Summary

  • Serialize new HWID registrations so concurrent requests cannot exceed a user's device limit.
  • Apply the manual subscription HWID policy to links returned by /sub/{token}/raw.
  • Omit proxy credentials from public subscription metadata (/info and /raw).
  • Reject empty, oversized, and control-character HWID headers before database writes.

Verification

  • Existing HWID API suite: 7 passed on a fresh SQLite database.
  • Related subscription tests: 4 passed.
  • Ruff check and format check passed for all four changed Python files.
  • git diff --check passed.
  • The earlier atomic-registration implementation passed the repository's SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and TimescaleDB CI jobs; checks are rerunning for this combined revision.

Scope

The PR diff contains application code only. HWID remains a client-supplied identifier; downloaded proxy credentials are not bound to hardware at connection time.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Device registrations now respect device limits, including when multiple registrations happen at once. Blank device identifiers are treated as absent, while invalid or overly long identifiers are rejected.
    • Subscription metadata no longer includes proxy connection settings.
    • Browser configuration links are shown according to the manual-subscription and device-verification settings.

Walkthrough

The change validates HWID headers, enforces device limits during registration, omits proxy settings from subscription responses, and applies HWID settings when returning browser configuration links.

Changes

Subscription HWID handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
HWID header validation
app/models/subscription.py, tests/api/test_hwid.py
Blank HWID headers become absent, and invalid length or control characters are rejected. Tests cover header validation and device metadata clipping.
Atomic registration and subscription enforcement
app/db/crud/hwid.py, app/operation/subscription.py, tests/api/test_hwid.py
HWID registration locks database state and checks the optional device limit. Subscription validation raises 403 when registration returns False. A concurrency test checks that only one registration succeeds at a limit of one.
Subscription response and browser-link rules
app/models/user.py, app/operation/subscription.py, tests/api/test_hwid.py
Subscription responses omit proxy_settings. Raw responses include browser configuration links only when the HWID settings allow them.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

A subscription request can register an HWID containing a control character. Close this bounded validation gap; the change otherwise appears mergeable with owner awareness.

I’m a rabbit, hopping by,
I check each HWID as I fly.
Blank headers fade away,
Limits guide the count each day.
Secret settings stay out of sight,
Config links follow rules just right.

A blank or whitespace X-HWID is what some clients send when device ID is
off. The new validator turned it into a 400 on every subscription route,
even with HWID disabled; it now counts as no header again. Oversized
values and control characters are still rejected.

Tests: blank and oversized X-HWID, long device info headers (clipped to
the user_hwids column sizes by the crud), four concurrent registrations
against a limit of 1 on independent connections, no proxy_settings in
/info and /raw, and the /raw manual-sub HWID gate.

Reject C1 control characters in HWIDs.

If X-HWID contains device\x85one, this check accepts U+0085 because its code point exceeds 127. Registration can then store a control character in the HWID. Reject the Unicode Cc category as well as the controls already covered, and add a test with an embedded C1 character. HTTP permits the relevant header octet, and Unicode classifies U+0085 as a control character. (rfc-editor.org)

Header bytes arrive decoded as latin-1, so 0x80-0x9f reach the
validator as C1 controls (for example U+0085), and the check only
covered C0 and DEL. Reject every character in Unicode category Cc and
test C0, DEL and C1 bytes.
