Security Testing & Verification

Built-In Security Tests

This project includes automated tests and verification scripts for all security features.

Testing Rate Limiting

Automated Test Script

# Run the provided test script
node scripts/test-rate-limit.js

What it tests:

• Makes 10 consecutive requests to rate-limited endpoint
• Verifies first 5 succeed (HTTP 200)
• Verifies requests 6-10 are blocked (HTTP 429)
• Tests rate limit reset after 60 seconds

Expected output:

Testing Rate Limiting (5 requests/minute per IP)
Request  1: ✓ 200 - Success
Request  2: ✓ 200 - Success
Request  3: ✓ 200 - Success
Request  4: ✓ 200 - Success
Request  5: ✓ 200 - Success
Request  6: ✗ 429 - Too many requests
Request  7: ✗ 429 - Too many requests
Request  8: ✗ 429 - Too many requests
Request  9: ✗ 429 - Too many requests
Request 10: ✗ 429 - Too many requests

✓ Rate limiting is working correctly!

Manual Testing

# Test rate limiting manually
for i in {1..10}; do
  echo "Request $i:"
  curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n" \
    http://localhost:3000/api/test-rate-limit
  sleep 0.1
done

# Expected:
# Requests 1-5: 200
# Requests 6-10: 429

Test Reset After Window

# Make 5 requests
for i in {1..5}; do
  curl http://localhost:3000/api/test-rate-limit
done

# Wait 61 seconds (rate limit window = 60 seconds)
sleep 61

# Try again - should succeed
curl http://localhost:3000/api/test-rate-limit

# Expected: 200 OK (limit reset)

Testing CSRF Protection

Test 1: Request Without Token (Should Fail)

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title": "test"}'

# Expected: 403 Forbidden
# {
#   "error": "CSRF token missing"
# }

Test 2: Request With Valid Token (Should Succeed)

# Step 1: Get CSRF token
TOKEN=$(curl -s http://localhost:3000/api/csrf \
  -c cookies.txt | jq -r '.csrfToken')

# Step 2: Use token in request
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -b cookies.txt \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $TOKEN" \
  -d '{"title": "test"}'

# Expected: 200 OK

Test 3: Token Reuse (Should Fail)

# Get token
TOKEN=$(curl -s http://localhost:3000/api/csrf \
  -c cookies.txt | jq -r '.csrfToken')

# Use once (succeeds)
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -b cookies.txt \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $TOKEN" \
  -d '{"title": "test"}'

# Try to reuse same token (should fail)
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -b cookies.txt \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $TOKEN" \
  -d '{"title": "test2"}'

# Expected: 403 Forbidden - Token already used

Test 4: Invalid Token (Should Fail)

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: fake-token-12345" \
  -d '{"title": "test"}'

# Expected: 403 Forbidden
# {
#   "error": "CSRF token invalid"
# }

Testing Input Validation

Test XSS Sanitization

# Test script tags removal
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: <get-token-first>" \
  -d '{"title": "<script>alert(1)</script>"}'

# Expected: 200 OK
# Title sanitized to: "alert(1)"
# < and > removed

Test Length Validation

# Test too-long input
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example-protected \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: <token>" \
  -d "{\"title\": \"$(printf 'A%.0s' {1..200})\"}"

# Expected: 400 Bad Request
# {
#   "error": "Validation failed",
#   "details": {
#     "title": "String must contain at most 100 character(s)"
#   }
# }

Test Email Validation

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/contact \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Test User",
    "email": "not-an-email",
    "subject": "Test",
    "message": "Test message"
  }'

# Expected: 400 Bad Request
# {
#   "error": "Validation failed",
#   "details": {
#     "email": "Invalid email"
#   }
# }

Test Required Fields

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/contact \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Test User"
  }'

# Expected: 400 Bad Request with missing field errors

Testing Security Headers

Manual Penetration Testing

Test XSS in All Input Fields

1. Try these payloads in every input: <script>alert('XSS')</script> <img src=x onerror=alert('XSS')> <svg onload=alert('XSS')> javascript:alert('XSS') "><script>alert('XSS')</script>
2. Verify all are sanitized

Test SQL Injection

1. Try these in search/query fields: ' OR '1'='1 '; DROP TABLE users; -- ' UNION SELECT * FROM users --
2. Verify input validation blocks or sanitizes

Test CSRF

1. Create malicious HTML file: <form action="http://localhost:3000/api/delete-account" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="confirm" value="yes" /> </form> <script>document.forms[0].submit();</script>
2. Open while logged in
3. Verify request blocked (403 Forbidden)

Test Authorization

1. Create resource as User A
2. Try to access/modify as User B
3. Verify 403 Forbidden

What To Monitor Post-Deployment

Daily

• Error rates (Vercel dashboard)
• Failed authentication attempts (Clerk dashboard)
• Rate limit violations (check logs for 429 responses)

Weekly

• Run npm audit --production
• Check GitHub Dependabot alerts
• Review error logs for patterns

Monthly

• Full security audit
• Update dependencies
• Re-run security testing suite
• Check security headers (securityheaders.com)
