🚨 Severity: HIGH 💡 Vulnerability: 로그인 등 인증 관련 엔드포인트에서 유저가 존재할 때만 비밀번호 해시 검증을 수행하여, 유저 존재 여부에 따라 응답 시간 차이가 발생하는 타이밍 공격에 노출되어 있었습니다. 🎯 Impact: 공격자가 이 시간 차이를 이용해 데이터베이스에 존재하는 유효한 이메일 주소를 열거할 수 있습니다. 🔧 Fix: 데이터베이스에서 유저를 찾지 못하더라도 항상 미리 생성한 `DUMMY_HASH`를 사용해 비밀번호 검증 로직을 실행하도록 수정하여 유저 존재 여부와 무관하게 일정한 시간이 소요되도록 방어 로직을 구현했습니다. ✅ Verification: `npm run test:api` 및 신규 추가된 `tests/unit/auth-timing.test.mjs` 유닛 테스트를 통해 검증 완료.

| ## 2024-07-12 - Prevent User Enumeration via Authentication Timing Attacks | ||
| **Vulnerability:** The login endpoint verified the provided password hash only if a user record was found. If no user was found, it returned early. This meant requests for valid emails took longer to process than invalid emails, enabling attackers to enumerate valid email addresses via timing discrepancies. | ||
| **Learning:** Returning early on failed database lookups before performing expensive cryptographic operations creates a measurable timing difference. Cryptographic paths must be balanced. | ||
| **Prevention:** Always evaluate passwords against a `DUMMY_HASH` if the user lookup fails, ensuring constant-time execution regardless of whether the user exists. Explicitly coerce passwords to strings (`typeof password === 'string' ? password : ''`) before passing them to the hash verifier to avoid TypeErrors from unexpected JSON payloads while still evaluating against the dummy hash. |

server/auth.mjs:71-78의 verifyPassword는 비문자열 입력에서 false를 반환하며 TypeError를 발생시키지 않습니다. 또한 현재 변경은 전체 요청의 constant-time 실행을 보장하는 것이 아니라 비밀번호 검증 경로의 비용을 균형화합니다. 두 설명을 실제 동작에 맞게 수정하세요.

password_hash 형식을 검증하고 잘못된 값에는 DUMMY_HASH를 사용하세요.
NOT NULL 제약만으로는 salt:hash 형식을 보장할 수 없습니다. verifyPassword는 잘못된 형식에서 scryptSync를 실행하지 않으므로, 존재하는 계정이 미존재 계정보다 빠르게 응답할 수 있습니다. 세 인증 경로에서 유효한 해시일 때만 u.password_hash를 사용하세요.

실제 인증 엔드포인트를 호출하도록 테스트를 변경하세요.
simulateLogin은 server/app.mjs의 구현을 호출하지 않고 동일한 DUMMY_HASH와 verifyPassword 로직을 다시 구현합니다. 따라서 production 인증 코드가 회귀해도 이 테스트는 계속 통과할 수 있습니다. 또한 비밀번호 변경과 계정 삭제 경로는 검증하지 않습니다. 실제 Hono 라우트를 호출하거나 production verifier 호출을 관찰하는 방식으로 세 경로를 테스트하세요.

Problem
POST /api/auth/loginpreviously returned after the user lookup when no account existed, while a known account with a wrong password paid the synchronous scrypt verification cost. That creates a plausible remote account-enumeration signal when repeated measurements can distinguish the two request classes.This PR does not claim constant-time HTTP handling or a universal HIGH-severity exploit. Database lookup, scheduling, network transport and other request work remain variable. The bounded security objective is narrower: an unknown-account login must not skip the expensive password-KDF class solely because the user row is absent.
