Responsible Disclosure Guidelines

We do our best to follow responsible disclosure practices:

  • Credit: We will acknowledge your discovery in security release notes (unless you prefer anonymity)
  • Coordination: We will work with you to coordinate the disclosure and release timeline based on our capacity to resolve the issue
  • Communication: We aim to remain communicative and keep your ticket updated with the status so you know what to expect
  • No Public Issues: Please avoid creating public GitHub issues pull requests, branches, or forks for developing fixes to security vulnerabilities unless told otherwise. All of these can leak the existence of the vulnerability before it is fully fixed.
