Security policy

This policy applies to all repositories in the Axylith organization.

Reporting a vulnerability

If you find a security vulnerability in any Axylith project, please do not open a public issue.

Instead, report it privately through one of these channels:

  • GitHub Security Advisory: preferred. Open a draft advisory at the affected repo's Security tab → "Report a vulnerability".
  • Email: security@axylith.com (PGP key available on request).

Please include:

  • The repository and version affected
  • Steps to reproduce
  • The impact you believe this has
  • Any suggested mitigation

What to expect

  • Within 72 hours: acknowledgment that we received the report
  • Within 7 days: initial assessment of severity and confirmation whether it's reproducible
  • Within 30 days: patch released (for confirmed vulnerabilities) or detailed response explaining why not

Critical issues may move faster.

Disclosure

We coordinate disclosure with reporters. The default is:

  1. Patch ships in a new release
  2. Advisory published with the release notes
  3. Reporter credited (unless they prefer to remain anonymous)
  4. CVE assigned if severity warrants

If a vulnerability is being actively exploited, we may release a patch immediately and publish the advisory at the same time.

What's in scope

  • Code in any public Axylith repository
  • Build pipelines and CI configurations
  • Documentation that, if followed, would compromise security

What's out of scope

  • Social engineering attacks against maintainers
  • Denial of service via expected resource limits (e.g., uploading a 100GB file to a feature designed for documents)
  • Vulnerabilities in third-party services we use (report those upstream)
  • Issues requiring physical access to a developer's machine

Bug bounty

There is currently no formal bug bounty program. Reports that lead to significant security improvements may receive a small token of appreciation (mention in release notes, organization swag if/when we have any). This is not a commitment.

There aren't any published security advisories
