jcoffey-dev b7f99b49f2 Take grpc to 1.83.2 across the nine modules that carry it
GHSA-2v4p-qf9q-27wj is a panic in gRPC-Go's xDS routing interceptor: a
request arriving with neither `:authority` nor `Host` indexes an empty
slice, the per-RPC goroutine does not recover, and the process dies.
High, and nine alerts, because nine go.mod files pin the same version --
eight directly, terraform indirectly.

Nothing here was reachable. The interceptor is installed by
`xds.NewGRPCServer`, which this repo never calls: the one production
server is `grpc.NewServer(grpc.Creds(...))` in ingest/internal/grpcserver
and the only other is a plain one in a searchclient test. That is also
why security-scan has been green throughout -- govulncheck reports on
reachability and found nothing on 1.83.1, while Dependabot reports on
version ranges and found nine. Both were right.

Taken anyway: it is a patch release, and the next advisory in this
dependency may well land somewhere we do reach.

`go mod tidy` carried the indirect requirements grpc 1.83.2 asks for --
x/net, x/text, x/sys and friends. No CI job builds or tests Go here, so
all nine modules were built locally and api, ingest and enterprise
tested with -count=1, since a cached pass would not have exercised the
new version.

The dependabot.yml is the other half. There was no config, so nothing
opened a PR against any of this. Go majors stay out of the group, being
import path changes rather than bumps.

hack

Local developer tooling that isn't part of any shipped component — scripts you run against your own machine/dev stack, not code that ends up in a container image (except dev-certs' output, which mounts into the ingest container).

Not one of the top-level directories in the original monorepo scaffold — added because dev-only mTLS cert generation didn't have a natural home in /deploy (real deployment manifests), /transport, or any other existing component. /hack is the conventional name for this in a lot of larger Go monorepos (Kubernetes among them).

  • dev-certs/ — generates a throwaway CA + server/client cert pair for local mTLS between the agent and ingest. See /docs/phase-0-runbook.md for when to run it.
  • windows-fixture/ — sends synthetic Windows Event Log-shaped records directly to ingest, bypassing the real Windows agent. Tests whether the pipeline handles Windows-shaped data; doesn't test the real EvtSubscribe/ETW integration, which needs actual Windows. See /docs/phase-1-runbook.md.
  • demo-simulator/ — the public demo's synthetic world: a fictional fleet whose agents check in, report CPU/memory/disk, and ship realistically shaped logs for eight services. Backfills a window of history, then keeps generating in real time. Distinct from benchmark-fixture/ (volume, for the Phase 2 latency benchmark) and windows-fixture/ (correctness, for the Windows ingest path).
  • check-web-routes.sh — asserts web/nginx.conf's hand-maintained route allowlists still match web/src/routes. nginx.conf 404s unknown paths, so it has to name the routes that have no prerendered file to match (dynamic ones, and any route without prerender = true). Drift here breaks production only — dev and npm run preview never read nginx.conf — so this runs in CI, like check-tenant-boundary.sh.
  • demo-seed/ — the rest of the demo deployment: its reset script, dashboards, alert rules, and the systemd unit that runs demo-simulator.
