Post Description

I built a lightweight CLI tool for Django and Django REST Framework projects to help detect common security issues early in development.

It focuses on problems like:

unsafe production settings exposed or misconfigured APIs missing security configurations common security risks in Django projects

The goal is to make security checks simple and part of everyday development or CI workflows.

Lumina – passive OSINT recon tool for domains

Pulls together passive sources — crt.sh, Wayback, GitHub search, Shodan and Hunter — into a single HTML+JSON output so you can run recon without touching the target. It isn't reinventing OSINT, but the combination of multi-source subdomain enumeration, built-in WHOIS/JSON export and a ready-to-share dark report plus Docker support makes it an immediately useful tool for quick triage.
