Reporting a Vulnerability

Please report security vulnerabilities privately — do not open a public GitHub issue for them.

Preferred channel: use GitHub's Private vulnerability reporting for this repository (the Report a vulnerability button under the Security tab). If that is unavailable, contact the maintainer directly at rcheley@gmail.com.

Please include:

  • A description of the vulnerability and its impact.
  • Steps to reproduce (or a proof of concept).
  • The affected version (yt --version) and platform.

What to expect

  • Acknowledgement: within 7 days of your report.
  • Assessment & fix: we aim to have a fix or mitigation plan for confirmed issues within 30 days, prioritized by severity.
  • Coordinated disclosure: we will agree a disclosure timeline with you and credit you in the release notes unless you prefer to remain anonymous.

Supported Versions

Security fixes are applied to the latest released version. Please upgrade to the latest version before reporting, in case the issue is already resolved.

Scope

YouTrack CLI is a single-user, local command-line tool. In-scope concerns include handling of remote/network-influenced input (e.g. YouTrack API responses), transport security of credentials, and command execution. Threats that require another malicious local user on the same machine (e.g. local file permissions) are outside the tool's threat model.
