/** * Phase 2 adversarial — string-based input attacks. Verifies that user- * supplied text is treated as data, not code, everywhere it surfaces in * the UI. * * Strategy: feed each attack payload through the public API at the * earliest entry point that accepts free-form text (display name, caption, * comment), then render the same data back through the UI and assert that: * 1. The server stores the input verbatim (no over-eager rejection that * would impede legitimate names like "O'Brien" or "T-Rex"). * 2. The DOM never produces an executable script element / a dialog event * / a navigation to a `javascript:` URL. */ import { test, expect } from '../../fixtures/test'; const BASE = process.env.E2E_FRONTEND_URL ??
