Reporting a Vulnerability

To report a vulnerability, please go to https://github.com/zip-rs/zip2/security/advisories/new. We'll attempt to:

  • Close the report within 7 days if it's invalid, or if a fix has already been released but some old versions needed to be yanked.
  • Provide progress reports at least every 7 days to the original reporter.
  • Fix vulnerabilities within 30 days of the initial report.

Disclosure

A vulnerability will only be publicly disclosed once a fix is released. At that point, the delay before full public disclosure will be determined as follows:

  • If the proof-of-concept is very simple, or an exploit is already in the wild (whether or not it specifically targets zip, all details will be made public right away.
  • If the vulnerability is specific to zip and cannot easily be reverse-engineered from the code history, then the proof-of-concept and most of the details will be withheld until 14 days after the fix is released and all vulnerable versions are yanked with cargo yank.
  • If a potential victim requests more time to deploy a fix based on a credible risk, then the withholding of details can be extended up to 30 days. This may be extended to 90 days if the victim is high-value (e.g. manages over US$1 billion worth of financial assets or intellectual property, or has evidence that they're a target of nation-state attackers) and there's a valid reason why they cannot deploy the fix as fast as most users (e.g. heavy reliance on an old version's interface, or infrastructure damage in a war zone).
