Full details: Description checkExplanation The description explains the SSRF changes, tests, validation results, security behavior, and linked issue. It does not provide the required full SHA or the required Scope and assignment, Architecture and security, and checklist confirmations from the repository template. Resolution Add the exact reviewed head SHA, reproduce the required template sections, complete the Scope and assignment checklist, confirm each applicable Architecture and security requirement, and complete the full Validation checklist. State any unavailable validation items explicitly, including the required independent maintainer approval for the exact head SHA. Full details: Linked Issues checkExplanation The implementation addresses the coding objectives in Resolution Provide reviewable CI evidence for the required test, build, lint, security, migration, and artifact-drift checks, or identify the applicable checks that do not apply to this metadata-only change.

- Line 120: Update the gateway port validation around url.port to reject every
nonempty port, relying on Node’s URL normalization for explicit default ports.
Add port tests covering https with port 80 and http with port 443.
- Line 27: Add the IPv6 documentation prefix 2001:db8::/32 to the blocked ranges
used by getGatewayUrl, so getAvailabilityStatus cannot classify gateways in that
range as AVAILABLE. Add a regression test covering an HTTP gateway URL with an
address in this range.

Reject the IPv6 documentation range before reporting availability.
getGatewayUrl does not block 2001:db8::/32. If a provider returns http://[2001:db8::1]/ipfs/QmTest, getAvailabilityStatus can report AVAILABLE, contrary to the documented fail-closed gateway contract. This path does not fetch the URL server-side, so the issue is an availability classification bug, not an SSRF exploit. Add the range and a regression test.

Match the permitted port to the URL scheme.
This condition accepts https://gateway.example:80 and http://gateway.example:443. Both use nonstandard ports for their schemes, contrary to the new gateway policy. Reject any nonempty url.port: Node 20 normalizes an explicit default port to the empty string. Add both cross-scheme cases to the port tests. (nodejs.org)

Hi @dDevAhmed , I merged the latest main into the PR branch and pushed updated head 87d4dd6. The PR-specific IPFS gateway tests pass (12/12), and focused lint passes. However, I can’t confirm required CI is green: GitHub currently reports only CodeRabbit, with review skipped pending manual review. The full local suite and build are not green due to errors in the merged upstream code and a local Node/TypeScript version mismatch. Could you confirm whether repository CI can be triggered, or whether you’d like me to address those broader baseline failures separately? |

Closes #461
Summary
Hardened evidence gateway URL handling against SSRF-sensitive destinations while preserving the existing read-only V2 evidence architecture.
Changes
BlockListvalidation for private, loopback, link-local, cloud-metadata, reserved, multicast, and IPv4-mapped IPv6 destinations.Validation
npm ci: succeeds after dependency alignment.Security
Unsafe gateway URLs return
undefined. No protocol-authoritative state or mutation path was added. The V2 backend currently stores metadata pointers but does not perform server-side fetching.Independent maintainer approval of the exact head SHA is required.
