## Summary
This PR adds an initial draft of a project-level security
threat-model document (`draft-THREAT-MODEL.md`) so that automated
security scanners running against this repository have a
maintainer-facing reference for which classes of findings are
in-scope vs. out-of-scope for the project.
The document follows the rubric format used by several other ASF
projects piloting improved security-model discoverability for
agentic scanners. Every claim carries a provenance tag:
- *(documented)* — paraphrased from public artefacts (this repo or
the project website), cited inline.
- *(inferred)* — synthesised from code structure or domain
knowledge; the PMC has not confirmed.
- *(maintainer)* — confirmed by a CloudStack PMC member in response
to this draft. (Zero in this initial draft.)
Draft stats:
- ~88 documented claims
- ~64 inferred claims (each maps to a §14 question)
- 38 open questions for maintainers in §14
§14 is the highest-leverage section: answering each question
either promotes one *(inferred)* tag to *(maintainer)* or corrects
the underlying claim.
## Why "draft-" prefix?
The file is named `draft-THREAT-MODEL.md` rather than
`SECURITY-THREAT-MODEL.md` because **this is a proposal for the
PMC to review — please correct, reject, or discuss as needed.**
Once the PMC ratifies (or substantially edits) the content, the
file can be renamed in a follow-up PR and a discoverability
scaffold (`AGENTS.md` → `SECURITY.md` → the model) added so
scanners can mechanically follow the chain.
## What this is, and what it is not
This is **not** a security audit. It is a working triage document
— the reference a triager holds against an inbound report to
decide whether the report is about a CloudStack vulnerability or
about caller misuse / operator misconfiguration / an out-of-scope
concern.
The draft was generated by an automated agentic security scan
being piloted by the ASF Security team; the discoverability work
is independent of any specific scan run.
## How to review
1. §14 first. Each answer either confirms one *(inferred)* tag or
replaces the inferred claim with the correct one.
2. After that, please skim §3 (out-of-scope) and §13 (triage
dispositions) — those govern how a vulnerability report would
be triaged.
Reply edits / corrections inline on the PR, or to the original
`[email protected]` thread, whichever fits the PMC's workflow.
