This is a proposal for the Guacamole PMC to review — please correct, reject, or discuss as needed. The PMC owns the document; nothing here is a requirement.
This adds a draft umbrella
THREAT_MODEL.mdfor the Apache Guacamole family, aSECURITY.md(the code repos don't currently carry one — the security policy lives only at guacamole.apache.org/security), and anAGENTS.mdwiringAGENTS.md -> SECURITY.md -> THREAT_MODEL.mdso an automated scanner can mechanically discover it. Path 3 as agreed on the list (we draft the v0, the PMC reviews). It lands on apache/guacamole-client as the canonical home; guacamole-server and guacamole-website get small pointer PRs to it once you're happy with the shape.Generated from Guacamole's public artefacts (the security page, docs, advisory history) via the
threat-model-producerrubric. Provenance-tagged throughout; every (inferred) claim routes to a numbered §14 question (15 of them).The model's spine is the guacd(C) / client(Java) / website(static) split:
Two calls we'd especially value your confirmation on (both in §14 wave 1): (1) guacd is not an auth boundary and must be kept off untrusted networks — a report against an exposed
:4822is a misconfiguration, not an in-model bug; (2) the plaintext/unauthenticated webapp↔guacd default (guacd-ssloff on a trusted segment) as the supported production posture.What's most useful: walk the §14 questions and confirm / correct / strike each — a one-liner each is enough. This PR only adds files; it edits no existing content.
Context: the ASF Security team is preparing projects for an automated agentic security scan we're piloting; discoverability is the one hard prerequisite.
