🚨 Severity: CRITICAL
💡 Vulnerability: Weak regex ^[0-9]+$ on interactive readline prompts allowed unconstrained large input strings. When coerced via as.integer(), values exceeding the 32-bit integer limit become NA, breaking conditional loops and leading to unhandled exceptions or potential DoS in edge environments.
🎯 Impact: Prevents script crashes and infinite loops caused by unexpected integer limits during manual or semi-automated verification steps.
🔧 Fix: Changed regex to ^[12]$ to strictly bound expected choices, completely averting the coercion risk. Added verification tests using mockery.
Verification: Verified via covr::package_coverage() and devtools::test() locally. Tests explicitly assert correct error termination on out-of-bound strings.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • 버그 수정

    • 대화형 입력에서 허용되는 선택지를 1 또는 2로 제한했습니다.
    • 과도하게 큰 숫자 입력으로 인한 처리 오류와 예외 발생 가능성을 줄였습니다.
  • 테스트

    • 비정상적으로 큰 숫자 입력 및 후속 입력에 대한 검증 테스트를 추가했습니다.

…ive prompts

- Replaced weak regex `^[0-9]+$` with strict bound `^[12]$` in interactive `readline` validations within `autoFIPC()`.
- Prevents unconstrained large integers from coercing to `NA` via `as.integer()`, which bypassed conditions and caused downstream errors.
- Added explicit unit tests to `test-sentinel-validation-fix.R` to verify strict prompt rejection.
- Updated `.jules/sentinel.md` journal with new security learnings.

👋 Jules, reporting for duty! I'm here to lend a hand with this pull request.

When you start a review, I'll add a 👀 emoji to each comment to let you know I've read it. I'll focus on feedback directed at me and will do my best to stay out of conversations between you and other bots or reviewers to keep the noise down.

I'll push a commit with your requested changes shortly after. Please note there might be a delay between these steps, but rest assured I'm on the job!

For more direct control, you can switch me to Reactive Mode. When this mode is on, I will only act on comments where you specifically mention me with @jules. You can find this option in the Pull Request section of your global Jules UI settings. You can always switch back!

For security, I will only act on instructions from the user who triggered this task.

Warning

Review limit reached

@seonghobae, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 48 minutes

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

세 입력 경로를 모두 회귀 테스트하세요.

현재 테스트는 공통 문항 확인 프롬프트만 실행합니다. R/aFIPC.R Line [174]와 Line [393]의 BILOG-MG 검증은 실행되지 않습니다. 따라서 해당 정규식이 다시 ^[0-9]+$로 변경되어도 이 테스트가 회귀를 검출하지 못합니다. 구형 및 신형 BILOG-MG 프롬프트에 대한 oversized 입력 테스트를 추가하고, 유효한 "1""2" 입력도 검증하세요.
