Client-side web security (XSS/DOM XSS, CSP, CSRF, clickjacking, XS-Leaks, third-party JS).

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

rule_id: codeguard-0-client-side-web-security

## Client‑side Web Security

Protect browser clients against code injection, request forgery, UI redress, cross‑site leaks, and unsafe third‑party scripts with layered, context‑aware controls.

### XSS Prevention (Context‑Aware)
- HTML context: prefer `textContent`. If HTML is required, sanitize with a vetted library (e.g., DOMPurify) and strict allow‑lists.
- Attribute context: always quote attributes and encode values.
- JavaScript context: do not build JS from untrusted strings; avoid inline event handlers; use `addEventListener`.
- URL context: validate protocol/domain and encode; block `javascript:` and data URLs where inappropriate.
- Redirects/forwards: never use user input directly for destinations; use server-side mapping (ID→URL) or validate against trusted domain allowlists.
- CSS context: allow‑list values; never inject raw style text from users.

Example sanitization:
```javascript
const clean = DOMPurify.sanitize(userHtml, {
  ALLOWED_TAGS: ['b','i','p','a','ul','li'],
  ALLOWED_ATTR: ['href','target','rel'],
  ALLOW_DATA_ATTR: false
});
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add santosomar/ai-agents-for-cybersecurity/.cursor/rules/codeguard-0-client-side-web-security.mdc@sha256:fb93599380401911

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.5.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
