SECURITY.md

Security policy

Forkyard runs Git on your machine and handles credentials, so security reports are taken seriously.

Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue. Use GitHub's private reporting instead: Report a vulnerability.

Include what you found, how to reproduce it and which version you used. You will get an answer within a few days. Once a fix is released, the advisory is published and you are credited if you want.

Supported versions

Only the latest release receives security fixes.

What Forkyard does to protect you

  • Tokens, passwords and SSH passphrases are stored only in the operating system's keychain.
  • Repositories whose configuration or hooks would run programs stay locked until you trust them.
  • Everything written to logs, errors or events is scrubbed of secrets.
  • No telemetry, no accounts, no server. Network access happens only for Git remotes, the GitHub/GitLab APIs you connect, author avatars from GitHub (can be turned off in Settings) and a daily update check to api.github.com that sends nothing but the app version (can be turned off in Settings › About).

There aren't any published security advisories
