Reporting a Vulnerability

The security of FeOx Server is important. If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please report it to me as described below.

Please do NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

Instead, please report them via email to [dev@mehran.dk]. You should receive a response within 48 hours. If for some reason you do not, please follow up via email to ensure I received your original message.

Please include the following information in your report:

  • Type of issue
  • Full paths of source file(s) related to the manifestation of the issue
  • The location of the affected source code (tag/branch/commit or direct URL)
  • Any special configuration required to reproduce the issue
  • Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
  • Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
  • Impact of the issue, including how an attacker might exploit it

Security Considerations

Network Security

  • FeOx Server binds to localhost (127.0.0.1) by default
  • Use --bind 0.0.0.0 with caution in production environments
  • No built-in authentication or TLS support yet - use a reverse proxy if needed

Memory Safety

  • Written in Rust with memory safety guarantees
  • Uses lock-free data structures to prevent race conditions
  • Bounds checking on all buffer operations

Known Limitations

  • No authentication mechanism (all clients have full access)
  • No encryption for data in transit or at rest
  • No command filtering or ACL support
  • Write-behind buffering may result in data loss on crash (see README for details)

Preferred Languages

I prefer all communications to be in English.

Policy

  • I will respond to your report within 48 hours with my evaluation and expected resolution time
  • I will keep you informed of the progress towards resolving the problem
  • Once the security issue is fixed, I will publish a security advisory on GitHub

There aren't any published security advisories
