  • Repositorio público para el control de versiones de código fuente


    El proyecto DEBE tener un repositorio público para el control de versiones de código fuente que sea legible públicamente y tenga URL. [repo_public]

    Repository on GitHub, which provides public git repositories with URLs.



    El repositorio fuente del proyecto DEBE rastrear qué cambios se realizaron, quién realizó los cambios y cuándo se realizaron los cambios. [repo_track]

    Repository on GitHub, which uses git. git can track the changes, who made them, and when they were made.



    To enable collaborative review, the project's source repository MUST include interim versions for review between releases; it MUST NOT include only final releases. [repo_interim]

    Git includes all commits.



    It is SUGGESTED that common distributed version control software be used (e.g., git) for the project's source repository. [repo_distributed]

    Repository on GitHub, which uses git. git is distributed.


  • Numeración única de versión


    The project results MUST have a unique version identifier for each release intended to be used by users. [version_unique]

    It is SUGGESTED that the Semantic Versioning (SemVer) or Calendar Versioning (CalVer) version numbering format be used for releases. It is SUGGESTED that those who use CalVer include a micro level value. [version_semver]


    It is SUGGESTED that projects identify each release within their version control system. For example, it is SUGGESTED that those using git identify each release using git tags. [version_tags]

    See https://github.com/marko-js/marko/tags for tags corresponding to each release


  • Notas de lanzamiento


    The project MUST provide, in each release, release notes that are a human-readable summary of major changes in that release to help users determine if they should upgrade and what the upgrade impact will be. The release notes MUST NOT be the raw output of a version control log (e.g., the "git log" command results are not release notes). Projects whose results are not intended for reuse in multiple locations (such as the software for a single website or service) AND employ continuous delivery MAY select "N/A". (URL required) [release_notes]

    https://github.com/marko-js/marko/blob/main/packages/marko/CHANGELOG.md is a human-readable summary, not just the git log.



    The release notes MUST identify every publicly known run-time vulnerability fixed in this release that already had a CVE assignment or similar when the release was created. This criterion may be marked as not applicable (N/A) if users typically cannot practically update the software themselves (e.g., as is often true for kernel updates). This criterion applies only to the project results, not to its dependencies. If there are no release notes or there have been no publicly known vulnerabilities, choose N/A. [release_notes_vulns]

    There have been no publicly known vulnerabilities


  • Bug-reporting process


    The project MUST provide a process for users to submit bug reports (e.g., using an issue tracker or a mailing list). (URL required) [report_process]

    The project SHOULD use an issue tracker for tracking individual issues. [report_tracker]

    The project MUST acknowledge a majority of bug reports submitted in the last 2-12 months (inclusive); the response need not include a fix. [report_responses]

    We're looking for: (acknowledged bug reports submitted in the last year) / (bug reports submitted in the last year) > 50%

    "In the last year" uses the "created:" flag. Like: created:>2022-03-22

    Acknowledgements can be counted in the Github search UI using "interactions:>0". For example:

    https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+created%3A%3E2022-03-23+interactions%3A%3E0

    How to identify which issues were bugs depends on conventions used by the project. For Marko they have the labels "bug" and "unverified bug". For example:

    https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+created%3A%3E2022-03-22+label%3A%22type%3Aunverified+bug%22%2Cbug+

    The UI gives the count:

    6 open, 7 closed For a total of 13

    Now looking at the interaction count, add interactions:>0: https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+created%3A%3E2022-03-22+label%3A%22type%3Aunverified+bug%22%2Cbug+interactions%3A%3E0

    The search string for that was is:issue created:>2022-03-22 label:"type:unverified bug",bug interactions:>0

    UI says 1 open, 7 closed for a total of 8

    8 bugs interacted with, 13 bugs filed. 8/13 = 61%



    The project SHOULD respond to a majority (>50%) of enhancement requests in the last 2-12 months (inclusive). [enhancement_responses]

    All issues in the past year: https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+created%3A%3E2022-03-22

    All enhancement requests in the past year: https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+created%3A%3E2022-03-22+label%3A%22type%3Afeature%22

    Counts: 1 open, 4 closed, 5 total.

    We can get a count on "responded to" using interactions:>0:

    https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues?q=is%3Aissue+created%3A%3E2022-03-22+label%3A%22type%3Afeature%22+interactions%3A%3E0+

    Counts: 1 open, 3 closed, 4 total.

    Final ratio is 4/5 = 80%



    El proyecto DEBE tener un archivo públicamente disponible para informes y respuestas para búsquedas posteriores. (URL required) [report_archive]

    https://github.com/marko-js/marko/issues is a publicly available archive for reports and responses, including closed issues.


  • Proceso de informe de vulnerabilidad


    The project MUST publish the process for reporting vulnerabilities on the project site. (URL required) [vulnerability_report_process]

    If private vulnerability reports are supported, the project MUST include how to send the information in a way that is kept private. (URL required) [vulnerability_report_private]

    https://github.com/coreinfrastructure/best-practices-badge/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#how_to_report_vulnerabilities

    Please use an email system (like Gmail) that supports hop-to-hop encryption using STARTTLS when reporting vulnerabilities. Examples of such systems include Gmail, Outlook.com, and runbox.com. See STARTTLS Everywhere if you wish to learn more about efforts to encourage the use of STARTTLS. Your email client should use encryption to communicate with your email system (i.e., if you use a web-based email client then use HTTPS, and if you use email client software then configure it to use encryption).



    The project's initial response time for any vulnerability report received in the last 6 months MUST be less than or equal to 14 days. [vulnerability_report_response]

    No vulnerability reports were received in the last six months.


  • Working build system


    Si el software generado por el proyecto requiere ser construido para su uso, el proyecto DEBE proporcionar un sistema de compilación que pueda satisfactoriamente reconstruir automáticamente el software a partir del código fuente. [build]

    Se SUGIERE que se utilicen herramientas comunes para construir el software. [build_common_tools]

    All the tools used in the build scripts at https://github.com/marko-js/marko/blob/main/package.json are well known:

    "build": "npm exec --ws -- babel ./src --out-dir ./dist --delete-dir-on-start --copy-files --config-file ../../babel.config.js --env-name=production && npm run build:types",
    "build:types": "node scripts/types-babel-types.mjs > packages/compiler/dist/types.d.ts && node scripts/types-babel-traverse.js > packages/compiler/dist/traverse.d.ts",
    "publish": "ENTRY=main:npm npm run set-entry && npm run build && changeset publish && ENTRY=main:dev npm run set-entry && npm ci",
    


    El proyecto DEBERÍA ser construible usando solo herramientas FLOSS. [build_floss_tools]

    Tools in build script -

    npm: Artistic License 2.0 babel: MIT license node: MIT license changeset: MIT license


  • Automated test suite


    The project MUST use at least one automated test suite that is publicly released as FLOSS (this test suite may be maintained as a separate FLOSS project). The project MUST clearly show or document how to run the test suite(s) (e.g., via a continuous integration (CI) script or via documentation in files such as BUILD.md, README.md, or CONTRIBUTING.md). [test]

    Unit tests use Mocha.



    Un conjunto de pruebas DEBERÍA ser invocable de forma estándar para ese lenguaje. [test_invocation]

    npm run test



    It is SUGGESTED that the test suite cover most (or ideally all) the code branches, input fields, and functionality. [test_most]

    89.73%

    File | % Stmts | % Branch | % Funcs | % Lines | Uncovered Line #s ---------------------------------------|---------|----------|---------|---------|------------------- All files | 89.73 | 83.34 | 86.93 | 89.93 |



    It is SUGGESTED that the project implement continuous integration (where new or changed code is frequently integrated into a central code repository and automated tests are run on the result). [test_continuous_integration]

    Tests are run on push to the main branch. See e.g. https://github.com/marko-js/marko/actions/runs/4208297860


  • New functionality testing


    The project MUST have a general policy (formal or not) that as major new functionality is added to the software produced by the project, tests of that functionality should be added to an automated test suite. [test_policy]

    The test coverage of 90% would be impossible if this wasn't true.



    The project MUST have evidence that the test_policy for adding tests has been adhered to in the most recent major changes to the software produced by the project. [tests_are_added]

    The feature PR at https://github.com/marko-js/marko/pull/1836/files includes tests.



    It is SUGGESTED that this policy on adding tests (see test_policy) be documented in the instructions for change proposals. [tests_documented_added]

    The template for "feat:" PRs has a checklist that includes a requirement that tests be added.

    `Checklist:

    • [ ] I have read the CONTRIBUTING document and have signed (or will sign) the CLA.
    • [ ] I have updated/added documentation affected by my changes.
    • [ ] I have added tests to cover my changes.`

  • Banderas de advertencia


    The project MUST enable one or more compiler warning flags, a "safe" language mode, or use a separate "linter" tool to look for code quality errors or common simple mistakes, if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can implement this criterion in the selected language. [warnings]

    package.json has linting scripts:

    "lint": "npm run lint:eslint && npm run lint:prettier -- -l", "lint:eslint": "eslint -f visualstudio .", "lint:prettier": "prettier \"./**/*{.ts,.js,.json,.md,.yml}\"",



    El proyecto DEBE abordar las advertencias. [warnings_fixed]

    The lint script invokes prettier to fix warnings at the level of convention.



    It is SUGGESTED that projects be maximally strict with warnings in the software produced by the project, where practical. [warnings_strict]

    The tool used doesn't really have that feature. At least it is invoked with the -l flag to alert devs to noncormant files.


  • Conocimiento de desarrollo seguro


    The project MUST have at least one primary developer who knows how to design secure software. (See ‘details’ for the exact requirements.) [know_secure_design]

    I have this skillset. I am available on an as-needed basis but am not a primary developer.

    My feeling is that this best practice is unreasonable. A project can't easily add core developers. This project is doing the right thing by adding a security specialist for one-off projects like this one.



    At least one of the project's primary developers MUST know of common kinds of errors that lead to vulnerabilities in this kind of software, as well as at least one method to counter or mitigate each of them. [know_common_errors]

    I have this skillset. I am available on an as-needed basis but am not a primary developer.

    My feeling is that this best practice is unreasonable. A project can't easily add core developers. This project is doing the right thing by adding a security specialist for one-off projects like this one.


  • Use buenas prácticas criptográficas

    Note that some software does not need to use cryptographic mechanisms. If your project produces software that (1) includes, activates, or enables encryption functionality, and (2) might be released from the United States (US) to outside the US or to a non-US-citizen, you may be legally required to take a few extra steps. Typically this just involves sending an email. For more information, see the encryption section of Understanding Open Source Technology & US Export Controls.

    The software produced by the project MUST use, by default, only cryptographic protocols and algorithms that are publicly published and reviewed by experts (if cryptographic protocols and algorithms are used). [crypto_published]

    The project uses MD5, which is publicly published and reviewed by experts. (See below for analysis).



    Si el software producido por el proyecto es una aplicación o una librería, y su propósito principal no es implementar criptografía, entonces DEBE SOLAMENTE invocar un software específicamente diseñado para implementar funciones criptográficas; NO DEBERÍA volver a implementar el suyo. [crypto_call]

    The project is not an application or library.



    All functionality in the software produced by the project that depends on cryptography MUST be implementable using FLOSS. [crypto_floss]

    The MD5 hash can be implemented using FLOSS. It is implemented using Node source code.



    The security mechanisms within the software produced by the project MUST use default keylengths that at least meet the NIST minimum requirements through the year 2030 (as stated in 2012). It MUST be possible to configure the software so that smaller keylengths are completely disabled. [crypto_keylength]

    There are no keys of any length, whether large or small.



    The default security mechanisms within the software produced by the project MUST NOT depend on broken cryptographic algorithms (e.g., MD4, MD5, single DES, RC4, Dual_EC_DRBG), or use cipher modes that are inappropriate to the context, unless they are necessary to implement an interoperable protocol (where the protocol implemented is the most recent version of that standard broadly supported by the network ecosystem, that ecosystem requires the use of such an algorithm or mode, and that ecosystem does not offer any more secure alternative). The documentation MUST describe any relevant security risks and any known mitigations if these broken algorithms or modes are necessary for an interoperable protocol. [crypto_working]

    The software uses MD5, but only for an internal cache used in a file-watcher for babel transpilation. This cache is not a security mechanism.



    The default security mechanisms within the software produced by the project SHOULD NOT depend on cryptographic algorithms or modes with known serious weaknesses (e.g., the SHA-1 cryptographic hash algorithm or the CBC mode in SSH). [crypto_weaknesses]

    The default security mechanisms are the same as any web app - TLS as implemented in the web server and browser.



    The security mechanisms within the software produced by the project SHOULD implement perfect forward secrecy for key agreement protocols so a session key derived from a set of long-term keys cannot be compromised if one of the long-term keys is compromised in the future. [crypto_pfs]

    Key agreement is out of scope for this project.



    If the software produced by the project causes the storing of passwords for authentication of external users, the passwords MUST be stored as iterated hashes with a per-user salt by using a key stretching (iterated) algorithm (e.g., Argon2id, Bcrypt, Scrypt, or PBKDF2). See also OWASP Password Storage Cheat Sheet. [crypto_password_storage]

    No passwords are stored.



    The security mechanisms within the software produced by the project MUST generate all cryptographic keys and nonces using a cryptographically secure random number generator, and MUST NOT do so using generators that are cryptographically insecure. [crypto_random]

    The project does not generate keys or nonces.


  • Entrega garantizada contra ataques de hombre en el medio (MITM)


    The project MUST use a delivery mechanism that counters MITM attacks. Using https or ssh+scp is acceptable. [delivery_mitm]

    The project wrappers AJAX requests, but does not perform them. It is reliant on the underlying protocol of the web host, whether HTTPS or HTTP.

    I don't know whether to consider this unmet given the nature of this project.



    A cryptographic hash (e.g., a sha1sum) MUST NOT be retrieved over http and used without checking for a cryptographic signature. [delivery_unsigned]

    The package does not transmit hashes. It only uses them locally, within the server.


  • Vulnerabilidades públicamente conocidas corregidas


    There MUST be no unpatched vulnerabilities of medium or higher severity that have been publicly known for more than 60 days. [vulnerabilities_fixed_60_days]

    Core developer: "nope, no CVEs or responsible disclosures or anything in the last 6 months"



    Projects SHOULD fix all critical vulnerabilities rapidly after they are reported. [vulnerabilities_critical_fixed]

    No CVEs or responsible disclosures or anything in the last 6 months.


  • Otros problemas de seguridad


    The public repositories MUST NOT leak a valid private credential (e.g., a working password or private key) that is intended to limit public access. [no_leaked_credentials]

    I cloned the repo and ran the Github secret scanner. It didn't find anything.


  • Análisis estático de código


    At least one static code analysis tool (beyond compiler warnings and "safe" language modes) MUST be applied to any proposed major production release of the software before its release, if there is at least one FLOSS tool that implements this criterion in the selected language. [static_analysis]

    CodeQL has been enabled. (As a result of this Best Practices review!)



    It is SUGGESTED that at least one of the static analysis tools used for the static_analysis criterion include rules or approaches to look for common vulnerabilities in the analyzed language or environment. [static_analysis_common_vulnerabilities]

    The project uses CodeQL, which has this feature.



    All medium and higher severity exploitable vulnerabilities discovered with static code analysis MUST be fixed in a timely way after they are confirmed. [static_analysis_fixed]

    Since the use of SAST has just begun as a result of this Best Practices investigation, it's too soon for a timer.



    It is SUGGESTED that static source code analysis occur on every commit or at least daily. [static_analysis_often]

    CodeQL in CI


  • Dynamic code analysis


    It is SUGGESTED that at least one dynamic analysis tool be applied to any proposed major production release of the software before its release. [dynamic_analysis]

    It's not OK that this is unmet. Implementing this is a work item for the future.



    It is SUGGESTED that if the software produced by the project includes software written using a memory-unsafe language (e.g., C or C++), then at least one dynamic tool (e.g., a fuzzer or web application scanner) be routinely used in combination with a mechanism to detect memory safety problems such as buffer overwrites. If the project does not produce software written in a memory-unsafe language, choose "not applicable" (N/A). [dynamic_analysis_unsafe]

    The software uses only HTML, CSS, and Javascript.



    It is SUGGESTED that the project use a configuration for at least some dynamic analysis (such as testing or fuzzing) which enables many assertions. In many cases these assertions should not be enabled in production builds. [dynamic_analysis_enable_assertions]
    1. As I understand assertions, they are a C thing. The project is Javascript.
    2. The project doesn't yet use a DAST tool. There should be an N/A field for this case.


    All medium and higher severity exploitable vulnerabilities discovered with dynamic code analysis MUST be fixed in a timely way after they are confirmed. [dynamic_analysis_fixed]

    The project doesn't yet use a DAST tool.
