sast-graphql

sast-graphql is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from utkusen/sast-skills. It costs 123 tokens per session (4,535 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-security check for finding GraphQL injection, where user-controlled text changes the structure of a GraphQL request.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to confirm GraphQL usage, find unsafe request construction, verify whether user input reaches those locations, and combine the findings into a report.
Why use it?
It traces input through a codebase to identify places where attackers might alter GraphQL operations instead of supplying ordinary variable values.

About the project

SAST Skills is a collection of agent workflows that inspect web and mobile application code for security vulnerabilities, where SAST means static application security testing. Developers and security reviewers use it to map a codebase, verify possible flaws, and produce a severity-ranked remediation report. The catalogue entries are the project's vulnerability-detection and reporting skills.

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

sast-graphql 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 11d 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.

Sends data to an external URLlowData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

const data = await fetch('https://api.internal/graphql', { method: 'POST',

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.

GraphQL Injection Detection

You are performing a focused security assessment to find GraphQL injection vulnerabilities. This skill uses a three-phase approach with subagents: recon (confirm GraphQL usage and find every location where a GraphQL operation document is assembled unsafely), batched verify (trace whether user-supplied input reaches those assembly sites, in parallel batches of up to 3 sites each), and merge (consolidate batch results into the final report).

Prerequisites: sast/architecture.md must exist. Run the analysis skill first if it doesn't.


What is GraphQL Injection

GraphQL injection occurs when user-controlled data is embedded into the GraphQL document (the query, mutation, or subscription string) rather than passed only through the variables map. The parser then interprets attacker-controlled syntax — new fields, aliases, directives, or fragments — which can bypass intent, reach unauthorized resolvers, or change server-side behavior when that document is executed or forwarded.

The core pattern: unvalidated user input alters the structure or text of the GraphQL operation string passed to execute, graphql, a gateway client, or an HTTP body query field built from string operations.

What GraphQL Injection IS

  • Concatenating or interpolating user input into an operation string: `query { user(id: "${id}") { name } }`, "query { user(id: \"" + id + "\") { name } }"
  • Building the JSON query field for a downstream GraphQL HTTP request with string concat from request body or params
  • Forwarding req.body.query (or similar) into another interpolated template that wraps or extends the operation
  • Dynamic gql / graphql-tag template literals where a non-static expression changes document structure (not just a bound variable value inside a static document)
  • Server-side code that selects or assembles operation text from user input (including "persisted query" ID → document maps without allowlisting)
  • Wrappers around graphql.execute(), graphqlHTTP, Yoga/Apollo request pipeline where the first argument (document/source) is built from variables that could be user-influenced

sast-graphql is a skill published in the GitHub repository utkusen/sast-skills (1,307 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 123 tokens to every session and 4,535 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
