SSO parses identity-provider JWKs and signed token headers with go-jose. Upgrade v4.1.4 to v4.1.7 to include the RSA JWK denial-of-service, JSON parsing, CBC-HMAC, and subsequent security fixes. Preserve the upstream 4096-bit RSA limit and verify oversized keys are rejected while usable keys in a mixed JWKS remain available.

Make the root-relative redirect authority checks explicit at the entry guard: reject both // and /\ before parsing. Retain control-character, encoded-path, same-origin, and authentication-loop checks, with shared Go/browser regression vectors that preserve legitimate query strings and fragments.

Addresses Dependabot #29, #30, #31, and CodeQL #31.

Validation completed: targeted SSO/OIDC/OAuth/JWKS Go tests; all 40 frontend tests and production build; the same bounded RSA regression fails against v4.1.4 and passes against v4.1.7. Full Go tests, vet, and all 7 Chromium SSO flows passed. Hosted CI and the security rescan are running.

Dependency review CI now checks dependency-file changes against GitHub advisories at moderate severity and above, with read-only permissions and no PR comments. The dependency-comparison API reports the three advisories on removed v4.1.4 and none on added v4.1.7. v4.1.7 contains the subsequent security fixes; v4.1.8 adds ML-DSA support without further security fixes.

Walkthrough

The pull request adds dependency review, upgrades go-jose, adds tests for oversized JWKS keys, and tightens SSO redirect validation with additional fixture cases.

Changes: SSO and dependency safeguards

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Dependency update and review .github/workflows/dependency-review.yml, go.mod	The go-jose dependency is upgraded from v4.1.4 to v4.1.7. A pull-request workflow runs dependency review for selected dependency and workflow files.
JWKS oversized-key test internal/sso/jwks_security_test.go	A test checks that fetching a JWKS with only a 4097-bit RSA key returns ErrProviderUnavailable and no keys. With a valid 2048-bit key present, the test expects only that valid key to be fetched.
Redirect guard and cases internal/sso/redirect.go, web/test/fixtures/ssoRedirect.json	SafeRedirect now rejects paths beginning with /\. Fixtures add accepted root-relative query and fragment cases and rejected same-domain absolute URLs, control characters, double-encoded backslashes, dot segments, and encoded tabs.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to d59dc

No concrete merge-blocking issue remains. Adding a 4096-bit RSA acceptance case would strengthen regression coverage but is not required to fix current behavior.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the two main parts of the changeset: a JOSE security patch (the go-jose upgrade from v4.1.4 to v4.1.7 in go.mod) and redirect guard changes (SafeRedirect now rejects /\ in addition to //). The title is specific, follows the conventional commit style, and matches the PR objectives. It is 64 characters, which is within a normal length for a title.

Cover the 4096-bit RSA boundary in the JWKS size test.

Cover the 4096-bit RSA boundary in the JWKS size test.

TestJWKSRejectsOversizedRSAKeys checks a 4097-bit modulus and a 2048-bit key. It does not check a 4096-bit modulus. The go-jose v4.1.7 limit accepts that size, and the current code keeps such a key. A change that rejects keys at or above the limit would still pass both cases.

Add a case with a 4096-bit modulus. The case should expect fetch to retain the key.

Update TestJWKSRejectsOversizedRSAKeys to include a 4096-bit RSA key and assert
that fetch retains it, preserving the existing rejection case for 4097-bit keys.
