This security policy applies to the MON CS DOCS Media repository. We are committed to maintaining the security and integrity of all media assets used by the MON CS DOCS platform.

This repository contains images, diagrams, illustrations, and related visual resources. While it does not host executable code, we maintain security standards to protect against malicious content, unauthorized modifications, and intellectual property violations.

Security updates are applied to the current main branch. Media assets are versioned alongside the main moncsdocs repository. Deprecated or replaced assets may be removed rather than patched.

If you discover a security issue related to media assets in this repository, please report it through one of the following channels:

1. Private Vulnerability Reporting (Recommended)

   • Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting feature
   • Navigate to the "Security" tab → "Report a vulnerability"
   • This creates a private security advisory visible only to repository maintainers

2. Email

   • Primary: security.mon@moebiusorder.com
   • Alternate: mcdocs@moebiusorder.com

3. Web Form

   • Submit via: mcdocs.moebiusorder.com/report

4. GitHub Issue (For non-sensitive security improvements only)

   • Use for security enhancements or policy clarifications
   • Do NOT use for active vulnerabilities or sensitive disclosures

When reporting a vulnerability, please provide:

• Asset Path: Full path to the affected media file(s)
• Description: Clear explanation of the security concern
• Impact Assessment: Potential harm to users or platform integrity
• Evidence: Screenshots, file metadata, or technical analysis
• Discovery Method: How you identified the issue
• Suggested Remediation: Recommendations for fixing or replacing the asset

Please report:

• Malicious Content: Embedded scripts, exploits, or malware in image files
• Privacy Violations: Assets containing personally identifiable information (PII)
• Intellectual Property Issues: Copyright violations or unauthorized use of third-party assets
• Metadata Exposure: Sensitive information in EXIF or file metadata
• Supply Chain Concerns: Compromised source files or suspicious modifications
• Access Control Issues: Unauthorized access to private or restricted media

The following are generally out of scope:

• Vulnerabilities in the MON CS DOCS platform infrastructure (not in this repository)
• Issues with third-party hosting, CDN, or delivery mechanisms
• General quality concerns or artistic feedback unrelated to security
• Social engineering attempts or phishing unrelated to repository content
• Denial of service against GitHub or CDN infrastructure

• Acknowledgment: We will acknowledge receipt of your report within 48 hours
• Initial Assessment: Triage and severity assessment within 5 business days
• Status Updates: Regular updates every 7 days until resolution
• Resolution: Critical issues will be addressed within 30 days when feasible

We use the following severity levels:

• Critical: Active malicious content threatening user safety or system integrity
• High: Significant security or privacy risk with clear exploitation path
• Medium: Moderate risk requiring specific conditions to exploit
• Low: Limited impact or theoretical vulnerability
• Informational: Security improvements or best practice recommendations

Depending on severity, we may:

1. Remove: Delete the affected asset immediately
2. Replace: Substitute with a secure alternative
3. Sanitize: Strip metadata or re-encode to remove embedded threats
4. Quarantine: Move to private storage pending investigation
5. Update Documentation: Revise usage guidelines to prevent recurrence

• We practice responsible disclosure and will work with you to coordinate public release
• Security fixes will be deployed before public disclosure whenever possible
• We request a 90-day disclosure window for critical vulnerabilities
• Credit will be given to researchers who report valid vulnerabilities (unless anonymity is requested)

This repository implements the following security controls:

• Private Vulnerability Reporting: Enabled for confidential security disclosures
• Secret Scanning: Detection of accidentally committed credentials
• Push Protection: Prevents commits containing detected secrets
• Dependency Graph: Tracks any tooling dependencies
• Branch Protection: Main branch requires pull request reviews

• Limited Write Access: Only authorized maintainers can commit directly
• Code Owners: Designated reviewers for all media contributions
• Two-Factor Authentication: Required for all maintainers with write access
• Audit Logging: All repository activities are logged and monitored

All media contributions undergo:

• Format Verification: Ensure files match declared MIME types
• Malware Scanning: Automated scanning for embedded threats
• Metadata Review: Inspection for sensitive or unnecessary metadata
• Size Limits: Enforcement of maximum file sizes to prevent abuse
• License Verification: Confirmation of proper attribution and licensing

• Immutable History: Git tracking provides full audit trail
• Hash Verification: SHA checksums for all committed assets
• Regular Audits: Periodic review of all media assets
• Provenance Tracking: Documentation of asset sources and creators

When contributing media assets:

• Strip Metadata: Remove EXIF data, location information, and personal identifiers
• Use Safe Formats: Prefer PNG, SVG, WebP over formats with scripting capabilities
• Optimize Files: Compress images appropriately to reduce attack surface
• Verify Sources: Only contribute assets you created or have permission to use
• Check Licenses: Ensure all assets comply with CC BY-SA 4.0 requirements
• Document Origin: Provide attribution and source information in commit messages
• Avoid Executable Content: No embedded scripts, macros, or active content

When a vulnerability is confirmed:

1. Immediate Action: Affected assets are removed or quarantined
2. Investigation: Root cause analysis and impact assessment
3. Remediation: Secure replacement assets are prepared
4. Deployment: New assets are published to replace vulnerable ones
5. Notification: Security advisory is published with details and attribution
6. Communication: Relevant parties are notified (sponsors, platform users, security lists)
