Security Policy

Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue for security problems. Report them privately through GitHub's private vulnerability reporting. You should get a response within a week.

Scope

OpenWiki runs locally, downloads web pages and captions, and sends source text to the LLM provider you configure. Relevant issues include:

  • API keys leaking into logs, generated files, or error messages
  • Path traversal or file writes outside the workspace from crafted titles, URLs, or feeds
  • Unsafe handling of downloaded HTML or model output

Keeping keys safe

  • Keep keys in .env (git-ignored by openwiki init) or your environment, never in sources.json or code.
  • Restrict your YouTube Data API key to the YouTube Data API in the Google Cloud Console.
  • Use a local model (Ollama, LM Studio) if your sources are private.
