Description
GitProxy currently has built-in support for `gitleaks`, but configuring and maintaining it can be cumbersome. The default git-proxy configuration allows certain issues — such as credentials embedded in database URLs — to slip through undetected.
We’ve implemented an alternative scanning approach that uses GPT-5 Codex (you can define the model in the config) to detect security problems more reliably.
Our implementation extracts and reports:
- Vulnerability type
- File path
- Line numbers and a relevant code snippet
- Explanation of why this is a security issue
- Suggested fix
This has been effective in catching issues and informing the user what is wrong and how to resolve it.
I can open a PR to share this implementation if there’s interest from the community.
