🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
💡 Vulnerability: The application was exposing the raw exception string (e.g. f"Upload failed: {e}") in HTTP 500 error responses returned to the user in the /projects/{project_id}/ingest endpoint (routes.py). This could leak internal system details, stack information, or underlying environment configurations.
🎯 Impact: Attackers could gain insights into the application's internal structure and potentially discover further vulnerabilities.
🔧 Fix: Modified the except block to capture the detailed error message via logger.error for internal debugging, while explicitly setting the user-facing HTTPException detail to a safe, generic message.
✅ Verification: Review the file changes and confirm tests pass.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 17679758009900623516 started by @socialawy

Modified `src/audioformation/server/routes.py` to prevent raw exception
strings from leaking in `HTTPException` details. Errors are now logged
internally while clients receive generic responses.

Code Review

This pull request addresses an information leakage vulnerability by ensuring that raw exception details are not exposed in HTTP 500 responses during file ingestion. Instead, it logs the error internally and returns a generic "Upload failed" message. Additionally, it documents this vulnerability in .jules/sentinel.md and updates dependency constraints for mypy and ruff in uv.lock. The reviewer suggested using logger.exception instead of logger.error to preserve the full stack trace for better debugging.

except Exception as e:
shutil.rmtree(tmp_dir, ignore_errors=True)
raise HTTPException(status_code=500, detail=f"Upload failed: {e}")
logger.error(f"Upload failed: {e}")

Using logger.error with only the exception string e discards the stack trace, making it difficult to diagnose the root cause of the failure in production. Using logger.exception instead will automatically capture and log the full traceback.

Suggested change
logger.error(f"Upload failed: {e}")
logger.exception("Upload failed")
