Storage REST request bodies and Grid RPC frames bypass the HTTP validity middleware, allowing wire-supplied paths and malformed FileInfo values to reach xlStorage unchecked.
Wrap the remotely exposed StorageAPI with a guard that covers every path-bearing method, including nested metadata fields. Reject traversal and destructive volume-root aliases before path cleaning can erase them, and validate erasure geometry and part sizes at the same wire boundary. Keep a raw-volume check in getVolDir for peer-S3 calls that bypass the wrapper.
Reflection, fuzz, traversal, peer-S3, compatibility, and malformed-erasure tests pin the complete method surface and prove that legal object names remain accepted.
