Webhook signature verification for Fygaro

fygaro-webhook

Webhook signature verification for Fygaro — pure Python stdlib, zero runtime deps

This helper validates the Fygaro-Signature header of incoming webhooks. It supports secret rotation (multiple active secrets), deterministic unit‑testing, and is ready for future hash algorithms.

---

Installation

pip install fygaro-webhook

Requires Python ≥ 3.8.

---

Quick start

from fygaro.webhook import FygaroWebhookValidator

validator = FygaroWebhookValidator(
    secrets=[
        "my-primary-secret",  # str or bytes
        # "my-previous-secret",   # include during rotation windows
    ],
    # max_age=300,          # optional (default = 5 min)
)

if not validator.verify_signature(
    signature_header=request.headers["Fygaro-Signature"],
    body=request.body,  # raw bytes exactly as sent
):
    raise ValueError("Invalid signature")

# …process JSON, return 200…

API reference

class FygaroWebhookValidator

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
secrets	Sequence[str | bytes]	✔	—	One or more active webhook secrets. Provide all currently valid secrets during a rotation window. Each secret can be a UTF‑8 str or raw bytes.
max_age	int	✖	300	Maximum allowable clock skew (in seconds) between the timestamp in the header and the server time. A low value mitigates replay attacks
unsafe_skip_ts_validation	bool	✖	False	Test only. When True, the timestamp‑freshness check is skipped and a RuntimeWarning is emitted on instantiation. Never enable in production.

---

validator.verify_signature(signature_header: str, body: bytes) -> bool

Argument	Type	Description
signature_header	str	The exact value of the incoming Fygaro‑Signature HTTP header.
body	bytes	The unmodified request body (raw bytes). Do not .decode() or re‑serialize.

Return value:

• True — signature is valid and timestamp is within max_age (unless skipped).
• False — signature mismatch, stale timestamp, or malformed header.

---

Writing deterministic unit tests

To keep fixtures stable you can bypass the timestamp‑freshness check without touching production code:

validator = FygaroWebhookValidator(
    secrets=[b"test-secret"],
    unsafe_skip_ts_validation=True,  # ← test‑only flag
)

The first instance created with unsafe_skip_ts_validation=True emits a RuntimeWarning to remind you that this path is unsafe for live traffic.

Changelog – @fygaro/webhook

[1.1.0] – 2025-07-10

Added

• unsafe_skip_ts_validation constructor flag that bypasses the timestamp-freshness check. Meant only for local/unit tests; not safe for production. Emits a RuntimeWarning the first time an instance is created with the flag enabled, to minimise accidental misuse.

[1.0.0] – 2025-06-19

Added

• Initial release with FygaroWebhookValidator class.
• Supports multiple secrets & multiple v1= hashes.
• Constant-time compare and configurable timestamp window.
