PHP app built with Claude Code? Let’s review it.
Expert code review for PHP apps built with Claude Code. We find Claude Code-specific bugs, fix PHP security issues, and optimize performance. From $19.
Claude Code issues we find in PHP projects
Problems specific to Claude Code's code generation patterns when building PHP apps.
Over-permissive CORS configuration
Claude Code sometimes sets CORS to allow all origins during development and forgets to restrict it for production, allowing any website to make API requests.
Missing rate limiting
API endpoints are generated without rate limiting, allowing attackers to brute-force auth endpoints or abuse expensive operations.
Over-engineered abstractions
Claude Code creates multiple layers of abstraction, generic utilities, and design patterns for simple problems — making the code harder to understand and maintain.
Edge cases in complex logic
While Claude handles the main flow well, complex conditional logic sometimes has edge cases that produce incorrect results with unusual inputs.
PHP issues we check for
Common PHP problems that affect production readiness.
SQL injection vulnerabilities
Direct variable interpolation in SQL queries instead of prepared statements or query builders, allowing attackers to read or modify database contents.
Cross-site scripting (XSS)
User input echoed directly into HTML without htmlspecialchars() or template engine escaping, enabling script injection attacks.
Insecure file uploads
File upload handlers that only check MIME types without validating file content, allowing PHP shell uploads and remote code execution.
Deprecated function usage
AI tools generate code using deprecated functions like mysql_query, ereg, and create_function that are removed in modern PHP versions.
