SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides comprehensive guidance and best practices for securing Java Spring Boot applications, addressing common vulnerabilities and ensuring robust protection for authentication, authorization, input handling, and sensitive data.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Authentication & Authorization: Implement secure token-based authentication (JWT, opaque tokens) and granular access control using method security.
  • Input Validation & Sanitization: Prevent injection attacks (SQL, XSS) by validating and sanitizing all user inputs.
  • Security Headers & Rate Limiting: Configure essential security headers and implement rate limiting to protect against common web exploits and abuse.
  • Use Case: A developer needs to secure a new REST API endpoint that handles user data. They can consult this Skill for guidance on implementing JWT authentication, method-level authorization, input validation for request bodies, and setting appropriate security headers.

Quick Start

Use the springboot-security skill to secure a new REST API endpoint by implementing JWT authentication and method-level authorization.

How do I implement JWT authentication and method-level authorization in Spring Boot?▼

Implement JWT authentication in Spring Boot by configuring token-based security filters and applying method-level authorization to enforce granular access control over your REST API endpoints.

What is the best way to prevent SQL injection and XSS in Spring Boot web applications?▼

Preventing SQL injection and XSS in Spring Boot web applications requires validating and sanitizing all user inputs through secure coding patterns before processing request bodies.

How do I configure security headers and rate limiting for a Spring Boot REST API?▼

Configure security headers and rate limiting for a Spring Boot REST API by applying essential header settings and request throttling to protect against common web exploits and abuse.

Does this Spring Security guidance cover secrets management and dependency security?▼

Yes, this Spring Security guidance covers secrets management and dependency security, providing best practices to protect sensitive data and address known vulnerabilities in your application.

When do I need CSRF protection for my Spring Boot services?▼

You need CSRF protection for Spring Boot services when handling stateful web sessions, whereas token-based REST APIs generally rely on JWT authentication and security headers instead.
