Reporting a Vulnerability​

The Juniro team takes security vulnerabilities seriously. We appreciate your efforts to responsibly disclose your findings.

How to Report​

Please DO NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

Instead, please report them via email to security@juniro.com with the following information:

Required Information​

  • Summary: Brief description of the vulnerability
  • Impact: Potential impact and attack scenarios
  • Reproduction Steps: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue
  • Proof of Concept: Code, screenshots, or logs demonstrating the vulnerability
  • Suggested Fix: If you have ideas for remediation (optional)

Optional Information​

  • CVSS Score: If you've calculated a CVSS score
  • Affected Components: Specific files, functions, or endpoints affected
  • Workarounds: Any temporary mitigation strategies

What to Expect​

  1. Acknowledgment: We'll acknowledge receipt within 24 hours
  2. Initial Assessment: We'll provide an initial assessment within 72 hours
  3. Regular Updates: We'll keep you informed of our progress
  4. Resolution Timeline: We aim to resolve critical issues within 7 days
  5. Public Disclosure: We'll coordinate with you on responsible disclosure timing

Security Best Practices​

For Contributors​

When contributing to this project, please follow these security guidelines:

Code Security​

  • Input Validation: Always validate and sanitize user inputs
  • Output Encoding: Properly encode outputs to prevent XSS
  • Authentication: Use secure authentication mechanisms
  • Authorization: Implement proper access controls
  • Cryptography: Use well-established cryptographic libraries
  • Dependencies: Keep dependencies updated and scan for vulnerabilities

Data Protection​

  • Sensitive Data: Never commit secrets, passwords, or API keys
  • Personal Information: Handle PII according to privacy regulations
  • Data Encryption: Encrypt sensitive data at rest and in transit
  • Logging: Avoid logging sensitive information
  • Database Security: Use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection

Infrastructure Security​

  • Environment Variables: Use environment variables for configuration
  • HTTPS: Always use HTTPS in production
  • Security Headers: Implement appropriate security headers
  • CORS: Configure CORS policies appropriately
  • Rate Limiting: Implement rate limiting for APIs

Security Checklist​

Before submitting code, ensure:

  • All user inputs are validated and sanitized
  • No sensitive data is logged or exposed
  • Authentication and authorization are properly implemented
  • Dependencies are up to date and free of known vulnerabilities
  • Error messages don't reveal sensitive information
  • Security headers are configured
  • HTTPS is enforced where applicable

Known Security Considerations​

Current Security Measures​

  • Authentication: JWT-based authentication with secure token handling
  • Authorization: Role-based access control (RBAC)
  • Data Encryption: AES-256 encryption for sensitive data at rest
  • Transport Security: TLS 1.3 for all data in transit
  • Input Validation: Comprehensive input validation and sanitization
  • Rate Limiting: API rate limiting to prevent abuse
  • Security Headers: OWASP recommended security headers
  • Dependency Scanning: Automated vulnerability scanning of dependencies

Potential Risk Areas​

  • Third-Party Integrations: External API dependencies
  • File Uploads: User-generated content handling
  • Payment Processing: Financial transaction security
  • User Data: Personal information handling and privacy
  • Admin Functions: Elevated privilege operations

Security Tools and Monitoring​

Automated Security Testing​

  • Static Analysis: ESLint security rules and CodeQL analysis
  • Dependency Scanning: npm audit and GitHub security advisories
  • Container Scanning: Docker image vulnerability scanning
  • Secret Scanning: Automated detection of committed secrets

Monitoring and Alerting​

  • Application Monitoring: Real-time application security monitoring
  • Anomaly Detection: Unusual access pattern detection
  • Log Analysis: Security event log analysis and alerting
  • Incident Response: Automated incident response procedures

Compliance and Standards​

Regulatory Compliance​

  • GDPR: General Data Protection Regulation compliance
  • CCPA: California Consumer Privacy Act compliance
  • COPPA: Children's Online Privacy Protection Act compliance
  • SOC 2: Service Organization Control 2 compliance framework

Security Standards​

  • OWASP Top 10: Mitigation of OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
  • CIS Controls: Implementation of CIS security controls
  • NIST Framework: Alignment with NIST Cybersecurity Framework
  • ISO 27001: Information security management best practices

Contact Information​

Security Team​

  • Email: security@juniro.com
  • Response Time: 24 hours for initial acknowledgment
  • Escalation: For urgent matters, include "URGENT" in subject line

Bug Bounty Program​

We currently do not have a formal bug bounty program, but we recognize and appreciate security researchers who help improve our security posture. Responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities may be acknowledged in:

  • Security advisory acknowledgments
  • Hall of fame recognition
  • Potential compensation for critical findings (case-by-case basis)

This security policy is provided for informational purposes only. Juniro reserves the right to modify this policy at any time. By reporting vulnerabilities, you agree to:

  • Act in good faith and avoid privacy violations, data destruction, or service interruption
  • Only interact with accounts you own or with explicit permission from the account holder
  • Not perform testing on our production systems without explicit written permission
  • Provide reasonable time for us to resolve issues before any public disclosure

Thank you for helping keep Juniro and our users safe!
