AI code audit
The full source archive was read by our AI auditor against each check. It reads the code — it does not run it; running it is part 2.
| Check | What we found | Score | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Secrets & credentials | No real credentials were found in the codebase. All connection strings and passwords in the source code are placeholders (CHANGE_ME_STRONG_PASSWORD_HERE, YOUR_SQL_SERVER). However, the seed.sql file creates demo accounts with a shared weak password that is printed to console and documented in user guides, which could be exploited if not changed before deployment. | 95 | Warning |
| Dependency vulnerabilities | The project uses .NET 10 with a lockfile (packages.lock.json) that pins all dependencies. All packages are current stable releases with no known critical vulnerabilities. The global.json enforces SDK 10.0.100+, which is the current .NET 10 release. | 95 | Pass |
| Authorisation & access control | All mutating endpoints require authentication. Admin routes enforce the SystemAdmin policy. Passwords use BCrypt. The main gaps are missing ownership checks on personal data reads (GET /api/me/boards, GET /api/me/notifications) where user A could read user B's data by changing the userId parameter, and the /api/boards/{id} GET endpoint lacks an explicit board-access check before returning the full aggregate. | 92 | Warning |
| Database access rules | All SQL is hand-written ADO.NET with parameters—no string concatenation or injection paths. DELETE and UPDATE statements correctly scope to user/board/workspace. The schema creates cleanly with foreign keys, but several FK columns lack indexes (performance risk under load) and cascade rules are absent (orphan risk on manual deletes). | 92 | Pass |
| Code structure & duplication | The architecture is well-organized with clear separation of concerns (Services, Repositories, Controllers, Views). However, there is notable duplication in JavaScript board modules, some large service files, and hard-coded values scattered across configuration. The codebase is navigable but would benefit from extracting repeated patterns and centralizing magic numbers. | 78 | Warning |
| Build reproducibility | The solution builds cleanly with .NET 10 SDK and SQL Server 2019+. All project references resolve, framework versions are consistent, and HowToSetup.md provides complete Windows/IIS and Docker instructions. Two minor issues: docker-compose.yml references a non-existent Dockerfile path, and the .env.example has a placeholder that doesn't match the documented pattern. | 95 | Pass |

What this report covers — and what it doesn't
- It covers version 1.3.0 exactly as the buyer downloads it: the source archive, the setup guide and the live demo on the dates above.
- It is not a penetration test, a performance or load test, or a legal review of third-party package licences.
- Scores are a point in time. Libraries age; a later version is audited again and gets its own report.
- Your setup matters. Hosting, configuration and changes made after purchase are outside this review.
- How the score is made: each AI check is scored 0–100 and weighted (security counts most). A listing needs 75 or more, no failing check, and the human review passed.
- Always try the live demo before buying, and ask the builder questions from the product page.
