Security Review for your Codex CLI-built Node.js app
Expert security review for Node.js apps built with Codex CLI. We audit Codex CLI-generated Node.js code for security review issues. From $19.
Codex CLI issues we find in Node.js projects
Problems specific to Codex CLI's code generation patterns when building Node.js apps.
API keys and secrets written directly into generated source files
Codex CLI generates code with placeholder credentials that developers often replace with real values inline, leaving secrets committed to version control. There is no .env scaffolding or secret management setup by default.
No authentication or authorization on generated API endpoints
When Codex generates Express or FastAPI backends, routes are created without middleware for authentication, meaning every endpoint is publicly accessible immediately after deployment.
Single-file output breaks apart for any real project structure
Codex frequently outputs all logic into one or two files rather than organizing code into modules, services, and utilities — making the result hard to maintain and extend as the codebase grows.
Node.js security review issues we check for
Security Review-specific Node.js problems that need attention before production.
No input validation
Request bodies and query parameters accepted without validation, enabling injection attacks and unexpected data types.
Missing rate limiting
No rate limiting on auth endpoints, API routes, or resource-intensive operations, enabling brute-force and DoS attacks.
SQL/NoSQL injection
String concatenation in database queries instead of parameterized queries or ORM methods.
