ADFA-5241: Declare utf-8 on text responses from the documentation database - #1725
Conversation
…abase WebServer wrote the stored MIME type into Content-Type verbatim, and no ContentTypes.value in documentation.db carries a charset, so every text response left its encoding unstated. A client that does not assume UTF-8 falls back to a legacy single-byte encoding: of 500 sampled text rows, 328 (66%) contain non-ASCII bytes with no BOM, and those render as mojibake. Observed on device while confirming ADFA-5239 -- a/android/R.id.html shows "   ↳android.R.id" where the page says "↳android.R.id". Two things made this invisible until now. Those pages were being served as text/plain (ADFA-5239), so they rendered as source rather than as documents, and Android's WebSettings.defaultTextEncodingName defaults to UTF-8, which likely spares the in-app viewer -- nothing in the app sets that property, so it relies on the default. Neither is a reason to leave the header unstated: correctness by client default is per-client behaviour, not something this server declares, and the same file already sends "; charset=utf-8" on its hardcoded responses (lines 1176, 1225, 1247, 1310). Only database-sourced content was missing it. The predicate lives in common/ContentTypeHeaders rather than in WebServer, because ADFA-5176's in-process transport already answers this question on its own -- DocumentationRequestInterceptor.mimeAndCharset defaults text/* to utf-8 -- and the two transports disagreeing about what a response says is worse than either answer. That branch should adopt this on its rebase. What gets a charset, and why not more: every text subtype, including the database's malformed bare "text" (which 726 TooltipButtons reach via x.html) and "text/text"; XML-based types, since SVG usually omits its own declaration and a transport charset takes precedence anyway. Not application/json -- RFC 8259 defines no charset parameter for it and fixes the encoding as UTF-8, so declaring one says nothing; there is a test asserting that, so nobody "fixes" it later. An already-declared charset is never doubled. Deliberately not fixed in the database. Putting the parameter in ContentTypes.value would work for both readers, but that column doubles as a lookup key matched exactly by ExtensionToContentTypeResolver (the plugin installer would skip every HTML asset), by docdb-studio's anchor extraction, and by three OfflineDocumentationTools scripts. Two of those fail silently. The analysis is on ADFA-5241. Tests: 7 for the helper -- text, the malformed types, XML, the binary set, the JSON exclusion, no doubling, and casing/parameter tolerance -- plus one that asserts the header a real client receives, since the helper being right does not prove the response is.

values beginning with “text/”, and parse semicolon-delimited parameters so only
a parameter whose name is charset suppresses the UTF-8 result; quoted values or

…undaries Both from CodeRabbit on PR #1725. `type.startsWith("text")` classified `textual/example` as a text response. The comment beside it already said the intent was "every text subtype, plus the bare text oddity" -- the code just did not say that. Now `type == "text" || type.startsWith("text/")`. `mimeType.contains("charset=")` found the substring inside *another* parameter's value, so `text/html; note="charset=utf-8"` looked like it already declared an encoding and got none added. Parameters are now split on `;` and matched by name, which also keeps `text/html;boundary=x` working. Neither case exists in documentation.db today -- no ContentTypes.value carries a parameter at all -- so this is about the helper being honest rather than a live defect. Both have regression tests. Also dropped the non-ASCII from the KDoc, which quoted the mojibake it was describing. The ASCII policy exempts a glyph doing real visual work, and I had read the example as qualifying; naming the code point instead reads the same, which means it does not qualify. The file is now pure ASCII. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…nts as text From the code review on PR #1725. Four correctness findings, all real. Splitting on ';' still finds "charset=" inside a quoted value that contains a semicolon -- text/html; note="x; charset=utf-8" -- so the helper concluded a charset was already declared and sent none at all: the exact failure its own KDoc claimed the split prevented. And a parameter with no value (; charset) or an empty one (; charset=) was read as a declaration, with the same result. Parameters are now parsed with quote awareness, and only a charset parameter with a non-empty value counts as declared. The textual application/* list omitted application/javascript, which does have rows and is what ExtensionToContentTypeResolver maps ".mjs" to, so real files served undeclared -- the bug this class exists to prevent. Added it along with ecmascript and x-sh, and said in the comment that the list is a list precisely because these types share no marker, so anything textual arriving later has to be added rather than assumed covered. The header value is now built before the status line goes out. The writer autoflushes, so a throw after the first println made sendError append a second status line to a response that already claimed 200, which a client parses as a malformed header rather than as an error. dbMimeType is a platform type from Cursor.getString, so a NULL ContentTypes.value is a real way to reach that throw. typeAndCharset is exposed because ADFA-5176's interceptor needs the type and the charset apart for WebResourceResponse and was re-implementing the parse to get them -- with the naive substring match this file warns against. The class was created so both transports answer alike; keeping the parse private meant they agreed on the default and disagreed on reading what was already there. The "two thirds" statistic is replaced with a full census of the database it was measured on: 17,903 of 29,139 text rows, 61.4%. The review measured 22.5% against the bundled asset, which is an older export -- both numbers are right for their own database, so the KDoc now names which one and says the rate is per-generation. Four regression tests for the parsing cases, one for the textual types, one for typeAndCharset. The header assertion now prints the whole response when no Content-Type is found instead of throwing NoSuchElementException, and no longer declares a compression-dictionary version it does not use.

…med inputs Both from the re-review on #1725. An escaped quote no longer ends a quoted parameter value. RFC 9110's quoted-pair means \" does not close the string, but the parser toggled on every quote, so text/html; note="a\"; charset=iso-8859-1 parsed as two parameters and the charset inside note read as a declaration -- the same false match this class exists to prevent. An empty charset parameter is now left alone rather than contradicted. headerValue used to append a second charset, producing text/html; charset=; charset=utf-8. Recipients keep an empty valued parameter and ignore a repeated name, so that append claims a fix it does not make. A parameter with no = at all is still appended to, because that one really is dropped during parsing, so the appended charset takes effect. typeAndCharset keeps substituting the default either way -- it hands the charset back as its own value, where nothing can conflict with it. Both tests were confirmed to fail against the previous parser. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Its KDoc said null meant the type already carried a charset, without saying that an empty one counts -- which is the interesting case, and the reason typeAndCharset answers differently for the same input. Both now state the asymmetry and why it exists. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…ored Review of this PR found that appending a charset to the stored string leaves the header no better formed than the database happened to be -- and that on the row this change was written for, it does nothing at all. The database stores a bare "text" (one row, x.html) and a "text/text" (ten licence files). Neither is a media type -- type "/" subtype is required -- and a client that cannot parse the type discards the charset with it, so those rows went on being sniffed exactly as before. Both normalize to text/plain now. A stored value carrying a control character was written into the response verbatim by println(). ContentTypes.value comes from a database that a debug build swaps in from shared storage, so a planted value containing CR/LF would split one response into two. Such a value is refused rather than repaired: application/octet-stream renders nothing and injects nothing. charsetFor and typeAndCharset disagreed for "text/html; charset=" -- one appended nothing, the other substituted utf-8 -- so the two documentation transports declared different encodings for one stored value, which is the divergence this class exists to remove. Both take the same decision from the same call now, because headerValue rebuilds the header from the parsed parts: one normalized type, the other parameters as they were, exactly one charset. Rebuilding also makes "; charset" and "; charset=" replaceable rather than contradictable, so the malformed forms are no longer emitted at all. With rebuilding, the first *usable* charset became the right one to read rather than simply the first. While this appended, the first mattered, because that is the one a first-wins recipient keeps; now that exactly one is emitted, serving "charset=; charset=iso-8859-1" as utf-8 would garble a page that says plainly what it is. My own test caught that. Also from the review: handleClient's error path called sendError without outputStarted, so a failure while writing the body -- a dropped connection being the common one -- appended a second status line to a response that had already claimed 200. It reports whether the response had started now, as the other call sites in this file already do. The tests move to Truth, which ARCHITECTURE.md requires and this file was not using, and the comment volume comes down: the asymmetry was explained in four separate KDocs and no longer exists to explain. 341 tests pass across :common and :app. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Same response splitting the check was added to stop, one segment further along, in the fix for it.

…ft open safeType refused a value carrying a control character, but the refusal was read back out of its return value -- OCTET_STREAM with no charset -- and a control character inside the charset parameter defeated that: declaredCharset re-parsed the original string, found a charset, so "refused" was never true, and headerValue appended the CRLF-bearing value verbatim. WebServer writes the result with println, so text/html; charset=x<CR><LF><CR><LF><script>alert(1)</script> split the reply into two HTTP responses with an attacker-chosen body -- the one thing this class exists to prevent. The two existing "refused, not repaired" tests put their control character in the type segment or a note= parameter, so neither could see it. Refusal is asked now, not inferred: one isUntrustworthy() consulted by both typeAndCharset and headerValue. That also stops a legitimately stored application/octet-stream; name=file.bin from being mistaken for a refusal and losing its parameters. The charset is the one value that skipped quoteIfNeeded, so a stored charset="utf-8; x=y" -- whose quotes parameters() strips -- came back out as a charset plus a smuggled second parameter. It goes through the same quoting as every other parameter value now. Four tests, three of which fail against the previous logic. 84 common tests pass. Found in review of PR #1725.
* ADFA-5241: Declare utf-8 on text responses from the documentation database WebServer wrote the stored MIME type into Content-Type verbatim, and no ContentTypes.value in documentation.db carries a charset, so every text response left its encoding unstated. A client that does not assume UTF-8 falls back to a legacy single-byte encoding: of 500 sampled text rows, 328 (66%) contain non-ASCII bytes with no BOM, and those render as mojibake. Observed on device while confirming ADFA-5239 -- a/android/R.id.html shows "   ↳android.R.id" where the page says "↳android.R.id". Two things made this invisible until now. Those pages were being served as text/plain (ADFA-5239), so they rendered as source rather than as documents, and Android's WebSettings.defaultTextEncodingName defaults to UTF-8, which likely spares the in-app viewer -- nothing in the app sets that property, so it relies on the default.

Only database-sourced content was missing it. The predicate lives in common/ContentTypeHeaders rather than in WebServer, because ADFA-5176's in-process transport already answers this question on its own -- DocumentationRequestInterceptor.mimeAndCharset defaults text/* to utf-8 -- and the two transports disagreeing about what a response says is worse than either answer. That branch should adopt this on its rebase. What gets a charset, and why not more: every text subtype, including the database's malformed bare "text" (which 726 TooltipButtons reach via x.html) and "text/text"; XML-based types, since SVG usually omits its own declaration and a transport charset takes precedence anyway.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5241: Match the media type and the charset parameter at their boundaries Both from CodeRabbit on PR #1725. `type.startsWith("text")` classified `textual/example` as a text response. The comment beside it already said the intent was "every text subtype, plus the bare text oddity" -- the code just did not say that. Now `type == "text" || type.startsWith("text/")`. `mimeType.contains("charset=")` found the substring inside *another* parameter's value, so `text/html; note="charset=utf-8"` looked like it already declared an encoding and got none added. Parameters are now split on `;` and matched by name, which also keeps `text/html;boundary=x` working. Neither case exists in documentation.db today -- no ContentTypes.value carries a parameter at all -- so this is about the helper being honest rather than a live defect. Both have regression tests. Also dropped the non-ASCII from the KDoc, which quoted the mojibake it was describing. The ASCII policy exempts a glyph doing real visual work, and I had read the example as qualifying; naming the code point instead reads the same, which means it does not qualify. The file is now pure ASCII. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5176: Serve documentation to the app's WebViews in-process One pipeline for reading documentation.db, in common, with two transports over it. DocumentationContentSource owns row lookup, chunked-row reassembly, the dictionary-aware Brotli decode and the sdcard debug-database swap, under a read/write lock so readers do not have the handle closed under them. It also renders the Pebble template rows, so both transports serve finished pages and neither carries the template engine. DocumentationRequestInterceptor answers the app's own WebViews through WebViewClient.shouldInterceptRequest, so a page's assets cost a database read instead of a TCP connection each. It matches the same http://localhost:6174/... URL space, so strings.xml, ToolTipManager's link builder and the DocumentationExtension contract need no changes, and anything it declines -- a /pr/ endpoint, an unknown path, a failed read -- falls through to WebServer. The CodeOnTheGo.nointercept sentinel forces everything back onto the socket. WebServer keeps serving port 6174 for WebViews that are not wired to the interceptor and for the /pr/ developer endpoints, but it now reads through the shared source: no database handle, no Pebble engine, no gson, no decode path of its own. What is left is HTTP. This is a port rather than the original branch. ADFA-5172 was an investigation whose instrumentation is abandoned, and ADFA-5175's worker pool is declined, so the accept loop here is stage's single-threaded one and the config fields those tickets added are gone. The two duplicated rules the original carried are now shared instead: * The dictionary is gated on the version the database declares (DatabaseVersionResolver.resolveMajorVersion), as WebServer already does, rather than on whether a CompressionDictionary table happens to exist. * The charset comes from ContentTypeHeaders (ADFA-5241), so a row does not describe itself differently depending on which transport served it. The interceptor previously said utf-8 for text/ only, which left an SVG served in-process declaring no encoding while the same row over the socket declared one. 356 tests across app and common pass, including 14 for the content source and 9 for the interceptor. The two WebServer tests that assert the dictionary loads once per database now declare a version, without which the gate would leave them passing while testing nothing. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5241: Parse Content-Type parameters properly, and widen what counts as text From the code review on PR #1725. Four correctness findings, all real. Splitting on ';' still finds "charset=" inside a quoted value that contains a semicolon -- text/html; note="x; charset=utf-8" -- so the helper concluded a charset was already declared and sent none at all: the exact failure its own KDoc claimed the split prevented. And a parameter with no value (; charset) or an empty one (; charset=) was read as a declaration, with the same result. Parameters are now parsed with quote awareness, and only a charset parameter with a non-empty value counts as declared. The textual application/* list omitted application/javascript, which does have rows and is what ExtensionToContentTypeResolver maps ".mjs" to, so real files served undeclared -- the bug this class exists to prevent. Added it along with ecmascript and x-sh, and said in the comment that the list is a list precisely because these types share no marker, so anything textual arriving later has to be added rather than assumed covered. The header value is now built before the status line goes out. The writer autoflushes, so a throw after the first println made sendError append a second status line to a response that already claimed 200, which a client parses as a malformed header rather than as an error. dbMimeType is a platform type from Cursor.getString, so a NULL ContentTypes.value is a real way to reach that throw. typeAndCharset is exposed because ADFA-5176's interceptor needs the type and the charset apart for WebResourceResponse and was re-implementing the parse to get them -- with the naive substring match this file warns against. The class was created so both transports answer alike; keeping the parse private meant they agreed on the default and disagreed on reading what was already there. The "two thirds" statistic is replaced with a full census of the database it was measured on: 17,903 of 29,139 text rows, 61.4%. The review measured 22.5% against the bundled asset, which is an older export -- both numbers are right for their own database, so the KDoc now names which one and says the rate is per-generation. Four regression tests for the parsing cases, one for the textual types, one for typeAndCharset. The header assertion now prints the whole response when no Content-Type is found instead of throwing NoSuchElementException, and no longer declares a compression-dictionary version it does not use. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5176: Address the code review on the in-process transport Ten findings from the review on PR #1726. The three that could break something in production: * switchToDatabase bumped generation and closed the old handle but never cleared templateCache, so Pebble templates compiled from a closed database kept rendering. The old WebServer.switchToDatabase cleared it and the field comment still promised it. An edited template row in a swapped-in database would have rendered the previous database's markup for the rest of the session. * The brotli warm-up did not move with the decode. WebServer.decompressBrotli wrapped Brotli4jLoader.ensureAvailability() so a missing native library cost one failed read instead of the process; when the decode moved into DocumentationContentSource the guard stayed behind, and an UnsatisfiedLinkError is an Error, so it escapes every catch between there and the accept loop. Restored on the decode path, where the decode now is. * The interceptor's `shared` initializer called ensureAvailability() eagerly. That runs during Activity and Fragment construction, so a missing library was a hard crash on opening Help rather than a failed page. Removed: the source warms lazily and converts the Error, which covers both transports. mimeAndCharset now delegates to ContentTypeHeaders.typeAndCharset instead of re-parsing with substringAfter("charset="). The duplicate parse disagreed with the socket transport on quoted parameters and on case -- for `; Charset=UTF-8` it missed the parameter and the response went out with no encoding at all, which is the ADFA-5241 failure this class's KDoc claims to prevent. sendContent also builds its header before the status line, so a throw cannot append a second status line to a response that already claimed 200. Six unused imports left in WebServer.kt -- four of them the ADFA-5175 worker pool's -- would have failed spotlessCheck in CI under the file-level ratchet. HelpActivity loaded every page twice: once in onCreate and again through updateUIFromIntent. This PR's own device log proves it -- "2 requests, 231036 bytes" for one 115,518-byte page -- so every open paid two full reads, and the 142 ms figure quoted against the socket path's 99 ms was timing two loads against one. The instrumentation also used wall-clock time (an NTP correction mid-load reports nonsense) and presented process-cumulative counters as the page's own; it now uses elapsedRealtime and says "totals so far". The three ADFA-5220 version-gate tests deleted when WebServerTest was replaced are restored in DocumentationContentSourceTest, where dictionaryBytes now lives: below 2, no version table, and above 2, with the dictionary cursors stubbed as available in every case so they test the gate rather than a missing table. failedDebugSwapTimestamp is @volatile: the check reads it outside the write lock, so without it a second thread misses the first's failure marker and re-attempts openDatabase on a broken file while holding the lock -- and a 64-bit read is not atomic on armeabi-v7a. Three WebSettings property reads with no assignment were deleted rather than turned into `= true`. They are no-ops today; assigning them would silently enable three security-relevant settings, universal file access among them, as a side effect of a reindentation. If the fragment's file:///android_asset handling needs file access, that is its own change with its own reasoning. Also: comments describing a worker pool, awaitTermination and a templateCache this class no longer has, and ARCHITECTURE.md's raw-SQLite exception, which still named WebServer as the holder of the database handle. 363 tests across app and common pass; spotlessCheck is clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5176: Close the last three review findings on the two transports The three that needed a decision rather than a patch. **Cache staleness was judged before the swap it depends on.** serveRequest called discardCachesIfDatabaseChanged() first, but the source performs the debug-database swap inside lookup()/withDatabase(). On the request that swaps, the generation read was the pre-swap one, so bookshelfTemplateId still pointed at the previous database's template row -- rendering the old bookshelf, or 500ing when that id does not exist in the new database. The source now exposes refreshDatabase(), which applies a pending swap without reading, and the discard runs after it. Idempotent and throttled by the debug check interval, so the cost is one extra timestamp comparison. **Priming the dictionary could fail an unrelated lookup.** readContent primes it before reading the row, and dictionaryBytes deliberately lets unexpected failures propagate so a transient error is not cached as "no dictionary". On the lookup path that meant a locked database during one dictionary query failed *every* request, including rows with compression = 'none' that need no dictionary at all. The priming call is now best-effort: it logs, leaves the staleness flag set so the next read retries, and a brotli row that genuinely cannot resolve its dictionary still fails loudly from inside decompressBrotli. **The two transports disagreed about what a path is.** The interceptor matches WebResourceRequest.url.path, which is percent-decoded; WebServer matched the raw target. For any path the WebView encodes -- a space, a literal % -- the interceptor found the row and the server 404ed it, so setting the nointercept sentinel changed *which pages work*, defeating its purpose of comparing the two transports on equal terms. WebServer now decodes, with two details worth keeping: "+" is protected first, because URLDecoder alone turns it into a space and would break a stored path containing a literal plus (c++.html is a real shape here), and a malformed escape logs and falls back to the verbatim path rather than failing the request, so it 404s naturally. Three tests on the decoding -- encoded space, literal plus, malformed escape -- assert the path the server actually queries with, not just that a request succeeds. 366 tests across app and common pass; spotlessCheck is clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5241: Harden the Content-Type parameter parse against two malformed inputs Both from the re-review on #1725. An escaped quote no longer ends a quoted parameter value. RFC 9110's quoted-pair means \" does not close the string, but the parser toggled on every quote, so text/html; note="a\"; charset=iso-8859-1 parsed as two parameters and the charset inside note read as a declaration -- the same false match this class exists to prevent. An empty charset parameter is now left alone rather than contradicted. headerValue used to append a second charset, producing text/html; charset=; charset=utf-8. Recipients keep an empty valued parameter and ignore a repeated name, so that append claims a fix it does not make. A parameter with no = at all is still appended to, because that one really is dropped during parsing, so the appended charset takes effect. typeAndCharset keeps substituting the default either way -- it hands the charset back as its own value, where nothing can conflict with it. Both tests were confirmed to fail against the previous parser. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5176: Stop DocumentationContent pretending to have value semantics It was a data class whose equals/hashCode were overridden back to identity, because generated equality over a ByteArray compares identity anyway and comparing multi-megabyte content is not what any caller wants. What that left behind was copy(), which returned an object unequal to its source. Nothing here needs value semantics, so the class no longer offers them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5241: Say on charsetFor what it does with an unusable charset Its KDoc said null meant the type already carried a charset, without saying that an empty one counts -- which is the interesting case, and the reason typeAndCharset answers differently for the same input. Both now state the asymmetry and why it exists. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5241: Build the Content-Type instead of appending to what was stored Review of this PR found that appending a charset to the stored string leaves the header no better formed than the database happened to be -- and that on the row this change was written for, it does nothing at all. The database stores a bare "text" (one row, x.html) and a "text/text" (ten licence files). Neither is a media type -- type "/" subtype is required -- and a client that cannot parse the type discards the charset with it, so those rows went on being sniffed exactly as before. Both normalize to text/plain now. A stored value carrying a control character was written into the response verbatim by println(). ContentTypes.value comes from a database that a debug build swaps in from shared storage, so a planted value containing CR/LF would split one response into two. Such a value is refused rather than repaired: application/octet-stream renders nothing and injects nothing. charsetFor and typeAndCharset disagreed for "text/html; charset=" -- one appended nothing, the other substituted utf-8 -- so the two documentation transports declared different encodings for one stored value, which is the divergence this class exists to remove. Both take the same decision from the same call now, because headerValue rebuilds the header from the parsed parts: one normalized type, the other parameters as they were, exactly one charset. Rebuilding also makes "; charset" and "; charset=" replaceable rather than contradictable, so the malformed forms are no longer emitted at all. With rebuilding, the first *usable* charset became the right one to read rather than simply the first. While this appended, the first mattered, because that is the one a first-wins recipient keeps; now that exactly one is emitted, serving "charset=; charset=iso-8859-1" as utf-8 would garble a page that says plainly what it is. My own test caught that. Also from the review: handleClient's error path called sendError without outputStarted, so a failure while writing the body -- a dropped connection being the common one -- appended a second status line to a response that had already claimed 200. It reports whether the response had started now, as the other call sites in this file already do. The tests move to Truth, which ARCHITECTURE.md requires and this file was not using, and the comment volume comes down: the asymmetry was explained in four separate KDocs and no longer exists to explain. 341 tests pass across :common and :app. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5241: Refuse a control character anywhere in the value, not just the type The sanitising check covered only the segment before the first ';', so text/html; note=x<CR><LF>X-Injected: y passed it -- and the parameter loop then wrote that CR/LF into the response header. Same response splitting the check was added to stop, one segment further along, in the fix for it. The whole stored value is checked now, and a refused value emits nothing but application/octet-stream: its parameters are exactly where the control characters would have been. Test: 'a control character in a parameter is refused too', which fails against the type-only check. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ADFA-5176: Do not build the shared interceptor during Activity construction HelpActivity and IDETooltipWebViewFragment forced DocumentationRequestInterceptor.shared from a property initializer, so the whole lazy ran during construction, before onCreate, on the main thread. Two consequences. Environment.DOC_DB is a plain static File with no initializer, assigned only by Environment.init(). DeviceProtectedApplicationLoader wraps that call in runCatching and the credential-protected loader returns before it when storage is not ready, so null is a state the app can really be in -- and the non-null parameter turned it into an NPE that killed the activity before it existed. shared is nullable now and declines instead, which puts the request back on the local web server: the same thing a null from intercept() already means everywhere else. The lazy also stats external storage for the nointercept sentinel. On the main thread that is a disk read under a StrictMode policy built with detectAll(), and on a contended FUSE mount it stalls the frame that opens the screen. Touched from shouldInterceptRequest instead, on a WebView thread, the way FAQActivity already did it. Not covered here: intercept() still has no throw guard, so an Error (an OOM decoding a large row) escapes onto a Chromium thread rather than falling through to the server the way the class documents. That is a separate finding from the same review. Found in review of PR #1726. * ADFA-5176: Close the review findings on cache clearing and null handling - switchToDatabase clears templateCache with the swap, restoring what stage's WebServer.switchToDatabase did; the comments saying templates are dropped on swap are true again. - The cs0 clear-cache sentinel also clears the shared interceptor's source, not just the server's own. The interceptor's shared property is backed by an explicit Lazy so an interceptor that was never built is not created just to empty its cache. - realHandleBsEndpoint answers an empty bookshelf join with a 500: group_concat over an empty subquery yields one row whose value is NULL, which isCursorOneRow passes and the null then fell out of withDatabase as a zero-byte closed connection. - HelpActivity.onPageFinished no longer force-initializes the shared interceptor on the main thread: the lazy is explicit, and the load summary reads it only when shouldInterceptRequest already did. Regression tests: a swap re-renders templates from the new database (common), and /pr/bs over an empty join sends HTTP 500 (app). * ADFA-5176: Fix two comments the last refactors left behind - WebServer.serveRequest's caller talked about a read lock that no longer exists there; the swap now happens inside the content source. - The note explaining sendRawGetRequestAndAwaitClose sat above an unrelated test; move it to the helper it documents. * ADFA-5241: Close the response-splitting hole the charset parameter left open safeType refused a value carrying a control character, but the refusal was read back out of its return value -- OCTET_STREAM with no charset -- and a control character inside the charset parameter defeated that: declaredCharset re-parsed the original string, found a charset, so "refused" was never true, and headerValue appended the CRLF-bearing value verbatim. WebServer writes the result with println, so text/html; charset=x<CR><LF><CR><LF><script>alert(1)</script> split the reply into two HTTP responses with an attacker-chosen body -- the one thing this class exists to prevent. The two existing "refused, not repaired" tests put their control character in the type segment or a note= parameter, so neither could see it. Refusal is asked now, not inferred: one isUntrustworthy() consulted by both typeAndCharset and headerValue. That also stops a legitimately stored application/octet-stream; name=file.bin from being mistaken for a refusal and losing its parameters. The charset is the one value that skipped quoteIfNeeded, so a stored charset="utf-8; x=y" -- whose quotes parameters() strips -- came back out as a charset plus a smuggled second parameter. It goes through the same quoting as every other parameter value now. Four tests, three of which fail against the previous logic. 84 common tests pass. Found in review of PR #1725. * ADFA-5176: Retry a missing DOC_DB instead of caching the refusal forever Making `shared` nullable last round fixed the NPE and introduced a quieter bug: `lazy` memoizes whatever the initializer returned, including null. Environment.init() runs inside the loader coroutine -- DeviceProtectedApplicationLoader wraps it in runCatching, and the credential-protected loader returns early when storage is not ready -- so a WebView that asks during direct boot saw DOC_DB unset, and that answer was then cached for the life of the process. In-process documentation stayed off afterwards, and since WebServer is started only by MainActivity and stopped in its onDestroy, opening Help from the editor later had nothing to fall back to either. Only a successful construction is cached now; a null is retried on the next request. clearSharedTemplateCache reads the field directly, so asking whether the interceptor exists still cannot create it. intercept() also catches Throwable. The class documents that anything it returns null for falls through to the web server, and that only held for values: decoding the largest bundled row (8.8 MB over nine chunks) can raise OutOfMemoryError, a pathological template a StackOverflowError, and lookup()'s catch (e: Exception) sees neither. This runs on a Chromium thread, where an escaping Error takes the process down -- the socket transport confined the same failure to one 500. The file's own ensureBrotliAvailable KDoc describes exactly this hazard for the other transport. 102 common tests pass, :app compiles. Found in review of PR #1726. * ADFA-5176: Fix doc attributions and two debug logs from bot review docs/documentation-database.md still credited WebServer with the debug database swap, the lazy dictionary load, and opening the database; that logic now lives in DocumentationContentSource, and the call-site list has five entries, not three. Reworded the three statements to match the code. WebServer.kt bookshelf debug logs: SLF4J {} placeholders instead of string interpolation, and decode the JSON blob explicitly as UTF-8 rather than the platform default charset. * ADFA-5176: Align the empty-bookshelf test with the ADFA-5179 contract The merged ADFA-5179 rewrite made an empty bookshelf join a deliberate 200 with an empty shelf, so WebServerTest's old assertion of a 500 (from group_concat returning a NULL blob) is now wrong - and its stale stubs no longer even reach that path. The sibling BookshelfPayloadTest and BookshelfQueryTest pin readBookshelf/bookshelfJson directly but nothing covered the HTTP layer, where the blank-context render guard sits outside realHandleBsEndpoint's try/catch; so the test is rewritten, not deleted: it now drives /pr/bs over the socket with an empty join and a Pebble template that renders the shelf size, asserting HTTP/1.1 200 and that the empty-shelf payload reached the render. Also correct docs/documentation-database.md: the dictionary-first decode fallback and the multi-row chunk reassembly moved from WebServer into DocumentationContentSource. * ADFA-5176: Match documentation paths raw first, decoded on a miss Content.path rows in the shipped database are stored percent-encoded (pages reference their siblings with encoded targets), so decoding the request target before the lookup missed every such row. The interceptor read Uri.path (decoded) and this PR had aligned the server to it, leaving neither transport able to serve those rows. The lookup order now lives in DocumentationContentSource, shared by both transports: the raw target is queried verbatim first, and the percent-decoded form (with the existing '+' protection) is the fallback on a miss, so a database ingested with decoded paths keeps working. The interceptor passes Uri.encodedPath; the server passes the raw target and its corrupt-database message now quotes the path form that was actually queried. * ADFA-5176: Keep the shared documentation source honest across its lifecycle Four review findings on the in-process transport's state handling: - The installers rewrite Environment.DOC_DB in place, so the shared interceptor's cached handle outlived the bytes it was opened on. The refresh path now also stats the installed file and reopens through the same swap machinery (templates, dictionary and generation invalidate identically), rate-limited by the one existing gate. - close() only nulled the handle and openIfNeeded() silently reopened it. A closed flag makes close() terminal, and withDatabase() now surfaces could-not-open deliberately instead of via checkNotNull. - HelpActivity and IDETooltipWebviewFragment memoized the interceptor with `by lazy`, which caches the null that means DOC_DB is not set YET and pinned in-process serving off. Both now cache only a non-null; HelpActivity's main-thread log guard reads the companion's new isSharedInitialized instead of forcing construction. - Dead htmlContent local removed; timestampOf() narrowed to private and its KDoc link fixed. * ADFA-5176: Keep refreshDatabase() from reopening a closed source refreshDatabase() ignored openIfNeeded()'s verdict, so after close() a pending debug or installed-file swap still reached switchToDatabase() and reopened a handle nothing would ever close. Return early when the source cannot open, and check closed in switchToDatabase() as well: every caller holds the write lock, as does close(), so that check makes close() terminal even against a swap racing it. Regression tests cover both swap branches and fail without the fix. Also pass the exception itself, not e.message, to the decode-failure warning in decodeRequestPath(), so the stack trace is retained. * 📝 Add docstrings to `task/ADFA-5176-in-process-docs` Docstrings generation was requested by @davidschachterADFA.

WebServerwrote the stored MIME type intoContent-Typeverbatim, and noContentTypes.valueindocumentation.dbcarries a charset — so every text response left its encoding unstated. A client that doesn't assume UTF-8 falls back to a legacy single-byte encoding.Of 500 sampled
text/*rows, 328 (66%) contain non-ASCII bytes with no BOM. Observed on device while confirming ADFA-5239:a/android/R.id.htmlrenders   ↳android.R.idwhere the page says↳android.R.id. Screenshot is on ADFA-5239.Why this stayed hidden
Two things masked it. Those pages were being served as
text/plain(ADFA-5239), so they rendered as source rather than as documents — mojibake in escaped markup looks like nothing at all. And Android'sWebSettings.defaultTextEncodingNamedefaults to UTF-8, which likely spares the in-app viewer; nothing in the app sets that property, so it relies on the default.Neither is a reason to leave the header unstated:
WebServer.kt:1176,:1225,:1247,:1310all send; charset=utf-8). Only database-sourced content was missing it.text/*toutf-8inDocumentationRequestInterceptor.mimeAndCharset.Where the decision lives
common/ContentTypeHeaders, notWebServer— because of that last point. Two transports giving different answers about what a response says is worse than either answer, so the predicate is in one place for ADFA-5176 to adopt on its rebase.What gets a charset: every text subtype, including the database's malformed bare
text(which 726TooltipButtonsreach viax.html) andtext/text; XML-based types, since SVG usually omits its own declaration and a transport charset takes precedence anyway. Notapplication/json— RFC 8259 defines no charset parameter for it and fixes the encoding as UTF-8, so declaring one says nothing. There's a test asserting that, so nobody "fixes" it later. An already-declared charset is never doubled.Deliberately not fixed in the database
Putting the parameter in
ContentTypes.valuewould work for both readers — but that column doubles as a lookup key matched exactly byExtensionToContentTypeResolver(the plugin installer would skip every HTML asset), bydocdb-studio's anchor extraction, and by threeOfflineDocumentationToolsscripts. Two of those fail silently. Full analysis on ADFA-5241.Tests
7 for the helper — text types, the two malformed ones, XML, the whole binary set, the JSON exclusion, no doubling, and casing/parameter tolerance — plus one that opens a socket against a running server and asserts the literal
Content-Type:line for a text row and a binary row. The helper being right doesn't prove the response is.Verified on hardware
Built, installed on an SM-N986U and checked against the live server. Headers, same session:
Text and XML-based types declare the encoding, binary types are untouched, and the malformed bare
textgets one too — which is the intent.Rendering confirmed as well:
a/android/R.id.htmlnow shows↳ android.R.idwhere it showed   ↳android.R.idan hour earlier, and the signature block sets in proper monospace, since the broken bytes had been disrupting the page's inlined CSS and not only its text. Before/after screenshots are on ADFA-5241 and ADFA-5239.No UI change, so no font-scale check applies.
