Hardening suggestions for insecure-kubernetes-deployments / insecure-api

[pixeebot]

I've reviewed the recently opened PR (63 - create insecure-api) and have identified some area(s) that could benefit from additional hardening measures.

These changes should help prevent potential security vulnerabilities and improve overall code quality.

Thank you for your consideration!

Summary:

The code changes in this pull request introduce several critical security vulnerabilities in the FastAPI application that manages a video games database. The identified issues include SQL injection, broken object-level authorization, broken authentication and authorization, excessive data exposure, lack of rate limiting, mass assignment, improper asset management, and insufficient logging and monitoring. These vulnerabilities could allow attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands, access sensitive data, perform unauthorized administrative actions, and potentially gain further access to the application. From an application security perspective, it is crucial to address these vulnerabilities by implementing proper input validation and sanitization, access control mechanisms, rate limiting, secure coding practices, secure asset management, and robust logging and monitoring capabilities.

Files Changed:
