Security Policy

Reporting a Vulnerability

If you discover a security vulnerability in ShieldScan itself (e.g., a regex pattern that could be exploited, or a way to bypass detection), please report it responsibly:

  • Email: tz2617@columbia.edu
  • Subject: [SECURITY] ShieldScan: <brief description>
  • Response time: We aim to respond within 48 hours

Please do NOT open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.

Scope

This policy covers:

  • The ShieldScan SKILL.md file and its detection patterns
  • False negative patterns (vulnerabilities that ShieldScan should detect but doesn't)
  • The project's own security (e.g., if example files inadvertently contain real secrets)

Disclosure

We follow coordinated disclosure. After a fix is released, we will credit the reporter (unless they prefer to remain anonymous).
