SECURITY TESTING FOR E-COMMERCE APPS

Indie hackers ship Shopify apps, Gumroad storefronts, and custom e-commerce sites with Lovable and Bolt every day. These vibe-coded stores often ship with price tampering, cart manipulation, and payment data exposure that put your revenue at risk. VibeEval catches the vulnerabilities AI coding leaves behind.

Why security matters for e-commerce apps

E-commerce Apps handle sensitive data and business-critical operations. A single vulnerability can lead to data breaches, financial loss, and damaged reputation. VibeEval automatically tests for the most common security issues specific to e-commerce apps.

Top vulnerabilities in e-commerce apps

Payment Data Exposure

Credit card numbers, CVVs, or payment tokens stored insecurely or transmitted without encryption, creating serious payment data vulnerabilities that can lead to massive data breaches.

Price Tampering

Client-side price values sent to the server without validation, allowing attackers to modify prices before checkout by intercepting API requests.

Cart Manipulation

Shopping cart logic that can be exploited to apply invalid discounts, duplicate promotions, or bypass quantity limits through direct API calls.

Inventory Manipulation

Race conditions in stock management that allow overselling or reserving items indefinitely to deny legitimate customers access.

Order Data IDOR

Sequential or predictable order IDs that let attackers view other customers order details, addresses, and payment information by changing the ID in the URL.

Insecure Coupon Logic

Discount codes that can be brute-forced, reused beyond limits, or stacked in unintended ways to get products for free or at extreme discounts.

Frequently asked questions

How does VibeEval test for payment data vulnerabilities?

VibeEval tests for common payment security issues like unencrypted card data transmission, client-side storage of sensitive payment info, and exposed payment endpoints. It catches the most critical vulnerabilities in vibe-coded stores.

Can VibeEval detect price tampering vulnerabilities?

Yes. VibeEval intercepts checkout requests and tests whether price values can be modified client-side. It also checks for missing server-side price validation on cart and order endpoints.

Does VibeEval test payment gateway integrations?

VibeEval tests how your app communicates with payment gateways like Stripe and PayPal, checking for exposed API keys, insecure webhook handling, and missing signature verification.

How often should I scan my e-commerce app?

Scan after every deployment, especially changes to checkout, payment, or user account flows. E-commerce apps are high-value targets and new vulnerabilities can appear with any code change.

Can attackers really change prices in my store?

If your app sends prices from the client to the server without validation, yes. This is one of the most common vulnerabilities in AI-generated e-commerce code. VibeEval specifically tests for this.
