⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Add an ABSPATH entry guard before this mutation fixture executes.

Line 54 onward mutates DB/settings, but this file is missing the required defined('ABSPATH') || exit; gate at file start. That leaves direct execution risk in environments where test files are web-reachable.

🔧 Proposed fix 
 <?php
+defined('ABSPATH') || exit;
 /**
  * Set up the SSO e2e test environment.

As per coding guidelines, “Every PHP file must start with defined('ABSPATH') || exit;”.

* --------------------------------------------------------------------------
* FIXME (skipped) — environment limitation, not a product bug
* --------------------------------------------------------------------------
* In the current wp-env CI environment (port 8889), domain mapping for the
* mapped host `127.0.0.1:8889` does not take effect: requests to
* `http://127.0.0.1:8889/` are redirected back to `http://localhost:8889/`,
* so every assertion that expects the mapped host to serve the subsite or
* trigger the SSO redirect with `sso=login` necessarily fails. The
* limitation is acknowledged in the header note above ("the SSO redirect
* chain goes through localhost:8889 where cookies already exist"), but the
* assertions below were written as if the mapping worked end-to-end. The
* spec has therefore never passed on `main` since it was added.
*
* The SSO trigger logic that DOES work in this environment is covered by
* `065-sso-redirect-loop.spec.js` (passing). Until the CI environment is
* reconfigured so domain mapping survives non-standard ports — for example
* by running wp-env on port 80, by adding an Nginx host alias, or by
* routing `127.0.0.1:8889` through a Caddy/Traefik reverse proxy — this
* suite is skipped to keep the required `cypress (8.2, chrome)` check
* green. Restoration is tracked in #1322.
* Uses localhost vs sso-test.ultimate-multisite.test — two genuinely
* different hostnames with cookies scoped per hostname. The mapped hostname is
* resolved through a CI /etc/hosts entry so the request reaches the same
* wp-env port while preserving the mapped Host header for domain mapping.

Clarify what the SSO test validates (wp-env main-origin handoff) and strengthen mapped-domain assertions.

The SSO implementation redirects based on return_url/redirect_to: when the user is already logged in on the main site, handle_main_site_logged_in_user() redirects with a cookie-less token and a redirect_to param, and handle_cookie_less_sso_token() consumes wu_sso_token and then wp_safe_redirect()s to redirect_to (defaulting to admin_url). In wp-env, that can legitimately result in the final landing URL being the main site's origin (as the spec comment already describes), so the end-state assertions on /wp-admin/ + #wpadminbar are consistent with “SSO-authenticated session exists” even if the browser ends up back on mainSiteUrl.

What’s missing for “cross-domain authentication” coverage is a direct post-SSO check that the mapped domain stays authenticated (e.g., after the final step, revisit ${mappedDomainUrl}/wp-admin/ and assert you land on the admin UI without being re-triggered into login/SSO). Update the test name/comments to reflect the wp-env handoff behavior, or add the mapped-domain verification as above.
