🚨 Severity: HIGH
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: The model loading logic used .ends_with to validate model file extensions, which could be bypassed via a null byte (e.g., model.bin\0.gguf). When passed to underlying C APIs (like llama.cpp), this would truncate the path to model.bin, allowing arbitrary file loading.
🎯 Impact: An attacker could potentially load unauthorized files or probe for file existence on the server by bypassing the file extension allowlist.
πŸ”§ Fix: Added an explicit check to reject any model_path containing a null byte (\0) in validate_model_request.
βœ… Verification: Run cargo test -p bitnet-server test_model_path_null_byte_rejected to verify the newly added unit test passes successfully.

The model loading logic used `.ends_with` to validate model file extensions,
which could be bypassed via a null byte (e.g., `model.bin\0.gguf`). When passed
to underlying C APIs (like `llama.cpp`), this would truncate the path to `model.bin`,
allowing arbitrary file loading. Added an explicit check to reject any `model_path`
containing a null byte (`\0`).

πŸ‘‹ Jules, reporting for duty! I'm here to lend a hand with this pull request.
