Issue 1

ID: 1

Issue: Typo in index view response text: "Youre" should be "You're".

File: examples/python/django/myapp/views.py

Line: 17

Fix:

def index(request):
    return HttpResponse("Hello, world. You're at the polls index.")

Explanation: Corrected the typo in the response text.

Issue 2

ID: 2

Issue: Potential SQL injection vulnerability in my_view.

File: examples/python/django/myapp/views.py

Line: 8

Fix:

def my_view(request):
    user_id = request.GET.get('user_id')
    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM myapp_mymodel WHERE id = %s", [user_id])
        row = cursor.fetchone()

Explanation: Used parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection.

Issue 3

ID: 3

Issue: Hardcoded secret key in settings.py.

File: examples/python/django/myproject/settings.py

Line: 15

Fix:

import os

SECRET_KEY = os.environ.get('DJANGO_SECRET_KEY', 'default-secret-key')

Explanation: Moved the secret key to an environment variable for better security.

Issue 4

ID: 4

Issue: Missing newline at the end of myapp/__init__.py.

File: examples/python/django/myapp/__init__.py

Line: 1

Fix:

# This file can be left empty

Explanation: Added a newline at the end of the file to follow best practices.

Issue 5

ID: 5

Issue: Missing use of parameterized queries in my_view.

File: examples/python/django/myapp/views.py

Line: 8

Fix:

def my_view(request):
    user_id = request.GET.get('user_id')
    with connection.cursor() as cursor:
        cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM myapp_mymodel WHERE id = %s", [user_id])
        row = cursor.fetchone()

Explanation: Used parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection.

General Review

The code introduces a basic Django project structure with essential configurations and views. However, there are significant security issues, including potential SQL injection and hardcoded secret keys. Additionally, there are minor readability and best practice issues such as typos and missing newlines. These issues should be addressed to ensure the code is secure and maintainable.
