Security Policy

Reporting a Vulnerability

The Luminous Dynamics team takes security vulnerabilities seriously. We appreciate your efforts to responsibly disclose your findings and will make every effort to acknowledge your contributions.

How to Report

Please DO NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

Instead, please report them via email to:

tristan.stoltz@evolvingresonantcocreationism.com

Include the following information in your report:

  • Type of vulnerability (e.g., SQL injection, XSS, authentication bypass)
  • Location - Full paths of affected source files
  • Steps to reproduce - Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
  • Proof of concept - Code or commands demonstrating the vulnerability
  • Impact - What an attacker could achieve by exploiting this vulnerability
  • Suggested fix (optional) - If you have ideas on how to fix it

What to Expect

  1. Acknowledgment - We will acknowledge receipt of your report within 48 hours
  2. Assessment - We will assess the vulnerability and determine its severity
  3. Communication - We will keep you informed of our progress
  4. Fix - We will develop and test a fix
  5. Release - We will release the fix and publish a security advisory
  6. Credit - We will credit you in the security advisory (unless you prefer anonymity)

Response Timeline

  • Initial response: Within 48 hours
  • Status update: Within 7 days
  • Fix timeline: Depends on severity
    • Critical: Within 7 days
    • High: Within 14 days
    • Medium: Within 30 days
    • Low: Within 90 days

Security Update Process

  1. Discovery - Vulnerability is reported or discovered
  2. Triage - Team assesses severity and impact
  3. Development - Fix is developed in a private branch
  4. Testing - Fix is thoroughly tested
  5. Release - Fix is released with a new version
  6. Advisory - Security advisory is published on GitHub
  7. Notification - Users are notified through release notes

Security Best Practices

For Users

  • Keep software updated - Always use the latest version
  • Use secure connections - Always use HTTPS
  • Protect credentials - Never commit secrets to repositories
  • Review dependencies - Regularly audit third-party dependencies

For Contributors

  • No hardcoded secrets - Use environment variables or secret managers
  • Input validation - Validate and sanitize all user input
  • Dependency scanning - Check for known vulnerabilities in dependencies
  • Code review - All changes must be reviewed before merging
  • Least privilege - Request only necessary permissions

Scope

This security policy applies to:

  • All repositories in the Luminous-Dynamics GitHub organization
  • All official releases and distributions
  • The main monorepo at luminous-dynamics/luminous-dynamics
  • All standalone project repositories

Out of Scope

The following are NOT covered by this policy:

  • Third-party services we integrate with
  • User-deployed instances with custom modifications
  • Vulnerabilities in dependencies (report these to the dependency maintainers)
  • Social engineering attacks
  • Physical security
  • Denial of service attacks

Bug Bounty

We currently do not have a formal bug bounty program. However, we deeply appreciate security researchers who take the time to report vulnerabilities responsibly. We will:

  • Acknowledge your contribution publicly (with your permission)
  • Provide a letter of recognition
  • Include you in our security hall of fame

Security Contacts

Primary Contact: tristan.stoltz@evolvingresonantcocreationism.com

For general security questions that are not vulnerability reports, you may also open a GitHub Discussion in the relevant repository.

PGP Key

If you need to encrypt sensitive information, please request our PGP public key via email.

Acknowledgments

We would like to thank the following security researchers for their responsible disclosures:

This list will be updated as we receive and resolve security reports.


Thank you for helping keep Luminous Dynamics and our users safe!
