SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a systematic protocol for identifying and remediating security vulnerabilities in codebases. It automates the process of performing security assessments, pre-deployment reviews, and compliance validation (OWASP, PCI-DSS, GDPR), ensuring your applications are robust against common threats.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability Identification: Systematically scan for injection flaws, authentication issues, sensitive data exposure, and misconfigurations.
  • Risk Prioritization: Generate findings organized by severity (CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW) with CVSS scores and OWASP Top 10 mapping.
  • Use Case: Before deploying a new feature, use this Skill to conduct a comprehensive security audit. It will analyze your code, identify potential SQL injection points, hardcoded secrets, or broken access controls, and provide actionable remediation steps, saving you from costly breaches.

Quick Start

Ask for a security audit with specific context

Example: Audit the user authentication module for injection vulnerabilities and hardcoded secrets.

Consider the src/auth directory and docs/api-contracts.yaml.

FAQPage Schema
How do I identify security vulnerabilities in my codebase before deployment?

Security audits systematically scan codebases for injection flaws, authentication issues, sensitive data exposure, and misconfigurations. This Skill analyzes your code against OWASP Top 10 standards, generates CVSS scores, and prioritizes findings by severity so you can remediate critical issues before they reach production.

What does OWASP Top 10 mapping mean and why does it matter for compliance?

OWASP Top 10 mapping categorizes vulnerabilities against industry-standard risk classifications. This Skill aligns findings to OWASP frameworks, making it easier to demonstrate compliance with PCI-DSS, GDPR, and other regulations during audits and assessments.

Can I audit specific code modules or do I need to scan the entire application?

This Skill supports flexible scoping: audit individual features, components, or your full application. You provide codebase context and architecture documentation, and it delivers prioritized findings with remediation guidance tailored to your chosen scope.

How do security audits help prevent costly breaches?

Security audits identify exploitable weaknesses like SQL injection points and hardcoded secrets early. By addressing vulnerabilities before deployment with actionable remediation steps, you eliminate attack vectors that breach-response teams would otherwise face in production.

What input do I need to provide for a comprehensive security audit?

Provide your codebase, architecture documentation, API contracts, and feature implementations. The Skill analyzes this context to generate findings with exploit scenarios, CVSS scores, OWASP mappings, and a risk-prioritized remediation plan.
