Manfath runs lsof and sends SIGTERM / SIGKILL to processes you
own. If you find a way to escalate privileges, escape the hardened
runtime, or coerce the app into killing or exposing a process the
running user shouldn't be able to touch — please report it
privately rather than opening a public issue.
Open a GitHub Security Advisory.
I'll acknowledge within 72 hours, fix as quickly as feasible, and credit you in the release notes (unless you prefer not).
Only the latest released version receives security fixes. Cut releases
land via Homebrew (brew upgrade --cask manfath).
- Bugs in third-party tools Manfath calls out to (
lsof,kill,cloudflared,ngrok). Report those upstream. - Issues that require an attacker to already have local code execution
as your user account —
lsofandkillare the same primitives any local process can use.
