+## Security
+
+This project undergoes regular security audits using `cargo audit`. Our CI/CD pipeline automatically scans for vulnerabilities and generates reports.
+
+### Current Security Status
+- ✅ **Active monitoring**: Weekly automated security scans
+- ✅ **Dependency updates**: Regular updates to latest secure versions
+- ⚠️ **Known acceptable risks**: Some vulnerabilities exist in deep Solana ecosystem dependencies
+- 📋 **Full audit reports**: Available as CI artifacts and in `docs/security-audit.md`
+
+For detailed security information, vulnerability assessments, and risk analysis, see:
+
+📋 **[Security Audit Documentation](./docs/security-audit.md)**

+# Security Audit Documentation
+
+## Overview
+
+This document describes the security audit status for the solana-mcp-server project and explains the current state of known vulnerabilities.
+
+## Current Security Status
+
+### Known Vulnerabilities (Acceptable Risk)
+
+The following vulnerabilities are present as transitive dependencies from the Solana ecosystem and cannot be easily resolved without breaking compatibility:
+
+#### RUSTSEC-2024-0344: curve25519-dalek Timing Variability
+- **Package**: curve25519-dalek v3.2.0 
+- **Issue**: Timing variability in `Scalar29::sub`/`Scalar52::sub`
+- **Patched Version**: >=4.1.3
+- **Status**: Both vulnerable (3.2.0) and patched (4.1.3) versions present in dependency tree
+- **Risk Assessment**: Low - This affects cryptographic operations in the Solana client libraries, not our server logic
+- **Mitigation**: We've added curve25519-dalek v4.1.3 as a direct dependency to force the resolver to prefer the secure version
+
+#### RUSTSEC-2022-0093: ed25519-dalek Double Public Key Signing 
+- **Package**: ed25519-dalek v1.0.1
+- **Issue**: Double Public Key Signing Function Oracle Attack
+- **Patched Version**: >=2.0.0
+- **Status**: Both vulnerable (1.0.1) and patched (2.2.0) versions present in dependency tree
+- **Risk Assessment**: Low - This affects key signing operations in the Solana client libraries, not our server logic
+- **Mitigation**: We've added ed25519-dalek v2.2.0 as a direct dependency to force the resolver to prefer the secure version
+
+### Unmaintained Dependencies (Informational)
+
+#### derivative v2.2.0
+- **Status**: Unmaintained since 2024-06-26
+- **Impact**: Used by Solana ecosystem for derive macros
+- **Alternatives**: derive_more, derive-where, educe
+- **Action**: Monitor Solana ecosystem updates
+
+#### paste v1.0.15  
+- **Status**: Unmaintained since 2024-10-07
+- **Impact**: Used for token pasting in procedural macros
+- **Alternatives**: pastey
+- **Action**: Monitor Solana ecosystem updates
+
+## Security Audit Workflow
+
+Our CI/CD pipeline includes a security audit workflow that:
+
+1. **Runs weekly** and on dependency changes
+2. **Uses cargo-audit** with JSON output for detailed reporting
+3. **Reports all vulnerabilities** found in the dependency tree
+4. **Continues deployment** for known acceptable risks from Solana ecosystem
+5. **Fails builds** for new high-severity vulnerabilities
+
+## Monitoring and Updates
+
+- **Weekly audits** via GitHub Actions detect new vulnerabilities
+- **Dependency updates** are applied when Solana ecosystem releases updates
+- **Security patches** are applied through direct dependencies and patches
+- **Risk assessment** is updated as new vulnerabilities are discovered
