653-655: Enhance message structure for better maintainabilityConsider using a more structured message format with type and payload fields for better maintainability and future extensibility.
Apply this improvement:
window.parent.postMessage( { - message: "help-video-link", + type: "HELP_VIDEO", + payload: { + action: "OPEN", + videoType: "help" + } }, "*" );
651-651: Consider centralizing feature flag managementThe direct usage of environment variables for feature flags could be improved by centralizing the configuration management.
Consider creating a dedicated configuration module:
// config/features.js export const FEATURES = { HELP_VIDEO: process.env.REACT_APP_SHOW_HELP_VIDEO === "true", // Add other feature flags here };Then use it in your component:
- if (process.env.REACT_APP_SHOW_HELP_VIDEO === "true") { + if (FEATURES.HELP_VIDEO) {

Add origin verification to postMessage for security
The current implementation of postMessage lacks origin verification, which could lead to security vulnerabilities. Always specify the target origin when using cross-origin communication.
Apply this fix:
if (process.env.REACT_APP_SHOW_HELP_VIDEO === "true") {
window.parent.postMessage(
{
message: "help-video-link",
},
- "*"
+ process.env.REACT_APP_PARENT_ORIGIN || window.location.origin
);
}Also, ensure to add REACT_APP_PARENT_ORIGIN to your environment variables.

💡 Codebase verification
🛠️ Refactor suggestion
Security vulnerability: Multiple instances of unrestricted postMessage usage found
The verification revealed several security issues in the codebase:
src/components/DiscoverSentance/DiscoverSentance.jsx:104-110: Unrestricted postMessage with wildcard originsrc/components/Assesment/Assesment.jsx:352: Unrestricted postMessage with wildcard originsrc/views/Practice/Practice.jsx:125-131: Unrestricted postMessage with wildcard originsrc/views/Practice/Practice.jsx:763: Unrestricted postMessage with wildcard origin
The original review comment's security concerns are valid and even more critical now, as we've found multiple instances of unsafe cross-origin communication using wildcard origins ("*"). All these locations need the same origin verification pattern proposed in the review.
🔗 Analysis chain
Enhance security and error handling in cross-origin communication
The implementation has good security measures but could be strengthened further:
- Origin verification could be more robust
- Error handling could be more specific
- Environment variables should be validated at startup
Apply these improvements:
const handleOpenVideo = () => {
if (process.env.REACT_APP_SHOW_HELP_VIDEO === "true") {
let allowedOrigins = [];
try {
allowedOrigins = JSON.parse(
process.env.REACT_APP_PARENT_ORIGIN_URL || "[]"
);
+ if (!Array.isArray(allowedOrigins)) {
+ throw new Error('REACT_APP_PARENT_ORIGIN_URL must be a JSON array');
+ }
} catch (error) {
console.error(
"Invalid JSON format in REACT_APP_PARENT_ORIGIN_URL:",
error
);
+ return;
}
const parentOrigin =
window?.location?.ancestorOrigins?.[0] || window.parent.location.origin;
+
+ // Validate origin format
+ try {
+ new URL(parentOrigin);
+ } catch {
+ console.error(`Invalid parent origin format: ${parentOrigin}`);
+ return;
+ }
if (allowedOrigins.includes(parentOrigin)) {
try {
window.parent.postMessage(
{
message: "help-video-link",
+ timestamp: Date.now(), // Add timestamp for message validation
},
parentOrigin
);
} catch (error) {
- console.error("Error sending postMessage:", error);
+ console.error("Failed to send postMessage:", {
+ error: error.message,
+ parentOrigin,
+ timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
+ });
}
} else {
- console.warn(`Parent origin "${parentOrigin}" is not allowed.`);
+ console.error(`Security violation: Unauthorized parent origin "${parentOrigin}"`);
}
}
};Consider implementing these additional security measures:
- Add message versioning for better compatibility
- Implement a message acknowledgment mechanism
- Add rate limiting for postMessage calls
🏁 Scripts executed
The following scripts were executed for the analysis:
Script:
#!/bin/bash
# Verify if there are any other postMessage calls without origin verification
ast-grep --pattern 'window.parent.postMessage($$$, "*")'
# Check for potential security issues in postMessage usage
rg -n "postMessage.*\*" --type js
