Conversation
Summary of ChangesHello @alkalescent, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed! This pull request enhances the Inter-Process Communication (IPC) mechanism by enabling the transparent forwarding of generic gRPC metadata between services. It achieves this by serializing incoming gRPC context metadata into Highlights

Code Review
This pull request introduces a mechanism to forward gRPC metadata across Inter-Process Communication (IPC) calls by encoding them as HTTP headers. However, the IPCUnaryServerInterceptor implementation is insecure, as it blindly promotes any HTTP header with the x-ipc-meta- prefix to the request's gRPC metadata context. This poses a significant risk of metadata spoofing, potentially bypassing security controls like tenant isolation. A strict allow-list for forwarded metadata keys is crucial to mitigate this. Additionally, the review suggests improving code clarity, simplifying the server interceptor, and implementing an explicit allow-list for the client interceptor to prevent potential side effects.

should we wrap ipcMetadataHeaderPrefix+key with http.CanonicalHeaderKey()? the restore logic below looks like it expects that format
