# Security Policy

## Project status

Assemblash is **released at 1.13.0**.
By default, the local-first engine binds `127.0.0.1`.
It needs no account, no network, and no cloud service.

## Supported versions

| Version | Supported |
| ------- | --------- |
| 1.13.x | Yes |
| 1.12.x | Yes |
| 1.2.x | Yes |
| 1.1.x | Yes |
| 1.0.x | Yes |
| < 1.0 | No — upgrade to the latest release |

## What the built-in authentication is, and is not

If the server binds anything other than loopback, it **refuses to start
without an access token**. The token comparison runs in constant time. The
token is never logged and is never put in a URL. That is all it does: there are
no users, no roles, and no revocation. Rotation of the single token logs
everyone out.

**The token authenticates; it does not encrypt.** Put anything reachable beyond
a trusted network behind a reverse proxy that terminates TLS. Put OIDC or SSO
there too — see [DEPLOYMENT.md](DEPLOYMENT.md). Assemblash is not an identity
provider and does not try to be one.

## Reporting a vulnerability

**Do not open a public issue for a security problem.**

Report privately through GitHub's private vulnerability reporting:
**Security → Report a vulnerability** on this repository.

<!-- TODO(release): if you prefer email reports, add a contact address here and
     enable "Private vulnerability reporting" in the repository settings. -->

Please include:

- what the issue is and what an attacker can achieve;
- affected component (core, API, MCP server, reference UI, adapter);
- steps to reproduce, or a minimal document/request that triggers it;
- your environment (OS, runtime version, configuration);
- any suggested fix.

Expect an acknowledgement within a few days. This is a small project, so allow
reasonable time for a fix before public disclosure. Coordinate the disclosure
timing with the maintainers.

## Scope — what matters most in this project

Assemblash exposes a document engine to AI agents. The sharpest risks are in
the agent boundary, not in classic web surfaces. The following are in scope and
are treated as security issues, not bugs:

- **Filesystem escape.** Any path in a document, asset import, export target,
  or MCP tool argument that reaches outside the configured project root
  (PRD §10.1) — including symlinks, absolute paths, UNC paths, and `..`
  traversal.
- **Protected-layer bypass.** Any way to mutate a `locked`, `protected`, or
  `readOnly` layer through normal API, MCP, or adapter operations (PRD §10.2).
- **Version-check bypass.** Applying a mutation against a stale document
  version without rejection (PRD §10.3).
- **Dry-run that mutates.** Any operation that commits changes while reported
  as a preview (PRD §10.4).
- **Data exfiltration through adapters.** An optional AI or downstream adapter
  sending local project data to a remote provider without explicit
  configuration (PRD FR-15).
- **Malicious document or asset handling.** Crafted SVG, image, font, or
  `document.json` input causing code execution, script execution in a renderer
  or the reference UI, server-side request forgery, or resource exhaustion.
- **Secret leakage in errors, logs, exports, or export metadata**
  (PRD NFR-4).
- **Undo corruption.** History or transaction handling that leaves a document
  unrecoverable after a rejected or reversed operation.

## Out of scope

- Vulnerabilities caused only by exposing plain HTTP to an untrusted network
  against the deployment guidance. Assemblash provides a shared access token,
  not transport encryption or per-user identity; internet-facing deployments
  need TLS and, where required, an identity-aware reverse proxy.
- Missing hardening in features documented as not yet implemented.
- Reports generated only by an automated scanner with no demonstrated impact.
- Attacks that need an already-compromised host or a malicious local user with
  filesystem access equal to the server's.

## Deployment guidance for users

- Run Assemblash locally or on a trusted host. Do not expose it directly to the
  internet without its access token and TLS in front of it. Add an
  identity-aware proxy when you need users, roles, OIDC, or SSO.
- Configure the project root explicitly. Give the process access to nothing
  beyond it.
- Treat documents and assets from other people as untrusted input.
- Keep provider credentials used by downstream adapters out of the repository
  and out of documents. No AI provider adapter ships in the core.
