We actively support the following versions with security updates:

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

Security vulnerabilities should not be reported through public GitHub issues.

Send an email to: [security@yourorganization.com] with:

• Description of the vulnerability
• Steps to reproduce
• Potential impact
• Suggested fix (if any)

• Initial response: Within 24 hours
• Status update: Within 72 hours
• Fix timeline: Depends on severity
  • Critical: 1-7 days
  • High: 7-14 days
  • Medium: 14-30 days
  • Low: 30-90 days

• All user inputs are validated and sanitized
• Grok patterns are restricted to a whitelist of safe elements
• Log line length limits prevent DoS attacks
• S3 paths are validated for proper format

• Parameterized S3 bucket names prevent bucket sniping
• IAM roles used instead of hardcoded credentials
• TLS encryption for all network communication
• Network segmentation and access controls

• Regular dependency updates
• Automated vulnerability scanning
• Minimal dependency footprint
• Security patches applied promptly

• Comprehensive error handling
• Secure logging practices
• Resource limits and monitoring
• Input sanitization at all entry points

# Always use environment variables for sensitive configuration
export ORGANIZATION_PREFIX="your-org"
export ENVIRONMENT="prod"

# Never hardcode credentials
export AWS_REGION="us-east-1"
# Use IAM roles instead of access keys

{
  "source.s3path": "s3://${ORGANIZATION_PREFIX}-flink-logs-${ENVIRONMENT}/",
  "iceberg.warehouse": "s3://${ORGANIZATION_PREFIX}-iceberg-warehouse-${ENVIRONMENT}"
}

• Use VPC endpoints for S3 access
• Implement proper security groups
• Enable CloudTrail logging
• Use encryption at rest and in transit

• Enable AWS CloudWatch monitoring
• Set up alerts for unusual activity
• Monitor resource usage
• Log security events

• Risk: Malicious Grok patterns could potentially execute code
• Mitigation: Whitelist of allowed pattern elements, input validation
• Status: Mitigated in v0.1+

• Risk: Predictable bucket names could be claimed by attackers
• Mitigation: Parameterized bucket names with organization prefix
• Status: Mitigated in v0.1+

• Risk: Malicious log entries could inject harmful content
• Mitigation: Input validation, length limits, sanitization
• Status: Mitigated in v0.1+

Security updates will be released as patch versions and announced through:

• GitHub Security Advisories
• Release notes
• Email notifications (if subscribed)

This project follows security best practices for:

• OWASP Top 10
• AWS Security Best Practices
• Apache Flink Security Guidelines
• Container Security Standards
