Summary

  • NaN-panic hardening: Replaced 12 bare partial_cmp().unwrap() calls on f32/f64 with .unwrap_or(Ordering::Equal) in production sort/max-by operations. A NaN float value in any of these paths would previously cause an unrecoverable panic!; the fix degrades gracefully to equality ordering instead. Affected crates: ruvllm (speculative sampling, HNSW router, pretrain pipeline, evaluation report, model registry), ruvector-dag (reasoning bank, bottleneck analysis), prime-radiant (hyperbolic energy), rvagent-wasm (MCP and gallery sort).
  • HTTP endpoint input validation (ruvector-server): Added bounds checks to the vector-search and upsert-points routes — rejects k=0, k > 10_000, empty query vectors, and query vectors exceeding 65,536 dimensions. Without these, a single malformed request could trigger HNSW's internal assertion or exhaust memory with an unbounded allocation.
  • Shell execution hardening (rvagent-cli): LocalFsBackend::execute previously invoked sh -c <command> with the full parent environment and no timeout enforcement. It now calls env_clear() + a safe-variable allowlist (PATH/HOME/USER/SHELL/LANG/TERM/TMPDIR/TZ), enforces the caller-supplied timeout_secs via a polling deadline, and caps stdout+stderr at 1 MB before returning. This matches the hardening already present in LocalShellBackend (ADR-103 C2/SEC-005/SEC-008).
  • Deprecated lint removal: Removed 129 occurrences of unused_unit = "allow" (deprecated, may have no effect in future Rust) and 3 occurrences of clippy::match_on_vec_items = "allow" (removed lint — superseded by clippy::indexing_slicing) from Cargo.toml files across the workspace.

Advisory status

  • bytes is already at 1.11.1 (>= 1.10.0 required by RUSTSEC-2026-0007) — no bump needed.
  • paste 1.0.15 is a transitive dependency; RUSTSEC-2024-0436 marks it unmaintained but no patched version exists upstream. Noted for future dependency replacement.
  • cargo audit returns clean (0 vulnerabilities).

Test plan

  • cargo check -p ruvector-server — clean compile
  • cargo check -p ruvector-dag ruvector-core — clean compile
  • cargo check -p rvagent-cli — clean compile
  • cargo check -p ruvllm — clean compile
  • cargo check -p prime-radiant — clean compile
  • cargo test -p ruvector-core -p ruvector-server -p ruvector-dag -p rvagent-cli -p prime-radiant653+ tests, 0 failures
  • cargo clippy --workspace — no new warnings introduced; deprecated lint names resolved

- Replace all bare `partial_cmp().unwrap()` calls on f32/f64 with
  `.unwrap_or(Ordering::Equal)` to prevent panics on NaN values in
  sorting/max-by operations across ruvllm, ruvector-dag, prime-radiant,
  and rvagent-wasm (12 sites in production code).
- Add input validation guards to the HTTP search endpoint: reject k=0,
  k > 10_000, empty vectors, and vectors exceeding 65_536 dimensions,
  preventing memory exhaustion via unbounded allocations.
- Harden LocalFsBackend::execute in rvagent-cli with env_clear() +
  safe-env allowlist (SEC-005), deadline-based timeout enforcement, and
  1 MB output truncation, matching the security posture of LocalShellBackend.
- Remove 129 occurrences of the deprecated `unused_unit = "allow"` lint
  and 3 occurrences of the removed `clippy::match_on_vec_items` lint from
  Cargo.toml files workspace-wide; both are no-ops in current Rust/Clippy.
- All 653+ tests across ruvector-core, ruvector-server, ruvector-dag,
  rvagent-cli, and prime-radiant pass with zero failures.

Note: `bytes` is already at 1.11.1 (>= 1.10.0); `paste` 1.0.15 is a
transitive dependency with no semver fix available upstream; `cargo audit`
returns clean.

   rvagent-cli/app.rs, rvagent-wasm/gallery.rs)
- Add [workspace.lints.clippy] unused_unit = "allow" to root Cargo.toml;
  the per-crate entries removed in the security commit were still needed —
  moving to workspace-level is cleaner and restores -D warnings CI pass

under -D warnings. Clippy prefers `Fn(&mut Kernel)` without explicit
