We actively support the following versions with security updates:
| Version | Supported |
|---|---|
| 1.x.x | ✅ |
| 0.x.x | ❌ |
We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability in Error Collector MCP, please report it responsibly.
Please do NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.
Instead, please report them via one of the following methods:
- Email: Send details to security@error-collector-mcp.org
- GitHub Security Advisory: Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting feature
- Encrypted Communication: Use our PGP key for sensitive reports
When reporting a vulnerability, please include:
- Description of the vulnerability
- Steps to reproduce the issue
- Potential impact assessment
- Suggested fix (if available)
- Your contact information
- Initial Response: Within 24 hours
- Vulnerability Assessment: Within 72 hours
- Fix Development: Within 7-14 days (depending on severity)
- Public Disclosure: After fix is released and users have time to update
-
API Key Security:
- Never commit API keys to version control
- Use environment variables or secure secret management
- Rotate API keys regularly
- Use least-privilege API keys when possible
-
Network Security:
- Run the server behind a firewall
- Use HTTPS in production environments
- Limit network access to necessary ports only
- Consider using VPN for remote access
-
Data Protection:
- Regularly backup error data
- Implement data retention policies
- Consider data encryption at rest
- Monitor access logs
-
System Security:
- Keep dependencies updated
- Run with minimal required privileges
- Use container security best practices
- Monitor system resources
-
Code Security:
- Follow secure coding practices
- Validate all inputs
- Sanitize error messages before AI processing
- Use parameterized queries for data access
-
Dependency Management:
- Regularly audit dependencies for vulnerabilities
- Use dependency scanning tools
- Pin dependency versions in production
- Monitor security advisories
-
Testing:
- Include security tests in CI/CD
- Test with malformed inputs
- Validate error handling paths
- Test rate limiting and resource exhaustion
- Error messages may contain sensitive information
- Stack traces can reveal internal system details
- File paths may expose system structure
- Environment variables might contain secrets
Mitigation: The system includes built-in filtering to remove common sensitive patterns, but users should review their error patterns and configure additional filtering as needed.
- OpenRouter API keys provide access to AI services
- Exposed keys can lead to unauthorized usage and costs
- Keys in logs or error messages create security risks
Mitigation: Use environment variables, never log API keys, and implement proper secret management practices.
- MCP server listens on network ports
- Browser extensions communicate over HTTP/WebSocket
- Unprotected endpoints can be accessed by malicious actors
Mitigation: Use proper firewall configuration, consider HTTPS/WSS in production, and implement authentication if needed.
Security updates are released as patch versions and are clearly marked in the changelog. Users are strongly encouraged to:
- Subscribe to security notifications
- Update promptly when security patches are released
- Test updates in staging environments first
- Monitor security advisories
This project aims to comply with:
- OWASP Top 10 security practices
