About This Skill
What it does
This skill performs security audits of frontend codebases to identify vulnerabilities and potential weaknesses. It scans for dangerous coding patterns, reviews framework-specific risks, validates existing defensive measures (like CSP and CSRF tokens), and checks project dependencies for known vulnerabilities. The skill then categorizes findings by severity and provides remediation guidance based on the identified issues.
When to use it
- When starting a new frontend project to proactively identify security concerns early on.
- During code reviews to ensure secure coding practices are followed.
- After making significant changes to a frontend codebase to assess potential security impacts.
- As part of a regular security assessment process for existing applications.
- To investigate specific security concerns or reports within a frontend project.
Key capabilities
- Vulnerability Scanning: Searches codebases for indicators of common vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), CSRF, and sensitive data exposure.
- Framework Risk Review: Checks for framework-specific security bypass patterns.
- Defensive Measure Validation: Verifies the presence and correctness of security controls such as Content Security Policy (CSP) and CSRF tokens.
- Dependency Checking: Reviews npm/node dependencies for known vulnerabilities.
- Reporting & Guidance: Categorizes findings by severity and provides links to relevant documentation for remediation.
Example prompts
- "Perform a frontend security audit of this codebase."
- "Check this project for XSS vulnerabilities."
- "Review the forms in this application for CSRF protection."
- "Audit dependencies for known vulnerabilities."
Tips & gotchas
- The skill relies on pattern matching (grep) and may produce false positives. Careful review of findings is necessary.
- The accuracy of the audit depends on the completeness and quality of the codebase being analyzed.
- Refer to the provided reference documentation for detailed guidance on addressing identified issues.
