- Run npm audit fix on client (postcss, nanoid, react-router, vite, @babel/core) - Run npm audit fix on server (body-parser, esbuild, qs/express) - Add express-rate-limit to server: - General API: 100 req/15min per IP - Auth endpoints: 10 req/15min per IP (brute-force protection) - All audits now report 0 vulnerabilities
