Critical security vulnerabilities and missing production safeguards detected. SQL injection risk, exposed secrets, and no rate limiting make this unsafe for production deployment.
Summary
Critical security flaws detected including SQL injection vulnerabilities, exposed API keys in git history, and missing authentication rate limiting. These issues pose immediate risk to user data and system integrity.
Issues Found (3)
SQL Injection in Login Authentication
CRITICALapi/auth/login.ts:42
Description
User-supplied credentials are directly concatenated into SQL queries without parameterization in the authentication flow. An attacker can bypass authentication or extract sensitive data by injecting malicious SQL code.
Business Impact
CRITICAL: Attackers can gain unauthorized access to any user account or steal the entire user database including passwords and PII.
Recommendation
Use parameterized queries or an ORM like Prisma with prepared statements. Never concatenate user input directly into SQL.
Safe Fix Guidelines
Replace string concatenation with Prisma client methods or use pg.query with parameterized values ($1, $2, etc.)
API Keys Exposed in Git History
CRITICAL.env.production
Description
Production API keys for Stripe, SendGrid, and AWS were found in commit 3f7a9b2 from 3 months ago. Even though they were removed in a later commit, they remain in git history and can be accessed by anyone with repository access.
Business Impact
CRITICAL: Exposed API keys allow attackers to send emails from your domain, charge your Stripe account, and access AWS resources.
Recommendation
Immediately rotate all exposed API keys. Use environment variables and never commit .env files. Add .env* to .gitignore and use git-secrets or similar tools.
Safe Fix Guidelines
Rotate keys in Stripe/SendGrid/AWS dashboards. Use GitHub secrets for CI/CD and environment variables for production.
Missing Rate Limiting on API Endpoints
HIGHapi/middleware/security.ts
Description
API endpoints for authentication, password reset, and data queries have no rate limiting. This makes the application vulnerable to credential stuffing, DDoS attacks, and data scraping.
Business Impact
HIGH: Attackers can brute-force passwords, overwhelm the server with requests, or scrape all user data.
Recommendation
Implement rate limiting using express-rate-limit or similar middleware. Set aggressive limits on auth endpoints (5 requests/minute) and moderate limits on data endpoints (100 requests/minute).
Safe Fix Guidelines
Add rate-limit middleware before route handlers. Store rate limit state in Redis for distributed deployments.
