Three fixes for memory+profile isolation bugs:
1. memory_tool.py: Replace module-level MEMORY_DIR constant with
get_memory_dir() function that calls get_hermes_home() dynamically.
The old constant was cached at import time and could go stale if
HERMES_HOME changed after import. Internal MemoryStore methods now
call get_memory_dir() directly. MEMORY_DIR kept as backward-compat
alias.
2. profiles.py: profile create --clone now copies MEMORY.md and USER.md
from the source profile. These curated memory files are part of the
agent's identity (same as SOUL.md) and should carry over on clone.
3. holographic plugin: initialize() now expands $HERMES_HOME and
${HERMES_HOME} in the db_path config value, so users can write
'db_path: $HERMES_HOME/memory_store.db' and it resolves to the
active profile directory, not the default home.
Tests updated to mock get_memory_dir() alongside the legacy MEMORY_DIR.
The original PR excluded auth.json from _DEFAULT_EXPORT_EXCLUDE_ROOT and
filtered both auth.json and .env from named profile exports, but missed
adding .env to the default profile exclusion set. Default exports would
still leak .env containing API keys.
Added .env to _DEFAULT_EXPORT_EXCLUDE_ROOT, added test coverage, and
updated the existing test that incorrectly asserted .env presence.
- Add _DEFAULT_EXPORT_EXCLUDE_ROOT constant with 25+ entries to exclude
from default profile exports: repo checkout (hermes-agent), worktrees,
databases (state.db), caches, runtime state, logs, binaries
- Add _default_export_ignore() with root-level and universal exclusions
(__pycache__, *.sock, *.tmp at any depth)
- Remove redundant shutil/tempfile imports from contributor's if-block
- Block import_profile() from accepting 'default' as target name with
clear guidance to use --name
- Add 7 tests covering: archive creation, inclusion of profile data,
exclusion of infrastructure, nested __pycache__ exclusion, import
rejection without --name, import rejection with --name default,
full export-import roundtrip with a different name
Addresses review feedback on PR #4370.
Fixes a zip-slip path traversal vulnerability in hermes profile import.
shutil.unpack_archive() on untrusted tar members allows entries like
../../escape.txt to write files outside ~/.hermes/profiles/.
- Add _normalize_profile_archive_parts() to reject absolute paths
(POSIX and Windows), traversal (..), empty paths, backslash tricks
- Add _safe_extract_profile_archive() for manual per-member extraction
that only allows regular files and directories (rejects symlinks)
- Replace shutil.unpack_archive() with the safe extraction path
- Add regression tests for traversal and absolute-path attacks
