PROFILE

Om Patel

Worked on security enhancements for the google-gemini/gemini-cli repository, focusing on access control and file system protection. Delivered an MCP Server Listing Access Control Enhancement that blocked excluded servers regardless of workspace settings, introduced case-insensitive exclusion checks, and consolidated allowed server lists to ensure only authorized servers were accessible. Addressed a path traversal vulnerability in skill management by implementing input validation and path checks during installation and uninstallation, along with comprehensive tests to prevent unauthorized directory access. Utilized TypeScript and applied security best practices and testing methodologies, demonstrating a methodical approach to secure full stack development within a short timeframe.
