# TradingController Security Enhancement ## Overview The `InitPrivyWallet` endpoint in `TradingController` has been enhanced with admin role security. This ensures that only authorized users can initialize wallet addresses. ## Security Rules ### For Regular Users - Can **only** initialize wallet addresses that they own - The system verifies ownership by checking if the provided public address exists in one of the user's accounts - If a user tries to initialize an address they don't own, they receive a `403 Forbidden` response ### For Admin Users - Can initialize **any** wallet address in the system - Admin status is determined by the `AdminUsers` environment variable - All admin actions are logged for audit purposes ## Implementation Details ### Authentication Flow 1. **User Authentication**: Endpoint requires valid JWT token 2. **Admin Check**: System checks if user is in the admin list via `IAdminConfigurationService` 3. **Ownership Verification**: For non-admin users, verifies address ownership via `IAccountService.GetAccountByKey()` 4. **Action Logging**: All operations are logged with user context ### Security Validation ```csharp private async Task CanUserInitializeAddress(string userName, string publicAddress) { // Admin users can initialize any address if (_adminService.IsUserAdmin(userName)) { return true; } // Regular users can only initialize their own addresses var account = await _accountService.GetAccountByKey(publicAddress, true, false); return account?.User?.Name == userName; } ``` ## Error Responses ### 401 Unauthorized - Missing or invalid JWT token - User not found in system ### 403 Forbidden - Non-admin user trying to initialize address they don't own - Message: "You don't have permission to initialize this wallet address. You can only initialize your own wallet addresses." ### 400 Bad Request - Empty or null public address provided ### 500 Internal Server Error - System error during wallet initialization - Database connectivity issues - External service failures ## Admin Configuration Set admin users via environment variable: ```bash AdminUsers=admin1,admin2,superuser ``` ## Audit Logging All operations are logged with appropriate context: **Admin Operations:** ``` Admin user {UserName} initializing address {Address} ``` **User Operations:** ``` User {UserName} initializing their own address {Address} ``` **Security Violations:** ``` User {UserName} attempted to initialize address {Address} that doesn't belong to them ``` ## Usage Examples ### Regular User - Own Address ```bash POST /Trading/InitPrivyWallet Authorization: Bearer {user-jwt-token} Content-Type: application/json "0x1234567890123456789012345678901234567890" ``` **Result**: ✅ Success (if address belongs to user) ### Regular User - Other's Address ```bash POST /Trading/InitPrivyWallet Authorization: Bearer {user-jwt-token} Content-Type: application/json "0xabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcd" ``` **Result**: ❌ 403 Forbidden ### Admin User - Any Address ```bash POST /Trading/InitPrivyWallet Authorization: Bearer {admin-jwt-token} Content-Type: application/json "0xabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcdefabcd" ``` **Result**: ✅ Success (admin can initialize any address) ## Security Benefits 1. **Prevents Unauthorized Access**: Users cannot initialize wallets they don't own 2. **Admin Oversight**: Admins can manage any wallet for system administration 3. **Audit Trail**: All actions are logged for compliance and security monitoring 4. **Clear Authorization**: Explicit permission checks with meaningful error messages 5. **Secure Configuration**: Admin privileges configured via environment variables, not API calls
