Reporting a vulnerability

Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting on this repository (Security → Report a vulnerability). That gives us a confidential thread and you a place to be credited, without anything becoming public before there is a fix.

Please do not open a public issue for a security problem.

What to expect: an acknowledgement within a week, an assessment with our view of severity, and a fix or an explanation of why we disagree. If you want a CVE we will request one. We will credit you unless you would rather we did not.

We are a small project and cannot promise a schedule beyond that. If we go quiet on you, publish - an unresponsive maintainer is not a reason to sit on a finding.

Scope

In scope: anything that lets someone drive the target without the key; anything that leaks the key; a defect in the authentication path, the look-before-act rule, or the stuck-key watchdog; a way to make the daemon serve without a key; the installer trusting something it should not.

Out of scope, because it is the design: the daemon types on the target, and anyone holding the key can therefore do anything the target's logged-in account can do. That is what the tool is. See the Security section of the README for where the boundary actually sits - the permissions of the account being typed into, not this software.

Also out of scope here: vulnerabilities in a board's own firmware or web UI. Those belong to that board's vendor. We are happy to help you route a report if you are not sure where to send it.
