fix: the fastfile contains a hardcoded app store con... in Fastfile

[anupamme]

Summary

Fix high severity security issue in fastlane/Fastfile.

Vulnerability

Field	Value
ID	V-001
Severity	HIGH
Scanner	multi_agent_ai
Rule	V-001
File	fastlane/Fastfile:45
Assessment	Likely exploitable
Chain Complexity	2-step

Description: The Fastfile contains a hardcoded App Store Connect API key ID (84F695CDQ3) as a fallback value when the ASC_KEY_ID environment variable is not set. While the actual private key is stored externally, the key ID is exposed in the source code and corresponds to a specific key file name (AuthKey_84F695CDQ3.p8).

Evidence

Exploitation scenario: An attacker with access to the repository (via public leak, insider threat, or compromised developer machine) extracts the hardcoded key ID '84F695CDQ3' from fastlane/Fastfile:47.

Scanner confirmation: multi_agent_ai rule V-001 flagged this pattern.

Production code: This file is in the production codebase, not test-only code.

Threat Model Context

This is a web application - XSS and injection vulnerabilities can affect end users.

Changes

• fastlane/Fastfile

Behavior Preservation

The change is scoped to 1 file on the vulnerable path, and the project builds successfully with this change applied.

Verification

• Build passes
• Scanner re-scan confirms fix
• LLM code review passed

Security Invariant

Property: The security boundary is maintained under adversarial input

Regression test

const { execSync } = require('child_process');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

describe("Fastfile must not expose hardcoded App Store Connect API key ID in environment variable processing", () => {
  const payloads = [
    // Exact exploit case: empty environment variable triggers hardcoded fallback
    { ASC_KEY_ID: '', ASC_ISSUER_ID: 'test-issuer' },
    // Boundary case: whitespace-only value should not be treated as valid
    { ASC_KEY_ID: '   ', ASC_ISSUER_ID: 'test-issuer' },
    // Valid input: proper key ID should be used
    { ASC_KEY_ID: 'CUSTOM_KEY_ID_123', ASC_ISSUER_ID: 'test-issuer' },
    // Adversarial case: null/undefined simulation via unset variable
    { ASC_ISSUER_ID: 'test-issuer' }
  ];

  test.each(payloads)("environment variable $ASC_KEY_ID does not leak hardcoded key ID", async (envVars) => {
    const fastfilePath = path.join(__dirname, '../fastlane/Fastfile');
    const testScript = `
      require 'fastlane'
      require 'json'
      
      # Load the Fastfile
      fastfile = Fastlane::FastFile.new('${fastfilePath}')
      
      # Capture the lane context
      result = {}
      begin
        fastfile.runner.execute(:ios, :beta)
      rescue => e
        result[:error] = e.message
      end
      
      # Check if hardcoded key appears in any output
      output = result.to_json
      puts output
    `;

    const env = { ...process.env, ...envVars };
    // Remove ASC_KEY_ID entirely if it's not in the payload (simulating unset)
    if (!('ASC_KEY_ID' in envVars)) {
      delete env.ASC_KEY_ID;
    }

    try {
      const output = execSync(`ruby -e "${testScript.replace(/\n/g, ';')}"`, {
        env,
        cwd: path.dirname(fastfilePath),
        encoding: 'utf8',
        stdio: ['pipe', 'pipe', 'ignore']
      });

      const parsed = JSON.parse(output);
      const errorMessage = parsed.error || '';
      const outputString = JSON.stringify(parsed);

      // Security property: No hardcoded key ID "84F695CDQ3" should appear in any output/error
      expect(outputString).not.toContain('84F695CDQ3');
      expect(errorMessage).not.toContain('84F695CDQ3');
      
      // Additional check: If ASC_KEY_ID is provided and non-empty/whitespace, it should be used
      if (envVars.ASC_KEY_ID && envVars.ASC_KEY_ID.trim()) {
        expect(outputString).toContain(envVars.ASC_KEY_ID);
      }
    } catch (error) {
      // Even if execution fails, hardcoded key must not appear in error messages
      expect(error.message).not.toContain('84F695CDQ3');
    }
  });
});

This test guards against regressions — it's useful independent of the code change above.
