* Fix SFTP file upload failures with JWT filer tokens (issue #8425)
When JWT authentication is enabled for filer operations via jwt.filer_signing.*
configuration, SFTP server file upload requests were rejected because they lacked
JWT authorization headers.
Changes:
- Added JWT signing key and expiration fields to SftpServer struct
- Modified putFile() to generate and include JWT tokens in upload requests
- Enhanced SFTPServiceOptions with JWT configuration fields
- Updated SFTP command startup to load and pass JWT config to service
This allows SFTP uploads to authenticate with JWT-enabled filers, consistent
with how other SeaweedFS components (S3 API, file browser) handle filer auth.
Fixes#8425

* fix: SFTP HomeDir path translation for user operations
When users have a non-root HomeDir (e.g., '/sftp/user'), their SFTP
operations should be relative to that directory. Previously, when a
user uploaded to '/' via SFTP, the path was not translated to their
home directory, causing 'permission denied for / for permission write'.
This fix adds a toAbsolutePath() method that implements chroot-like
behavior where the user's HomeDir becomes their root. All file and
directory operations now translate paths through this method.
Example: User with HomeDir='/sftp/user' uploading to '/' now correctly
maps to '/sftp/user'.
Fixes: https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs/issues/7470
* test: add SFTP integration tests
Add comprehensive integration tests for the SFTP server including:
- HomeDir path translation tests (verifies fix for issue #7470)
- Basic file upload/download operations
- Directory operations (mkdir, rmdir, list)
- Large file handling (1MB test)
- File rename operations
- Stat/Lstat operations
- Path edge cases (trailing slashes, .., unicode filenames)
- Admin root access verification
The test framework starts a complete SeaweedFS cluster with:
- Master server
- Volume server
- Filer server
- SFTP server with test user credentials
Test users are configured in testdata/userstore.json:
- admin: HomeDir=/ with full access
- testuser: HomeDir=/sftp/testuser with access to home
- readonly: HomeDir=/public with read-only access
* fix: correct SFTP HomeDir path translation and add CI
Fix path.Join issue where paths starting with '/' weren't joined correctly.
path.Join('/sftp/user', '/file') returns '/file' instead of '/sftp/user/file'.
Now we strip the leading '/' before joining.
Test improvements:
- Update go.mod to Go 1.24
- Fix weed binary discovery to prefer local build over PATH
- Add stabilization delay after service startup
- All 8 SFTP integration tests pass locally
Add GitHub Actions workflow for SFTP tests:
- Runs on push/PR affecting sftpd code or tests
- Tests HomeDir path translation, file ops, directory ops
- Covers issue #7470 fix verification
* security: update golang.org/x/crypto to v0.45.0
Addresses security vulnerability in golang.org/x/crypto < 0.45.0
* security: use proper SSH host key verification in tests
Replace ssh.InsecureIgnoreHostKey() with ssh.FixedHostKey() that
verifies the server's host key matches the known test key we generated.
This addresses CodeQL warning go/insecure-hostkeycallback.
Also updates go.mod to specify go 1.24.0 explicitly.
* security: fix path traversal vulnerability in SFTP toAbsolutePath
The previous implementation had a critical security vulnerability:
- Path traversal via '../..' could escape the HomeDir chroot jail
- Absolute paths were not correctly prefixed with HomeDir
The fix:
1. Concatenate HomeDir with userPath directly, then clean
2. Add security check to ensure final path stays within HomeDir
3. If traversal detected, safely return HomeDir instead
Also adds path traversal prevention tests to verify the fix.
* fix: address PR review comments
1. Fix SkipCleanup check to use actual test config instead of default
- Added skipCleanup field to SftpTestFramework struct
- Store config.SkipCleanup during Setup()
- Use f.skipCleanup in Cleanup() instead of DefaultTestConfig()
2. Fix path prefix check false positive in mkdir
- Changed from strings.HasPrefix(absPath, fs.user.HomeDir)
- To: absPath == fs.user.HomeDir || strings.HasPrefix(absPath, fs.user.HomeDir+"/")
- Prevents matching partial directory names (e.g., /sftp/username when HomeDir is /sftp/user)
* fix: check write permission on parent dir for mkdir
Aligns makeDir's permission check with newFileWriter for consistency.
To create a directory, a user needs write permission on the parent
directory, not mkdir permission on the new directory path.
* fix: refine SFTP path traversal logic and tests
1. Refine toAbsolutePath:
- Use path.Join with strings.TrimPrefix for idiomatic path construction
- Return explicit error on path traversal attempt instead of clamping
- Updated all call sites to handle the error
2. Add Unit Tests:
- Added sftp_server_test.go to verify toAbsolutePath logic
- Covers normal paths, root path, and various traversal attempts
3. Update Integration Tests:
- Updated PathTraversalPrevention test to reflect that standard SFTP clients
sanitize paths before sending. The test now verifies successful containment
within the jail rather than blocking (since the server receives a clean path).
- The server-side blocking is verified by the new unit tests.
4. Makefile:
- Removed -v from default test target
* fix: address PR comments on tests and makefile
1. Enhanced Unit Tests:
- Added edge cases (empty path, multiple slashes, trailing slash) to sftp_server_test.go
2. Makefile Improvements:
- Added 'all' target as default entry point
3. Code Clarity:
- Added comment to mkdir permission check explaining defensive nature of HomeDir check
* fix: address PR review comments on permissions and tests
1. Security:
- Added write permission check on target directory in renameEntry
2. Logging:
- Changed dispatch log verbosity from V(0) to V(1)
3. Testing:
- Updated Makefile .PHONY targets
- Added unit test cases for empty/root HomeDir behavior in toAbsolutePath
* fix: set SFTP starting directory to virtual root
1. Critical Fix:
- Changed sftp.WithStartDirectory from fs.user.HomeDir to '/'
- Prevents double-prefixing when toAbsolutePath translates paths
- Users now correctly start at their virtual root which maps to HomeDir
2. Test Improvements:
- Use pointer for homeDir in tests for clearer nil vs empty distinction
* fix: clean HomeDir at config load time
Clean HomeDir path when loading users from JSON config.
This handles trailing slashes and other path anomalies at the source,
ensuring consistency throughout the codebase and avoiding repeated
cleaning on every toAbsolutePath call.
* test: strengthen assertions and add error checking in SFTP tests
1. Add error checking for cleanup operations in TestWalk
2. Strengthen cwd assertion to expect '/' explicitly in TestCurrentWorkingDirectory
3. Add error checking for cleanup in PathTraversalPrevention test
