Security Policy

Supported Versions

This is a single-file static study app with no backend, no user accounts, and no server-side components. All data is stored locally in your browser's localStorage.

Component Status
AWS_SCS-C03_Study_Guide.html ✅ Actively maintained

Scope

Because this app runs entirely in the browser with no external API calls and no user data leaving the device, the attack surface is limited to:

  • Client-side JavaScript — logic bugs, XSS via DOM manipulation
  • localStorage — data stored in the browser (progress, scores, flashcard ratings)
  • Supply chain — no external dependencies are loaded at runtime; the file is fully self-contained

Out of scope: server infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, third-party services (there are none).

Reporting a Vulnerability

If you find a security issue — XSS, unintended data exposure, or anything that could affect a user who opens this file — please report it responsibly before disclosing publicly.

Report via GitHub: Open a GitHub Security Advisory on this repository (private by default — only you and the maintainer can see it until disclosed).

Include:

  • A description of the vulnerability and potential impact
  • Steps to reproduce
  • The browser and OS you tested on
  • Any suggested fix, if you have one

I'll respond within 5 business days and aim to push a fix within 14 days for any confirmed issue.

What We Ask

  • Give reasonable time to fix before public disclosure
  • Don't access or modify other users' data (there are no other users — it's a local app)
  • Don't use findings to disrupt availability

Thank you for helping keep this project secure.
