# Security Checklist for Hostaway MCP ## Pre-Commit Security Hooks Configuration ### ✅ Implemented Security Scanning Tools 1. **Gitleaks** (v8.18.2) - Status: ✅ Configured with custom rules - Config: `.gitleaks.toml` - Detects: API keys, tokens, passwords, database URLs - Custom rules for: Hostaway API keys, Supabase keys, JWT secrets 2. **Bandit** (v1.7.10) - Status: ✅ Configured - Scans: Python code for security vulnerabilities - Coverage: OWASP Top 10 patterns 3. **Safety** - Status: ✅ Configured - Checks: Python dependencies for known CVEs - Files: `requirements*.txt` 4. **Semgrep** (v1.97.0) - Status: ✅ Configured - Advanced static analysis for security patterns - Auto-configured with security rules 5. **ESLint Security Plugin** - Status: ✅ Configured - Config: `.eslintrc.security.json` - Checks: JavaScript/TypeScript security patterns 6. **Hardcoded Credentials Check** - Status: ✅ Custom hook configured - Pattern matching for passwords and API keys 7. **Built-in Security Hooks** - ✅ detect-private-key - ✅ detect-aws-credentials - ✅ check-yaml - ✅ check-merge-conflict ## Security Audit Script Run comprehensive security audit: ```bash ./scripts/security-audit.sh ``` This script checks: - Secret detection - Python security vulnerabilities - Dependency vulnerabilities - Hardcoded credentials - Environment file configuration - SSL/TLS configuration - SQL injection patterns - Security headers - File permissions ## Manual Security Verification ### Installation 1. Install pre-commit hooks: ```bash pre-commit install pre-commit install --hook-type commit-msg ``` 2. Update hooks to latest versions: ```bash pre-commit autoupdate ``` 3. Run all hooks manually: ```bash pre-commit run --all-files ``` ### Testing Individual Hooks ```bash # Test gitleaks only pre-commit run gitleaks --all-files # Test bandit only pre-commit run bandit --all-files # Test semgrep only pre-commit run semgrep --all-files # Test hardcoded credentials pre-commit run check-hardcoded-credentials --all-files ``` ## Security Best Practices Enforced ### 1. Secret Management - ✅ No hardcoded credentials - ✅ Environment variables for sensitive data - ✅ Supabase Vault for credential encryption - ✅ `.env` files in `.gitignore` ### 2. Authentication & Authorization - ✅ JWT token validation - ✅ Row Level Security (RLS) in database - ✅ API key rotation support - ✅ Secure session management ### 3. Input Validation - ✅ Pydantic models for API validation - ✅ SQL injection prevention (parameterized queries) - ✅ XSS protection in React components - ✅ CORS configuration ### 4. Dependency Management - ✅ Regular vulnerability scanning - ✅ Automated security updates via Dependabot - ✅ Lock files for reproducible builds ### 5. Error Handling - ✅ No sensitive data in error messages - ✅ Proper logging without credentials - ✅ Graceful error handling ## Common Security Issues and Fixes ### Issue: Hardcoded API Key ```python # ❌ BAD api_key = "sk_live_abc123xyz456" # ✅ GOOD api_key = os.environ.get("HOSTAWAY_API_KEY") ``` ### Issue: SQL Injection ```python # ❌ BAD query = f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = {user_id}" # ✅ GOOD query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = %s" cursor.execute(query, (user_id,)) ``` ### Issue: Insecure SSL ```python # ❌ BAD response = httpx.get(url, verify=False) # ✅ GOOD response = httpx.get(url) # SSL verification enabled by default ``` ### Issue: Exposed Sensitive Data ```typescript // ❌ BAD console.log(`Password: ${password}`); // ✅ GOOD console.log('Authentication successful'); ``` ## CI/CD Security Integration Add to your CI/CD pipeline: ```yaml # GitHub Actions example - name: Security Scan run: | pip install bandit safety bandit -r src/ -f json -o bandit-report.json safety check --json npx gitleaks detect --source . --verbose ``` ## Security Headers (Next.js) Ensure `dashboard/next.config.js` includes: ```javascript const securityHeaders = [ { key: 'X-DNS-Prefetch-Control', value: 'on' }, { key: 'Strict-Transport-Security', value: 'max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload' }, { key: 'X-Frame-Options', value: 'SAMEORIGIN' }, { key: 'X-Content-Type-Options', value: 'nosniff' }, { key: 'X-XSS-Protection', value: '1; mode=block' }, { key: 'Referrer-Policy', value: 'origin-when-cross-origin' }, { key: 'Content-Security-Policy', value: "default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-eval' 'unsafe-inline'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline';" } ]; ``` ## Monitoring and Alerts 1. **Log Security Events** - Failed authentication attempts - API rate limit violations - Invalid input validation - Database query errors 2. **Regular Audits** - Weekly: Run `./scripts/security-audit.sh` - Monthly: Review dependency updates - Quarterly: Security assessment ## Incident Response If a security issue is detected: 1. **Immediate Actions** - Rotate affected credentials - Review access logs - Patch vulnerability 2. **Documentation** - Document in `SECURITY.md` - Create GitHub issue with `security` label - Update this checklist ## Compliance - OWASP Top 10 coverage - GDPR compliance for EU users - SOC 2 Type II considerations - PCI DSS for payment processing ## Contact Security issues should be reported to: security@yourcompany.com --- Last updated: 2025-10-15 Next review: 2025-11-15
