## Reporting a Vulnerability

**Do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.**

Report security issues via GitHub's private vulnerability reporting, or email the maintainer directly. Please include:

- Description of the vulnerability

- Potential impact
- Suggested fix (if any)

We will acknowledge receipt within 48 hours and aim to release a fix within 7 days for critical issues.

## Security Model

graphify is a **local development tool**. It runs as a Claude Code skill and optionally as a local MCP stdio server. It makes no network calls during graph analysis - only during `ingest` (explicit URL fetch by the user).

### Threat Surface

| Vector | Mitigation |
|--------|-----------|
| SSRF via URL fetch | `security.validate_url()` allows only `http` and `https` schemes. Redirect targets are re-validated by `_NoFileRedirectHandler` - a redirect to `file://` is blocked. |
| Oversized downloads | `safe_fetch()` streams responses and aborts at 50 MB. `safe_fetch_text()` aborts at 10 MB. |
| Non-2xx HTTP responses | `safe_fetch()` raises `HTTPError` on non-2xx status codes - error pages are not silently treated as content. |
| Path traversal in MCP server | `security.validate_graph_path()` resolves paths and requires them to be inside `graphify-out/`. Also requires the `graphify-out/` directory to exist. |
| XSS in graph HTML output | `security.sanitize_label()` strips control characters, caps at 256 chars, and HTML-escapes all node labels and edge titles before pyvis embeds them. |
| Prompt injection via node labels | `sanitize_label()` also applied to MCP text output - node labels from user-controlled source files cannot break the text format returned to agents. |
| YAML frontmatter injection | Newlines stripped from user-provided strings before embedding in YAML frontmatter (e.g. in `save_query_result()`). |
| Encoding crashes on source files | All tree-sitter byte slices decoded with `errors="replace"` - non-UTF-8 source files degrade gracefully instead of crashing extraction. |
| Symlink traversal | `os.walk(..., followlinks=False)` is explicit throughout `detect.py`. |
| Corrupted graph.json | `_load_graph()` in `serve.py` wraps `json.JSONDecodeError` and prints a clear recovery message instead of crashing. |

### What graphify does NOT do

- Does not run a network listener (MCP server communicates over stdio only)
- Does not execute code from source files (tree-sitter parses ASTs - no eval/exec)
- Does not use `shell=True` in any subprocess call
- Does not store credentials or API keys

### Optional network calls

- `ingest` subcommand: fetches URLs explicitly provided by the user
- PDF extraction: reads local files only (pypdf does not make network calls)
- watch mode: local filesystem events only (watchdog does not make network calls)
