- 1. Configuration loaded from environment variables to avoid hardcoding secrets.\n2. app.config['DEBUG'] set to False to prevent stack traces disclosure.\n3. Added require_api_key decorator to enforce authentication via X-API-KEY header.\n4. Input validation on /generate_recipe: ensure 'ingredients' is present and properly formatted.\n5. Sanitized ingredient strings and built an explicit prompt, avoiding injection via system/user roles.\n6. Wrapped OpenAI API call in try/except to handle service errors gracefully.\n7. For file uploads: used secure_filename, validated extension against ALLOWED_EXTENSIONS, created upload folder safely.\n8. Added GET endpoint to serve files with validation.\n9. Removed debug-mode and recommended using production WSGI server.
- Confidence: HIGH
