LibreJS intercepts HTTP responses and rewrites their contents after -analyzing JavaScript within them. It does not remove script nodes and -attributes from the page, but instead “deactivates” them by modifying -the type and src attributes on script elements and by -moving the contents of inline JavaScript attributes such as onClick -into harmless attributes. -

LibreJS detects the most common cases using the HTTP response method -described above, but in extremely rare cases, or when running code -locally, LibreJS cannot detect JavaScript during the response stage. -

To remedy this issue, and as a final safeguard, LibreJS takes a look -at the scripts that are about to be executed while the browser engine is -parsing the page. If the script is not found in a list of accepted -scripts populated earlier, the execution will be prevented. This is to -ensure content types that are not regular HTML (binhex with HTML in it, -…) and JavaScript do not fall through the cracks and get executed. -
