SWWAF_WAF_BODY_LIMIT (default off, at most 1G) has the Core Rule Set read
form data and multipart up to the limit, the rest streaming on, and JSON
and XML (with +json, text/json and +xml) no larger than it. The part read
is held for the app. A size or time limit met while reading ends the
request. Content-Encoding is refused again on these kinds. A body Coraza
cannot parse, or a multipart body failing its strict checks, adds 5, but
not a multipart body reaching the limit. Coraza is built with
no_fs_access, so writes no file. Rule 900300 moves to phase 2.
Judgement call: Content-Encoding is refused on a JSON or XML body too
large to read, as SPEC.md allows.
Model: opus-5-5
Milestone 1, the repo's first code. smallwebwaf passes each request to the app and the answer back unchanged, streaming bodies and WebSocket upgrades, within four timeouts (client and app, request and response) and two size limits, and writes one JSON line per request to stdout. Every setting has an SWWAF_ name and a default, and an invalid value stops the start. The repo gets the standard layout: script/ entrypoints, make targets that call them, a Dockerfile that runs the checks, and the Gitea workflow.
Disclosure: SPEC.md changed. Go's server reads the request line and headers before smallwebwaf sees the request, so slow headers are closed without an answer, and neither slow nor oversized headers get a log line.
Disclosure: standard library only.
