# Security Policy
## Supported Versions
This is a personal homelab configuration repository. The latest commit on `main` is always the supported version.
| Branch | Supported |
| ------ | ------------------ |
| main | :white_check_mark: |
| other | :x: |
## Security Considerations
### Secrets Management
**DO NOT commit secrets to this repository!**
- All passwords in `.env` files should use placeholder values (e.g., `changeme_*`)
- Real passwords should only be set in your local deployment
- Use environment variables or Docker secrets for sensitive data
- Never commit files containing real credentials
### Container Security
- All container images are scanned for vulnerabilities via GitHub Actions
- HIGH and CRITICAL vulnerabilities are reported in security scans
- Keep images up to date by pulling latest versions regularly
- Review security scan results before deploying
### Network Security
- All services are behind Traefik reverse proxy
- SSL/TLS is enforced via Let's Encrypt
- Internal services use isolated Docker networks
- SSO is enabled on most services via Tinyauth
### Authentication
- LLDAP provides centralized user management
- Tinyauth handles SSO authentication
- Services with built-in authentication are documented in README
- Change all default passwords before deployment
## Reporting a Vulnerability
If you discover a security vulnerability in this configuration:
1. **DO NOT** open a public issue
2. Contact the repository owner directly via GitHub private message
3. Include:
- Description of the vulnerability
- Steps to reproduce
- Potential impact
- Suggested fix (if any)
### What to Report
- Exposed secrets or credentials
- Insecure configurations
- Vulnerable container images (not already detected by CI)
- Authentication bypasses
- Network security issues
### What NOT to Report
- Issues with third-party services (report to their maintainers)
- Theoretical vulnerabilities without proof of concept
- Social engineering attempts
## Security Best Practices
### Before Deployment
1. **Change all passwords** in `.env` files
2. **Review** all service configurations
3. **Update** container images to latest versions
4. **Configure** firewall to only allow ports 80/443
5. **Enable** automatic security updates on host OS
### After Deployment
1. **Monitor** logs regularly for suspicious activity
2. **Update** services monthly (at minimum)
3. **Backup** data regularly
4. **Review** access logs
5. **Test** disaster recovery procedures
### Network Hardening
- Use a firewall (ufw, iptables, etc.)
- Only expose ports 80 and 443 to the internet
- Consider using a VPN for administrative access
- Enable fail2ban or similar intrusion prevention
- Use strong DNS providers with DNSSEC
### Container Hardening
- Run containers as non-root when possible
- Use read-only filesystems where applicable
- Limit container resources (CPU, memory)
- Enable security options (no-new-privileges, etc.)
- Regularly scan for vulnerabilities
## Automated Security Scanning
This repository includes automated security scanning:
- **Gitleaks**: Detects secrets in commits
- **Trivy**: Scans container images for vulnerabilities
- **YAML Linting**: Ensures proper configuration
- **Dependency Review**: Checks for vulnerable dependencies
Review GitHub Actions results before merging PRs.
## Compliance
This is a personal homelab configuration and does not claim compliance with any specific security standards. However, it follows general security best practices:
- Principle of least privilege
- Defense in depth
- Secure by default
- Regular updates and patching
## External Dependencies
Security of this setup depends on:
- Docker and Docker Compose security
- Container image maintainers
- Traefik security
- LLDAP security
- Host OS security
Always keep these dependencies up to date.
