Reporting a Vulnerability

Do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub Issues.

Instead, use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting:

👉 Report a vulnerability for Linux-Patch-Manager

This allows us to coordinate a fix before public disclosure.

Response Timeline

  • Acknowledgment within 48 hours
  • Initial assessment within 7 days
  • Ongoing updates on remediation progress

Disclosure Policy

We follow coordinated disclosure:

  • We ask for 90 days before public disclosure of a vulnerability
  • Security advisories are published via GitHub Security Advisories
  • We will work with you to determine an appropriate disclosure timeline when a fix requires more time

Security Best Practices

This project is a security tool — we hold ourselves to a high standard:

  • Signed commits: All commits must be signed (SSH signing)
  • CI enforcement: All PRs require passing CI checks (fmt, clippy, test, audit, build)
  • Dependency auditing: cargo audit runs in CI to catch known vulnerabilities

Credit

Contributors who responsibly report vulnerabilities will be credited in the corresponding GitHub Security Advisory.
