What it detects

FastAPI route without an authentication dependency: an authentication check run by the semgrep analyzer.

Evidence

The Semgrep source location, rule identity, and bounded match context normalized into Fendix evidence.

Remediation

FastAPI route has no authentication dependency (Depends(...)). Inject a dependency such as Depends(get_current_user), as a route parameter or in dependencies=[...], to enforce auth.

Limitations

This check is limited to the applicability and evidence delivered by semgrep. Review the evidence in context; a match is a finding input, while confidence and policy determine its disposition.
