I've been diving into some projects lately, trying to build quickly and deploy even faster—just classic vibe coding. But now that I've put a few things out there, I'm feeling really uneasy about their security. For instance, I accidentally left my API keys out in the open for hours before noticing, and I've also struggled with some troublesome CORS issues on a Flask backend. I'm not expecting to be a security expert, but I want to avoid shipping solutions that might break as soon as someone else gets their hands on them. Does anyone else experience these kinds of security concerns when working fast on MVPs?

We’ve got to face it: vibe coding will lead to these kinds of issues. The key is to start considering the security implications as you go. It’s not an easy fix, but there are emerging frameworks aimed at proving security that could change the game for developers.
Look, security is really tricky these days. It's not just about what practices you follow; even well-built systems can be exposed due to third-party vulnerabilities. Once you're open on the internet, things can go wrong fast, regardless of how careful you are.
I hope this isn’t serious—it just seems like a satire of the whole vibe coding disaster. Security isn't something to joke about after all!
If you don’t fully understand the code you’ve deployed, it’s likely insecure by default. No shortcuts here!
Honestly, just throw a 'please be secure' at your coding prompts and you’ll vibe through it like a pro! But seriously, security can feel overwhelming when you’re rushing to get things out.
Just vibing by... cheers!
Exactly! Even if you do everything right, there’s always the chance of a surprise attack from some hidden backdoor.
