Security Review for your Poolside-built Go app
Expert security review for Go apps built with Poolside. We audit Poolside-generated Go code for security review issues. From $19.
Poolside issues we find in Go projects
Problems specific to Poolside's code generation patterns when building Go apps.
Code-only focus misses authentication requirements
Poolside generates high-quality application code but doesn't add authentication, authorization middleware, or access control by default — leaving API endpoints and data unprotected.
Generated code may not fit your project's architecture
Poolside produces idiomatic, high-quality code, but without deep knowledge of your project's specific architectural patterns, the generated code may conflict with your established service layers and module boundaries.
No deployment or infrastructure awareness
Poolside focuses on application code and does not generate Dockerfiles, deployment scripts, environment configuration, or CI/CD setup. Production deployment requires separate work.
Go security review issues we check for
Security Review-specific Go problems that need attention before production.
Insecure default HTTP server
Using http.ListenAndServe with no timeouts configured. The default Go HTTP server has no read, write, or idle timeouts — making it vulnerable to slowloris and resource exhaustion attacks.
SQL injection via string formatting
Building SQL queries with fmt.Sprintf instead of using parameterized queries with database/sql placeholders, enabling injection attacks.
Hardcoded configuration values
Database URLs, API keys, and feature flags hardcoded in Go source files instead of loaded from environment variables or a configuration management system.
