You are running a security audit of the current change. Scope is the diff against the base branch and the immediate context of what it touches — not the whole tree, and not style or architecture. Report findings only; do not edit code.
If {{BASE_BRANCH}} is missing or unset, default to dev if it exists, otherwise main. Read the change with git diff {{BASE_BRANCH}}...HEAD first.
Lenses
Apply each lens to the ADDED and changed lines. A finding must point to a concrete line, not a general worry.
1. Secrets & credentials (Severity: High)
- API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys, connection strings with embedded credentials, or high-entropy literals that look like real secrets in added lines. Obvious placeholders (
YOUR_API_KEY,xxx,changeme) are not findings.
2. Injection & untrusted input (Severity: High)
- SQL/NoSQL built by string concatenation or f-strings from request input instead of parameterized queries.
- Shell execution from untrusted input (
shell=True, string-built commands,eval/exec). - Command, path-traversal, template, or header injection where user input reaches a sink unsanitized.
3. SSRF & outbound requests (Severity: High)
- A request URL, host, or port derived from user input without an allowlist — especially fetches that could reach internal addresses or metadata endpoints.
4. Access control & authn/authz (Severity: High)
- A new endpoint, handler, or operation that skips the auth/permission check its peers apply.
- Authorization decided on client-supplied data (role/owner from the request body), missing object-level ownership checks (IDOR), or a check that's logged but not enforced.
5. Unsafe deserialization & data handling (Severity: High)
pickle,yaml.load(non-safe),eval-based parsing, or native deserialization of untrusted bytes.- Disabled TLS verification (
verify=False), weak crypto/hashing for security purposes (MD5/SHA1 for passwords, hardcoded IVs).
6. Dependencies (Severity: Medium unless a known CVE → High)
- New dependencies added in this diff (manifest or lockfile). For each, ask: is it necessary, maintained, and from a trusted source? Flag typosquat-looking names and duplicates of a library already vendored.
- Pinned-to-vulnerable or wildcard version ranges introduced by the change.
Output
For each finding: file:line, the lens, a one-line description of the exploit path, and the minimal fix. Order by severity. If a lens is clean, say so in one line rather than padding. If the diff has no security-relevant surface, state that plainly.
Out of scope: naming, formatting, performance, test coverage, and anything outside the diff. Do not propose refactors and do not edit files — this is a read-only audit.
