A Magento community sourced security pre-flight checklist.

magento-security-checklist's Issues

Scripts to add to JIRA, Trello, Pivotal Tracker Asana etc

This list would only be useful if it is actually implemented. The best way to get developers to do a thing is to put it into the bug tracker. They already have a pattern of picking up things from that tool and completing them.

We should build a simple to use script to inject all these tasks from the main list into a project in each popular task/bug tracker software used by Magento agencies.

I am not sure how this will be implemented yet, or if it will require modifying the main list in a manner that is easier to read from a script or not. Those are details that still need to be hashed out.

publicly accessible .user.ini

Server settings
do you have publicly accessible '.user.ini' over HTTP / HTTPS.
are you able to download https://www.yoursite.com/pub/.user.ini ?

if yes that needs to be protected

Notes from JD from community slack to integrate

`Nothing about content security policy on there. I think that’s a big one. Most important place to have your CSP locked down is on the checkout page.

Recommendation - use a read only filesystem. Use Docker and checksum your images.
Firewall your entire site and make sure it’s not doing any outbound connections (unless you know what those are).
Secure your backups! You don’t need access to the database if you take your backups and put them in a public S3 bucket.
Your backups should have the same security as root access to your database. They should also be encrypted so they can’t just be transferred around.
Be careful with any PII. Don’t be lazy and make a copy of your production database for devs to put on insecure machines (their laptops) that they take on the train, airports, etc. Make a development database. Use mocks. Use test data.
That brings me to the next point - your whole system is completely insecure if the person with all of the keys is running on an insecure computer. Mandate that anyone with production access has an up-to-date anti-virus program, they are trained in how to detect phishing attacks, they have secure passwords/keys, their browsers are up-to-date and all of the plugins on that are up-to-date.`
