4. Asset integrity check

Date: 2020-02-23

Status

Proposed

Context

In HTML5, link and script nodes have an attribute named integrity, which lets the browser check if the remote file is valid, mostly for the purpose of enhancing page security.

Decision

In order to replicate browsers' behavior, the program should perform integrity check the same way browsers do, excluding the linked asset from the final result if such check fails.

The integrity attribute should be removed from nodes, as it bears no benefit for resources embedded as data URLs.

Consequences

Assets that fail to pass the check get excluded from the saved document.

Saved documents no longer contain integrity attributes on all link and script nodes.
