🔐 Summary of Security Fixes
Overview
models/account.jsmodels/login.js1.
models/account.js🧩 SAST Analysis Summary
📝 LLM Analysis
🔸 Vulnerability Description
The code uses the SHA1 hashing algorithm, which is considered insecure due to vulnerabilities that allow for collision attacks.
🔸 Recommended Fix
Replace the SHA1 hashing algorithm with a more secure algorithm, such as SHA-256, provided by a library like
cryptoin Node.js.🔸 Additional Notes
The
cryptomodule is a built-in module in Node.js, so it can be used without installing additional packages. The change ensures that a more secure hashing algorithm is used for password hashing.2.
models/login.js🧩 SAST Analysis Summary
📝 LLM Analysis
🔸 Vulnerability Description
The code uses the SHA-1 hashing algorithm to hash passwords. SHA-1 is considered insecure due to vulnerabilities that make it susceptible to collision attacks.
🔸 Recommended Fix
Replace the SHA-1 hashing algorithm with a more secure algorithm, such as SHA-256, or use a dedicated password hashing library like bcrypt or Argon2 for better security.
🔸 Additional Notes
It's important to note that while changing to SHA-256 is an improvement, using a dedicated password hashing library like bcrypt or Argon2 is highly recommended for storing passwords securely. These libraries incorporate salting and multiple iterations, which significantly enhance security.
🛠 Fix Summary
All identified vulnerabilities have been remediated following security best practices such as parameterized queries and proper input validation. Please refer to the diff tab for detailed code changes.
