Breaking: #96221 - Deny inline JavaScript in FormEngine's requireJsModules

See forge#96221

Description

Custom FormEngine components allowed to load RequireJS modules with arbitrary inline JavaScript to initialize those modules. In favor of introducing content security policy headers, the amount of inline JavaScript shall be reduced and replaced by corresponding declarations.

Using callback functions as inline JavaScript is not possible anymore, initializations have to be declared using an instance of TYPO3\CMS\Core\Page\JavaScriptModuleInstruction.

Impact

Using inline JavaScript to initialize RequireJS modules in FormEngine, like shown in the the example below, will throw a corresponding \LogicException.

$resultArray['requireJsModules'][] = ['TYPO3/CMS/Backend/FormEngine/Element/InputDateTimeElement' => '
    // inline JavaScript code to initialize `InputDateTimeElement`
    function(InputDateTimeElement) {
        new InputDateTimeElement(' . GeneralUtility::quoteJSvalue($fieldId) . ');
    }'
];

Affected Installations

All instances that are using RequireJS modules with custom initializations as inline JavaScript in FormEngine.

Migration

Previous deprecation ChangeLog documentation provided migration details already.

The following snippet shows the migrated source code of shown above - using TYPO3\CMS\Core\Page\JavaScriptModuleInstruction instead of inline JavaScript.

// use use TYPO3\CMS\Core\Page\JavaScriptModuleInstruction;
$resultArray['requireJsModules'][] = JavaScriptModuleInstruction::forRequireJS(
    'TYPO3/CMS/Backend/FormEngine/Element/InputDateTimeElement'
)->instance($fieldId);

JavaScriptModuleInstruction forwards arguments as JSON data - and thus handles proper context-aware encoding implicitly (GeneralUtility::quoteJSvalue and similar custom encoding can be omitted in this case).
