- 9 new CTE tests covering simple, recursive, and edge cases

- **EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN Support**
- Full support for SQLite's `EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN` via Ecto's `Repo.explain/2` and `Repo.explain/3`
- **Query detection**: Rust NIF `should_use_query()` now detects EXPLAIN statements for proper query/execute routing
- **Ecto.Multi compatibility**: `explain_query/4` callback returns `{:ok, maps}` tuple format required by Ecto.Multi
- **Output format**: Returns list of maps with `id`, `parent`, `notused`, and `detail` keys matching SQLite's output
- **Usage examples**:
```elixir
# Basic EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN
{:ok, plan} = Repo.explain(:all, from(u in User, where: u.active == true))
# Returns: [%{"id" => 2, "parent" => 0, "notused" => 0, "detail" => "SCAN users"}]

# With options
{:ok, plan} = Repo.explain(:all, query, analyze: true)

# Direct SQL execution
{:ok, _, result, _state} = EctoLibSql.handle_execute(
"EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?",
[1],
[],
state
)
```
- **Implementation**: Query detection in `utils.rs:should_use_query()`, SQL generation in `connection.ex:explain_query/4`
- **Test coverage**: 12 tests across `explain_simple_test.exs` and `explain_query_test.exs`

## Vulnerability Mitigation

### CVE-2025-47736: libsql-sqlite3-parser UTF-8 Crash

**Status:** MITIGATED
**Severity:** Low
**Affected Component:** `libsql-sqlite3-parser` ≤ 0.13.0 (transitive dependency via `libsql`)

#### Vulnerability Description

The `libsql-sqlite3-parser` crate through version 0.13.0 can crash when processing invalid UTF-8 input in SQL queries. This vulnerability is documented in [CVE-2025-47736](https://advisories.gitlab.com/pkg/cargo/libsql-sqlite3-parser/CVE-2025-47736/).

#### Our Mitigation Strategy

**ecto_libsql is NOT vulnerable** to this CVE due to multiple layers of defence:

##### 1. **Type System Protection (Primary Defence)**
- All SQL strings in our Rust NIF code use Rust's `&str` type
- Rust's type system guarantees that `&str` contains valid UTF-8
- Any attempt to create invalid UTF-8 in Rust would fail at compile time

##### 2. **Rustler Validation (Secondary Defence)**
- Rustler (our NIF bridge) validates UTF-8 when converting Elixir binaries to Rust strings
- Invalid UTF-8 from Elixir would cause NIF conversion errors before reaching our code
- These errors are caught and returned to Elixir as error tuples

##### 3. **Explicit Validation (Defence-in-Depth)**
- We've added explicit UTF-8 validation at all SQL entry points:
- `prepare_statement/2` in `statement.rs`
- `declare_cursor/3` in `cursor.rs`
- `execute_batch_native/3` in `batch.rs`
- This validation provides:
- Explicit documentation of security guarantees
- Additional safety layer against future changes
- Clear audit trail for security reviews

#### Implementation Details

The `validate_utf8_sql/1` function in `native/ecto_libsql/src/utils.rs` (lines 13-60) performs the validation:

```rust
pub fn validate_utf8_sql(sql: &str) -> Result<(), rustler::Error> {
// Validates UTF-8 boundaries and character indices
// Returns descriptive errors for any invalid sequences
}
```

This validation is called at the start of every NIF function that accepts SQL, before the SQL reaches `libsql-sqlite3-parser`.

#### Why This Vulnerability Doesn't Affect Us

Even without our explicit validation (layer 3), the vulnerability cannot be triggered because:

1. **Elixir strings are UTF-8:** Elixir enforces UTF-8 for all string literals and string operations
2. **Rustler enforces UTF-8:** Converting from Elixir to Rust `&str` validates UTF-8
3. **Type safety:** Rust's `&str` cannot contain invalid UTF-8 by definition

The explicit validation we've added serves as **defence-in-depth** and **documentation** of our security posture.

#### Upstream Fix Status

The vulnerability is fixed in commit `14f422a` of `libsql-sqlite3-parser`, but this fix has not been released to crates.io yet. Once a new version is published, we will:

1. Update our `libsql` dependency (which will pull in the fixed parser)
2. Continue to maintain our explicit validation as defence-in-depth
3. Update this document with the new version information

#### Testing

Our test suite includes UTF-8 validation coverage:
- All named parameter tests exercise the validation code paths
- Invalid UTF-8 would be caught by Rustler before reaching our code
- Our validation function is called on every SQL query

#### Reporting Security Issues

If you discover a security vulnerability in ecto_libsql, please email the maintainers directly rather than opening a public issue. See our [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for contact information.

## Security Best Practices

When using ecto_libsql in your applications:

1. **Use parameterised queries:** Always use Ecto's parameter binding (`?` or `:param`) instead of string interpolation
2. **Validate input:** Validate user input at application boundaries before passing to database queries
3. **Keep dependencies updated:** Regularly update ecto_libsql and Ecto to get security fixes
4. **Use encryption:** Enable encryption for sensitive data using the `:encryption_key` option
5. **Secure credentials:** Store Turso auth tokens in environment variables, not in source code

## Dependency Security

We use the following tools to monitor dependency security:

- **Dependabot:** Automated vulnerability scanning on GitHub
- **cargo audit:** Rust dependency vulnerability checking
- **mix audit:** Elixir dependency vulnerability checking

Run security audits locally:

```bash
# Rust dependencies
cd native/ecto_libsql && cargo audit

# Elixir dependencies (requires mix_audit)
mix deps.audit
```

## Changelog

- **2026-01-07:** Added explicit UTF-8 validation as defence against CVE-2025-47736
- **2025-12-30:** v0.5.0 - Eliminated all `.unwrap()` calls in production code (CVE-prevention)

# SELECT ':not_a_param', name FROM users WHERE id = :actual_param
#
# Would extract both "not_a_param" and "actual_param", even though the first
# appears in a string literal. This is an edge case that would require a full
# SQL parser to handle correctly (tracking quoted strings, escaped characters,
# and comment blocks). In practice, this limitation rarely causes issues because:
# 1. SQL string literals containing parameter-like patterns are uncommon
# 2. The validation will catch truly missing parameters
# 3. Extra entries in the parameter list are ignored during binding
#
# If this becomes problematic, consider using a proper SQL parser or the
# prepared statement introspection approach used in lib/ecto_libsql/native.ex.
