Do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.
Preferred: Use the "Report a vulnerability" button on the Security tab.
Alternative: Email bugs@gnu.foo. Reports are acknowledged within 72 hours; fixes within 30 days depending on severity.
In scope:
- Permission check logic that produces incorrect results (false-safe or false-deny) for a real filesystem state
- Capability read or installation bugs that could misrepresent or incorrectly grant/drop file capabilities
- Input validation bypasses in subject or path parsing
- LSM (SELinux/AppArmor) query logic that returns incorrect enforcement state
- Dependency vulnerabilities with a realistic attack path
Out of scope: issues with no security impact, theoretical bugs without a proof of concept, privilege requirements that are documented and intentional (e.g. sudo needed for full gather).
