🔍 Code Review Summary

❗ Attention Required: This push has potential issues. 🚨

Overview

• Total Feedbacks: 3 (Critical: 3, Refinements: 0)
• Files Affected: 2
• Code Quality: [█████████████████░░░] 85% (Good)

🚨 Critical Issues

performance (3 issues)

1. Synchronous file system operations may block the event loop.

---

📁 File: extensions/vscode/src/apiRequest/apiRequestProvider.ts
🔍 Reasoning:
Using synchronous file operations (e.g., fs.readFileSync) can lead to performance bottlenecks, especially if the file size is large or the operation is frequent.

💡 Solution:
Use asynchronous file operations to improve performance and responsiveness.

Current Code:

const packedData = fs.readFileSync(filePath);

Suggested Code:

const packedData = await fs.promises.readFile(filePath);

2. Potential exposure of sensitive data in logs.

---

📁 File: extensions/vscode/src/apiRequest/apiRequestProvider.ts
🔍 Reasoning:
Logging error messages that may contain sensitive information can lead to security vulnerabilities.

💡 Solution:
Sanitize error messages before logging them to avoid exposing sensitive data.

Current Code:

console.error(`Error reading or decoding the file: ${error.message}`);

Suggested Code:

console.error(`Error reading or decoding the file.`); // Avoid logging sensitive error details

3. Potential XSS vulnerability in response rendering.

---

📁 File: extensions/vscode/webview/apiRequest/index.html
🔍 Reasoning:
Directly injecting user-generated content into the DOM without sanitization can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

💡 Solution:
Ensure that any user-generated content is properly sanitized before rendering.

Current Code:

document.getElementById('response').innerHTML = `<pre class="json-formatter">${formattedBody}</pre>`;

Suggested Code:

                document.getElementById('response').textContent = formattedBody;
