feat(web-component): add SRI support for web-component-ui loader RELEASE

[omercnet]

Summary

Implements client-side Subresource Integrity (SRI) support for the web-component-ui script loader. When the backend includes a componentsVersionSri hash in config.json, the web component automatically adds integrity and crossorigin attributes to the injected <script> tag, enabling the browser to verify the script has not been tampered with.

Zero breaking changes — if no SRI hash is present in config, the component loads normally as before.

Changes

Source

• configMixin/types.ts: Added optional componentsVersionSri?: string to ProjectConfiguration type
• injectNpmLibMixin/helpers.ts:
  • setupScript() now accepts optional integrity param; sets crossOrigin = "anonymous" when present
  • handleExistingScript() rejects with an error on integrity mismatch (tamper detection)
  • generateLibUrls() accepts optional integrity and propagates it to all CDN fallback URLs
  • Exported ScriptData type (includes optional integrity field)
• injectNpmLibMixin/injectNpmLibMixin.ts: Added integrity param to injectNpmLib(); logs when SRI is active
• descopeUiMixin/descopeUiMixin.ts: Added #getComponentsVersionSri() to read hash from config; passes it to injectNpmLib()

Tests

• packages/sdks/web-component/test/descope-wc.sri.test.ts: 6 integration tests (with/without SRI, different hash algorithms, CDN fallbacks, backward compat)
• packages/libs/sdk-mixins/test/injectNpmLibMixin.sri.test.ts: 6 unit tests for generateLibUrls SRI behavior and ScriptData type

Docs

• packages/sdks/web-component/README.md: Added Security Features section (SRI usage, CSP compatibility, example output)

Example output

With SRI (automatic when hash is in config):

<script
  src="https://descopecdn.com/npm/@descope/web-components-ui@1.0.0/dist/umd/index.js"
  integrity="sha384-oqVuAfXRKap7fdgcCY5uykM6+R9GqQ8K..."
  crossorigin="anonymous"
></script>

Without SRI (backward compatible):

<script
  src="https://descopecdn.com/npm/@descope/web-components-ui@1.0.0/dist/umd/index.js"
></script>

Test plan

• sdk-mixins test suite passes (32 tests)
• web-component SRI test suite passes (6 tests)
• No regressions in existing descopeUiMixin and staticResourcesMixin tests
• Verify end-to-end once backend deploys componentsVersionSri in config — injected script tag should include integrity and crossorigin attributes

Pull request overview

This PR implements client-side Subresource Integrity (SRI) support for the web-component-ui loader in descope-js. The implementation automatically applies cryptographic integrity verification to dynamically loaded scripts when SRI hashes are provided in the project configuration, enhancing security by protecting against tampered CDN resources.

Changes:

• Added optional componentsVersionSRI field to project configuration types for backward compatibility
• Modified script injection infrastructure to support integrity attributes and automatic crossorigin="anonymous" when SRI is enabled
• Updated Descope UI mixin to retrieve and pass SRI hashes from configuration to the script injection mechanism
• Added comprehensive test suites covering SRI functionality, backward compatibility, and edge cases
• Enhanced documentation with security features section explaining SRI usage and CSP compatibility

✅ Review Complete - All Threads Addressed

I've reviewed and addressed all 6 review threads from @copilot-pull-request-reviewer:

🔧 Fixes Implemented

Thread 1: Missing Test Utilities ✅ RESOLVED

• Updated test file to use existing setupWebComponentTestEnv and teardownWebComponentTestEnv pattern
• Matches existing test structure (e.g., descope-wc.descopeUI.test.ts)

Thread 2: Nonce Attribute for Script Tags ✅ RESOLVED

• Added window.DESCOPE_NONCE check to setupScript()
• Script tags now apply nonce attribute when available
• Matches pattern used for style elements in codebase

Thread 3: Incorrect eslint-disable Comment ✅ RESOLVED

• Removed eslint-disable-next-line class-methods-use-this from #getComponentsVersionSRI()
• Method correctly uses this.config and this.logger

Thread 4: Misleading Test Name ✅ RESOLVED

• Updated test name: "should not include integrity when empty string is provided"
• Fixed assertion to expect toBeUndefined() instead of toBe('')

Thread 5: Empty String Handling ✅ RESOLVED

• Modified generateLibUrls() to only include integrity field when truthy
• Empty strings now treated same as undefined - field not set

Thread 6: Integrity Verification for Script Reuse ✅ RESOLVED (Security Critical)

• Added integrity verification in handleExistingScript()
• Rejects with error if existing script's integrity doesn't match expected value
• Prevents security issue where scripts loaded without SRI could be reused

Who sets this DESCOPE_NONCE? is it documented?

Why not to set enabled by default?
