Security Policy

We take security seriously across all TheCodeVerseHub repositories.

Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security reports.

Instead, email: contact@thecodeversehub.tech

Include:

  • A clear description of the issue and affected repository
  • Steps to reproduce (or a proof of concept)
  • Impact assessment (what can an attacker do?)
  • Any suggested fix or mitigation

If the vulnerability involves a secret leak (tokens/keys), rotate the secret immediately and mention what was rotated.

Response expectations

  • Acknowledgement: typically within 72 hours
  • Triage: we’ll confirm scope/impact and propose next steps
  • Fix: timing depends on severity and maintainer availability

If you need a coordinated disclosure timeline, mention it in your email.

Supported repositories

Because this org contains multiple early-stage projects, support level varies. We will prioritize:

  • Projects actively deployed (bots / website)
  • Projects that process user data (even minimal identifiers)

Security notes for contributors

  • Never commit .env files or tokens
  • Prefer minimal permissions for bot tokens and OAuth apps
  • Keep dependencies updated and pinned where possible
