We actively maintain and provide security updates for the following versions:

⚠️ IMPORTANT: This software is currently in development and has known security limitations. It is NOT recommended for production use without additional security measures.

• Risk Level: High
• Description: The import_graph_data and export_subgraph tools construct Gremlin queries from user input with basic sanitization only
• Impact: Malicious queries could potentially:
  • Access unauthorized data
  • Modify or delete graph data
  • Cause denial of service
• Mitigation: Use only in trusted environments with validated input

• Risk Level: Medium
• Description: No connection pooling, rate limiting, or query timeouts
• Impact: Server could be overwhelmed by:
  • Rapid successive requests
  • Long-running queries
  • Connection exhaustion
• Mitigation: Deploy behind a proxy with rate limiting

• Risk Level: Low-Medium
• Description: Detailed error messages may expose internal system information
• Impact: Error responses could reveal:
  • Database schema details
  • Internal server structure
  • Configuration information
• Mitigation: Configure appropriate log levels in production

If you discover a security vulnerability, please follow these steps:

1. DO NOT open a public GitHub issue
2. DO NOT disclose the vulnerability publicly until it has been addressed

Instead, please report security issues by:

Email: security@your-domain.com (replace with actual email)

GitHub: Create a private security advisory via GitHub's Security tab

Please provide as much information as possible:

• Description: Clear description of the vulnerability
• Steps to Reproduce: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue
• Impact Assessment: Your assessment of the potential impact
• Proof of Concept: Code or screenshots demonstrating the issue (if applicable)
• Suggested Fix: Any suggestions for fixing the vulnerability (optional)

We aim to respond to security reports according to the following timeline:

• Initial Response: Within 48 hours
• Vulnerability Assessment: Within 1 week
• Fix Development: Within 2-4 weeks (depending on complexity)
• Release and Disclosure: Within 6 weeks of initial report

1. Receipt Confirmation: We'll confirm receipt of your report within 48 hours
2. Initial Assessment: We'll provide an initial assessment within 1 week
3. Investigation: Our team will investigate and validate the issue
4. Fix Development: We'll develop and test a fix
5. Coordinated Disclosure: We'll coordinate with you on timing for public disclosure
6. Release: We'll release the fix and publish a security advisory

When using this software:

• Environment: Use only in trusted, controlled environments
• Network Security: Deploy behind firewalls with restricted access
• Authentication: Use strong credentials for Gremlin server connections
• Monitoring: Monitor query patterns and resource usage
• Updates: Keep dependencies and the software updated
• Input Validation: Validate all user inputs before processing

When contributing code:

• Input Validation: Always validate and sanitize user inputs
• Error Handling: Avoid exposing sensitive information in error messages
• Dependencies: Keep dependencies updated and scan for vulnerabilities
• Code Review: All security-related changes require thorough review
• Testing: Include security test cases for new features

We are actively working on improving security with these planned enhancements:

• Enhanced query sanitization and validation
• Improved error handling to prevent information disclosure
• Basic rate limiting implementation

• Connection pooling with proper timeout handling
• Query allowlisting for production environments
• Comprehensive audit logging
• Security-focused configuration options

• Advanced query analysis and blocking
• Integration with security scanning tools
• Multi-factor authentication support
• End-to-end encryption for sensitive operations

Our CI/CD pipeline includes:

• Dependency Scanning: npm audit and audit-ci for known vulnerabilities
• Static Analysis: ESLint with security-focused rules
• Type Safety: TypeScript strict mode for memory safety

We perform regular manual security assessments including:

• Query injection testing
• Input validation testing
• Error handling verification
• Access control validation

We use the following tools for security monitoring:

• npm audit - Dependency vulnerability scanning
• audit-ci - CI/CD security gate
• GitHub Security Advisories - Vulnerability tracking
• Dependabot - Automated dependency updates

We appreciate security researchers and users who help improve the security of this project. Contributors who report valid security issues will be:

• Credited in the security advisory (unless they prefer to remain anonymous)
• Listed in our security acknowledgments
• Invited to collaborate on security improvements

For general security questions or concerns:

• Create a GitHub Discussion in the Security category
• Email: security@your-domain.com (replace with actual email)

For urgent security matters:

• Follow the vulnerability reporting process above
• Contact maintainers directly via GitHub

Note: This security policy is regularly reviewed and updated. Please check back periodically for the latest information.
