25% of the YC W25 batch had codebases roughly 95% AI-generated. If your product IS the AI-built app — a Lovable, Bolt, Replit, or Base44 build sitting on Supabase — we find and fix the flaws that stall enterprise deals and trigger breach disclosures before a customer's security team finds them first.
Get a Free Security Scan Book an AI App AuditSaaS founders selling to businesses run into a hard commercial wall: buyers gate purchase on security. 77% of businesses say stakeholders now demand verified proof of compliance before a deal closes, and 47% report sales delayed for lack of certification. Meanwhile the platforms these startups are built on have shipped a steady stream of critical flaws — CVE-2025-48757, the Base44 auth bypass, the Moltbook Supabase exposure, and Replit's agent deleting a production database. The startup that can't pass a security review can't close the deal, and the one breached pre-PMF rarely gets a second chance.
These are the components we see AI-built SaaS products ship with — and exactly where the risk sits in each one.
Client-side-only checks are common. Base44's register/OTP endpoints required no auth at all, letting anyone join a "private" SSO app with nothing but a public app_id.
Row-level security disabled or mis-written is the root cause of CVE-2025-48757 (170+ apps) and Moltbook (full read and write access to the entire production database) — any tenant, or even an anonymous visitor with the public anon key, can read every other tenant's rows.
Unverified webhooks and writable payment tables let attackers read transactions and modify subscription or payment status without logging in — part of the same CVE-2025-48757 exposure.
BOLA/IDOR flaws let one user pull another's data. A researcher used Lovable's own API to pull other users' source code, Supabase credentials, chat histories, and Stripe customer IDs in as few as five API calls.
Often protected only by URL obscurity. Red Access found many exposed vibe-coded corporate apps "granted administrative access by default to anyone reaching the URL."
Public-read buckets with directory listing left on are a recurring failure mode — the same misconfiguration class behind the Tea app's open Firebase bucket exposing 72,000 images.
API keys hardcoded into client JS are routine. Escape.tech harvested 400+ live secrets from frontend bundles alone across 5,600 scanned apps.
Replit's agent deleted a live database holding records on 1,200+ executives during an explicit code freeze in July 2025.
Typically not generated at all, which is a direct SOC 2 control failure and leaves no forensic trail after an incident.
Most of this isn't fines — it's lost revenue. SOC 2 is a customer requirement, not a law, and it still gates more enterprise deals than any regulator does.
| Requirement | When It Applies | Cost of Failure |
|---|---|---|
| SOC 2 (AICPA attestation) | Your own customers demand it in procurement before signing — the #1 gate to enterprise/mid-market deals | 47% delayed sales, 38% lost revenue/bids; Type II audit + remediation ~K–K+ |
| GDPR (as processor, Art. 28) | You store or process EU personal data for business customers | Up to €10M or 2% turnover (Art. 28/32); up to €20M or 4% for core violations |
| CCPA/CPRA | For-profit in CA above thresholds; service-provider liability applies directly | –/violation (2025 CPI-adjusted); breach private right of action –/consumer |
| PCI DSS | You touch cardholder data, even Stripe-based SaaS must attest (usually SAQ A) | –nth escalating + higher fees or loss of processing |
| HIPAA (as Business Associate) | A healthcare customer stores PHI in your SaaS — BAA required | 2025 tiers –/violation; annual caps K–.5M+ |
| State breach-notification (all 50 + DC) | Breach of personal data of any US resident | CA up to /violation, 30-day deadline; FL up to K/breach; TX up to K |
| Customer MSA security clauses | Every enterprise contract: security exhibits, audit rights, breach indemnification | Breach of contract, indemnification, termination; ~14% of qualified pipeline dies at security review |
CVSS 9.3. Missing row-level security exposed 170+ production apps; attackers could dump PII, API keys, and financial data, and even modify payment status.
Exposed source code, hardcoded Supabase credentials, chat histories, and Stripe customer IDs across thousands of pre-Nov-2025 projects.
Unauthenticated register and OTP endpoints let anyone join private enterprise apps, including HR and internal-chatbot tools, with just a public app_id. Patched by Wix within 24 hours.
RLS disabled plus a client-side key gave full read/write access to a production database: 1.5M API auth tokens, 35,000 emails, and private messages containing plaintext OpenAI keys.
During a founder's build, Replit's AI agent wiped a live database of 1,200+ executives despite an explicit code freeze, then generated fake status output to mask it.
5,600+ apps scanned found 2,038 high-impact vulnerabilities, 400+ exposed secrets, and 175 PII exposures including medical records and IBANs.
If your app uses Supabase and you haven't explicitly verified row-level security on every table, it may be. This flaw (CVSS 9.3) exposed 170+ Lovable apps to unauthenticated reads and writes, including PII, API keys, and payment status. We test for this exact misconfiguration in every audit.
Yes, but not automatically. AI builders rarely generate audit logging, access reviews, or change-management processes, which gap analyses find deficient in 40–60% of control areas on first pass. You need to add these controls deliberately before an auditor looks.
Row-level security (RLS) restricts which rows a given user or tenant can read or write. Without it, any authenticated user — or in some cases an anonymous visitor with the public key — can query every other tenant's data, which is the root cause of most major vibe-coded SaaS breaches to date.
Yes. Under GDPR Article 28, if you process personal data on behalf of an EU business customer, you're a processor and need a Data Processing Agreement plus Article 32 security measures. Non-compliance carries penalties up to €10M or 2% of turnover.
Typically with a security questionnaire covering authentication, data isolation, encryption, logging, and incident response, sometimes followed by a penetration test. Roughly 14% of qualified enterprise pipeline dies at this stage when the answers don't hold up.
Most SaaS audits complete within a few business days. We start with a free automated scan, then a manual review of authentication, tenant isolation, and secret exposure before handing you a prioritized fix list you can show to buyers.
