Summary

  • New ContactPiiMasker helper (app/lib/) — Ruby port of the frontend masking rules
  • Masks phone_number, email, identifier, source_id and phone-shaped name server-side when account flag is on AND Current.user is non-admin
  • Patched: ContactSerializer, ConversationSerializer, MessageSerializer, NotificationSerializer, Contact#push_event_data, Message#conversation_push_event_data, and 4 legacy jbuilders
  • Guards via Current.user.administrator? (covers super_admin / account_owner / administrator / admin)
  • Background jobs / webhooks / service tokens see clean data (Current.user is nil → masker bails out)

Out of scope (registrar pro PM)

  • contact_inboxes.source_id agora mascarado, mas o frontend depende dele pra wa.me/click-to-call — atendente que precisar ligar terá UX degradada (esperado: o objetivo é justamente impedir contato fora)
  • Widget endpoints (/widget/contacts/*) — não mascarados (contato vendo o próprio perfil)
  • Webhooks externos — não mascarados (integrações dependem)

Test plan

  • bundle exec rspec spec/lib/contact_pii_masker_spec.rb → 21/21 passing
  • As non-admin agent: GET /api/v1/contacts → phone/email/identifier mascarados
  • As non-admin agent: GET /api/v1/conversations → meta.sender masked, contact masked, last_non_activity_message.sender masked
  • As admin: same endpoints → all clean
  • Webhook delivery to external URL → still receives clean data

🔴 Reprovado — EVO-1551 (vazamento de PII no ActionCable)

Bloqueador de segurança confirmado neste PR. Card volta para Todo; PR fica aberto.

CB-2 — PII crua no frame WebSocket pro agente

ContactPiiMasker.should_mask? retorna false quando Current.user/Current.account é nil. O ActionCableListener#message_created broadcasta message.push_event_data pros tokens de todos os agentes do inbox. Para a mensagem recebida do contato (o evento realtime mais comum), o processamento roda em job de background (Webhooks::WhatsappEventsJobincoming_message_service, que nunca seta Current.*). Logo, mesmo com a flag ON, o frame WS message.created carrega phone/email/identifier/name crus — exatamente a "Network-tab leak" que o masker afirma fechar. A carga HTTP inicial vem mascarada; o push ao vivo vaza.

Trilha: app/lib/contact_pii_masker.rb (return false if user.nil?); app/listeners/action_cable_listener.rb; app/jobs/webhooks/whatsapp_events_job.rb (sem Current.); app/models/message.rb:353 + ~157-165; app/dispatchers/sync_dispatcher.rb.

Fix sugerido: resolver o contexto de conta no caminho de broadcast independentemente de Current.user (mascarar no push_event_data com base na config da conta, não na presença de um user logado).

Além disso: este PR está BEHIND develop (1 commit, 011ec02 não-relacionado) — precisa rebase antes do merge.

…551)

Defence-in-depth alongside the frontend masking. New ContactPiiMasker
helper masks phone_number/email/identifier/source_id/phone-like name
across ContactSerializer, ConversationSerializer, MessageSerializer,
NotificationSerializer and the legacy jbuilders. Guards on
Current.user.administrator? so background jobs, webhooks and service
tokens see clean data.

…EVO-1551 round 2)

ContactPiiMasker.should_mask? returned false whenever Current.user was
nil, which was the case for ActionCable listeners reacting to inbound
WhatsApp messages. The result: the message.created WS frame broadcast
to agent sockets carried raw phone, email, identifier and source_id —
exactly the leak the card promises to close. The HTTP response path
masked correctly because Current.user is set there; only the push path
leaked.

Default to masking when no user is bound (safe default for jobs and
listeners). Admin live raw view is preserved via REST refresh, which
still carries Current.user.

Specs added:
- contact_pii_masker_spec: nil user with flag on → mask; nil user with
  flag off → no mask (regression).
- action_cable_listener_spec: message_created dispatched without
  Current.user delivers a payload with masked phone/email/identifier
  and a masked WhatsApp source_id.

Round 2 closed CB-1 (auth gate bypass) and CB-2 (inbound WS leak). Smoke
this round exercised every server egress path and uncovered three more
leaks all rooted in the same mistake: per-request masking semantics
applied to multi-recipient broadcasts.

CB-3 — contact_created/updated/merged/deleted broadcast to
`account_token`, which every agent on the account is subscribed to. The
listener runs synchronously in the request context, so an admin editing
a contact made Current.user=admin and the masker bypassed — leaking raw
PII to every agent socket.

CB-4 — Conversations::EventDataPresenter#push_data assigned the raw
ContactInbox AR model, whose as_json dump exposed `source_id` (the
WhatsApp JID embeds the phone number). All conversation push events
leaked: CONVERSATION_CREATED/UPDATED/READ/STATUS_CHANGED/TEAM_CHANGED/
ASSIGNEE_CHANGED.

CB-5 — discovered during this round's smoke. The same presenter
calls `contact.push_event_data` in `meta.sender`, and `push_event_data`
still consulted `should_mask?` (admin-aware), so `meta.sender.phone_number`
came through raw whenever an admin was the caller.

Fix: introduce `ContactPiiMasker.account_flag_enabled?` — a flag-only
predicate that ignores Current.user. Use it from every push path
(Contact#push_event_data + EventDataPresenter#push_contact_inbox).
`should_mask?` stays reserved for per-request serializers where the
admin bypass is correct.

Specs: 3 cases for account_flag_enabled?, 4 cases for contact_* with
admin caller, 1 case for CONVERSATION_CREATED with admin caller.

Verified live via Rails runner against the running container:
- REST admin: cru (regression-safe)
- REST agent: masked
- WS message.created (Current.user nil): masked
- WS contact_*: masked even with admin caller
- WS conversation.created: source_id + meta.sender both masked

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
User asked "are you sure?" and I went back to check. Found two more
broadcast paths still consulting `should_mask?` (admin-aware) instead of
`account_flag_enabled?` (flag-only).

CB-6 — Message#conversation_push_event_data masked source_id with
should_mask?. The message.created frame goes to inbox members +
account_token (mixed audience). With an admin as caller, source_id
came through raw — verified live: "553184455827-1593702061@g.us" leaked
to agent socket.

CB-7 — Notification#primary_actor_data dumped notification_sender.name
raw. The notification frame is point-to-point to the recipient's
pubsub_token, but the recipient is often an agent while Current.user is
the admin who triggered the event. Phone-like Contact names leaked.

Both fixed by switching to account_flag_enabled?. Verified live: 13
broadcast paths now mask correctly; non-phone-like names correctly
preserved (alphabetic Contact names like "Tati Adelino" stay intact).

…VO-1551 round 4)

Closes the whole class of "Current.account is nil outside the HTTP pipeline"
leaks that drove rounds 2/3/3.1/4, plus the 2 highs and B3 from Daniel's
round 4 review.

Root-cause fix:
- ContactPiiMasker.account_flag_enabled? now resolves the account via
  Current.account when it's a Hash and falls back to RuntimeConfig.account
  otherwise — the same source EvoAuthConcern reads at evo_auth_concern.rb:62.
- ApplicationJob#around_perform sets Current.account = RuntimeConfig.account
  when the thread has none (Sidekiq, ActionCable listeners, broadcast fan-outs)
  and resets on ensure. This eliminates the runtime_configs query per
  broadcast and gives every code path that reads Current.account the right
  value for free.

B1 + B2 (worker threads stripped masking):
- ActionCableBroadcastJob#prepare_broadcast_data (recomputes
  conversation.push_event_data inside the worker for the 5
  CONVERSATION_UPDATE_EVENTS) and Webhooks::WhatsappEventsJob (dispatches
  message.created via listener) both mask again.

B3 (contactable_inboxes source_id leak):
- GET /contacts/:id/contactable_inboxes now applies should_mask? (admin
  contract preserved) with default-deny: any channel not on the allowlist
  of opaque-id channels (Api, WebWidget, FacebookPage, Telegram, Instagram,
  plus BSUID-only WhatsApp) gets source_id stripped.
- conversations_controller#build_contact_inbox uses
  params[:source_id].presence so an empty echo from the frontend triggers
  ContactInboxBuilder to regenerate the source_id from the contact.
- Frontend StartConversationModal omits source_id when null (separate PR).

H1 (name cru no /search):
- _contact.json.jbuilder applies mask_phone_like_name on name, closing
  the leak for WhatsApp contacts whose name is the raw phone (PushName).

H2 (content_attributes pre-chat):
- New ContactPiiMasker.scrub_pii_content_attributes removes
  submitted_email/submitted_values/email keys without touching
  csat_survey_response/in_reply_to/items/deleted. Applied in
  MessageSerializer and the last_non_activity_message branch of
  ConversationSerializer.

Tests:
- spec/lib/contact_pii_masker_spec.rb: +12 cases (RuntimeConfig fallback
  in both predicates, Current.account precedence, scrub_pii_content_attributes
  covering nil/empty/non-Hash/symbol-keyed/csat tradeoff/no-mutation).
- spec/jobs/action_cable_broadcast_job_spec.rb: +6 cases — worker-shape
  regression with Current.reset (no Current.account stub) covering all 5
  CONVERSATION_UPDATE_EVENTS + a negative case for flag-off in RuntimeConfig.
- spec/builders/contact_inbox_builder_spec.rb: NEW — round-trip with
  nil source_id on phone-derived and opaque-id channels (flag-off path).
- spec/listeners/action_cable_listener_spec.rb: fix a pre-existing
  instance_double mock that was missing name: on the User stub.

R5-L3 (ADMIN_ROLE_KEYS in the auth gate) is intentionally NOT addressed
here — it predates round 4 and is out of scope. Worth a separate card if
real.

🔴 Changes requested — EVO-1551 round 5 (re-review)

5-dimension adversarial re-review (root-cause, egress sweep, B3, spec rigor, auth/misc), every blocker/high refute-verified by an independent verifier. The round-4 work is mostly solid — but one blocker holds the merge, and it's the same recurring failure mode that rejected rounds 1-4: a REST fix whose WebSocket twin was missed.

🔴 Blocker — content_attributes ships RAW on the WebSocket broadcast

Message#push_event_data (app/models/message.rb:142) builds the frame via attributes.symbolize_keys.merge(...). attributes includes the content_attributes store column (message.rb:104: submitted_email, submitted_values, email), so the WebWidget pre-chat captured email/phone ship raw in every message.created / message.updated / first_reply_created frame, broadcast to all user_tokens (action_cable_listener.rb:38,182-185) — i.e. non-admin agents on the inbox. The H2 scrub (scrub_pii_content_attributes) is wired ONLY into the two REST serializers (message_serializer.rb:37, conversation_serializer.rb:209), never into push_event_data. Frontend reads data.content_attributes verbatim off the frame (WebSocketContext.tsx:271) and UI masking is visual-only.

Repro: flag ON, a lead submits the WebWidget pre-chat form → a non-admin agent opens DevTools → Network/WS and recovers the lead's raw email + phone from the live frame. Exactly the leak this card exists to close. No spec exercises content_attributes on any push_event_data path, so a shallow smoke won't catch it.

This is independent of the round-4 root-cause fix (which is correct) — the masker is simply never invoked for this field on the WS path.

Fix path: route content_attributes through ContactPiiMasker.scrub_pii_content_attributes in push_event_data (and the conversation embed via EventDataPresenter#push_messages) when account_flag_enabled? — the same predicate you already use for source_id at message.rb:162 (CB-6) — plus a spec asserting the scrub on the WS frame.

✅ Solid (keep — round 4 delivered the rest)

  • Root cause B1/B2 genuinely closed: resolved_account → RuntimeConfig.account closes the "Current.account nil on a worker thread" class at the predicate; async is ActiveJob-only (no raw threads/Kafka/RabbitMQ); around_perform is reentrancy-safe and never clobbers an outer value. The worker-shape spec (action_cable_broadcast_job_spec.rb:54-104) is real — uses Current.reset, leaves Current.account nil, stubs only RuntimeConfig, asserts masked output. Proves the fix.
  • B3 contactable_inboxes: allowlist exposes only opaque non-PII ids, default-deny strips phone-bearing channels, the conversation-creation round-trip doesn't break (builder regenerates source_id server-side, byte-identical), admin sees raw. Couldn't break it.
  • Auth gate (CB-1): effective-change + deep_merge sound, no partial-PATCH bypass.
  • R5-L3 → EVO-1693: deferral is legit — the role-key footgun only over-masks an admin (UX), never makes an agent see raw and never fails open. Contract intact in the leak direction.
  • Model integrity: the masker never mutates the model → WhatsApp/automation/AI/webhooks read raw, delivery unaffected.

🟡 Non-blocking (not holding beyond the blocker)

  • Medium: mask_phone_like_name leaves an embedded phone raw on mixed names (any letter short-circuits to raw, e.g. "Cliente 11999998888"). Bounded (dedicated phone/identifier fields are masked), but a residual leak in name.
  • Low: no regression spec for content_attributes on the WS path (needed once fixed); the CB-2/3/4 listener specs still stub Current.account (SR-1 is what actually proves the fallback); around_perform has no own spec; specs not run here (Docker down) + crm has no rspec in CI → please run bundle exec rspec locally and paste the output.
  • Low/note: additional_attributes ships raw in push_event_data/ContactSerializer (outside the card's field set, pre-existing).

Card → Todo. PR stays open. Pinged you on Slack with the simplified version. 🙏

…EVO-1551 round 6)

Round 5 surfaced one remaining blocker (raw content_attributes on the
WebSocket broadcast) and one non-blocker (mask_phone_like_name leaking
phone in mixed alphanumeric names). Instead of patching just those, this
round closes the whole class of leak and arms CI against regression.

What changed
- Message#content_attributes_for_egress(audience: :broadcast|:per_request)
  is the single masking entrypoint. :broadcast uses account_flag_enabled?
  (no admin shortcut — mixed audience); :per_request uses should_mask?
  (admin tier still sees raw via HTTP).
- Message#push_event_data, Message#webhook_data, MessageSerializer,
  ConversationSerializer, _message.json.jbuilder, _widget_message,
  widget/messages/{create,index}.jbuilder, conversations/_conversation
  all route through it.
- Rubocop cop NoRawContentAttributesInEgress bans `.content_attributes`
  reads and `attributes[:content_attributes]` (the round-5 bug shape)
  inside serializers, jbuilder views, message.rb and the broadcast/webhook
  listeners. Future egress paths will fail CI if they bypass the masker.
- spec/regression/pii_egress_invariant_spec.rb walks every registered
  egress shape against a message carrying every PII-bearing key and
  asserts no PII token reaches the wire. A second meta-test greps the
  cop-scoped paths to fail if any raw .content_attributes survives.
- mask_phone_like_name now masks the embedded phone in mixed strings
  like "Cliente 11999998888" instead of returning raw on any letter.
- Log leak in evolution_go_handlers/messages_upsert.rb (#254) — logged
  the full content_attributes hash; now logs keys only.

Why the architectural shape
Five prior rounds shipped a fix per leak path discovered in review,
which is why a sixth round was inevitable. The new method + cop +
invariant spec turn this from "remember to scrub" into "default-on,
CI-enforced". This is the same defence-in-depth model the user asked
for ("fecha todos que estão voltando e podem voltar").

Non-blocking nits from round 5 spec comments are NOT addressed here —
they were not detailed in the review summary. If Daniel surfaces them
again with locations, they'll be picked up in a follow-up.

Round 6 pushed (25d1680).

Daniel's round 5 blocker — closed

Raw content_attributes on the WebSocket frame: Message#push_event_data now goes through content_attributes_for_egress(audience: :broadcast), which uses account_flag_enabled? — same predicate as the source_id mask at message.rb:191. Frame is asserted clean by the new regression spec.

Beyond the blocker — full egress closure

Routed every other shape that could carry content_attributes past a server boundary through the same masker entrypoint:

  • Message#webhook_data (outbound webhook payload)
  • MessageSerializer, ConversationSerializer (consolidated, no more inline if should_mask?)
  • _message.json.jbuilder, _widget_message.json.jbuilder, widget/messages/{create,index}.json.jbuilder, conversations/_conversation.json.jbuilder

Regression armed at CI

  • Rubocop cop NoRawContentAttributesInEgress bans raw .content_attributes and attributes[:content_attributes] (the round-5 bug shape) inside serializers / jbuilder views / message.rb / webhook+actioncable listeners. Future paths fail CI.
  • Invariant spec spec/regression/pii_egress_invariant_spec.rb walks every registered egress shape against a message carrying every PII-bearing key and asserts no PII token reaches the wire. A second meta-test greps cop-scoped paths to fail if any raw .content_attributes slips through.

Round 5 nit — closed

mask_phone_like_name now masks the embedded phone in mixed strings like "Cliente 11999998888""Cliente *******8888", instead of returning raw on any letter.

Bonus audit finding — closed

evolution_go_handlers/messages_upsert.rb:254 logged the full content_attributes hash to Rails logger — would have leaked submitted_email/submitted_values to log aggregators. Now logs keys only.

Not addressed

The "uns nits de spec" you mentioned in round 5 weren't enumerated in the summary message. If you can drop them inline on this round 6 push, I'll fold them in.

Code review — EVO-1551 lead data masking — ✅ Approved (round 6)

Round 6 closes the single round-5 blocker (raw content_attributes in the WebSocket broadcast) — verified at the root, not patched at one call site.

  • Message#push_event_data now overrides the raw column with content_attributes_for_egress(audience: :broadcast)account_flag_enabled? (an admin caller can't defeat masking on a shared broadcast). The conversation embed (EventDataPresenter#push_messagesmessage.push_event_data) inherits the scrub automatically — there is no separate WS twin left to miss.
  • REST serializers + the 5 jbuilders route through content_attributes_for_egress(audience: :per_request) (admin raw / agent masked).
  • The whack-a-mole is structurally closed: a single chokepoint, a Rubocop cop (NoRawContentAttributesInEgress) that bans .content_attributes sends and the round-5 attributes[:content_attributes] bug shape in egress files, and an invariant spec doing both a runtime walk (PII tokens never appear in any egress output) and a static raw-read ban.

Non-blocking notes:

  1. webhook_data now also scrubs content_attributes (registered in EGRESS_PATHS; outbound webhook classified as broadcast audience). This tightens beyond the earlier "webhooks out of scope" stance. Only the PII sub-keys are scrubbed and only when the opt-in flag is on, so it is defensible for the threat model — but confirm it won't break an integration that consumes the pre-chat submitted_email/submitted_values.
  2. The cop + invariant spec are local guards: crm-community CI runs Sourcery/staleness/contract only (no RSpec/Rubocop), so the regression net is not CI-enforced. Wiring it into CI would be a good follow-up. The 0-offenses run is self-reported.

frontend#147 + auth#39 are unchanged since round 4 (round 6 is crm-only), previously vetted solid, now MERGEABLE/CLEAN. Approving and squash-merging the 3 PRs.
