Common vulnerabilities found in Antigravity applications

Critical Security Issues

Credentials Embedded in Component Integrations

critical

Antigravity's visual builder stores API keys in drag-and-drop component configs that get bundled into client-side code.

Impact

Secrets scattered across multiple component definitions are harder to find than centralized config files. Attackers extract them from the JS bundle.

How to Detect

Open each component's integration settings in the visual editor. Also search the built JS bundle for key patterns like 'sk-' and 'Bearer'.

How to Fix

Move all credentials from component configs to deployment environment variables. Use a server-side proxy for third-party API calls.

Visual Permissions Without Data-Layer Enforcement

critical

Antigravity's drag-and-drop UI lets you hide components per role, but this doesn't enforce access at the database or API level.

Impact

Attackers bypass UI restrictions by calling APIs directly. Hiding an admin button doesn't prevent the admin API endpoint from being accessed.

How to Detect

Log in as a non-admin user, then use browser DevTools to call API endpoints that admin components use. If they return data, authorization is missing.

How to Fix

Enable RLS on your database and add server-side middleware that checks user roles before processing requests.

High Severity Issues

Missing Server-Side Form Validation

high

Visual form components generate client-side validation only. An attacker can submit arbitrary data by bypassing the browser.

Impact

Injection attacks, data corruption, and business logic bypass through direct API calls with malformed payloads.

How to Detect

Use curl or Postman to submit form data directly to the API endpoint, skipping the visual form entirely.

How to Fix

Add server-side validation for every form endpoint. Use schema validation libraries to enforce data shapes on the backend.

Publicly Accessible Preview Deployments

high

Antigravity preview URLs may be indexable and accessible without authentication, exposing in-progress features.

Impact

Unreleased features, debug endpoints, and test data visible to anyone who discovers the preview URL.

How to Detect

Check if preview URLs appear in search engine results. Try accessing preview URLs in an incognito browser.

How to Fix

Configure preview deployments to require authentication. Add noindex headers to preview environments.

Medium Severity Issues

Third-Party Component Integrations Over-Permissioned

medium

Visual builder integrations may request broader API scopes than needed for the component's function.

Impact

If a component's credentials leak, attackers gain access beyond what the component actually uses.

How to Detect

Review the permission scopes of each third-party integration. Check if read-only access would suffice where read-write is granted.

How to Fix

Apply least-privilege: create API keys with only the permissions each component needs. Use read-only tokens where possible.

Missing Security Headers on Deployed App

medium

Antigravity's deployment config doesn't add CSP, HSTS, or X-Frame-Options by default.

Impact

Increased XSS risk and clickjacking vulnerability on the published app.

How to Detect

Inspect response headers in browser DevTools Network tab, or run a VAS scan.

How to Fix

Add security headers in the hosting platform configuration or through a custom middleware layer.

How to Prevent These Issues

  • Run automated security scans before every deployment
  • Configure database access controls (RLS/Security Rules) first
  • Store all secrets in environment variables, never in code
  • Enable email verification and strong password policies
  • Add security headers to your hosting configuration
  • Review AI-generated code for security before accepting

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the most common Antigravity security issues?

The most common issues are: exposed API keys/secrets, missing database access controls (RLS or Security Rules), weak authentication configuration, and missing security headers. These account for over 80% of vulnerabilities in Antigravity applications.

How do I find security issues in my Antigravity app?

Run a VAS security scan for automated detection of common vulnerabilities. Manually check: database access controls, search code for hardcoded secrets, verify authentication settings, and test security headers. VAS catches all of these automatically.

Are Antigravity security issues fixable?

Yes, nearly all Antigravity security issues are configuration problems with straightforward fixes. Missing RLS, exposed secrets, weak auth—all have clear remediation steps. Most fixes take under an hour to implement.

How quickly can Antigravity security issues be exploited?

Exposed databases and API keys can be discovered within minutes using automated scanners. Attackers actively scan for common patterns. This is why security configuration must happen before deployment, not after.

Does Antigravity have built-in security?

Antigravity provides security features, but they require configuration. Security isn't automatic—you must enable database access controls, manage secrets properly, configure auth settings, and add security headers. The tools exist; you must use them.
