Fixes https://github.com/athrael-soju/ai-chatbot/security/code-scanning/3
To fix the problem, we need to replace the use of
Math.random()
in thegenerateUUID
function with a cryptographically secure random number generator. In Node.js, we can use thecrypto
module to achieve this. Specifically, we can usecrypto.randomBytes
to generate secure random bytes and then convert these bytes to a hexadecimal string to form the UUID.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
