If you discover a security vulnerability in RAVENBOT, please report it responsibly:

1. Do NOT open a public GitHub issue
2. Email security@ravenbot.local (or use the private vulnerability reporting feature)
3. Include:
   • Description of the vulnerability
   • Steps to reproduce
   • Potential impact
   • Suggested fix (if any)

We will respond within 48 hours and work with you to address the issue.

RAVENBOT uses automated tooling to ensure dependency security:

• cargo-audit: Checks for known vulnerabilities in dependencies
• cargo-deny: Enforces license compliance and dependency policies
• Dependabot: Automatically creates PRs for security updates

Every release includes a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) in CycloneDX format.

To generate an SBOM locally:

cargo install cargo-cyclonedx
cargo cyclonedx --format json --output-dir sbom

Release binaries are code-signed:

• macOS: Apple notarization via codesign
• Windows: Authenticode signing via signtool
• Linux: GPG signatures for checksums

Builds are reproducible using:

• Locked dependency versions (Cargo.lock)
• Deterministic compiler settings
• CI/CD with fixed toolchain versions

Each bot runs in an isolated sandbox:

• OS-level process isolation
• Resource quotas (CPU, memory, network)
• File system access controls

• Per-bot network policies
• Domain allowlists
• Rate limiting
• TLS for all external connections

• Local-only storage (no cloud by default)
• Optional SQLCipher encryption at rest
• OS keychain for secrets
• No telemetry without explicit opt-in
