# 🔒 Security Vulnerabilities - Corrected Code Examples
|
||||
|
||||
## 1. SQL Injection - Table Name Whitelist
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Vulnerable)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const getById = async (table, id) => {
|
||||
const result = await query(`SELECT * FROM ${table} WHERE id = $1`, [id]);
|
||||
return result.rows[0] || null;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Could be exploited:
|
||||
// getById("users; DROP TABLE users;--", 1)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Secure)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Whitelist of allowed table names
|
||||
const ALLOWED_TABLES = [
|
||||
"products", "product_images", "portfolioprojects",
|
||||
"blogposts", "pages", "adminusers", "roles",
|
||||
"uploads", "media_folders", "team_members", "site_settings"
|
||||
];
|
||||
|
||||
// Validate table name against whitelist
|
||||
const validateTableName = (table) => {
|
||||
if (!ALLOWED_TABLES.includes(table)) {
|
||||
throw new Error(`Invalid table name: ${table}`);
|
||||
}
|
||||
return table;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
const getById = async (table, id) => {
|
||||
validateTableName(table); // ← Validation added
|
||||
const result = await query(`SELECT * FROM ${table} WHERE id = $1`, [id]);
|
||||
return result.rows[0] || null;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Now throws error on malicious input
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 2. Weak Password Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Weak)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
body("password")
|
||||
.isLength({ min: 8 })
|
||||
.withMessage("Password must be at least 8 characters")
|
||||
|
||||
// Accepted: "password" (too weak!)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Strong)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
body("password")
|
||||
.isLength({ min: 12 })
|
||||
.withMessage("Password must be at least 12 characters")
|
||||
.matches(/^(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*\d)(?=.*[@$!%*?&#])/)
|
||||
.withMessage("Password must contain uppercase, lowercase, number, and special character")
|
||||
|
||||
// Now requires: "MySecure123!Pass"
|
||||
// Rejected: "password", "Password1", "MySecure123"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Missing Brute Force Protection
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Vulnerable)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
router.post("/login", validators.login, handleValidationErrors, async (req, res) => {
|
||||
const { email, password } = req.body;
|
||||
const admin = await getUserByEmail(email);
|
||||
|
||||
if (!admin || !await bcrypt.compare(password, admin.passwordhash)) {
|
||||
return sendUnauthorized(res, "Invalid credentials");
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// No limit on attempts! Attacker can try unlimited passwords
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Protected)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const {
|
||||
recordFailedAttempt,
|
||||
resetFailedAttempts,
|
||||
checkBlocked,
|
||||
} = require("../middleware/bruteForceProtection");
|
||||
|
||||
router.post(
|
||||
"/login",
|
||||
checkBlocked, // ← Check if IP is blocked
|
||||
validators.login,
|
||||
handleValidationErrors,
|
||||
async (req, res) => {
|
||||
const { email, password } = req.body;
|
||||
const ip = req.ip || req.connection.remoteAddress;
|
||||
const admin = await getUserByEmail(email);
|
||||
|
||||
if (!admin) {
|
||||
recordFailedAttempt(ip); // ← Track failure
|
||||
return sendUnauthorized(res, "Invalid email or password");
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
const validPassword = await bcrypt.compare(password, admin.passwordhash);
|
||||
if (!validPassword) {
|
||||
recordFailedAttempt(ip); // ← Track failure
|
||||
return sendUnauthorized(res, "Invalid email or password");
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
resetFailedAttempts(ip); // ← Reset on success
|
||||
// ... login logic
|
||||
}
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
// Brute Force Protection Middleware:
|
||||
// - Blocks after 5 failed attempts
|
||||
// - 15-minute cooldown
|
||||
// - Automatic cleanup
|
||||
// - Per-IP tracking
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Insufficient File Upload Validation
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Vulnerable)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
fileFilter: function (req, file, cb) {
|
||||
// Only checks MIME type (can be spoofed!)
|
||||
if (!ALLOWED_MIME_TYPES.includes(file.mimetype)) {
|
||||
return cb(new Error("File type not allowed"), false);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Only checks extension (can be faked!)
|
||||
const ext = path.extname(file.originalname).toLowerCase();
|
||||
if (!allowedExtensions.includes(ext)) {
|
||||
return cb(new Error("Invalid file extension"), false);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
cb(null, true);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Attacker can rename malicious.php to malicious.jpg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Secure)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Magic bytes for validation
|
||||
const MAGIC_BYTES = {
|
||||
jpeg: [0xFF, 0xD8, 0xFF],
|
||||
png: [0x89, 0x50, 0x4E, 0x47],
|
||||
gif: [0x47, 0x49, 0x46],
|
||||
webp: [0x52, 0x49, 0x46, 0x46]
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Validate file content by checking magic bytes
|
||||
const validateFileContent = async (filePath, mimetype) => {
|
||||
const buffer = Buffer.alloc(8);
|
||||
const fd = await fs.open(filePath, 'r');
|
||||
await fd.read(buffer, 0, 8, 0);
|
||||
await fd.close();
|
||||
|
||||
// Check JPEG
|
||||
if (mimetype === 'image/jpeg') {
|
||||
return buffer[0] === 0xFF && buffer[1] === 0xD8 && buffer[2] === 0xFF;
|
||||
}
|
||||
// Check PNG
|
||||
if (mimetype === 'image/png') {
|
||||
return buffer[0] === 0x89 && buffer[1] === 0x50 &&
|
||||
buffer[2] === 0x4E && buffer[3] === 0x47;
|
||||
}
|
||||
// ... other formats
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// In upload handler:
|
||||
for (const file of req.files) {
|
||||
const isValid = await validateFileContent(file.path, file.mimetype);
|
||||
if (!isValid) {
|
||||
// Delete invalid file and reject
|
||||
await fs.unlink(file.path);
|
||||
return res.status(400).json({
|
||||
success: false,
|
||||
message: `File ${file.originalname} failed security validation`,
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Now validates actual file content, not just metadata
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 5. Missing Rate Limiting
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Vulnerable)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const router = express.Router();
|
||||
|
||||
router.use(requireAuth);
|
||||
router.use(requireRole("role-admin"));
|
||||
|
||||
// No rate limiting! Attacker can spam requests
|
||||
router.get("/products", async (req, res) => { /* ... */ });
|
||||
router.post("/products", async (req, res) => { /* ... */ });
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Protected)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const { apiLimiter } = require("../config/rateLimiter");
|
||||
const router = express.Router();
|
||||
|
||||
// Apply rate limiting to all routes
|
||||
router.use(apiLimiter); // ← Added
|
||||
|
||||
router.use(requireAuth);
|
||||
router.use(requireRole("role-admin"));
|
||||
|
||||
// Now limited to 100 requests per 15 minutes per IP
|
||||
router.get("/products", async (req, res) => { /* ... */ });
|
||||
router.post("/products", async (req, res) => { /* ... */ });
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 6. Weak Session Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Insecure)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
app.use(
|
||||
session({
|
||||
secret: process.env.SESSION_SECRET || "change-this-secret", // Weak!
|
||||
cookie: {
|
||||
secure: !isDevelopment(),
|
||||
httpOnly: true,
|
||||
maxAge: SESSION_CONFIG.COOKIE_MAX_AGE,
|
||||
sameSite: "lax", // Not strict enough
|
||||
},
|
||||
// Missing rolling sessions
|
||||
})
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Secure)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
app.use(
|
||||
session({
|
||||
secret: process.env.SESSION_SECRET || "change-this-secret",
|
||||
cookie: {
|
||||
secure: !isDevelopment(),
|
||||
httpOnly: true,
|
||||
maxAge: SESSION_CONFIG.COOKIE_MAX_AGE,
|
||||
sameSite: isDevelopment() ? "lax" : "strict", // ← Strict in production
|
||||
},
|
||||
rolling: true, // ← Reset expiration on each request
|
||||
})
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
// .env configuration:
|
||||
// SESSION_SECRET=<64-character-hex-string> (cryptographically random)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 7. Missing Security Headers
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Limited)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
app.use(
|
||||
helmet({
|
||||
contentSecurityPolicy: { /* ... */ },
|
||||
hsts: { maxAge: 31536000 }
|
||||
})
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
// Missing: XSS protection, frame options, nosniff, referrer policy
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Comprehensive)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
app.use(
|
||||
helmet({
|
||||
contentSecurityPolicy: {
|
||||
directives: {
|
||||
defaultSrc: ["'self'"],
|
||||
objectSrc: ["'none'"], // ← Prevent Flash/plugin exploits
|
||||
upgradeInsecureRequests: !isDevelopment() ? [] : null, // ← HTTPS enforcement
|
||||
// ... other directives
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
hsts: {
|
||||
maxAge: 31536000,
|
||||
includeSubDomains: true,
|
||||
preload: true,
|
||||
},
|
||||
frameguard: { action: "deny" }, // ← Prevent clickjacking
|
||||
xssFilter: true, // ← Enable XSS filter
|
||||
noSniff: true, // ← Prevent MIME sniffing
|
||||
referrerPolicy: { policy: "strict-origin-when-cross-origin" }, // ← Privacy
|
||||
})
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
// Response headers now include:
|
||||
// X-Frame-Options: DENY
|
||||
// X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
|
||||
// X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
|
||||
// Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 8. XSS Prevention
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ BEFORE (Risky)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Frontend code using innerHTML with user data
|
||||
element.innerHTML = userInput; // XSS vulnerability!
|
||||
element.innerHTML = `<div>${userName}</div>`; // XSS vulnerability!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ AFTER (Safe)
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Created sanitization utility
|
||||
const escapeHtml = (str) => {
|
||||
const htmlEscapeMap = {
|
||||
'&': '&',
|
||||
'<': '<',
|
||||
'>': '>',
|
||||
'"': '"',
|
||||
"'": ''',
|
||||
'/': '/',
|
||||
};
|
||||
return str.replace(/[&<>"'/]/g, (char) => htmlEscapeMap[char]);
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Frontend: Use textContent instead of innerHTML
|
||||
element.textContent = userInput; // ← Safe
|
||||
|
||||
// Or escape when HTML needed
|
||||
element.innerHTML = escapeHtml(userInput); // ← Safe
|
||||
|
||||
// Backend: Sanitize before storage
|
||||
const sanitizedData = {
|
||||
name: escapeHtml(req.body.name),
|
||||
description: escapeHtml(req.body.description)
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Your Security Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
### Test SQL Injection Protection
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Should throw error, not execute
|
||||
curl -X GET "http://localhost:5000/api/admin/products"
|
||||
# Works fine
|
||||
|
||||
curl -X GET "http://localhost:5000/api/admin/users; DROP TABLE users;--"
|
||||
# Should fail with validation error
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Brute Force Protection
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Run 6 times - 6th attempt should be blocked
|
||||
for i in {1..6}; do
|
||||
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/auth/login \
|
||||
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||
-d '{"email":"test@test.com","password":"wrong"}'
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
# Expected: "Too many failed attempts. Please try again in 15 minutes."
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Password Validation
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Should reject weak password
|
||||
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/users \
|
||||
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||
-d '{"email":"test@test.com","username":"testuser","password":"weak"}'
|
||||
|
||||
# Expected: "Password must be at least 12 characters with..."
|
||||
|
||||
# Should accept strong password
|
||||
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/users \
|
||||
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||
-d '{"email":"test@test.com","username":"testuser","password":"MyStrong123!Pass"}'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Test File Upload Security
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Create fake image
|
||||
echo "This is not a real image" > fake.jpg
|
||||
|
||||
# Try to upload
|
||||
curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/upload/upload \
|
||||
-H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" \
|
||||
-F "files=@fake.jpg"
|
||||
|
||||
# Expected: "File failed security validation"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Rate Limiting
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Send 101 requests quickly
|
||||
for i in {1..101}; do
|
||||
curl http://localhost:5000/api/admin/products
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
# Expected: 429 Too Many Requests on 101st request
|
||||
```
|
||||
