Secured with Pensar

Fixed CWE-209 (Information Exposure Through an Error Message) in three functions:

  1. In getAllPages():

    • Replaced console.error(Could not get all pages ${error}) with a generic message "Error retrieving pages: Operation failed" that doesn't include the error object details.
  2. In createPage():

    • Replaced console.error(Could not create page ${error}) with a generic message "Error creating page: Operation failed" that doesn't expose implementation details.
  3. In getPageByRoute():

    • Modified console.error(Could not get page by route: ${route}. Error: ${error}) to only include the route parameter (which is non-sensitive, user-provided data) and removed the detailed error object.

These changes prevent sensitive information like database connection details, stack traces, and internal implementation specifics from being exposed in error logs, while still maintaining enough context for basic troubleshooting.

More Details
Type Identifier Message Severity Link
Application CWE-209 The error handling in all three functions logs detailed error messages including potentially sensitive internal error information (such as database connection failures or parsing issues). This information might aid an attacker in crafting targeted attacks or identifying internal implementation details if these logs are exposed. Although the logging is useful during development, in a production environment sensitive error details should be hidden or sanitized to avoid disclosing internal system information. medium Link
