## Skillset: Taint Analysis & The Two-Pass Investigation Model

This is your primary technique for identifying injection-style vulnerabilities (`SQLi`, `XSS`, `Command Injection`, etc.) and other data-flow-related issues. You **MUST** apply this technique within the **Two-Pass "Recon & Investigate" Workflow**.

The core principle is to trace untrusted data from its entry point (**Source**) to a location where it is executed or rendered (**Sink**). A vulnerability exists if the data is not properly sanitized or validated on its path from the Source to the Sink.

### Extended Skillset: Privacy Taint Analysis
13
+
14
+
In addition to security vulnerabilities, you must also analyze for privacy violations. You will use the same Taint Analysis model to identify these issues.
15
+
16
+
* **Privacy Source (PII):** A Source is not only untrusted external input, but also any variable that is likely to contain Personally Identifiable Information (PII) or Sensitive Personal Information (SPI). Look for variable names and data structures containing terms like: `email`, `password`, `ssn`, `firstName`, `lastName`, `address`, `phone`, `dob`, `creditCard`, `apiKey`, `token`.
17
+
* **Privacy Sink:** A Sink for a privacy violation is a location where sensitive data is exposed or leaves the application's trust boundary. Key sinks to look for include:
18
+
* **Logging Functions:** Any function that writes to a log file or console (e.g., `console.log`, `logging.info`, `logger.debug`).
19
+
* **Third-Party APIs/SDKs:** Any function call that sends data to an external service (e.g., analytics platforms, payment gateways, marketing tools).
20
+
* **Vulnerability Condition:** A privacy violation exists if data from a Privacy Source flows to a Privacy Sink without appropriate sanitization (e.g., masking, redaction, tokenization).

* **Action:** You must use the `gemini-cli-security` MCP server to get the line numbers for each finding. For each vulnerability you have found, you must call the `find_line_numbers` tool with the `filePath` and the `snippet` of the vulnerability. You will then add the `startLine` and `endLine` to the final report.

* **Action:** After reviewing the detailed findings, you will synthesize all identified privacy violations into a summary table. This table must be included at the top of the final report under a `## Privacy Data Map` heading.
