🔒 Security Features

Authentication Flow

1. SMS OTP Request

   • User enters phone number
   • System generates 6-digit OTP (crypto.randomInt)
   • OTP stored in PostgreSQL with 5-minute expiration
   • SMS sent (mock in dev, real in prod)

2. OTP Verification

   • User enters OTP code
   • System validates against PostgreSQL
   • Max 3 attempts before lockout
   • IP address logged for audit

3. PIN Setup (first-time users)

   • User creates 4-6 digit PIN
   • Validated against weak patterns (1234, 1111, etc.)
   • Hashed with Argon2id (64MB memory, 3 iterations)
   • Stored in PostgreSQL

4. PIN Login (returning users)

   • User enters phone + PIN
   • PIN verified against Argon2 hash
   • Max 5 attempts per 15 minutes
   • Session created with HTTP-only cookie

Rate Limiting

Security Headers

• X-Frame-Options: DENY
• X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
• X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
• Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin
• Strict-Transport-Security (production only)
• Content-Security-Policy

🧪 Testing

# Type checking
npm run check

# Linting
npm run lint

# Format code
npm run format

# Build for production
npm run build

🚀 Production Deployment

1. Generate Secrets

# Generate SESSION_SECRET
openssl rand -base64 32

# Update .env.production
SESSION_SECRET=<generated_key>
DB_USER=prod_user_$(openssl rand -hex 4)
DB_PASSWORD=$(openssl rand -base64 24)

2. Switch to Redis (Recommended)

Edit src/lib/server/auth/sms-bff.ts:

// Replace:
import { MemorySessionStore } from "./stores/memory";
this.sessionStore = sessionStore ?? new MemorySessionStore();

// With:
import { RedisSessionStore } from "./stores/redis";
this.sessionStore = sessionStore ?? new RedisSessionStore();

Add Redis to docker-compose.yml:

services:
  redis:
    image: redis:7-alpine
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"
    command: redis-server --requirepass ${REDIS_PASSWORD}

3. Configure Real SMS Provider

Update src/lib/server/sms/index.ts:

import { RealSMSProvider } from "./real-provider";

export const smsProvider = new RealSMSProvider({
  apiKey: process.env.SMS_API_KEY!,
  apiUrl: process.env.SMS_API_URL!,
});

4. Deploy

npm run build
npm run preview
