How to contribute to the OpenStack Security SIG
Initial Steps for Everyone
- Join the SIG launchpad group: https://launchpad.net/~openstack-ossg
- Join the OpenStack Security SIG mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-sigs
- Introduce yourself at the weekly Security SIG meeting on IRC: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/OpenStackSecurity
- Read the sections below for specific ways that someone with your skills can help improve the security of OpenStack.
Developers, New to OpenStack
- Set yourself up to contribute to OpenStack (see the “If you’re a developer” section): https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/How_To_Contribute
- Review code reviews tagged as SecurityImpact
- Notifications come to the openstack-security mailing list
- https://review.openstack.org/#/q/message:SecurityImpact+is:open,n,z
- Identify open bugs that you can work on to learn a project (we recommend starting with just one project before branching out too much)
- Compute (Nova): https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova
- Object Storage (Swift): https://bugs.launchpad.net/swift/
- Image Service (Glance): https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance
- Identity (Keystone): https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone
- Dashboard (Horizon): https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon
- Networking (Neutron): https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron
- Block Storage (Cinder): https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder
- Common Code (Oslo): https://bugs.launchpad.net/oslo
- Review code to learn a project and find security issues (we recommend starting with just one project before branching out too much)
- Compute (Nova): https://github.com/openstack/nova
- Object Storage (Swift): https://github.com/openstack/swift
- Image Service (Glance): https://github.com/openstack/glance

- Block Storage (Cinder): https://github.com/openstack/cinder
- Common Code (Oslo): https://github.com/openstack/oslo-incubator
Developers, Experienced with OpenStack
- Security leadership on specific OpenStack project
- SIG people with both a strong security background and a strong OpenStack background to work as core developers on projects. These people would help serve as the link between OSSG and the OpenStack project by:
- Identifying areas where the code should be improved
- Writing blueprints for security features related to that project
- Ensuring relevant reviews are marked with SecurityImpact tags
- Leveraging OSSG members to help solve security problems
- Become a trusted security resource among the core developers
- This is a position that one grows into by demonstrating good work over time. This is not something where you are simply appointed. If you are interested, OSSG can help get you started.
- Identify security-relevant code reviews and tag as SecurityImpact
- Review code reviews tagged as SecurityImpact
- Notifications come to the openstack-security mailing list
- https://review.openstack.org/#/q/message:SecurityImpact+is:open,n,z
- Review blueprints
- Compute (Nova): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova
- Object Storage (Swift): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/swift
- Image Service (Glance): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance
- Identity (Keystone): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/keystone
- Dashboard (Horizon): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/horizon
- Networking (Neutron): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron
- Block Storage (Cinder): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder
- Common Code (Oslo): https://blueprints.launchpad.net/oslo
- Write security-relevant blueprints
Security Architects

- Review blueprints (see links in developer section above)
- Write security-relevant blueprints
Writers / Editors
- Initial setup instructions can be found at the Documentation First Timer's How To page: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HowTo/FirstTimers
- Once those steps are complete, you can help review / edit the OpenStack Security Guide
- Webpage: http://docs.openstack.org/sec/
- DocBook Source: https://github.com/openstack/security-doc/tree/master/security-guide
- List of Enhancements / Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack/+bugs?field.tag=sec-guide
- Open a new Enhancement / Bug: File a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+filebug and tag it with "sec-guide". Option for tags is available under "Extra options".
- Review / edit OSSNs
QA / Automation / Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)
- Add security testing to current test suites
- Add security tests to OS projects
- Learn to identify and file Security Bugs
- Identify open bugs and/or report security bugs that you can work on to learn a project (we recommend starting with just one project before branching out too much)
- Compute (Nova): https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova
- Object Storage (Swift): https://bugs.launchpad.net/swift/
- Image Service (Glance): https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance
- Identity (Keystone): https://bugs.launchpad.net/keystone
