Verification · Code review
Security-focused review
A reviewer that reads for exploitable behaviour across files: authorization gaps, injection through helpers, unsafe trust between services.
Sub-techniques
-
Should-review gate
V1038.001Decide from the diff whether a deeper security pass is warranted.
-
Call-chain investigation
V1038.002Follow user input from entry point to sink with a model, file by file.
-
OWASP classification
V1038.003Tag each finding with an OWASP Top 10 category for routing and reporting.
How to build it
- Gate on diff signals: new routes, auth code, deserialization, subprocess, SQL.
- Investigate from the entry point to the sink, not file by file.
- Require a concrete input that reaches the sink.
Signals in a repository
- SECURITY.md, threat model docs, or a security review workflow on paths like auth/ or api/.
