# Backend: 14 high-severity npm vulnerabilities, no audit step in CI
|
|
|
|
**Severity:** medium
|
|
**Domain:** Dependencies
|
|
**Labels:** security, backend, dependencies, ci-cd
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
`npm audit` reports 14 high-severity vulnerabilities in backend production dependencies (packages include mongoose, multer, axios, and others). No CI pipeline step runs `npm audit`, so new vulnerabilities silently accumulate.
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
1. Add `npm audit` (or `audit-ci`) as a non-blocking report step first, then make blocking.
|
|
2. Upgrade the flagged packages and add a blocking audit gate.
|
|
3. Adopt Renovate/Dependabot plus a CI audit step.
|
|
|
|
## Recommendation
|
|
|
|
Add an audit step (start as report), prioritize upgrading the 14 highs, then make the gate blocking. Package upgrades risk breakage — test before making the gate mandatory.
|
|
|
|
## Affected Files
|
|
|
|
- `backend/package.json`
|
|
- `backend/.woodpecker/development.yml` — add audit step
