Reporting a Vulnerability

Please report security issues privately via GitHub: open the repository's Security tab and choose Report a vulnerability (private vulnerability reporting).

Do not open a public issue, pull request, or discussion for suspected vulnerabilities.

Include enough detail to reproduce: affected version or commit, environment, steps, observed vs. expected behavior, and any proof-of-concept. A suggested fix is welcome but not required.

What to Expect

This is a small project, so response is best-effort:

  • Acknowledgement: within 7 days.
  • Triage and assessment: within 30 days, including whether the report is accepted, declined, or needs more information.
  • Fix and disclosure: coordinated with the reporter once a patch is available. Reporters are credited in the advisory unless they prefer to remain anonymous.

If a report is declined, you'll get a written explanation of why (out of scope, intended behavior, mitigated elsewhere, etc.).

Scope

In scope:

  • The orbit CLI, runtime, and crates published from this repository.
  • Filesystem-scoping policy bypasses (fsProfile, denyRead, denyModify).
  • Sandbox / process supervision escapes in orbit-exec.
  • Audit log tampering or omission paths.
  • Authentication, authorization, or origin-check bypasses on orbit web serve and orbit mcp serve.
  • Credential handling and redaction for provider keys.

Out of scope:

  • Vulnerabilities in upstream dependencies — please report those upstream. We'll bump the dependency once a fix is available.
  • Issues that require an attacker who already has local code execution as the user running Orbit, or write access to the workspace, unless they cross a documented trust boundary.
  • Social-engineering or phishing of project maintainers.
  • Findings against forks or third-party redistributions of Orbit.
