What the Data for This Category Looks Like
This category focuses on public disclosure and remediation of vulnerabilities in open source projects, distinct from supply chain security and open source dependency governance. Data is generated for individual security vulnerability events. Sources include private vulnerability reports, code repositories, CVE numbering bodies, and official release channels. Daily associated documents include security advisories, vulnerability reports, fix patches, and CVE submission materials. Each event includes a structured set of fields: interaction timestamps, operator identifiers, conversation content, associated CVE numbers, code change hashes, patch versions, and more. Data is updated once per event. It is generated and updated only during the full disclosure-to-remediation lifecycle of a vulnerability. No periodic bulk updates occur.
Constraints Imposed on Conversation Logs and Auditing
Private vulnerability report sources require conversation logs to use encrypted storage. Only authorized personnel may access logs to prevent sensitive information leaks. The event-based update model requires audit logs to be isolated by vulnerability ID. This prevents cross-event conversation data interference, enabling precise post-mortems. Daily documents include CVE numbers and code change records. This requires conversation logs to associate with corresponding fields, for quick tracing to specific vulnerability remediation steps. The sensitivity of security vulnerabilities requires audit operations to leave a full, unalterable trail. Support for multi-dimensional retrieval by operator, time, and vulnerability ID is needed to meet compliance audit requirements. Additionally, total data volume for a single event’s full lifecycle is limited. Overprovisioning storage is unnecessary, but core fields must not be missing.
Configuration Settings
This configuration guide is written for FastGPT v4.17.0.
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
chatId | Unique identifier bound to the vulnerability ID | Ensures precise association between conversation logs for each vulnerability event and its corresponding CVE number and vulnerability report, preventing cross-event data confusion |
responseChatItemId | Incremental serial number generated per interaction node | Enables quick location of the full communication chain for a single vulnerability, facilitating review of individual interaction details during post-mortems |
detail | Stores complete interaction content, including operator, timestamp, and associated code change hash | Meets full-chain tracing requirements for security audits, and complies with retention standards for private vulnerability data |
| Conversation log retention period | 180–365 days | Aligns with post-disclosure audit cycles from CVE numbering bodies, and meets post-mortem needs of project security response teams |
| Log storage quota | 500 MB / vulnerability event | Matches total storage volume of documents, conversations, and patches for a single vulnerability event, avoiding resource waste |
| Audit log access permissions | Visible only to project security response team members | Protects the sensitivity of private vulnerability reports, and complies with security disclosure compliance requirements |
Three Common Configuration Mistakes
- Symptom: Shared vulnerability troubleshooting conversation links display a permission denied error, and normal access is not possible. Cause:
chatIdis not bound to share permissions, or the access whitelist for private conversations is not configured. This allows unauthorized users to attempt accessing sensitive logs. - Symptom: Historical vulnerability conversation log files cannot be retrieved after Docker deployment. Cause: The persistent storage path corresponding to the
detailparameter is not specified. Temporary logs are deleted when the container is destroyed, and data retention is not implemented. - Symptom: Vulnerability communication conversations saved without login are lost after restarting or refreshing the page. Cause: The conversation log association identifier for non-login users is not configured. This leaves session data without a bound storage target, preventing persistent storage.
How to Verify Successful Configuration
- Submit a test vulnerability report. After generating a complete communication conversation, retrieve the corresponding log using
chatId. Confirm that the content is complete and correctly associated with the vulnerability ID and CVE number. - Attempt to access conversation logs using an unauthorized account. Confirm that the system displays a permission denied prompt, verifying that access control configurations are active.
- Restart the Docker container, then retrieve historical conversation logs again. Confirm that data is not lost, verifying that persistent storage configurations are correct.
- View the audit log list. Confirm that all vulnerability communication records including operator, timestamp, and interaction content are fully saved. Verify that the
detailparameter configuration is active.
