Security Review for your GPT Engineer-built Express app
Expert security review for Express apps built with GPT Engineer. We audit GPT Engineer-generated Express code for security review issues. From $19.
GPT Engineer issues we find in Express projects
Problems specific to GPT Engineer's code generation patterns when building Express apps.
No authentication system
GPT Engineer generates functional UIs but typically skips authentication entirely. All routes and data are publicly accessible.
Direct database access from client
Some generated apps query databases directly from the frontend without an API layer, exposing database credentials and structure.
Incomplete feature implementations
Features that look complete in the UI but don't actually work end-to-end. Buttons that don't submit, forms that don't save, and links that go nowhere.
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.
