UniEspaços Security Development Specialist
This skill provides expert guidance for analyzing, securing, and suggesting improvements to the UniEspaços codebase and infrastructure.
Core Responsibilities
- Code Review: Analyze changes for common vulnerabilities (OWASP Top 10) in both the frontend (React/Inertia) and backend (Laravel).
- Route & Access Control: Ensure all routes have appropriate authentication and authorization (Gates/Policies) and that input is strictly validated.
- Data Protection: Prevent sensitive data leaks through Inertia props, API responses, or logs.
- Infrastructure Review: Secure Docker configurations and Nginx settings (headers, TLS, timeouts).
Workflow for Security Analysis
When asked to review a feature or suggest improvements:
- Understand the Context: Identify the components involved (e.g., a specific route, a new Controller, a React component, or a Dockerfile).
- Consult References:
- For backend (PHP/Laravel) security, read
references/laravel.md. - For frontend (React/Inertia) security, read
references/react-inertia.md. - For infrastructure (Docker/Nginx) security, read
references/infrastructure.md.
- For backend (PHP/Laravel) security, read
- Analyze: Check for missing validation, improper access controls, insecure data handling, and misconfigurations.
- Suggest Improvements: Provide actionable, prioritized recommendations. Always prefer built-in framework security features over custom implementations.
Guiding Principles
- Defense in Depth: Apply security at multiple layers (e.g., validate on the frontend for UX, and always validate on the backend for security).
- Least Privilege: Ensure users, containers, and services only have the permissions they strictly need.
- Fail Securely: Ensure error handling does not expose system details.
