Reporting a Vulnerability

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

Report vulnerabilities privately using a GitHub private security advisory. This keeps the details confidential while we work on a fix.

What to include

  • A clear description of the vulnerability
  • The affected component(s) and version(s)
  • Steps to reproduce or a proof-of-concept (if available)
  • Potential impact assessment

Response

This is a volunteer-maintained open-source project. We will do our best to respond and investigate reports in a timely manner, but cannot commit to specific response times.

We follow coordinated disclosure: we will work with you to agree on a disclosure timeline before publishing details.


Scope

The following are considered in scope as security issues:

  • Authentication or authorisation bypass
  • Arbitrary code execution via untrusted input
  • Sensitive data exposure (credentials, tokens, private data)
  • Dependency vulnerabilities with a clear exploit path in reqstool

The following are out of scope and should be filed as regular bugs:

  • Issues requiring physical access to the machine
  • Denial-of-service via resource exhaustion with no exploit
  • Issues in development/test tooling with no production impact
  • General software bugs without a security impact

Disclosure Credits

We are happy to credit researchers who responsibly disclose vulnerabilities, unless they prefer to remain anonymous.
