Ports 2 commits from upstream (rmyndharis/OpenWA) as part of a security-batch review of the last 2 weeks of upstream changes.

  • b2a6ac19 fix(storage): warn when s3 storage has no credentials
  • c9ae0646 fix(storage): name the S3 credential that is actually missing

STORAGE_TYPE=s3 with no S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID/S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY previously built no S3 client and silently fell back to writing every file to local disk, with no log output at all. Now warns at startup, naming only the credential half that's actually unset and the local dir files are landing in instead.

Not included from the same batch

Three other upstream security-adjacent commits were left out because they depend on features this fork hasn't ported yet:

  • 2c8a8c9c session-proxy key scoping — needs session-proxy.dto.ts (per-session proxy feature)
  • 52699062 proxy creds excluded from data export — needs export-tables.ts (Integration Fabric export)
  • 23aba455 allowedSessions widening fix — needs SessionScopePicker.tsx dashboard component

Porting those requires pulling in their prerequisite feature commits first — separate, larger effort.

Validation

  • npm run build — clean
  • npm run lint — clean
  • npm test -- src/common/storage/storage.service.s3.spec.ts — 5/5 passed
  • 1 conflict resolved manually: CHANGELOG.md append point (kept this fork's empty [Unreleased], added a ### Fixed entry for these 2 commits)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Added startup warnings when S3 storage is configured without required credentials.
    • Warnings identify only the missing credential and clarify that file operations will use local storage.
    • Prevented default S3 credentials from appearing in warnings.
    • Clarified that incomplete S3 configuration falls back to local storage instead of failing silently.
  • Documentation

    • Documented S3 fallback behavior, credential requirements, local-disk usage, and warning messages.

STORAGE_TYPE=s3 without S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID and S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY builds
no client, and every write falls through to the local directory. The
fallback is deliberate, but it was the one degradation in this service
that produced no output at all: the S3 logging all lives past the client
construction, so an operator saw an empty bucket and had no failure to
point at. A hand-written .env is where this happens, since the
dashboard writes the built-in MinIO credentials itself.

The warning names both variables and the directory the files are
actually landing in.
Reaching the local fallback with one half of the pair set is a typo in
the other, and a warning that called every credential absent pointed the
operator at the one they got right. List only what is unset.

The architecture excerpt in docs/03 mirrors this constructor and had no
else branch either, so a reader tracing the same logic saw no sign that
the fallback exists.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

S3 initialization now warns when credentials are missing. The warning names only the absent variables and states that storage uses the local directory. Tests and documentation cover full and partial credential omissions.

Changes

S3 fallback warning

Layer / File(s) Summary
Credential warning and validation
src/common/storage/storage.service.ts, src/common/storage/storage.service.s3.spec.ts
StorageService no longer logs built-in MinIO credentials. Tests verify warnings for missing credentials, local fallback, and partial credentials without S3 client creation.
Fallback documentation
docs/03-system-architecture.md, CHANGELOG.md
Documentation and the unreleased changelog entry describe the warning and local-disk fallback.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to b5a92

Missing S3 credentials now produce a clear startup warning identifying absent variables and the local fallback directory. The change is covered by passing validation and is ready to merge.

Assert the fallback directory in the warning.

The warning contract includes the local directory, but this test checks only the missing credential names. Assert that the message contains path.join(tmpRoot, 'media'); otherwise the diagnostic can lose its most useful path while the suite remains green. Apparently the important breadcrumb is the one nobody tested, Morty.

Address review: drop MinIO default-credential text from the s3
warning (name only the missing vars + fallback path), and assert
the warning names the local fallback dir.
