At SortVision, we take security seriously. We appreciate your efforts to responsibly disclose your findings and will make every effort to acknowledge your contributions.

1. DO NOT create public GitHub issues for security vulnerabilities
2. Go to the Security tab of the repository
3. Click on "Report a vulnerability" to start a private discussion
4. Include the following information in your report:
   • Description of the vulnerability
   • Steps to reproduce the issue
   • Proof of concept if possible
   • Impact of the issue
   • Suggested fix (if any)

For more information on reporting security vulnerabilities, see GitHub's documentation on privately reporting a security vulnerability.

We aim to respond to security reports with the following timeline:

• Initial Response: Within 48 hours
• Status Update: Within 5 business days
• Vulnerability Fix: Timeline will vary based on severity and complexity

• All code changes undergo security review during PR process
• Regular dependency updates via Dependabot
• Automated security scanning for known vulnerabilities
• Code signing for all releases

• No personal data is collected or stored
• All algorithm computations are performed client-side
• No external API calls with sensitive data
• Local storage usage is minimal and contains no sensitive information

• Content Security Policy (CSP) implementation
• HTTPS-only access
• Secure cookie configuration
• XSS protection headers
• CORS policy implementation

1. Code Review

   • Follow secure coding guidelines
   • Review for common vulnerabilities (XSS, CSRF, etc.)
   • Validate all user inputs
   • Use safe methods for data handling

2. Dependencies

   • Keep dependencies up to date
   • Review security advisories
   • Use only trusted packages
   • Regular audit of package.json

3. Testing

   • Include security tests
   • Perform penetration testing
   • Regular vulnerability scanning
   • Test edge cases thoroughly

1. Browser Security

   • Use modern, updated browsers
   • Enable security features
   • Be cautious with browser extensions
   • Report suspicious behavior

2. Data Safety

   • Don't input sensitive data
   • Clear browser cache if needed
   • Use private browsing when preferred
   • Be aware of data handling practices

• Input validation for array sizes
• Memory usage optimization
• Safe algorithm implementations
• Protected API endpoints (if any)
• Secure WebSocket connections (if implemented)
• Rate limiting on intensive operations

• Enhanced error handling
• Additional input sanitization
• Improved rate limiting
• Extended security headers
• Advanced CSP rules

• Frontend application code
• Sorting algorithms implementation
• UI/UX components
• Build and deployment processes
• Development dependencies

• Known issues marked as wontfix
• Theoretical vulnerabilities without proof of concept
• Issues requiring physical access
• Social engineering attacks
• DOS/DDOS attacks

We would like to thank all security researchers and contributors who help keep SortVision secure. Notable contributors will be listed here (with permission).
