- [ ] Changes file added for user-visible changes in `changes/`,
`orbit/changes/` or `ee/fleetd-chrome/changes`.
See [Changes
files](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/guides/committing-changes.md#changes-files)
for more information. Will be added in the backend work PR
- [x] Input data is properly validated, `SELECT *` is avoided, SQL
injection is prevented (using placeholders for values in statements), JS
inline code is prevented especially for url redirects, and untrusted
data interpolated into shell scripts/commands is validated against shell
metacharacters.
- [x] Timeouts are implemented and retries are limited to avoid infinite
loops
- [x] If paths of existing endpoints are modified without backwards
compatibility, checked the frontend/CLI for any necessary changes
## Testing
- [x] Added/updated automated tests
- [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually
## Database migrations
- [x] Checked schema for all modified table for columns that will
auto-update timestamps during migration.
- [x] Confirmed that updating the timestamps is acceptable, and will not
cause unwanted side effects.
- [x] Ensured the correct collation is explicitly set for character
columns (`COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci`).
