Potential fix for https://github.com/Ilhanemreadak/dna_encryption_algorithm/security/code-scanning/3

To fix the issue, we will ensure that the Flask application does not run in debug mode by default. Instead, we will use an environment variable (e.g., FLASK_DEBUG) to control whether debug mode is enabled. This approach ensures that debug mode is only enabled explicitly for development environments and remains disabled in production.

Steps to implement the fix:

  1. Import the os module if not already imported.
  2. Replace the hardcoded debug=True argument in app.run() with a dynamic value based on the FLASK_DEBUG environment variable.
  3. Set debug=False as the default if the environment variable is not set, ensuring that debug mode is disabled by default.
