DailyCodeDeploy takes security seriously. This document describes current security measures, improvement plans, and recommendations for users.
- Secure token handling: Using GitHub OAuth 2.0
- Scope limitation: Requesting minimal necessary permissions
- Token storage: Temporary storage in memory (production requires improvement)
- Session management: Basic session system
- Repository access: Access rights verification through GitHub API
- User validation: User validation with every request
- Rate limiting: Basic abuse protection (requires expansion)
// Example of current isolation approach
const { spawn } = require('child_process');
function runCommand(command, timeout = 30000) {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
const process = spawn('sh', ['-c', command], {
timeout,
killSignal: 'SIGTERM',
env: {}, // Limited environment
cwd: '/tmp/sandbox' // Isolated directory
});
// ... error handling and monitoring
});
}- Timeout controls: Maximum command execution time
- Process isolation: Separate processes for each task
- Resource limits: CPU and memory limitations (partially implemented)
- File system access: Limited file system access
- Input validation: Basic input data validation
- CORS configuration: Cross-origin request settings
- Content-Type validation: Content type verification
- SQL injection prevention: NoSQL approach reduces risks
- HTTPS enforcement: Mandatory HTTPS use in production
- Data in transit: Encryption of all API calls
- Sensitive data: Basic sensitive data handling
Current State:
// backend/data/users.json - NOT SECURE
{
"users": [
{
"github_token": "ghp_xxxxx", // Plaintext storage
"username": "user"
}
]
}Issues:
- Tokens stored in plaintext
- No encryption at rest
- File system accessible to administrator
Planned Solution:
// Planned encrypted storage
const crypto = require('crypto');
class SecretManager {
constructor(masterKey) {
this.masterKey = masterKey;
}
encrypt(data) {
const cipher = crypto.createCipher('aes-256-gcm', this.masterKey);
// ... implementation
}
decrypt(encryptedData) {
// ... secure decryption
}
}Current State:
// Potentially vulnerable to injection
const command = `echo "${userInput}"`;
spawn('sh', ['-c', command]);Planned Solution:
// Secure validation and escaping
function sanitizeCommand(input) {
// Whitelist allowed commands
const allowedCommands = ['npm', 'git', 'docker', 'echo'];
// Validate and escape
return validator.escape(input);
}Issues:
- Insufficient audit trails
- No suspicious activity monitoring
- Limited forensic capability
- Only GitHub OAuth
- No additional authentication factors
- Risks when GitHub account compromised
- Basic rate limiting
- No advanced throttling
- No geographic filtering

}- Schema-based validation
- Type checking
- Size limits
- Character set restrictions
- Container-based isolation
- Resource quotas
- Network restrictions
- File system mounting controls
class SecurityMonitor {
detectAnomalies(userActivity) {
// Machine learning based detection
}
alertOnSuspiciousActivity(event) {
// Real-time alerting
}
generateSecurityReport() {
// Compliance reporting
}
}- Two-factor authentication (2FA)
- Hardware security keys support
- Session management improvements
- Suspicious login detection
- SOC 2 Type II preparation
- GDPR compliance tools
- HIPAA compatibility options
- Industry-specific security controls
- Detailed audit trails
- Real-time monitoring dashboard
- Automated compliance reporting
- Security incident response tools
# Use tokens with minimal rights
# Only necessary scopes:
# - repo (for private repositories)
# - public_repo (for public ones)
# Regularly rotate tokens
# Never commit tokens to code- Regularly update dependencies
- Use security scanning tools
- Validate all user inputs
- Follow OWASP Top 10 guidelines
