Reporting a Vulnerability

We take the security of our Linux shell scripts seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability, please follow these steps:

🚨 For Critical Security Issues:

  • DO NOT create a public GitHub issue
  • Send an email to: [shubhadeep010@.gmailcom]
  • Include "SECURITY" in the subject line

📋 Include in Your Report:

  • Description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce the issue
  • Potential impact assessment
  • Suggested fix (if you have one)
  • Your contact information for follow-up

⏱️ Response Timeline:

  • Initial Response: Within 48-72 hours
  • Status Update: Within 7 days
  • Fix Timeline: 30 days (depending on severity)

🛡️ Security Best Practices for Users:

  1. Always review scripts before executing them
  2. Run scripts in isolated environments first
  3. Use proper file permissions (avoid 777)
  4. Keep your system updated
  5. Don't run scripts as root unless necessary

🔍 Common Security Considerations:

  • Input validation - Our scripts include input sanitization
  • Path traversal - We use absolute paths where possible
  • Command injection - Variables are properly quoted
  • File permissions - Scripts set appropriate permissions
