Security Review for your Bolt.new-built Express app
Expert security review for Express apps built with Bolt.new. We audit Bolt.new-generated Express code for security review issues. From $19.
Bolt.new issues we find in Express projects
Problems specific to Bolt.new's code generation patterns when building Express apps.
Hardcoded credentials in source
Bolt frequently embeds API keys, database URLs, and service credentials directly in source files rather than using environment variables.
No authentication or authorization
Bolt prototypes rarely include auth. Routes and API endpoints are completely unprotected, allowing anyone to access or modify data.
Incomplete error handling
Happy-path-only code that crashes on edge cases. Network failures, empty states, and invalid data cause unhandled exceptions and blank screens.
Express security review issues we check for
Security Review-specific Express problems that need attention before production.
No helmet middleware for security headers
Express apps without the helmet middleware are missing critical security headers like Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, and HSTS, leaving the app vulnerable to common web attacks.
Missing input validation and sanitization
Request body, query params, and URL params used directly without validation. No express-validator, zod, or joi — enabling injection attacks and unexpected crashes.
CORS set to allow all origins
The cors() middleware called with no options, defaulting to allowing requests from any website — a security risk for APIs that handle user data.
