Summary

Capture the siwe-nonce header (which will be passed via the WebView component on native) from the req object and make available to SIWE component in landing via SIWENonceContext.Provider.


Depends on D5975

Test Plan

Able to retrieve value in SIWE as expected:

You should handle this like line 174, where we declare a var that is passed down

Then in landing/root.js, have a declare var, and then render a SIWENonceContext.Provider around Landing

fix SSR when siweNonce header missing (we want siweNonce to be null not empty string)

keyserver/src/responders/landing-handler.js
175 ↗(On Diff #19979)

Considered using nullish coalescing operator (??) but decided against. If I understand properly this line doesn't go through any sort of transpiler so there might be browser compatibility issues?

Also tried nested string interpolation but wasn't able to get it to work.

Open to any suggestions here.

Please address comment before landing

Yeah def don't use nullish coalescing here, but there are better options. You can JSON.stringify it, although then maybe there would be some sneaky attack if somebody set the siwe-nonce header in some special way (Node always returns a string, right?)

If that doesn't work you can just define const siweNonceString = siweNonce ?? "null"; on line 171

Given we'll need to support this on web as well I wonder if a header will be harder in that context than a query param

Although reading through D5978 it seems like web and mobile will need to be fairly different anyways

Encounter the following using JSON.stringify when siweNonce is null (when we navigate to the page directly in desktop browser):

Similarly we can't define const siweNonceString = siweNonce ?? "null";

I think what we'd need to do is

const siweNonceString = `"${siweNonce}"` ?? "null";

Where if siweNonce is null then the string gets computed as "" (empty string) which is falsey so we end up with "null" which ends up as null once in the html` string. (The way I thought about it is when we include siweNonceString in html` string the outer quote effectively gets "dropped")

Disregard everything past this... it's incorrect.

What we'd really have is "" (two double quotes) NOT an empty string.

More verbose but I think the cleanest option here is:

const siweNonceString = siweNonce ? `"${siweNonce}"` : "null";

I don't think there's a way to do this with nullish coalescing even "from the outside"

Yeah this is correct.

Yeah I think things will be pretty different

This seems dangerous... you're letting somebody inject JavaScript into the site with a header. Eg. what if `siweNonce was set to something like:

const siweNonce = '" : null; do something bad code; const otherVar = true ? "';

Can you create a task to address?

I'm not fully understanding the scenario where code can be injected

I believe the double quotes around ${siweNonce} ensure that siweNonceString is a "quoted data value."
