+# GrabZilla 2.1 Security Review Report
+
+**Review Date:** 2025-10-07
+**Reviewer:** Claude Code Security Analysis
+**Codebase Version:** 2.1.0
+**Status:** 🟡 MODERATE - Some issues require attention
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+GrabZilla 2.1 demonstrates **good security practices** in most areas, particularly in Electron security architecture and IPC isolation. However, there are **several medium-priority issues** that should be addressed before production release, primarily around input validation, path sanitization, and dependency management.
+
+### Risk Assessment
+- **Critical Issues:** 0
+- **High Priority:** 2
+- **Medium Priority:** 5
+- **Low Priority:** 4
+- **Good Practices:** 8
+
+---
+
+## 1. CRITICAL ISSUES
+
+### None Found ✅
+
+No critical security vulnerabilities were identified that would allow remote code execution, privilege escalation, or direct data exfiltration.
+
+---
+
+## 2. HIGH PRIORITY ISSUES
+
+### H1. Insufficient Path Traversal Protection
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:806`, `src/main.js:473-478`
+
+**Description:**
+File paths from user input are not fully sanitized against directory traversal attacks. While basic validation exists, there's no explicit prevention of `../` sequences or absolute path injection.
+
+**Impact:**
+An attacker could potentially:
+- Write files outside the intended download directory
+- Overwrite system files if the app has sufficient permissions
+- Access sensitive directories through crafted filenames
+
+**Code Example:**
+```javascript
+// src/main.js:806 - Insufficient sanitization
+'-o', path.join(savePath, '%(title)s.%(ext)s'),
+```
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Add path sanitization function
+function sanitizePath(userPath) {
+  // Resolve to absolute path
+  const resolved = path.resolve(userPath);
+
+  // Ensure it's within allowed directories
+  const allowedBase = path.resolve(app.getPath('home'));
+  if (!resolved.startsWith(allowedBase)) {
+    throw new Error('Path outside allowed directory');
+  }
+
+  // Remove dangerous characters
+  return resolved.replace(/[<>:"|?*]/g, '_');
+}
+
+// Usage:
+const sanitizedPath = sanitizePath(savePath);
+'-o', path.join(sanitizedPath, '%(title)s.%(ext)s'),
+```
+
+**Priority:** HIGH
+**Estimated Effort:** 2-3 hours
+
+---
+
+### H2. Cookie File Path Injection Risk
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:811-813`, `src/main.js:1108-1115`
+
+**Description:**
+Cookie file paths are passed directly to yt-dlp without sufficient validation beyond existence checks. An attacker with file system access could point to arbitrary files.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Potential information disclosure if arbitrary files are read by yt-dlp
+- System files could be passed as cookie files
+- No content validation of cookie file format
+
+**Code Example:**
+```javascript
+// src/main.js:811 - Insufficient validation
+if (cookieFile && fs.existsSync(cookieFile)) {
+  args.unshift('--cookies', cookieFile)
+}
+```
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Enhanced cookie file validation
+function validateCookieFile(filePath) {
+  if (!filePath || typeof filePath !== 'string') {
+    throw new Error('Invalid cookie file path');
+  }
+
+  // Check file exists
+  if (!fs.existsSync(filePath)) {
+    throw new Error('Cookie file not found');
+  }
+
+  // Check it's a regular file (not directory/symlink)
+  const stats = fs.lstatSync(filePath);
+  if (!stats.isFile()) {
+    throw new Error('Cookie file must be a regular file');
+  }
+
+  // Validate file extension
+  const ext = path.extname(filePath).toLowerCase();
+  if (!['.txt', '.cookies'].includes(ext)) {
+    throw new Error('Invalid cookie file format');
+  }
+
+  // Check file size (reasonable limit)
+  if (stats.size > 1024 * 1024) { // 1MB max
+    throw new Error('Cookie file too large');
+  }
+
+  // Validate content format (basic Netscape cookie check)
+  const content = fs.readFileSync(filePath, 'utf8');
+  const lines = content.split('\n').filter(l => l.trim() && !l.startsWith('#'));
+
+  for (const line of lines.slice(0, 5)) { // Check first 5 lines
+    const parts = line.split('\t');
+    if (parts.length < 7) {
+      throw new Error('Invalid cookie file format');
+    }
+  }
+
+  return filePath;
+}
+
+// Usage in main.js:
+const validatedCookieFile = cookieFile ? validateCookieFile(cookieFile) : null;
+if (validatedCookieFile) {
+  args.unshift('--cookies', validatedCookieFile);
+}
+```
+
+**Priority:** HIGH
+**Estimated Effort:** 3-4 hours
+
+---
+
+## 3. MEDIUM PRIORITY ISSUES
+
+### M1. URL Validation Bypass via Unicode/Punycode
+
+**Location:** `scripts/utils/url-validator.js:23-27`
+
+**Description:**
+URL validation uses regex patterns that may not properly handle internationalized domain names (IDN), Unicode characters, or punycode sequences. This could allow malicious URLs to bypass validation.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Homograph attacks (e.g., `youtubе.com` with Cyrillic 'е')
+- SSRF attacks targeting internal networks via Unicode encoding
+- Bypass of platform restrictions
+
+**Code Example:**
+```javascript
+// Current validation - vulnerable to Unicode bypasses
+const videoPattern = /^(https?:\/\/)?(www\.)?(youtube\.com\/...|youtu\.be\/)[\w\-_]{11}([?&].*)?$/i;
+```
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Add URL normalization and stricter validation
+function validateAndNormalizeUrl(url) {
+  try {
+    // Parse URL with built-in URL API (handles Unicode)
+    const parsed = new URL(url);
+
+    // Normalize hostname (converts punycode, lowercase)
+    const normalizedHost = parsed.hostname.toLowerCase().normalize('NFKC');
+
+    // Whitelist allowed domains (prevent homograph attacks)
+    const allowedDomains = [
+      'youtube.com',
+      'www.youtube.com',
+      'youtu.be',
+      'm.youtube.com',
+      'vimeo.com',
+      'www.vimeo.com',
+      'player.vimeo.com'
+    ];
+
+    if (!allowedDomains.includes(normalizedHost)) {
+      throw new Error('Domain not allowed');
+    }
+
+    // Ensure protocol is http/https only
+    if (!['http:', 'https:'].includes(parsed.protocol)) {
+      throw new Error('Invalid protocol');
+    }
+
+    // Prevent private IP ranges (SSRF protection)
+    if (/^(10\.|172\.(1[6-9]|2[0-9]|3[01])\.|192\.168\.)/.test(parsed.hostname)) {
+      throw new Error('Private IP addresses not allowed');
+    }
+
+    return parsed.toString();
+  } catch (error) {
+    throw new Error(`Invalid URL: ${error.message}`);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Priority:** MEDIUM
+**Estimated Effort:** 4-5 hours
+
+---
+
+### M2. Command Injection Risk in FFmpeg Arguments
+
+**Location:** `scripts/utils/ffmpeg-converter.js:473-478`
+
+**Description:**
+While file paths are handled relatively safely, there's no explicit escaping or validation of format/quality parameters that become part of ffmpeg command arguments.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Potential command injection if quality/format values are manipulated
+- Arbitrary command execution if malicious values reach ffmpeg
+
+**Code Example:**
+```javascript
+// Current - assumes quality/format are safe
+const args = [
+  '-i', inputPath,
+  '-y',
+  ...this.getEncodingArgs(format, quality), // Potentially unsafe
+  outputPath
+];
+```
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Add parameter validation and whitelisting
+function validateConversionParams(format, quality) {
+  const ALLOWED_FORMATS = ['H264', 'ProRes', 'DNxHR', 'Audio only'];
+  const ALLOWED_QUALITIES = ['4K', '1440p', '1080p', '720p', '480p', 'best'];
+
+  if (!ALLOWED_FORMATS.includes(format)) {
+    throw new Error(`Invalid format: ${format}`);
+  }
+
+  if (!ALLOWED_QUALITIES.includes(quality)) {
+    throw new Error(`Invalid quality: ${quality}`);
+  }
+
+  return { format, quality };
+}
+
+// Usage:
+async convertVideo(options) {
+  const validated = validateConversionParams(options.format, options.quality);
+  const args = [
+    '-i', inputPath,
+    '-y',
+    ...this.getEncodingArgs(validated.format, validated.quality),
+    outputPath
+  ];
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+**Priority:** MEDIUM
+**Estimated Effort:** 2 hours
+
+---
+
+### M3. Insecure Clipboard Monitoring
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:237-266`
+
+**Description:**
+Clipboard monitoring reads all clipboard content and applies regex matching. This could expose sensitive data if users copy passwords, tokens, or API keys that happen to match video URL patterns.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Potential leakage of sensitive data to logs
+- Privacy concerns with continuous clipboard monitoring
+- No user consent or clear indication of monitoring
+
+**Code Example:**
+```javascript
+// src/main.js:243-259 - Monitors all clipboard content
+clipboardMonitorInterval = setInterval(() => {
+  const currentText = clipboard.readText();
+  // Processes all clipboard content
+}, 1000);
+```
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// 1. Add explicit user consent
+// 2. Implement clipboard data sanitization
+// 3. Don't log clipboard content
+
+ipcMain.handle('start-clipboard-monitor', async (event, options = {}) => {
+  try {
+    // Ensure explicit consent
+    if (!options.userConsented) {
+      return {
+        success: false,
+        message: 'User consent required for clipboard monitoring'
+      };
+    }
+
+    // Already monitoring
+    if (clipboardMonitorInterval) {
+      return { success: false, message: 'Already monitoring' };
+    }
+
+    lastClipboardText = clipboard.readText();
+
+    clipboardMonitorInterval = setInterval(() => {
+      const currentText = clipboard.readText();
+
+      if (currentText && currentText !== lastClipboardText) {
+        lastClipboardText = currentText;
+
+        // ONLY check for video URLs, don't process or log other content
+        const youtubeMatch = /^https?:\/\/(www\.)?(youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.*$/i.test(currentText);
+        const vimeoMatch = /^https?:\/\/(www\.)?vimeo\.com\/\d+$/i.test(currentText);
+
+        if (youtubeMatch || vimeoMatch) {
+          // Only send if it's a valid video URL
+          event.sender.send('clipboard-url-detected', currentText);
+        }
+        // Don't log or process non-URL clipboard content
+      }
+    }, 1000);
+
+    return { success: true };
+  } catch (error) {
+    // Don't expose clipboard content in error logs
+    console.error('Error starting clipboard monitor');
+    return { success: false, error: 'Monitoring failed' };
+  }
+});
+```
+
+**Priority:** MEDIUM
+**Estimated Effort:** 2-3 hours
+
+---
+
+### M4. Electron Dependency Vulnerability
+
+**Location:** `package.json:32`, npm audit output
+
+**Description:**
+Electron version 33.0.0 has a known moderate severity vulnerability (GHSA-vmqv-hx8q-j7mg) - ASAR Integrity Bypass via resource modification.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Attackers with local file system access could modify ASAR archives
+- Integrity checks can be bypassed
+- Code injection possible if attacker has file system access
+
+**CVE Details:**
+- **CVE:** GHSA-vmqv-hx8q-j7mg
+- **Severity:** Moderate (CVSS 6.1)
+- **Affected:** electron < 35.7.5
+- **Fixed in:** 35.7.5+
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```json
+// package.json - Update Electron
+{
+  "devDependencies": {
+    "electron": "^35.7.5"  // Update from 33.0.0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Then run:
+```bash
+npm install electron@35.7.5
+npm audit fix
+```
+
+**Priority:** MEDIUM
+**Estimated Effort:** 1-2 hours (testing required)
+
+---
+
+### M5. Excessive Logging of Sensitive Data
+
+**Location:** Throughout codebase - 102 console.log statements in main process
+
+**Description:**
+Excessive logging in production could expose:
+- File paths (may contain usernames)
+- Cookie file locations
+- Full download URLs (may contain authentication tokens)
+- Internal application state
+
+**Impact:**
+- Information disclosure via log files
+- Privacy violations if logs are shared
+- Potential credential leakage
+
+**Code Example:**
+```javascript
+// src/main.js:89 - Logs full path
+console.log('Selected save directory:', selectedPath)
+
+// src/main.js:165 - Logs cookie file path
+console.log('Selected cookie file:', selectedPath)
+```
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Implement log level system
+const LOG_LEVEL = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production' ? 'ERROR' : 'DEBUG';
+
+const logger = {
+  debug: (msg, data) => {
+    if (LOG_LEVEL === 'DEBUG') {
+      console.log(msg, data);
+    }
+  },
+  info: (msg) => console.log(msg),
+  warn: (msg, data) => console.warn(msg, data),
+  error: (msg, error) => console.error(msg, error),
+
+  // Sanitize sensitive data
+  sanitizePath: (fullPath) => {
+    if (!fullPath) return 'N/A';
+    return `.../${path.basename(fullPath)}`;
+  }
+};
+
+// Usage:
+logger.debug('Selected save directory:', logger.sanitizePath(selectedPath));
+
+// In production, this won't log
+// In development, it shows: "Selected save directory: .../MyFolder"
+```
+
+**Priority:** MEDIUM
+**Estimated Effort:** 4-6 hours (refactoring required)
+
+---
+
+## 4. LOW PRIORITY ISSUES
+
+### L1. Missing Rate Limiting on IPC Calls
+
+**Location:** `src/preload.js` - All IPC handlers
+
+**Description:**
+No rate limiting on IPC calls from renderer process. While not immediately exploitable, a compromised renderer could flood the main process with requests.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Potential denial of service
+- Resource exhaustion
+- UI freeze if main process is overwhelmed
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Implement IPC rate limiter
+class IPCRateLimiter {
+  constructor(maxCalls = 100, windowMs = 1000) {
+    this.maxCalls = maxCalls;
+    this.windowMs = windowMs;
+    this.calls = new Map();
+  }
+
+  isAllowed(channel) {
+    const now = Date.now();
+    const calls = this.calls.get(channel) || [];
+
+    // Remove old calls outside window
+    const recentCalls = calls.filter(time => now - time < this.windowMs);
+
+    if (recentCalls.length >= this.maxCalls) {
+      return false;
+    }
+
+    recentCalls.push(now);
+    this.calls.set(channel, recentCalls);
+    return true;
+  }
+}
+
+const rateLimiter = new IPCRateLimiter();
+
+// Wrap IPC handlers
+ipcMain.handle('download-video', async (event, options) => {
+  if (!rateLimiter.isAllowed('download-video')) {
+    throw new Error('Rate limit exceeded');
+  }
+  // ... rest of handler
+});
+```
+
+**Priority:** LOW
+**Estimated Effort:** 3-4 hours
+
+---
+
+### L2. Weak Error Message Sanitization
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:1523-1612` - parseDownloadError function
+
+**Description:**
+Error messages from yt-dlp are partially sanitized but could still expose internal paths or system information.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Information disclosure about internal file structure
+- Potential exposure of system configuration
+- Version information leakage
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+function sanitizeErrorMessage(error) {
+  if (!error) return 'Unknown error';
+
+  // Remove file paths
+  let sanitized = error.replace(/[A-Za-z]:\\[\w\\.-]+/g, '[PATH]');
+  sanitized = sanitized.replace(/\/[\w\/.-]+/g, '[PATH]');
+
+  // Remove IP addresses
+  sanitized = sanitized.replace(/\b\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\b/g, '[IP]');
+
+  // Remove URLs (except domain)
+  sanitized = sanitized.replace(/https?:\/\/[^\s]+/g, (url) => {
+    try {
+      const parsed = new URL(url);
+      return `https://${parsed.hostname}`;
+    } catch {
+      return '[URL]';
+    }
+  });
+
+  return sanitized;
+}
+```
+
+**Priority:** LOW
+**Estimated Effort:** 2 hours
+
+---
+
+### L3. No Integrity Verification for Downloaded Binaries
+
+**Location:** `setup.js` (not reviewed in detail, but likely present)
+
+**Description:**
+Downloaded binaries (yt-dlp, ffmpeg) don't appear to have checksum/signature verification.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Supply chain attack risk
+- Man-in-the-middle attacks during setup
+- Compromised binaries could be installed
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Add checksum verification in setup.js
+const crypto = require('crypto');
+
+async function verifyBinaryChecksum(filePath, expectedHash, algorithm = 'sha256') {
+  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+    const hash = crypto.createHash(algorithm);
+    const stream = fs.createReadStream(filePath);
+
+    stream.on('data', (data) => hash.update(data));
+    stream.on('end', () => {
+      const calculatedHash = hash.digest('hex');
+      if (calculatedHash === expectedHash) {
+        resolve(true);
+      } else {
+        reject(new Error(`Checksum mismatch: expected ${expectedHash}, got ${calculatedHash}`));
+      }
+    });
+    stream.on('error', reject);
+  });
+}
+
+// Usage:
+const YTDLP_CHECKSUMS = {
+  'darwin-arm64': 'abc123...',
+  'darwin-x64': 'def456...',
+  'win32': 'ghi789...'
+};
+
+await verifyBinaryChecksum(ytdlpPath, YTDLP_CHECKSUMS[platform]);
+```
+
+**Priority:** LOW
+**Estimated Effort:** 4-6 hours (requires checksum management)
+
+---
+
+### L4. Insecure Temporary File Handling
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:1485-1491` - Cleanup of temporary files
+
+**Description:**
+Temporary files are deleted but not securely wiped. On some file systems, deleted files can be recovered.
+
+**Impact:**
+- Downloaded videos could be recovered from disk
+- Cookie files in temp locations could leak
+- Privacy concerns for sensitive content
+
+**Recommendation:**
+```javascript
+// Secure file deletion
+function secureDelete(filePath) {
+  try {
+    // Overwrite with random data before deletion (basic)
+    const stats = fs.statSync(filePath);
+    const size = stats.size;
+    const buffer = crypto.randomBytes(Math.min(size, 1024 * 1024)); // 1MB max
+
+    const fd = fs.openSync(filePath, 'r+');
+    fs.writeSync(fd, buffer, 0, buffer.length, 0);
+    fs.fsyncSync(fd);
+    fs.closeSync(fd);
+
+    // Now delete
+    fs.unlinkSync(filePath);
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.warn('Secure deletion failed, using standard delete:', error);
+    fs.unlinkSync(filePath);
+  }
+}
+
+// Usage:
+secureDelete(inputPath);
+```
+
+**Note:** This is basic security. For high-security needs, use specialized tools.
+
+**Priority:** LOW
+**Estimated Effort:** 2-3 hours
+
+---
+
+## 5. GOOD SECURITY PRACTICES ✅
+
+### G1. Excellent Electron Security Configuration
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:23-27`
+
+```javascript
+webPreferences: {
+  nodeIntegration: false,        // ✅ Disabled
+  contextIsolation: true,         // ✅ Enabled
+  enableRemoteModule: false,      // ✅ Disabled
+  preload: path.join(__dirname, 'preload.js')
+}
+```
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- Prevents renderer process from accessing Node.js APIs directly
+- Isolates web content from privileged APIs
+- Follows Electron security best practices
+
+---
+
+### G2. Proper IPC Security Boundary
+
+**Location:** `src/preload.js:1-85`
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- Uses `contextBridge` to expose limited API surface
+- No direct IPC access from renderer
+- All operations go through validated handlers
+- Clear separation between renderer and main process
+
+---
+
+### G3. External Link Protection
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:52-55`
+
+```javascript
+mainWindow.webContents.setWindowOpenHandler(({ url }) => {
+  shell.openExternal(url)
+  return { action: 'deny' }
+})
+```
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- External links open in system browser
+- Prevents navigation hijacking
+- Protects against window.open attacks
+
+---
+
+### G4. File Permission Validation
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:87-88`, `154-156`
+
+```javascript
+await fs.promises.access(selectedPath, fs.constants.W_OK)  // Write check
+await fs.promises.access(selectedPath, fs.constants.R_OK)   // Read check
+```
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- Validates file permissions before operations
+- Prevents permission errors during downloads
+- Fails fast with clear error messages
+
+---
+
+### G5. Binary Existence Verification
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:722-734`
+
+```javascript
+if (!fs.existsSync(ytDlpPath)) {
+  const error = 'yt-dlp binary not found...'
+  throw new Error(error)
+}
+```
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- Validates binaries exist before execution
+- Clear error messages for missing dependencies
+- Prevents execution of non-existent commands
+
+---
+
+### G6. Secure Spawn Usage
+
+**Location:** Throughout main.js
+
+```javascript
+const downloadProcess = spawn(ytDlpPath, args, {
+  stdio: ['pipe', 'pipe', 'pipe'],
+  cwd: process.cwd()
+})
+```
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- Uses `spawn` instead of `exec` (safer for user input)
+- Arguments passed as array (prevents shell injection)
+- No shell interpretation of arguments
+
+---
+
+### G7. Input Type Validation
+
+**Location:** `src/main.js:113-115`, `189-191`
+
+```javascript
+if (!dirPath || typeof dirPath !== 'string') {
+  return { success: false, error: 'Invalid directory path' }
+}
+```
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- Validates parameter types before processing
+- Rejects non-string inputs
+- Prevents type confusion attacks
+
+---
+
+### G8. No Hardcoded Credentials
+
+**Finding:** ✅ No hardcoded passwords, API keys, or secrets found
+
+**Method:** Grep search for common secret patterns
+
+**Why This is Good:**
+- No credentials in source code
+- No API keys committed to repository
+- Follows secret management best practices
+
+---
