Security Notice

What?

This is the security notice for all Textstat repositories. The notice explains how vulnerabilities should be reported to Textstat.

Reporting a Vulnerability

If you’ve found a vulnerability, we would like to know so we can fix it.

You can report a vulnerability to Textstat via email: alxwrd@googlemail.com.

When reporting a vulnerability to us, please include:

  • the website, page or repository where the vulnerability can be observed
  • a brief description of the vulnerability
  • details of the steps we need to take to reproduce the vulnerability
  • non-destructive exploitation details

If you are able to, please also include:

  • the type of vulnerability, for example, the OWASP category
  • screenshots or logs showing the exploitation of the vulnerability

If you are not sure if the vulnerability is genuine and exploitable, or you have found:

  • a non-exploitable vulnerability
  • something you think could be improved - for example, missing security headers

Then please still contact us via email: alxwrd@googlemail.com.

Guidelines for reporting a vulnerability

When you are investigating and reporting the vulnerability on a Textstat domain or subdomain, you must not:

  • break the law
  • access unnecessary or excessive amounts of data
  • modify data
  • use high-intensity invasive or destructive scanning tools to find vulnerabilities
  • try a denial of service - for example overwhelming a service with a high volume of requests
  • disrupt services or systems
  • tell other people about the vulnerability you have found until we have disclosed it
  • social engineer, phish or physically attack our staff or infrastructure
  • demand money to disclose a vulnerability

Only submit reports about exploitable vulnerabilities via email.

Bug bounty

Unfortunately, Textstat doesn't offer a paid bug bounty programme. Textstat will make efforts to show appreciation to people who take the time and effort to disclose vulnerabilities responsibly.

Code of Conduct

Textstat has a contributors code of conduct, which you can find here: [CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md]
