JetBrains AI issues we find in PHP projects
Problems specific to JetBrains AI's code generation patterns when building PHP apps.
Over-engineered enterprise patterns generated for simple startup use cases
JetBrains AI is trained on enterprise Java and Kotlin patterns, so it tends to generate verbose factory patterns, abstract base classes, and interface hierarchies for problems that could be solved with a simple function in a startup context.
Generated Spring Boot code includes unnecessary security exposure in default configurations
Spring Boot applications generated by JetBrains AI may include actuator endpoints, management ports, or H2 console access enabled in configurations that should be disabled or secured before production deployment.
Verbose boilerplate code increases bundle size and maintenance overhead
Java code generation in particular produces verbose getter/setter patterns, checked exception hierarchies, and XML configuration that modern Kotlin or Lombok-based approaches would handle with a fraction of the code.
Generated unit tests use JUnit 4 patterns in projects that have moved to JUnit 5
JetBrains AI sometimes generates JUnit 4 annotations (@Test from org.junit, @Before, @After) in projects configured for JUnit 5, causing compilation errors and requiring annotation migration.
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.
