We recommend always using the latest version for the best security posture.

DO NOT create public GitHub issues for security vulnerabilities.

Instead, please report security vulnerabilities through one of these private channels:

Email: ratnakirtiscr@gmail.com

Subject Line Format: [SECURITY] The Joker - Brief Description

Discord: discord.gg/VRPSujmH

Contact the maintainer directly via DM for sensitive security issues.

When reporting a vulnerability, please include:

1. Type of vulnerability (e.g., XSS, RCE, Path Traversal)
2. Location of the affected source code (file path, line number)
3. Step-by-step instructions to reproduce
4. Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
5. Impact assessment and potential attack scenarios
6. Any suggested fixes or mitigations

We believe in recognizing security researchers for their valuable contributions:

• Your name in our security acknowledgments (if desired)
• Credit in the release notes when the fix is deployed
• Public thanks on our social media channels

1. Keep Updated

   git pull origin main
   npm install
   npm run build

2. Environment Variables

   • Never commit .env files
   • Use strong, unique API keys
   • Rotate credentials regularly

3. API Key Security

   # Never expose in logs
   LLM_API_KEY=your-key-here  # Keep secret!

4. Network Security

   • Use HTTPS endpoints when possible
   • Restrict LLM server access to localhost when feasible
   • Use firewalls to limit network exposure

1. Code Review

   • All PRs require security review
   • No hardcoded credentials
   • Validate all user inputs
   • Sanitize outputs

2. Dependencies

   # Check for vulnerabilities regularly
   npm audit
   npm audit fix

3. Sensitive Data

   • Never log sensitive information
   • Clear sensitive data from memory when done
   • Use secure deletion for temporary files

The Joker uses Puppeteer for web automation. Be aware of:
