The _generate_token() method uses an insecure approach as mentioned in the repository context. It generates a simple SHA256 hash without proper cryptographic signing, expiration validation, or revocation mechanisms. This makes it vulnerable to tampering and replay attacks. Consider using a standard like JWT with proper signing and expiration.

Suggested change

	def _generate_token(self, username: str) -> str:
	raw = f"{username}:{time.time()}:{secrets.token_hex(16)}"
	return hashlib.sha256(raw.encode()).hexdigest()
	def _generate_token(self, username: str) -> str:
	# Use a proper JWT library instead of custom token implementation
	import jwt
	import datetime
	payload = {
	'sub': username,
	'iat': datetime.datetime.utcnow(),
	'exp': datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(hours=1),
	'jti': secrets.token_hex(16)
	}
	return jwt.encode(payload, secrets.token_bytes(32), algorithm='HS256')

The login method returns None for both failed password verification and non-existent users. This can leak information about whether a username exists in the system. Consider using a consistent response time and error message to prevent username enumeration attacks.

Suggested change

	def login(self, username: str, password: str) -> Optional[str]:
	user = self.db.get_user(username)
	if not user:
	return None
	if self._verify_password(password, user.password_hash):
	token = self._generate_token(username)
	return token
	return None
	def login(self, username: str, password: str) -> Optional[str]:
	user = self.db.get_user(username)
	# Always verify against a hash even if user doesn't exist to prevent timing attacks
	if not user:
	# Use a dummy verification with consistent timing
	self._verify_password(password, self._hash_password('dummy'))
	return None
	if self._verify_password(password, user.password_hash):
	token = self._generate_token(username)
	return token
	return None

The UserService class doesn't implement any rate limiting for login attempts. This makes it vulnerable to brute force attacks. Consider implementing rate limiting for failed login attempts.

Suggested change

	class UserService:
	def __init__(self, db: UserDB):
	self.db = db
	self.logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
	def register(self, username: str, password: str) -> None:
	class UserService:
	def __init__(self, db: UserDB):
	self.db = db
	self.logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
	self.failed_attempts = {}
	self.max_attempts = 5
	self.lockout_time = 300 # seconds
	def _check_rate_limit(self, username: str) -> bool:
	"""Check if user is rate limited."""
	current_time = time.time()
	if username in self.failed_attempts:
	attempts, lockout_until = self.failed_attempts[username]
	if current_time < lockout_until:
	return False # User is locked out
	if current_time - lockout_until > self.lockout_time:
	# Reset if lockout period has passed
	del self.failed_attempts[username]
	return True # Not rate limited

The UserDB protocol doesn't define error handling behavior for database operations. Consider defining how implementers should handle database errors.

Suggested change

	class UserDB(Protocol):
	def get_user(self, username: str) -> Optional[User]: ...
	def save_user(self, user: User) -> None: ...
	class UserDB(Protocol):
	def get_user(self, username: str) -> Optional[User]:
	"""Retrieve a user by username.
	Returns None if user doesn't exist.
	Raises DatabaseError for connection or query errors.
	"""
	...
	def save_user(self, user: User) -> None:
	"""Save a user to the database.
	Raises DatabaseError for connection or query errors.
	"""
	...
	def delete_user(self, username: str) -> None:
	"""Delete a user from the database.
	Raises DatabaseError for connection or query errors.
	"""
	...

Sensitive operations like user registration and deletion are only logged but don't require additional verification or authorization. Consider implementing a more robust authorization mechanism for these operations.

Suggested change

	def register(self, username: str, password: str) -> None:
	if self.db.get_user(username):
	raise ValueError("Username already taken")
	hashed = self._hash_password(password)
	self.db.save_user(User(username, hashed))
	self.logger.info("Registered user: %s", username)
	def register(self, username: str, password: str, admin_token: Optional[str] = None) -> None:
	"""Register a new user.
	Args:
	username: The username for the new user
	password: The password for the new user
	admin_token: Optional admin token for privileged operations
	Raises:
	ValueError: If username is already taken
	PermissionError: If admin_token is required but invalid
	"""
	# Check if this operation requires admin privileges in your system
	if self._requires_admin_privileges("register") and not self._verify_admin_token(admin_token):
	raise PermissionError("Admin privileges required for user registration")
	if self.db.get_user(username):
	raise ValueError("Username already taken")
	hashed = self._hash_password(password)
	self.db.save_user(User(username, hashed))
	self.logger.info("Registered user: %s", username)

The User class only contains username and password_hash, lacking important user metadata like creation date, last login, account status (active/locked), etc. Consider enhancing the User model with these attributes.

Suggested change

	class User:
	def __init__(self, username: str, password_hash: str):
	self.username = username
	self.password_hash = password_hash
	class User:
	def __init__(self, username: str, password_hash: str):
	self.username = username
	self.password_hash = password_hash
	self.created_at = time.time()
	self.last_login = None
	self.login_attempts = 0
	self.status = "active" # active, locked, disabled
	self.roles = ["user"] # default role

The password hashing iteration count is hardcoded as 100_000. As per the repository context, this is a critical security parameter that should be configurable and should not be decreased in future updates. Consider making this configurable but with a secure default.

Suggested change

	def _hash_password(self, password: str) -> str:
	salt = secrets.token_bytes(16)
	digest = hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac('sha256', password.encode(), salt, 100_000)
	return salt.hex() + ":" + digest.hex()
	def __init__(self, db: UserDB, password_iterations: int = 100_000):
	self.db = db
	self.logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
	# Ensure iterations is never decreased below the secure default
	self.password_iterations = max(password_iterations, 100_000)
	def _hash_password(self, password: str) -> str:
	salt = secrets.token_bytes(16)
	digest = hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac('sha256', password.encode(), salt, self.password_iterations)
	return salt.hex() + ":" + digest.hex()
