Lovable Security

Lovable app security checklist before launch

Lovable can help founders ship quickly, but every production app still needs a security review. Use this checklist before you collect user data, take payment, or invite a larger audience.

Check Supabase and database access

Many Lovable projects use Supabase or a similar backend. Confirm that every table containing user data has clear ownership rules. A dashboard should never rely only on the frontend to hide another customer's data.

• Row-level security is enabled where needed.
• Policies match user ownership, team membership, or admin role.
• Service-role keys are never exposed in browser code.

Check secrets and integrations

Search the codebase and deployment settings for OpenAI keys, Stripe keys, database URLs, email provider tokens, and webhook secrets. Public frontend code should only contain values intended for public use.

Check auth and payment paths

• Protected pages redirect unauthenticated users.
• Admin pages require a server-verified role.
• Paid access is based on verified provider state, not a field the app trusts from the browser.

Check AI behavior

If your Lovable app includes AI, test what happens when a user asks it to ignore instructions, reveal hidden prompts, process sensitive data, or make repeated expensive requests. Add limits before launch.
