- Fix Flask debug mode: Use environment variable FLASK_DEBUG instead of hardcoded debug=True to prevent running in debug mode in production - Fix unsafe HTML construction in JavaScript client library: - Replace innerHTML with safe DOM API methods (createElement, textContent) - Add sanitizeUrl helper to prevent javascript:/data: protocol XSS attacks - Build SVG elements using createElementNS for safer rendering - Add explicit permissions to GitHub Actions workflows: - test.yml: contents: read - security.yml: contents: read (workflow-level), issues: write (security-summary job) - build.yml: contents: read - rsr-compliance.yml: contents: read - ci.yml: contents: read - docs.yml: contents: write, pages: write, id-token: write (for gh-deploy) These changes follow the principle of least privilege and address all CodeQL security warnings for Flask debug mode, unsafe HTML construction, and missing workflow permissions.
