From f76bb4ffe01d89058a6cbb51e292eeebb057606f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leo Zhadanovsky Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 21:04:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/6] fix(deploy-on-aws): defusedxml.ElementTree compatibility in fixers MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Closes #154 Closes #167 The 4 post-processing fixer scripts in `plugins/deploy-on-aws/scripts/lib/` all do `import defusedxml.ElementTree as ET` and then reach for `ET.Element`, `ET.ElementTree`, and `ET.indent`. None of these names are exported by `defusedxml.ElementTree`: - `Element` and `ElementTree` are stdlib type aliases. defusedxml's module is a thin security wrapper that re-exports the parsing helpers (`parse`, `fromstring`) but not the types. With Python 3.10+ evaluating annotations eagerly, `def f(cell: ET.Element)` crashes at module-import time: AttributeError: module 'defusedxml.ElementTree' has no attribute 'Element' - `indent()` is a write-side pretty-printer added to the stdlib in Python 3.9. Older defusedxml releases — still common via system Python and distro packages — never re-exported it. Newer scripts call `ET.indent(tree, ...)` and crash with the same AttributeError. Both bugs are filed: - #154 (Element / ElementTree) lists all 4 affected files. - #167 (indent) reproduces the issue on `fix_step_badges.py:486`. Fix ---- Pull the three names directly from the stdlib at import time and attach them to the `ET` module object. defusedxml's secure `parse()` remains the actual XML entry point — none of the symbols added here do any parsing: - `Element` / `ElementTree` are pure type aliases used in annotations and `dict[str, ET.Element]`-shaped indexes. - `indent()` only mutates the in-memory tree's `text`/`tail` whitespace before serialization; no network or external input is involved. Bandit B405 ("Using Element to parse untrusted XML data is known to be vulnerable to XML attacks") flags the `from xml.etree.ElementTree import` line. The flagged usage is type-only (no parsing), so each import is annotated with a `# nosec B405` comment explaining that defusedxml remains the parser. Verified with `bandit` on all 4 files: 0 issues post-fix. Verification ------------ - All 4 modules import cleanly: `python3 -c "import importlib.util; spec=importlib.util.spec_from_file_location('m', ''); m = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec); spec.loader.exec_module(m)"` - All 4 fixers run end-to-end on a real diagram: `python3 fix_nesting.py test.drawio` (and same for the other 3). - `post_process_drawio.py test.drawio` chains all fixers, completes successfully, output XML re-parses with stdlib ElementTree. - `bandit` reports 0 issues across all 4 files (4 nosec annotations applied; no other findings introduced). - Tested against `defusedxml==0.7.1` on Python 3.12.

Same false-positive class as the bandit B405 finding handled in the previous commit — the imported symbols are pure type aliases (Element, ElementTree) and a write-side pretty-printer (indent) that do no parsing.

Collapse the import to one line and put the suppression directly on that line, alongside the existing `# nosec B405` for Bandit. This is the form Semgrep documents as inline-suppression and is matched against the AST node, not the surrounding text. Functionally identical: defusedxml.parse() / fromstring() still handle all real XML input, and we still only borrow Element / ElementTree / indent from the stdlib for type annotations and pretty-printing. --- .../scripts/lib/fix_icon_colors.py | 23 ++++++++----------- .../deploy-on-aws/scripts/lib/fix_nesting.py | 23 ++++++++----------- .../scripts/lib/fix_step_badges.py | 23 ++++++++----------- .../scripts/lib/post_process_drawio.py | 23 ++++++++----------- 4 files changed, 40 insertions(+), 52 deletions(-) diff --git a/plugins/deploy-on-aws/scripts/lib/fix_icon_colors.py b/plugins/deploy-on-aws/scripts/lib/fix_icon_colors.py index 53e16b62..cf609564 100644 --- a/plugins/deploy-on-aws/scripts/lib/fix_icon_colors.py +++ b/plugins/deploy-on-aws/scripts/lib/fix_icon_colors.py @@ -10,19 +10,16 @@ import argparse import defusedxml.ElementTree as ET -# defusedxml.ElementTree re-exports the secure parsing helpers -# (parse, fromstring) but does NOT re-export the type aliases Element / -# ElementTree, nor the indent() pretty-printer added in Python 3.9.

Three different inline forms have been attempted (rule-id, bare, single-line inline) and all were ignored by the GHAS scanner — though the actions-based `semgrep` workflow does honor them, since it baseline-compares against main. The four files in question parse XML through `defusedxml.ElementTree` (safe) and only borrow `Element` / `ElementTree` / `indent` from the stdlib for type annotations and pretty-printing — none of which expose an XXE surface. Suppress at the file level so the GHAS check passes without disabling the rule repo-wide for legitimate findings elsewhere. --- .semgrepignore | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) diff --git a/.semgrepignore b/.semgrepignore index c83cb8df..a9ec84d2 100644 --- a/.semgrepignore +++ b/.semgrepignore @@ -19,3 +19,13 @@ uv.lock .gitleaks-baseline.json .bandit-baseline.json .semgrepignore + +# draw.io fixer scripts — defusedxml does the actual parsing, but each +# script also borrows Element / ElementTree / indent from xml.etree for +# type hints and pretty-printing.
