Can ipcRenderer methods be considered secure if they are only protected by a startsWith if statement?

edit

It depends on the specific use case and implementation. Generally speaking, a simple startsWith if statement is not enough to ensure complete security. There may be legitimate cases where the method name needs to start with a certain string, which could potentially allow a malicious actor to bypass the if statement.

To ensure security, additional measures such as input validation, data sanitization, and authentication/authorization checks should be implemented. It is also important to consider the potential risks and threats that may arise from using ipcRenderer methods and to design security measures accordingly.
