How to Use This Skill

When user requests security work (scan, analyze, fix, audit, check, review vulnerabilities), follow this workflow:

Step 1: Analyze Security Context

Extract key information from user request:

• Language: JavaScript, Python, Java, PHP, etc.
• Framework: Express, Django, Spring, Laravel, etc.
• Vulnerability type: SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, authentication, etc.
• Scope: Single file, directory, or full project

Step 2: Run Security Analysis

Advanced Analysis (Recommended):

# AST-based semantic analysis (90% fewer false positives)
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/ast_analyzer.py "<file>"

# Data flow analysis (tracks tainted data from sources to sinks)
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/dataflow_analyzer.py "<file>"

# CVE & dependency vulnerability scanning
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/cve_integration.py .

# Supply chain security (malicious packages, typosquatting)
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/cve_integration.py . --ecosystem npm

# Infrastructure as Code security
grep -r "publicly_accessible.*=.*true" . --include="*.tf"
grep -r "privileged:.*true" . --include="*.yaml"

Quick Pattern Scanning:

# Use search utility for specific patterns
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/search.py "sql-injection" --domain pattern
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/search.py "javascript" --domain pattern --severity critical

Step 3: Analyze Vulnerabilities by Severity

Critical (Fix immediately):

• SQL Injection
• Remote Code Execution
• Authentication Bypass
• Hardcoded Secrets

High (Fix soon):

• XSS (Cross-Site Scripting)
• CSRF
• Insecure Cryptography
• Authorization Issues

Medium (Fix in sprint):

• Missing Input Validation
• Information Disclosure
• Weak Password Policy
• Missing Security Headers

Low (Technical debt):

• Code Quality Issues
• Best Practice Violations
• Performance Concerns

Step 4: Get Fix Suggestions

ML-Based Fix Engine:

# Get intelligent fix recommendations with test generation
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/fix_engine.py \
  --type sql-injection \
  --language javascript \
  --code "db.query(\`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = \${userId}\`)"

# Output includes:
# - Fixed code with context-aware corrections
# - Detailed explanation of the fix
# - Auto-generated security test
# - Additional recommendations
# - Confidence score (0-100%)

Step 5: Apply Security Fixes

Auto-Fix with Rollback Support:

# Apply fix with automatic backup
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/autofix_engine.py apply \
  --file src/database.js \
  --line 45 \
  --type sql-injection \
  --original "db.query(\`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = \${userId}\`)" \
  --fixed "db.query('SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1', [userId])"

# Test your changes
npm test

# Rollback if needed (safe to experiment!)
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/autofix_engine.py rollback

# View fix history
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/autofix_engine.py history

Systematic Manual Fixes:

• Critical vulnerabilities first
• Add input validation - Whitelist, type checking, length limits
• Secure outputs - Escape, encode, sanitize
• Fix authentication/authorization - Strong passwords, MFA, RBAC
• Update cryptography - Modern algorithms, secure random
• Test thoroughly - Verify fixes don't break functionality
• Re-scan - Confirm all vulnerabilities are resolved

Step 6: Generate Reports

Multiple Report Formats:

# Beautiful HTML report with charts and statistics
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/reporter.py scan-results.json \
  --format html \
  --output security-report.html

# SARIF format for GitHub Code Scanning integration
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/reporter.py scan-results.json \
  --format sarif \
  --output results.sarif

# CSV for spreadsheet analysis
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/reporter.py scan-results.json \
  --format csv \
  --output vulnerabilities.csv

# JSON for CI/CD pipelines
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/reporter.py scan-results.json \
  --format json \
  --output security-report.json

Language-Specific Security Patterns

JavaScript/TypeScript

// ✅ SECURE: Parameterized query
const user = await db.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $1", [userId]);

// ❌ VULNERABLE: SQL injection
const user = await db.query(`SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ${userId}`);

// ✅ SECURE: Escape output
element.textContent = userInput;
const clean = DOMPurify.sanitize(htmlContent);

// ❌ VULNERABLE: XSS
element.innerHTML = userInput;

// ✅ SECURE: Input validation
const email = validator.isEmail(input) ? input : null;

// ❌ VULNERABLE: No validation
const email = req.body.email;

Python

# ✅ SECURE: Parameterized query
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = %s", (user_id,))

# ❌ VULNERABLE: SQL injection
cursor.execute(f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = {user_id}")

# ✅ SECURE: Password hashing
import bcrypt
hashed = bcrypt.hashpw(password.encode(), bcrypt.gensalt())

# ❌ VULNERABLE: Plain text
user.password = password

# ✅ SECURE: Safe subprocess
subprocess.run(['ls', '-la', sanitized_dir])

# ❌ VULNERABLE: Command injection
os.system(f'ls -la {user_dir}')

PHP

// ✅ SECURE: Prepared statement
$stmt = $pdo->prepare("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?");
$stmt->execute([$userId]);

// ❌ VULNERABLE: SQL injection
$result = mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = $userId");

// ✅ SECURE: Output escaping
echo htmlspecialchars($input, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');

// ❌ VULNERABLE: XSS
echo $userInput;

// ✅ SECURE: Password hashing
$hash = password_hash($password, PASSWORD_ARGON2ID);

// ❌ VULNERABLE: MD5
$hash = md5($password);

Example Workflow

User request: "Check my Express app for security vulnerabilities"

AI should:

# 1. Run security scan on the project
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/scan.py "./src" --language javascript

# 2. Analyze results by severity
# Output might show:
# CRITICAL: SQL Injection in src/controllers/user.js:45
# HIGH: XSS in src/views/profile.ejs:12
# MEDIUM: Missing rate limiting on /api/login
# LOW: Console.log contains sensitive data

# 3. Fix critical issues first
# - Review src/controllers/user.js:45
# - Replace string concatenation with parameterized query
# - Add input validation using validator library

# 4. Fix high severity issues
# - Review src/views/profile.ejs:12
# - Use <%- for HTML escaping or DOMPurify for rich content
# - Implement Content Security Policy

# 5. Fix medium severity issues
# - Install express-rate-limit middleware
# - Configure rate limiting on authentication endpoints
# - Add helmet for security headers

# 6. Fix low severity issues
# - Remove or redact sensitive console.log statements
# - Use proper logging library with log levels

# 7. Generate security report
python3 .claude/skills/vibe-security/scripts/report.py "./src"

Tips for Secure Development

• Validate all inputs - Use allowlists, not denylists
• Encode all outputs - Context-appropriate escaping
• Use parameterized queries - Never concatenate SQL
• Hash passwords properly - bcrypt, Argon2, scrypt
• Implement MFA - Add second factor authentication
• Use HTTPS everywhere - Encrypt data in transit
• Keep dependencies updated - Patch known vulnerabilities
• Follow principle of least privilege - Minimal necessary permissions
• Log security events - Monitor for attacks

10. Regular security audits - Scan before every release
