Projects that follow the best practices below can voluntarily self-certify and show that they've achieved an Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) best practices badge.

If this is your project, please show your badge status on your project page! The badge status looks like this: Badge level for project 7278 is silver Here is how to embed it:

These are the Gold level criteria. You can also view the Passing or Silver level criteria.

        

 Basics 2/5

  • Identification

    Go, Node and Java client API for Hyperledger Fabric v2.4+

  • Prerrequisitos


    El proyecto DEBE lograr una insignia de nivel plata. [achieve_silver]

  • Supervisión del proyecto


    The project MUST have a "bus factor" of 2 or more. (URL required) [bus_factor]

    Two maintainers have broad knowledge of the codebase. Several other significant contributors have a good knowledge. The project is developed with a "clean code" approach with a focus on simplicity, readability and maintainability of the code. Comprehensive unit tests specify behaviour and inform contributors. https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-gateway/blob/main/MAINTAINERS.md



    The project MUST have at least two unassociated significant contributors. (URL required) [contributors_unassociated]

  • Other


    The project MUST include a license statement in each source file. This MAY be done by including the following inside a comment near the beginning of each file: SPDX-License-Identifier: [SPDX license expression for project]. [license_per_file]

  • Repositorio público para el control de versiones de código fuente


    The project's source repository MUST use a common distributed version control software (e.g., git or mercurial). [repo_distributed]

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



    The project MUST clearly identify small tasks that can be performed by new or casual contributors. (URL required) [small_tasks]


    The project MUST require two-factor authentication (2FA) for developers for changing a central repository or accessing sensitive data (such as private vulnerability reports). This 2FA mechanism MAY use mechanisms without cryptographic mechanisms such as SMS, though that is not recommended. [require_2FA]


    The project's two-factor authentication (2FA) SHOULD use cryptographic mechanisms to prevent impersonation. Short Message Service (SMS) based 2FA, by itself, does NOT meet this criterion, since it is not encrypted. [secure_2FA]

  • Coding standards


    The project MUST document its code review requirements, including how code review is conducted, what must be checked, and what is required to be acceptable. (URL required) [code_review_standards]


    The project MUST have at least 50% of all proposed modifications reviewed before release by a person other than the author, to determine if it is a worthwhile modification and free of known issues which would argue against its inclusion [two_person_review]

  • Working build system


    The project MUST have a reproducible build. If no building occurs (e.g., scripting languages where the source code is used directly instead of being compiled), select "not applicable" (N/A). (URL required) [build_reproducible]

  • Automated test suite


    A test suite MUST be invocable in a standard way for that language. (URL required) [test_invocation]

    All tests are invoked using a Makefile, and are executed using standard frameworks for their corresponding language. The test frameworks used are documented in the CONTRIBUTING guide: https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-gateway/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md



    The project MUST implement continuous integration, where new or changed code is frequently integrated into a central code repository and automated tests are run on the result. (URL required) [test_continuous_integration]

    A complete set of automated tests is run on all code submissions before they are accepted: https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-gateway/actions/workflows/pull_request.yml The complete set of tests is run again on integration of code changes to ensure consistency: https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-gateway/actions/workflows/push.yml Additionally, a scheduled build runs on the current repository state to ensure compatibility with external components: https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-gateway/actions/workflows/schedule.yml



    The project MUST have FLOSS automated test suite(s) that provide at least 90% statement coverage if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can measure this criterion in the selected language. [test_statement_coverage90]


    The project MUST have FLOSS automated test suite(s) that provide at least 80% branch coverage if there is at least one FLOSS tool that can measure this criterion in the selected language. [test_branch_coverage80]

  • 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 support secure protocols for all of its network communications, such as SSHv2 or later, TLS1.2 or later (HTTPS), IPsec, SFTP, and SNMPv3. Insecure protocols such as FTP, HTTP, telnet, SSLv3 or earlier, and SSHv1 MUST be disabled by default, and only enabled if the user specifically configures it. If the software produced by the project does not support network communications, select "not applicable" (N/A). [crypto_used_network]

    The project makes use of gRPC connections with TLS authentication supplied by the consuming application. It is the responsibility of the consuming application to configure appropriate authentication settings on the connection.



    The software produced by the project MUST, if it supports or uses TLS, support at least TLS version 1.2. Note that the predecessor of TLS was called SSL. If the software does not use TLS, select "not applicable" (N/A). [crypto_tls12]

    TLS version support is provided by gRPC: https://grpc.io/docs/guides/auth/


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


    The project website, repository (if accessible via the web), and download site (if separate) MUST include key hardening headers with nonpermissive values. (URL required) [hardened_site]

    // X-Content-Type-Options was not set to "nosniff".


  • Otros problemas de seguridad


    The project MUST have performed a security review within the last 5 years. This review MUST consider the security requirements and security boundary. [security_review]


    Hardening mechanisms MUST be used in the software produced by the project so that software defects are less likely to result in security vulnerabilities. (URL required) [hardening]

    Strict compiler options and linting are used to enforce safe data access.

    Warning: URL required, but no URL found.


  • Dynamic code analysis


    The project MUST apply at least one dynamic analysis tool to any proposed major production release of the software produced by the project before its release. [dynamic_analysis]

    Automated test suite with at least 80% branch coverage applied to every code change and on a schedule. Fuzzing is not (yet) carried out.



    The project SHOULD include many run-time assertions in the software it produces and check those assertions during dynamic analysis. [dynamic_analysis_enable_assertions]

    Testing explicitly confirms conditions that would be asserted.
