Description
This PR adds logic to the
/api/proxyendpoint which ensures we only serve valid JSON or YAML.Motivation and Context
This important because we could otherwise risk serving HTML which may contain malicious JavaScript (XSS).
The file's text is parsed using the
yamllibrary. If it is parsed correctly we return the file's text. If not we return an error.We can parse both JSON and YAML it using the
yamllibrary because JSON is a subset of YAML.Types of changes
