How to report a vulnerability

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.

Preferred order:

  1. Use GitHub private vulnerability reporting if it is enabled for this repository
  2. If private reporting is unavailable, contact the maintainer privately through GitHub instead of posting details publicly

What to include

Please include as much of the following as possible:

  • affected version or commit
  • vulnerability type and impact
  • reproduction steps or proof of concept
  • whether the issue can leak secrets, bypass command controls, or affect host verification
  • any suggested mitigation or fix

Response targets

  • initial acknowledgement: within 72 hours when possible
  • triage update: within 7 days when possible
  • fix timeline: depends on severity and reproducibility

In scope examples

  • command policy bypasses
  • secret exposure in logs or tool output
  • unsafe host verification behavior
  • authentication flaws
  • sandbox or boundary escape behavior in server tooling

Out of scope examples

  • vulnerabilities in a user's own SSH server configuration
  • insecure credentials stored by a user outside this repository
  • already-public information without a concrete project impact
