This serves to add support for [Subresource
Integrity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity)
hashes for scripts added from the new app directory. This also has
support for utilizing nonce values passed from request headers (expected
to be generated per request in middleware) in the bootstrapping scripts
via the `Content-Security-Policy` header as such:

```
Content-Security-Policy: script-src 'nonce-2726c7f26c'
```

Which results in the inline scripts having a new `nonce` attribute hash
added. These features combined support for setting an aggressive Content
Security Policy on scripts loaded.

nonce contained invalid characters

Why This Error Occurred

This happens when there is a request that contains a Content-Security-Policy header that contains a script-src directive with a nonce value that contains invalid characters (any one of <>& characters). For example:

  • 'nonce-<script />': not allowed
  • 'nonce-/>script<>': not allowed
  • 'nonce-PHNjcmlwdCAvPg==': allowed
  • 'nonce-Lz5zY3JpcHQ8Pg==': allowed

Possible Ways to Fix It

Replace the nonce value with a base64 encoded value.
