Security Policy

Supported Versions

The World Component project maintains security updates for the following versions:

Version Supported
0.1.x
0.0.x
< 0.0.0

Reporting a Vulnerability

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

1. Do Not Create a Public Issue

Security vulnerabilities should not be reported through public GitHub issues, as this could expose users to potential attacks.

2. Contact the Maintainer

Email the project maintainer directly at: [maintainer-email@example.com]

3. Provide Detailed Information

Include the following information in your report:

  • Description: Clear description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to Reproduce: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue
  • Impact: Potential impact of the vulnerability
  • Suggested Fix: If you have suggestions for fixing the issue
  • Environment: Browser, OS, and version information

4. Response Timeline

  • Initial Response: Within 48 hours
  • Assessment: Within 7 days
  • Fix Development: Timeline depends on complexity
  • Public Disclosure: After fix is available

Security Considerations

Three.js Security

  • WebGL Context: Ensure proper WebGL context isolation
  • Shader Validation: Validate all custom shaders
  • Texture Loading: Only load textures from trusted sources
  • Model Loading: Validate GLTF/GLB files before loading

Vue.js Security

  • XSS Prevention: Use Vue's built-in XSS protection
  • Template Injection: Avoid dynamic template compilation
  • Props Validation: Validate all component props
  • Event Handling: Sanitize user input in event handlers

API Security

  • Authentication: Use proper authentication for API calls
  • HTTPS: Always use HTTPS for API communication
  • Input Validation: Validate all API inputs
  • Rate Limiting: Implement rate limiting for API endpoints

General Security

  • Dependency Updates: Keep all dependencies updated
  • Code Review: All code changes undergo security review
  • Environment Variables: Never commit secrets to version control
  • Error Handling: Avoid exposing sensitive information in error messages
