This document outlines how to responsibly report security vulnerabilities and what you can expect in return.


🧠 Supported Versions

Only actively maintained versions of this project receive security updates.

🚨 Reporting a Vulnerability

If you discover a security vulnerability, do not open a public issue.
Instead, please report it responsibly by following the steps below:

  1. Email the maintainers:
    📧 viratiaki53@gmail.com

  2. Include as much detail as possible:

    • Description of the vulnerability
    • Steps to reproduce
    • Potential impact and affected versions
    • Suggested fixes (if any)
  3. You will receive an acknowledgment within 48 hours (may vary) and a full response within 5–7 days (may vary).

If the vulnerability is confirmed, we will:

  • Prepare a fix or mitigation plan
  • Credit you (if desired)
  • Release an update with security notes in the changelog

🧩 Security Best Practices

To help maintain a secure project environment:

  • Keep dependencies updated (npm audit, pip audit, etc.)
  • Never commit credentials or API keys
  • Use .env for secrets and exclude it via .gitignore
  • Regularly review permission scopes in APIs and workflows
  • Use HTTPS for all network communications

🧰 Responsible Disclosure

We appreciate responsible disclosure and request that you:

  • Do not exploit vulnerabilities for any reason
  • Avoid public discussion until a patch is released
  • Coordinate directly with maintainers for fixes
