🛡️ Sentinel has identified and fixed two critical path-related vulnerabilities:

  1. Path Traversal in LocalJsonStore: The LocalJsonStore was vulnerable to path traversal through .. injection in keys. I've updated toPath to explicitly block these segments and perform a robust absolute path prefix check to ensure all file operations stay within the base directory.
  2. Prefix Bypass in TerminalService: The resolveCwd method used a naive startsWith check which was vulnerable to prefix bypass (e.g., /workspace-secret would match an allowed /workspace). I've implemented a ensureTrailingSep helper to ensure correct directory-level containment checks.

Both fixes have been verified with new and updated unit tests, and the full test suite passes.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 4939822673830252959 started by @hackerxj2010

- Fixed path traversal in `LocalJsonStore` by blocking `..` segments and adding absolute path containment checks.
- Fixed prefix bypass in `TerminalService.resolveCwd` by ensuring trailing separators in path containment checks.
- Added comprehensive unit tests for both fixes.
- Recorded learnings in `.jules/sentinel.md`.
