Security: Samsarix Policy Engine. Include affected versions, impact, reproduction steps, and any
suggested remediation. Do not publish exploit details, credentials, private policy content, or
personal data in a public issue. Samsarix LLC does not currently promise a fixed response SLA, but
will acknowledge actionable reports through the same private channel.
Samsarix Policy Engine accepts untrusted JSON policy and request documents and returns a decision. It does not authenticate principals, authorize access to the policy file itself, sign policies, perform the requested action, or guarantee that its caller enforces the result. The embedding application owns those controls.
The parser rejects duplicate object keys, non-finite numbers, unknown fields, malformed conditions,
and oversized or deeply nested documents. Evaluation supports only exact comparisons, bounded
numeric comparisons, list membership, dotted object paths, and a bounded * wildcard matcher.
It does not evaluate code, regex, templates, YAML tags, shell commands, or network data.
Decision explanations include identifiers and mismatch field names, not request context values. Callers should still treat decisions and policy identifiers as potentially sensitive and apply their own retention and access controls.
- Keep
defaultset todenyunless fail-open behavior is an explicit, reviewed requirement. - Load policies from an authenticated, integrity-protected source in production.
- Evaluate immediately before the protected action and enforce every denial.
- Do not use a decision digest as a digital signature.
- Pin and review the package artifact used in a deployed system.
- Re-run representative allow and deny fixtures whenever a policy changes.
