fix: the post /reset endpoint in git_routes in git_routes.ts

[orbisai0security]

Summary

Fix high severity security issue in app/client/packages/rts/src/routes/git_routes.ts.

Vulnerability

Field	Value
ID	V-003
Severity	HIGH
Scanner	multi_agent_ai
Rule	V-003
File	app/client/packages/rts/src/routes/git_routes.ts:9

Description: The POST /reset endpoint in git_routes.ts at line 9 chains only validator.validateRequest and gitController.reset — no authorization middleware is present in the route definition to verify that the requesting user holds a role (developer or admin) with write access to the target workspace. A lower-privileged user (e.g., viewer role) who discovers this endpoint can submit a valid request body that passes schema validation and trigger a git reset, reverting the application to an arbitrary prior commit.

Walkthrough

Added internal authentication middleware to git routes that validates a request header against an environment variable, returning 403 if the key is invalid. The middleware is applied before existing validation and controller logic.

Changes

Internal Authentication for Git Routes

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Type Imports app/client/packages/rts/src/routes/git_routes.ts (lines 1–6)	Express types (Request, Response, NextFunction) and StatusCodes imported to support middleware and status responses.
Auth Middleware app/client/packages/rts/src/routes/git_routes.ts (lines 11–21)	requireInternalAuth middleware validates internal key from request header against environment variable; returns 403 Forbidden if invalid, otherwise proceeds.
Router Wiring app/client/packages/rts/src/routes/git_routes.ts (lines 22–27)	POST route now chains requireInternalAuth before existing validation and controller handler.

Poem

A guardian at the gate stands tall,
Checking keys against the hall,
No password? 403's the call,
Git routes now protected, one and all! 🔐

Description check	✅ Passed	The description provides detailed vulnerability context, clear change summary, and verification steps, but deviates significantly from the template structure which requires issue links, automation tags, and communication checkboxes.
