Reporting a Vulnerability

We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability in SuperMini, please follow these steps:

1. Do Not Create a Public Issue

Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues, discussions, or pull requests.

2. Report Privately

Send your vulnerability report to:

3. Include Details

Please include as much information as possible:

  • Description: Clear description of the vulnerability
  • Impact: Potential impact and attack scenarios
  • Steps to Reproduce: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue
  • Proof of Concept: If possible, include a minimal proof of concept
  • Environment: Version, OS, Python version, dependencies
  • Suggested Fix: If you have ideas for fixing the issue

4. Response Timeline

  • Acknowledgment: We will acknowledge receipt within 48 hours
  • Initial Assessment: We will provide an initial assessment within 7 days
  • Regular Updates: We will provide regular updates on our progress
  • Resolution: We aim to resolve critical vulnerabilities within 30 days

Security Best Practices

For Users

  1. Keep Updated: Always use the latest version of SuperMini
  2. Secure API Keys:
    • Never commit API keys to version control
    • Use environment variables or secure config files
    • Regularly rotate your API keys
  3. Network Security:
    • Use HTTPS for all API communications
    • Be cautious when processing untrusted files
  4. File Permissions:
    • Ensure proper file permissions for generated outputs
    • Be careful with script execution permissions

For Developers

  1. Input Validation:
    • Validate all user inputs
    • Sanitize file paths and names
    • Check file types and sizes
  2. API Security:
    • Use secure authentication methods
    • Implement rate limiting
    • Validate API responses
  3. Dependencies:
    • Keep dependencies updated
    • Monitor for security advisories
    • Use security scanning tools
  4. Code Review:
    • Review all code changes for security implications
    • Use static analysis tools
    • Test security-related functionality

Security Features

SuperMini includes several security features:

1. Local-First Processing

  • Most processing can be done locally with Ollama
  • Optional cloud API usage only when configured

2. Secure File Handling

  • Proper file path validation
  • Safe temporary file creation
  • Automatic cleanup of temporary files

3. API Key Protection

  • Environment variable support
  • Secure configuration storage
  • No hardcoded credentials

4. Autonomous Safety

  • Safe operation validation
  • Restricted command execution
  • User confirmation for high-risk actions

Known Security Considerations

1. AI Model Outputs

  • AI-generated code should be reviewed before execution
  • Be cautious with automatically generated scripts
  • Validate AI suggestions for security implications

2. File Processing

  • Processing untrusted files may pose risks
  • Large files can cause resource exhaustion
  • Some file types may contain embedded code

3. Network Communications

  • API communications are encrypted (HTTPS)
  • Local Ollama connections use localhost
  • No telemetry data is collected by default

Vulnerability Disclosure Policy

When we receive a security vulnerability report:

  1. Confirmation: We will confirm the vulnerability and its impact
  2. Development: We will develop a fix and test it thoroughly
  3. Coordination: We will coordinate the release with the reporter
  4. Disclosure: We will publicly disclose the vulnerability after the fix is released
  5. Credit: We will provide appropriate credit to the reporter (unless they prefer to remain anonymous)

Security Updates

Security updates will be:

  • Released as patch versions (e.g., 2.0.1 → 2.0.2)
  • Clearly marked in the changelog
  • Announced through GitHub releases
  • Documented with severity and impact assessment

Bug Bounty

Currently, we do not have a formal bug bounty program. However, we greatly appreciate security researchers who responsibly disclose vulnerabilities and will:

  • Provide public recognition (if desired)
  • Include contributors in our security acknowledgments
  • Consider featuring contributions in our project documentation

Security Acknowledgments

We thank the following security researchers for their contributions:

No security issues have been reported yet. Be the first to help make SuperMini more secure!

Questions

If you have questions about this security policy, please:

  • Create a public issue for general security questions
  • Use private reporting channels for potential vulnerabilities
  • Check our documentation for security best practices

Legal

By reporting security vulnerabilities, you agree to:

  • Give us reasonable time to fix the issue before public disclosure
  • Not exploit the vulnerability beyond what's necessary for verification
  • Not access or modify user data without explicit permission
  • Follow responsible disclosure practices

We commit to:

  • Respond to reports in a timely manner
  • Keep your information confidential
  • Provide credit for your discovery (if desired)
  • Not pursue legal action for good-faith security research
