| ## Reporting a Vulnerability | |
| We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability in this n8n infrastructure, please report it responsibly. | |
| ### How to Report | |
| 1. **Do NOT** open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities | |
| 2. Send an email to: security@your-domain.com (replace with your actual security contact) | |
| 3. Include the following information: | |
| - Description of the vulnerability | |
| - Steps to reproduce the issue | |
| - Potential impact assessment | |
| - Suggested fix (if available) | |
| ### What to Expect | |
| - **Acknowledgment**: Within 48 hours of your report | |
| - **Initial Assessment**: Within 7 days | |
| - **Fix Timeline**: Critical issues within 14 days, others within 30 days | |
| - **Disclosure**: Coordinated disclosure after fix is released | |
| ## Security Best Practices | |
| ### For Administrators | |
| 1. **Environment Variables**: | |
| - Never commit `.env` files to version control | |
| - Use GitHub Secrets for all sensitive data | |
| - Rotate encryption keys regularly (quarterly recommended) | |
| 2. **Database Security**: | |
| - Always use SSL connections to Supabase | |
| - Enable Row Level Security (RLS) policies | |
| - Regular backup encryption validation | |
| - Monitor for unusual database activity | |
| 3. **Container Security**: | |
| - Keep n8n version pinned and updated | |
| - Regular security scanning of Docker images | |
| - Use non-root user inside containers | |
| - Limit container network access | |
| 4. **Access Control**: | |
| - Enable n8n user management | |
| - Use strong JWT secrets | |
| - Implement webhook authentication | |
| - Regular access review and cleanup | |
| ### For Developers | |
| 1. **Code Security**: | |
| - No hardcoded credentials in source code | |
| - Validate all webhook inputs | |
| - Sanitize user inputs in workflows | |
| - Use prepared statements for database queries | |
| 2. **Workflow Security**: | |
| - Audit workflow permissions regularly | |
| - Secure credential storage in n8n | |
| - Validate external API responses | |
| - Implement proper error handling | |
| 3. **AI Integration Security**: | |
| - Validate AI model outputs | |
| - Sanitize prompts and inputs | |
| - Secure API key management | |
| - Monitor AI usage and costs | |

| ## Known Security Considerations | |
| 1. **Hugging Face Spaces**: Public spaces expose the application URL. Use authentication and access controls. | |
| 2. **Vector Embeddings**: Knowledge base content may contain sensitive information. Review before indexing. | |
| 3. **Webhook Endpoints**: Publicly accessible URLs should implement proper authentication. | |
| 4. **Database Access**: Ensure Supabase RLS policies are properly configured for your use case. | |
| ## Incident Response | |
| In case of a security incident: | |
| 1. **Immediate Actions**: | |
| - Disable affected services if necessary | |
| - Preserve logs and evidence | |
| - Assess scope and impact | |
| 2. **Communication**: | |
| - Notify security team immediately | |
| - Prepare user communication if needed | |
| - Coordinate with stakeholders | |
| 3. **Recovery**: | |
| - Apply security patches | |
| - Restore from clean backups if needed | |
| - Verify system integrity | |
| - Update security measures | |
