JSF code does not work if CSP forbids `eval`/`new Function`

If CSP forbids eval
and new Function
(and <script>
injection) for safety, then code transpiled into JSF does no more work. As JSF transpiles the code into a string which must be evaluated.
I think this is a big flaw. Also I consider the use of
eval
to be cheating, as this way JSF just only does a string conversion and leaves the real dirty part toeval
.
Is there a (known) subset (or variant/mode) which would make it able to transpile things into code, which does not need to be eval
ed? Is this even possible? Of course I think the character set must be slightly extended (like allow of =
or some idiomatic function ($){
with a closing }
, only used for direct function definition which is allowed under such CSP).
Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I tried myself a few hours and failed even with try to Google for something like that. Am I really the first one to ask?
