Current exact state

Protected/base: develop@e71d37e7c58118e6764c96ab7c4492fe33eed6f8.
Current exact head: 44ea327c1de2b4ee3ddaea2a540daf8c9a8d3950.
The effective delta is now only appguardrail_core/controlplane.py plus tests/test_webhook_storage_ssrf_contract.py; the generated Sentinel doctrine was restored exactly to protected-base content.

Valid finding and bounded claim

The HTTP webhook route already validates the submitted URL before calling set_webhook, but set_webhook is also a directly callable persistence function. Enforcing _is_safe_url immediately before persistence makes that storage boundary fail closed for callers that bypass the HTTP handler. This is useful defense in depth and prevents a directly supplied loopback/private destination from being committed through that function.

This PR does not establish a CRITICAL exploit by itself and does not prove complete delivery-time SSRF resistance. Persistence-time DNS/address validation cannot by itself prevent later DNS rebinding or prove that the eventual connection is pinned to the validated address. Those delivery-time guarantees require separate transport evidence and are not claimed here.

Regression evidence

ef6ea8203543d7521c338a0eac60265912a032f3 adds a direct storage-boundary regression rather than relying only on endpoint tests: a loopback webhook must raise ValueError and leave orgs.webhook_url unchanged. Explicit clearing with None remains permitted. Normal descendant 44ea327c... then restores .jules/sentinel.md to the exact protected-base blob, keeping this product-local invariant from becoming a duplicated repository-wide generated doctrine.

Fresh base→head compare is ahead_by=3, behind_by=0; the only effective files are the two source/test files above. No force push or destructive rebase was used.

Promotion boundary

Keep Draft until this unchanged exact head has terminal tests/security/SAST/OSV/Scorecard evidence and current review findings are resolved. Do not transfer the generated task's local uv run pytest claim to the new head, self-approve, weaken gates, or describe storage admission as delivery-time DNS-rebinding protection.

저장된 SSRF(Stored SSRF) 취약점을 방지하기 위해 `set_webhook` 함수 내에서 URL에 대한 `_is_safe_url` 보안 검증을 강제하도록 수정했습니다. 이로써 외부 경로를 통한 우회를 원천 차단합니다.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 4da31

Webhook URLs are now validated before storage, preventing unsafe URLs from being persisted. However, callers using an empty string to clear a webhook may now receive an error instead, so this compatibility regression should be fixed before merge.

빈 문자열을 해제 값으로 처리해야 합니다.

기존 url or None 정규화와 Set (or clear) 계약에 따르면 ""은 웹훅 해제 값으로 사용할 수 있습니다. 현재 코드는 _is_safe_url("")False를 반환하므로 데이터베이스 갱신 전에 ValueError를 발생시킵니다. 빈 문자열만 None으로 정규화한 뒤 검증하고, 다른 비문자열 값은 계속 거부하십시오.
