Reporting a Vulnerability

We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security issue in the BMW Agents framework, please follow these steps:

  1. Do not disclose the vulnerability publicly until it has been addressed by the maintainers.
  2. Submit a report to the project maintainers by opening an issue labeled "[SECURITY]" with a clear description of the issue.
  3. Include relevant information such as:
    • Type of vulnerability
    • Affected components or functionality
    • Steps to reproduce
    • Potential impact
    • Suggested fix (if any)

Response Process

When a security vulnerability is reported, the maintainers will:

  1. Acknowledge receipt of the vulnerability report within 48 hours
  2. Assess the vulnerability and determine its scope and severity
  3. Develop and test a fix
  4. Release a patched version as soon as possible

Security Best Practices

When using BMW Agents, consider these security best practices:

  1. API Keys: Store API keys and credentials securely. Never hardcode them in your application code.
  2. Tool Permissions: Be mindful of the permissions granted to tools used with agents. Tools should follow the principle of least privilege.
  3. Input Validation: Validate and sanitize all inputs, especially user-provided content that might be used in prompts.
  4. Content Filtering: Implement appropriate content filtering for agent outputs when deployed in public-facing applications.
  5. Regular Updates: Keep your BMW Agents installation up to date with the latest security patches.

Security-related Dependencies

Be aware of security implications in dependencies:

  • LLM Providers: Review the security policies of any LLM provider you're using with BMW Agents
  • Third-party Tools: Ensure any third-party tools integrated with your agents are properly vetted for security issues

Disclosure Policy

We follow a coordinated disclosure approach. Once a vulnerability is fixed, we will publish security advisories with appropriate credits to the reporter.
