Full-codebase-audit 2026-05-30 outputs: - Audit report: 09 - Audits/Full Codebase Audit - 2026-05-30.md - 81 issue files ISSUE-055..135 (decisions + 1 skipped no-brainer). - Scanner docs from scratch (was zero): architecture, data model, API ref, payment flow, operations runbook + repo README. - Doc-sync updates across API reference, data models, flows, design system. - Secret Rotation Runbook (08 - Operations) for the exposed credentials. - Reusable workflow guide (07 - Development) + .claude/workflows/full-codebase-audit.js. Issues remain status:open intentionally — the code fixes are uncommitted-then-committed working-tree changes per repo and aren't "resolved" until merged/deployed.

# 🟠 reset-password-with-code endpoint has no password complexity validation — accepts weak passwords rejected by token-based reset
|
|
|
|
**Severity:** major
|
|
**Domain:** Authentication
|
|
**Labels:** security, bug, backend, major, auth
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
POST /api/auth/reset-password-with-code has no validation middleware (authRoutes.ts:54-56). A new password of '123456' or 'aaaaaa' is accepted. POST /api/auth/reset-password uses passwordResetValidation enforcing uppercase+lowercase+digit. Inconsistent security between the two reset paths.
|
|
|
|
## Current Behavior
|
|
|
|
Code-based password reset accepts any non-empty password without complexity requirements.
|
|
|
|
## Expected Behavior
|
|
|
|
POST /api/auth/reset-password-with-code should apply the same passwordResetValidation middleware as the token-based reset.
