Version Supported
Latest ✅

Only the latest version receives security updates. We recommend staying up to date with the main branch during early development.

Private Vulnerability Reporting

Please report vulnerabilities using one of the following channels:

What to Include

When submitting a report, please include:

  • Vulnerability description
  • Steps to reproduce
  • Affected routes, APIs, or components
  • Potential impact
  • Suggested remediation (optional)
  • Contact information for follow-up

Providing detailed reproduction steps helps us resolve issues faster.

Response Timeline

Stage Timeline
Initial acknowledgment Within 72 hours
Validation & assessment Within 5 business days
Patch development Based on severity
Public disclosure Coordinated with reporter

Severity Classification

Severity Examples Response
Critical Authentication bypass, remote code execution, major data exposure Immediate
High Privilege escalation, injection vulnerabilities Prioritized within 48 hours
Medium Information disclosure, CSRF, security misconfiguration Addressed in next scheduled release
Low Minor issues, best-practice violations Tracked and reviewed

In Scope

The following areas are considered in scope for security reporting:

  • Authentication and authorization flows
  • API routes and Server Actions
  • Database access and query patterns
  • Real-time infrastructure and WebSocket communication
  • File uploads and storage handling
  • Environment variable management
  • Dependency vulnerabilities
  • Access control and role-based permissions
  • Input validation and sanitization

Out of Scope

The following are generally considered out of scope:

  • Social engineering attacks
  • Denial of service attacks
  • Spam or rate-limit abuse
  • Vulnerabilities in third-party providers
  • Issues requiring physical access to a device
  • Self-XSS without privilege escalation
  • Theoretical vulnerabilities without proof of concept

Coordinated Disclosure

Fieldly follows a coordinated disclosure process:

  1. Vulnerability is reported privately
  2. Issue is validated and reproduced
  3. A fix is developed and tested
  4. Security patch is released
  5. Public disclosure occurs after remediation

Researchers may be credited for responsible disclosure with permission.

Security Best Practices

Contributors and maintainers should follow these practices:

  • Never commit secrets, credentials, or API keys
  • Use .env.example for environment templates
  • Rotate compromised secrets immediately
  • Keep dependencies updated regularly
  • Validate and sanitize all user input server-side
  • Apply least-privilege access principles
  • Review code for OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities
  • Use secure authentication and authorization flows
  • Avoid exposing sensitive data in logs or error messages

Dependency & Infrastructure Security

Fieldly uses multiple layers of security tooling, including:

  • GitHub Dependabot Alerts
  • Secret Scanning
  • CodeQL Code Scanning
  • Automated dependency monitoring
  • Environment variable isolation
  • Secure server-side validation
