DryRun Security Summary

The PR introduces a Node.js Express application with MongoDB integration that contains multiple severe security vulnerabilities, including NoSQL injection, plain text password storage, missing authentication, insecure database connections, information disclosure risks, and network exposure issues.

Expand for full summary

This PR introduces a Node.js Express application with MongoDB integration for user management, featuring a user lookup endpoint with multiple critical security vulnerabilities.

Security Vulnerabilities:

  1. NoSQL Injection Vulnerability: Direct user input passed to MongoDB query without sanitization (all files)
  2. Plain Text Password Storage: User passwords stored unencrypted in database (all files)
  3. Lack of Authentication: No access controls or authentication mechanisms (all files)
  4. Insecure Database Connection: Hardcoded local MongoDB connection without SSL/TLS or authentication (all files)
  5. Potential Information Disclosure: Detailed error messages and server logs could leak system information
  6. Network Exposure: Running on unencrypted HTTP with potential local network risks

Code Analysis

We ran 9 analyzers against 3 files and 0 analyzers had findings. 9 analyzers had no findings.

Codacy found a critical ErrorProne issue: Require statement not part of import statement.

The issue described by the ESLint linter indicates that the code is using CommonJS syntax (require) for importing modules, while it is recommended to use ES6 module syntax (import). This is a common preference in modern JavaScript development, especially when using tools like Babel or when working with ES modules in Node.js.

To fix this issue, you can change the require statement to an import statement. Here’s the code suggestion:

Suggested change
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
import mongoose from 'mongoose';

Codacy found a critical ErrorProne issue: Require statement not part of import statement.

The issue reported by ESLint indicates that the use of require is not in line with modern JavaScript practices, particularly when using ES6 modules. The linter suggests that you should use the import statement instead of require to import modules, as import is part of the ES6 module syntax which is more aligned with the current standards for JavaScript.

To resolve this issue, you can change the require statement to an import statement. Here's the suggested change:

Suggested change
const express = require('express');
import express from 'express';

This single line change will update the module import to use the ES6 syntax, addressing the ESLint warning. However, please note that if you switch to using import, you may also need to ensure that your environment supports ES modules or configure your project accordingly (e.g., using Babel or setting "type": "module" in your package.json).
