🛡️ Sentinel: [MEDIUM] Fix Information Leakage via RPC Errors#78DerUntote wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
Replaced raw RPC `err.message` output to Discord users with generic error messages (`An internal error occurred.`) and logged the original errors internally (`console.error(err)`). This prevents exposing sensitive backend infrastructure details or internal states to end-users if a coin daemon transaction fails. Modified all corresponding modules: vtlTipper, protonTipper, ufoTipper, rvnTipper, ftcTipper, pxcTipper, dogeTipper, lbcTipper, and exampleTipper. Also added a journal entry to `.jules/sentinel.md` documenting this security pattern. Co-authored-by: DerUntote <8378077+DerUntote@users.noreply.github.com>

🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
💡 Vulnerability: Internal RPC errors from coin daemons (like bitcoind-rpc) were being sent directly to Discord users via
message.reply(err.message). Sending raw error messages from backend services to end-users can leak sensitive information about the infrastructure, file paths, or node configuration.🎯 Impact: Attackers could potentially gather information about the underlying infrastructure or internal states to exploit other vulnerabilities.
🔧 Fix: Handled the errors by logging them internally via
console.error(err)and returning a safe, generic error message to the user (message.reply('An internal error occurred.')).✅ Verification: Tested the syntax via
node -cfor all modified module files. Formatted via Prettier. Created.jules/sentinel.mdwith the critical learning to avoid this in the future.PR created automatically by Jules for task 8212181340278507154 started by @DerUntote
