Security Policy

Supported Versions

bbscope follows a rolling release model. Security fixes are applied to the latest released version and to main. Please make sure you are running the most recent release before reporting an issue.

Reporting a Vulnerability

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

Instead, report privately through GitHub's built-in vulnerability reporting:

  1. Go to the repository's Security tab.
  2. Click Report a vulnerability (GitHub Private Vulnerability Reporting).
  3. Provide a clear description, reproduction steps, and impact assessment.

If private reporting is unavailable, contact the maintainers privately before disclosing details publicly.

What to include

  • Affected version / commit.
  • A description of the vulnerability and its impact.
  • Reproduction steps or a proof of concept.
  • Any suggested remediation, if known.

Our commitment

  • We will acknowledge your report as soon as reasonably possible.
  • We will keep you informed about remediation progress.
  • We will credit reporters in the release notes unless you prefer to remain anonymous.

Scope notes

bbscope is a security research tool that talks to third-party bug bounty platforms. A few behaviors are intentional and are not vulnerabilities:

  • TLS certificate verification is skipped only when the user explicitly passes --proxy (to support intercepting proxies such as Burp/ZAP).
  • db shell launches a local psql process; the database password is passed via the PGPASSWORD environment variable rather than the command line.
  • SHA-1 is used solely for TOTP (RFC 6238) two-factor authentication.
