Fourth security batch: redirects, private messages and a first CSRF sweep.

Changes

Redirects

  • New Xoops\Core\RedirectUrl (same-site rules ported from XoopsCore27's xoops_isLocalUrl() / xoops_validateLocalRedirect() / xoops_postLoginRedirectUrl()).
  • Xoops::redirect() checks the target before the core.include.functions.redirectheader event. With redirect_message_ajax on, the System preload sent the Location header and exited before any check ran. The old check compared a host prefix, so https://site.test.evil.test/, //evil.test/ and /\evil.test/ all passed. The new check compares scheme, host and port. javascript:history.go(-n) and bare relative paths still work.
  • Login (checklogin.php): xoops_redirect=@evil.test became https://site.test@evil.test. The target now goes through RedirectUrl::afterLogin() (base-path prefixing for subdirectory installs is kept; registration pages and anything off-site go to index.php).
  • user.php, profile user.php and index.php (already logged in): //evil.test passed the :// check. They now use RedirectUrl::validate().
  • HTTP_REFERER redirects (comments, group permissions) and notifications/update.php are covered by the central check.

Private messages

  • PmMessageHandler::setTodelete() tested from_userid == 0 instead of != 0. When a recipient deleted a message from a registered user, the row was removed, including the sender's outbox copy.
  • Inbox/outbox "save" moved any message id given, including other users' messages. It now requires the caller to be the recipient (inbox) or sender (outbox). Missing ids are skipped instead of causing a fatal error.
  • Reading a message from the save box and deleting it reported an error every time (undefined $res1/$res2).
  • A message sent to yourself: setTodelete()/setFromDelete() now update the object as well as the row, so deleting both sides removes the row instead of leaving an invisible one. Bulk delete handles the side that matches the folder (inbox: recipient, outbox: sender, save box: both).
  • Admin prune requires POST and a token. A leftover Debug::log() that read an undefined variable is removed.

CSRF

  • Plugins admin: saving order/status requires POST and a token. The unused op=status GET branch is removed.
  • Profile field visibility: adding needs a token. Deleting goes through a confirmation with a token instead of a GET link.
  • Publisher: the five delete confirmations (category, item, file in admin and front end, submit) check the token the confirmation form already carried. Category, item and file forms carry a token, and their saves check it without consuming it, because a save error sends the user back to the same form (history.go(-1)) to fix and resubmit. The article form's token lasts one hour instead of five minutes.
  • Publisher mimetypes: every POST, delete and admin/user toggle needs a token (the links carry XOOPS_TOKEN_REQUEST). Bulk-delete ids are cast to integers before they go into the IN (...) list.

Behaviour changes

  • Redirects to another host, a scheme-relative URL or a backslash form now go to the site root unless the caller passes $allowExternalLink.
  • Old bookmarks of publisher mimetype delete/toggle links and profile visibility delete links no longer act; the page reloads with fresh links.

Tests

  • tests/unit/xoopsLib/Xoops/Core/RedirectUrlTest.php: 43 cases (look-alike host, userinfo, scheme-relative, backslash, TAB, DEL, encoded slash, other port/scheme, javascript:/entity forms, history.go, subdirectory base path, .. segments, registration pages with entity/double encoding).
  • Full suite: 3566 tests, no failures.

Manual checks

  • Log in from a module page: you land back on that page (also in a subdirectory install)
  • user.php?xoops_redirect=//example.com while logged in goes to your profile, not off-site
  • Turn on "redirect_message_ajax" and repeat the two checks above
  • PM: the recipient deletes a message, and the sender still sees it in their outbox
  • PM: save and unsave from inbox, outbox and save box; delete from the save box shows success
  • Plugins admin: change order and status and save
  • Profile > Permissions > Visibility: add a rule, delete a rule (confirmation shown)
  • Publisher: create/edit/delete a category, an article (admin and front-end submit) and a file
  • Publisher mimetypes: add, edit, toggle admin/user, delete one, bulk delete

Summary by Sourcery

Harden redirects and state-changing administrative workflows against open redirects, unauthorized private-message actions, and CSRF attacks.

New Features:

  • Add centralized same-site redirect validation for login, user flows, referer-based redirects, and AJAX redirect handling.
  • Add CSRF protection to plugin administration, profile visibility management, PM pruning, and Publisher mutation workflows.

Bug Fixes:

  • Prevent private-message deletion from removing another user's copy and correctly handle self-sent messages, saved messages, missing IDs, and folder-specific bulk actions.
  • Reject unsafe external, scheme-relative, malformed, and script-based redirect targets while preserving valid local redirects.

Enhancements:

  • Consolidate private-message folder deletion and ownership handling through shared logic.
  • Harden Publisher mimetype bulk operations by validating IDs before database filtering and include tokens in state-changing links and forms.
  • Preserve longer-lived Publisher form tokens when users need to correct and resubmit content.

Tests:

  • Add comprehensive redirect validation coverage and private-message folder deletion tests.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Security
    • Plugin updates and profile visibility changes require valid security confirmation.
    • Publisher content, file, category, and MIME-type changes, along with message pruning and content submissions, are protected by security confirmation.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Login and profile redirects handle invalid or unsafe destinations more consistently.
    • Redirects are sanitized before use, with external destinations restricted according to site settings.
    • Private-message saving, deletion, and folder moves better reflect the selected folder and participants involved.
    • Message save limits and partial-save feedback are handled more accurately.

Walkthrough

The change adds shared redirect URL handling to core redirect, login, and profile flows. It adds security-token checks to selected plugin, profile, and Publisher actions. It also changes private-message deletion and move handling.

Changes

Redirect URL handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
URL sanitization and locality checks
xoops_lib/Xoops/Core/RedirectUrl.php, xoops_lib/Xoops.php, tests/unit/xoopsLib/Xoops/Core/RedirectUrlTest.php
RedirectUrl adds URL sanitization and locality checks. Xoops::redirect() delegates sanitization to the class. Unit tests cover sanitization and locality.
Redirect validation and post-login destinations
xoops_lib/Xoops/Core/RedirectUrl.php, tests/unit/xoopsLib/Xoops/Core/RedirectUrlTest.php
RedirectUrl validates local redirect targets and selects post-login destinations. Unit tests cover base-path boundaries, unsafe paths, and fallback destinations.
Login and profile redirect callers
htdocs/include/checklogin.php, htdocs/modules/profile/index.php, htdocs/modules/profile/user.php, htdocs/user.php
Login and profile flows now use RedirectUrl. The profile index requires user.php directly.

Security-token checks for state changes

Layer / File(s) Summary
Plugin, PM, and profile administration checks
htdocs/modules/plugins/admin/plugins.php, htdocs/modules/pm/admin/prune.php, htdocs/modules/profile/admin/visibility.php
Plugin updates and PM pruning require POST requests and security checks. Profile visibility creation and deletion use token checks, integer inputs, and deletion confirmation.
Publisher administration actions and forms
htdocs/modules/publisher/admin/category.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/admin/file.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/admin/item.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/admin/mimetypes.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/src/Form/CategoryForm.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/src/Form/ItemForm.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/src/Form/FileForm.php
Publisher administration actions check security tokens. Forms and action links include tokens, and MIME IDs are converted to integers for bulk deletion.
Publisher submissions and file changes
htdocs/modules/publisher/file.php, htdocs/modules/publisher/submit.php
Publisher file and item operations check security tokens before selected updates and deletions.

Private-message lifecycle

Layer / File(s) Summary
Message deletion state and folder ownership
htdocs/modules/pm/class/message.php, tests/unit/class/PmMessageHandlerTest.php
Message handlers update deletion state and add deleteFromFolder() to select message sides by user and folder. Unit tests cover ownership and persisted outcomes.
Private-message delete and move operations
htdocs/modules/pm/readpmsg.php, htdocs/modules/pm/viewpmsg.php
Message actions use deleteFromFolder(), normalize submitted IDs, skip unresolved messages, and check participant ownership when moving messages.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~50 minutes

🟡 Changes recommended

A critical mismatch between decoded URL validation and the returned raw URL permits external redirects, and deleting saved self-messages can incorrectly report an error.

Fixed in f40a633: deletes now go through PmMessageHandler::deleteFromFolder(), which skips any side whose _delete flag is already set, so the sender-side update never runs on a removed row. Covered by the 'saved, sender side deleted' case in PmMessageHandlerTest.

🔵 Needs a closer look

The self-message unsave path clears only the recipient-side flag, leaving the sender-side flag set and the message incorrectly retained in the save box.

In code that hasn't changed since last review

Medium severity Self-message unsave leaves the sender save flag set

htdocs/​modules/​pm/​viewpmsg.php:86

When a user sends a message to themselves and has saved both sides, the save-box row has both to_save and from_save set. This branch clears only to_save because of the else, leaving from_save=1, so the message remains in the save box after the user unsaves it. Handle the recipient and sender sides independently, as the single-message path does.

Do not count skipped messages against the save limit.

If one save slot remains and the first selected message was deleted after the page loaded, this continue uses the loop’s only permitted iteration. The next valid message is not saved. Iterate over the selected IDs and decrement the remaining capacity only after a successful save. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Minor · Separate the success count from the new-slot count. · viewpmsg.php:130

htdocs/modules/pm/viewpmsg.php:130
Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Separate the success count from the new-slot count.

When a self-message already counted in getSavecount() moves its other side, $done can be true but $saved remains unchanged because $counted is true. The same value is passed to _PM_SAVED_PART.

With a full Savebox, the move succeeds but the page displays “you saved 0 messages”. In a mixed selection, the page underreports successful moves.

Track new slots separately from successful moves.

🔵 Needs a closer look

Human runtime validation is still needed because this broad security change affects redirect handling, CSRF-protected mutations, and stateful PM/Publisher workflows whose interactions cannot be confirmed statically.
