Security: basecamp/once-campfire

SECURITY.md

Security

Report vulnerabilities through our HackerOne program or at https://github.com/basecamp/once-campfire/security. Note that Campfire is in scope for our security program, but is not bounty eligible.

Trust model

Campfire is self-hosted and single-tenant, so the administrator is the server operator, with shell, network, and database access already. Anything requiring the administrator role grants nothing they do not already have, and is not a vulnerability.

We do want reports of anything a non-administrator can reach, and of any credential or network path held by the Campfire process but not by the operator's own shell.

Intentional behavior

Bot webhook URLs are unrestricted: an administrator can point one at any address, including internal ones, because operators legitimately wire bots to their own services. Link unfurling is different because any member can trigger it by pasting a URL, so it validates destinations through RestrictedHTTP::PrivateNetworkGuard. The difference is who picks the destination.
