Branch: agent-v2-dev
Status: Active development - not yet merged to main
- Implemented 5-layer pattern matching for comprehensive credential protection
- AWS Access Key IDs (AKIA*, ASIA*, AIDA*, AROA*) detection and redaction
- AWS Secret Access Keys (40-char base64) detection
- Session tokens (60+ chars) detection
- Medium-entropy secrets (16-59 chars) with AWS resource ID whitelisting
- JWT token detection (header.payload.signature pattern)
- Preserves AWS resource IDs (i-, sg-, vpc-, vol-, ami-, etc.)
- Replaced blocklist with strict allowlist-based sanitization
- Strips ALL structural characters from AWS resource names
- Neutralizes dangerous keywords (ACTION, OBSERVE, SYSTEM, USER, IGNORE, OVERRIDE)
- 200-character length limit enforcement
- Prevents EC2 Name tag injection attacks
- Added comprehensive input validation for all tool parameters
- Sanitizes shell metacharacters (
;,|,&,<,>,\n,\r) - 100-character parameter length limit
- Multiple action detection prevents batch execution exploits
- Prevents command injection via action parameters

- QUARANTINE requires full instance ID re-entry (not just y/n)
- MODIFY_SG requires full instance ID re-entry
- DEACTIVATE_ACCESS_KEY requires full access key ID re-entry
- 1-second delay prevents accidental rapid confirmations
- Clear "CRITICAL ACTION" warnings with detailed impact descriptions
- Implemented XOR encryption for session_state.json using GITHUB_TOKEN as key
- XOR encryption for session_kg.json (Knowledge Graph)
- Atomic write pattern with temporary files
- Restrictive file permissions (0600 on Unix systems)
- Automatic migration from plaintext to encrypted format

- Removed
^and$anchors that prevented multi-action detection - Now correctly identifies when AI attempts batch execution

- QUICK_START.md - Quick reference guide for new users
- Added copyright notices to all documentation files
- Converted all timestamps to GMT/UTC
- Removed emojis for professional enterprise tone
- Corrected alpha release labeling (not production-ready)
- Added pre-production requirements checklist
- Redaction engine now uses 5-layer pattern matching
- HITL prompts display "CRITICAL ACTION" warnings with impact descriptions

- Command list displayed with descriptions in formatted table
- Created deployment-package/ directory with all necessary files
- Generated zero-shield-v2.0.0-alpha-updated.zip (75 KB)
- Includes automated deployment script (deploy_to_cloudshell.sh)
- Ready for AWS CloudShell deployment
- Integration Tests: 66/66 passed (100%)
- Security Tests: 35/35 passed (100%)
- Overall Quality: APPROVED FOR DEVELOPMENT TESTING
IMPORTANT: These are integration tests with mocked AWS responses, NOT true end-to-end tests. Production deployment requires additional testing with live AWS environments.
