Security Posture

Riksdagsmonitor maintains strong security practices as documented in our Security Architecture:

Current Security Controls

  • โœ… Static Site Architecture โ€” No server-side code execution, no database vulnerabilities
  • โœ… HTTPS-Only โ€” TLS 1.3 via AWS CloudFront and GitHub Pages
  • โœ… Automated Security Scanning โ€” CodeQL, Dependabot, Secret Scanning
  • โœ… Supply Chain Security โ€” SHA-pinned GitHub Actions, step-security/harden-runner
  • โœ… Multi-Region Availability โ€” AWS CloudFront (us-east-1 primary, eu-west-1 replica) with GitHub Pages DR
  • โœ… SLSA Build Provenance โ€” Attestation for build integrity
  • โœ… Content Integrity โ€” Subresource Integrity (SRI) for CDN assets
  • โœ… Security Headers โ€” CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options

Reporting a Vulnerability

We take the security of Riksdagsmonitor seriously. If you have found a potential security vulnerability, we kindly ask you to report it privately, so that we can assess and address the issue before it becomes publicly known.

What Constitutes a Vulnerability

A vulnerability is a weakness or flaw in the project that can be exploited to compromise the security, integrity, or availability of the system or its data. Examples include, but are not limited to:

  • Cross-site scripting (XSS) in generated content
  • Insecure external resource loading
  • Exposed secrets or credentials
  • Supply chain vulnerabilities in dependencies
  • Content injection through data pipelines

How to Privately Report a Vulnerability using GitHub

  1. On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the riksdagsmonitor repository.
  2. Under the repository name, click Security.
  3. In the left sidebar, under "Reporting", click Advisories.
  4. Click Report a vulnerability to open the advisory form.
  5. Fill in the advisory details form with as much information as possible.
  6. At the bottom of the form, click Submit report.

Disclosure Timeline

Upon receipt of a vulnerability report, our team will:

  1. Acknowledge the report within 48 hours
  2. Validate the vulnerability within 7 days
  3. Develop and release a patch or mitigation within 30 days (depending on complexity and severity)
  4. Publish a security advisory with a detailed description of the vulnerability and the fix

Recognition and Anonymity

We appreciate your effort in helping us maintain a secure project. If your report results in a confirmed security fix, we will recognize your contribution in the release notes, unless you request to remain anonymous.
