From fcb8997eccef89b39c23c5dc5c4bfe6e7fb767db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiayuan Zhang Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 13:20:34 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] fix(profile): sanitize requesting-user name in brief; route getMe through schema fallback Two follow-ups from Emacs's review on MUL-2406: - runtime_config.go injected `RequestingUserName` raw into `**%s**` in the brief. A name with embedded CR/LF (allowed by `PATCH /api/me`'s outer-trim only, and Google display names) could open a new `## ...` heading and bypass the blockquote guard on the profile description. Add `sanitizeNameForBriefMarkdown` to collapse whitespace, drop C0 controls, and escape inline-markdown structural chars before substitution. Cover the regression with a brief test (newline-laden name + Available Commands payload) and table tests for the sanitizer itself. - `client.ts:getMe()` still bypassed `parseWithFallback`, so a server missing `profile_description` would surface `undefined` to the initial auth load while `updateMe`/PATCH was already guarded. Run GET /api/me through the same `UserSchema` + `EMPTY_USER` fallback to keep the GET/PATCH compatibility boundary symmetric.
