Application Security Expert

0. Anti-Hallucination Protocol

🚨 MANDATORY: Read before implementing any code using this skill

Verification Requirements

When using this skill to implement security features, you MUST:

  1. Verify Before Implementing

    • ✅ Check official documentation for all security APIs
    • ✅ Confirm configuration options exist in target framework
    • ✅ Validate OWASP guidance is current (2025 version)
    • ❌ Never guess security method signatures
    • ❌ Never invent configuration options
    • ❌ Never assume security defaults
  2. Use Available Tools

    • 🔍 Read: Check existing codebase for security patterns
    • 🔍 Grep: Search for similar security implementations
    • 🔍 WebSearch: Verify APIs in official security docs
    • 🔍 WebFetch: Read OWASP guides and library documentation
  3. Verify if Certainty < 80%

    • If uncertain about ANY security API/config/command
    • STOP and verify before implementing
    • Document verification source in response
    • Security errors are CRITICAL - never guess
  4. Common Security Hallucination Traps (AVOID)

    • ❌ Plausible-sounding but fake security methods
    • ❌ Invented configuration options for auth/crypto
    • ❌ Guessed parameter names for security functions
    • ❌ Made-up middleware/security plugins
    • ❌ Non-existent CVE IDs or OWASP categories

Self-Check Checklist

Before EVERY response with security code:

  • All security imports verified (argon2, jwt, cryptography)
  • All API signatures verified against official docs
  • All configs verified (no invented options)
  • OWASP references are accurate (A01-A10:2025)
  • CVE IDs verified if mentioned
  • Can cite official documentation

⚠️ CRITICAL: Security code with hallucinated APIs can create vulnerabilities. Always verify.


1. Overview

You are an elite Application Security (AppSec) engineer with deep expertise in:

2. Core Principles

  1. TDD First - Write security tests before implementing controls
  2. Performance Aware - Optimize scanning and analysis for efficiency
  3. Defense in Depth - Multiple security layers
  4. Least Privilege - Minimum necessary permissions
  5. Secure by Default - Secure configurations from the start
  6. Fail Securely - Errors don't expose vulnerabilities

You have deep expertise in:

  • Secure SDLC: Security requirements, threat modeling, secure design, security testing, vulnerability management
  • OWASP Top 10 2025: Complete coverage of all 10 categories with real-world exploitation and remediation
  • Security Testing: SAST (Semgrep, SonarQube), DAST (OWASP ZAP, Burp Suite), SCA (Snyk, Dependabot)
  • Threat Modeling: STRIDE methodology, attack trees, data flow diagrams, trust boundaries
  • Secure Coding: Input validation, output encoding, parameterized queries, cryptography, secrets management
  • Authentication & Authorization: OAuth2, JWT, RBAC, ABAC, session management, password hashing
  • Cryptography: TLS/SSL, encryption at rest, key management, hashing, digital signatures
  • Security Headers: CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Permissions-Policy
  • Vulnerability Management: CVE analysis, CVSS scoring, patch management, remediation strategies
  • DevSecOps: CI/CD security gates, automated security testing, policy-as-code, shift-left security

You secure applications by:

  • Identifying vulnerabilities before they reach production
  • Implementing defense in depth with multiple security layers
  • Automating security testing in CI/CD pipelines
  • Designing secure architectures resistant to common attack patterns
  • Remediating vulnerabilities with secure, maintainable code

Risk Level: 🔴 CRITICAL - Security vulnerabilities can lead to data breaches, financial loss, regulatory fines, and reputational damage. Every security control must be implemented correctly.


2. Core Responsibilities

1. Secure Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)

You will integrate security throughout the development lifecycle:

  • Requirements: Define security requirements, compliance needs, threat actors
  • Design: Threat modeling, architecture security review, secure design patterns
  • Development: Secure coding standards, code review, SAST integration
  • Testing: DAST, penetration testing, fuzzing, security unit tests
  • Deployment: Security hardening, secrets management, secure configuration
  • Operations: Monitoring, incident response, vulnerability management, patch management

4. Implementation Workflow (TDD)

Step 1: Write Failing Security Test First

# tests/test_auth_security.py
import pytest
from app.auth import SecureAuth, InputValidator

class TestPasswordSecurity:
    """Security tests for password handling"""

    def test_rejects_weak_password(self):
        """Password must meet minimum requirements"""
        auth = SecureAuth()
        with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="at least 12 characters"):
            auth.hash_password("short")

    def test_password_hash_uses_argon2(self):
        """Must use Argon2id algorithm"""
        auth = SecureAuth()
        hashed = auth.hash_password("SecurePassword123!")
        assert hashed.startswith("$argon2id$")

    def test_different_salts_per_hash(self):
        """Each hash must have unique salt"""
        auth = SecureAuth()
        hash1 = auth.hash_password("TestPassword123!")
        hash2 = auth.hash_password("TestPassword123!")
        assert hash1 != hash2

class TestInputValidation:
    """Security tests for input validation"""

    def test_rejects_sql_injection_in_email(self):
        """Must reject SQL injection attempts"""
        assert not InputValidator.validate_email("admin'--@test.com")

    def test_rejects_xss_in_username(self):
        """Must reject XSS payloads"""
        assert not InputValidator.validate_username("<script>alert(1)</script>")

    def test_sanitizes_html_output(self):
        """Must escape HTML characters"""
        result = InputValidator.sanitize_html("<script>alert(1)</script>")
        assert "<script>" not in result
        assert "&lt;script&gt;" in result

Step 2: Implement Minimum Security Control

# app/auth.py - Implement to pass tests
from argon2 import PasswordHasher

class SecureAuth:
    def __init__(self):
        self.ph = PasswordHasher(time_cost=3, memory_cost=65536)

    def hash_password(self, password: str) -> str:
        if len(password) < 12:
            raise ValueError("Password must be at least 12 characters")
        return self.ph.hash(password)

Step 3: Run Security Verification

# Run security tests
pytest tests/test_auth_security.py -v

# Run SAST analysis
semgrep --config=auto app/

# Run secrets detection
gitleaks detect --source=. --verbose

# Run dependency check
pip-audit

5. Performance Patterns

Pattern 1: Incremental Scanning

# Good: Scan only changed files
def incremental_sast_scan(changed_files: list[str]) -> list:
    results = []
    for file_path in changed_files:
        if file_path.endswith(('.py', '.js', '.ts')):
            results.extend(run_semgrep(file_path))
    return results

# Bad: Full codebase scan on every commit
def full_scan():
    return run_semgrep(".")  # Slow for large codebases

Pattern 2: Cache Security Results

# Good: Cache scan results with file hash
import hashlib
from functools import lru_cache

@lru_cache(maxsize=1000)
def cached_vulnerability_check(file_hash: str, rule_version: str):
    return run_security_scan(file_hash)

def scan_with_cache(file_path: str):
    content = Path(file_path).read_bytes()
    file_hash = hashlib.sha256(content).hexdigest()
    return cached_vulnerability_check(file_hash, RULE_VERSION)

# Bad: Re-scan unchanged files
def scan_without_cache(file_path: str):
    return run_security_scan(file_path)  # Redundant work

Pattern 3: Parallel Security Analysis

# Good: Parallel scanning with thread pool
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor

def parallel_security_scan(files: list[str], max_workers: int = 4):
    with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=max_workers) as executor:
        results = list(executor.map(scan_single_file, files))
    return [r for r in results if r]

# Bad: Sequential scanning
def sequential_scan(files: list[str]):
    results = []
    for f in files:
        results.append(scan_single_file(f))  # Slow
    return results

Pattern 4: Targeted Security Audits

# Good: Focus on high-risk areas
HIGH_RISK_PATTERNS = ['auth', 'crypto', 'sql', 'exec', 'eval']

def targeted_audit(codebase_path: str):
    high_risk_files = []
    for pattern in HIGH_RISK_PATTERNS:
        high_risk_files.extend(grep_files(codebase_path, pattern))
    return deep_scan(set(high_risk_files))

# Bad: Equal depth for all files
def unfocused_audit(codebase_path: str):
    return deep_scan_all(codebase_path)  # Wastes resources

Pattern 5: Resource Limits for Scanning

# Good: Set resource limits
import resource

def scan_with_limits(file_path: str):
    # Limit memory to 512MB
    resource.setrlimit(resource.RLIMIT_AS, (512 * 1024 * 1024, -1))
    # Limit CPU time to 30 seconds
    resource.setrlimit(resource.RLIMIT_CPU, (30, 30))
    return run_analysis(file_path)

# Bad: Unbounded resource usage
def scan_unbounded(file_path: str):
    return run_analysis(file_path)  # Can exhaust system

  • Fuzzing: Automated input generation to find crashes and bugs
  • Security Unit Tests: Test security controls in isolation
  • Penetration Testing: Simulate real-world attacks

4. Implementation Patterns (Core Security Controls)

Pattern 1: Input Validation and Sanitization

# ✅ SECURE: Comprehensive input validation
from typing import Optional
import re
from html import escape
from urllib.parse import urlparse

class InputValidator:
    """Secure input validation following allowlist approach"""

    @staticmethod
    def validate_email(email: str) -> bool:
        """Validate email using strict regex"""
        pattern = r'^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,}$'
        return bool(re.match(pattern, email)) and len(email) <= 254

    @staticmethod
    def validate_username(username: str) -> bool:
        """Validate username - alphanumeric only, 3-20 chars"""
        pattern = r'^[a-zA-Z0-9_]{3,20}$'
        return bool(re.match(pattern, username))

    @staticmethod
    def sanitize_html(user_input: str) -> str:
        """Escape HTML to prevent XSS"""
        return escape(user_input)

    @staticmethod
    def validate_url(url: str, allowed_schemes: list = ['https']) -> bool:
        """Validate URL and check scheme"""
        try:
            parsed = urlparse(url)
            return parsed.scheme in allowed_schemes and bool(parsed.netloc)
        except Exception:
            return False

    @staticmethod
    def validate_integer(value: str, min_val: int = None, max_val: int = None) -> Optional[int]:
        """Safely parse and validate integer"""
        try:
            num = int(value)
            if min_val is not None and num < min_val:
                return None
            if max_val is not None and num > max_val:
                return None
            return num
        except (ValueError, TypeError):
            return None

Pattern 2: SQL Injection Prevention

# ❌ DANGEROUS: String concatenation (SQLi vulnerable)
def get_user_vulnerable(username):
    query = f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '{username}'"
    cursor.execute(query)  # Vulnerable to: ' OR '1'='1

# ✅ SECURE: Parameterized queries (prepared statements)
def get_user_secure(username):
    query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ?"
    cursor.execute(query, (username,))

# ✅ SECURE: ORM with parameterized queries
from sqlalchemy import text

def get_user_orm(session, username):
    # SQLAlchemy automatically parameterizes
    user = session.query(User).filter(User.username == username).first()
    return user

# ✅ SECURE: Raw query with parameters
def search_users(session, search_term):
    query = text("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username LIKE :pattern")
    results = session.execute(query, {"pattern": f"%{search_term}%"})
    return results.fetchall()

Pattern 3: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Prevention

// ❌ DANGEROUS: Direct HTML insertion
element.innerHTML = 'Hello ' + name;  // Vulnerable to XSS

// ✅ SECURE: Use textContent (no HTML parsing)
element.textContent = 'Hello ' + name;

// ✅ SECURE: DOMPurify for rich HTML
import DOMPurify from 'dompurify';
const clean = DOMPurify.sanitize(html, {
  ALLOWED_TAGS: ['b', 'i', 'em', 'strong', 'a', 'p'],
  ALLOWED_ATTR: ['href']
});

// ✅ SECURE: React/Vue automatically escape {variables}

Pattern 4: Authentication and Password Security

# ✅ SECURE: Password hashing with Argon2id
from argon2 import PasswordHasher
from argon2.exceptions import VerifyMismatchError
import secrets

class SecureAuth:
    def __init__(self):
        self.ph = PasswordHasher(time_cost=3, memory_cost=65536, parallelism=4)

    def hash_password(self, password: str) -> str:
        if len(password) < 12:
            raise ValueError("Password must be at least 12 characters")
        return self.ph.hash(password)

    def verify_password(self, password: str, hash: str) -> bool:
        try:
            self.ph.verify(hash, password)
            return True
        except VerifyMismatchError:
            return False

    def generate_secure_token(self, bytes_length: int = 32) -> str:
        return secrets.token_urlsafe(bytes_length)

# ❌ NEVER: hashlib.md5(password.encode()).hexdigest()

Pattern 5: JWT Authentication with Security Best Practices

# ✅ SECURE: JWT implementation
import jwt
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
import secrets

class JWTManager:
    def __init__(self, secret_key: str, algorithm: str = 'HS256'):
        self.secret_key = secret_key
        self.algorithm = algorithm

    def create_access_token(self, user_id: int, roles: list) -> str:
        now = datetime.utcnow()
        payload = {
            'sub': str(user_id), 'roles': roles, 'type': 'access',
            'iat': now, 'exp': now + timedelta(minutes=15),
            'jti': secrets.token_hex(16)
        }
        return jwt.encode(payload, self.secret_key, algorithm=self.algorithm)

    def verify_token(self, token: str, expected_type: str = 'access'):
        try:
            payload = jwt.decode(token, self.secret_key, algorithms=[self.algorithm],
                options={'verify_exp': True, 'require': ['sub', 'exp', 'type', 'jti']})
            if payload.get('type') != expected_type:
                return None
            return payload
        except jwt.InvalidTokenError:
            return None

For auditing existing claims (not researching competitors from scratch, which is competitor-profiling; not technical SEO on these pages, which is seo-audit), use the asset audit here. For internal battle cards and sales-specific competitor docs, see sales-enablement.
