- ✅ Post-quantum cryptography (ML-DSA/Dilithium3) for signatures
- ✅ Comprehensive input validation tests
- ✅ DoS resistance testing
- ✅ No hardcoded secrets detected
- ✅ Safe command execution patterns
- ✅ Path traversal prevention mechanisms

**Critical Issues:** 0
**High-Risk Issues:** 2
**Medium-Risk Issues:** 8
**Low-Risk Issues:** 12

---

## Critical Issues (Fix Immediately)

**None found.** 🎉

The codebase has no critical security vulnerabilities that require immediate remediation.

---

## High-Risk Issues

### H1. Unsafe Pointer Operations in Atomic Snapshot Promoter

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/ontology/promotion.rs:65-144`

**Issue:**
Multiple unsafe blocks manipulate raw pointers without comprehensive validation:

```rust
unsafe {
    (*ptr).increment_refs();
    SnapshotGuard { handle: NonNull::new(ptr).unwrap() }
}

unsafe {
    if (*old_ptr).decrement_refs() == 1 {
        let _ = Box::from_raw(old_ptr);
    }
}
```

**Risk:**
- Use-after-free vulnerabilities
- Race conditions in multi-threaded scenarios
- Memory corruption if reference counting is violated
- Potential for double-free attacks

**Proof of Concept:**
```rust
// Thread 1 calls promote() while Thread 2 reads
// Race condition in reference count update
let promoter = AtomicSnapshotPromoter::new(snapshot);
thread::spawn(|| promoter.promote(new_snapshot)); // Unsafe swap
thread::spawn(|| promoter.get_current());         // Unsafe read
// Could result in accessing freed memory
```

**Recommended Fix:**
1. Add debug assertions to validate pointer invariants:
   ```rust
   unsafe {
       debug_assert!(!ptr.is_null());
       debug_assert!((*ptr).reference_count.load(Ordering::Acquire) > 0);
       (*ptr).increment_refs();
   }
   ```

2. Use `Arc` instead of raw pointers for reference counting:
   ```rust
   pub struct AtomicSnapshotPromoter {
       current: AtomicArc<SnapshotHandle>,
       // No raw pointers, safe reference counting
   }
   ```

3. Add property-based tests for concurrent access:
   ```rust
   #[test]
   fn test_concurrent_promotion_safety() {
       // Spawn 100 threads doing promotions
       // Verify no memory corruption
   }
   ```

**Implementation Effort:** 2-3 days (requires careful refactoring)

---

### H2. Dependency Vulnerabilities (Wasmtime)

**Location:** `Cargo.lock` - wasmtime 28.0.1

**Issue:**
Two known CVEs in Wasmtime dependency:
- **RUSTSEC-2025-0046**: Host panic with `fd_renumber` WASIp1 function (Severity: 3.3 Low)
- **RUSTSEC-2025-0118**: Unsound API access to shared linear memory (Severity: 1.8 Low)

**Risk:**
- Host panic could cause DoS attacks
- Unsound memory access could lead to data corruption
- WebAssembly sandbox escape potential

**Affected Components:**
```
wasmtime 28.0.1
└── ggen-marketplace 3.2.0
    └── ggen-cli-lib 3.2.0
        └── ggen 3.2.0
```

**Recommended Fix:**
```toml
# Upgrade to patched version in Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
wasmtime = ">=34.0.2"  # or 33.0.2 for minor update
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day (test compatibility after upgrade)

---

## Medium-Risk Issues

### M1. Panic in Library Code (Template Parsing)

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/template.rs:845, 887`

**Issue:**
```rust
panic!("Template parsing is not idempotent");
panic!("Expected path to be preserved, but got None");
```

**Risk:**
- Library code should not panic
- Could crash CLI unexpectedly
- No graceful error handling for users

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Replace panic! with Result
return Err(Error::new("Template parsing is not idempotent"));
return Err(Error::new("Expected path to be preserved"));
```

**Implementation Effort:** 2 hours

---

### M2. Excessive .unwrap() in Non-Test Code

**Location:** Multiple files (20+ instances)

**Issue:**
```rust
// crates/ggen-core/src/generator.rs:439
Pipeline::new().unwrap()

// crates/ggen-core/src/poc.rs:323
&std::env::current_dir().unwrap().display().to_string()

// crates/ggen-core/src/inject.rs:408
let regex = regex::Regex::new(&pattern).unwrap();
```

**Risk:**
- Process crashes on unexpected input
- Poor user experience (no error messages)
- Potential for DoS through crafted inputs

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Replace with proper error handling
Pipeline::new()
    .map_err(|e| Error::with_context("Failed to create pipeline", &e.to_string()))?;

std::env::current_dir()
    .map_err(|e| Error::with_context("Failed to get current directory", &e.to_string()))?
    .display()
    .to_string();

regex::Regex::new(&pattern)
    .map_err(|e| Error::with_context("Invalid regex pattern", &e.to_string()))?;
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1-2 days (systematic replacement)

---

### M3. Environment Variable Trust Without Validation

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/generator.rs:426, github.rs:321`

**Issue:**
```rust
// Trusts all environment variables without sanitization
for (k, v) in env::vars() {
    let sanitized_key = k.replace(|c: char| !c.is_alphanumeric() && c != '_', "_");
    // No validation of sanitized_value!
    (sanitized_key, sanitized_value)
}

// GitHub token from env without validation
let token = env::var("GITHUB_TOKEN")
    .ok()
    .or_else(|| env::var("GH_TOKEN").ok());
// No format validation on token
```

**Risk:**
- Malicious environment variables could be injected
- No validation of token format (could be arbitrary strings)
- Template injection through environment variables

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Validate environment variable values
fn sanitize_env_value(value: &str) -> Result<String> {
    // Check for control characters, null bytes
    if value.contains('\0') || value.contains('\r') || value.len() > 10000 {
        return Err(Error::new("Invalid environment variable value"));
    }
    Ok(value.to_string())
}

// Validate GitHub token format
fn validate_github_token(token: &str) -> Result<String> {
    if !token.starts_with("ghp_") && !token.starts_with("gho_") {
        return Err(Error::new("Invalid GitHub token format"));
    }
    if token.len() < 40 || token.len() > 255 {
        return Err(Error::new("Invalid GitHub token length"));
    }
    Ok(token.to_string())
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### M4. Command Injection Risk in Process Execution

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/lifecycle/exec.rs:461-465, pipeline.rs:596`

**Issue:**
```rust
let mut c = Command::new("sh");
c.arg("-c").arg(cmd);

let output = Command::new("sh")
    .arg("-c")
    .arg(&hook.command)
    .current_dir(std::env::current_dir()?)
    .output()?;
```

**Risk:**
- Commands are executed through shell (`sh -c`)
- User-controlled input in `hook.command` could execute arbitrary commands
- No input sanitization before shell execution

**Proof of Concept:**
```toml
# In make.toml, malicious hook
[hooks.before_build]
command = "echo 'pwned'; rm -rf /; echo 'done'"
```

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Parse command and execute directly without shell
fn execute_command_safely(cmd: &str) -> Result<Output> {
    let parts: Vec<&str> = cmd.split_whitespace().collect();
    if parts.is_empty() {
        return Err(Error::new("Empty command"));
    }

    let mut command = Command::new(parts[0]);
    for arg in &parts[1..] {
        // Validate arguments don't contain shell metacharacters
        if arg.contains(';') || arg.contains('|') || arg.contains('&') {
            return Err(Error::new("Invalid command argument"));
        }
        command.arg(arg);
    }

    command.output().map_err(Into::into)
}

// Or allow only a whitelist of commands
const ALLOWED_COMMANDS: &[&str] = &["cargo", "npm", "git", "make"];
```

**Implementation Effort:** 2-3 days

---

### M5. Path Traversal in Template Resolution

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/resolver.rs:200+`

**Issue:**
While there are comments about preventing path traversal, the actual validation is not visible:

```rust
/// - Path traversal is detected (e.g., `../` in template path)
```

**Risk:**
- If not properly validated, could access files outside pack directory
- `pack_id:../../../etc/passwd` could read sensitive files
- Symlink attacks if not checking canonical paths

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
pub fn resolve(&self, template_ref: &str) -> Result<TemplateSource> {
    let parts: Vec<&str> = template_ref.split(':').collect();
    if parts.len() != 2 {
        return Err(Error::new("Invalid template reference format"));
    }

    let (pack_id, template_path) = (parts[0], parts[1]);

    // Prevent path traversal
    if template_path.contains("..") || template_path.starts_with('/') {
        return Err(Error::new("Path traversal detected in template path"));
    }

    // Get pack location
    let pack = self.cache_manager.get_cached_pack(pack_id)?;
    let template_full_path = pack.path.join("templates").join(template_path);

    // Canonicalize and verify it's within pack directory
    let canonical_template = template_full_path.canonicalize()
        .map_err(|_| Error::new("Template not found"))?;
    let canonical_pack = pack.path.canonicalize()?;

    if !canonical_template.starts_with(&canonical_pack) {
        return Err(Error::new("Template path escapes pack directory"));
    }

    Ok(TemplateSource { /* ... */ })
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### M6. No Rate Limiting on Registry API Calls

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/registry.rs`

**Issue:**
No visible rate limiting on registry API calls:

```rust
let registry_url = std::env::var("GGEN_REGISTRY_URL")
    .unwrap_or_else(|_| "https://registry.ggen.io".to_string());
```

**Risk:**
- Could be used to DoS the registry server
- No backoff on failed requests
- Could exhaust local resources with rapid queries

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
use governor::{Quota, RateLimiter};
use std::sync::Arc;

pub struct RegistryClient {
    rate_limiter: Arc<RateLimiter</* ... */>>,
}

impl RegistryClient {
    pub fn new() -> Self {
        // Allow 10 requests per second
        let quota = Quota::per_second(NonZeroU32::new(10).unwrap());
        Self {
            rate_limiter: Arc::new(RateLimiter::direct(quota)),
        }
    }

    async fn fetch_with_rate_limit(&self, url: &str) -> Result<Response> {
        self.rate_limiter.until_ready().await;
        // Make request...
    }
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### M7. SPARQL Injection Potential

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/graph/query.rs, register.rs`

**Issue:**
SPARQL queries are constructed from user input without parameterization:

```rust
pub fn execute(&self, sparql: &str) -> Result<QueryResults<'a>> {
    self.graph.query(sparql)
}

// Templates can inject arbitrary SPARQL
{% set slug = sparql(query="SELECT ?s WHERE { ?s a ex:Type }", var="s") %}
```

**Risk:**
- Malicious queries could extract all data
- Expensive queries could cause DoS
- No query complexity limits

**Proof of Concept:**
```rust
// User provides malicious query
let query = "SELECT * WHERE { ?s ?p ?o } LIMIT 1000000000";
graph.query(query); // DoS through huge result set
```

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Add query validation and limits
fn validate_sparql_query(query: &str) -> Result<()> {
    // Parse and analyze query
    let parsed = SparqlEvaluator::new()
        .parse_query(query)
        .map_err(|e| Error::new("Invalid SPARQL query"))?;

    // Check for LIMIT clause
    if !query.contains("LIMIT") {
        return Err(Error::new("SPARQL query must include LIMIT"));
    }

    // Extract and validate LIMIT value
    let limit_value = extract_limit(query)?;
    if limit_value > 10000 {
        return Err(Error::new("SPARQL LIMIT too large (max 10000)"));
    }

    // Reject UPDATE/DELETE operations from templates
    if query.contains("DELETE") || query.contains("INSERT") {
        return Err(Error::new("Only SELECT queries allowed in templates"));
    }

    Ok(())
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 2 days

---

### M8. Missing Input Validation on File Permissions

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/templates/generator.rs`

**Issue:**
File creation with user-controlled content but no validation of file permissions.

**Risk:**
- Could create world-writable files
- Could create files with setuid bit
- No validation of Unix permissions in templates

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
use std::os::unix::fs::PermissionsExt;

fn create_file_safely(path: &Path, content: &str) -> Result<()> {
    let mut file = File::create(path)?;
    file.write_all(content.as_bytes())?;

    // Set safe permissions (owner read/write, group/others read)
    let mut perms = file.metadata()?.permissions();
    perms.set_mode(0o644);
    std::fs::set_permissions(path, perms)?;

    Ok(())
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

## Low-Risk Issues

### L1. .expect() in Library Code

**Location:** Multiple files (20+ instances)

**Issue:** Similar to M2 but in less critical paths

**Recommended Fix:** Replace with proper error propagation

**Implementation Effort:** 1-2 days

---

### L2. Unmaintained Dependencies

**Location:** `Cargo.lock`

**Issue:**
- `atty` 0.2.14 - unmaintained (RUSTSEC-2024-0375)
- `fxhash` 0.2.1 - unmaintained (RUSTSEC-2025-0057)
- `instant` 0.1.13 - unmaintained (RUSTSEC-2024-0384)
- `json5` - unmaintained

**Risk:** No security patches for discovered vulnerabilities

**Recommended Fix:**
```toml
# Replace unmaintained dependencies
atty = "0.2" → is-terminal = "0.4"
fxhash = "0.2" → rustc-hash = "2.0"
instant = "0.1" → web-time = "1.0"
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### L3. No Signature Verification on Registry Index

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/registry.rs`

**Issue:** Registry index is fetched over HTTPS but not cryptographically signed

**Risk:**
- Compromised registry could serve malicious packages
- MITM attacks if HTTPS is compromised

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Sign registry index with PQC signature
pub struct SignedRegistryIndex {
    index: RegistryIndex,
    signature: String,
    public_key: String,
}

impl SignedRegistryIndex {
    pub fn verify(&self) -> Result<()> {
        let verifier = PqcVerifier::from_base64(&self.public_key)?;
        let index_json = serde_json::to_string(&self.index)?;
        let signature = base64::decode(&self.signature)?;

        if !verifier.verify(index_json.as_bytes(), &signature)? {
            return Err(Error::new("Registry index signature invalid"));
        }
        Ok(())
    }
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 2 days

---

### L4. No Replay Protection in PQC Signatures

**Location:** `crates/ggen-core/src/pqc.rs:180-195`

**Issue:**
Test explicitly shows no replay protection:

```rust
// Signature should be valid multiple times (no replay protection at signature level)
assert!(verifier.verify(message, &signature)?);
assert!(verifier.verify(message, &signature)?);
```

**Risk:**
- Old signatures can be replayed
- No timestamp or nonce in signatures

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
pub fn sign_with_timestamp(&self, message: &[u8]) -> (Vec<u8>, i64) {
    let timestamp = chrono::Utc::now().timestamp();
    let message_with_ts = format!("{}|{}",
        String::from_utf8_lossy(message),
        timestamp
    );
    let signature = self.sign(message_with_ts.as_bytes());
    (signature, timestamp)
}

pub fn verify_with_timestamp(
    &self,
    message: &[u8],
    signature: &[u8],
    timestamp: i64,
    max_age_seconds: i64
) -> Result<bool> {
    let now = chrono::Utc::now().timestamp();
    if now - timestamp > max_age_seconds {
        return Err(Error::new("Signature expired"));
    }

    let message_with_ts = format!("{}|{}",
        String::from_utf8_lossy(message),
        timestamp
    );
    self.verify(message_with_ts.as_bytes(), signature)
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### L5. Temporary File Cleanup Not Guaranteed

**Location:** Various files using `TempDir::new()`

**Issue:**
Temporary directories rely on Drop trait, but panics could prevent cleanup

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
use scopeguard::defer;

fn process_with_temp_dir() -> Result<()> {
    let temp_dir = TempDir::new()?;
    defer! {
        // Guaranteed cleanup even on panic
        let _ = std::fs::remove_dir_all(temp_dir.path());
    }

    // Processing...
    Ok(())
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### L6. No CSRF Protection for Template Operations

**Location:** Template generation system

**Issue:** If templates trigger side effects, no CSRF tokens

**Recommended Fix:** Add CSRF tokens for operations that modify state

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### L7. Information Disclosure in Error Messages

**Location:** Various error handling code

**Issue:**
Error messages may expose internal paths:

```rust
Error::with_context("Failed to read file", &e.to_string())
// Could expose: "Failed to read file: /home/user/.cache/ggen/..."
```

**Recommended Fix:**
```rust
// Sanitize error messages for external display
fn sanitize_error_for_user(error: &Error) -> String {
    error.to_string()
        .replace(env::home_dir().to_str(), "$HOME")
        .replace("/etc/", "$ETC/")
}
```

**Implementation Effort:** 1 day

---

### L8-L12. Additional Low-Risk Issues

- **L8:** No Content-Security-Policy for generated HTML
- **L9:** No X-Frame-Options for web-served content
- **L10:** Missing Subresource Integrity (SRI) for CDN assets
- **L11:** No audit log for security-sensitive operations
- **L12:** Missing security headers in HTTP responses

**Implementation Effort:** 1-2 days total

---

## Security Best Practices

### ✅ Strengths

1. **Post-Quantum Cryptography**
   - Uses ML-DSA (Dilithium3) for quantum-resistant signatures
   - Proper key generation and verification
   - Strong cryptographic foundations

2. **Comprehensive Security Testing**
   - Dedicated security test suite
   - Signature verification tests
   - Input validation tests
   - DoS resistance tests

3. **No Hardcoded Secrets**
   - All credentials from environment variables
   - No API keys or passwords in source code

4. **Safe File Operations**
   - Uses `canonicalize()` to prevent symlink attacks
   - Path validation in several places

5. **Strong Type Safety**
   - Rust's type system prevents many vulnerabilities
   - Memory safety guaranteed (except unsafe blocks)

### ⚠️ Patterns to Avoid

1. **Excessive unwrap()/expect()**
   ```rust
   ❌ BAD:  Pipeline::new().unwrap()
   ✅ GOOD: Pipeline::new()?
   ```

2. **Panics in Library Code**
   ```rust
   ❌ BAD:  panic!("Template parsing failed")
   ✅ GOOD: return Err(Error::new("Template parsing failed"))
   ```

3. **Shell Command Execution**
   ```rust
   ❌ BAD:  Command::new("sh").arg("-c").arg(user_input)
   ✅ GOOD: Command::new("cargo").arg("build")  // Direct execution
   ```

4. **Unsafe Without Validation**
   ```rust
   ❌ BAD:  unsafe { (*ptr).field }
   ✅ GOOD: unsafe {
       debug_assert!(!ptr.is_null());
       (*ptr).field
   }
   ```

### 📋 Recommended Patterns

1. **Input Validation**
   ```rust
   fn validate_pack_id(id: &str) -> Result<()> {
       if id.contains("..") || id.contains('/') || id.contains('\\') {
           return Err(Error::new("Invalid pack ID"));
       }
       if id.len() > 255 {
           return Err(Error::new("Pack ID too long"));
       }
       Ok(())
   }
   ```

2. **Safe Command Execution**
   ```rust
   const ALLOWED_COMMANDS: &[&str] = &["cargo", "npm", "git"];

   fn execute_safe_command(cmd: &str, args: &[&str]) -> Result<Output> {
       if !ALLOWED_COMMANDS.contains(&cmd) {
           return Err(Error::new("Command not allowed"));
       }
       Command::new(cmd).args(args).output().map_err(Into::into)
   }
   ```

3. **Rate Limiting**
   ```rust
   use governor::{Quota, RateLimiter};

   let limiter = RateLimiter::direct(Quota::per_second(
       NonZeroU32::new(10).unwrap()
   ));
   limiter.until_ready().await;
   ```

4. **Secure File Creation**
   ```rust

## Testing Recommendations

### 1. Fuzzing
```rust
// Add cargo-fuzz tests for parsers
#[cfg(fuzzing)]
mod fuzz {
    use libfuzzer_sys::fuzz_target;

    fuzz_target!(|data: &[u8]| {
        if let Ok(s) = std::str::from_utf8(data) {
            let _ = parse_template_reference(s);
        }
    });
}
```

### 2. Property-Based Testing
```rust
use proptest::prelude::*;

proptest! {
    #[test]
    fn test_pack_id_validation(s in "\\PC*") {
        let result = validate_pack_id(&s);
        // Verify security properties hold for all inputs
    }
}
```

### 3. Security Integration Tests
```rust
#[test]
fn test_path_traversal_prevention() {
    let resolver = TemplateResolver::new(...);

    let attacks = [
        "pack:../../../etc/passwd",
        "pack:./../secret",
        "pack:/etc/passwd",
        "pack:./../../.ssh/id_rsa",
    ];

    for attack in &attacks {
        assert!(resolver.resolve(attack).is_err());
    }
}
```

## Compliance & Standards

### Cryptography
- ✅ Uses NIST-approved ML-DSA (Dilithium3)
- ✅ SHA-256 for hashing
- ✅ TLS 1.3 for transport (via rustls)
- ⚠️ No FIPS 140-2 certification (if required)

### Memory Safety
- ✅ Rust memory safety by default
- ⚠️ Unsafe blocks need additional review (2 instances)

### Input Validation
- ✅ Comprehensive input validation tests
- ⚠️ Need runtime validation enforcement

### Dependency Security
- ✅ Regular `cargo audit` runs
- ⚠️ 2 CVEs in wasmtime (low severity)
- ⚠️ 4 unmaintained dependencies
