🛡️ Sentinel: [MEDIUM] Fix BiDi spoofing

[seonghobae]

🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
💡 Vulnerability: 파일명이나 디렉토리명에 유니코드 양방향 텍스트 제어 문자(BiDi)가 삽입될 경우(예: RTL 문자 삽입), 브라우저 렌더링 시 원래의 확장자나 정보를 숨기고 악성 파일로 위장할 수 있는 보안 취약점이 존재했습니다.
🎯 Impact: 공격자가 악의적으로 조작된 이름의 파일을 생성하여 사용자를 속이고 실행 파일 등을 무해한 파일로 위장할 수 있습니다.
🔧 Fix: .escapeHtml() 함수 내에 BiDi 제어 문자를 가시적인 유니코드 시퀀스(예: \u202E)로 이스케이프 처리하도록 로직을 추가했습니다. 또한, 사용자 제어 문자열(제목, 디렉토리 링크)이 렌더링될 때 ⁨ (FSI)와 ⁩ (PDI)로 감싸어 브라우저의 양방향 텍스트 렌더링을 완전히 격리했습니다.
✅ Verification: ./gradlew test를 실행하여 새롭게 렌더링된 FSI/PDI 코드가 포함된 테스트 코드가 정상적으로 작동함을 확인했습니다.

P1 — exact bd44bc9a322ce644e56f2de8b51b48e2775b85e1 still leaves one Unicode BiDi control active.

The new escapeHtml() table covers LRM/RLM, embedding/override controls, and isolate controls, but omits U+061C ARABIC LETTER MARK (ALM). Unicode UAX #9 rev. 52 / Unicode 18.0.0 classifies ALM together with LRM and RLM as an implicit directional formatting character with the Bidi_Control property: https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr9/ . Because ALM is zero-width and still reaches the rendered filename/title unchanged on this head, the implementation does not yet satisfy the PR's stated contract that BiDi controls are made visible before rendering. FSI/PDI around the value limits interaction with surrounding text, but it does not turn an unescaped ALM inside the filename into visible evidence.

RED: add a real filename/directory fixture containing \u061C (plus controls for LRM/RLM/RLO/LRI/FSI/PDI) and render the generated index. Assert that no attacker-supplied Bidi_Control survives as a raw code point in the visible filename, <title>, or tooltip/title attribute, while the escaped literal remains attributable to the original filename. Keep a legitimate Arabic/Hebrew filename without explicit control characters as a positive control so normal RTL text is not damaged.

GREEN: extend the single canonical BiDi-control escaping boundary to ALM (preferably derive/lock the complete UAX #9 Bidi_Control set rather than maintaining an undocumented partial list), retain the existing outer isolation, and document the Unicode version/reference used. No need to broaden this into general RTL stripping: ordinary Arabic/Hebrew letters are content, not control characters.

Do not mark the MEDIUM spoofing repair complete until that hostile fixture is GREEN on this exact successor head.

Unicode Standard U+061C ARABIC LETTER MARK bidirectional behavior inside FSI PDI isolate

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
In the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm (UBA), U+061C ARABIC LETTER MARK (ALM) functions as a strong right-to-left directional character [1][2]. Its bidirectional behavior when placed inside an FSI (First Strong Isolate)... PDI (Pop Directional Isolate) sequence is consistent with its property as a strong directional mark [1]. Specifically: 1. Within an FSI... PDI sequence, the FSI initiates an isolate whose directional embedding level is determined by applying rules P2 and P3 of the UBA to the content within the isolate as if it were a separate paragraph [1][3]. 2. When the ALM is present within this content, it acts as a strong right-to-left character during this directional determination [1][4]. If the ALM (or any other strong directional character) determines the first strong directional type of that isolated content, it influences the resolution of the isolate&#39;s direction [1][5]. 3. Outside of the specific logic for determining the isolate&#39;s direction, ALM is treated as a zero-width character that does not appear in the display [1][2]. Within an isolating run sequence, ALM is treated just like any other strong character; it affects the ordering of characters in its immediate vicinity according to standard bidi rules, but its scope is confined to the isolated run [1][6][7]. In summary, ALM does not have special "isolate-aware" behavior; rather, it performs its standard role as a strong right-to-left directional mark, which contributes to the content&#39;s directionality when evaluated by the FSI mechanism [1][4].

That is because their effect on bidirectional ordering is exactly the same as a corresponding strong directional character; the only difference is that they do not appear in the display. 2.7 Markup and Formatting Characters The explicit formatting characters introduce state into the plain text, which must be maintained when editing or displaying the text. Processes that are modifying the text without being aware of this state may inadvertently affect the rendering of large portions of the text, for example by removing a PDF. The Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm is designed so that the use of explicit formatting characters can be equivalently represented by out-of-line information, such as stylesheet information or markup. Conflicts can arise if markup and explicitly formatting characters are both used in the same paragraph. Where available, markup should be used instead of the explicit formatting characters: for more information, see [UnicodeXML]. However, any alternative representation is only to be defined by reference to the behavior of the corresponding explicit formatting characters in this algorithm, to ensure conformance with the Unicode Standard. HTML5 [HTML5] and CSS3 [CSS3Writing] provide support for bidi markup as follows: | U+200E U+200F U+061C | LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK ARABIC LETTER MARK | Left-to-right zero-width character Right-to-left zero-width non-Arabic character Right-to-left zero-width Arabic character | | | ... | --- | --- | --- | ...
