SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This tool identifies critical security vulnerabilities in authentication implementations, such as missing CSRF protection, weak password hashing, and insecure session management, preventing potential data breaches before they happen.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Vulnerability Scanning: Automatically detects common auth mistakes like hardcoded secrets or insecure cookie flags.
  • Best Practice Enforcement: Validates password hashing algorithms and session configuration against industry standards.
  • Use Case: Run this audit before deploying a new user authentication module to ensure your login handlers and JWT generation logic meet modern security requirements.

Quick Start

Run the auth-auditor tool against your project directory to scan all authentication files for security vulnerabilities.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scan Node.js authentication code for security vulnerabilities?

To scan Node.js authentication code for security vulnerabilities, run a static analysis audit against your project directory to detect CSRF, weak hashing, and session mismanagement issues. This tool requires a Node.js 18+ environment to execute and generate fix recommendations.

What authentication security flaws can be detected in source code?

Authentication security flaws detected in source code include missing CSRF protection, weak password hashing, hardcoded secrets, insecure cookie flags, and insecure session mismanagement. Static analysis validates these implementations against industry security best practices.

Do I need Node.js 18+ to audit JWT and session management code?

Yes, you need Node.js 18+ to audit JWT and session management code. The static analysis tool requires this specific environment version to execute its vulnerability scanning and generate fix recommendations for authentication implementations.

When should I run an authentication audit on my login handlers?

Run an authentication audit on your login handlers before deploying a new user authentication module. This ensures your JWT generation logic and session configuration meet modern security requirements and prevents potential data breaches.

Can I check password hashing algorithms and cookie flags against security standards?

Yes, you can check password hashing algorithms and cookie flags against security standards. The audit enforces best practices by validating password hashing algorithms and verifying insecure cookie flags within your authentication implementation.

What is the best way to find hardcoded secrets in authentication implementations?

The best way to find hardcoded secrets in authentication implementations is using automated vulnerability scanning. This detects common authentication mistakes and generates fix recommendations to ensure compliance with modern security requirements.
