Description
Remove the test bcrypt endpoint from AuthController or add an environment guard to prevent it from being accessible in production.
Location
backend/src/modules/auth/auth.controller.ts:130-146
Current Code
@Get('test')
async testBCrypt() {
(async () => {
const plainPassword = 'securePassword123';
const saltRounds = 10;
// Simulate Registration
const hashedPassword = await bcrypt.hash(plainPassword, saltRounds);
console.log('Plain password:', plainPassword);
console.log('Hashed password:', hashedPassword);
// Simulate Login
const isMatch = await bcrypt.compare(plainPassword, hashedPassword);
console.log('Passwords match:', isMatch);
return isMatch;
})();
}
Options
Option 1: Remove the endpoint entirely
Option 2: Add environment guard
@Get('test')
async testBCrypt() {
if (this.configService.get('NODE_ENV') === 'production') {
throw new NotFoundException();
}
// ... rest of code
}
Option 3: Move to development-only module
Create a separate DevToolsController that's only registered in development/staging environments.
Rationale
- This endpoint appears to be for development/testing purposes
- Should not be exposed in production environments
- Could provide information about bcrypt configuration to attackers
- Uses console.log which is not ideal for production
Priority
Low - The endpoint doesn't expose sensitive data or create security vulnerabilities, but it's not production-appropriate.
