About This Skill
What it does
This skill provides GraphQL security features. It helps protect GraphQL APIs from common vulnerabilities and attacks. Specifically, it offers protection against denial of service (DoS) attacks and query complexity exploits.
When to use it
- Protecting a public GraphQL API: Ensure your API is resilient to malicious queries that could overload the server.
- Enforcing query limits: Prevent users from submitting excessively complex or resource-intensive queries.
- Securing internal APIs: Safeguard backend services exposed via GraphQL endpoints.
- Auditing potential vulnerabilities: Identify and mitigate security risks within your GraphQL implementation.
Key capabilities
- Denial of Service (DoS) protection
- Query complexity limiting
- Vulnerability mitigation
Example prompts
- "Implement a query depth limit of 10."
- "Protect against denial-of-service attacks on the /graphql endpoint."
- "What is the current query complexity threshold?"
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires access to and configuration within your GraphQL server environment. Incorrectly configured limits may impact legitimate users, so careful testing is recommended.
