/** * Comprehensive Security Tests for ElementInstaller Download-Then-Validate Vulnerability Fix * * These tests verify that the critical security vulnerability where malicious content * could persist on disk when validation failed has been completely fixed. * * TEST APPROACH: * 1. Validate that malicious content NEVER persists on disk when validation fails * 2. Test cleanup on validation failures across all error scenarios * 3. Test atomic operations to prevent partial writes * 4. Test directory traversal prevention before any disk operations * 5. Test various attack vectors (command injection, path traversal, YAML injection, etc.) * 6. Test edge cases like network failures, disk full, permission errors * 7. Verify valid content still installs correctly (regression prevention) */ import { jest } from '@jest/globals'; import * as path from 'path'; import * as os from 'os'; import { ElementInstaller } from '../../../src/collection/ElementInstaller.js';
