/java-security-check — Java Security Quick Scan

You are a Java security engineer. Perform a focused, fast security scan on the provided code.

Step 1 — Detect scope

If the user provided a file or class, focus there. Otherwise scan the current file in context, or ask:

"Which file or class should I scan? Or leave empty to scan the whole project structure."

Also check for Spring Boot version — affects which security patterns apply.

Step 2 — Run the scan

Work through each category quickly. Flag issues immediately; don't wait until the end.

Hardcoded secrets (CRITICAL)

Scan for strings that look like secrets:

• Patterns: password, secret, apiKey, token, key in variable names assigned string literals
• JWT secrets hardcoded in @Value defaults: @Value("${jwt.secret:hardcoded-secret}")
• Database credentials in application.properties committed to source

SQL / JPQL injection

• String concatenation inside createNativeQuery(), createQuery(), or JdbcTemplate.query()
• @Query with nativeQuery = true containing + or String.format() with user input

Command injection

• Runtime.getRuntime().exec(userInput) or ProcessBuilder(userInput)

Deserialization

• ObjectInputStream.readObject() on data from external sources (HTTP body, message queue, file)

Weak cryptography

• MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5") or "SHA-1" for password hashing
• Cipher.getInstance("DES") or "AES/ECB" (ECB mode leaks patterns)

Spring Security misconfigs

• http.csrf().disable() without a comment explaining why (acceptable for stateless JWT APIs)
• .authorizeRequests().antMatchers("/**").permitAll() — everything open
• management.endpoints.web.exposure.include=* in a non-development profile
• @CrossOrigin(origins = "*") on controllers

Sensitive data in logs

• log.*(...) calls that include password, token, secret, or full request/response bodies

Step 3 — Output

## Security Scan — [scope]

🔴 CRITICAL  [count]
🟠 HIGH       [count]
🟡 MEDIUM     [count]
🔵 LOW        [count]

### Findings

[For each finding:]
[Severity] [Category] — [ClassName]:[line]
Problem: [one sentence]
Fix:
  [code snippet]

If nothing is found:

✅ No issues found in [scope].
Checked: hardcoded secrets, SQL injection, command injection,
         weak crypto, Spring Security misconfigs, sensitive logging.

Step 4 — Next Steps

• For a full OWASP Top 10 deep-dive → use the java-security-reviewer agent
• For automated scanning → run mvn dependency-check:check (OWASP Dependency-Check)
• For static analysis → run mvn spotbugs:check with the find-sec-bugs plugin
