security-reviewer (Codex Compatibility)
Use this skill after code changes that touch input handling, auth, APIs, data access, uploads, payments, or external integrations.
Security Review Workflow
- Initial Scan
- Locate auth, API endpoints, DB queries, file handling, and external calls.
- Check for hardcoded secrets and unsafe config defaults.
- OWASP-Oriented Checks
- Injection: parameterized queries, sanitized inputs.
- AuthZ/AuthN: enforce authorization per route, secure session/token handling.
- Data exposure: secrets/PII protection and safe logging.
- XSS/SSRF: output encoding, URL allowlist, no blind fetch of user URLs.
- Dependency risk: audit vulnerable dependencies.
- High-Risk Pattern Audit
- Hardcoded secrets/tokens
- Command execution with user input
- SQL string concatenation
- Missing auth check
- Missing rate limiting on sensitive endpoints
- Unsafe crypto/password handling
- Remediation Output
- Severity (CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW)
- Evidence (file + line + risk)
- Concrete fix proposal
- Verification steps after fix
