against:
- MOAD-0002: Intertangle (shared mutable global god object)
- MOAD-0003: Leaked Context (thread_local holding request-scoped identity)
- MOAD-0004: Logged Secret (credentials logged verbatim)
- MOAD-0005: Thundering Herd (cache get+null+compute+put without lock)
CWE-407 (MOAD-0001) was already covered: imagemagick-0001 and imagemagick-0002 found.
## MOAD-0002: Intertangle — CLEAN
ImageMagick uses per-image ExceptionInfo and per-operation context objects.
Global state (type_cache, coder_cache, magick_list, etc.) is read-only after
initialization and protected by per-subsystem SemaphoreInfo locks.
No god object coupling independent subsystems through shared mutable state.
Verdict: CLEAN.
## MOAD-0003: Leaked Context — CLEAN
No pthread_key / thread_local / __thread usage that carries request-scoped
identity across subsystem boundaries. MagickCore/thread.c wraps pthread_key
for pixel cache thread context only (per-thread cache nexus), not for
request/session identity.
Verdict: CLEAN.
## MOAD-0004: Logged Secret — CLEAN
HTTP/FTP delegation goes through the curl delegate command:
`curl -s -L -o %o "https:%M"`
The URL substitution (%M) expands to the path component of the URL,
not the userinfo (user:pass@host). Credentials in URLs are not passed
to LogMagickEvent. LogMagickEvent(TraceEvent,...) logs image->filename
which does not contain userinfo for HTTP sources. TraceEvent requires
explicit opt-in via MAGICK_DEBUG=trace; it is not enabled by default.
Verdict: CLEAN.
## MOAD-0005: Thundering Herd — CLEAN
All lazy-init caches use correct double-checked locking with proper
semaphore barriers. Pattern from IsTypeTreeInstantiated (type.c:887):
```c
if (type_cache == NULL) {
if (type_semaphore == NULL)
ActivateSemaphoreInfo(&type_semaphore);
LockSemaphoreInfo(type_semaphore); // acquire barrier
if (type_cache == NULL) // re-check under lock
type_cache = AcquireTypeCache(...);
UnlockSemaphoreInfo(type_semaphore); // release barrier
}
```
This pattern is consistent across all subsystem caches (color, coder, magic,
locale, module, configure, registry). No racy get+null+put without lock found.
Verdict: CLEAN.
