# Hasura Security Audit - Find Open Anonymous Roles (Nhost) Free (`renzomacar/nhost-security-auditor`) Actor

Audit any Hasura instance (self-hosted or Nhost) for tables with anonymous-role permissions, missing column filters, and unprotected mutations. Live GraphQL probe confirms what's exposed. HTML report with paste-ready permission snippets. Free.

## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Nhost / Hasura Security Auditor

**If your Hasura instance has the `anonymous` role enabled with empty row filters on any table, the entire table is publicly readable via a single GraphQL query right now.** This actor finds those leaks in 30 seconds.

> Scan any Hasura instance (or Nhost project) for permissive role permissions and confirm leaks live with an anonymous GraphQL query.

### Why

Hasura's permission model is powerful but easy to leave open: an `anonymous` role with an empty filter exposes the table to anyone, a `user` role without row-level filter lets every signed-up user touch every row, and public introspection lets attackers map the entire schema without auth.

### Output

- HTML report (key `REPORT`) — score, severity-ranked findings, fix snippet on each
- Dataset — every finding as a row
- SUMMARY — counts + active-probe stats

### Want a written report + Q&A support?

Free actor → you find leaks. **$29 lite tier** (top 3 critical fixes + written summary) or **$99 full audit** (every table's permissions across every role + 30-day Q&A + paste-ready bundle, 24h delivery). The CTA links inside the HTML report take you to Stripe.

# Actor input Schema

## `hasuraEndpoint` (type: `string`):

Base URL of your Hasura instance. Examples: https://my-app.hasura.app (self-hosted) OR https://abcdef.hasura.us-east-1.nhost.run (Nhost). DO NOT include /v1/graphql at the end.
## `hasuraAdminSecret` (type: `string`):

Find it in your Hasura console -> Settings, or Nhost dashboard -> Hasura -> Admin secret. Used ONLY for the metadata export call, never persisted to disk.
## `activeProbe` (type: `boolean`):

When ON (default), the auditor sends an anonymous GraphQL query against suspect tables to PROVE the leak live.
## `outputFormat` (type: `string`):

html-report saves a self-contained HTML to KV store key REPORT. json pushes only structured rows to the dataset. both does both.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "hasuraEndpoint": "https://my-app.hasura.app",
  "activeProbe": true,
  "outputFormat": "html-report"
}
````

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "hasuraEndpoint": "https://your-subdomain.hasura.us-east-1.nhost.run",
    "hasuraAdminSecret": ""
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("renzomacar/nhost-security-auditor").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("renzomacar/nhost-security-auditor").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print("💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/" + run["defaultDatasetId"])
