Top 5 Security Issues in Antigravity Apps

1

Exposed API Keys

OpenAI, Stripe, and other secret keys embedded in frontend code. Attackers can extract these and abuse your API quotas or access sensitive services.

2

Database Exposure

Supabase or Firebase tables accessible without proper Row Level Security or Security Rules, allowing unauthorized data access.

3

Missing Security Headers

Lack of Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and other headers leaves your app vulnerable to XSS and MITM attacks.

4

Weak Authentication

No password requirements, missing email verification, and lack of brute force protection on login endpoints.

5

Source Map Exposure

Production source maps revealing your entire application source code, including API endpoints and business logic.

Understanding Antigravity Security Challenges

Antigravity has revolutionized how developers build web applications, enabling rapid prototyping and deployment through AI-assisted code generation. However, this speed comes with inherent security tradeoffs that every developer needs to understand before launching to production.

When AI generates code, it optimizes for functionality and developer experience rather than security hardening. The generated code typically works correctly but may lack the defensive measures that experienced security engineers would implement. This creates a gap between "working software" and "secure software" that attackers actively exploit.

Research from institutions like Stanford and security firms like Escape.tech has documented that approximately 80% of AI-generated applications contain at least one security vulnerability. Common issues include exposed API credentials, missing authentication checks, improper data validation, and misconfigured database permissions.

The Antigravity platform specifically presents unique challenges because of how it handles backend services, environment variables, and database connections. Understanding these platform-specific risks is the first step toward building secure applications.

Frontend Security Risks

Antigravity applications often bundle sensitive configuration into client-side JavaScript. This includes API keys, service URLs, and sometimes authentication tokens. Attackers can extract these by simply viewing your application's source code in browser developer tools, potentially gaining access to your backend services.

Backend Security Risks

Database configurations generated by Antigravity frequently lack proper access controls. Without Row Level Security (RLS) policies or equivalent protections, authenticated users may access other users' data. API endpoints may also lack rate limiting, input validation, or proper authorization checks.

What We Check

Secret Detection

Scans JavaScript bundles for API keys, tokens, and credentials that should be server-side only.

Database Security

Tests Supabase RLS policies or Firebase Security Rules to verify data is protected.

Security Headers

Checks for essential HTTP security headers to prevent common attacks.

Auth Configuration

Analyzes authentication implementation for weak passwords, session issues, and rate limiting.

Why Antigravity Apps Need Security Scanning

Antigravity is an AI-powered IDE that enables rapid application development. While this dramatically speeds up building, the generated code often prioritizes getting features working over implementing security best practices.

Like other AI coding platforms, Antigravity applications frequently connect to databases like Supabase that require explicit security configuration. Without proper Row Level Security policies, your data is exposed to anyone who can view your frontend code.

VAS was built specifically to catch the security issues common in AI-generated applications. We test your deployed application for exposed secrets, database misconfigurations, missing security headers, and authentication weaknesses.

Common Questions About Antigravity Security

What vulnerabilities are most common in Antigravity apps?

The most frequent issues we find include exposed API keys in frontend code, missing or misconfigured authentication, insecure database access patterns, and missing security headers. These often result from AI-generated code that prioritizes functionality over security.

How long does a security scan take?

Most Antigravity application scans complete within 15-20 minutes. Larger applications with many pages may take slightly longer. You'll receive an email notification when your scan is ready.

Will the scan affect my production app?

Our scanner uses non-invasive techniques and won't modify your application or data. We analyze your publicly accessible endpoints, check security configurations, and look for exposed secrets without performing destructive tests.

Security Best Practices for Antigravity

While our scanner identifies vulnerabilities automatically, understanding security best practices helps you build more secure applications from the start. Here are the essential security measures every Antigravity developer should implement:

Environment Variable Management

Never hardcode API keys, database credentials, or other secrets directly in your code. Use environment variables for all sensitive configuration and ensure they're properly excluded from version control. In Antigravity, verify that secrets are stored server-side and not exposed in client bundles.

Regularly rotate your API keys and credentials. If you discover an exposed key, revoke it immediately and generate a new one. Monitor your third-party service dashboards for unusual activity that might indicate compromised credentials.

Database Security Configuration

If your Antigravity application uses Supabase, enable Row Level Security (RLS) on every table containing user data. Create specific policies that restrict data access based on user identity. Test your policies by attempting to access data as different users.

For Firebase applications, configure Security Rules to validate all read and write operations. Avoid using open rules like "allow read, write: if true" even during development. Implement authentication requirements and ownership checks for all sensitive data operations.

HTTP Security Headers

Configure essential security headers including Content-Security-Policy (CSP), Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS), X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options. These headers protect against common attacks like cross-site scripting (XSS), clickjacking, and man-in-the-middle attacks.

Most Antigravity deployments support custom headers through configuration files or hosting platform settings. A proper CSP policy alone can prevent the majority of XSS vulnerabilities by controlling which scripts can execute on your pages.

Regular Security Testing

Security is not a one-time task. Run security scans before every major deployment and after adding new features. AI code generation often introduces new vulnerabilities when you prompt it for additional functionality, so continuous testing is essential.

Establish a security testing routine: scan during development, before staging deployments, and before production releases. Address critical and high-severity findings immediately, and track medium and low severity issues for systematic remediation.

Secure Your Antigravity App

Don't let vulnerabilities compromise your hard work. Security issues in Antigravity applications can lead to data breaches, unauthorized access, and damaged user trust. The average data breach costs startups between $120,000 and $1.24 million.
