nextjs-react

nextjs-react is a skill for Claude Code from allsmog/vuln-scout. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,277 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A security review guide for Next.js and React applications, covering code that runs in the browser and on the server. It focuses on features such as Server Components, Server Actions, route handlers, and server-side rendering.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review Next.js or React code for issues in Server Actions, route handlers, middleware, server rendering, and other client- and server-side attack surfaces.
Why use it?
It helps find security problems across both the user-facing code and the server code, including areas that are easy to miss when reviewing only one side of the application.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

nextjs-react scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Cloud metadata endpointmediumServer-side request forgery

One request to 169.254.169.254 can return temporary IAM credentials.

| Server Action SSRF | Cloud metadata (169.254.169.254) |

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Attack Surface Categories

1. Server Actions ("use server")

  • SSRF via redirect() with Host header manipulation
  • Insecure direct object references
  • Missing authentication/authorization
  • SQL injection in database operations

2. Route Handlers (app/api/**/route.ts)

  • Unauthenticated API endpoints
  • Mass assignment vulnerabilities
  • Rate limiting bypass
  • CORS misconfiguration

3. Server Components

  • Data exposure in serialized props
  • Sensitive data in __NEXT_DATA__
  • Server-side XSS in rendered content

4. Middleware

  • Path-based bypass (normalization)
  • Authentication bypass
  • Header injection

5. Client Components

  • XSS via unsanitized rendering
  • Prototype pollution
  • Open redirects

Detection Workflow

Step 1: Map the Application

# Find all Server Actions
grep -rn '"use server"' --include="*.ts" --include="*.tsx"

# Find all Route Handlers
find . -path "*/app/api/*" \( -name "route.ts" -o -name "route.js" \)

# Find middleware
find . -name "middleware.ts" -o -name "middleware.js"

# Find page components
find ./app -name "page.tsx" -o -name "page.js"

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

nextjs-react is a skill published in the GitHub repository allsmog/vuln-scout (24 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 1,277 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (cloud metadata endpoint). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
