Supported Versions

Version Supported
0.1.x (current) ✅ Yes

Security fixes are applied to the latest version only. This project is in prototype stage and has not been audited for production use.

Reporting a Vulnerability

Do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.

Use GitHub Security Advisories to report privately. This keeps the disclosure confidential until a fix is ready.

Include in your report:

  • Affected function(s) or file(s)
  • Steps to reproduce or proof of concept
  • Impact assessment (e.g. fund loss, access control bypass, DoS)
  • Suggested fix (optional)

Response Timeline

Milestone Target
Acknowledgement Within 48 hours
Triage & severity classification Within 7 days
Fix for Critical vulnerabilities Within 14 days
Fix for High vulnerabilities Within 30 days
Fix for Medium / Low vulnerabilities Next scheduled release

We will keep you informed throughout the process and coordinate disclosure timing with you before publishing a security advisory.

Severity Definitions

  • Critical — Direct loss of funds, pool drainage, unauthorized token transfers
  • High — Access control bypass, contract upgrade abuse
  • Medium — Denial of service, logic errors without direct fund loss
  • Low — Information disclosure, minor logic issues

Out-of-Scope Items

The following are not eligible for security reports:

  • Frontend UI components and mock data (not yet in this repository)
  • Backend services and APIs (not yet in this repository)
  • Issues requiring physical access to a user's device
  • Social engineering attacks
  • Third-party dependencies unless directly exploitable in the contract context
  • Network-level attacks on Stellar infrastructure
  • Vulnerabilities in already-deprecated or unsupported versions

Bug Bounty

There is no formal paid bug bounty program at this time. Researchers who responsibly disclose valid vulnerabilities will be:

  • Credited in the published security advisory (with permission)
  • Acknowledged in release notes and community channels

This may be revisited as the project matures toward production.

Disclosure Process

  1. Reporter submits via GitHub Security Advisories (private)
  2. Team acknowledges within 48 hours
  3. Team triages severity within 7 days
  4. Fix developed and reviewed based on severity timeline above
  5. Reporter notified before public disclosure
  6. Security advisory published after fix is deployed
  7. Reporter credited (with permission)

There aren't any published security advisories
