React 18 Security Modeling

Summary

Model and mitigate security risks that arise from advanced rendering and hydration flows.

Key Capabilities

• Identify XSS risks in streaming SSR and hydration.
• Validate safe handling of HTML and serialized data.
• Apply content security policies aligned with React 18 behavior.

PhD-Level Challenges

• Formalize a threat model for concurrent rendering flows.
• Prove safety of serialization/deserialization pipelines.
• Evaluate CSP trade-offs for streaming responses.

Acceptance Criteria

• Provide a React-specific threat model document.
• Demonstrate mitigation of a simulated injection attack.
• Document CSP configuration and impact analysis.
