Reporting a Vulnerability

Report vulnerabilities through GitHub private vulnerability reporting:

https://github.com/Timpan4/kubecove/security/advisories/new

If private reporting is unavailable, open a public issue that asks for a private contact path. Do not include exploit details, credentials, kubeconfig contents, tokens, certificates, or cluster-specific sensitive data in a public issue.

Useful reports include:

  • affected KubeCove version or commit
  • operating system
  • a short impact summary
  • minimal reproduction steps
  • whether real cluster credentials, kubeconfig data, or Kubernetes resources are exposed or modified

Security-sensitive areas include kubeconfig handling, token or certificate exposure, frontend access to shell or filesystem capabilities, Kubernetes operation guardrails, updater signing, and installer or local privilege issues.

Expected handling:

  • The report is triaged privately.
  • Accepted vulnerabilities get a fix on main and, when practical, a beta patch release.
  • Declined reports get a brief reason, such as intended local-only behavior, required Kubernetes RBAC, unsupported old beta, or no demonstrated security impact.
  • Public details should wait until a fix or mitigation is available.
