Summary

  • Fail closed on OBC/bucket wipe when any object still has Object Lock protection (legal hold or active retention).
  • Fence writes by marking the bucket deleting before the lock check; roll back that fence if protected objects are found.
  • Independently refuse unordered reclaim deletion of locked objects so Object Lock cannot be bypassed.

Test plan

  • Unit tests: npx jest src/test/unit_tests/internal/test_delete_bucket_object_lock.test.js --forceExit
  • Delete OBC/bucket with no locked objects → succeeds
  • Delete OBC/bucket with retention or legal hold → fails with clear Object Lock error; bucket not left Terminating
  • After unlock / retention expiry, retry delete → succeeds

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved protection for objects covered by legal holds or retention policies.
    • Prevented bucket and object deletion when protected objects are present.
    • Preserved bucket state and retry behavior when deletion is blocked.
    • Improved error reporting for unauthorized deletion attempts.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for protected and unprotected object deletion, bucket rollback, and WORM scenarios.

Fail closed on OBC/bucket wipe: fence writes by marking the bucket
deleting, reject delete if any object still has legal hold or active
retention, and independently refuse unordered reclaim deletion of
locked objects. Roll back the deleting fence when the lock check fails.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Object Lock checks now protect unordered object deletion and bucket deletion. Bucket deletion fences writes before checking locks and restores state only when the deletion fence matches. Tests cover protected and unprotected paths.

Changes

Object Lock deletion protection

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lock detection and unordered deletion
src/server/object_services/md_store.js, src/server/object_services/object_server.js
MDStore.has_any_locked_objects_in_bucket detects active legal holds and future retention. Unordered deletion rejects protected batches with UNAUTHORIZED.
Bucket deletion fencing and rollback
src/server/system_services/bucket_server.js
Bucket deletion preserves the original name, marks the bucket as deleting, checks for protected objects, and restores state only when the deletion fence matches.
Cleanup handling and validation
src/server/bg_services/buckets_reclaimer.js, src/test/unit_tests/internal/test_delete_bucket_object_lock.test.js, src/test/integration_tests/api/s3/test_s3_worm.js
Reclaimer documentation describes retry handling. Unit and integration tests cover rejection, rollback, successful deletion, and deletion fencing.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 6a47e

The change blocks deletion of buckets containing Object Lock-protected objects, but the integration tests can leave locked buckets allocated because cleanup failures are ignored and fixture names are fixed, causing subsequent runs to fail before assertions. The PR is otherwise mergeable with owner follow-up to isolate fixtures and make cleanup failures visible.

We mark the bucket deleting first so new uploads are blocked (load_bucket fails).
Then we check for locked objects.
If any are still locked, we undo the deleting mark and restore the name so the bucket is not left Terminating — user unlocks/waits and retries.
Checking only before marking would leave a race where a locked object can be uploaded between the check and the wipe.

1061-1074: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Use a unique deletion generation for the delete fence.

new Date() is not unique per delete attempt. If two requests use the same millisecond value, they set the same deleting value and name suffix. The rollback at Lines 1087-1090 can then clear the newer request's fence. Store and match a unique deletion token instead of the timestamp alone.

This remains the concurrent rollback concern from the prior review. As per coding guidelines, review **/*.{js,ts,tsx} code for async race conditions.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Make Object Lock validation and soft deletion atomic.

The batch check at Line 1325 can pass before another operation adds a legal hold or retention. remove_objects_and_unset_latest() then deletes the selected object IDs without a lock predicate. Keep the Object Lock predicate in the destructive update or use a transaction that validates and deletes the same locked records. Add an interleaving regression test.

This remains the TOCTOU issue from the prior review. As per coding guidelines, review **/*.{js,ts,tsx} code for async race conditions.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Use unique fixture names and do not hide locked-bucket leaks.

The compliance-retained object cannot be deleted until tomorrow. The legal hold also remains enabled. The teardown ignores both deletion failures.

These fixed bucket names remain allocated after this suite. A later run can fail at createBucket() before it reaches the assertions. Generate a per-run bucket-name suffix. Clear the legal hold before teardown. Report any retained bucket that requires deferred cleanup.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Test deletion retry after removing the legal hold.

This test verifies the rejection and name rollback. It does not verify the required retry path. After the failed deletion, set the legal hold to OFF, call delete_bucket_and_objects() again, and assert that read_bucket() returns NO_SUCH_BUCKET.
