| 4.x.x | ❌ |
| < 4.0 | ❌ |
DO NOT create a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities. All security bugs should be reported privately to ensure the safety of our users.
If you're using GitHub, you can report vulnerabilities directly through our private reporting system:
- Go to the Security tab of this repository
- Click "Report a vulnerability"
- Fill out the form with your findings
This method integrates with GitHub's security advisory system and allows for coordinated disclosure.
For more complex reports or if you prefer email communication:
Email: security+sebs@2xs.org
Please include the following information in your report:
- Vulnerability Type: What kind of security issue (e.g., code injection, XSS, prototype pollution)
- Affected Component: Which part of es6-fuzz is affected (e.g., specific fuzzifier, logic operations)
- Impact Assessment: Potential impact on applications using es6-fuzz
- Reproduction Steps: Clear, step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
- Proof of Concept: Working example demonstrating the vulnerability
- Affected Versions: Which versions of es6-fuzz are vulnerable
- Suggested Fix: Any ideas for mitigation or fixes (optional but appreciated)
- Acknowledgement: We will acknowledge receipt of your report within 48 hours
- Initial Assessment: Our team will investigate and provide an initial assessment within 5 business days
- Regular Updates: We will provide updates on our progress every 7 days until resolution
- Fix Development: We aim to develop and test fixes within 60 days for critical vulnerabilities, 90 days for others
- Coordinated Disclosure: We will work with you to coordinate public disclosure timing
- Security Advisory: For confirmed vulnerabilities, we will publish a GitHub Security Advisory
- Recognition: We will publicly credit you in the security advisory and release notes, unless you prefer to remain anonymous
This security policy applies to the core es6-fuzz library and its official distribution channels.
- Core Library: All code in the main es6-fuzz repository
- NPM Package: The official
es6-fuzzpackage on npmjs.com - Supported Versions: Currently supported versions listed above
- Dependencies: Security issues in our direct dependencies that affect es6-fuzz
- Code Injection: Ability to execute arbitrary code through fuzzy logic inputs
- Prototype Pollution: Manipulation of JavaScript object prototypes
- Denial of Service: Inputs that cause excessive resource consumption
- Logic Bypass: Ways to circumvent intended fuzzy logic behavior
- Supply Chain: Compromised dependencies or build process issues
The following are considered out of scope for this security policy:
- Theoretical Vulnerabilities: Issues without practical exploitation scenarios
- Social Engineering: Attacks targeting project maintainers or users
- Physical Access: Attacks requiring physical access to systems
- Brute Force: Attacks requiring excessive computational resources
- Third-Party Applications: Vulnerabilities in applications that use es6-fuzz (unless caused by es6-fuzz itself)
- Development Dependencies: Issues in devDependencies that don't affect the published package
- Documentation: Typos or errors in documentation that don't create security risks
We consider security research and vulnerability disclosure activities conducted under this policy to be authorized and welcome. We will not pursue civil or criminal action, or send a cease and desist, against researchers who:
- Act in good faith and adhere to this policy
- Make a reasonable effort to avoid privacy violations and service disruption
- Do not access or modify data belonging to others
- Report vulnerabilities promptly and work with us on coordinated disclosure
We consider your activities to be a benefit to our community and will work with you to understand and resolve issues quickly.
While we do not currently offer a monetary bug bounty program, we deeply value the work of security researchers. We are happy to provide:
- Public Recognition: Credit in our security advisories and release notes
- GitHub Security Advisory: Co-author credit on published security advisories
- Community Recognition: Mention in our project documentation and website
- Direct Communication: Access to our development team for technical discussions
Please note that es6-fuzz is explicitly marked as an experimental library. While we take security seriously, users should be aware that:
- The API may change between versions
- Thorough security review may be limited due to the experimental status
- Production use should include additional security considerations
As a JavaScript library, es6-fuzz may be particularly susceptible to:
- Input Validation Issues: Malformed inputs to fuzzy logic functions
- Prototype Pollution: Manipulation of JavaScript object prototypes
- Type Confusion: Unexpected behavior with different JavaScript types
- Performance Issues: Inputs that cause excessive computation
When reporting vulnerabilities, please consider:
- Client-Side Usage: How the vulnerability affects browser-based applications
- Server-Side Usage: Impact on Node.js applications using es6-fuzz
- Data Flow: How untrusted data might reach vulnerable code paths
This project uses GitHub's Security Advisory system for coordinated vulnerability disclosure. When you report a vulnerability:
- Draft Advisory: We'll create a draft security advisory for collaboration
- Private Discussion: We can discuss the vulnerability privately within the advisory
- CVE Assignment: GitHub can assign CVE numbers for significant vulnerabilities
- Coordinated Publication: We'll coordinate the public disclosure timing with you
- Dependabot Alerts: Published advisories will trigger alerts for downstream users
If you have questions about this policy or need clarification on any aspect of our security reporting process, please contact us at security+sebs@2xs.org.
This security policy may be updated from time to time. We will announce significant changes through our usual communication channels (GitHub releases, npm package updates).
