java.lang.Object

graphql.introspection.GoodFaithIntrospection

@PublicApi
public class GoodFaithIntrospection
extends java.lang.Object

This Instrumentation ensure that a submitted introspection query is done in good faith.

There are attack vectors where a crafted introspection query can cause the engine to spend too much time producing introspection data. This is especially true on large schemas with lots of types and fields.

Schemas form a cyclic graph and hence it's possible to send in introspection queries that can reference those cycles and in large schemas this can be expensive and perhaps a "denial of service".

This instrumentation only allows one __schema field or one __type field to be present, and it does not allow the `__Type` fields to form a cycle, i.e., that can only be present once. This allows the standard and common introspection queries to work so tooling such as graphiql can work.
