# Fix S110 Security Issue in Extractor
|
|
|
|
Replace `try-except-pass` block in `src/helia/analysis/extractor.py` with specific exception handling and logging.
|
|
|
|
## Problem Statement
|
|
|
|
The Security Sentinel identified a distinct security risk (S110) in `src/helia/analysis/extractor.py`. A `try-except-pass` block silently suppresses errors, making debugging impossible and potentially hiding security-critical failures or data corruption issues.
|
|
|
|
## Findings
|
|
|
|
- **File:** `src/helia/analysis/extractor.py`
|
|
- **Issue:** S110 - `try-except-pass` detected.
|
|
- **Impact:** Critical for visibility and system stability. Silent failures can lead to unpredictable application states.
|
|
|
|
## Proposed Solutions
|
|
|
|
### Option 1: Log and Re-raise
|
|
|
|
**Approach:** Catch the specific exception, log the error with a traceback, and optionally re-raise it if the application cannot recover.
|
|
|
|
**Pros:**
|
|
- Full visibility into errors.
|
|
- Prevents silent failures.
|
|
|
|
**Cons:**
|
|
- May require error handling changes upstream if exceptions are raised.
|
|
|
|
### Option 2: Log and Continue (Safe Fallback)
|
|
|
|
**Approach:** Catch specific exception, log it as an error/warning, and set a safe default value or continue processing if appropriate.
|
|
|
|
**Pros:**
|
|
- Prevents application crash while maintaining visibility.
|
|
|
|
**Cons:**
|
|
- Might mask severity if logs aren't monitored.
|
|
|
|
## Recommended Action
|
|
|
|
**To be filled during triage.**

## Technical Details

|
**Affected files:**

- `src/helia/analysis/extractor.py`

## Resources
|
|
|
|
- **Source:** Security Sentinel Report
|
|
|
|
## Acceptance Criteria
|
|
|
|
- [ ] `try-except-pass` block removed.
|
|
- [ ] Specific exception type caught (not bare `except:`).
|
|
- [ ] Error logged using `logging` module (not `print`).
|
|
- [ ] Unit tests added to verify exception handling behavior.
