Security & Code Audit for Node.js Projects
CodeAudit.dev checks your Node.js codebase for the vulnerabilities, performance issues, and architecture problems most common to Node.js applications.
Common Node.js Issues
Example Finding
Missing Rate Limiting on Login Route
The authentication endpoint allows unlimited login attempts. This exposes the application to brute-force and credential-stuffing attacks.
Implement rate limiting using a middleware like express-rate-limit to restrict the number of failed attempts per IP address.
Why Node.js Needs Specialized Checks
Node.js is highly scalable, but its single-threaded nature means a single blocking operation can take down your entire service. Furthermore, building APIs requires rigorous input validation and secure configurations. CodeAudit inspects your Node.js code for event loop blockers, missing security headers, authentication flaws, and dependency vulnerabilities to keep your backend resilient.
Frequently Asked Questions
QDo you support Express, NestJS, and Fastify?
AYes, CodeAudit recognizes the patterns and middlewares associated with all major Node.js frameworks.
QCan it detect blocking synchronous operations?
AYes. We scan for synchronous filesystem or crypto operations that should be asynchronous to prevent event loop blocking.
