DronaHQ Security Scanner
Building enterprise internal tools with DronaHQ? Make sure your database connectors and API integrations are properly secured.
Enter your deployed app's URL. Review the findings, take the suggested fixes to your coding tool, and retest after making changes.
First scan free: issue counts and one finding revealed in detail. No card required.
Top 4 Security Issues in DronaHQ Apps
Over-Permissioned Database Connectors
Connectors often use database accounts with full access. If compromised, the entire database is exposed.
Shared API Credentials
API keys at the app level are shared across all users, making action tracing impossible.
Server-Side Authorization Bypass
Action flows may validate permissions in the UI but skip checks during server-side execution.
Missing Audit Trail
Enterprise compliance requires complete audit logs. DronaHQ apps may not log all data access events.
Where Security Breaks in DronaHQ Apps
Built on Firebase (Firestore + Security Rules), DronaHQ applications share a recognizable fingerprint, which means attackers and automated scanners find them the same way every time. Based on real vulnerability patterns in DronaHQ deployments, the breakdown is 1 critical-impact issue, 1 high-impact, and 2 medium-or-lower.
Over-Permissioned Database Connectors
Connectors often use database accounts with full access. If compromised, the entire database is exposed.
Fix: Scan your deployed application with a security tool that understands this stack. Address the specific findings — generic best practices don't catch platform-specific misconfigurations.
Shared API Credentials
API keys at the app level are shared across all users, making action tracing impossible.
Fix: Move all secrets server-side (environment variables, serverless functions). Rotate any keys previously in frontend code. Audit bundles for leftover credentials before each deploy.
Server-Side Authorization Bypass
Action flows may validate permissions in the UI but skip checks during server-side execution.
Fix: Enable Row Level Security (Supabase) or Security Rules (Firebase) on every table. For custom backends, enforce authorization at the query layer — never client-side.
Missing Audit Trail
Enterprise compliance requires complete audit logs. DronaHQ apps may not log all data access events.
Fix: Enable audit logging for all data access and admin operations. Retain logs per your compliance requirements (7 years for SOX, indefinite for some PCI scenarios).
What We Check
Connector Security
Audits database and API connectors for overly broad permissions.
Credential Exposure
Scans for API keys and tokens exposed in frontend code.
Authorization Testing
Tests whether access controls are enforced server-side.
Security Headers
Verifies HTTP security headers and deployment configuration.
What You'll Get
Why DronaHQ Apps Need Security Scanning
DronaHQ is an enterprise low-code platform for building internal tools that connect directly to production databases and APIs. A security gap can become a direct path to your most sensitive data.
Enterprise tools built with DronaHQ often handle PII, financial records, and compliance-sensitive data. vas scans for exposed connectors, authorization bypasses, and missing audit controls.
How DronaHQ Security Scanning Works
Submit Your URL
Enter your DronaHQ application URL. Our scanner automatically detects your tech stack and configures the appropriate security checks for DronaHQ.
Automated Analysis
We check the reachable app for exposed secrets, browser protections, authentication issues and database access problems. A standard scan typically takes a few minutes; blocked requests or incomplete coverage are reported.
Get Actionable Results
Receive a detailed report with prioritized vulnerabilities, severity ratings, and step-by-step remediation guidance with code examples specific to DronaHQ.
Common Questions About DronaHQ Security
What does a VAS scan of a DronaHQ app check?
VAS checks the deployed pages, scripts and endpoints it can reach for issues including connector security, credential exposure, authorization testing, security headers. The report records findings and coverage limits; it does not certify the whole app as secure.
What will I receive in the report?
Findings include severity, supporting evidence and remediation guidance. Your first scan is free, with issue counts and one finding revealed in detail. Paid report access unlocks every finding. Use Export for AI to bring available findings into your coding tool, review the proposed changes and retest.
Can a scan verify every permission and private workflow?
No. Coverage depends on reachable pages, discovered endpoints and enabled checks. Configure a test login for supported authenticated checks. Review source code and business-specific permissions separately. Zero findings does not prove an app is secure.
Does VAS change my code or database policies?
VAS provides recommendations, not automatic fixes. Adapt any suggested policy or code change to your data model, test that permitted users still have access and that other users do not, then rescan. Read checks alone cannot confirm insert, update or delete permissions.
What should I know before scanning a production app?
Only scan apps you own or have permission to test. Scan requests can trigger firewall rules, logs and rate limits. Review enabled checks, and use staging or dedicated test accounts for sensitive workflows. Active tests, where enabled, need separate care because they can make changes.
Remediation Playbook for DronaHQ
Priority-ordered fixes for the specific findings we see in DronaHQ apps. Critical items close data-exposure gaps; high items prevent compromise; medium items reduce attack surface. Applies to apps using Firebase (Firestore + Security Rules), the dominant DronaHQ stack.
1. Over-Permissioned Database Connectors
Why it matters: Connectors often use database accounts with full access. If compromised, the entire database is exposed.
How to close it: Scan your deployed application with a security tool that understands this stack. Address the specific findings — generic best practices don't catch platform-specific misconfigurations.
2. Shared API Credentials
Why it matters: API keys at the app level are shared across all users, making action tracing impossible.
How to close it: Move all secrets server-side (environment variables, serverless functions). Rotate any keys previously in frontend code. Audit bundles for leftover credentials before each deploy.
3. Server-Side Authorization Bypass
Why it matters: Action flows may validate permissions in the UI but skip checks during server-side execution.
How to close it: Enable Row Level Security (Supabase) or Security Rules (Firebase) on every table. For custom backends, enforce authorization at the query layer — never client-side.
4. Missing Audit Trail
Why it matters: Enterprise compliance requires complete audit logs. DronaHQ apps may not log all data access events.
How to close it: Enable audit logging for all data access and admin operations. Retain logs per your compliance requirements (7 years for SOX, indefinite for some PCI scenarios).
Verify the fixes stuck
Rescan after deploying a fix to check whether the original finding still appears. Compare the evidence and coverage with the previous report. For permissions and private workflows, also repeat the relevant tests with authorized and unauthorized test users.
