Security Policy

Reporting a Vulnerability

If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in this crate, please report it privately. Do not open a public GitHub issue.

Please report vulnerabilities via one of the following:

Please include the following in your report:

  • A description of the vulnerability and its impact.
  • Steps to reproduce, or a proof-of-concept.
  • The affected version(s).
  • Any suggested mitigation, if known.

Response Expectations

  • We will acknowledge receipt within 3 business days.
  • We aim to provide an initial assessment within 7 business days.
  • We will keep you informed of progress toward a fix and coordinate a disclosure timeline with you.
  • Typical time-to-fix for confirmed vulnerabilities is 30–90 days depending on severity and complexity.

Disclosure Policy

We follow coordinated disclosure. Once a fix is available:

  1. We will publish a patched release on crates.io and to GitHub Releases.
  2. We will publish a RustSec advisory with a CVE identifier where appropriate.
  3. We will credit the reporter in the advisory unless they prefer to remain anonymous.

We ask that reporters give us a reasonable window (typically 90 days) to release a fix before public disclosure.

Verifying release artefacts

Every v* tag publishes signed release artefacts to GitHub Releases.

  • SHA256SUMS — SHA-256 hashes of every artefact in the release.

  • SHA256SUMS.minisigminisign signature over SHA256SUMS. Verify with the committed minisign.pub:

    minisign -Vm SHA256SUMS -p minisign.pub
    grep <artefact> SHA256SUMS | sha256sum -c
  • SLSA build provenance — every binary archive and native package has a GitHub-signed provenance attestation. Verify with the gh CLI:

    gh attestation verify <artefact> -R dekobon/git-remote-object-store
  • CycloneDX SBOM*.cdx.json is published for both the library (git-remote-object-store) and the CLI (git-remote-object-store-cli).

If either signature check fails, do not install the artefact — file a security report via the channels above.

Scope

This policy covers vulnerabilities in the code of this crate itself. Vulnerabilities in dependencies should be reported to the respective upstream projects; we will update our dependency requirements promptly once upstream fixes are available.

Safe Harbor

We consider security research conducted in good faith under this policy to be authorized. We will not pursue legal action against researchers who:

  • Make a good-faith effort to avoid privacy violations, data destruction, or service disruption.
  • Report vulnerabilities promptly.
  • Do not exploit the vulnerability beyond what is necessary to demonstrate it.
  • Give us reasonable time to respond before public disclosure.
