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("")가 False를 반환하므로 데이터베이스 갱신 전에 ValueError를 발생시킵니다. 빈 문자열만 None으로 정규화한 뒤 검증하고, 다른 비문자열 값은 계속 거부하십시오.

 def set_webhook(conn: sqlite3.Connection, org_id: int, url: "str | None") -> None:
     """Set (or clear) the org's drift-alert webhook URL."""

+    normalized_url = None if isinstance(url, str) and url == "" else url
+    if normalized_url is not None and not _is_safe_url(normalized_url):
         raise ValueError("Invalid webhook URL")

string URL to None before validation in the webhook Set-or-clear flow, then
validate only the normalized non-None value so clearing succeeds without raising
ValueError. Preserve rejection of other non-string values and keep the existing
_is_safe_url check for actual URLs.

SSRF (CWE-918): Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Reachability: External · Exploitability: Moderate

DNS 재바인딩 방어를 구현하십시오.

_is_safe_url은 검증 시점의 주소만 확인합니다. opener.open은 연결 시 DNS를 다시 해석하므로, 검증된 공인 주소가 사설 주소로 변경될 수 있습니다. DNS 결과에 연결을 고정하거나 egress 정책으로 사설망 목적지를 차단하고 회귀 테스트를 추가하십시오.

In `@appguardrail_core/controlplane.py` around lines 140 - 141, Update the webhook
request flow around _is_safe_url and opener.open to prevent DNS rebinding:
resolve the hostname and pin the connection to the validated public address, or
enforce an equivalent egress policy blocking private-network destinations at
connect time. Preserve rejection of unsafe URLs and add a regression test
covering a hostname that resolves publicly during validation but privately when
connecting.
