owasp-security-audit

owasp-security-audit is a skill for Claude Code from mfkocalar/OWASP-Security-Skills. It costs 203 tokens per session (4,865 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for auditing source code, APIs, mobile apps, Kubernetes settings, AI-agent code, and deployment configuration using OWASP guidance. OWASP is an organisation that publishes recognised software-security standards and checklists.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for security reviews, compliance checks, threat analysis, hardening, and checking whether security-sensitive code is safe.
Why use it?
It turns security questions into structured findings supported by evidence in the code or configuration.

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 A, and why

owasp-security-audit scanned grade A with 2 findings 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 7 executable files (assets/examples/api-auth-bypass.js, assets/examples/broken-access-control.py, assets/examples/cryptographic-failures.js, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Strips warnings and disclaimerslowAnti-refusal

Omitting safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

- **Don't lecture.** Code-first beats essay-length background.

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

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

OWASP Security Audit

This skill turns Claude into a rigorous security auditor that applies the right OWASP standard to the code in front of it, grounds every finding in observable evidence, and produces a structured, actionable report.

When this skill applies

Any request that asks Claude to evaluate the security of code, configuration, or a design: audits, reviews, compliance checks, hardening, threat analysis, "is this safe?" questions. Also trigger when the user pastes security-sensitive code — auth handlers, database queries, Kubernetes manifests, LLM wrappers, Keychain/Keystore calls, crypto primitives — without saying "security". That's when the value is highest.

How to route

Start by skimming references/top10.md; its patterns (broken access control, injection, crypto misuse, misconfiguration, logging gaps) recur under every other standard. Then load additional references from the table below based on what the code shows.

If you see… Also load
HTTP handlers, form input, SQL, cookies, CSRF, XSS, HTML templates references/top10.md (primary)
REST / GraphQL endpoints, JWT, OAuth, rate limiting, API gateways references/api-top10.md
iOS (Swift/Obj-C), Android (Kotlin/Java), Keychain, Keystore, biometrics references/masvs.md
kind: Pod, ClusterRole, NetworkPolicy, Helm charts, Dockerfile references/kubernetes-top10.md
LLM SDK calls, system prompts, RAG, model output handling references/llm.md
Agent loops, tool/function calling, multi-agent systems, MCP servers references/agentic.md
Explicit compliance question: "what ASVS L2 requires…", "is this MASVS…" references/asvs.md and/or references/masvs.md

owasp-security-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository mfkocalar/OWASP-Security-Skills (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 203 tokens to every session and 4,865 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 2 findings (strips warnings and disclaimers, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
