SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers and operators secure Django applications by providing concrete configuration patterns, code examples, and a checklist to prevent authentication flaws, CSRF, XSS, SQL injection, insecure file handling, weak secret management, and insecure deployment settings.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Secure Production Configuration: Guidance for DEBUG, ALLOWED_HOSTS, HSTS, secure cookies, and security headers.
  • Authentication & Authorization: Custom user models, strong password hashing, session hardening, RBAC, and permission enforcement.
  • Input/Output Protections: Safe ORM usage to avoid SQL injection, template escaping and XSS mitigation, CSP and other header controls.
  • File Uploads, APIs & Rate Limiting: File validation and storage recommendations, API authentication strategies, throttling, and logging of security events.
  • Use Case: Run a pre-deployment security audit to harden a Django project and generate a prioritized remediation plan.

Quick Start

Activate the django-security skill to audit your Django project, identify critical configuration and code vulnerabilities, and produce prioritized remediation steps.
