  "details": "### Summary\n\nArc registers Go\u0027s `net/http/pprof` handlers at `/debug/pprof/*` via `app.Use(pprof.New())` in `internal/api/server.go`, and `/debug/pprof` is added to `PublicPrefixes` in `cmd/arc/main.go`. The auth middleware short-circuits before the token check on prefix match, so the endpoints are reachable without any authentication.\n\n### Impact\n\nAny network-reachable caller (no token required) can:\n\n- Fetch `/debug/pprof/heap` \u2014 leaks in-memory state: live SQL strings, decoded msgpack records, decompressed request bodies, cached `*TokenInfo` (the auth cache keys on SHA-256 of the plaintext token at `auth.go:543`).\n- Fetch `/debug/pprof/goroutine?debug=2` \u2014 leaks call stacks, identifying internal code paths.\n- Fetch `/debug/pprof/profile?seconds=N` \u2014 pins a CPU core for arbitrary duration. Trivial DoS amplification (one short HTTP request \u2192 minutes of server CPU).\n- Fetch `/debug/pprof/trace` \u2014 long-duration execution trace, similar DoS profile.\n\nNo authentication, no rate limiting, no resource bound on the `seconds` parameter.\n\n### Patches\n\nhttps://github.com/Basekick-Labs/arc/releases/tag/v26.06.1\n\nPlanned mitigation:\n\n1. Gate pprof registration behind an env var (`ARC_DEBUG_PPROF=1`) that defaults to off.\n2. When enabled, bind pprof to a separate localhost-only listener (`127.0.0.1:6060` via dedicated `net/http` server) so it\u0027s never reachable from the public API port.\n3. Remove `/debug/pprof` from `PublicPrefixes`.\n4. Fix the `HasPrefix` bug where `\"/debug/pprofX\"` matches `\"/debug/pprof\"`.\n\n### Workarounds\n\n- Block `/debug/pprof*` at a reverse proxy / load balancer in front of Arc.\n- Restrict Arc\u0027s API port to known-trusted networks via firewall rules.\n- Patch the running build: comment out `app.Use(pprof.New())` in `internal/api/server.go` and rebuild.\n\n### Credits\n\nReported by Alex Manson ([@NeuroWinter](https://github.com/NeuroWinter), https://neurowinter.com/) on 2026-05-19.",
