Summary

Resolves every advisory from the dependency scan. npm audit goes from 8 high to 0 vulnerabilities.

The scan CSV also listed vitest, vite, esbuild, and extra brace-expansion versions — those are not in this repo's lockfile (leftover from a state that had test tooling), so there was nothing to patch for them. Everything actually present is now on a fixed version.

What changed

Framework bump (clears the next + nested-postcss advisories)

  • next 14.2.3515.5.23. The 14.2 line is frozen at 14.2.35 (npm's next-14 dist-tag hasn't moved; no security backports), so a major bump was the only path. Chose 15.5.23 over 16.x deliberately:
    • It clears every next advisory in the scan (the highest listed fixed_version is 15.5.21).
    • Stays on the more mature 15 line rather than bleeding-edge 16.
    • Keeps React 18 — Next 15 still accepts react ^18.2.0, so no forced React 19 migration.
    • Directly fixes GHSA-ffhc-5mcf-pf4q (XSS in App Router apps using CSP nonces) — relevant here because middleware.ts issues CSP nonces.
  • eslint-config-next 14.2.3515.5.23 to match (clears the glob CLI command-injection advisory it pulled in).

Direct dependency

  • postcss 8.4.398.5.26 — path traversal / arbitrary .map disclosure via sourceMappingURL, XSS via unescaped </style>.

Transitive pins (overrides)

No fixed release was reachable through the normal tree, so these are pinned explicitly:

Package Pinned to Advisory
brace-expansion 1.1.18 ReDoS + unbounded-expansion OOM DoS
nanoid 3.3.18 infinite loop on zero/negative size
js-yaml 4.3.1 quadratic-CPU DoS (merge keys / !!omap)
postcss 8.5.26 also forces Next's nested copy
sharp 0.35.3 libvips CVEs — sharp is Next's optional image dep, unused here (no next/image)

Code change required by Next 15

  • app/layout.tsx: headers() is now async — added await. This was the only dynamic-API change needed; a repo-wide scan found no other use of headers()/cookies()/searchParams.

Docs

  • README: two Next.js 14 references → 15.

Verification

All run locally against the production build:

  • npm audit0 vulnerabilities
  • tsc --noEmit clean
  • next lint clean
  • next build clean (all 13 routes)
  • ✅ Runtime smoke test:
    • CSP nonce attached to 20/20 rendered <script> tags (header nonce matches)
    • Misconfig Mapper → 200 (score 55 on example.com)
    • CORS Tester → 200 (correctly classifies example.com as no-CORS)
    • TLS / Cert Viewer → 200 (github.com, chain of 3, authorized)
    • SSRF guard still blocks 169.254.169.254

Risk / rollout notes

  • Not a npm audit fix --force — that would have pulled next@16.3.1 + a React 19 requirement and broken the build. This is a targeted, tested upgrade.
  • No runtime behaviour change expected: React stays 18, we don't use next/image (so the sharp override is inert), and force-dynamic routes are unaffected by Next 15's fetch-caching default change.
  • Next 15 prints a one-time nudge to migrate next lint → ESLint CLI. Non-blocking; lint still runs and passes. Can be addressed in a follow-up.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The project upgrades Next.js and related tooling, updates asynchronous nonce handling in RootLayout, documents Next.js 15, adds Vitest, and extends CI with test execution, manual triggering, and Node.js 20.19.

Changes

Next.js 15 and CI updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dependency and runtime update
package.json, app/layout.tsx
Next.js and related packages are upgraded. Package overrides and the Node.js minimum version are updated. RootLayout awaits headers() before reading x-nonce.
CI test workflow
.github/workflows/ci.yml, package.json
The project adds a Vitest-based test script. CI runs the test suite, supports manual workflow dispatch, and uses Node.js 20.19.
Next.js documentation
README.md
Deployment instructions and the technology stack list Next.js 15.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to c7c3c

The PR updates vulnerable dependencies and makes the localized Next.js 15 API adjustment while preserving the existing React 18 setup; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review.

Rebased onto main after PRs #2 (security hardening + Vitest test suite)
and #3 (UI accessibility) merged. Extends the dependency fix to cover the
test tooling those PRs introduced. `npm audit` reports 0 vulnerabilities.

Framework:
  - next 14.2.35 → 15.5.23 (14.2 line is frozen; clears every next
    advisory, keeps React 18, fixes the CSP-nonce XSS GHSA-ffhc-5mcf-pf4q
    that's relevant to middleware.ts)
  - eslint-config-next 14.2.35 → 15.5.23

Test tooling (added on main by PR #2):
  - vitest 2.1.9 → 3.2.7 — clears the critical GHSA-5xrq-8626-4rwp and
    pulls patched vite (6.x) + esbuild (>=0.25), resolving those advisories.
    All 39 tests pass on the new runner.

Direct + transitive:
  - postcss 8.4.39 → 8.5.26 (path traversal / XSS)
  - overrides: brace-expansion 1.1.18, nanoid 3.3.18, js-yaml 4.3.1,
    postcss 8.5.26 (forces next's nested copy), sharp 0.35.3 (libvips
    CVEs; sharp is next's optional, unused image dep)

Code / config:
  - app/layout.tsx: headers() is async in Next 15 — await it
  - engines.node >=20.0.0 → >=20.9.0 (Next 15 + sharp 0.35 floor)
  - ci.yml: add workflow_dispatch trigger
  - README: Next.js 14 → 15

Verified: npm audit 0, tsc clean, 39/39 vitest tests, next lint clean,
production build clean.

Keep Vitest out of production dependencies.

The new test script and supplied test imports are the shown consumers of vitest. Move vitest to devDependencies unless production deployment intentionally runs tests.

Comment thread package.json
Addresses CodeRabbit review: `node-version: 20` could resolve to a
cached 20.x below the engines floor (>=20.9.0) since check-latest was
off. Pin to 20.19 and enable check-latest so CI always runs a Node
that satisfies the declared minimum (and sharp's ^20.3 requirement).

Note: the review's other comment (move vitest to devDependencies) was a
false positive — vitest is already a devDependency.
