Continues #18929, which could not be reopened. Details at the bottom.

Summary

create_commit's delete branch writes a column the model does not have. On current main, api/db/services/file_commit_service.py:373:

# Soft-delete the file record
File.update(status="0", update_time=current_timestamp()).where(File.id == file_id).execute()

File in api/db/db_models.py declares id, parent_id, tenant_id, created_by, name, location, size, type, source_type. There is no status, and no migration adds one. peewee's Model._normalize_data falls back to getattr(cls, key) for an unrecognised keyword, so this raises while the statement is being built.

It happens inside the surrounding with DB.atomic(), so the FileCommit row and every add or modify item batched in the same commit roll back. The route returns 500. Blobs already put() to storage are not rolled back, so they are orphaned.

This is the payload documented in docs/references/http_api_reference.md:

POST /api/v1/workspaces/<folder_id>/commits
{"message":"rm","files":[{"file_id":"f1","file_name":"a.txt","operation":"delete"}]}

Why the suite was green

test/testcases/restful_api/test_file_commit_routes_unit.py declared its own File double with a column the real model lacks:

status = CharField(max_length=1, null=True, default="1", index=True)

so test_create_commit_delete asserted code == 0 against a schema production does not have. The same harness built FileType from plain strings while api/db defines it as a StrEnum, so reading .value from a member raised.

This branch makes both doubles mirror the modules they stand in for. With the schema corrected the delete test reproduces the production failure rather than passing over it:

test_create_commit_delete
res = {'code': 500, 'data': None, 'message': "type object 'FileTestModel' has no attribute 'status'"}

Red against main's service file, green at this head, with the swapped file's blob hash checked against upstream/main before each run:

service file from main:  2 failed, 19 passed
service file at this head: 21 passed

Why remove the row rather than add the column

Line 374 is the only writer of a File status in the tree and nothing reads one. get_by_pf_id does not filter on it, so the soft delete could never have become visible in the workspace listing. Removing the row matches FileService.delete and delete_by_pf_id, and the tree_state entry written immediately below still records the tombstone, so history stays intact.

If you would rather keep the soft-delete intent, the alternative is adding status to the File model plus an alter_db_add_column migration. Happy to switch. That path also needs the listing query to filter on it, or deleted files keep showing up.

Folders are exempt

_build_hierarchical_tree reads file entries from tree_state, so a deleted file keeps its name, hash, size and parent and reconstruction is unaffected. It resolves sub-folder parentage from live File rows, so dropping a folder row makes every historical entry beneath it unreachable.

A folder delete is therefore refused, and the whole change is dropped rather than only the row removal. Recording the tombstone and the commit item while leaving the row in place would have history call the folder deleted when it is not, which is the same drift the guard exists to prevent. A test covers it.

On #18929

I was asked to reopen it. GitHub refuses the reopen with "Could not open the pull request" from both the API and the CLI, and a closed pull request does not pick up new pushes to its branch, so its view is frozen at the old head and still shows the stale base. Same branch, same commits, refreshed onto current main, plus the test work above.

The delete branch calls File.update(status="0", ...), but the File model has no
status column and no migration adds one. peewee falls back to getattr for an
unrecognised kwarg, so this raises AttributeError while the statement is being
built, inside the surrounding DB.atomic(). The FileCommit row and every add or
modify item batched in the same commit roll back with it, the route answers 500,
and blobs already written to storage are left orphaned.

Nothing reads a File status: this line is its only writer in the tree, and the
workspace listing does not filter on it, so the soft delete could never have
become visible. Deleting the row matches FileService.delete, and the tree_state
entry written just below still records the tombstone.

The unit test covers this path but defines its own File double carrying an extra
status column, which is why the suite stays green.
_build_hierarchical_tree resolves sub-folder parentage from live File rows,
so removing a folder row makes every historical entry beneath it unreachable.
File entries are read from tree_state instead, so they are unaffected.

create_commit takes file_id straight from the request and never checks the type,
so a folder id reached the delete. Guard it, and skip the statement when the row
is already gone rather than issuing a no-op delete.
Skipping only the File.delete() left the rest of the iteration running, so the
folder still received a tree_state tombstone and a FileCommitItem. History then
called it deleted while its row was still present.
…efusal

The route test doubles did not match the modules they stand in for. The
File double declared a status column that api/db/db_models.py does not
have, which let the delete path assert success against a schema
production lacks. FileType was built from plain strings, so reading
.value from a member raised, unlike the StrEnum in api/db.

Both doubles now mirror their real counterparts. With the schema
corrected, the delete test reproduces the production failure against the
old code instead of passing over it, and it now asserts the row is
actually gone rather than only checking the response code.

Adds a case for the folder refusal: a folder keeps its row, and no
commit item is recorded, so history cannot call it deleted while the row
is still there.

Walkthrough

File commit deletion now physically removes non-folder File rows. Folder deletion is refused without creating commit history or tree-state changes. Unit tests update the file model and enum stub, then verify both outcomes.

The delete branch now hard-deletes non-folder rows. It skips folder rows with a warning. Non-folder deletes still write tree-state tombstones.

The test model removes status, uses a StrEnum file-type stub, and verifies physical file removal and refused folder deletion.

Keep file_count aligned with saved commit items.

create_commit stores file_count=len(file_changes) before processing changes inside DB.atomic(). A refused folder delete then continues before FileCommitItem.save, but the transaction completes and persists the FileCommit. The result is a commit whose count exceeds its saved items, contrary to FileCommit.file_count's “number of files in this commit” meaning. Count accepted changes before creating the commit, or update file_count after processing.

IDOR

Reachability: External
Exploitability: Moderate
CWE: CWE-639 — Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key (IDOR)

Enforce folder and tenant scope before deleting a file.

The route authorizes only the requested folder, then passes the client-supplied files list to create_commit. The delete branch loads and deletes any non-folder row by File.id without checking its parent chain or tenant_id. An authorized caller can therefore delete an unrelated known file ID. Validate every delete target against the authorized folder and tenant before executing the delete.
