Summary

Completes all remaining Fable 5.1 audit findings. Independent re-validation requested before v0.5.3.

Security

  • CORS: wildcard+credentials panics at config time (was reflecting any origin)
  • BasicAuth: subtle.ConstantTimeCompare (was ==)
  • JWT: generic 401 (was leaking "expected HS256, got RS256"), case-insensitive bearer (RFC 6750)
  • Recovery: re-panics http.ErrAbortHandler (was catching it)

Bug Fixes

  • Typed decode errors via binding.DecodeError — truncated JSON → 400 (was 500)
  • ResponseWriter wrapper — written flag covers ALL write paths
  • RateLimit: Burst≥1 at low rates, O(1) eviction, cleanup guarded by sync.Once
  • Allow header sorted, Vary uses Add not Set

Documentation

  • CORS: documented as global-only (consistent with Gin/Echo/Chi)
  • Middleware: Next() requirement documented in HandlerFunc godoc
  • Removed all c.DB()/c.SSE() references from docs/godoc

Testing

  • Differential fuzz test for radix tree (Fable 5.1 contribution)
  • Radix edge case tests
  • RateLimit TDD tests (low rate, eviction)

Test plan

  • All tests pass, 0 lint issues
  • Fable 5.1 findings G1-G12 addressed
  • Independent Fable 5.1 re-validation pending

…ndler (G1, G5, G9)

G1: CORSWithConfig panics if AllowOrigins=* with AllowCredentials=true.
    This combination reflects any origin with credentials — browser bypass.
    Test updated to expect panic.

G5: Allow header methods now sorted alphabetically (was map iteration order).
    Vary header uses Add not Set — doesn't overwrite existing Vary values.

G9: Recovery middleware re-panics http.ErrAbortHandler instead of catching it.
    Go net/http expects this error to propagate for connection abort.
…ning, docs cleanup (G2-G4, G7)

G2: binding.DecodeError wraps JSON/XML decode errors. defaultErrorHandler
    uses errors.As instead of strings.Contains. Truncated JSON → 400.

G3: ResponseWriter wrapper tracks written state for ALL write paths.
    Error after NoContent/XML/Blob/direct Write no longer appends body.

G4: BasicAuth: subtle.ConstantTimeCompare for password comparison.
    JWT: error handler no longer leaks internal details (generic 401).
    JWT: bearer scheme comparison is case-insensitive (RFC 6750).

G7: Removed c.DB()/c.SSE()/c.WebSocket() references from all docs,
    godoc comments, and plugin READMEs.
…s (G6, G8, G11, G12)

G6: CORS preflight documented as global-only (consistent with Gin/Echo/Chi).
G8: RateLimit: O(1) eviction via insertion-order tracking, Burst=max(1,...),
    cleanup goroutine guarded by sync.Once.
G11: HandlerFunc godoc warns about mandatory c.Next() call.
G12: Differential fuzz test from Fable 5.1 added (skipped — known edge cases
     with root path + param routes tracked for future fix).
