Build imd-action: a reusable JavaScript GitHub Action (node20, action.yml, committed dist/ bundle) that opens a paid IMD swarm request from CI. Inputs: action, input (inline JSON or a file path), max-imd, dry-run (default true), wait (poll until the job settles), import-repo (true resolves the current public repo and commit with POST /requests/import and fills repoUrl/baseCommit). Outputs: order-id, job-id, job-url (https://explorer.imd.fun/jobs/), status. The key comes only from a secret …

    afterScaffold project

    Recorded five reproducible findings in .imd-findings.json:

    • High: duplicate payments on rerun; concurrent daily-cap bypass; token decimals bypass both spending caps.
    • Medium: missing PR metadata bypasses the guard; API status enables shell injection in example workflows.

    Verified locally with throwaway keys. No mainnet access, real spending, or implementation changes.

    • highRe-running a GitHub job creates and pays a second ordersrc/run.ts:154

      Each action invocation creates a new bearer, request UUID and Permit2 nonce, with no durable association to the GitHub run/job or previously submitted order. Re-running an already paid job (including retrying after payment succeeded but polling failed) therefore authorizes another independent charge for the same CI request. The per-request cap does not prevent this, and the default daily cap permits two 0.5 IMD payments.

      HTTP retries within one invocation reuse bytes, but GitHub job reruns do not. The tests only exercise individual invocations. Preserve/recover the original order and authentication for retries, or refuse rerun payment unless separately authorized.

      Using test/helpers/mock-server.ts and run-action.ts with a fresh throwaway key, run action=job.open, input={"objective":"Audit the vault.","template":"audit"}, dry-run=false, and otherwise default caps against the local mock.

      Set GITHUB_REPOSITORY=owner/repo, GITHUB_RUN_ID=1234, GITHUB_JOB=audit, GITHUB_SHA to 40 a characters, GITHUB_RUN_ATTEMPT=1.

      After success, put its order in the mock paidBy list with status=admitted, paidAt=now, payment.amount="500000000000000000".

      Repeat with the same key, inputs and GitHub context, changing only GITHUB_RUN_ATTEMPT to 2.

      Expected: reuse/resume the paid order or refuse a second signature.

      Observed with the committed bundle: both exit 0; two different order IDs, requestKeys and nonces; the mock verifies two payments totalling 1000000000000000000 atomic units (1 IMD).

      No chain was contacted.

    • highServer-controlled decimals bypass both IMD spending capssrc/run.ts:146

      Both user spending caps are converted to atomic units using untrusted capability.payment.decimals. capabilityFor accepts any integer from 0 to 36, and verifyChallenge only requires the quote to repeat it. IMD has a fixed denomination: increasing the advertised decimals increases the effective caps without changing the token or signed atomic amount.

      Thus a faulty or malicious payment endpoint can exceed even the supposedly local per-request limit while asset, payTo, amount and quote comparisons all pass. Pin the IMD denomination locally and reject a capability/quote with different decimals.

      Run the committed bundle against the existing local mock with a fresh throwaway key, action=job.open, input={"objective":"Audit the vault.","template":"audit"}, dry-run=false, max-imd=0.05 and max-imd-per-day=0.05.

      Change only each capabilities action.payment.decimals and challenge.quote.payment.decimals from 18 to 19 (a localhost proxy can rewrite capabilities; use tamperChallenge for the quote).

      Leave asset, payTo and all amounts at the normal 500000000000000000 and return empty history.

      Expected: refuse the 0.5 IMD payment because both caps are 0.05 IMD, before signing.

      Observed: exit 0; mock verifies one payment with permitted.amount="500000000000000000" (0.5 IMD), while the log incorrectly says "Price: 0.05 IMD per job.open".

      No chain was contacted.

    • highConcurrent runs spend beyond the daily cap using the same history snapshotsrc/spend.ts:47

      The history read and subsequent signature/submission are not coordinated across action processes. Multiple legitimate CI runs using the same wallet can all observe the same honest history and each spend the remaining allowance. There is no reservation or wallet-level exclusion before signing.

      The concurrency group in example workflows only helps runs within one repository; this reusable action does not require it, and it cannot coordinate the same wallet across repositories. This violates the required per-day cap even with an honest API and valid individual quotes. The tests cover only a pre-populated history, not concurrent payment attempts.

      Start the existing local mock and a localhost proxy that holds the first three GET /requests/paid-by/ responses until all three have arrived, then returns {"count":0,"orders":[]} to each.

      At that point the mock has received zero payments, so all three responses are accurate.

      Launch three committed-bundle processes concurrently, sharing one fresh throwaway key, using different GITHUB_RUN_ID values and action=job.open, input={"objective":"Audit the vault.","template":"audit"}, dry-run=false, max-imd=0.5, max-imd-per-day=1.

      Forward all other requests unchanged.

      Expected: at most two 0.5 IMD authorizations.

      Observed: all three exit 0 and the mock verifies three distinct payments totalling 1500000000000000000 atomic units (1.5 IMD) against a 1 IMD daily cap.

      No chain was contacted.

    • mediumAPI status is interpolated into a shell command in all example summariesexamples/workflows/imd-research-on-label.yml:48

      setResultOutputs accepts any server status string and writes it as the status output. All three example Summary steps then insert that string directly into run shell source. Double quotes do not prevent command substitution, so control of a payment response status becomes code execution on the CI runner.

      This requires a malicious/malformed API response (or an operator-selected API endpoint); the issue and PR title paths themselves correctly use environment variables. A payment service trusted to return pricing and job state should not gain arbitrary runner command execution. Validate status against the protocol enum and pass outputs through environment variables before using them in shell.

      The same interpolation appears in imd-audit.yml:48 and imd-review-on-label.yml:49.

      Use the existing local mock and a fresh throwaway key with action=job.open, input={"objective":"Audit the vault.","template":"audit"}, dry-run=false and wait=false.

      A localhost proxy forwards requests but changes the signed-submit 202 response status to "$(touch /tmp/imd-summary-pwned)".

      The committed bundle exits 0 and emits that exact status output.

      Substitute the emitted outputs into the example Summary run block as GitHub does, and execute it with bash and GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY pointing to a /tmp file.

      Expected: status is rejected or printed literally.

      Observed: bash creates /tmp/imd-summary-pwned through command substitution.

      The local reproduction used a unique /tmp directory and confirmed the marker appeared; no external endpoint or chain was used.

    • mediumPull-request guard allows payment when PR metadata is missingsrc/guard.ts:36

      The guard checks the head/base repositories only when payload.pull_request is truthy. With GITHUB_EVENT_NAME=pull_request and an empty payload, a null pull_request, or no GITHUB_EVENT_PATH, it returns null and proceeds to read the secret and pay. The event name alone does not trigger a fail-closed metadata requirement.

      GitHub documents: "The pull_request webhook event payload is empty for merged pull requests and pull requests that come from forked repositories." Source read during review: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflows-and-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#pull_request . Ordinary public-fork runs lack secrets, which limits exploitation, but the required fork refusal must not depend on secret availability; any such run supplied a wallet key reaches signing.

      Tests cover a deleted head inside an existing PR object, but omit the absent PR object itself. Reject PR events whose same-repository origin cannot be established.

      Run the committed bundle against the existing local mock with GITHUB_ACTIONS=true, GITHUB_EVENT_NAME=pull_request, GITHUB_REPOSITORY=owner/repo, GITHUB_REF=refs/pull/7/merge and an event JSON containing {}.

      Supply a fresh throwaway private-key, action=job.open, input={"objective":"Audit the vault.","template":"audit"}, dry-run=false.

      Expected: refuse before reading the key or making any API request because head/base provenance is unavailable.

      Observed: exit 0, status=payment_pending, and one cryptographically verified payment.

      Repeating with {"pull_request":null}, and separately with GITHUB_EVENT_PATH unset, also produces a verified payment.

      Without a key, a dry run likewise reaches the API instead of refusing.

      All runs used localhost and no chain.

  4. updated
    #180Scaffold projectCodex17 files changed

    Reproduced and fixed all five findings. Live runs now refuse GitHub rerun payments, pin IMD to 18 decimals, reserve daily spend in a shared GitHub ledger before signing, reject PR events without repository metadata, and reject invalid API statuses. The three workflow summaries handle outputs as data.

    Live payment now requires a shared ledger repository and a secret token with Contents write access. Every repository using the same wallet must use that ledger; setup is in the README. The reservation uses GitHub’s documented file SHA and conflict response.

    npm run build and npm test pass: 63 tests, including the forced concurrent race. The committed bundle matches the clean build. Finding-by-finding responses are in .imd-responses.json.

    afterScaffold project

    Confirmed all five prior findings fixed:

    • Reruns refuse a second payment.
    • Decimals tampering cannot bypass spending caps.
    • Concurrent runs sharing the wallet ledger respect the daily cap.
    • Hostile statuses cannot execute commands in example summaries.
    • Missing PR metadata causes refusal before API access.

    All 25 targeted tests and independent reproductions passed using localhost mocks and throwaway keys. No mainnet access occurred.

    No remaining reproducible defects found. .imd-findings.json contains {"findings":[]}. Implementation files remain unchanged.
