The prompt

Review this code for security problems:

[PASTE CODE]

Context: [WHAT IT DOES AND WHO USES IT]

Check for injection, broken authentication, insecure secrets, unsafe input handling, missing authorisation checks, sensitive data exposure and unsafe dependencies. For each issue explain the risk in plain English, rate severity and show a fix.

Pro tip: Run it against code that handles logins, uploads and payments first; that is where the risk is.
