Potential fix for https://github.com/docmirror/dev-sidecar/security/code-scanning/9

In general, fix this by never disabling TLS certificate validation globally via NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED='0'. Keep validation enabled ('1') and, if needed in special test scenarios, use scoped trust configuration (for example custom CA/cert options on specific TLS clients) rather than process-wide bypass.

Best minimal fix in this file: replace the conditional branch that sets '0' with logic that always enforces '1'. This preserves startup behavior and avoids introducing new dependencies or broad refactors, while removing the insecure path.
Specifically, in packages/mitmproxy/src/index.js around lines 20–24, replace the if/else block with a single assignment:

  • process.env.NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = '1'

No new imports, methods, or definitions are needed.
