## CRITICAL Findings

### 🔴 CRITICAL-01: Server Actions Lack Authentication Validation

**Category**: Broken Access Control (OWASP A01)
**CWE**: CWE-862 (Missing Authorization)

**Issue**:
All Server Actions (`'use server'` functions) execute without verifying that the caller is authenticated. While `serverFetch` includes authentication headers, there's no explicit check preventing unauthenticated calls from being executed if the backend doesn't validate properly.

**Affected Files**:
- `/src/components/accounting/VendorManagement/actions.ts` (lines 158-211)
- `/src/components/settings/PermissionManagement/actions.ts` (lines 12-139)
- `/src/lib/permissions/actions.ts` (lines 36-58)
- **All 93 `actions.ts` files** identified by Grep

**Vulnerable Pattern**:
```typescript
// ❌ VULNERABLE: No authentication check
export async function deleteClient(id: string): Promise<ActionResult> {
  return executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/clients/${id}`,
    method: 'DELETE',
    errorMessage: '거래처 삭제에 실패했습니다.',
  });
}

// ❌ Can be called directly from client without verification
export async function deleteRole(id: number): Promise<ActionResult> {
  const result = await executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/roles/${id}`,
    method: 'DELETE',
    errorMessage: '역할 삭제에 실패했습니다.',
  });
  if (result.success) revalidatePath('/settings/permissions');
  return result;
}
```

**Attack Scenario**:
```javascript
// Attacker can call Server Actions directly from browser console
import { deleteRole } from '@/components/settings/PermissionManagement/actions';

// If backend validation is weak, this could succeed
await deleteRole(1); // Delete admin role
```

**Impact**:
- Unauthenticated users could invoke sensitive operations if backend doesn't validate tokens properly
- Defense-in-depth principle violated (frontend should also verify auth)
- IDOR possible: User A could access/modify User B's data by calling actions with different IDs

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ SECURE: Add auth check in Server Action
import { cookies } from 'next/headers';

export async function deleteRole(id: number): Promise<ActionResult> {
  // 1. Verify authentication
  const cookieStore = await cookies();
  const accessToken = cookieStore.get('access_token')?.value;
  const refreshToken = cookieStore.get('refresh_token')?.value;

  if (!accessToken && !refreshToken) {
    return {
      success: false,
      error: 'Unauthorized',
      __authError: true
    };
  }

  // 2. Optionally verify role/permissions
  // (if backend doesn't handle this properly)

  const result = await executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/roles/${id}`,
    method: 'DELETE',
    errorMessage: '역할 삭제에 실패했습니다.',
  });

  if (result.success) revalidatePath('/settings/permissions');
  return result;
}
```

**CVSS Score**: 9.1 (Critical)
**Fix Priority**: IMMEDIATE

### 🔴 CRITICAL-02: No Role/Permission Validation in Server Actions

**Category**: Broken Access Control (OWASP A01)
**CWE**: CWE-285 (Improper Authorization)

**Issue**:
Server Actions don't validate user roles/permissions before executing sensitive operations. The system relies entirely on backend validation.

**Affected Files**:
- `/src/components/settings/PermissionManagement/actions.ts` (allowAllPermissions, denyAllPermissions)
- `/src/components/settings/AccountManagement/actions.ts` (user account operations)
- `/src/components/accounting/VendorManagement/actions.ts` (vendor deletion)

**Vulnerable Code**:
```typescript
// ❌ No permission check before allowing ALL permissions
export async function allowAllPermissions(roleId: number): Promise<ActionResult<{ count: number }>> {
  return rolePermissionAction(roleId, 'allow-all', '전체 허용에 실패했습니다.');
}

// ❌ Any authenticated user could potentially call this
export async function deleteClient(id: string): Promise<ActionResult> {
  return executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/clients/${id}`,
    method: 'DELETE',
    errorMessage: '거래처 삭제에 실패했습니다.',
  });
}
```

**Attack Scenario**:
1. Regular user (non-admin) logs in
2. Discovers Server Action from browser DevTools/source maps
3. Calls `allowAllPermissions(1)` to escalate their own role
4. Calls `deleteClient('123')` to delete competitor vendor data

**Impact**:
- Privilege escalation if backend validation is weak
- Unauthorized data modification/deletion
- Compliance violations (SOC2, GDPR audit trail)

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Add role validation
import { getUserRole } from '@/lib/auth/get-user-role';

export async function allowAllPermissions(roleId: number): Promise<ActionResult<{ count: number }>> {
  // 1. Check user has admin/permission-manager role
  const userRole = await getUserRole();
  if (!userRole || !['admin', 'permission-manager'].includes(userRole)) {
    return {
      success: false,
      error: '권한이 없습니다. 관리자만 실행 가능합니다.',
    };
  }

  // 2. Log sensitive action
  console.log(`[AUDIT] ${userRole} allowing all permissions for role ${roleId}`);

  return rolePermissionAction(roleId, 'allow-all', '전체 허용에 실패했습니다.');
}
```

**CVSS Score**: 8.8 (High → Critical due to permission escalation)
**Fix Priority**: IMMEDIATE

### 🔴 CRITICAL-03: Path Traversal Risk in API Proxy

**Category**: Injection (OWASP A03)
**CWE**: CWE-22 (Path Traversal)

**Issue**:
The API proxy (`/api/proxy/[...path]/route.ts`) constructs backend URLs by joining user-supplied path segments without validation. Although Next.js encodes URL segments, there's no explicit validation against path traversal attempts.

**Affected File**: `/src/app/api/proxy/[...path]/route.ts` (line 101)

**Vulnerable Code**:
```typescript
// ❌ No validation on path segments
const backendUrl = `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL}/api/v1/${params.path.join('/')}`;
```

**Attack Scenario**:
```javascript
// Attacker attempts path traversal
fetch('/api/proxy/../../../etc/passwd');
fetch('/api/proxy/users/..%2F..%2Fadmin/secrets');
```

**Current Mitigation**:
- Next.js automatically normalizes and validates route parameters
- Segments like `..` are encoded/rejected by Next.js router
- Backend URL construction is safe *if* Next.js handles this correctly

**Recommendation** (Defense in Depth):
```typescript
// ✅ Add explicit path validation
async function proxyRequest(
  request: NextRequest,
  params: { path: string[] },
  method: string
) {
  try {
    // 1. Validate path segments
    const invalidSegments = params.path.filter(segment =>
      segment.includes('..') ||
      segment.includes('%2e%2e') ||
      segment.includes('%252e') ||
      segment.startsWith('/')
    );

    if (invalidSegments.length > 0) {
      console.warn('[SECURITY] Path traversal attempt blocked:', params.path);
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: 'Invalid path' },
        { status: 400 }
      );
    }

    // 2. Whitelist allowed API prefixes
    const allowedPrefixes = [
      'item-master',
      'clients',
      'approvals',
      'employees',
      // ... add all legitimate endpoints
    ];

    if (!allowedPrefixes.some(prefix => params.path[0] === prefix)) {
      console.warn('[SECURITY] Unauthorized endpoint access:', params.path[0]);
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: 'Endpoint not allowed' },
        { status: 403 }
      );
    }

    const backendUrl = `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL}/api/v1/${params.path.join('/')}`;
    // ... rest of proxy logic
```

**CVSS Score**: 8.6 (High → Critical if backend has filesystem access)
**Fix Priority**: HIGH

---

### 🔴 CRITICAL-04: Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) in Vendor/Client Operations

**Category**: Broken Access Control (OWASP A01)
**CWE**: CWE-639 (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key)

**Issue**:
All data access operations use user-supplied IDs without verifying ownership or authorization. Example: `getClientById(id)` doesn't check if the current user has permission to view that specific client.

**Affected Files**:
- `/src/components/accounting/VendorManagement/actions.ts`
- `/src/components/clients/actions.ts`
- Most CRUD Server Actions

**Vulnerable Code**:
```typescript
// ❌ No ownership/authorization check
export async function getClientById(id: string): Promise<Vendor | null> {
  const result = await executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/clients/${id}`,
    transform: (data: ClientApiData) => transformApiToFrontend(data),
    errorMessage: '거래처 조회에 실패했습니다.',
  });
  return result.data || null;
}
```

**Attack Scenario**:
1. User A has access to Client ID 100
2. User A discovers they can access `/clients/101/edit`
3. User A iterates through IDs to access competitors' client data
4. User A modifies/deletes Client 101 (owned by User B)

**Impact**:
- Unauthorized data access across tenants/users
- Data modification/deletion of other users' records
- GDPR violation (accessing personal data without authorization)

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Validate access before fetching
import { validateUserAccess } from '@/lib/auth/access-control';

export async function getClientById(id: string): Promise<Vendor | null> {
  // 1. Check if current user can access this client
  const canAccess = await validateUserAccess('clients', id);
  if (!canAccess) {
    console.warn(`[SECURITY] Unauthorized access attempt to client ${id}`);
    return null;
  }

  const result = await executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/clients/${id}`,
    transform: (data: ClientApiData) => transformApiToFrontend(data),
    errorMessage: '거래처 조회에 실패했습니다.',
  });
  return result.data || null;
}
```

**Note**: This assumes the backend performs proper authorization. If backend validation is weak, this is CRITICAL.

**CVSS Score**: 8.1 (High)
**Fix Priority**: HIGH

### 🔴 CRITICAL-05: No File Upload Validation in Server Actions

**Category**: Unrestricted File Upload (OWASP A04)
**CWE**: CWE-434 (Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type)

**Issue**:
The API proxy handles file uploads without validating file size, type, or content. While validation may exist on the backend, there's no frontend defense-in-depth.

**Affected File**: `/src/app/api/proxy/[...path]/route.ts` (lines 118-136)

**Vulnerable Code**:
```typescript
// ❌ No file validation
else if (contentType.includes('multipart/form-data')) {
  isFormData = true;
  const originalFormData = await request.formData();
  const newFormData = new FormData();

  for (const [key, value] of originalFormData.entries()) {
    if (value instanceof File) {
      // ❌ No size check, no type validation
      newFormData.append(key, value, value.name);
    } else {
      newFormData.append(key, value);
    }
  }
  body = newFormData;
}
```

**Attack Scenarios**:
1. **DoS via Large Files**: Upload 10GB file → exhaust server memory
2. **Malicious Extensions**: Upload `malware.exe.jpg` → backend mishandles
3. **Content-Type Mismatch**: Upload PHP shell as `image/png`

**Impact**:
- Server memory exhaustion (DoS)
- Potential code execution if backend stores files in webroot
- Storage quota exhaustion

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Add file validation
const MAX_FILE_SIZE = 50 * 1024 * 1024; // 50MB
const ALLOWED_TYPES = ['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'application/pdf', 'application/msword'];

else if (contentType.includes('multipart/form-data')) {
  isFormData = true;
  const originalFormData = await request.formData();
  const newFormData = new FormData();

  for (const [key, value] of originalFormData.entries()) {
    if (value instanceof File) {
      // 1. Size check
      if (value.size > MAX_FILE_SIZE) {
        return NextResponse.json(
          { error: `파일 크기는 ${MAX_FILE_SIZE / 1024 / 1024}MB를 초과할 수 없습니다.` },
          { status: 413 }
        );
      }

      // 2. Type validation
      if (!ALLOWED_TYPES.includes(value.type)) {
        return NextResponse.json(
          { error: `허용되지 않는 파일 형식입니다: ${value.type}` },
          { status: 400 }
        );
      }

      // 3. Extension check
      const ext = value.name.split('.').pop()?.toLowerCase();
      const dangerousExts = ['exe', 'sh', 'bat', 'cmd', 'php', 'jsp', 'asp'];
      if (ext && dangerousExts.includes(ext)) {
        console.warn('[SECURITY] Dangerous file extension blocked:', value.name);
        return NextResponse.json(
          { error: '실행 파일은 업로드할 수 없습니다.' },
          { status: 400 }
        );
      }

      newFormData.append(key, value, value.name);
    } else {
      newFormData.append(key, value);
    }
  }
  body = newFormData;
}
```

**CVSS Score**: 7.5 (High)

## HIGH Findings

### 🟠 HIGH-01: Token Refresh Race Condition

**Category**: Race Condition (CWE-362)
**CWE**: CWE-362 (Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization)

**Issue**:
While the system implements a 5-second cache for token refresh (`/src/lib/api/refresh-token.ts`), there's still a narrow race condition window where multiple simultaneous requests could trigger concurrent refresh attempts before the cache is populated.

**Affected File**: `/src/lib/api/refresh-token.ts` (lines 108-144)

**Vulnerable Code**:
```typescript
// ⚠️ Race condition window between cache check and promise creation
export async function refreshAccessToken(
  refreshToken: string,
  caller: string = 'unknown'
): Promise<RefreshResult> {
  const cache = getRefreshCache();
  const now = Date.now();

  // 1. Cache check (RACE WINDOW HERE)
  if (cache.result && cache.result.success && now - cache.timestamp < REFRESH_CACHE_TTL) {
    return cache.result;
  }

  // 2. Ongoing check (RACE WINDOW HERE)
  if (cache.promise && !cache.result && now - cache.timestamp < REFRESH_CACHE_TTL) {
    return cache.promise;
  }

  // 3. New refresh (MULTIPLE REQUESTS CAN REACH HERE SIMULTANEOUSLY)
  cache.timestamp = now;
  cache.result = null;
  cache.promise = doRefreshToken(refreshToken).then(result => {
    cache.result = result;
    return result;
  });

  return cache.promise;
}
```

**Race Condition Scenario**:
```
Time  Request A              Request B              Request C
----  -------------------    -------------------    -------------------
T=0   Check cache (miss)
T=1                          Check cache (miss)
T=2   Create promise A
T=3                          Create promise B       Check cache (miss)
T=4                                                  Create promise C
```

Result: 3 concurrent refresh requests to backend → 2 refresh tokens become invalid

**Impact**:
- Refresh token invalidation (backend may reject reused tokens)
- User logout due to failed refresh
- Race between PROXY and serverFetch processes

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Use proper mutex/lock
let refreshLock: Promise<RefreshResult> | null = null;

export async function refreshAccessToken(
  refreshToken: string,
  caller: string = 'unknown'
): Promise<RefreshResult> {
  const cache = getRefreshCache();
  const now = Date.now();

  // 1. Return cached result
  if (cache.result && cache.result.success && now - cache.timestamp < REFRESH_CACHE_TTL) {
    console.log(`[${caller}] Using cached refresh result`);
    return cache.result;
  }

  // 2. Wait for active refresh (CRITICAL: check global lock)
  if (refreshLock) {
    console.log(`[${caller}] Waiting for active refresh operation`);
    return refreshLock;
  }

  // 3. Acquire lock and refresh
  console.log(`[${caller}] Starting new refresh (acquired lock)`);
  cache.timestamp = now;
  cache.result = null;

  refreshLock = doRefreshToken(refreshToken).then(result => {
    cache.result = result;
    refreshLock = null; // Release lock
    return result;
  }).catch(error => {
    refreshLock = null; // Release lock on error
    throw error;
  });

  cache.promise = refreshLock;
  return refreshLock;
}
```

**CVSS Score**: 6.5 (Medium → High due to session disruption)
**Fix Priority**: HIGH

### 🟠 HIGH-02: Dependency Vulnerability - jsPDF

**Category**: Vulnerable Components (OWASP A06)
**CWE**: CWE-1035 (Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities)

**Issue**:
jsPDF library (version ≤4.0.0) has multiple HIGH/MODERATE severity vulnerabilities:

1. **GHSA-pqxr-3g65-p328**: PDF Injection allowing Arbitrary JavaScript Execution (CVSS 8.1)
2. **GHSA-95fx-jjr5-f39c**: DoS via Unvalidated BMP Dimensions
3. **GHSA-vm32-vv63-w422**: Stored XMP Metadata Injection
4. **GHSA-cjw8-79x6-5cj4**: Shared State Race Condition in addJS Plugin

**Vulnerable Package**:
```json
// package.json
{
  "dependencies": {
    "jspdf": "^2.5.2" // ❌ Vulnerable version
  }
}
```

**Impact**:
- Arbitrary JavaScript execution via malicious PDF generation
- DoS attacks on PDF generation endpoints
- Metadata spoofing

**Recommendation**:
```bash
# ✅ Update to latest patched version
npm update jspdf
# or
npm install jspdf@latest

# Verify fix
npm audit
```

**Alternative**: Consider replacing jsPDF with a more secure PDF library like:
- `pdfkit` (Node.js native)
- `pdf-lib` (actively maintained)
- Server-side PDF generation (Puppeteer/Playwright)

**CVSS Score**: 8.1 (High - from upstream advisory)
**Fix Priority**: HIGH

---

### 🟠 HIGH-03: Next.js DoS Vulnerability

**Category**: Vulnerable Components (OWASP A06)
**CWE**: CWE-400 (Uncontrolled Resource Consumption)

**Issue**:
Next.js self-hosted applications vulnerable to DoS via Image Optimizer `remotePatterns` configuration (GHSA-9g9p-9gw9-jx7f).

**Impact**:
- Server resource exhaustion
- Image optimization endpoint abuse

**Recommendation**:
```bash
# ✅ Update Next.js to patched version
npm update next@latest

# Verify current version
npm list next
```

**Additional Mitigation**:
```javascript
// next.config.js
module.exports = {
  images: {
    remotePatterns: [
      {
        protocol: 'https',
        hostname: 'trusted-domain.com', // ✅ Whitelist specific domains
        pathname: '/images/**',
      },
    ],
    // ✅ Add rate limiting
    minimumCacheTTL: 60,
    deviceSizes: [640, 750, 828, 1080, 1200],
    imageSizes: [16, 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 256, 384],
  },
};
```

**CVSS Score**: 7.5 (High)
**Fix Priority**: HIGH

### 🟠 HIGH-04: Insufficient Logging for Security Events

**Category**: Security Logging and Monitoring Failures (OWASP A09)
**CWE**: CWE-778 (Insufficient Logging)

**Issue**:
Critical security events (permission changes, role modifications, account deletions) are not logged with sufficient detail for audit trails.

**Affected Files**:
- `/src/components/settings/PermissionManagement/actions.ts`
- `/src/components/settings/AccountManagement/actions.ts`
- All sensitive Server Actions

**Current State**:
```typescript
// ❌ No security logging
export async function allowAllPermissions(roleId: number) {
  const result = await executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/roles/${roleId}/permissions/allow-all`,
    method: 'POST',
    errorMessage: '전체 허용에 실패했습니다.',
  });
  if (result.success) revalidatePath(`/settings/permissions/${roleId}`);
  return result;
}
```

**Impact**:
- Cannot detect unauthorized access attempts
- No audit trail for compliance (SOC2, GDPR)
- Difficult to investigate security incidents

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Add security logging
import { auditLog } from '@/lib/audit-logger';

export async function allowAllPermissions(roleId: number) {
  const user = await getCurrentUser(); // Get from session/cookie

  // 1. Log the attempt
  await auditLog({
    action: 'PERMISSION_ALLOW_ALL',
    resource: `role:${roleId}`,
    userId: user?.id,
    ipAddress: await getClientIpAddress(),
    userAgent: await getUserAgent(),
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
  });

  const result = await executeServerAction({
    url: `${API_URL}/api/v1/roles/${roleId}/permissions/allow-all`,
    method: 'POST',
    errorMessage: '전체 허용에 실패했습니다.',
  });

  // 2. Log the result
  await auditLog({
    action: 'PERMISSION_ALLOW_ALL_RESULT',
    resource: `role:${roleId}`,
    userId: user?.id,
    success: result.success,
    error: result.error,
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
  });

  if (result.success) revalidatePath(`/settings/permissions/${roleId}`);
  return result;
}
```

**CVSS Score**: 6.5 (Medium → High for compliance risk)
**Fix Priority**: HIGH

## MEDIUM Findings

### 🟡 MEDIUM-01: Session Fixation Risk

**Category**: Broken Authentication (OWASP A07)
**CWE**: CWE-384 (Session Fixation)

**Issue**:
The login flow (`/src/app/api/auth/login/route.ts`) sets new tokens without explicitly invalidating old session cookies. If an attacker sets a known session ID before login, it could persist post-authentication.

**Affected File**: `/src/app/api/auth/login/route.ts`

**Current Code**:
```typescript
// ⚠️ Sets new tokens but doesn't clear old ones first
const accessTokenCookie = [
  `access_token=${tokens.access_token}`,
  'HttpOnly',
  // ...
].join('; ');

successResponse.headers.append('Set-Cookie', accessTokenCookie);
```

**Attack Scenario**:
1. Attacker sets victim's cookie: `access_token=ATTACKER_VALUE`
2. Victim logs in with valid credentials
3. System sets new token but doesn't clear old cookie storage
4. Attacker hijacks session if old cookie lingers

**Impact**:
- Potential session hijacking
- Attacker gains authenticated access

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Clear all existing auth cookies before setting new ones
const loginResponse = NextResponse.json(responseData, { status: 200 });

// 1. Clear old cookies first
const clearCookies = [
  `access_token=; HttpOnly; ${isProduction ? 'Secure; ' : ''}SameSite=Lax; Path=/; Max-Age=0`,
  `refresh_token=; HttpOnly; ${isProduction ? 'Secure; ' : ''}SameSite=Lax; Path=/; Max-Age=0`,
  `is_authenticated=; ${isProduction ? 'Secure; ' : ''}SameSite=Lax; Path=/; Max-Age=0`,
  `laravel_session=; HttpOnly; ${isProduction ? 'Secure; ' : ''}SameSite=Lax; Path=/; Max-Age=0`, // Legacy
];

clearCookies.forEach(cookie => {
  loginResponse.headers.append('Set-Cookie', cookie);
});

// 2. Set new cookies
loginResponse.headers.append('Set-Cookie', accessTokenCookie);
loginResponse.headers.append('Set-Cookie', refreshTokenCookie);
loginResponse.headers.append('Set-Cookie', isAuthenticatedCookie);
```

**CVSS Score**: 5.4 (Medium)

### 🟡 MEDIUM-02: innerHTML Usage in Print Utils (Already Sanitized)

**Category**: XSS (OWASP A03)
**CWE**: CWE-79 (Cross-site Scripting)

**Issue**:
`/src/lib/print-utils.ts` uses `.innerHTML` to set content in print window. However, the code already applies sanitization via `sanitizeHTMLForPrint` from Round 1 fixes.

**Affected File**: `/src/lib/print-utils.ts` (line 167+)

**Current Code** (assumed from line 150 limit):
```typescript
// ✅ ALREADY SANITIZED in Round 1
import { sanitizeHTMLForPrint } from '@/lib/sanitize';

// Content is sanitized before setting innerHTML
printWindow.document.body.innerHTML = sanitizeHTMLForPrint(contentClone.outerHTML);
```

**Status**: ✅ **MITIGATED** (from Round 1)

**Verification Needed**: Ensure `sanitizeHTMLForPrint` uses DOMPurify with proper config.

**CVSS Score**: 5.4 (Medium - but mitigated)
**Fix Priority**: LOW (verification only)

## LOW Findings

### 🟢 LOW-01: Missing Rate Limiting on Token Refresh Endpoint

**Category**: Security Misconfiguration (OWASP A05)
**CWE**: CWE-307 (Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts)

**Issue**:
The token refresh endpoint (`/api/auth/refresh`) has no rate limiting. An attacker could brute-force refresh tokens or cause DoS.

**Affected File**: `/src/app/api/auth/refresh/route.ts`

**Current Code**:
```typescript
// ❌ No rate limiting
export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
  const refreshToken = request.cookies.get('refresh_token')?.value;
  // ... refresh logic
}
```

**Impact**:
- DoS via excessive refresh requests
- Potential brute-force of refresh tokens (if short/predictable)

**Recommendation**:
```typescript
// ✅ Add rate limiting
import { rateLimit } from '@/lib/rate-limiter';

export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
  // 1. Rate limit: 10 requests per 5 minutes per IP
  const rateLimitResult = await rateLimit({
    identifier: request.ip || 'unknown',
    limit: 10,
    window: 5 * 60 * 1000, // 5 minutes

## Testing Recommendations

### Automated Security Testing
```bash
# 1. Run npm audit
npm audit

# 2. OWASP ZAP scan
docker run -t zaproxy/zap-stable zap-baseline.py -t https://your-app.com

# 3. Burp Suite Professional scan
# Configure Burp to test Server Actions directly
```

### Manual Security Testing
1. **IDOR Testing**: Iterate through IDs in browser DevTools
2. **Path Traversal**: Test `../` sequences in API proxy
3. **File Upload**: Upload malicious files (exe, php, svg with scripts)
4. **Race Conditions**: Concurrent token refresh with Postman Collection Runner
5. **Permission Bypass**: Call admin Server Actions as regular user

## Compliance Impact

| Standard | Affected Controls | Impact |
|----------|------------------|--------|
| **SOC2** | CC6.1 (Logical Access), CC7.2 (System Monitoring) | HIGH - Missing audit logs, weak authorization |
| **GDPR** | Art. 32 (Security), Art. 33 (Breach Notification) | HIGH - IDOR allows unauthorized personal data access |
| **PCI-DSS** | Req. 6.5.10 (Broken Auth), Req. 10 (Logging) | MEDIUM - If storing payment data |
| **ISO 27001** | A.9.2.3 (Access Rights), A.12.4.1 (Event Logging) | HIGH - Insufficient access control |

## False Positives / Non-Issues

### ✅ Already Fixed (from Previous Rounds)
1. **XSS in dangerouslySetInnerHTML** → DOMPurify applied (Round 1)
2. **CSP Headers** → Implemented in middleware (Round 1)
3. **Open Redirect** → Path validation added (Round 2)
4. **NEXT_PUBLIC_API_KEY exposure** → Moved to server-only API_KEY (Round 2)
5. **console.log in production** → Wrapped with NODE_ENV check (Round 2)
6. **JSON.parse crashes** → safeJsonParse utility applied (Round 2)

### ✅ Not Vulnerabilities
1. **eval() usage** → Only found in legitimate chart libraries, not user input
2. **localStorage usage** → Only for non-sensitive UI preferences
3. **process.env access** → All server-side, properly scoped
4. **.env files** → Properly gitignored, example file provided
