Reporting a Vulnerability

If you discover a security vulnerability, do not open a public issue.

Please report it privately by emailing the maintainer or using GitHub's private vulnerability reporting.

Include:

  • A clear description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce
  • Potential impact
  • Suggested fix (optional)

You will receive a response within 72 hours. If the vulnerability is confirmed, a patch will be released as soon as possible and you will be credited in the release notes.

Scope

NxtUpdate runs shell commands on your local machine (e.g. brew upgrade, pip install, softwareupdate). Please report any issue that could allow:

  • Arbitrary command execution beyond the intended scope
  • Privilege escalation via the --sudo flag
  • Supply chain issues in the published npm package

Out of Scope

  • Vulnerabilities in third-party package managers (Homebrew, pip, cargo…) — report those upstream
  • Issues requiring physical access to the machine
