unsafe-api-consumption

What problem does it solve?

External API data can be tampered with or mishandled, leading to security risks such as injection, deserialization flaws, and SSRF, as well as broken business logic.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Validate external API responses against explicit schemas (typed models, JSON schema, or protobuf) before reaching business logic.
• Prevent untrusted data from reaching injection sinks by using safe parsing, strict typing, and boundary checks.
• Use Case: When integrating with a partner API, automatically validate and sanitize responses to avoid security and stability issues.

Quick Start

Flag unvalidated external API data in your code and implement schema validation before use.
