conduit-hyper

This crate integrates a hyper 0.14 server with a conduit 0.10 application stack.

Usage

This crate is in maintenance mode, intended only for use within the crates.io codebase. If you wish to use this crate please reach out to us in the issue-tracker.

While some protection against large requests is provided, this server should not be exposed directly to the public internet. It is highly recommended that the server be used behind a production-grade reverse-proxy for such applications.

Potential security vulnerabilities should be reported per our security policy.

Error and Panic Handling

If the application handler returns an Err(_) the server will log the description via the tracing crate and then return a generic 500 status response.

If the handler panics, the default panic handler prints a message to stderr and the connnection is closed without sending a response. In the future, these panics will likely be turned into a generic 500 status response.

Request Processing

If the request includes a body, the entire body is buffered before the handler is dispatched on a thread. There is currently no restriction on the maximum body size so a client can consume large amounts of memory by sending a large body. Therefore it is recommended to use a reverse proxy which limits the maximum body size.

Header values that are not valid UTF-8 are replaced with an empty string.

conduit::Request

The following methods on the Request provided to the application have noteworthy behavior:

  • scheme always returns Http as https is not currently directly supported
  • host returns an empty string if the Host header is not valid UTF-8

All other methods on Request should behave as expected.

TODO

  • Include the X-Request-Id header when logging an error
