Security Review for your Cursor-built FastAPI app
Expert security review for FastAPI apps built with Cursor. We audit Cursor-generated FastAPI code for security review issues. From $19.
Cursor issues we find in FastAPI projects
Problems specific to Cursor's code generation patterns when building FastAPI apps.
Exposed API keys in client code
Cursor often places sensitive keys and secrets directly in client-side components or .env files without the NEXT_PUBLIC prefix distinction, making them accessible in the browser.
Missing input validation on API routes
Server actions and API routes generated by Cursor frequently accept user input without sanitization or schema validation, opening the door to injection attacks.
Unhandled async errors
Cursor wraps code in try/catch inconsistently. Failed API calls, database queries, and file operations often crash the app silently or show raw error messages to users.
FastAPI security review issues we check for
Security Review-specific FastAPI problems that need attention before production.
Missing authentication on endpoints
API routes that handle sensitive data or actions without any auth middleware — Depends() for authentication is simply not included in the route definition.
No CORS configuration
CORSMiddleware either missing (blocking all cross-origin requests) or set to allow_origins=['*'] (allowing any website to call your API).
Missing error handling middleware
Unhandled exceptions return raw 500 errors with stack traces to clients, leaking internal code structure and potentially sensitive information.
