  • Description: A detailed description of the vulnerability
  • Impact: The potential impact of the vulnerability
  • Steps to Reproduce: Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
  • Environment: Details about the environment where the vulnerability was discovered
  • Proof of Concept: If possible, provide a proof of concept

Response Time

  • Initial Response: Within 48 hours
  • Detailed Assessment: Within 7 days
  • Resolution Timeline: Depends on severity and complexity

Security Best Practices

For Developers

API Keys and Secrets

  • Never commit API keys, secrets, or sensitive configuration
  • Use environment variables for all sensitive data
  • Rotate secrets regularly
  • Use different secrets for development and production

Input Validation

  • Validate all input data
  • Sanitize user inputs
  • Use parameterized queries for database operations
  • Implement proper error handling

Dependencies

  • Keep dependencies updated
  • Use npm audit to check for known vulnerabilities
  • Review security advisories for dependencies
  • Pin dependency versions when possible

Authentication & Authorization

  • Implement proper authentication mechanisms
  • Use strong session management
  • Implement rate limiting
  • Use HTTPS for all communications

For Users

API Usage

  • Never expose API keys in client-side code
  • Use environment variables for API configuration
  • Implement proper error handling
  • Validate API responses

Data Protection

  • Don't cache sensitive API responses
  • Use secure storage for application data
  • Implement proper logging without sensitive data
  • Follow data protection regulations
