We actively maintain security updates for the following versions:

Please DO NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

Instead, please report security issues by:

1. Email: Send details to the project maintainers via GitHub
2. Private Issue: Use GitHub's security advisory feature if available
3. Direct Contact: Contact repository administrators directly

Please include the following information:

• Type of issue (e.g. buffer overflow, SQL injection, cross-site scripting, etc.)
• Full paths of source file(s) related to the manifestation of the issue
• The location of the affected source code (tag/branch/commit or direct URL)
• Any special configuration required to reproduce the issue
• Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
• Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
• Impact of the issue, including how an attacker might exploit it

• CodeQL: Automated security scanning on all pull requests
• Dependency Scanning: Regular vulnerability detection
• License Compliance: Automated license validation

• Dependabot: Automated security updates
• Pin Dependencies: Critical dependencies pinned by hash
• Vulnerability Monitoring: Continuous monitoring of known CVEs

• Least Privilege: GitHub Actions use minimal required permissions
• Supply Chain Protection: All third-party actions pinned by commit hash
• Secure Workflows: No dangerous workflow patterns

• Container Security: Base images pinned to specific digests
• AWS IAM: Least privilege access controls
• Encryption: TLS 1.2+ for all communications

• Critical vulnerabilities: 24-48 hours
• High severity: 7 days
• Medium severity: 30 days
• Low severity: Next release cycle

This project undergoes regular security assessments:

• OpenSSF Scorecard: Monthly comprehensive security analysis
• Dependency Scanning: Weekly automated checks
• Static Analysis: On every pull request
• Security Reviews: Quarterly manual assessments

Security decisions follow these principles:

1. Defense in Depth: Multiple layers of security controls
2. Zero Trust: Verify all access and communications
3. Least Privilege: Minimum required access permissions
4. Continuous Monitoring: Real-time threat detection
5. Incident Response: Documented response procedures

• OpenSSF Scorecard - Security health metrics
• NIST Cybersecurity Framework - Security guidelines
• OWASP Top 10 - Common vulnerabilities
