Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Reject symlink paths before merging: an attacker-writable logging directory can redirect message writes to unrelated files. Sent-message destination IDs are now normalized, and private sends are excluded from logging. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Logging is opt-in and normally uses restrictive local permissions, but its path checks can redirect writes outside the intended history file. Exploitation depends on control of the storage path and the process’s filesystem privileges; radio messages alone cannot select that path. Retained concerns

Review comments at @meshtastic/__main__.py:
- Around line 607-612: Before calling message_store.log_sent in the sent-message
flow, normalize args.dest to the canonical node ID form used by _node_id,
preserving ^all, and pass the actual port used for the send so private messages
are recorded with their correct application.
- Around line 1659-1665: Update the message-argument flow in common() around
handleMessageStoreArgs and handleShowMessagesArgs: check for the --messages and
--show-messages combination before saving any setting, then return after on,
off, or status when no other command was given, using the same parser-default
comparison as handleShowMessagesArgs. Keep live running through the normal
command flow.
Review comments at @meshtastic/message_store.py:
- Around line 285-298: Update the my_id property logic so negative node numbers
from localNode.nodeNum are rejected before caching and the myInfo.my_node_num
fallback is tried; cache the formatted ID only when the selected value is a
non-negative integer.

Review comments at @meshtastic/message_store.py:
- Line 269: Update the message-log opening flow around os.open and
_tighten_permissions to reject symlink path components, use O_NOFOLLOW for the
final target where supported, and skip logging if validation or opening fails
before permissions are changed or records are written.
- Around line 76-77: Update the permission-tightening handler used by
MessageLog.append to let an os.fchmod OSError propagate to its existing error
handler instead of suppressing it, so the message is not appended when
permissions cannot be tightened.

Reachability: External

CWE: CWE-59
Stop logging when a symlink is found in the path.
Path.resolve(strict=False) follows symlinks before the check, so the loop cannot detect a symlinked messages.jsonl or parent directory. The warning does not stop execution, so os.open can still append through the resolved path. Use a non-resolving absolute path and raise OSError; append catches it and skips the write.
Proposed fix
- path = Path(self.path).resolve(strict=False)
- for parent in [path] + list(path.parents):
- if parent.exists() and parent.is_symlink():
- _warn(f"refusing to log: symlink in path ({parent})")
+ path = Path(os.path.abspath(self.path))
+ for parent in (path, *path.parents):
+ if parent.is_symlink():
+ raise OSError(f"refusing to log: symlink in path ({parent})")🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

[optional] Persistent text-message log (
--messages,--show-messages)Refs [#593} (No way to get messages out via CLI)
Why
The library delivers received packets once over pubsub and keeps no history, so the CLI can't show messages after it exits. The README roadmap also lists a standardized way of recording packets for later use. This adds an opt-in, client-side text-message log and a way to read it back.
What this adds
--messages on|off|status|liveon/off: enable or disable logging and save the setting (default: off).status(also bare--messages): print whether logging is on, without changing it.live: log for this run only, without changing the saved setting. Combine it with--listen,--sendtext, etc.--show-messages [all]What gets logged (only while logging is enabled)
TEXT_MESSAGE_APPonly), captured frommeshtastic.receive.--sendtext, logged right after sending.How to use
