When a future release is published, this table may be updated to describe which release lines continue to receive security fixes.
Please report security vulnerabilities by opening public GitHub issue or PR.
Include:
- A clear description of the vulnerability.
- Steps to reproduce the issue.
- The affected FastStack version or commit.
- The operating system and Python version used.
- Whether the issue can lead to code execution, file deletion, data exposure, unsafe subprocess execution, or other user impact.
- Any proof-of-concept files or commands needed to reproduce the issue.
I will try to acknowledge valid vulnerability reports within 7 days.
If the vulnerability is accepted, I will work on a fix and may ask for additional reproduction details. Security fixes may be applied to supported versions when practical.
If the report is declined, I will explain why, for example if the behavior is not security-sensitive, cannot be reproduced, or depends on unsupported usage.
Once a fix is available, the vulnerability will be documented in release notes.
Security issues may include, but are not limited to:
- Unsafe handling of external executable paths.
- Unsafe subprocess invocation.
- File deletion or recycle-bin behavior that could affect unintended files.
- Loading crafted image, metadata, sidecar, or configuration files in a way that causes code execution, data loss, or disclosure.
General bugs, crashes, UI problems, and performance issues should be reported as GitHub issues.
