Security: HansTanzi/RestGuard

SECURITY.md

Security policy

Supported versions

Only the latest release gets security fixes. Please update before reporting.

Reporting a vulnerability

Please don't open a public issue for security problems.

Report it privately through GitHub instead: go to the Security tab and click Report a vulnerability (direct link). Only the maintainer can see the report.

Please include:

  • What the problem is and what an attacker could do with it
  • Steps to reproduce, or a proof of concept
  • Your OS and RestGuard version

You'll get a reply within 7 days. Once a fix is released, the advisory is published, with credit to you if you'd like.

Scope

Things that are in scope include, for example:

  • Release files that don't match their source, SHA256SUMS.txt or build provenance attestation
  • Problems in the Scoop bucket, Homebrew tap, APT repository or WinGet manifest that could deliver something other than the official build
  • The ntfy phone notification leaking more than the notification text, or sending to a server other than the configured one
  • A local process abusing RestGuard to gain privileges it wouldn't otherwise have

Ways to get around a break (e.g. Force Quit on macOS, or ending the process in Task Manager) are expected and not security issues; see Platform limitations. Feel free to open a normal issue if you think one should be blocked.

There aren't any published security advisories
