🚨 Reporting a Vulnerability

We take security seriously! If you discover a security vulnerability in CodeCodePrism, please help us resolve it responsibly.

πŸ” Private Disclosure Process

For security vulnerabilities, please do NOT create public GitHub issues.

Instead, report security issues through one of these channels:

πŸ”’ GitHub Security Advisories (Preferred)

  • Use GitHub's [Private Vulnerability Reporting](https://github.com/rustic-ai /codeprism/security/advisories/new)
  • This provides a secure channel for disclosure and coordinated response

⏰ Response Timeline

We aim to respond to security reports promptly:

Stage Timeframe Description
Acknowledgment Within 24 hours Confirm receipt of report
Initial Assessment Within 72 hours Severity classification and validation
Investigation 1-7 days Detailed analysis by AI developer + human oversight
Fix Development 1-14 days AI generates fix with security review
Testing & Validation 1-3 days Comprehensive testing of fix
Release 1-2 days Coordinated disclosure and patch release

Complex vulnerabilities may require additional time with regular updates provided.

πŸ€– AI Developer + Human Oversight

Unique Security Approach:

Since CodeCodePrism is AI-generated, our security process involves:

  1. AI Developer Analysis: Initial vulnerability assessment and fix generation
  2. Human Security Review: Critical review of AI-generated security fixes
  3. Combined Testing: Both automated and human-verified security testing
  4. Coordinated Response: Human oversight ensures proper disclosure timing

This hybrid approach ensures the speed of AI development with the rigor of human security expertise.

πŸ† Recognition & Rewards

πŸŽ–οΈ Security Hall of Fame

We maintain a public acknowledgment of security researchers who responsibly disclose vulnerabilities:

  • Hall of Fame: Public recognition in our security documentation
  • GitHub Profile: Special contributor badge (when available)
  • Project Credits: Acknowledgment in release notes and project documentation

πŸ’° Bug Bounty (Future)

We're exploring a bug bounty program for:

  • Critical vulnerabilities: Significant rewards for severe issues
  • Novel attack vectors: Extra recognition for creative discoveries
  • AI-specific vulnerabilities: Special focus on AI-generated code security

πŸ” Security Scope

βœ… In Scope

We're interested in vulnerabilities affecting:

Core Components

  • MCP Server: JSON-RPC implementation, protocol handling
  • Code Parsers: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python parsing vulnerabilities
  • Graph Engine: AST processing and graph construction
  • File System Access: Repository scanning and file reading
  • Memory Safety: Rust memory safety violations

Attack Vectors

  • Malicious Repositories: Crafted code that exploits parsing
  • MCP Protocol Abuse: JSON-RPC injection or manipulation
  • Resource Exhaustion: DoS through excessive resource consumption
  • Path Traversal: Unauthorized file system access
  • Code Injection: Through analysis of malicious code

❌ Out of Scope

The following are generally not considered security vulnerabilities:

  • Feature Requests: Suggestions for new functionality
  • Performance Issues: Unless they enable DoS attacks
  • Analysis Accuracy: Incorrect code analysis results
  • Documentation Issues: Errors in documentation
  • Third-party Dependencies: Issues in upstream libraries (report to them directly)
  • Social Engineering: Attacks against users, not the software

πŸ” Security Best Practices

🏒 For Organizations Using CodeCodePrism

Network Security

  • Run CodeCodePrism in isolated environments when analyzing untrusted code
  • Use appropriate firewall rules for MCP server deployments
  • Monitor resource usage to detect potential DoS attacks

Access Control

  • Limit repository access to necessary directories only
  • Use least-privilege principles for service accounts
  • Regular security audits of deployment configurations

Data Protection

  • Ensure sensitive repositories are not exposed through MCP
  • Regular backup of analysis data if stored persistently
  • Encrypt sensitive configuration and communication channels

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ’» For Developers Integrating CodeCodePrism

Input Validation

  • Validate repository paths and file inputs
  • Sanitize data passed to CodeCodePrism APIs
  • Implement appropriate error handling

Resource Management

  • Set reasonable timeouts for analysis operations
  • Monitor memory and CPU usage
  • Implement graceful degradation for large repositories

πŸ“Š Security Metrics & Transparency
