Pull request overview
This PR addresses a high-severity JavaScript injection risk in the app’s ShiftScreen WebView OCR bridge by changing how image payload data is passed into injectJavaScript, and records the security learning in the Jules sentinel log.
Changes:
- Replaces unsafe string interpolation (and manual quote escaping) with
JSON.stringify(...)-based string literal injection when callingwindow.runTesseract(...)from React Native. - Updates
package-lock.jsondependency resolutions (includingreact-native-webview,@react-native-picker/picker,pdfjs-dist) and addsexpo-secure-storeto the lockfile. - Adds a
.jules/sentinel.mdentry documenting the vulnerability pattern and recommended prevention.

🚨 Severity: HIGH
💡 Vulnerability: Unsafe string interpolation and manual quote replacement was used to pass user-controlled JSON data into a WebView via
injectJavaScript(window.runTesseract('${base64Json}')).🎯 Impact: If
base64Jsoncontained an unescaped single quote or malicious executable character, it could break out of the string literal context and lead to unauthorized execution of JavaScript within the WebView's context (XSS / JS Injection).🔧 Fix: Replaced manual escaping (
replace(/'/g, "\\'")) and string template literal injection with properJSON.stringify()evaluation inside the template string to guarantee that the payload safely interpolates as a string literal.✅ Verification: Verified that changes compile correctly (
npm run typecheck) and the application test suite executes without failures. Reviewed and confirmed the logic accurately passes JSON representations safely as intended. Created.jules/sentinel.mdentry.PR created automatically by Jules for task 12134014644047521669 started by @TargetMisser
