The following versions of basic-open-agent-tools are currently supported with security updates:

This toolkit is designed for AI agent frameworks and includes security considerations specific to agent deployments:

• Path Validation: All file operations validate paths to prevent directory traversal attacks
• Safe Defaults: Operations default to current working directory when no path specified
• Input Sanitization: File content and paths are validated before processing
• No Arbitrary Execution: File operations do not execute content as code

• Input Validation: All data processing functions validate input types and formats
• Size Limits: Functions include safeguards against processing extremely large data sets
• Safe Parsing: JSON, CSV, and other parsers use safe parsing methods
• No Code Execution: Data processing does not evaluate or execute user input as code

• Type Safety: All functions use JSON-serializable types for secure agent integration
• Parameter Validation: Function parameters are validated for type and format
• Error Handling: Consistent error patterns prevent information leakage
• No Network Operations: Core toolkit avoids network operations to prevent SSRF attacks

1. Validate Input: Always validate data before passing to toolkit functions
2. Limit Permissions: Run agents with minimal necessary file system permissions
3. Monitor Usage: Log and monitor agent tool usage in production
4. Sandbox Environment: Consider running agents in sandboxed environments
5. Regular Updates: Keep the toolkit updated to receive security patches
