Security Review Skill

\n

This skill ensures all code follows security best practices and identifies potential vulnerabilities.

\n

When to Activate

\n\n

Security Checklist

\n

1. Secrets Management

\n

FAIL: NEVER Do This

\n
const apiKey = \"sk-proj-xxxxx\"  // Hardcoded secret\nconst dbPassword = \"password123\" // In source code\n
\n

PASS: ALWAYS Do This

\n
const apiKey = process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY\nconst dbUrl = process.env.DATABASE_URL\n\n// Verify secrets exist\nif (!apiKey) {\n  throw new Error('OPENAI_API_KEY not configured')\n}\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

2. Input Validation

\n

Always Validate User Input

\n
import { z } from 'zod'\n\n// Define validation schema\nconst CreateUserSchema = z.object({\n  email: z.string().email(),\n  name: z.string().min(1).max(100),\n  age: z.number().int().min(0).max(150)\n})\n\n// Validate before processing\nexport async function createUser(input: unknown) {\n  try {\n    const validated = CreateUserSchema.parse(input)\n    return await db.users.create(validated)\n  } catch (error) {\n    if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {\n      return { success: false, errors: error.errors }\n    }\n    throw error\n  }\n}\n
\n

File Upload Validation

\n
function validateFileUpload(file: File) {\n  // Size check (5MB max)\n  const maxSize = 5 * 1024 * 1024\n  if (file.size > maxSize) {\n    throw new Error('File too large (max 5MB)')\n  }\n\n  // Type check\n  const allowedTypes = ['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/gif']\n  if (!allowedTypes.includes(file.type)) {\n    throw new Error('Invalid file type')\n  }\n\n  // Extension check\n  const allowedExtensions = ['.jpg', '.jpeg', '.png', '.gif']\n  const extension = file.name.toLowerCase().match(/\\.[^.]+$/)?.[0]\n  if (!extension || !allowedExtensions.includes(extension)) {\n    throw new Error('Invalid file extension')\n  }\n\n  return true\n}\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

3. SQL Injection Prevention

\n

FAIL: NEVER Concatenate SQL

\n
// DANGEROUS - SQL Injection vulnerability\nconst query = `SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = '${userEmail}'`\nawait db.query(query)\n
\n

PASS: ALWAYS Use Parameterized Queries

\n
// Safe - parameterized query\nconst { data } = await supabase\n  .from('users')\n  .select('*')\n  .eq('email', userEmail)\n\n// Or with raw SQL\nawait db.query(\n  'SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = $1',\n  [userEmail]\n)\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

4. Authentication & Authorization

\n

JWT Token Handling

\n
// FAIL: WRONG: localStorage (vulnerable to XSS)\nlocalStorage.setItem('token', token)\n\n// PASS: CORRECT: httpOnly cookies\nres.setHeader('Set-Cookie',\n  `token=${token}; HttpOnly; Secure; SameSite=Strict; Max-Age=3600`)\n
\n

Authorization Checks

\n
export async function deleteUser(userId: string, requesterId: string) {\n  // ALWAYS verify authorization first\n  const requester = await db.users.findUnique({\n    where: { id: requesterId }\n  })\n\n  if (requester.role !== 'admin') {\n    return NextResponse.json(\n      { error: 'Unauthorized' },\n      { status: 403 }\n    )\n  }\n\n  // Proceed with deletion\n  await db.users.delete({ where: { id: userId } })\n}\n
\n

Row Level Security (Supabase)

\n
-- Enable RLS on all tables\nALTER TABLE users ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;\n\n-- Users can only view their own data\nCREATE POLICY \"Users view own data\"\n  ON users FOR SELECT\n  USING (auth.uid() = id);\n\n-- Users can only update their own data\nCREATE POLICY \"Users update own data\"\n  ON users FOR UPDATE\n  USING (auth.uid() = id);\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

5. XSS Prevention

\n

Sanitize HTML

\n
import DOMPurify from 'isomorphic-dompurify'\n\n// ALWAYS sanitize user-provided HTML\nfunction renderUserContent(html: string) {\n  const clean = DOMPurify.sanitize(html, {\n    ALLOWED_TAGS: ['b', 'i', 'em', 'strong', 'p'],\n    ALLOWED_ATTR: []\n  })\n  return <div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: clean }} />\n}\n
\n

Content Security Policy

\n
// next.config.js\nconst securityHeaders = [\n  {\n    key: 'Content-Security-Policy',\n    value: `\n      default-src 'self';\n      script-src 'self' 'unsafe-eval' 'unsafe-inline';\n      style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';\n      img-src 'self' data: https:;\n      font-src 'self';\n      connect-src 'self' https://api.example.com;\n    `.replace(/\\s{2,}/g, ' ').trim()\n  }\n]\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

6. CSRF Protection

\n

CSRF Tokens

\n
import { csrf } from '@/lib/csrf'\n\nexport async function POST(request: Request) {\n  const token = request.headers.get('X-CSRF-Token')\n\n  if (!csrf.verify(token)) {\n    return NextResponse.json(\n      { error: 'Invalid CSRF token' },\n      { status: 403 }\n    )\n  }\n\n  // Process request\n}\n
\n

SameSite Cookies

\n
res.setHeader('Set-Cookie',\n  `session=${sessionId}; HttpOnly; Secure; SameSite=Strict`)\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

7. Rate Limiting

\n

API Rate Limiting

\n
import rateLimit from 'express-rate-limit'\n\nconst limiter = rateLimit({\n  windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes\n  max: 100, // 100 requests per window\n  message: 'Too many requests'\n})\n\n// Apply to routes\napp.use('/api/', limiter)\n
\n

Expensive Operations

\n
// Aggressive rate limiting for searches\nconst searchLimiter = rateLimit({\n  windowMs: 60 * 1000, // 1 minute\n  max: 10, // 10 requests per minute\n  message: 'Too many search requests'\n})\n\napp.use('/api/search', searchLimiter)\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

8. Sensitive Data Exposure

\n

Logging

\n
// FAIL: WRONG: Logging sensitive data\nconsole.log('User login:', { email, password })\nconsole.log('Payment:', { cardNumber, cvv })\n\n// PASS: CORRECT: Redact sensitive data\nconsole.log('User login:', { email, userId })\nconsole.log('Payment:', { last4: card.last4, userId })\n
\n

Error Messages

\n
// FAIL: WRONG: Exposing internal details\ncatch (error) {\n  return NextResponse.json(\n    { error: error.message, stack: error.stack },\n    { status: 500 }\n  )\n}\n\n// PASS: CORRECT: Generic error messages\ncatch (error) {\n  console.error('Internal error:', error)\n  return NextResponse.json(\n    { error: 'An error occurred. Please try again.' },\n    { status: 500 }\n  )\n}\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

9. Blockchain Security (Solana)

\n

Wallet Verification

\n
import { verify } from '@solana/web3.js'\n\nasync function verifyWalletOwnership(\n  publicKey: string,\n  signature: string,\n  message: string\n) {\n  try {\n    const isValid = verify(\n      Buffer.from(message),\n      Buffer.from(signature, 'base64'),\n      Buffer.from(publicKey, 'base64')\n    )\n    return isValid\n  } catch (error) {\n    return false\n  }\n}\n
\n

Transaction Verification

\n
async function verifyTransaction(transaction: Transaction) {\n  // Verify recipient\n  if (transaction.to !== expectedRecipient) {\n    throw new Error('Invalid recipient')\n  }\n\n  // Verify amount\n  if (transaction.amount > maxAmount) {\n    throw new Error('Amount exceeds limit')\n  }\n\n  // Verify user has sufficient balance\n  const balance = await getBalance(transaction.from)\n  if (balance < transaction.amount) {\n    throw new Error('Insufficient balance')\n  }\n\n  return true\n}\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

10. Dependency Security

\n

Regular Updates

\n
# Check for vulnerabilities\nnpm audit\n\n# Fix automatically fixable issues\nnpm audit fix\n\n# Update dependencies\nnpm update\n\n# Check for outdated packages\nnpm outdated\n
\n

Lock Files

\n
# ALWAYS commit lock files\ngit add package-lock.json\n\n# Use in CI/CD for reproducible builds\nnpm ci  # Instead of npm install\n
\n

Verification Steps

\n\n

Security Testing

\n

Automated Security Tests

\n
// Test authentication\ntest('requires authentication', async () => {\n  const response = await fetch('/api/protected')\n  expect(response.status).toBe(401)\n})\n\n// Test authorization\ntest('requires admin role', async () => {\n  const response = await fetch('/api/admin', {\n    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${userToken}` }\n  })\n  expect(response.status).toBe(403)\n})\n\n// Test input validation\ntest('rejects invalid input', async () => {\n  const response = await fetch('/api/users', {\n    method: 'POST',\n    body: JSON.stringify({ email: 'not-an-email' })\n  })\n  expect(response.status).toBe(400)\n})\n\n// Test rate limiting\ntest('enforces rate limits', async () => {\n  const requests = Array(101).fill(null).map(() =>\n    fetch('/api/endpoint')\n  )\n\n  const responses = await Promise.all(requests)\n  const tooManyRequests = responses.filter(r => r.status === 429)\n\n  expect(tooManyRequests.length).toBeGreaterThan(0)\n})\n
\n

Remember: Security is not optional. One vulnerability can compromise the entire platform. When in doubt, err on the side of caution.
