refactor(api): posters.py stage 2 — non-route logic moves to util owners#536chodeus wants to merge 7 commits into
Conversation
51 route handlers stay put (surface proven identical, same order); the non-route logic leaves: candidate ranking to asset_candidates, PIL thumbnail/transcode/optimize to poster_images, cleanarr config accessors to poster_cleanarr_settings, preview confinement to path_safety's resolve_under_root. Dedups: ARTWORK_IMAGE_TYPES to its poster_cache owner (two copies deleted), the 3x plex metadata-dir confinement to one resolve_in_metadata_dir, one shared format map. _optimize_posters_sync returns (message, data) so backend/util never imports backend.api. posters.py: 3981 -> 3568.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR extracts shared utilities for poster candidate ranking, image processing, Cleanarr settings, Plex metadata paths, and filesystem confinement. Poster APIs and tests now use these utilities. ChangesPoster API consolidation
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This refactor moves poster cleanup and image operations into shared utilities, but the current code can still pass stale or unresolved paths into destructive file operations, potentially causing unauthorized moves or removals. The PR is not merge-ready until those paths are re-confined at execution time or the risk is explicitly accepted by the owner. Possibly related PRs

The pathlib resolve() chain is modeled as a filesystem sink (the G1 lesson), so the moved confinement minted alerts 316/317 on itself. Same operation through os.path.realpath + the os.sep-suffixed prefix check; a new test pins the prefix-sibling bypass the suffix exists to stop.
py/path-injection 318/319/320: both routes fed a bare realpath into PIL and FileResponse — normalizing, never authorizing. Same resolve_confined guard #534 gives them, so the two branches converge on one shape rather than conflicting. A poisoned row now gets 403 at both routes, pinned by a test that reddens when either guard is reverted.
is_path_allowed keeps the verdict but normalizes with os.path.realpath and compares with an os.sep-suffixed prefix — relative_to gave the same answer, but CodeQL can't see through it, so every consumer of a confined path stayed flagged (318/319/320). resolve_confined delegates as before, so the preview regression test's seam is intact. New test pins the prefix-sibling case the suffix exists to stop; the test's own import style stops minting py/import-and-import-from (322).

- Around line 3324-3329: Ensure the route-level handlers preserve structured
ConfigError responses by adding an except ConfigError: raise arm before each
broad except Exception in get_poster_thumbnail, download_poster, and
optimize_posters. Apply this change at backend/api/posters.py lines 3324-3329,
3422-3427, and 1005-1023 respectively; no other error-handling behavior should
change.

In `@backend/util/poster_cleanarr_settings.py`:
- Around line 66-92: The asset_dirs handling in the request override flow must
constrain caller-provided directories before PosterCleanarr scans or deletes
files. Resolve each asset_dirs entry with os.path.realpath and retain only paths
contained within the configured allowed asset root(s), rejecting or ignoring
paths outside those roots; preserve target_paths as a filter for
already-discovered files rather than treating it as a security boundary.
In `@backend/util/poster_images.py`:
- Around line 53-60: Update optimize_poster_files to load the current
configuration once per invocation, then pass each poster’s raw folder/file path
through resolve_confined before any shutil.move or os.remove operations. Skip
posters whose paths fail confinement, and derive dest_path from the resolved
path rather than cache-controlled values.
In `@tests/test_posters_queries.py`:
- Around line 504-519: Update
test_thumbnail_and_download_refuse_rows_outside_allowed_roots to assert not
is_path_allowed(str(victim), ChubConfig()) immediately before the thumbnail and
download requests, ensuring the fixture path is outside configured roots before
validating the 403 responses.

…igError asset_dirs arrived from the request body and reached PosterCleanarr's deleting passes unchecked — build_cleanup_overrides now confines each against the allowed roots and rejects the rest as a 400. optimize_poster_files re-confines every cache row before shutil.move and os.remove, skipping (and counting) a poisoned one instead of writing through it. Four routes gained a function-level 'except ConfigError: raise' — without it the inner re-raise landed in the broad handler and a malformed config read as a generic 500 instead of CONFIG_INVALID. The 403 confinement test now asserts its own precondition.

All four addressed in ae3be0f — thanks, two of these were real holes.
Every new guard is mutation-checked — reverting each one reddens its test (generic error codes instead of CONFIG_INVALID; |
The inner break bounded one prefix query, so each alternate title could add another 800 rows before any scoring — with k titles the pool reached ~800k, every row paying an is_match plus a SequenceMatcher ratio. The cap is now checked before each query too.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Re-authorize queued cleanup paths at execution time. The request validates asset_dirs before enqueueing, but the background cleanup worker later applies those serialized paths and performs recursive scans, moves, and removals without checking them against current allowed roots. If a path or root changes before execution, cleanup can operate outside the original authorization decision. Re-resolve each path and reject the job before any destructive pass unless it remains confined to a current allowed root.

All 56 top-level defs classified; the 51 route handlers stay (route surface proven identical before/after — same 51 routes, paths, methods, and order, which tests/test_routes.py depends on). The non-route logic leaves:
backend/util/asset_candidates.rank_candidatesbackend/util/poster_imagesbackend/util/poster_cleanarr_settingsresolve_under_root(all five deny branches were the identical 403, so anOptional[Path]return is exactly faithful — 13-case parity harness, 0 mismatches)Dedups taken:
ARTWORK_IMAGE_TYPES(two copies deleted, canonical poster_cache owner), the 3× plex metadata-dir confinement → one owner, one shared format map.
