Description

This PR fixes filename extraction across download and deploy to properly strip query parameters (?token=...), URL fragments (#...), and decode percent-encoded characters:

  1. get_filename_from_url Helper: Added helper in databusclient/api/utils.py using urllib.parse.urlparse and posixpath.basename(unquote(...)) with a safe fallback to downloaded_file.
  2. Download Submodule: Replaced naive file = url.split("/")[-1] in _download_file with get_filename_from_url(url), preventing Windows path crashes (OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument) and enabling proper compression/format extension detection.
  3. Deploy Submodule: Updated _get_extensions to clean distribution URLs before inferring format and compression extensions.
  4. URI Parts Extraction: Updated get_databus_id_parts_from_file_url to strip query strings and fragments from Databus URIs.
  5. Unit Tests: Added test suite in tests/test_download.py and tests/test_deploy.py covering query parameters, fragments, embedded slashes, percent encoding, and decompression.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The client adds shared URL filename parsing. Downloads and extension detection now ignore query strings and fragments. The helper also decodes percent-encoded names and provides a fallback filename. Tests cover these cases and decompression.

Changes

URL filename normalization

Layer / File(s) Summary
URL parsing utilities
databusclient/api/utils.py
Adds get_filename_from_url, which parses and decodes URL basenames and falls back to downloaded_file. Databus file URL parsing now removes query strings and fragments.
Download and extension integration
databusclient/api/deploy.py, databusclient/api/download.py, tests/test_deploy.py, tests/test_download.py
Download naming and extension parsing use the shared helper. Tests cover query parameters, fragments, encoded filenames, fallback names, and decompression.

A crafted download URL can overwrite writable files outside the chosen directory on Windows, so filename validation should be fixed before merge.

Path Traversal

Reachability: External
Exploitability: Moderate
CWE: CWE-22 — Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Block decoded path separators before returning the filename.

unquote(clean_path) converts %5C to \ before posixpath.basename runs. For example, https://example.org/%2E%2E%5Coutside.ttl returns ..\outside.ttl. _download_file then joins this value to localDir and writes the response. On Windows, this escapes the selected download directory and can overwrite a writable file outside it.

Take the encoded basename first. Then decode it and reject decoded /, \, ., and .. values before it reaches the filesystem.

Proposed fix
-    basename = posixpath.basename(unquote(clean_path))
-    return basename or "downloaded_file"
+    basename = unquote(posixpath.basename(clean_path))
+    if (
+        not basename
+        or basename in {".", ".."}
+        or "/" in basename
+        or "\\" in basename
+    ):
+        return "downloaded_file"
+    return basename
