Vulnerability Disclosure Policy

We commit to working with security researchers and the community to verify and address any potential vulnerabilities. We ask that the following guidelines be followed to ensure an effective resolution:

  1. Non-Disclosure: Do not disclose the vulnerability publicly until we have had a reasonable chance to fix it. We will inform you when the issue is resolved.
  2. Cooperation: We may need additional information from you to effectively address the issue. Please cooperate with us during this process.
