🔍 Odoo API Security Scanner

Scan Custom Controllers for Common API Vulnerabilities

Audit your custom API endpoints using static AST-based security checks—directly inside Odoo.

📘 Overview

Odoo API Security Scanner is a developer-friendly tool that statically analyzes your custom modules for common security flaws in API-facing code. It is optimized for Odoo 18 and fully integrated into the backend UI.

  • ✔️ Scans only custom-installed modules
  • ✔️ No CLI required — run scans from the UI
  • ✔️ Modular rule-based engine — easily extendable
  • ✔️ Read-only and safe for production databases

🔐 What It Detects

  • eval() or exec() calls
  • Public endpoints lacking ACL checks
  • Use of sudo() in controllers
  • Hardcoded secrets in Python code
  • model.read() without explicit fields

All issues are stored and categorized by severity with source line and context.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

  • Which modules are scanned? Only custom, installed modules — to avoid false positives.
  • Does it scan Odoo controllers only? Yes — the focus is on public route methods, not models.
  • Can I add my own checks? Yes — the scanner engine is modular and easy to extend.
