We follow semantic versioning with strict security support windows:

This project implements multiple layers of security controls:

• Content Security Policy (CSP) 3.0 - Mitigates XSS and data injection
• HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) - Prevents protocol downgrade attacks
• X-Frame-Options: DENY - Eliminates clickjacking vectors
• X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff - Prevents MIME type confusion
• Referrer-Policy: strict-origin - Controls information leakage
• Permissions-Policy - Restricts API access (camera, mic, geolocation)

• Zero source maps in production
• Cryptographic filename hashing (SHA-256)
• Aggressive code minification
• Console statement removal
• React property stripping
• Comment elimination

• Automated vulnerability scanning via GitHub Actions
• Snyk integration for real-time monitoring
• Dependabot alerts enabled
• Regular dependency updates

Do not disclose security vulnerabilities publicly through GitHub issues, discussions, or pull requests. This could put our users at risk.

1. Email: Send details to kaloudasdev@gmail.com

   • Use PGP encryption when possible
   • Include "SECURITY" in subject line
   • Provide clear steps to reproduce

2. PGP Key:

-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
[Your PGP key here - generate via GPG tools]
-----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

3. Response SLA:
   • 24 hours: Initial acknowledgment
   • 72 hours: Severity assessment
   • 7 days: Fix development timeline
   • 14 days: Public disclosure (after fix)

We use CVSS 4.0 (Common Vulnerability Scoring System):

# Check current version
npm list next-hardened

# Update to latest secure version
npm update next-hardened

# Verify no vulnerabilities
npm audit --production

1. Receive report via security@
2. Validate vulnerability in isolated environment
3. Develop fix in private branch
4. Test thoroughly including regression testing
5. Release patch with detailed security advisory
6. Disclose publicly after 14 days

• Always use the latest stable version
• Enable all security headers in production
• Run regular npm audit checks
• Implement rate limiting at proxy level
• Use environment variables for secrets
• Enable 2FA on GitHub and npm accounts

• Never commit .env files to repository
• Don't disable security headers for "convenience"
• Avoid using deprecated dependencies
• Never run production with development configs
• Don't ignore security advisories

• Content-Security-Policy headers enabled
• HSTS preload configured
• No source maps deployed
• All console logs removed
• Environment variables properly set
• Rate limiting implemented
• WAF configured (if applicable)
• Regular backups configured
• Monitoring/alerting set up
• Incident response plan ready

• GitHub CodeQL: Continuous static analysis
• Snyk: Dependency vulnerability scanning
• Dependabot: Automated security updates
• OWASP Dependency Check: Comprehensive scanning

This project aligns with:

1. Immediate (0-2 hours)

   • Acknowledge reporter
   • Assess severity
   • Notify core team

2. Emergency (2-24 hours)

   • Develop hotfix
   • Test in isolated environment
   • Prepare security advisory

3. Release (24-48 hours)

   • Deploy patched version
   • Notify users
   • Update security advisories

• 48 hours: Patch development
• 72 hours: Release and notification

• 7-14 days: Regular release cycle
