Reporting Security Vulnerabilities

We take security seriously and appreciate responsible disclosure of security vulnerabilities.

How to Report

DO NOT create public GitHub issues for security vulnerabilities.

Instead, please report security vulnerabilities via:

  • Email: [email protected]
  • PGP Key: Available on our website for encrypted communication
  • Response Time: We aim to respond within 48 hours

What to Include

When reporting security vulnerabilities, please include:

  • Description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce the issue
  • Potential impact assessment
  • Any suggested mitigation strategies
  • Your contact information for follow-up

Security Response Process

  1. Acknowledgment: We acknowledge receipt within 48 hours
  2. Assessment: We assess and validate the reported vulnerability
  3. Fix Development: We develop and test a security fix
  4. Coordinated Disclosure: We coordinate release timing with the reporter
  5. Public Disclosure: We release the fix and publish security advisory
  6. Recognition: We recognize the reporter (if desired)

Security Architecture

Defense in Depth

SASEWaddle implements multiple security layers:

  1. Network Layer: WireGuard encryption and authentication
  2. Application Layer: JWT tokens and API authentication
  3. Transport Layer: TLS for all API communications
  4. Data Layer: Encrypted storage for sensitive data

Zero Trust Principles

  • Never trust, always verify
  • Verify identity and device before access
  • Grant least privilege access
  • Monitor and log all activities

Certificate Management

  • Automated certificate provisioning
  • Certificate lifecycle management
  • Certificate revocation support
  • Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) integration

Incident Response

In case of security incidents:

  1. Detection: Monitor for security events
  2. Analysis: Assess the scope and impact
  3. Containment: Limit the spread of the incident
  4. Eradication: Remove the threat from systems
  5. Recovery: Restore normal operations
  6. Lessons Learned: Document and improve processes

Third-Party Security

Dependencies

We regularly audit and update third-party dependencies:

  • Automated vulnerability scanning
  • Regular dependency updates
  • Security advisory monitoring
  • License compliance verification

Integrations

Security considerations for third-party integrations:

  • Identity Provider (IdP) integrations
