Built fast with Bolt.new? Now make it secure. We find the vulnerabilities that AI code generation misses.

Our automated security scanner analyzes your Bolt application for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and exposed secrets. Get a comprehensive security report in minutes, not days.

Top 5 Security Issues in Bolt.new Apps

1

Exposed API Keys

OpenAI, Stripe, and other secret keys hardcoded directly in frontend JavaScript bundles. Attackers can extract these keys and use your API quotas, make purchases, or access your services.

2

Missing Supabase RLS

Database tables accessible to anyone with the anon key because Row Level Security policies haven't been configured. This means any user can read, modify, or delete all data in exposed tables.

3

No Security Headers

Missing Content-Security-Policy, Strict-Transport-Security, and X-Frame-Options headers leave your app vulnerable to cross-site scripting, man-in-the-middle attacks, and clickjacking.

4

Weak Authentication

No minimum password requirements, missing email verification, and lack of rate limiting on login endpoints allows brute force attacks and account takeovers.

5

Source Map Exposure

Production source maps uploaded to hosting reveal your entire application source code, including business logic, API endpoints, and potentially sensitive comments.

What We Check

Secret Detection

Scans all JavaScript bundles for API keys, tokens, and credentials that should never be in frontend code. We detect OpenAI keys, Stripe secrets, AWS credentials, database connection strings, and dozens of other sensitive patterns.

Database Security

Tests Supabase/Firebase for proper security rules. We query your tables to verify they're protected.

Security Headers

Checks for all important HTTP security headers that prevent XSS, clickjacking, and MITM attacks.

Auth & Sessions

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

Why Bolt.new Apps Need Security Scanning

Bolt.new enables you to build full-stack applications in minutes using AI-powered code generation. While this dramatically accelerates development, the generated code often prioritizes functionality over security. Features that would take days to build manually are created in seconds, but security configurations require careful attention that AI assistants can overlook.

Most Bolt.new applications connect to Supabase for database and authentication. Supabase is secure by default, but requires explicit Row Level Security (RLS) policies to protect your data. Without these policies, your database tables are accessible to anyone who can view your frontend code and extract the Supabase anon key.

VAS was built specifically to catch the security issues common in AI-generated applications. We test your actual deployed application, checking for exposed API keys, verifying database security policies, analyzing authentication strength, and ensuring proper security headers are configured on your hosting platform.

Common Questions About Bolt.new Security

What vulnerabilities are most common in Bolt.new 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 Bolt.new 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.
