/**
 * E2E Test: Open Redirect Protection
 *
 * User Story: US3 - Protected Routes with Validated Redirects
 * Task: T012
 *
 * **Purpose**: Verify that the application prevents open redirect vulnerabilities
 * by validating redirect URLs and only allowing same-origin paths
 *
 * **Security Context**:
 * Open redirect vulnerabilities occur when an attacker can control where a user
 * is redirected after authentication. This can be used for phishing attacks by
 * redirecting users to malicious sites that look like the legitimate application.
 *
 * **Acceptance Criteria**:
 * - AC-1: External URLs (https://evil.com) are rejected and user redirects to /dashboard
 * - AC-2: Protocol-relative URLs (//evil.com) are rejected and user redirects to /dashboard
 * - AC-3: Valid same-origin paths (/projects, /tasks) are allowed
 * - AC-4: Invalid redirect types (null, undefined, numbers) fallback to /dashboard
 * - AC-5: No redirect parameter defaults to /dashboard
 *
 * **Technical Implementation**:
 * - Uses validateRedirect() utility function
 * - Validates on login page before setting redirectPath
 * - Only allows paths starting with / but not //
 * - Fallback to /dashboard for any invalid input
 *
 * **Test Flow**:
 * 1. Navigate to /login with malicious redirect parameter
 * 2. Complete OAuth authentication
 * 3. Verify redirect to /dashboard (NOT malicious URL)
 *
 * **OWASP Reference**:
 * https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Unvalidated_Redirects_and_Forwards_Cheat_Sheet.html

/**
 * INTEGRATION WITH validateRedirect() UTILITY:
 *
 * These E2E tests verify the behavior from the user's perspective.
 * The actual validation logic is implemented in:
 * - `app/utils/validateRedirect.ts` (utility function)
 * - `app/pages/login.vue` (integration point)
 *
 * Expected validateRedirect() implementation:
 * ```typescript
 * export const validateRedirect = (
 *   redirect: string | unknown,
 *   fallback = '/dashboard'
 * ): string => {
 *   if (typeof redirect !== 'string') return fallback;
 *   if (redirect.startsWith('/') && !redirect.startsWith('//')) {
 *     return redirect;
 *   }
 *   return fallback;
 * };
 * ```
 *
 * Expected login.vue usage:
 * ```typescript
 * const redirectPath = validateRedirect(route.query.redirect, '/dashboard');
 * // Use redirectPath for post-login navigation
 * ```
 *
 * SECURITY TESTING CHECKLIST:
 *
 * ✅ External URLs (https://evil.com)
 * ✅ Protocol-relative URLs (//evil.com)
 * ✅ Data URIs (data:text/html,...)
 * ✅ JavaScript URIs (javascript:...)
 * ✅ URL-encoded redirects
 * ✅ Double-encoded redirects
 * ✅ Valid internal paths
 * ✅ Paths with query parameters
 * ✅ Missing redirect parameter
 *
 * PENETRATION TESTING NOTES:
 *
 * Test with actual OAuth flow to ensure:
 * 1. Redirect validation happens BEFORE OAuth callback
 * 2. OAuth state parameter is not affected by redirect validation
 * 3. Validation is consistent across all OAuth providers
 * 4. Error messages don't leak validation logic to attackers
 *
 * MANUAL TESTING PROCEDURE:
 *
 * 1. Open browser dev tools (Network tab)
 * 2. Navigate to: http://localhost:3000/login?redirect=https://evil.com
 * 3. Complete OAuth login
 * 4. Verify redirect to /dashboard (check Network tab for redirect chain)
 * 5. Verify URL bar shows http://localhost:3000/dashboard (NOT evil.com)
 * 6. Repeat with different malicious payloads from test suite
