December 2025: Delivered security hardening, authentication/config improvements, and reliability enhancements across three NAVIKT repositories. Key outcomes include patching a critical React/React-DOM vulnerability in the EF Sak frontend with a Node version shim to standardize developer environments, implementing OAuth2 config and claims management in EF Iverksett to simplify Azure user substitutions and align pre-prod/production claims, and enabling Swagger UI client-id integration for streamlined API exploration. A set of security and observability improvements were completed in EF Iverksett, including null-claims checks to prevent 500 errors, protected controllers with correct application expectations, and test validations for timeout calls, along with a shift away from manual logging toward standard logging. The EF Soknad frontend received a security-focused dependency upgrade (React 19.2.3) to address known vulnerabilities. These changes reduce CVE exposure, improve pre-prod readiness, and strengthen code quality and maintainability through refactoring and linting practices.
