描述

> Note: This issue documents a vulnerability that was originally reported privately as the repository security advisory [GHSA-535m-2x67-prhm](https://github.com/Dstack-TEE/dstack/security/advisories/GHSA-535m-2x67-prhm) by @pbeza.

## Root Cause

[`fs::write()`][app-keys-write] is used with default permissions (`0o644`) to write `AppKeys` to the filesystem. The `AppKeys` structure contains `disk_crypt_key`, `env_crypt_key`, and `k256_key` — all highly sensitive cryptographic secrets. Similarly, decrypted environment variables are written to files with default world-readable permissions.

```rust
// Default fs::write() creates files with 0o644 permissions
fs::write(&app_keys_path, serde_json::to_string(&app_keys)?)?;
```

## Attack Path

1. Any process inside the CVM can read `/path/to/app-keys.json`
2. Attacker compromises any container workload (web vulnerability, dependency exploit, etc.)
3. Compromised process reads `app-keys.json` with `disk_crypt_key`, `env_crypt_key`, `k256_key`
4. Attacker can decrypt the disk, decrypt environment variables, and use the k256 signing key

## Impact

Any compromised process inside the CVM can read all application cryptographic keys and decrypted environment variables. This includes the disk encryption key (enables offline disk reading), the env encryption key (decrypts all environment secrets), and the k256 key (enables signing as the CVM).

## Suggested Fix

Set restrictive permissions before writing:

```rust
use std::os::unix::fs::OpenOptionsExt;

let mut file = std::fs::OpenOptions::new()
.write(true)
.create(true)
.truncate(true)
.mode(0o600)
.open(&app_keys_path)?;
file.write_all(serde_json::to_string(&app_keys)?.as_bytes())?;
```

Consider further restricting to `0o400` (read-only by owner) after the initial write.
