Summary

Scoped re-implementation of PR #1748 per the 260818 campaign disposition matrix (REDESIGN-SMALL: outbound-only fake-IP proxy routing, avoiding the SSRF widening the original had).

  • resolvePublicAddresses gains an explicit allowBenchmarkAddresses opt-in: a hostname answer in 198.18.0.0/15 (IANA benchmark space — Clash/Surge/Mihomo fake-IP DNS) is accepted without marking the destination private, so the hostname keeps its configured HTTP(S) proxy path.
  • Containment: literal 198.18.x URLs still reject; mixed answers containing any other non-public address still reject; callers that do not pass the flag (image fetch, Lab fetch — full caller sweep in the plan audit) keep rejecting.
  • provider-outbound arms the opt-in only when an outbound proxy is configured (proxyConfigured), so the hostname rides the proxy CONNECT instead of pin-connecting to the fake IP. The NO_PROXY per-host corner is documented at the call site.
  • Supersedes and credits fix(outbound): route Clash fake-IP discoveries through the HTTP proxy #1748 (luvs01). Campaign unit: devlog/_plan/260818_bug_pr_resolution (020 doc).

Verification

  • bun test ./tests/destination-policy-resolved.test.ts ./tests/provider-outbound.test.ts — 43 pass / 0 fail (5 new destination-policy cases: opt-in accept, no-opt-in reject, mixed reject, literal reject, image-fetch reject + proxy integration cases)
  • bun x tsc --noEmit exit 0
  • Adversarial plan audit (r2): all callers of resolvePublicAddresses swept; no unflagged caller affected

Checklist

  • Focused tests added and passing
  • Typecheck green
  • No new dependencies
  • Original PR credited; will be closed with a pointer here

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved proxied provider requests using Clash fake-IP benchmark addresses.
    • Benchmark address resolutions remain blocked for direct requests and unsupported destinations.
    • Mixed private and benchmark address results continue to require private-network access.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for proxied and direct fake-IP resolution scenarios, including hostname and literal IP requests.

…d proxy (#1748)

Scoped re-implementation of PR #1748 per the campaign disposition
(REDESIGN-SMALL, outbound-only):

- resolvePublicAddresses gains an explicit allowBenchmarkAddresses opt-in:
  a HOSTNAME answer in 198.18.0.0/15 (IANA benchmark space, the
  Clash/Surge/Mihomo fake-IP DNS range) is accepted without marking the
  destination private. Literal 198.18.x URLs still reject, mixed answers
  containing any other non-public address still reject, and callers that
  do not pass the flag (image fetch, Lab fetch) keep rejecting — the SSRF
  widening the original PR had is avoided.
- provider-outbound passes allowBenchmarkAddresses only when an outbound
  HTTP(S) proxy is configured, so the hostname rides the proxy CONNECT
  instead of pin-connecting to the fake IP. NO_PROXY corner documented.
- 5 destination-policy cases + proxy integration cases.

Changes

Benchmark address policy

Layer / File(s) Summary
Destination policy opt-in and validation
src/lib/destination-policy.ts, tests/destination-policy-resolved.test.ts
resolvePublicAddresses adds allowBenchmarkAddresses. DNS-resolved 198.18.0.0/15 addresses are accepted only with opt-in. Literal benchmark URLs, mixed unsafe results, and non-opted-in image or Lab resolutions remain rejected.
Proxy-aware provider resolution
src/lib/provider-outbound.ts, tests/provider-outbound.test.ts
Provider resolution enables benchmark addresses when a proxy is configured. Proxied requests use hostname-based fetching. Requests without a proxy reject benchmark destinations before transport.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to e3bbf

When NO_PROXY excludes a hostname, the new behavior can accept its fake-IP DNS answer and connect directly instead of using the configured proxy, undermining the PR’s containment goal. Merge should wait for the opt-in to require an effective proxy route and for a regression test covering this case.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Require an effective proxy route before enabling benchmark addresses.

Line 161 enables the opt-in from global proxy configuration only. If NO_PROXY matches this hostname, the accepted benchmark result has privateNetwork: false, so lines 174-176 call globalThis.fetch and bypass the proxy. The request then connects directly to the fake IP.

Derive the opt-in from both proxy configuration and !noProxyMatches(parsed). Add a regression test with NO_PROXY=www.packyapi.com that verifies benchmark resolution stays rejected and no transport runs.

Proposed fix
   const parsed = postUrl ?? new URL(url);
   const proxyConfigured = configuredProxyFor();
+  const proxyAppliesToDestination = proxyConfigured && !noProxyMatches(parsed);
   const resolveAddresses = dependencies.resolveAddresses ?? resolvePublicAddresses;

The fake-IP compatibility direction is sound, but the current head widens the destination policy before it knows that this host will actually use the proxy.

allowBenchmarkAddresses is derived from global proxy presence alone. When the provider hostname matches NO_PROXY, the resolver therefore accepts a 198.18/15 answer and resolved.privateNetwork remains false; the next branch calls globalThis.fetch, which honors NO_PROXY and directly connects to the benchmark address. That contradicts the PR's stated hostname-CONNECT boundary and admits a previously blocked non-public destination on a direct path.

Please arm the benchmark exception only when a proxy is configured and !noProxyMatches(parsed). Add an exact regression with NO_PROXY=www.packyapi.com that proves the benchmark answer is rejected and neither the proxy fetch nor pinned direct transport is invoked. Keep literal benchmark URLs and mixed unsafe DNS answers rejected as they are now. This is an outbound security-policy boundary, so I am requesting changes rather than approving the otherwise focused implementation.

Follow-up #2045 covers the remaining per-host routing boundary from this merge. The benchmark exception was armed from global proxy presence, but a NO_PROXY match makes Bun take a direct route; that allowed a 198.18/15 DNS answer on a path whose policy previously rejected it.

The follow-up enables the exception only when the exact host will use the proxy and adds a regression proving a NO_PROXY-matched fake-IP answer invokes neither proxy fetch nor pinned direct transport. Focused destination/outbound tests (44), typecheck, and privacy scan are green; independent review and CI are pending.
