We release patches for security vulnerabilities in the following versions:

Note: We recommend always using the latest stable version to ensure you have all security updates and patches.

We take the security of RoomRTC seriously. If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please report it to us as described below.

Please do NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

Instead, please report security vulnerabilities by:

1. Email: Send an email to sebita29@gmail.com
2. Subject Line: Include "RoomRTC Security Vulnerability" in the subject
3. Details to Include:
   • Type of vulnerability
   • Full paths of source file(s) related to the vulnerability
   • Location of the affected source code (tag/branch/commit or direct URL)
   • Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
   • Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
   • Impact of the vulnerability, including how an attacker might exploit it

• Acknowledgment: You should receive an acknowledgment within 48 hours
• Investigation: We will investigate and validate the reported vulnerability
• Updates: We will keep you informed about the progress of the fix
• Resolution: Once the vulnerability is fixed, we will notify you and publicly acknowledge your responsible disclosure (unless you prefer to remain anonymous)
• Timeline: We aim to resolve critical vulnerabilities within 30 days

• Please give us reasonable time to address the vulnerability before any public disclosure
• We will credit you for the discovery in our security advisories (unless you prefer anonymity)
• We follow coordinated disclosure practices

1. Keep Updated: Always use the latest stable version of RoomRTC
2. Secure Configuration:
   • Use strong, unique passwords for any authentication
   • Enable HTTPS/WSS for all WebRTC connections
   • Configure proper CORS policies
3. Network Security:
   • Use TURN servers with authentication
   • Implement proper firewall rules
   • Validate and sanitize all user inputs
4. Monitoring:
   • Monitor your application logs for suspicious activity
   • Set up alerts for unusual connection patterns

1. Secure Coding Practices:

   • Validate and sanitize all inputs, especially signaling data
   • Use parameterized queries to prevent injection attacks
   • Implement proper authentication and authorization
   • Follow the principle of least privilege

2. WebRTC Security:

   • Always use HTTPS for serving WebRTC applications
   • Use WSS (WebSocket Secure) for signaling
   • Implement proper STUN/TURN server authentication
   • Validate peer connections before establishing media streams

3. Dependencies:

   • Regularly update all dependencies
   • Use tools like npm audit or yarn audit to check for known vulnerabilities
   • Review dependency licenses and security advisories

4. Data Protection:

   • Implement end-to-end encryption for sensitive data
   • Don't store sensitive information in logs
   • Follow GDPR and other relevant data protection regulations
   • Use secure token generation for session management

5. Code Review:

   • Conduct security-focused code reviews
   • Use static analysis tools to identify potential vulnerabilities
   • Implement automated security testing in CI/CD pipelines

Before deploying RoomRTC in production:

• All communications use HTTPS/WSS
• Authentication is properly implemented
• Input validation is in place for all user inputs
• CORS policies are correctly configured
• Rate limiting is implemented to prevent DoS attacks
• Error messages don't expose sensitive information
• Security headers are properly configured
• Dependencies are up to date
• Logging doesn't include sensitive data
• Security testing has been performed

1. IP Address Exposure: WebRTC can expose users' real IP addresses even when using a VPN. Consider:

   • Implementing IP masking via TURN servers
   • Warning users about potential IP exposure
   • Providing configuration options for privacy-conscious users

2. Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Ensure all user-generated content is properly sanitized

3. Man-in-the-Middle Attacks: Always use encrypted connections and verify peer identities

Security updates and patches will be announced through:

• GitHub Security Advisories
• Release notes
• Project README
