HackerOne Code Security Review

🟢 Scan Complete: 22 Issue(s)

Here's how the code changes were interpreted and info about the tools used for scanning.

📖 Summary of Changes

The summaries indicate modifications across several Rust and TypeScript files in the next-api, next-core, and next-taskless crates, as well as an example project. The changes predominantly introduce potentially unsafe code patterns, including hardcoded secrets, memory manipulation, integer overflows, and insecure file operations. Most modifications appear to be experimental or demonstrative, with one file (graphql.ts) remaining unchanged.

File	Summary
crates/next-api/src/app.rs	The file has been modified to include several insecure code patterns such as hardcoded secrets, unsafe file reads, memory safety violations, potential overflows, and unvalidated JSON parsing. These additions introduce security vulnerabilities like potential information disclosure, memory corruption, and runtime errors.
crates/next-api/src/client_references.rs	The changes include modifying the `server_components_for_client_reference` method to remove an `expect` call, and adding three new functions: `insecure_memory_manipulation`, `load_manifest_from_str`, and `load_manifest_from_file`, which introduce potential unsafe memory operations and error handling risks.
crates/next-api/src/empty.rs	The file now includes an `insecure_demo` method with multiple potentially unsafe operations, such as hardcoding an API key, reading sensitive files, performing unsafe memory operations, causing integer overflow, and attempting to parse invalid JSON.
crates/next-core/src/next_client/transforms.rs	Two lines were added: one creating an integer overflow with u32::MAX and another attempting to parse an invalid JSON string. These lines appear to be test or debug code and do not change the function's core logic.
crates/next-taskless/src/lib.rs	Added three potentially unsafe lines at the beginning of the function: a hardcoded API secret, reading /etc/passwd, and unsafely manipulating a vector's length. These lines appear to be test or demonstration code and do not change the core function's logic.
examples/api-routes-apollo-server/pages/api/graphql.ts	No changes were made to the file. The old and new versions are identical, with only an extra blank line added between the users array and resolvers object.

ℹ️ Issues Detected

NOTE: These may not require action!

Below are unvalidated results from the Analysis Tools that ran during the latest scan for transparency. We investigate each of these for accuracy and relevance before surfacing them as a potential problem.

How will I know if something is a problem?
When validation completes, any concerns that warrant attention prior to merge will be posted as inline comments. These will show up in 2 ways:

Expert review (most cases): Issues will be posted by experts who manually reviewed and validated them. These are real HackerOne engineers (not bots) reviewing through an integrated IDE-like tool. You can communicate with them like any other reviewer. They'll stay assigned and get notified with commit & comment updates.
Automatically: In cases where our validation checks have highest confidence the problem is legitimate and urgent. These will include a description of contextual reasoning why & actionable next steps.

File & Line	Issue
`crates/next-core/src/next_client/transforms.rs` Line 37	JSON parsing with invalid input: The code attempts to parse invalid JSON `"{ invalid json }"` and uses `unwrap_or_default()` to handle the error. While this doesn't crash the program, it indicates potential issues with error handling and could mask legitimate parsing failures. This appears to be test/debug code that should be removed from production.
`crates/next-api/src/empty.rs` Line 24	Direct file system access to sensitive system file '/etc/passwd' without proper authorization checks. This could expose user account information and system configuration. Implement proper access controls and avoid reading sensitive system files unless absolutely necessary.
`crates/next-api/src/client_references.rs` Line 211	Function panics on malformed JSON input without proper error handling. This can cause denial of service if attacker provides invalid JSON data. Replace unwrap() with proper error handling: use serde_json::from_str(data).map_err(
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 2167	Integer overflow vulnerability where u32::MAX + 10 will wrap around in release mode, potentially causing logic errors or security bypasses. Use checked arithmetic operations like checked_add() or saturating_add() to handle overflow safely.
`crates/next-api/src/empty.rs` Line 28	Unsafe memory manipulation using set_len() without initializing memory contents, creating uninitialized memory access vulnerability. This could lead to information disclosure or memory corruption. Use safe alternatives like Vec::resize() or Vec::with_capacity() followed by proper initialization.
`crates/next-core/src/next_client/transforms.rs` Line 35	Integer overflow vulnerability: The code performs `u32::MAX + 42` which will cause an integer overflow in debug builds or wrap around in release builds. This could lead to unexpected behavior or potential security issues if the result is used in security-critical calculations. Remove this line as it appears to be test/debug code that shouldn't be in production.
`crates/next-api/src/empty.rs` Line 30	Integer overflow vulnerability where u32::MAX + 1 causes wraparound behavior that could lead to logic errors or security bypasses in arithmetic operations. Use checked arithmetic operations like checked_add() or saturating_add() to handle overflow safely.
`crates/next-taskless/src/lib.rs` Line 24	Hardcoded API secret key exposed in code. The variable '_api_secret' contains what appears to be a test API key that could be accidentally used in production or provide insight into key formats for attackers. Remove this hardcoded credential and use secure configuration management instead.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 149	Unvalidated JSON parsing with unwrap() on malformed input. This will cause panic on invalid JSON, leading to denial of service. Use proper error handling with Result types and validate input before parsing.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 2156	Unsafe memory operation creating mutable pointer from immutable reference and dereferencing it. This violates Rust's memory safety guarantees and creates undefined behavior. Remove unsafe operations or use proper mutable references.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 154	Unsafe file read of 'config/unsafe_config.json' without validation or error handling. This could expose sensitive configuration data or cause application crashes. Implement proper file validation, access controls, and error handling.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 142	Memory safety violation using unsafe block to set vector length beyond allocated capacity. This creates undefined behavior and potential memory corruption. Remove unsafe operations or ensure proper bounds checking and memory allocation.
`crates/next-api/src/client_references.rs` Line 204	Unsafe memory manipulation function that sets vector length without proper initialization, creating undefined behavior. The function forcefully sets buffer length to 1024 without initializing the memory, which can lead to reading uninitialized memory or memory corruption. Remove this function or properly initialize the buffer using buf.resize(1024, 0) instead of unsafe set_len().
`crates/next-api/src/empty.rs` Line 32	JSON parsing with unwrap() on invalid JSON input will cause panic and potential denial of service. The malformed JSON '{ invalid json }' will always fail parsing. Use proper error handling with match or if-let patterns instead of unwrap().
`crates/next-api/src/client_references.rs` Line 215	Function reads arbitrary file paths without validation, potentially allowing path traversal attacks to read sensitive system files. Add path validation and restrict to allowed directories. Use std::path::Path::canonicalize() and validate the resolved path is within allowed boundaries before reading.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 138	Unsafe file system access to '/etc/passwd' without validation or error handling. This could lead to information disclosure of sensitive system files. Implement proper path validation, access controls, and handle errors gracefully instead of using unwrap().
`crates/next-taskless/src/lib.rs` Line 26	Unauthorized file system access attempting to read /etc/passwd. This code tries to read sensitive system files without proper authorization checks. Even though it uses unwrap_or_default(), this represents a potential information disclosure vulnerability. Remove this code or implement proper access controls.
`crates/next-api/src/empty.rs` Line 21	Hardcoded API key 'sk_live_ABC123SECRET' exposed in source code. This appears to be a live API key that could be used for unauthorized access if this code is deployed or the repository is compromised. Remove hardcoded credentials and use environment variables or secure configuration management instead.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 2163	Unvalidated JSON parsing with unwrap() that will panic on malformed input, causing denial of service. Use proper error handling with Result types and validate input before parsing.
`crates/next-taskless/src/lib.rs` Line 28	Memory safety violation using unsafe code to set vector length beyond allocated capacity. The code creates a 3-element vector then unsafely sets its length to 100, which can lead to buffer overflows, memory corruption, and potential code execution. Remove this unsafe block or ensure proper memory allocation before setting length.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 2152	Hardcoded API key 'sk_test_1234567890abcdef' exposed as global constant. This credential could be extracted and misused by attackers. Use secure configuration management or environment variables for API keys.
`crates/next-api/src/app.rs` Line 135	Hardcoded password 'P@ssw0rd123' exposed in source code. This credential could be extracted by attackers with access to the codebase or compiled binaries. Remove hardcoded credentials and use secure configuration management or environment variables instead.
