SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires jq, python3, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill proactively identifies security vulnerabilities within your codebase, including dependency flaws, secret leaks, and common coding errors, before they can be exploited.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency Scanning: Detects known vulnerabilities (CVEs) in your project's dependencies (npm, pip, etc.).
  • Secret Detection: Finds hardcoded API keys, credentials, and other sensitive information.
  • SAST: Analyzes code for common security flaws like injection vulnerabilities and OWASP Top 10 risks.
  • Use Case: Before merging a pull request, run a full security audit to ensure no critical vulnerabilities or exposed secrets are introduced into the production environment.

Quick Start

Run a comprehensive security audit on the current project directory.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scan my codebase for security vulnerabilities and exposed secrets?

To scan your codebase for security vulnerabilities, you can run a comprehensive audit that detects dependency CVEs, hardcoded secrets, and OWASP Top 10 compliance issues. This process utilizes tools like npm audit and pip-audit to identify risks before exploitation.

What is SAST and how does it find injection vulnerabilities in my code?

SAST, or Static Application Security Testing, analyzes source code to identify common security flaws like injection vulnerabilities. It checks your code against the OWASP Top 10 risks to proactively find coding errors before deployment.

Can I integrate dependency CVE scanning into my CI/CD pipeline before merging pull requests?

Yes, you can integrate automated security auditing into your CI/CD pipeline. Running a full security audit before merging a pull request ensures no critical vulnerabilities or exposed secrets are introduced into the production environment.

Do I need Python3 and jq installed to run automated security audits?

Yes, you need Python3 and jq installed in your environment to run the custom secret detection scripts and process the detailed security reports with remediation guidance.

How do I detect hardcoded API keys and credentials in my project?

To detect hardcoded API keys and credentials, run the custom secret detection scripts provided by the security auditor. This scan finds sensitive information exposed in your codebase and provides detailed remediation guidance to secure it.

What's the best way to check my project for OWASP Top 10 compliance issues?

The best way to check for OWASP Top 10 compliance issues is running a comprehensive SAST analysis on your project directory. This identifies common security flaws and provides detailed reports with actionable remediation guidance.
