oscerd opened a new pull request, #23253: URL: https://github.com/apache/camel/pull/23253
## Context The ASF Security Team (Piotr) asked us to make the project security model more prominent for reporters and to clarify two recurring triage questions so future reports are handled consistently. This PR is the `apache/camel` side; a companion PR against `apache/camel-website` adds a prominent "Security model and report scope" section at the top of https://camel.apache.org/security/ linking the canonical model page. ## Changes **`security-model.adoc` — two triage clarifications folded into the model:** 1. **Camel-prefixed API-component headers** (`CamelFhir.*`, `CamelBox.*`, `CamelOlingo4.*`, `CamelAs2.*`, ...) reaching an API producer from an untrusted source. Documented position: **not always out of scope** — it is *conditional, and the condition is at the inbound consumer, not the API producer*. These prefixes live in the `Camel*` namespace, so the protecting boundary is the inbound consumer's case-insensitive `Camel*` `HeaderFilterStrategy` (the CVE-2025-27636 family mechanism). Added to the *Camel-header / bean-dispatch abuse* in-scope class. 2. **Non-prefixed semantic headers** a component reads (`To`, `Cc` in `camel-mail`, ...). Documented position: one uniform rule — framework auto-filtering is scoped to the internal `Camel*` / `org.apache.camel.*` namespace only; the rest is the route author's responsibility and a per-component documented contract; the inbound-filter class (e.g. CVE-2026-33454) and path-traversal class (e.g. CVE-2018-8041) still apply independently. Added as a *Known limitations* bullet. **`nav.adoc` — discoverability:** the Security and Security Model pages were reachable only by direct link. Added a top-level **Security** group to the user-manual left navigation. ## Notes - Docs-only change; no code, no generated files affected. - The triage positions were reviewed and confirmed with the operator before being written into the model. --- _Claude Code on behalf of Andrea Cosentino_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
