Seven security checks to run on a vibe-coded app before launch

·5 views

An article for developers who built apps with AI coding tools warns that these tools often prioritize functionality over security. It outlines a roughly ten-minute audit covering Supabase row-level security, server-side ownership checks, and payment flows that can be exploited. The author explains how to test whether a logged-out visitor can read tables by calling the Supabase REST API with the public anon key. The piece also advises searching frontend bundles and git history for leaked secret keys, including Supabase service_role keys that bypass all access rules. Each check comes with commands and suggested fixes, such as enabling owner-only policies and moving secrets to server-only code.

Cacheiro Instants offers ready-to-run Docker images for a self-hosted Nx remote cache

Cacheiro, a free and open source (MIT) remote cache server for Nx and Lerna, can now be launched with a single Docker command thanks to its new Cacheiro Instants feature. The project was created after Nx deprecated its official self-hosted cache packages following the CVE-2025-36852 cache poisoning vulnerability. Cacheiro Instants provides four prebuilt images, covering local filesystem, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage and Azure Blob Storage, hosted on the GitHub Container Registry. Each image includes only the dependencies its storage backend needs, and authentication is handled through a bearer token that should be set in any exposed environment. Teams configure their workspace by pointing two environment variables at the server, removing the need to build or customize code.

Day 80 review: why a WeChat IP whitelist keeps blocking automated diary publishing

The author reviews 80 days of an automated diary pipeline that generates entries, checks quality, and publishes to WeChat Official Accounts. Of four publishing attempts in the recorded window, only one succeeded, with the others rejected by WeChat's IP whitelist (errcode 40164) because Cloudflare-based outbound IPs kept changing. Manually adding each new IP to the whitelist proved to be an endless cycle, so the author argues the real fix is disabling the whitelist entirely. The author also compares three deployment models and concludes that a local-first approach, with WeChat as just one optional distribution channel, is more resilient. Short-term steps include disabling the whitelist and republishing the backlog of drafts, while longer-term plans involve building RSS and static-site outputs alongside monthly reliability tracking.
