Starlette < 1.0.1 is affected by CVE-2026-48710 ("BadHost", CWE-444).
The HTTP Host header was not validated before being used to rebuild
`request.url`, so a malformed Host could make `request.url.path` desync
from the raw ASGI path the router actually dispatched. Middleware and
endpoints that apply path-based authorization off `request.url` (rather
than `scope["path"]`) can therefore be bypassed.
Hermes pulls Starlette transitively, never directly:
- [web] -> fastapi==0.133.1 (starlette>=0.40.0, no upper bound)
- [mcp] -> mcp==1.26.0 + sse-starlette (starlette>=0.27 / >=0.49.1)
- [computer-use] -> mcp==1.26.0
- [dev] -> mcp==1.26.0
A fresh resolve landed starlette 0.52.1 — vulnerable. With no upper
bound on the transitive specs, pip/uv could resolve any pre-1.0.1
release on a fresh install.
Fix: pin starlette==1.0.1 directly in every extra that exposes a
Starlette-backed server surface, regenerate uv.lock (only starlette
moves: 0.52.1 -> 1.0.1, hash-verified), and mirror the pin in the
lazy-install map (tools/lazy_deps.py `tool.dashboard`) so `hermes`
on-demand dashboard installs can't re-resolve a vulnerable version.
1.0.1 is the advisory's named fix floor and the oldest patched release
(more bake time than 1.1.0/1.2.0, which are days old); it satisfies
every carrier constraint and our requires-python>=3.11.
Scope note: this is a dependency-level fix complementing the
application-layer Host-header validator added in #34162
(`hermes_cli/web_server.py` `_is_accepted_host`). Defense in depth at
both the framework and app layers.
Guards: two invariant tests in tests/test_packaging_metadata.py assert
every server-surface extra pins starlette and that pyproject + uv.lock
both resolve >= the 1.0.1 CVE floor — a dropped pin or stale lock fails
in CI instead of shipping the bypass.
Closes#35067
* fix(deps): declare setuptools in dev extra for packaging tests
tests/test_packaging_metadata.py imports `from setuptools import
find_packages` at module scope to validate package discovery against
the live tree. setuptools was being picked up ambiently from the CI
runner image, but recent ubuntu-latest images no longer ship it in the
test venv, so collection fails with ModuleNotFoundError on every PR.
Declare setuptools==82.0.1 in the dev optional-dependencies so `.[all,dev]`
installs it explicitly rather than relying on the runner environment.
* test(packaging): skip packaging-metadata tests when setuptools absent
Belt-and-suspenders alongside declaring setuptools in [dev]: guard the
module-level `from setuptools import find_packages` with
pytest.importorskip so a runner missing setuptools SKIPS these checks
instead of erroring out collection for the entire test shard.
* chore(deps): sync uv.lock for setuptools dev dependency
[tool.setuptools.packages.find] listed 'hermes_cli' without the
'hermes_cli.*' wildcard, so the wheel shipped hermes_cli/*.py but
dropped the dashboard_auth and proxy subpackages. The dashboard died
on every install with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named
'hermes_cli.dashboard_auth' (#34701); 'hermes proxy' was equally
broken.
Add the wildcard, and add a regression test that drives setuptools'
own find_packages against the live tree so any future subpackage
dropped from the include list fails CI instead of a user's container.
The v0.15.0 PyPI wheel shipped every plugin's Python code but none of its
plugin.yaml manifests, so plugin discovery (hermes_cli/plugins.py) found zero
plugins and ALL gateway platforms failed with "No adapter available for
<platform>" (discord, slack, mattermost, ...). Same gap also dropped the
web-search provider manifests (#28149).
Declare manifest coverage in both packaging channels:
- wheel: [tool.setuptools.package-data] plugins += **/plugin.yaml, **/plugin.yml
- sdist: MANIFEST.in recursive-include plugins plugin.yaml plugin.yml
(Homebrew and other downstream packagers build from the sdist)
Verified by building the wheel before/after: plugin.yaml count went 0 -> 69,
discord's manifest now ships. Adds a regression test asserting both channels
cover manifests.
Fixes#34034
