feat(apicp): Test console with a BFF relay and a proxy/direct switch - #3683
ShavinAnjithaAlpha wants to merge 3 commits into
Conversation
- Add a Swagger UI editor proxy transport plugin with a call-mode switch. - Sync executed requests between the Test Console and cURL view. - Render gateway URLs and response data in the Swagger UI editor instead of the actual call made. - Persist the Test Console call mode across renders using localStorage. - Add a Test Console UI editor to the test page alongside the cURL view, toggled via a switch.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Some failed console requests can show a misleading refusal or an unformatted error. These bounded issues should be fixed or accepted before merging. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟠 High · up to The console can now send requests from the server’s network. Destination restrictions are optional by default, so tenant-managed gateway addresses may expose internal services beyond the intended gateways. Authorization checks and credential isolation reduce risk, but do not replace network containment. Request processing also begins before capacity limits apply. Retained concerns

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Return a timeout when target resolution reaches its deadline.
If the Platform API does not finish within testResolveTimeout, Resolve returns an error. The error branch then returns 403 TARGET_NOT_ALLOWED. The console reports a target-policy refusal for a transient timeout. Check resolveCtx.Err() before the policy-error response and return a timeout response when the deadline expired.

Validate relay header entries before converting the response.
If a successful relay reply contains headers: [null], isRelayResult accepts it because it checks only that headers is an array. toResponseLike then throws a TypeError while destructuring the entry, before its try block. Check that every entry has string name and value fields, and add a relay-response test for this case.

Purpose
The Test page could only build a cURL command, there was no way to actually send a request from the portal. Having the browser call the gateway directly doesn't work in practice, for three independent reasons:
corspolicy.So the console needs a server-side relay. That relay dials an address derived from tenant-controlled data, which makes it an SSRF surface that has to be bounded deliberately.
Resolves https://github.com/wso2-enterprise/apim-product-management/issues/505, https://github.com/wso2-enterprise/apim-product-management/issues/459
Goals
Approach
UI
The Test page gains a Console / cURL view switch. The Console view mounts
TestConsoleSpecViewer— a sibling of the existingSwaggerSpecViewer, not a change to it, since that component is mounted by two already-shipped pages.The spec's
serversentry is rewritten to the selected gateway's invoke URL (withServerUrl), and arequestInterceptorinjects the test key as a header or query parameter per the API'sapi-key-authpolicy. So the request Swagger builds, displays, and puts in its curl snippet is the real gateway call.The Through proxy / Direct switch sits in the Gateway card, Console view only; a copied cURL command leaves from the user's own terminal, so neither mode applies to it. The choice persists in
localStorage, because it tracks where the user's browser sits relative to the gateway, not anything about the API.Direct mode is the absence of a transport override, not a second one:
swagger-client calls
request.userFetch || fetch, so omitting the key is what sends the browser straight at the gateway. The mode is read per Execute rather than captured —swagger-ui-reactkeeps only the firstpluginsvalue it is given.Screenshots
BFF
Design Doc for the BFF proxy: Link
One endpoint:
POST /api/test-console/invoke. The browser posts a JSON envelope and gets one back; it never names a URL.internal/testproxy/resolve.go) — the browser names(orgHandle, restApiId, gatewayId). The BFF asks Platform API with the caller's own token, so entitlement is Platform API's decision, not re-implemented here. The gateway must be one the API is actually deployed to. Results are cached on a digest of the token, so one caller's resolution can't serve another.sanitize.go) — method allowlisted (no CONNECT/TRACE), CR/LF/NUL rejected, path containment checked on the decoded path, andCookie/Host/ hop-by-hop /X-Forwarded-*refused from the caller.client.go) — this package never receives the session token, so it is structurally incapable of leaking it to a tenant-controlled gateway. Headers are assigned, not merged. Redirects are never followed. Bounded pool with a bounded queue; oversized responses truncate rather than fail.application/json. A gateway'sSet-CookieandContent-Typetravel as JSON string data, never as headers on the portal origin.HTTP status is never overloaded: a gateway that answered at all is a successful relay (200, with its status inside). Only the relay's own failures carry an error status (
TARGET_NOT_ALLOWED403,RELAY_BUSY503,UPSTREAM_TIMEOUT504,UPSTREAM_UNREACHABLE502, …).Egress policy
New
internal/egresspackage. Two rules only:denyalways wins.allownarrows when set, and is ignored when empty.There is deliberately no setting that re-opens something
denyclosed — netguard's wideningAllowCIDRsfield is never populated by this package, so the "a carve-out re-opened the metadata endpoint" class is unrepresentable rather than merely guarded against. Link-local/metadata, unspecified, multicast and the IPv4-translating IPv6 ranges (6to4, NAT64) are refused unconditionally.Host and port are checked at resolution — neither depends on DNS, so a refusal is a specific
403with the reason logged rather than a vague502. Addresses are checked inside the dial, which resolves and connects in one step to close DNS rebinding. The categorical checks are delegated tonetguard.Validateper resolved address rather than restated, so there is one implementation.httpkitis unmodified.Full write-up:
