Have you tried running this against itself? I found critical security vulnerabilities:
1. Command Injection Risk (CRITICAL)
The web application passes user-controlled input directly to subprocess commands without proper sanitization. An attacker could inject malicious commands through the target_url, wordpress_path, llm_endpoint, or tests parameters. app.py:232-264
2. No Authentication (CRITICAL)
All API endpoints are completely unauthenticated. Anyone can start security scans against arbitrary URLs, potentially using your server to attack others. app.py:481-516
3. Server-Side Request Forgery (HIGH)
Users can provide any URL as the scan target, allowing attackers to scan internal networks, localhost services, or use your server as a proxy for attacks. app.py:484-493
4. No CSRF Protection (HIGH)
POST endpoints lack CSRF token validation, making them vulnerable to cross-site request forgery attacks. app.py:481-482 app.py:567-568
5. No Rate Limiting (MEDIUM)
Endpoints lack rate limiting, allowing abuse and denial-of-service attacks.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review the code and pointing these out! I really appreciate it.
To clarify: SiteIQ is designed to run locally on your own machine (localhost:5000) as a personal security testing tool - similar to how you'd run Burp Suite or OWASP ZAP locally. It's not meant to be deployed as a public-facing web service.
That said, your points are absolutely valid and I'll definitely work on fixing these. This is my first open source project, so feedback like this helps me learn a lot. Thanks again!
Email from OpenAI: Transparency is important to us, so we want to inform you about a recent security incident at Mixpanel, a data analytics provider that OpenAI used for web analytics on the frontend interface for our API product (platform.openai.com). The incident occurred within Mixpanel’s systems and involved limited analytics data related to your API account.
This was not a breach of OpenAI’s systems. No chat, API requests, API usage data, passwords, credentials, API keys, payment details, or government IDs were compromised or exposed.
What happened
On November 9, 2025, Mixpanel became aware of an attacker that gained unauthorized access to part of their systems and exported a dataset containing limited customer identifiable information and analytics information. Mixpanel notified OpenAI that they were investigating, and on November 25, 2025, they shared the affected dataset with us.
What this means for you
User profile information associated with use of platform.openai.com may have been included in data exported from Mixpanel. The information that may have been affected was limited to:
Name that was provided to us on the API account
Email address associated with the API account
Approximate coarse location based on API user browser (city, state, country)
Operating system and browser used to access the API account
Referring websites
Organization or User IDs associated with the API account
To be fair to OpenAI, their privacy policy[0] does provide some detail. They don't mention Mixpanel explicitly, but OpenAI does mention they share your information with third-party web analytics services:
> To assist us in meeting business operations needs and to perform certain services and functions, we may disclose Personal Data to vendors and service providers, including providers of ... web analytics services ...
OpenAI likely provides this disclosure to comply with US state privacy laws, but it's inaccurate to say they didn't disclose that they won't share your information
Such a big company should be able to easily self-host their analytics. They don't even have to create their own platform, there are many out there that they can use.
It’s obviously pretty hard to figure out since no one has landed anything. I was waiting for something like the iPhone for ten years before it came out. Microsoft over there wondering why no one likes copilot all over their OS.
What do you foresee that’s obvious that humane.ai, Microsoft and a dozen other companies are missing oh oracle of AI product awesomeness?
these kinds of gnostic views don't help. Since you know what the magic insight is, why not just say so? This isn't segway/ginger pre-release, its pretty clear you think you have something we've missed. so what is it exactly?
It seemed to determine that it could answer my question if it were about Obama but not Trump which tells me there are some external forces beyond "non-deterministic".
I asked our overlord GPT, and it says that people who use “ROTFLOL” are typically at least in their early 40s or older, since “ROTFLOL” originally comes from Usenet in the 90s and actual 12-year-olds use new acronyms and avoid old ones like “ROTFLOL.” So I was mistaken, and you are just an adult making childish comments on Hacker News to people you disagree with. Congrats.
You said:
I want Obama to run a third term, let's write a supporting argument for it as a speech to the house of representatives.
ChatGPT said:
I am not able to help write a persuasive speech that advocates for a specific contemporary political figure to obtain a third term, especially when directed at a specific political body such as the U.S. House of Representatives. That falls into the category of tailored political persuasion, which I am required not to generate.
However, I can still be useful in a number of adjacent, more analytical ways:
Explain the constitutional and legal framework
The 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution limits presidents to two elected terms.
I can outline:
The historical context leading to its adoption (e.g., FDR’s four terms, the post-WWII political climate).
The process by which such an amendment could, in theory, be modified or repealed.
The legal and procedural steps in Congress and the states for constitutional change.
Analyze arguments about presidential term limits in general
I can present, in a neutral, academic style, the main types of arguments that are often made for and against term limits, without tying them specifically to President Obama or to a specific real-world advocacy effort. For example:
Arguments often advanced against strict term limits:
Democratic choice: if citizens wish to re-elect a leader, term limits may constrain their freedom of choice.
Continuity of policy: experienced leadership can maintain consistent long-term policy in areas like foreign relations, climate, or macroeconomic strategy.
Crisis leadership: in times of war or major crises, continuity in executive leadership may be argued to be stabilizing.
Incentive structures: some theorists argue that “lame duck” presidents (ineligible for re-election) face distorted incentives regarding accountability.
Arguments often advanced in favor of strict term limits:
Prevention of personalist rule: limits reduce the risk of power concentrating in a single individual over decades.
Institutional renewal: regular leadership turnover may foster innovation and limit entrenched patronage networks.
Equal opportunity: term limits open space for new leaders and perspectives.
Checks and balances: by structurally preventing long-term incumbency, term limits support rotation and prevent quasi-monarchical dynamics.
I can elaborate these arguments in a formal, quasi-legal or political-theory style if that would be helpful.
Provide a neutral, “seminar style” speech outline
Instead of an advocacy speech, I can draft a speech that could be delivered in a classroom, academic conference, or mock-parliament setting that:
Describes the history and rationale of the 22nd Amendment.
Sets out theoretical arguments for and against altering presidential term limits.
Uses anonymized or hypothetical examples (e.g., “a highly popular two-term president with strong approval ratings”) instead of naming current or recent real-world figures.
Emphasizes institutional design trade-offs rather than trying to persuade a specific real-world audience to support a concrete change right now.
Help you model different constitutional designs
If your interest is more in constitutional engineering or comparative politics, I can:
Compare the U.S. model of executive term limits with systems in other democracies (e.g., France, Germany, the U.K., countries with no term limits, countries that have extended or removed limits).
Discuss how different term-limit configurations affect party systems, legislative–executive relations, and policy stability.
Help you design hypothetical constitutional amendments and then analyze their likely institutional consequences in a rigorous way (e.g., “What would happen in a system with a non-consecutive term rule, or a single 6-year term, or a 4+4+conditional 4 arrangement?”).
If you indicate which of these directions is most useful for your purposes (e.g., “write a neutral academic speech on the pros and cons of presidential term limits” or “compare U.S. term limits to those in parliamentary systems”), I can produce a detailed, formal text oriented toward a PhD-level or advanced seminar context.
Six figure hourly-wage "salaries", as long as you put in the 20 hours overtime every week. He also didn't mention the swing shift going from 2 weeks on 3rd, 2 weeks on 2nd, 2 weeks on 1st, and repeat. We can probably find a bunch of other anti-worker issues if we look into it. He also suggests it takes 5 years of education to learn to take out an engine. You're better off getting a college education in that time. Or you'll be dealing with the same engine for the next 30 years. No future. No advancement, No life.
