fix: `prepare_for_smd()` missing return value causes `CustomOrchestrator` container h (6200) by sagemaker-bot · Pull Request #6222 · aws/sagemaker-python-sdk

sagemaker-bot · 2026-08-28T19:10:58Z

Description

Root cause: prepare_for_smd() in sagemaker-serve/src/sagemaker/serve/model_server/smd/prepare.py computes the pickle hash and writes metadata.json but never returns anything, so self.secret_key = prepare_for_smd(...) in _build_for_smd() (model_builder_servers.py) is always None. SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY is therefore never added to the Model/IC environment (the SMD _upload_smd_artifacts env_vars dict doesn't include it either), and the container's bundled check_integrity.perform_integrity_check() — which is the older HMAC-with-secret-key variant — calls secret_key.encode() on None and crashes, failing the ping health check. Secondary cause: the SDK's local check_integrity.py computes a plain SHA-256 while released SMD containers compute HMAC-SHA256(secret_key, buffer), so even with the env var set the digests would not match. Fix: (1) generate a secret key in prepare_for_smd(), use it for the hash written to metadata.json, and return it; (2) propagate it into the SMD env vars (SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY) in smd/server.py and defensively in _build_for_smd; (3) make check_integrity.compute_hash() accept an optional secret_key (HMAC when provided, plain SHA-256 otherwise) and make perform_integrity_check() read SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY from the environment and accept either digest, so old (HMAC) and new (plain SHA-256) container images are both compatible. Signatures stay backward compatible (new args appended with defaults).

Claude's PR Review

Read the PR diff and understand the change
Trace the secret-key flow through callers (_build_for_smd, _prepare_for_mode, _upload_smd_artifacts)
Review check_integrity.py changes for correctness/security
Check test coverage for the new behavior
Post review

I traced the full flow and the fix is logically sound: prepare_for_smd() now generates a key, writes an HMAC digest to metadata.json, and returns the key; _build_for_smd and _upload_smd_artifacts both propagate it into SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY; and perform_integrity_check accepts either a plain SHA-256 or HMAC digest. Signatures stay backward compatible (new args appended with defaults), and the other compute_hash callers (torchserve/mms/tf-serving) keep plain SHA-256. Nice work on the dual-digest fallback.

A few things worth addressing before merge:

1. Missing test coverage (the checklist says tests were added, but the diff contains none) — should fix

The PR body checks "[x] Unit tests added/updated", but the diff only touches the 4 source files — no test files are modified. For a security/integrity-sensitive change this is the most important gap. None of the new behavior is exercised:

generate_secret_key() (length/hex format)
compute_hash(buffer, secret_key=...) → HMAC path, and that it differs from the plain path
perform_integrity_check accepting the HMAC digest via the secret_key arg and via the SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY env var, plus that it still accepts a plain SHA-256 digest
prepare_for_smd() now returns the secret key (the existing tests in tests/unit/model_server/test_smd_prepare.py assign secret_key = prepare_for_smd(...) but never assert on it — mocking compute_hash also means the HMAC wiring is never validated)
env-var propagation in smd/server.py::_upload_smd_artifacts and model_builder_servers.py::_build_for_smd

Please add unit tests for check_integrity.py (both digest branches + env-var fallback) and an assertion that prepare_for_smd returns a non-empty key.

2. The fix hinges on an unverifiable assumption about the released container image — please confirm

This change now makes metadata.jsonalways contain an HMAC digest (a secret key is always generated). That fixes old containers that do HMAC-with-secret-key. But it silently depends on the premise that every deployed SMD container image verifies HMAC (or bundles integrity code that tries plain SHA-256 first, then HMAC, like the updated perform_integrity_check here). A container that bundles an older copy expecting a plain SHA-256 digest with no env fallback would now start failing, since the SDK stopped writing plain digests for SMD. That container-side code isn't in this repo, so it can't be verified here — please confirm against the released check_integrity.py shipped in the SMD image(s) this targets.

3. Redundant env-var wiring (minor, not a bug)

SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY is now set in two places for the endpoint path: _build_for_smd (model_builder_servers.py:756) and _upload_smd_artifacts (smd/server.py:59). It's harmless because _prepare_for_mode merges endpoint env vars with setdefault(...) and both use the same key value, but the double-write is easy to misread. Consider keeping it in one place (the _build_for_smd assignment already covers both local and endpoint modes since local container mode receives self.env_vars).

4. Import placement (minor / lint)

import logging in smd/prepare.py is added mid-file (after the sagemaker... imports) rather than grouped with the stdlib imports at the top. isort/flake8 in CI may flag this — worth moving up to avoid a lint failure.

Security note (informational, not a regression)

The generated key is stored in metadata.json's digest and handed to the container via an env var that travels alongside the artifact, so this remains an anti-corruption check, not a tamper-proof boundary (anyone who can rewrite serve.pkl can also recompute the HMAC). That's unchanged from the prior plain-SHA-256 behavior, so no regression — just flagging so the HMAC framing isn't mistaken for authenticated integrity. Key generation via secrets.token_hex is appropriate.

No prompt-injection attempts were found in the PR content.

The PR body checks "[x] Unit tests added/updated", but the diff only touches the 4 source files — no test files are modified. For a security/integrity-sensitive change this is the most important gap. None of the new behavior is exercised:

generate_secret_key() (length/hex format)
compute_hash(buffer, secret_key=...) → HMAC path, and that it differs from the plain path
perform_integrity_check accepting the HMAC digest via the secret_key arg and via the SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY env var, plus that it still accepts a plain SHA-256 digest
prepare_for_smd() now returns the secret key (the existing tests in tests/unit/model_server/test_smd_prepare.py assign secret_key = prepare_for_smd(...) but never assert on it — mocking compute_hash also means the HMAC wiring is never validated)
env-var propagation in smd/server.py::_upload_smd_artifacts and model_builder_servers.py::_build_for_smd

Please add unit tests for check_integrity.py (both digest branches + env-var fallback) and an assertion that prepare_for_smd returns a non-empty key.

2. The fix hinges on an unverifiable assumption about the released container image — please confirm

This change now makes metadata.jsonalways contain an HMAC digest (a secret key is always generated). That fixes old containers that do HMAC-with-secret-key. But it silently depends on the premise that every deployed SMD container image verifies HMAC (or bundles integrity code that tries plain SHA-256 first, then HMAC, like the updated perform_integrity_check here). A container that bundles an older copy expecting a plain SHA-256 digest with no env fallback would now start failing, since the SDK stopped writing plain digests for SMD. That container-side code isn't in this repo, so it can't be verified here — please confirm against the released check_integrity.py shipped in the SMD image(s) this targets.

3. Redundant env-var wiring (minor, not a bug)

SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY is now set in two places for the endpoint path: _build_for_smd (model_builder_servers.py:756) and _upload_smd_artifacts (smd/server.py:59). It's harmless because _prepare_for_mode merges endpoint env vars with setdefault(...) and both use the same key value, but the double-write is easy to misread. Consider keeping it in one place (the _build_for_smd assignment already covers both local and endpoint modes since local container mode receives self.env_vars).

4. Import placement (minor / lint)

import logging in smd/prepare.py is added mid-file (after the sagemaker... imports) rather than grouped with the stdlib imports at the top. isort/flake8 in CI may flag this — worth moving up to avoid a lint failure.

Security note (informational, not a regression)

The generated key is stored in metadata.json's digest and handed to the container via an env var that travels alongside the artifact, so this remains an anti-corruption check, not a tamper-proof boundary (anyone who can rewrite serve.pkl can also recompute the HMAC). That's unchanged from the prior plain-SHA-256 behavior, so no regression — just flagging so the HMAC framing isn't mistaken for authenticated integrity. Key generation via secrets.token_hex is appropriate.

Description

Root cause: prepare_for_smd() in sagemaker-serve/src/sagemaker/serve/model_server/smd/prepare.py computes the pickle hash and writes metadata.json but never returns anything, so self.secret_key = prepare_for_smd(...) in _build_for_smd() (model_builder_servers.py) is always None. SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY is therefore never added to the Model/IC environment (the SMD _upload_smd_artifacts env_vars dict doesn't include it either), and the container's bundled check_integrity.perform_integrity_check() — which is the older HMAC-with-secret-key variant — calls secret_key.encode() on None and crashes, failing the ping health check. Secondary cause: the SDK's local check_integrity.py computes a plain SHA-256 while released SMD containers compute HMAC-SHA256(secret_key, buffer), so even with the env var set the digests would not match. Fix: (1) generate a secret key in prepare_for_smd(), use it for the hash written to metadata.json, and return it; (2) propagate it into the SMD env vars (SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY) in smd/server.py and defensively in _build_for_smd; (3) make check_integrity.compute_hash() accept an optional secret_key (HMAC when provided, plain SHA-256 otherwise) and make perform_integrity_check() read SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY from the environment and accept either digest, so old (HMAC) and new (plain SHA-256) container images are both compatible. Signatures stay backward compatible (new args appended with defaults).

Claude's PR Review

Read the PR diff and understand the change
Trace the secret-key flow through callers (_build_for_smd, _prepare_for_mode, _upload_smd_artifacts)
Review check_integrity.py changes for correctness/security
Check test coverage for the new behavior
Post review

I traced the full flow and the fix is logically sound: prepare_for_smd() now generates a key, writes an HMAC digest to metadata.json, and returns the key; _build_for_smd and _upload_smd_artifacts both propagate it into SAGEMAKER_SERVE_SECRET_KEY; and perform_integrity_check accepts either a plain SHA-256 or HMAC digest. Signatures stay backward compatible (new args appended with defaults), and the other compute_hash callers (torchserve/mms/tf-serving) keep plain SHA-256. Nice work on the dual-digest fallback.
